* JerkassWoobie: Kalus. Her beloved father disappeared when was only three and her mother neglected her in favor of her adopted sister. In-game dialogue from her other family members suggest that they didn't care much about her either. Kalus tried to remain dignified and stoic and worked hard to prove herself as a dutiful royal but she still felt resentment for this treatment. Later, just a few days before she was to inherit the Elemental Warriors, she and Kameo almost damaged the Element of Power and their mother blamed Kalus for the whole incident even though Kameo was just as, if not more responsible. Her mother uses this as a flimsy pretext to immediately disinherit her and to quickly declare Kameo as the new heir. This was the last straw for Kalus who then frees Thorn and helps him kidnap her whole family out of revenge. [[spoiler:Its later revealed that she was manipulated by the Mystic into doing this and she chooses to redeem herself by returning Thorn to stone, sacrificing herself in the process.]]
* ObviousJudas: The Mystic is a [[ReptilesAreAbhorrent creepy lizard woman]] who from her very first scene acts shady, manipulative and almost every other line that comes out of her mouth is a FreudianSlip or an offhand comment betrays her evil intentions.

* PresumedFlop: Kameo was not a massive success but it sold well for a new IP being positioned launching on a new console. However, it sales were well below the high expectations of Microsoft executives and helped contribute to the reputation that Rare were in a slump.

* UncertainAudience: A game starring a cute elf girl with fairy wings trying to find success on the Xbox 360 in 2005. As George Andreas put it: "It was a game with a fairy for an audience that likes shooting and killing things."

* VanillaProtagonist: IGN and [=GameSpot=]'s reviews of the game criticized Kameo's design and personality as being boring and generic in comparison to the rest of the game's more colorful cast.
