* MagnificentBastard: [[VillainProtagonist Jareth Satoris]] is the ruthless captain of the ''Purge'' Imperial prison barge, who has [[NobleDemon cultivated an image of being far more cruel and ruthless than he truly is]]. Renowned for keeping some of the Empire's worst prisoners in line with his tactics, Sartoris is the first person to realize the errors being made by his superiors in handling a viral outbreak, and quickly deduces that the virus is transforming the populace of the ''Purge'' into ravenous zombies. Stoically blasting his way through many enemies before killing and swiping the escape pod codes from his boss, Sartoris later outwits a group of cannibalistic Imperial survivors of the outbreak. Though bitten by the zombies and [[YourDaysAreNumbered soon to die]] from infection, Sartoris uses his last moments to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice himself]] and save the lives of other passengers, imparting comforting words to Trig Longo about his father as Sartoris finally accepts the remorse he holds for killing Trig's father.

As soon as it ends it's never brought up again, and just raises questions as to where they came from, how they got there, and if they're the same Wookiee family Trig and Kale saw earlier.

* {{Squick}}: The novel is loaded with it, mostly through the descriptions of peoples' deaths and certain plot points in the latter half, most notably of which are the [[spoiler: cannibalistic Imperial survivors that try to eat Sartoris]] and [[spoiler: the appropriately-dubbed 'skin hill' that Trig finds made of limbs, corpses and zombified remains - including his brother who has [[BodyHorror half his head missing]].]]

* VillainDecay: Used with Sartoris, who starts as a sadistic mo'fo with a grudge against Papa Longo, but ends becoming a temporary ally to the survivors who tells Trig that his father was a good man. Keeping in mind that he beat the everliving crap out of Papa Longo, and was even implied to have enjoyed it.
