Inhabitants of the 13th Demon Lord's dungeon.

     Amdusias 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cias_5.jpg
Lookie, Paimon! See what I made!
The new-born demon lord. The 13th Demon Lord of the world.
  • Affectionate Nickname: People close to him call him "Cias."
  • Amnesiac Hero: While he did manage to bring with him all the technical knowledge he learned on Earth, everything else was forgotten, his country of origin, his friends, family, even his name. He occasionally remembers someone's name to go with a specific technical note or accomplishment but then gets flustered when he doesn't remember who to associate with the name in question.
  • Bathtub Bonding: His favorite part of the day is going into his shared bath and ogling the female retainers he surrounds himself with. The women in question actively fight for the right to be included!
  • Be Careful What You Wish For: He cries out that he's always dreamed of sharing a bath with a beautiful naked woman, then Paimon comes in, and he gets an Unsettling Gender-Reveal. Fortunately for him, Paimon actually wants and likes him ogling her in the bath, getting rather pouty when he suggested they bathe separately.
  • Benevolent Boss: His underlings have nothing to fear from him. He seeks out their input, never orders them to do things he wouldn't do himself, if he were able, and as long as they're honest, hard-working, and faithful, rewards them with as much luxury as he can. In fact, the orcs who are in charge of tending the nets to filter the incoming sea-water get first pick of the seafood for their own perusal.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: He's a total sweetheart who, given a choice, wouldn't harm a fly. Antagonize him and you'll find yourself wishing for a quick and painful death.
  • Blessed with Suck: "God" blesses him with powerful magic skills, a huge MP and HP tank, but leaves him with poor attack and defense stats and a magical affinity of 0. So while he has the tools to be a mighty magical and partial powerhouse, he doesn't have the required ability to use them! At least not anywhere outside the dungeon, and even in the dungeon has to set up some very tricky and expensive special measures. Even when he does manage to get a kill in the dungeon, he only gets 1 point of exp per kill, making level-ups a real bitch to earn.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: He clearly loves to ogle the naked bodies of his retainers, guests, and any other pretty lady who manages to find her way to his bath, and that's where it stops. He never, ever lays a hand on them without their explicit, fully-informed consent, unless he's saving their lives.
  • Combat Pragmatist: He never fights battles himself if he can avoid it, because he's a total pushover outside of the dungeon abilities. He lets his dungeon take care of any invaders, given the chance.
  • Covert Pervert: Though he does indeed enjoy ogling the women in his sphere of influence while he's sharing a bath with them, he makes it a point not to show it. From the P.O.V. of several of them, he talks to them in the bath exactly the same as he does when everyone's fully clothed, he doesn't make lewd gestures or sounds, and he does not leer. He does occasionally blush and apologize, but this just adds to his charm.
  • Culture Clash: When he tells those who challenge his dungeon "I can't guarantee your life, go home," he's giving them a genuine warning. The people of this new world, however, hear a provocation "you can't beat me, coward, go home with your tail between your legs so I can laugh at you." The invading demon lord and his army took the "challenge" and died regretting it. The human delegation that came to probe him out were smarter and offered diplomacy; they went away, alive, with some much needed trade goods, and said demon lord's head, both as a good-will gesture and for verification. In exchange, Princess Tisha stayed behind to keep an eye on him and snuggle him like crazy, to Paimon's displeasure.
  • Deus ex Machina: The sudden arrival of his dungeon blockade, from coast to coast, saved an orc village, at least in part, and the ogre later known as Paimon from a massive swarm of red-cap gnomes.
  • Did Not Think This Through: His first dungeon projects were building an above ground temple, a large mixed bath, and sourcing his water from the ocean. Not only was he chewed out for the first two, but he gets laughed at for the last when the water, which took 25 hours to arrive, is, to the surprise of nobody but himself, salty and full of living critters. Fortunately, he learns from his impulsive mistake and sets up a desalination plant and filters out the sea-life which he turns into food and fertilizer so he can grow crops for his workers and guests.
  • Ditzy Genius: He's actually highly intelligent, with the final design of his dungeon being Simple, yet Awesome, and being all but impenetrable, unless he specifically invites you in, yet he suffers from Skewed Priorities so badly, his first act was to build an above-ground temple and a huge Japanese bath before he secured food, water, and defenses against both human and demon armies he knew were coming. He gets royally chewed out for it.
  • Endearingly Dorky: The ladies love him because he's sweet, doting, and very, very socially clumsy.
  • Enfante Terrible: For a good guy! He has no problems dreaming up particularly vicious and sadistic dungeon corridors, and immediately after Paimon bashed the 11th demon lord to death, he's not the slightest bit squeamish about walking up and chopping the blighter's head off, with a smile, and handing it over to Princess Tisha. The princess, who spent most of her life on the battlefield, or near it, was unnerved.
