!!Jericho Squad

[[folder: Jericho Squad in General]]

Tropes applying to the Jericho Squad as a whole:
* ChurchMilitant: They serve as the special ops team of Chaplain Corps, tasked to deal with supernatural events.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Each member of Jericho comes from a tragic to downright horrific background due to their abilities.
* MilitaryMage: The Jericho Squad is a top secret combat arm of the United States Army Chaplain Corps, each being a specialist in one of a certain arcane art. The team is tasked by the US Government to handle covert occult warfare and have been titled by the team leader as "witches with guns".
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The members of Jericho Squad are certainly strange and display radically unique personalities and characteristics that each make them a misfit in their own way.
* SupernaturalTeam: The MilitaryMage equivalent, with abilities ranging from HealingHands to PlayingWithFire to MindOverMatter to a TimeyWimeyBall.

'''Main Characters:'''

[[folder:Captain Devin Ross]]
!!Captain Devin Ross
[[quoteright:290:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/2016_05_02.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/SteveBlum

The leader of the Jericho Squad, Ross possesses healing powers. Still somewhat of a skeptic even after the emergence of his magical powers, all the supernatural events he has witnessed, and even after dying and subsequently being forced to inhabit the bodies of his squad mates. Is surprisingly good-humored for a dead guy.

'''Tropes associated with Devin Ross:'''

* ArbitrarySkepticism: As his profile states, he barely believes in his own powers. That he uses on a constant basis.
* BodySurf: After his death, he gains the ability to enter his squadmates' bodies to grant them his healing powers.
* DeadStarWalking: Subverted. He dies, but he's still the main protagonist regardless.
%%* DeadToBeginWith: More or less.
* DeathByOriginStory: Oh, he's quite alive at the start of the mission. A run-in with Leach quickly changes that.
* AFateWorseThanDeath: It is implied that he may eventually start to go mad from being a spirit inhabiting a body other than his own.
* FriendlyGhost: Despite being a disembodied spirit after his death, Ross still maintains his humorous and level-headed demeanor.
* HealingHands: He is unique in that his healing powers transfer to whomever he's possessing at the time, while still being able to use his host's abilities.
* WeCannotGoOnWithoutYou: In the early chapters of the game, if Ross and Rawlings both die, then it's game over.

[[folder:Sergeant Frank Delgado]]
!!Sergeant Frank Delgado
[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJDelgado.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Armando Kennedy

A Pyromancer of Mestizo and Chickasaw descent, Delgado is the Squad's heavy weapons expert. He made a pact with a Chickasaw flame spirit (who he claims is Ababinili), offering his right arm as sacrifice for the its cooperation. He is now the spirit's host, using it to formidable effect in battle. As a result of this reduced dexterity, Delgado favours high-powered weaponry. A very hot-tempered sort of guy with little respect for authority, but has a sense of humor, nonetheless. Is dating Church. Tends to make snarky jokes regarding Black's sexuality. Often clashes with Rawlings.

'''Tropes associated with Frank Delgado:'''

* ArtificialLimbs: Has a kind of replacement on his right arm, which he [[AnArmAndALeg gave up]] as part of his pact.
%%* BattleCouple: With Church.
* BerserkButton: Anything bad happening to Church. When Church first allows Ross to possess her, she warns him to be careful while doing so, "or you'll have to deal with Frank".
%%* {{BFG}}
%%* TheBigGuy
%%* GatlingGood
%%* GratuitousSpanish
%%* HotBlooded
%%* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Him and Church.
%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
%%* KillItWithFire
* PlayingWithFire: Due to making spiritual pacts with Fire Spirits/Demons, he can set others ablaze by releasing the spirits sealed in his right arm.
%%* ScrewDestiny
* SirSwearsALot: He and Black both like to say "fuck" a lot. Well, let's be honest, most people would in that situation.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Lieutenant Abigail "Abbey" Black]]
!!Lieutenant Abigail "Abbey" Black
[[quoteright:181:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJBlack.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/CindyRobinson

The sniper of the Squad, Black possesses telekinetic powers. She has the ability to steer her shots mid-flight. Suffering through an abusive childhood, she rose to become the top sniper in the US Army. Black is a lesbian, but has repressed feelings for Jones in spite of this. Is good friends with Jones and Cole, and is often the butt of Delgado's jokes - the two often engage in witty banter. Is a control freak and a bit of a loner. Has a snarky sense of humor.

