* EveryoneHatesMimes: Apropos is severely creeped out by the decor of Warlord Shank's castle:
-->''It was furnished in a style that I could only term "Early Atrocity." Bleached bones, presumably of former enemies, decorated the walls and not only that, had been incorporated into much of the furniture. The legs of the main dining table were genuine legs, the armchairs, I'm sure you can guess. There were tapestries, but they consisted mostly of depictions of slaughter, slaughter everywhere. Women being raped, children being tossed onto fires, men being crucified. All of it, a celebration of the worst sort of brutality. Suddenly the line of demarcation between the festivals of good and evil became that much clearer for me. When good is celebrating, you don't have an overwhelming urge to run screaming into the night. Well... unless a mime is performing.''

Simple Staff has been disambiguated


* SimpleStaff: Apropos' favored weapon due to his lame leg. Not entirely simple, due to the blade hidden within.

* BreadAndCircuses: When preparing for a day of public executions, Apropos give a decent summary of the trope- "It doesn't matter if the economy is deteriorating, or if the streets are lined with horse manure, or if the nation is in a state of war that is draining bother their resources and the lives of their young men. As long as the people are distracted by entertainment, they can forgive just about anything."

* WhenAllYouHAveIsAHammer: In the opening prologue, Apropos is cuckolding one of the King's knights, who has been sent to negotiate with a village protesting some of the King's taxes. Apropos reflects that the King made the mistake of thinking that his "best" knight, who [[TheBrute excels at carving up enemies on the battlefield]], might [[AssInAmbassador lack some of the necessary skills to be a diplomat]].
