** ''Sausage volcanoes.'' Yes, sausage volcanoes. They can randomly spawn at any given time and erupt sausages for five or so seconds, and the sausages explode where they land. Equally deadly to player and enemy alike.

* AxCrazy: The Viking and the Pyromancer both, the former of which likes to talk about sacrificing his enemies and axe-murdering them, while the latter likes to talk about things fire does.
** For example, a few of the Pyromancer's lines are:
*** "The sweet aroma...of ''burnt flesh''."
*** "Everyone burns...a little ''differently''."
*** "Nothing satisfies like the ''flames of agony''."



* BloodKnight: The Viking. Much if his dialogue involves him eagerly anticipating bloodying his axe and sacrificing his enemies to Odin.

There's actually quite a few relics that amplify one or two of your stats while lowering another, but Damien's Seal is particularly worth mentioning based on its effect: ''+200'' Strength, but ''-50'' Swiftness and Armor.

''Hero Siege'' is an indie action Roguelike by Panic Art Studios.

The Kingdom of Tarethial has been taken over by the demon lord Damien and his army of monsters. As one of four classes, it falls to you to fight through the kingdom, destroy Damien and his army, and save the land.

That's the general plot, but the core aspect is the gameplay. The game consists of 4 acts, each of which as 5 subareas. In each area, the player must fight through numerous waves of increasingly deadly monsters while also contending with traps and hazards such as spike plates, cannons, and crushing blocks. Once enough waves have been completed, the player must fight a boss before moving on to the next area. Along the way, the player can collect numerous powerups that can greatly enhance their stats and grant them new powers.

!!This game provides examples of:

* TheBerserker: The Viking. He even has a skill named this that makes him attack faster the less health he has.
* BloodKnight: The Viking.
* DemBones: Skeletons are a common enemy.
* DishingOutDirt: Gurag, the end boss of Act 1.
* EliteMook: More powerful versions of normal enemies will occasionally spawn during a wave.
* TheGrimReaper: Appears as the end boss of Act 2.
* JokeWeapon: The Flyswatter. Your character even says "Fuck this game..." when you pick it up.
* TheLegionsOfHell
* PowerAtAPrice: The Damien's Seal artifact greatly increases your attack, but severely lowers your defense.
* RandomEvent: Occasionally at the beginning of a wave, a statue of either an angel or a demon will appear somewhere on the map. The angel statue always gives you a permanent stat bonus or an artifact, while the demon statue can give you more powerful artifacts...but also has the chance of ''lowering'' one of your stats.
** In addition, sometimes a Dungeon or Crypt will spawn. The artifacts that can be found here tend to be more valuable than the ones found after defeating a boss.
* ShoutOut: Many.
** The Marksman's selection quote is a variant of the infamous [[{{Skyrim}} Arrow to the Knee]] meme.
** [[spoiler:Finding the Demonic Sheep artifact allows you access to a Secret Sheep Level, a homage to both the Cow Level and Whimsyshire of ''{{Diablo}}''.]]