'''Tropes associated with Abigail "Abbey" Black:'''

%%* ButchLesbian
%%* ClusterFBomb
* ColdSniper: A mild example - while she is stated to be a bit of a loner, it isn't emphasized much in-game.
%%* DarkAndTroubledPast
%%* DeadpanSnarker
%%* FormFittingWardrobe
%%* FriendlySniper
* GrenadeLauncher: An [[GunAccessories accessory]] to her rifle.
%%* TheLancer
* MindOverMatter: Her power allows her to guide her bullets mid-flight, among other capabilities.
%%* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname
* PsychicNosebleed: She is said to suffer from these if she exerts her powers too much.
* SirSwearsALot: She and Delgado both like to say "fuck" a lot. Well, let's be honest, most people would in that situation.
%%* SniperRifle
* StupidSexyFlanders: According to the in-game character profiles, she has an unrequited crush on [[NiceGuy Jones]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Corporal Simone Cole]]
!!Corporal Simone Cole
[[quoteright:142:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJCole.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Michele Specht

A programmer/numerologist, Cole is the only member of the Squad with no magical powers whatsoever - her gifts are purely intellect and tech based, but practically qualify her as a SufficientlyAdvancedAlien. Compared to the rest of the team, Cole is very polite, quiet and mild-mannered... [[HeroicBSOD most of the time]]. Often confuses her squadmates with TechnoBabble, and is very protective of her equipment. Is mildly autistic and an Atheist, hates being touched, and suffers from claustrophobia and nyctophobia.

'''Tropes associated with Simone Cole:'''

* BadassNormal: She’s the only member of the team that doesn’t possess any supernatural powers, with her combat capabilities coming only from her SMG, her smarts, and the advanced technology she’s packing.
* BreakTheCutie: It is only a brief breakdown, but still notable.
%%* DisabilitySuperpower
* FlatEarthAtheist: Despite being in a SupernaturalTeam, she doesn’t believe in the supernatural. Slightly justified by her powers being purely scientifically based.
%%* FormFittingWardrobe
* HatesBeingTouched: ''Don't'' touch her.
* HeroicBSOD: See BreakTheCutie above - she suffers one of these after being subjected to a nasty mental attack by the Child Crusaders. However, she recovers after Black manages to calm her down.
* JigglePhysics: Just take a look at her chest during the game's intro. It is subtle, but definitely there.
* LudicrousGibs: [[spoiler:She is sadly reduced to this, along with Jones.]]
* KilledMidSentence: [[spoiler:"Sir, I believe he is going to channel our powers against us. However, if you are currently in possession of--"]]
* LipstickLesbian: According to Black.
* PlotlineDeath: [[spoiler:Reduced to LudicrousGibs alongside Jones just before the FinalBoss.]]
* PrecisionFStrike: [[SophisticatedAsHell She only utters the word "fuck" once]], during her HeroicBSOD, when Rawlings activates her BerserkButton.
* RealityWarper: Outright controls space and time to reload her team's weapons.
* TheSpock: She conducts herself in a very clinical and calculating manner, even when facing down a horde of undead monsters. However, as seen in HeroicBSOD, this does have limits.
%%* ShipTease: With Black.
%%* TheSmartGuy
%%* SophisticatedAsHell
%%* TechnoBabble
* ThrowDownTheBomblet: She carries a plentiful supply of explosives that can be used as remote charges, land mines or simple hand grenades.
* TimeMaster: Can use her technology to rewind or slow down local space time.
* TimeyWimeyBall: She manipulates the various weapons of the team by winding them back to a time when they were fully loaded.

[[folder:Captain Xavier Jones]]
!!Captain Xavier Jones
[[quoteright:168:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJJones.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/JamiesonPrice

Ross' second-in-command, Jones is a seer, which allows him brief, albeit often cryptic, glimpses of past or future events. Due to his second sight, he can spot paranormal elements that others cannot. He can also project his consciousness into a separate host body, and can control their actions to a certain degree. A [[NiceGuy good-natured and all-round friendly guy]], he is the least experienced, combat-wise, of the Squad, but his high level of intelligence and his powers make up for it. Is good friends with Ross and Black.

