Meanwhile, Consevatie disregards the promise he made with Jackson to keep the boys safe in exchange to kill them to hurt both Malty and Naofumi.

[[folder:General]]
----
%%* AdaptationalBadass:
* AdaptationalHeroism: Zig Zagged. From the original canon of the Shield Hero story, the Church of the Three Heroes were unambiguously evil in actively putting down Naofumi's heroic achievements and took their overly-zealous religion too far. The entire church in command of Pope Balmus and the members were all in agreement to take over Melromarc and needed to be stopped by all four heroes working together. Here in ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', while there are some factions of the church have their ulterior motives, there are others who want to be genuinely peaceful, are reasonable in bringing their support to the commoners, and can put their religion aside to work with the Shield Hero's party to face off an undead Scourge.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: From canon, the church as a whole banned the usage of shields, because they do not wish to associate themselves with the Shield Hero in any way. However, by giving up shields, they lose a tactical advantage in fighting, just like how Pope Balmus' defeat in canon was the result of not creating a magical shield. ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'' has the church use shields for a [[BeliefMakesYouStupid tactical advantage and does not wish to waste such a valuable weapon over being too prideful of their beliefs.]]
-->'''Richard:''' Mighty stupid reason to forgo a strategy advantage. [[TakeThat Do you take us for badly written villains in come stage plays, or trashy knight novels for the audience to laugh at?]] Or do you think that the shield fanatics in Siltvelt refuse to use a weapon because their immortal god king doesn't? We wouldn't have beaten back the Siltvelt Invaders, if we were ''that'' stupid.
* BeliefMakesYouStupid: The most fanatical and zealous members of the Three Heroes Church are depicted as the most foolish, since the members plan on expanding their influence throughout all of Melromarc, but lack any real tactical planning or straight goals to achieve.
* BlatantLies: The Three Heroes Church claim to be protecting Princess Melty in their custody and taking care of Aultcray's injuries, but they are really only interested in expanding their influences onto nearby house inside of Melromarc.
* ChildishVillainMatureHero: The more reasonable authority figures of the Three Heroes Church such as Pope Balmus, Logarius, and smaller members who are able to side with Naofumi with no grudges attached are portrayed as heroic people. The more childish and highly fanatical side of the Three Heroes Church are actively against the Shield Hero and are willing to use violent methods to subjugate everyone into their rule.
* HostageSituation: The Three Heroes Church have a boy and their overly zealous followers lure the Three Heroes and their companions into a trap in chapter 111. The Church does so with the intent to turn Bertia and Iris into their own hostages, as so they can pressure their fathers from retaliating against the Three Heroes Church, because of their daughters' endangerment.
* DisneyVillainDeath: The last army of the Three Heroes Church brought to suppress Graile's rebellion meet their doom by Streibough performing a TakingYouWithMe in the form of an earthquake spell to drag everyone down from a great height.
* EvilPowerVacuum: Discussed. After the fall of Biscas T. Balmus and in his comatose state, Cromwell becomes [[TyrantTakesTheHelm the Tyrant That Takes The Helm]] in controlling the remains of the Three Heroes Church. Though Cromwell may be in control, Malty and Uranus don't expect the case to last for long in chapter 105, as there is a chance another greedy member of the church may backstab Cromwell for the position of leader.
%%* HitlerAteSugar:
* KarmicMisfire: Believing that Naofumi and Mein are in some way responsible for the goddess beating down on everyone in chapter 94, Cromwell and Consevatie convince their church members to go into conflict with each other to blame Naofumi and Mein. Reasonings to think that the event is of Naofumi's fault is Cromwell believing he failed to keep Lautrec under watch and Naofumi is the Shield Devil. Consevatie on the other hand just wants to slander Mein as a coward that ran away from the goddess only interested in killing her.
* KnightOfCerebus: Although ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'' is not really a comedy series and occasionally has its moments where the main characters get into comical shenanigans, the appearance or interactions with the Church of the Three Heroes either downplays or removes any potential comedy in exchange of focusing on the political drama to gain more power.
* PoliticalHostage: An unnamed boy demands with the Three Heroes to hand them over Bertia Ibil Nochers and Iris Lana Amelia to the Three Heroes Church. Iris, sensing something wrong with the boy's demands in chapter 111, she calls out that she and Bertia are likely to be used as a PoliticalHostage against their fathers to not attack the Three Heroes Church, and the reason Katarina is not mentioned is because her father is safe at Cal Mira island.
* ZergRush: The knights of Graile that might have been collaborating with the Three Heroes Church choose to enslave everybody in their city by outnumbering every commoner in numbers and not having any strategy beyond quantity. Deconstructed, as it means that Malty, Naofumi, Demitrius, Uranus, Streibough, and Oersted are able to slip through the knights and hide out into Nagumo's dojo in chapter 104.

