brainwashed daughter Chastity who will only do as the Bible says.



* {{Hypocrite}}: Chastity comes off as one. She defends the Bible wholeheartedly (as she was brainwashed), but she hasn't even read the Bible herself and so has no idea what the Bible is saying.

Chastity comes off as one. She defends the Bible wholeheartedly (as she was brainwashed), but she hasn't even read the Bible herself and so has no idea what the Bible is saying.
** The Paradise Pentecostal Church is also this, as they claim that Christianity is entirely true in spite of its mythological folklore of superstitious beings while D&D is unbelievable fantasy.
* InsaneTrollLogic: The Dungeons & Dragons re-education camp is completely based on this:this:
** The D&D giant is a fantasy, but Goliath the giant is fact. Goliath is presented as the D&D giant but only without the helmet.
** D&D's fire-breathing dragon is fantasy, but a 7-headed dragon coming out of the lake of fire is fact.
** The Witch of Endor (summons ghosts) is a fact, but the Hag of Neverwinter who summons wraiths is bullshit.

* AmbiguouslyGay: Satan himself, as he enjoys playing as a very feminine girl (Wandalind Fairyheart) and Satan defends her mental and intellectual strengths above her physical ones.
* BaitAndSwitch: Satan and Randall both have weapons materialize out of thin air into their hands, then they charge at each other. Then they sit down onto a table, drop their weapons and start playing Dungeons and Dragons.
* BoomerangBigot: [[spoiler: Preacher Paul is very homophobic, but then we see at the end that he himself is gay and is married to another man. Even so, despite being the preacher of a Pentecostal Church, Paul admits that he doesn't really believe religion is real and is rather surprised that Satan did pop out of the game as he prophesized.]]
* BrainlessBeauty: Chastity, Paul's beautiful blonde daughter, who has been mercilessly brainwashed by her father into accepting Christianity and the Bible literally to the letter. Chastity is incapable of forming her own opinions and only does what the Bible tells her to do, which Bullet exploits so that he can use Chastity as his own prostitute or sex doll.
* CorruptChurch: The Paradise Pentecostal Church is viciously homophobic and hostile towards anyone who plays Dungeons & Dragons, even sending them to a re-education camp.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Chastity comes off as one. She defends the Bible wholeheartedly (as she was brainwashed), but she hasn't even read the Bible herself and so has no idea what the Bible is saying.
