1* Torneko Taloon! The mighty LethalJokeCharacter!
2** His manner of introduction in Chapter 3, from a meta viewpoint. After getting a glimpse at playing through some of the adventures of other characters in the world, from a lone knight searching for the whereabouts of kidnapped children, to a RebelliousPrincess wishing to take part in a fighting tournament, Torneko starts his adventure off by... [[UnexpectedGameplayChange working part-time at a weapons shop selling items to customers]]. And then going back to home to his wife and child, resting for the next day. Essentially speaking, you're finally getting a glimpse at the every-day life of an NPC at an items shop.
3** Also, there are a few times in the DS version when he appraises female clothing, like the Magical Skirt, that brings out a few laughs. The way he appraises the Dream Blade and pretends to fall asleep is priceless!
4** Asking him to appraise horse manure will, unsurprisingly, annoy the [[{{Pun}} crap out of him]].
5--->'''Torneko:''' Fer the love o' - What are y'at, stickin' that in me face!? 'Tis about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Now get up the yard with it!
6* When you talk to a minidemon in Pharos Beacon, he says, in FangThpeak, that Torneko has escaped, and then tries to go after him... ''[[TooDumbToLive by casting Zoom/Return instead of Evac/Outside, knocking himself unconscious by a bump to his head]]!''