  • Exact Words: He promises an invading rival Demon Lord that should the invader manage to get past his dungeon, he will allow himself to be struck once, without resistance. He does indeed keep this promise, but he never mentioned he wouldn't have an Attack Reflector that would send the damage right back at his attacker. The invading demon lord fell for it, hook, line, and sinker.
  • Exotic Weapon Supremacy: The weapon he feels most comfortable with, and designs for himself, is the Shotel, as shown in the page image. This curved sword is rare even in its country of origin, Ethiopia.
  • Good Is Not Soft: Harm even one of his True Companions, and he won't hesitate to do whatever it takes to eliminate the threat, even if that means destroying the entire country it came from!
  • Intrepid Merchant: Once he's dealt with being probed by both the human and demon sides, he takes on the task of engaging in trade with the nearby kingdoms for the things he lacks, beds, vegetables, etc., in return for selling his products, sea-salt, armor, and weapons, the last of which will always be in demand because even if the war ended immediately, the world still has Always Chaotic Evil monsters spawn wherever there's an abundant mana pool, and those have to be dealt with by force.
  • Limited Wardrobe: Justified. He was "born" with his school uniform, and the dungeon menu will only provide that outfit, no other, whether he's choosing for himself or someone else. Fortunately, the uniforms he provides for others does change to fit their bodies.
  • Loophole Abuse: A firm believer in it.
    • His first dungeon corridor had Andre confounded because all it had was a few "harmless" pit traps that anyone could climb out of, with sufficient effort, and a corridor with torches about every 10 meters or so. (The most closely packed he can make.) After a few minutes of struggle, the 22 red-caps trapped in said dungeon died, of hypoxia.
    • When the #1 and #2 demon lords left after revealing that they could simply fly over his dungeon, Andre puts forward two proposals to counter such a glaring weakness, both way, way too expensive to implement and maintain, either lose all the arable land, and the farms, by covering the dungeon with a roof, or set up a massive field of turbulence in the sky. Amdusias combines both proposals in a truly clever and unique way. The dungeon walls may be indestructible, but nothing says they have to be opaque, or made of stone. Amdusias builds a labyrinth above his arable land inside a floating crystal palace, held aloft by gravity manipulation, which still allows the sunlight to come through (not to mention being very aesthetically pleasing) and while gravity in the maze is 10X normal as a result, trying to bypass it will subject you to gravity 100X normal. Demon Lord Cochon Kanzeir Gurruni learned this one the hard way when he tried to Zerg Rush an army of fliers at Amdusias, only to watch them all fall to the ground, dead, almost instantly.
  • Mundane Utility: The best aspects of his dungeon are not its lethal traps, but the kitchen and the bath. He uses the dungeon to produce ultra-pure water, heated, for bathing, which strangely enough is not potable, and the kitchen uses heat, light, and even space-time magic to cook, store, and preserve meals. Rather than re-heating a meal, he puts it into a device that rewinds time to when it was hot and fresh. His bath area has a danger-rank of 3/10, while the kitchen has a rank of 5/10. For reference 10/10 is the crystal cathedral floating labyrinth.
  • An Offer You Can't Refuse: "God" only "requests" him to stop the Forever War this new world is locked into, but if he chooses not to accept this request, he'd have a much, much poorer chance of surviving, so he agrees.
  • Sacred Hospitality: A firm believer in it. If you come to him in good faith, and are an invited guest, you have nothing to fear. Tile finds the concept fascinating and is deeply intrigued that Admusias practices it, even when called "the weakest Demon Lord."
  • Slave Liberation: Mostly along the "buy them and free them" line. Needing more manpower to maintain his dungeon, he asks Andre to expand the summoning criteria and adds "slave" to the menu. The moment he tries to summon one and sees that Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil, he immediately takes measures to free all the current slaves and end the system.
  • Standing Between the Enemies: Not by choice. "God" plops his dungeon right on the landmass that stands between the human and demon armies and says "I request that you stop the war." Cias has no choice but to declare himself a Truce Zone, enforced by dungeon labyrinth.
  • Supreme Chef: He is an excellent cook, at least by the standards of this new world. When Paimon joins his service and runs out of food, a simple sea-food stew cooked in sea-water turns out to be the best dish she's ever tasted, and she's not alone, various other guests have praised his culinary talents, including the #1 and #2 demon lords, who have each flattened a continent with a single punch!
  • Trap Master: What makes his dungeon deadly to intruders is not brute force, but very cunning and sophisticated traps, some of which aren't on the menu. For example, his "lowest risk" corridor is a hypoxia trap which is treated as "low risk" because it only has an entrance, an exit, a few "harmless" pit-traps, and no vents. Bwahahaha!
  • Ultimate Blacksmith: He fashions his own weapons and armor from the iron provided by the dungeon, which it extracts from the rust colored soil upon which it's built.
  • Weaponized Landmark: His crystal palace labyrinth isn't just a giant work of art that depends on gravity manipulation to both stay afloat and deal with intruders. Normal maze-conquering techniques won't work on its interior, and the exterior is loaded to the hilt with anti-air and anti-ground defenses, in the unlikely event that 100X gravity isn't enough to literally squash intruders like bugs.

