This story contains examples of:
- Action Girl: Claire Faye, as the Warrior of Light, naturally qualifies.
- Blood Knight: Zenos, just like in canon. Claire also has a love of fighting, though not as much as Zenos
- Evil Counterpart: Zenos is this to Claire, in that he's who she'd be if she had no limits and ability to form bonds.
- I Did What I Had to Do: Venat breaks the world so that its inhabitants will be strong enough to defeat Meteion. And she hates every moment of it.
- Master of All: Like the warrior in the trailers, Claire is shown to be a warrior, dragoon, monk, samurai, Dark Knight and Paladin.
- Tragic Villain: Emet-Selch, Yotsuyu, and Nidhogg all qualify, but none more so than Meteion.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Thordan VII as in canon; he fully agrees that what Thordan I did was unforgivable, but continues fighting because he both fears the dragons will never forgive them and he doesn't want the citizens to know that their loved ones died for a lie.
