* CompleteMonster: Acting Commander of Five Hundred Neshok, an Arcanan Intelligence officer who gleefully uses his position and the excuse of "ensuring the security of the expeditionary force" to justify brutally beating and torturing Sharonian prisoners and killing other prisoners in cold blood. In one case, he murders two Sharonian prisoners to single out a Voice among them (the latter of which he kills simply because he ''lied'' to Neshok) and, despite the fact that he knows full well that Voices cannot transmit through portals and verifies this with a lie-detecting spell, then shoots the Voice in question.
* StrangledByTheRedString: When [[spoiler: Darcel and Alazon]] are thrown together by their psionic powers the first time they meet. Literally the first words either says to the other are "Oh dear. This is an unexpected complication."