     Andrealphus 
The protagonist's cell-phone, given sentience as soon as the dungeon was up and running.
  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Is extremely acerbic to Amdusias.
  • Bond Creature: Its life is bound to Admusias's. If he dies, so does it.
  • Hypocrite: Which Admusias points out. While Admusias is up-front about wanting to ogle the naked bodies of the women in his sphere of influence, and gives them the option to decline by letting them bathe separately, an option which they turn down, it compels him to let himself not only be ogled, but made extremely uncomfortable by making all sorts of lewd comments and perverted noises, yet calls him "disgusting."
    [That, I am completely disgusted]
    "Be quiet, peeper!"
  • Instant A.I.: Just Add Water!: A presumably normal smart-phone that became sentient when talks with "god" were over and Amdusias got his dungeon up and running.
  • In-Universe Nickname: Goes by "Andre."
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: If it's being nice to Amdusias, it's only because it's in her interests.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Launches a couple of lengthy and scathing tirades against Admusias at the start when Admusias made some rookie mistakes, prioritizing his bath fetish over his safety.
  • Servile Snarker: It never passes up an opportunity to dis Amdusias.
  • Sexual Extortion: It compels Admusias to let himself be ogled nude in the bath with perverted intentions by threatening him that if he declines then all future summons will either be men or so physically unattractive/bizarre that they can't easily be identified as women.

