* CassandraTruth: When Tarkin tells him the funding needed for his science experiments is very high and costly, Hemlock tells him that science isn't something to be rushed, since it takes time to be perfected. Tarkin does not take him seriously, and just considers Hemlock's research a waste of resources, [[spoiler:ultimately shutting it down after Hemlock's death]]. Given that Palpatine's clone body would be degenerated by the time of the Sequel Trilogy, despite decades worth of time to perfect the process, it seems that no one actually put in the required effort.

Though how much it truly indicates care is questionable given that [[spoiler:he directly threatens to punish Karr for failure, with no affability, after Omega and the children escape the vault in the finale.]]

* FantasticRacism: As is typical of Imperial officers, Hemlock absolutely hates clones, but goes even further by referring to them as Imperial property instead of human beings. He views them as inherently weak and uses the most painful methods possible to experiment on them.



* GreaterScopeVillain: Royce Hemlock was actually behind the Clone X Troopers, which means he assisted Admiral Rampart by lending him Clone X's services to silence anyone who knew the true fate of Kamino. On top of that, he was also keeping tabs on Crosshair for a long time now.
* HateSink: Following the precedent set by Rampart, Hemlock is a psychopath with a bloodthirsty streak and an irrational hatred of clone troopers. He sees experimenting on clones as the easiest way to get rid of them, and it's made quite clear that he ''loves'' making them suffer.

* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler: After being shot repeatedly by Hunter and Crosshair, Hemlock falls from the platform he's standing on to the jungle below. One of Tarkin's subordinates confirms his death.]]
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: In the season 3 finale, he mocks the clones' loyality for each other and deems it a weakness, [[spoiler: which is promptly proven wrong when it is in fact their loyality that results in the destruction of the Tantiss base and his demise.]]
* FauxAffablyEvil: While he is very soft-spoken and he makes a token effort at politeness, but Nala Se has his number, refusing to help him. Hemlock also takes a moment to remind [[KickTheDog Lama Su of the loss of his title]]. In "Tipping Point", once [[spoiler:Crosshair refuses to cooperate for the last time, he finally loses his temper a bit and demands more aggressive treatment from the interrogation droid.]]

* AssholeVictim: After mocking Tech's death, manipulating Crosshair, torturing who knows how many clones for his experiments, and [[spoiler: having no qualms about kidnapping children, holding them prisoners and experimenting on them as well]], it's pretty much impossible to feel bad for him when [[spoiler: he is swiftly shot to Death by Crosshair and Hunter.]]

* EmotionlessGirl: Emerie always speaks in a calm, detached demeanor and doesn't reveal any emotion. Makes sense if you consider she's not a clone and has lived her entire life in labs.
