* CreepyGood: The man is just a ''tiny'' bit unhinged and has some seriously disturbing tendencies at times. That said, he is still 100% on your side and even downright friendly once you get past his weirdness.



* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: He's right about nearly everything somehow. Thankfully Takkar takes his knowledge at face value rather than doubt him.

* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: We never see the woman who Karoosh had his son with, but possibly she's already dead.
* ManlyFacialHair: A shorter one than Takkar, but it's still there, and he happens to be the Wenja's best warrior.
* BerserkButton: Mog is the only thing that can make Karoosh ditch his normal cheerful demeanour. Makes sense, given that Mog killed his son.

* OffingTheOffspring: [[spoiler:Subverted, he initially threatens to kill his baby to prevent Takkar from killing it instead, but when Ull sees his daughter watching, he can't bring himself to go through with it, instead asking Takkar to TakeCareOfTheKids. Compare him to Batari...]]

* AGodAmI: Batari was born during a solar eclipse, and the Izila took this as a sign that she was a daughter of the Sun God Suxli, raising her to be their priestess. Unfortunately, it also left Batari with a massive superiority complex.
* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: We never see the father of her son Krati. It's possible Barati killed him once he had got her pregnant, just like Citra to Jason in the Bad Ending of ''Far Cry 3''.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Deconstructed - the Udam are first set up as this evil force and stereotypically AlwaysChaoticEvil CannibalTribe. Sayla, the first Wenja Takkar meets, will explain how they razed the Wenja's village to the ground. The first Udam the player is likely to encounter is loudly shouting and mutilating a Wenja corpse, and two more near him are tearing Wenja bodies apart and impaling them to cook them. Their outposts are filled with mutilated bodies, and their primitive look, along with the red body paint and bones they wear, make them look [[UncannyValley inhuman]], and they are constantly covered in blood and gore. They wouldn't look out of place in a group of Orcs in a scene from ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings''. Yet as the game advances, the Udam are revealed to be a dying people struggling against their own decline, the cause of which they do not even understand, using what limited means they can muster based on their own primitive beliefs. An Udam even becomes an ally of Takkar. This transition is complete when [[spoiler:a dying Ull asks Takkar to protect his children and raise them, which Takkar does]].

The Udam are a violent, cannibalistic tribe of archaic ''Homo sapiens'' that hails from the frozen north of Oros. They have the appearance characteristic of archaic Homo sapiens with towering body structures and heavy brow ridges. They want to eat the Wenja, believing it can cure them from an encapsulating plague. Their leader is the towering War Chief, Ull.

Tensay has an African appearance, and he's pretty disturbing with the way he's constantly getting in Takkar's personal space. NiceHat? Well, he wears a wolfskin over his head. Skeletal appearance? Apart from being very thin, he coats himself with white paint that emphasizes his ribs. Hedonistic party lover? When he's not making creepy blood potions and sending Takkar on {{Vision Quest}}s, Tensay loves to dance with his staff, ''and'' he's the one who encourages the Wenja tribe to "dance with spirits" in celebration of [[spoiler:Takkar killing Batari]]. Crass manners? He urinates on [[spoiler:a captive Roshani]] and Krati's stone mask before making Takkar put it on.