     Paimon 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vol7_cover.jpg
Clockwise from left to right is Demon Lord Amdusias, Princess Tisha, and Paimon on the right.
Amdusias's first summon.
  • Abusive Parents: She would only be fed once every two or three days when the norm in her home village was a meal twice or thrice a day.
  • All the Other Reindeer: She was scorned by her entire home village for being born with one horn, as opposed to two, and the first time she went before a demon lord, seeking to serve, she was turned away for it.
  • Badass Adorable: She's a sweetheart and can solo the notorious 11th demon lord in single combat, and he's no pushover.
  • Because You Were Nice to Me: She happily swears allegiance to Amdusias because he invited her to be his subordinate and openly treasures her, when everyone else, at best, drove her away.
  • Boyish Short Hair: She wears her hair very short and holds a male-dominated occupation, a soldier.
  • Classical Anti-Hero: She is a good, kind woman, but holds herself in contempt after a life-time of abuse, insults, and ridicule. The fact that Amdusias treasures her frequently has her crying Tears of Joy.
  • Clingy Jealous Girl: She is very possessive of bath-time with Amdusias and will not brook interlopers easily.
  • Crime of Self-Defense: She wasn't even defending herself and still got punished. When all the other children of the village would chase her down and beat her up, the adults would beat her up too while saying "because the children hit you, they wound up getting hurt."
  • Cute Monster Girl: She's an Ogre (Oni) and is adorable in terms of beauty, character, and personality.
  • Fantastic Racism: A victim of it. Because she was born with one horn, not two, she was automatically considered weak and defective, denied food and scorned. She left her home village the instant she was able.
  • Freakiness Shame: She's ashamed that she has one horn, not two, and is tickled pink by the fact that Amdusias finds her lone horn beautiful, a sign of strength.
  • Horned Humanoid: Has a single horn in her forehead.
  • I Just Want to Be Loved: Wandering the entire Demon continent, even though some places did take her in and treat her warmly, she would always have to leave because most treated her as an outcast, for having one horn. When she reached the [Blood Tears Of The Demon King] plain, and came upon an orc village being leveled by a red-cap swarm, unable to render aid due to the sheer size of the horde, she breaks down and cries out how lonely she is, then along comes Admusias's dungeon, wiping out the red-caps and she's summoned to him, asked to be his subordinate, to be treasured, treated kindly, and having her body admired from head to toe...
  • Lady Looks Like a Dude: In her traditional garb, she looks like a man with a somewhat feminine face, so Admusias mistakes her for a man and calls her Paimon, based on the demon from the Ars Goetia with the same features. When she joins him in the bath and he notices her B or C sized breasts, the fanbase goes and says "Paimon evolved to Oppaimon!"
  • Prone to Tears: Much as she might loathe it, she cries very easily.
  • Red Baron: "The Black Ogre Who Cried." It's even the title of the first chapter from her P.O.V.
  • Secretly Selfish: She wants to monopolize Amdusias's time, bed, and attention, but she feels that if she voices it too much, she will be cast aside.
  • Shameless Fanservice Girl: She likes it when Amdusias ogles her in the bath and gets pouty if he suggests bathing separately.
  • Subordinate Excuse: She would very, very much like to get closer physically and emotionally to Amdusias, as part of her service to him, but she's afraid of being too "selfish" and being cast out if she voices it.
  • Supernatural Gold Eyes: She is an ogre and has golden eyes.
  • Who's Laughing Now?: When she finds herself facing the 11th demon lord in Admusias's throne room, she throws it back in his face how he had the chance to recruit her, but rebuffed her with insults, before she beats him to death.

     Princess Tisha Amuhamura 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/03_10.jpg
I go now, my liege.
The crown princess of the Amuhamura kingdom.
  • The Ace: Her character profile states that if there was an official raking, she would be the #1 or #2 swordsman in the entire True Continent!
  • Action Girl: And how. Takes to the front lines and leads the troops, and it's not because of her royal title, but because she's honestly earned the rank.
  • Boyish Short Hair: Keeps her hair short for the same reasons as Paimon.
  • Cuteness Overload: When she met Admusias, she had to struggle to pay attention to what he was saying because the moment she laid eyes on him, she wanted to run over and glomp him like crazy. The moment talks are over, she goes and does just that, to Paimon's displeasure and his bewilderment.
  • Foil: To Paimon. The two women are very similar, yet very different. Paimon and Tisha both had horrible childhoods filled with deprivation, though Paimon was hated by her people and abused while Tisha was cursed with poverty, and the death of her mother. Both Paimon and Tisha ultimately found a good home in service to a kind man at the end of their struggles. Paimon became Admusias's right hand while Tisha was officially adopted by her father, the king, and proclaimed the crown princess. They both seek to prove their worth through martial strife, but for very different reasons. They both see nothing wrong in being ogled by Admusias in the bath and seek to monopolize his affection.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: Golden haired blonde and a good, kind woman who is most concerned with the welfare of her people.
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: She does.
  • Heroic Bastard: Her father, the king, and her mother, a commoner from a poor village at the front lines were never married, but she's a well-loved by the people not only because her mother tending his wounds, physical and mental, is the only reason he's alive, but because she does her parents proud by being the perfect role model that the kingdom can rally behind.
  • Love at First Sight: She lays eyes on Admusias and immediately goes totally gaga for him.
  • Master Swordsman: What else would you call the best swordsman in an entire continent.
  • Royals Who Actually Do Something: She's King Amuhamura's only child, making her the heir by default, and she leads the armies on the front lines, not to mention being the one to go and negotiate with the 13th demon lord, personally, and then volunteer herself to "keep an eye on him."
  • Shameless Fanservice Girl: Like Paimon, she sees nothing wrong in being ogled in the bath by Admusias. In fact, she will fight Paimon over the right to be ogled the most! Admusias, for his part, doesn't want fighting in the bath, as he sees the mixed bath a sacred Truce Zone where quarreling is not allowed.
  • Someone to Remember Him By: Actually someone to remember her by. Her existence is a living memorial to her mother, the one who tended the king's wounds in the last border skirmish between the humans and the demons. When the king sees her come to him, bearing the rings he gave her mother to get her out of dire straits, he breaks down, officially names the woman a concubine, post-humously, and then anoints Tisha the crown princess.

