* '''Parodied''': Wurg decorates his epic waist length beard with the heads of his enemies, and [[HairyHammerspace uses it to store all his possessions.]]
* '''Deconstructed''': Wurg's beard is constantly pulled on by his enemies, and he looses several fights because of this disadvantage. And between tradition demanding he have a beard and the lack of decent razor blades and a mirror, it's not he could go clean shaven. Unable to slaughter hordes of enemies, the SorcerousOverlord treats him as a joke.
* '''Reconstructed''':
** But it still protects his face from the bitter cold. Wurg finds that if he puts the fangs and claws of beasts he has slain in his beard, anyone trying to grab it will get their hand torn up, and his beard is no longer a disadvantage. He goes on to slay his way to the top of a mountain of corpses with a hot naked chick clinging to his legs, and the SorcerousOverlord develops an intense fear of bearded men.
** An enemy grabs Wurg's beard to try to slow him down. Wurg grins, says "A lot of men have tried that before you," and instagibs him.