'''Tropes associated with Xavier Jones:'''

%%* BadassBookworm
%%* CastFromHitPoints: See Elite Tweak below.
%%* DeadpanSnarker: On occasion, anyway.
* EliteTweak: Go ahead and possess an enemy in combat, try it. You can then cast Jones' own version pyrokinesis or Blood Ward. The kicker? His version of Blood Ward uses the health of the ''enemy'' to cast it and his possession technique can be performed from distances that would make Black blush.
* LudicrousGibs: [[spoiler:He is sadly reduced to this, along with Cole.]]
%%* NiceGuy
%%* PlotlineDeath
* PrecisionFStrike: [[SophisticatedAsHell He only utters the word "fuck" once]], after Ross is killed by Leach.
* ProphetEyes: Most likely due to his powers.
%%* TheSmartGuy

[[folder:Sergeant Wilhelmina "Billie" Church]]
!!Sergeant Wilhelmina "Billie" Church
[[quoteright:229:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJChurch.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/KateHiggins

The most troubled member of the Squad, Church is able to cast powerful wards, enchantments and banishments through the ritual of [[BloodMagic drawing her own blood and writing potent sigils with it]]. This comes with an [[CastFromHitpoints obvious physical price]]. Her traumatic past has left her with numerous mental problems (although they are currently under control), [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes a fear of snakes]], and a massive BerserkButton. While she was at one point suicidal and introverted, she has become a lot more extroverted and confident after being taken in by the D.O.W.. Prefers to use [[DoesntLikeGuns swords over guns]], although she does [[SwordAndGun use both]]. Is dating Delgado.

'''Tropes associated with Wilhelmina "Billie" Church:'''

* AbusiveParents: Her ''entire family'' abused and exploited her.
%%* BattleCouple: With Delgado.
* BerserkButton: Address her as "Wilhelmina" at your own risk.
%%* BloodMagic
%%* CastFromHitpoints
%%* DarkAndTroubledPast
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:She is the one who lands the final blows on the Firstborn.]]
%%* DoNotCallMePaul
* DoesntLikeGuns: Although she is required to use one by the US Army.
%%* FormFittingWardrobe
%%* HotBlooded
%%* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Her and Delgado.
* JigglePhysics: During her battle stance, mostly.
%%* TheLancer
* TheMusketeer: Dual wields a katana and a machine pistol while fighting.
* NamedWeapons: Her sword Nodachi and her pistol Kenju. Amusingly enough, Nodachi means "Greatsword/Field Sword" while Kenju is simply the Japanese for "pistol".
%%* {{Ninja}}
%%* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname
%%* OohMeAccentsSlipping
%%* ParentalIncest
* RapeAsBackstory: It's only part of her backstory and just one of the reasons why she has issues, but it's still worth noting.

[[folder:Father Paul Rawlings]]
!!Father Paul Rawlings
[[quoteright:191:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJRawlings.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/JamesHoran

A priest and the oldest member of the Squad, Rawlings has served as a Chaplain in the military, and is a veteran of war. He wields two Desert Eagles, and has the ability to heal squadmates and to curse enemies. He is also a powerful exorcist. He has a troubled past which he will not talk about, but it haunts him to this day. It is strongly implied that he knows [[FindingJudas a lot more about the Squad's mission than he is letting on]]. His strong personality often leads to him clashing with Delgado.

'''Tropes associated with Paul Rawlings:'''

%%* TheAtoner: Implied.
%%* BadassLongcoat
%%* BadassPreacher
%%* CoolOldGuy
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Implied to be [[{{Squick}} none-too-savoury]].
%%* FindingJudas
* {{Hand Cannon}}s [[GunsAkimbo Akimbo]]: He uses two .357 caliber Desert Eagles ''simultaneously!''
* HealingHands: His primary ability is healing squadmates.
* MayDecemberRomance: Implied-- by their actions and his words-- to have had one of these with Muriel.
--->'''Rawlings''': [[spoiler: (''discovering Muriel's mangled body'')]] I sent her here. I thought we needed space. I was afraid someone... might find out.
* PedophilePriest: [[spoiler:Lichthammer]] heavily implied that he committed pedophilic acts in his past. That being said, it is only ever mentioned by [[spoiler: Lichthammer, who also claimed that Billie [[{{Squick}} wanted Rawlings to rape her like her father had]]]], and is never brought up again once she is defeated.
%%* {{Pornstache}}
* PrecisionFStrike: [[SophisticatedAsHell He only utters the word "fuck" once]], just before the Squad battles the Firstborn.