     Furfur 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vol1_cover_8.jpg
Furfur is on the bottom left corner.
An Undine that gets tangled up in the nets to the desalination plant and decides to live in the bathtub after being rescued.
  • All the Other Reindeer: She's driven out of her home and forced to seek her own fresh-water pond elsewhere. When she's exposed to the ultra-pure water in Amdusias's mixed bath, she decides to move in and claim it as her home. Nobody in the dungeon seems to mind.
  • Curtains Match the Windows: Hair and eyes are the same shade of blue.
  • Innocent Fanservice Girl: Her culture has little to no nudity taboo, so she doesn't grasp the implications of assuming a nude humanoid form without warning.
  • Involuntary Shapeshifting: She changes from her humanoid form into her "true" form, looking like a slime, when she's emotionally distressed or away from fresh water too long.
  • Making a Splash: As an undine, she manipulates water.
  • Meaningful Appearance: As an undine, she sports blue hair.
  • Power Incontinence: She has great difficulty controlling her powers. When Amdusias tasks her with maintaining the rice fields, she bungles it, repeatedly.

     Wepal 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vol8_illustration1.jpg
There, there, Paimon! It will be okay...
A little girl that was summoned, on the brink of death, when Amdusias expanded his summon menu with the word "slave".
  • Almost Dead Guy: After using magic to bring her back from the brink of death, Amdusias restores her to health from extreme deprivation by feeding her small, light meals until she adjusts to having a stable source of nourishment, rather than risk shock by feeding her too much at once. She slowly, but surely, recovers.
  • Born into Slavery: Both her parents were slaves and they sired her as a slave.
  • Breeding Slave: What she expected of her when Amdusias asked if she's a boy or girl. Amdusias near-panics when proclaiming that is in no way his intent for asking.
  • Cheerful Child: Her horrific experience with slavery has not stolen away her joy and innocence of childhood, and Amdusias is grateful for it.
  • Dark and Troubled Past: Her stint as a slave almost killed her.
  • Improbable Infant Survival: She was at death's door as a child, and it's only because Amdusias summoned her, by sheer chance, that she managed to survive.
  • I Owe You My Life: She serves Amdusias because without his intervention, she'd be dead.
  • Last Chance Hitpoint: When she arrived in the dungeon, she was at 1 hitpoint, and already presumed dead by her owner. Admusias has to create a special dungeon instance just to heal her before she died.
  • Slavery Is a Special Kind of Evil: She was abused to the brink of death, as a slave, and a child. Seeing this is what prompts Amdusias to spend at least as much effort smashing the system as he is in ending the Forever War.
  • You Are Number 6: Her stats had her listed as "Number 42." It's only after she's signed on as a servant to Amdusias that she gets a proper name.

     Gremory/Kolon 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vol7_illustration1.jpg
Here, Kolon, use this to store the money I'm giving you to buy food.
Wepal's slave senior, and best friend.
  • Alternate Identity Amnesia: The persona Kolon does not know what her alternate identity does while this alternate identity is fully aware of what Kolon goes through.
  • Beast Man: Half-man, half-wolf.
  • Childhood Friends: With Wepal.
  • Debt Detester: While Amdusias didn't save her life, she is grateful that he saved Wepal's, and serves him faithfully, not only for that, but for freeing her from slavery by having the dungeon's contract magic overwrite her Slave Brand.
  • Little Bit Beastly: Can pass for human aside from her wolf ears.
  • Made a Slave: Was enslaved and sold to the same person who owned Wepal.
  • Manchurian Agent: When she was a citizen of the Zveri empire, she was recruited by an anti-slave hunt organization, the 0th Knight order. Whatever it is they put her through gave her a split personality so she'd be the perfectly loyal "slave" on one side, nameless murder tool on the other.
  • She Who Fights Monsters: Invoked. The anti-slaver organization that recruited her made her just as bad as the slavers she signed up to fight against. Given the order, she will kill friends, family, even fellow slaves to harm the slavers she's sent against. Amdusias is not amused when she's used against him.
  • Slave Brand: She sported a magical tattoo that would allow her owners to track her at any time, making escape impossible. Being summoned to Amdusias and signing on as his subordinate overwrote this.
  • You Are Number 6: Her official slave designation is "Number 12."

Other Demon Lords:

     Demon Lord Tile Jarev Alpactico 
The #2 demon lord.
  • Badass Pacifist: Wants no part of the Human/Demon war and is the second strongest being alive.
  • Bathtub Bonding: She and Erevan happily join Admusias in the bath as part of their visit.
  • Bifauxnen: Fully clothed, she looks like a very attractive guy. Nude, she's an a-cup beauty.
  • Flaw Exploitation: She and Erevan Assad Rinokeros show up on Admusias's literal doorstep by flying over his dungeon, and see no point in hiding it from him. He corrects that flaw with There Is No Kill Like Overkill.
  • She Is the King: A female Demon Lord.
  • Stealth Mentor: By revealing that Tile and Erevan simply flew over Admusias's dungeon, it allowed him to correct a major glaring weakness before a hostile demon lord came along and exploited it, enslaving or murdering him.
  • Winged Humanoid: She has adorable black wings on her back.

     Demon Lord Erevan Assad Rinokeros 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/s_9784040655956.jpg
Erevan is on the front left, Tile on the front right.
The #1 Demon Lord.
  • Badass Pacifist: She wants no part of the Human/Demon war, and it's a good thing too. The last time somebody went and pissed her off, a single punch destroyed an entire continent, leaving behind only an archipelago that looks like a rose when seen from the sky, hence her Red Baron.
  • Bathtub Bonding: She and Tile happily join Admusias in the bath after dinner.
  • Brutal Honesty: She does not bother to mince words.
  • Horned Humanoid: Her character profile states that she has golden horns atop her head.
  • Red Baron: "Flower of Tragedy" due to the fact that she once annihilated an entire continent, leaving only an archipelago that looks like a flower from the sky, with a single punch.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: As can be seen in the image, her eyes are red and can annihilate an entire continent with a single punch.
  • Megaton Punch: She can annihilate entire continents with a single punch!
  • Mystical White Hair: She's got silver hair and is a powerhouse in both magic and martial arts.
  • Person of Mass Destruction: What else do you call someone who levels continents with a punch?
  • She Is the King: A female Demon Lord.
  • Stealth Mentor: By pointing out that Admusias is weak, he realizes that his "blessings from god" aren't as nifty as he thought, when he tries, and fails, to use one of the magic spells he was gifted.
  • Winged Humanoid: It's how she can fly.
  • You No Take Candle: Speaks in broken sentences. Her character profile indicates this is a speech impediment, not a language issue.

     Demon Lord Cochon Kanzeir Gurruni 
The 11th demon lord
  • Assumed Win: He thought his presence was a mere formality and Amdusias would be cowed or crushed by his thousands' man strong army. Result: Total annihilation of said army, especially when his own Bad Boss traits kicked in.
  • Bad Boss: He beheads his underlings for any insubordination, real or imagined, even if this "insubordination" takes the form of wordlessly hesitating at unreasonable orders.
  • The Brute: He has no finesse, no strategy, no tactics. He just relies on overwhelming his foes with pure brute force. This serves him very, very poorly when he goes up against Amdusias who uses very tricky dungeon design to utterly crush and annihilate his enemies.
  • Faking the Dead: He plays possum to dupe Amdusias to bring his "corpse" into the dungeon. While it is a clever plan, he botches it by immediately attacking a "defenseless" Amdusias, resulting in getting bashed to death by Paimon.
  • Gonk: Amdusias states that he looks like an orc, only uglier.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper: He's disgustingly easy to piss off, and he always responds with violence.
  • It's All About Me: The only opinions of merit to him are his own.
  • Jerkass: He doesn't have to eat, he just enjoys doing it. When his troops are starving to death in Amdusias's dungeon, and he's trapped with them, he still insists on getting the lion's share of any food that's found. Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal ensues.
  • Karmic Death: Sneered at Paimon, calling her a weakling when she tried to join his army. As a member of Amdusias' army, she proves she's stronger than he is by beating him to death, in service of her lord.
  • Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: When he heard an ogre wanted to join his army, he invited Paimon to meet him, but turned her away with a sneer upon seeing that she only has one horn. This causes Paimon to join up with Amdusias, who genuinely treasures her and openly admires every inch of her body.
  • Psychological Projection: He's fond of assigning his worst traits to others while presuming he's free of them. For example, when he approaches Amdusias's dungeon and sees no guards, he presumes the latter is an idiot, even though he attacks the speakers where Admusias's voice is coming from, despite seeing that it's an exercise in futility.
  • Too Dumb to Live: He fell for every one of Amdusias's "provocations," dooming himself and all his men.
  • We Have Reserves: His first on-screen attack on his own men? He strikes down the guy standing next to him for shaking too much, and then announces "I have no need for some coward who shakes so much! If you don't want to die, advance at once!"