!Antagonists
[[folder:The Firstborn]]
!!The Firstborn
[[quoteright:165:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJFirstborn.png]]
The first being created by God. He gave it great power but, disturbed by His own creation, He entombed it at the beginning of time in the city of Al-Khali. Naturally, the Firstborn is not happy, and its only goal is to attain freedom and destroy all of humankind, which it despises for being God's chosen children. The Firstborn deceives the Squad over the course of the game and taints Ross' visions and dreams, much like it has done over the years it has spent in its prison to many other individuals.

'''Tropes associated with the Firstborn:'''

%%* BaldOfEvil
%%* BigBad
* CreepyChild: Its true form is never shown.
* EvilSoundsDeep: Only played partially straight; its voice often has a deep undertone, and this is when it sounds the most sinister, but switches constantly between this, a childlike trill and a female voice midsentence. See VoiceOfTheLegion below.
%%* FinalBoss
* HumanoidAbomination: An extremely powerful, sanity-breaking, reality-warping entity in the form of a malformed, genderless child.
%%* LoadBearingBoss
* ParentalAbandonment: The parent is God and the Abandonment was getting booted from creation (and thus reality) itself.
%%* ProphetEyes
* RealityWarper: The Pyxis is the little corner outside reality where it's made itself home, and inside it, reality is all but it's plaything.
%%* SealedEvilInACan
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: [[spoiler:"Silence, ''bitch''!" '''* SPLAT* ''']]

[[folder:Arnold Leach]]
!!Arnold Leach
[[quoteright:211:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJLeach.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/{{Jim Cummings|1952}}

Leach is a former D.O.W. member turned {{Cult}} leader, dedicated to the worship and release of the Firstborn. He and his cult killed themselves in a horrific ritual suicide, opening the Breach once again, and they were all subsequently resurrected into Firstborn-warped monstrosities. Leach shows a deep hatred for Ross, has a mocking sense of humour, and possesses psychic powers.

'''Tropes associated with Arnold Leach:'''

%%* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking
%%* BodyHorror
* CameBackWrong: Though he was evil to begin with, after committing suicide alongside his cultists in order to open the Pyxis he’s resurrected by the Firstborn as a hideous winged monster.
* {{Cult}}: Heads one known as the Brotherhood Of The Dark Rapture, who then proceeded to commit atrocities across the world in order to amass enough negative energy to open a breach into the Pyxis, contributing to the remainder by committing mass suicide.
* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler:See HeelFaceTurn below.]]
* EyeScream: His eyes are held open by cords of some description that wrap around his head.
* FaceHeelTurn: Used to be a D.O.W. member.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:...But then seems to turn back at the end of the game, when, upon realizing that he was nothing more than the Firstborn's pawn, decides to take the responsibility of killing it.]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: After a change of heart upon realising the Firstborn’s duplicity, he sacrifices his life to destroy it.]]

[[folder:Hanne Lichthammer]]
!!Hanne Lichthammer
[[quoteright:179:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJLichthammer.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/SusanSilo

The psychic commander of the Geheimnisvoll Abwehrmacht, an elite army of psychic German soldiers which is heavily tied with the Nazi hierarchy. Lichthammer is highly sadomasochistic and spiteful, with a penchant for both physical and mental torture, and holds little regard for human life. She is an incredibly powerful telepath, and, upon her transformation by the Firstborn, also gains the ability to teleport and control the flies, as well as seeing an increase in her already strong powers. Often uses her telepathy for mental torture, to control her army, and to expose people's innermost fears and demons.

'''Tropes associated with Hanne Lichthammer:'''

%%* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking
%%* TheBaroness
%%* BodyHorror
* CameBackWrong: Wronger. She was evil to begin with, but now her appearance reflects it.
%%* ChewingTheScenery
%%* DarkActionGirl
%%* DemonicPossession
* EntitledBastard: She begs Church to spare her life, in spite of all of her evil deeds, numerous attempts to slaughter the Squad, and previous [[KickTheDog dog-kicking]] of Church. (The fact that the Squad needs to spill her blood to progress to the next Time Slice doesn't hurt, either.)
%%* EvilLaugh
%%* EyepatchOfPower
* FanDisservice: Though she is, believe it or not, a source of titillation for some players... Considering [[Creator/CliveBarker the man behind the game,]] the interplay of sexuality was almost certainly intentional.
* FlunkyBoss: She sends her soldiers to fight the Squad shortly before she decides to take them on herself.
* FormFittingWardrobe: Complete with [[ImpossiblyLowNeckline epic boobs]]. Ladies and gentlemen, meet the new sponsor of tit tape.
* {{Ghostapo}}: Although not an official division of the Wehrmacht or the SS, her occult group, the [[GratuitousGerman Geheimnisvoll Abwehrmacht]] was essentially this.
* GroinAttack: She expresses a desire to do very... nasty things to Rawlings' manly parts. Also, if you look closely, her crotch appears to be bloody and mutilated.
* HandicappedBadass: Kicks a lot of ass despite losing an eye. Could be a JustifiedTrope due to her demonic resurrection, although it is never made clear whether the loss of her eye happened while she was still human or not.
* HateSink: She's a psychic Nazi commander who guards the path of souls, littered in the countless bodies of her victims over the years in her service to the First Born. When confronted by the Jericho squad, Lichthammer continues to show her sadism in combat and even mocks the sexual abuse suffered by one member in her past.
%%* ImpossiblyLowNeckline: And ''how''!
* KickTheDog: The way she uses details of Church's abusive past to mock both her and Rawlings.
%%* LargeHam
* LightningBruiser: Despite her mutilated state, she’s extremely quick on her feet, packs a powerful punch and can take a massive amount of damage to subdue.
%%* LeanAndMean
%%* MindRape
%%* NighInvulnerability
%%* NoIndoorVoice
%%* PrecisionFStrike
* PressXToNotDie: The scene with her [[spoiler:exorcism]] is the longest interactive cutscene in the game, requires pretty quick reflexes (OH GOD SHE'S BITING ME ARGH GOD GET HER OFF) and is responsible for causing some players no small amount of frustration. It isn't really that hard once you get the hang of it, but it bears mentioning.
* ProphetEyes: Well, ''eye'', but, still.
%%* PsychicPowers
%%* RecurringBoss
%%* {{Telepathy}}
%%* ThoseWackyNazis
%%* TortureTechnician
* VillainsWantMercy: Pleads for her life just before Church kills her. Unsurprisingly, it doesn't help.
* WaifFu: [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] due to her resurrection by the Firstborn.

[[folder:Bishop Maltheus St. Claire]]
!!Bishop Maltheus St. Claire
[[quoteright:128:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJMaltheus.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/DeeBradleyBaker

A cruel and insane bishop, Maltheus assembled an army of children to fight in the Crusades with the Pope's consent, claiming their innocence and Christianity would protect them from harm. Whether he actually believed this or not is never specified. He saw Al-Khali through Firstborn-induced visions, believing it to be the Garden of Eden. When his child army was horribly slaughtered by the Saracens, Maltheus fled to the safety of the chapel. Unfortunately for him, the vengeful ghosts of the children took to haunting the chapel, and, naturally, things didn't end well for him. The blood of the children was sufficient enough to open the Breach, and Maltheus, like all the others, was raised from the dead as a monster.

'''Tropes associated with Maltheus St. Claire:'''

%%* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking
* BilingualBonus: A lot of his battle cries are in Latin.
%%* BodyHorror
* CameBackWrong: Though he was completely insane to begin with.
%%* ChewingTheScenery
%%* CorruptChurch: He's part of it.
* DeathByIrony: Not just killed once, but ''twice'', by the spirits of the Child Crusaders.
* FlunkyBoss: Although, in a minor subversion, said "flunkies" are also busy attacking ''him'', but that doesn't mean the Squad are exempt from their wrath.
* GroinAttack: If you look closely, his crotch appears to be bloody and possibly mutilated.
* HateSink: An insane bishop and implied pedophile who convinced the pope to grant him an army of children for a crusade, only for them to be slaughtered alongside with him. As a spirit in service to the First Born Maltheus traps the children's wrathful, tormented souls in his chambers and has the audacity to curse the Jericho squad for calling him out on the monster he is.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: After a prolonged fight with the Jericho squad, a weakened Maltheus orders the spirits of his child crusaders to come to his aid, only for them to turn on and lash him to death before retreating.
%%* HolierThanThou
* KnightTemplar: At about the same time as the TropeNamer no less and for much the same reason. Tellingly, said TropeNamer considered him a madman and set out to stop him. They were even the ones to close the Rift when he opened it, though they've since [[FallenHero been consumed by the Firstborn]] or imprisoned by those who have and gone over the DespairEventHorizon.
%%* MeaningfulName
%%* NighInvulnerability
%%* NoIndoorVoice
* OneHitKill: Better hope you've got a couple of squad members outside the radius of his Black Rose attack.
* PedophilePriest: His dialogue implies he had an unhealthy obsession with the children under his care. Also, his unlockable dossier says that he had "appetites" that he had trouble resisting and made him worry that he wasn't going to Heaven.
* RealEventFictionalCause: Zigzagged. The crusade that Maltheus led into the Middle East was known as the Children's Crusade in RealLife and was a real event, though it turned out even worse in-universe- In RealLife, said crusade was not sanctioned by the church (and thus was not a real crusade), and members of the crusade who stuck it out until the end were either shipwrecked or sold into slavery (events which are both mentioned in the game's unlockable dossiers); Maltheus himself didn't exist, nor did the slaughter of his charges happen in RealLife.
%%* SinisterMinister: Definitely.
* WasOnceAMan: He was once an unhinged bishop that led himself and his ChildSoldiers to the deaths in the Crusades. Now he’s a towering UndeadAbomination lurking in the depths of the Templars’ castle.