Amuhamura Kingdom

     King Albert Popo Amuhamura 
  • Blessed with Suck: The only reason he's a king at the human side of the bridge-head between the Demon Continent and the True Continent is that no other country wants it. If the humans are the invading army, his people starve to feed the troops, wives become widows and children become orphans. If it's the demons invading, his country is the bulwark that defends against them.
  • Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: The tides of war separated him from Tisha's mother, not realizing he sired a child. On his way back from the front lines, he meets Tisha, holding her mother's rings. He adopts her as his heir on the spot.
  • The Good King: He rules his country, such as it is, with a firm but gentle hand.
  • Hope Is Scary: He is initially very, very happy that Amdusias annihilated Demon Lord Cochon Kanzeir Gurruni and his 800+ man army, wants peaceful relations, and even had Princess Tisha bring many gifts of high-end magically enchanted weapons and armor as a good-will gesture, with Tisha's delegation coming home without a single casualty, an unprecedented event. Then his Prime Minister points out the pitfalls, the most important of which is that when the Pope of Avi once again pushes for armed conflict, the people - who rightly hate the Pope and his endless warmongering already - are going to see how much better they can live under Amdusias and could easily switch sides. He begins to wonder if Amdusias's good-will gesture is actually good news or not.
  • Lonely at the Top: The only one he can truly trust is his illegitimate daughter, and she has to go to the front lines on a frequent basis...
  • The Lost Lenore: Tisha's mother. The woman tended his wounds, physical and mental, offered aid and succor when she didn't have enough food for herself and didn't ask anything in return. He gave her some gold rings, unprompted, so she can have a better life and get out of distress. Her daughter comes to him, rings in hand...
  • Reluctant Ruler: He hates being king, seeing as the frequent skirmishes, pushed onto him by either demon invasion or church of avi fanaticism, leaves his people to suffer. The adults understand full well it's not his fault. The children... have made it a sort of tradition to spit on the church's idols and paintings, and sometimes spit on the king too.
  • Resigned to the Call: He can't step down as king and can't oppose the church of avi's fanaticism, warmongering, and human supremacy. All he can ever hope for is to minimize the damage, and then Amdusias is "born" almost literally on his doorstep.

Church of Avi/The Sacred Kingdom of Adolveld

     As a whole 
  • Corrupt Church: According to King Amuhamura, the church has absolutely no scruples.
  • Deliberate Values Dissonance: They bring forward idols and paintings of their patron deity and force people to spit on them, proclaiming that's somehow a sign of respect. This makes sense only to them.
  • Fantastic Racism: They are 100% human supremacist, and happily preach for the complete extermination of demons.
  • The Fundamentalist: They're the only religion in the land, by force of arms, and the state religion of their own country.
  • Ignorant of Their Own Ignorance: Since they live right in the heart of the True Continent, where food and agriculture is abundant, they can't fathom the concept of "famine." As such, when one or more of the nearby countries balk at the thought of yet another crusade, all the top brass can only see apostasy as the motivation, to the ire of everyone else.
  • Miles Gloriosus: They love to boast how they're god's chosen and the demons are no match for them, but they're not the ones actually going to the front lines. They push others into the fight, and should those others balk, they're "cowards" at best, "traitors" at worst.
  • Warhawk: They're always pushing for a war of extermination on the "demon" races, but they're almost never the ones in the fight and care nothing about the casualties or war-induced famine that results from either their troop deployment, or the troop deployment they push for the nations on the front lines.