[[folder:Governor Cassus Vicus]]
!!Governor Cassus Vicus
[[quoteright:197:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/CBJVicus.png]]
->'''Voiced By:''' Creator/MichaelBell

An obscene, perverted, [[ImAHumanitarian cannibalistic]] Roman Governor, Vicus is highly hedonistic and incredibly obese. He was banished to Al-Khali by [[EvenEvilHasStandards Caligula himself]], as the latter did not want Vicus' excesses to rival his own. After opening the Breach after being promised endless orgies and parties in his dreams by the Firstborn, Vicus was, like everyone else, transformed into a monster. After spending literally thousands of years indulging himself in his endless perversions, Vicus has no intention of letting anyone spoil his party. He exhibits mild psychic abilities.

'''Tropes associated with Cassus Vicus:'''

%%* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking
* BaldOfEvil: Exaggerated: his body appears to be totally devoid of hair.
* BodyHorror: His stomach looks like it's literally exploded and been sewed back together.
* TheCaligula: As governor of Al-Khali, he used his power to indulge his fetish for rape and slaughter.
* CameBackWrong: Though he was evil to begin with, so its more of a case that he came back '''worse'''.
%%* DepravedBisexual: Implied.
* FatBastard: He's ''massively'' obese and a totally irredeemable {{Sadist}}.
* FullFrontalAssault: Wears not a single stitch of clothing, as a sign of his perversion and decadence.
* FauxAffablyEvil: Upon confronting the Jericho squad, he carries himself with the demeanour of a jolly old BigFun. All the while contemplating about what horrors he should do to them as he waddles down a hallway encrusted with gore and feces. And that’s discounting the fact that he was also leading them into a trap at the time.
* HandicappedBadass: Well, sort of - while he can deal out a lot of damage in spite of barely being able to move due to his obesity, he ''does'' require some help with it. Possibly [[JustifiedTrope justified]] due to his demonic resurrection.
* HateSink: A bloated Roman aristocrat who sates his appetites on the endless suffering of his immortal subjects, Vicus regularly has them crucified, defiled and cannibalized for his own delights. Aroused by his combat with the Jericho squad, Vicus' vile nature is symbolized in the waste he spews forth during their fight with him.
* TheHedonist: He just wants to be able to "feast and fuck and kill", without consequence.
* HellSeeker: He's arguably the only one who actively sought his way into the Pyxis without ending up regretting it. While Maltheus is constantly being tormented by his children, Lichthammer finds herself locked in eternal combat against Blackwatch and Leach ends up being nailed to a wall by the Firstborn itself, Vicus had all his dreams fulfilled and all his wishes granted when he entered the Pyxis.
* ImAHumanitarian: As his pre-Pyxis history would tell, he’s no stranger to the taste of human flesh.
* LargeAndInCharge: Happens to be large both vertically ''and'' horizontally.
%%* LargeHam
* LivingForeverIsAwesome: 2000 years of cannibalistic BDSM parties, and he's far from bored with his life in the Pyxis.
%%* PsychicPowers
* VillainousGlutton: His appetite for fine food is just as big as his appetite for pain and suffering.