%%* AdaptationalBadass:
%%* AdaptationalHeroism:
* DefiantToTheEnd: The sword of Web!Raphtalia is left hanging on his body, but rather than fully give up and just die, Pope Balmus uses his arms to smash the arm of the goddess that stabbed him with her sword.
* DeusExitMachina: Being the pope of the Three Heroes Church, Balmus has the most control among the organization, as a majority of his followers look up to him, despite some members being more fanatically inclined to hate the Shield Hero. However, due to being put in a coma in the aftermath fight against Web!Raphtalia, Balmus' lack of presence results in Cromwell and Siegmar Isaac Octavius Consevatie taking control of the Three Heroes Church to arrest Naofumi and Malty.
* AFatherToHisMen: Having been a personal and important figure for both his church and demi-human followers, all of them raged at the goddess that stabbed him with her sword in chapter 94. The demi-humans all decried at the goddess and promised to make sure she is killed off right away.
%%* GoodAllAlong: In chapter 87,
* InstantDeathStab: Downplayed. He gets stabbed right through his body by Lautrec's goddess in chapter 94. While the blade of the sword stab is still on Balmus, he remains DefiantToTheEnd of the situation by breaking the arm of the goddess, before dying to the ground.
* LastDitchMove: As his health is slowly sapped away from the sword stab he got from the goddess, Pope Balmus is able to get a clear accurate shot at breaking the goddess' arm.
%%* ManipulativeBastard:
%%* MusclesAreMeaningless:
* NotMeThisTime: For some time after falling unconscious under the outer goddess's stab wound, Balmus is blamed by Malty for most likely being the one to have orchestrated the Three Heroes Church's growing influence throughout Melromarc in chapter 108. However, it turns out that within the same chapter's omake, Balmus is still in a comatose, has no involvement with what the Three Heroes Church are doing, and someone else is destroying his shrine.
* NotQuiteDead: Pope Balmus is left impaled by the goddess' sword in chapter 94, yet despite the impalement, he doesn't die right away and uses the last of his strength to break an arm of the goddess.
* SacrificialLion: Getting stabbed by the Lady of the Sword in the third wave, and being put near the state of death has angered several of his church followers and has alerted the people of the battlefield to really put in their efforts to kill the goddess.

[[quoteright:337:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sister_amelia_the_rising_of_the_shield_hero_two.png]]
----
%%* AdaptationalExpansion:
* AdaptationalVillainy: Sister Amelia's only villainous actions in ''Literature/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'' was to deny Naofumi his chance to have access to the dragon hour glass by King Aultcray's order and her reaction to Naofumi's denial is to let out an arrogant smile. By ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', Sister Amelia plays an active role in expanding the Three Heroes Church to claim all of Melromarc and being far more than just a rude jerk in canon.
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: She discusses a demand with Father Gordon of the Four Heroes Church in chapter 103, but he refuses to give her what she wants. For Father Gordon's inability to grant her request, Sister Amelia goes to stab him in the stomach by the end of the chapter.
* AscendedExtra: In ''Literature/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'', she acted as a SpearCarrier character that only appeared in one scene to deny Naofumi holy water. By ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', Sister Amelia is a major member of the Three Heroes Church that recurs in arcs that involve her taking charge as a leader.
* BlasphemousPraise: She praises Consevatie as a god for having beaten up Bartfort on his own in chapter 112, even though her faith dictates her to believe that the Three Heroes are the ones that should be on a pedestal.
* DirtyCoward: As soon as trouble in Graile is spurred and she is unable to find suitable evidence to frame Naofumi and Malty as confederates of their real selves, Sister Amelia flees Graile in hopes of avoiding the upstart of a rebellion. When Sister Amelia does return back to Graile in chapter 110, she makes sure to bring an army of the Three Heroes Church as back up to ensure victory and her own safety.
* DisneyVillainDeath: Along with the army she brought back to Graile for a last round to end the rebellion, Sister Amelia is killed by Streibough opening up an earthquake that sends her down the pits of a large chasm in chapter 110.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Exaggerated. In response for the punch she received from Father Gordon and because the latter is refusing to give into her demands, Sister Amelia screeches at her knights and indirectly every knight in Graile to [[LeaveNoSurvivors burn down everyone]].
* EyeTake: Sister Amelia's eyes widened in shock at chapter 108 from witnessing Naofumi debunk her claims of him not being the Shield Hero and for inspiring a revolution in Graile.
* HeroWorshipper: She becomes a worshipper of Consevatie from watching him beat up Bartfort, and giving him BlasphemousPraise as someone who is a god in chapter 112.
* HesitationEqualsDishonesty: In her attempt to discredit Naofumi and Malty from playing their true selves in chapter 108, Sister Amelia at first has confidence in denouncing that Naofumi isn't the Shield Hero if he has no shield. However, Naofumi expecting to be denounced pulls out his imitated buckler shield, and any attempts of Sister Amelia's further deception is only blatant denials with a hesitation to bring confidence to her own lies.
%%* {{Jerkass}}:
%%* KarmaHoudineWarranty:
* LeaveNoSurvivors: She makes an order in chapter 104 to enslave or kill everyone in Graile, as a result from getting a well-deserved punch from Gordon for having stabbed his stomach.
%%* MovingTheGoalposts:
* NamedByTheAdaptation: ''Literature/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'' only had her be a SpearCarrier that only said a few lines and lacked a name in her sole appearance. The fanfic gives the priestess the name of Sister Amelia, as so she is associated to House Amelia and be an AscendedExtra that plays a major role for the Three Heroes Church.
* NotQuiteDead: Sister Amelia appeared to have died in chapter 110 by Streibough landing her to a DisneyVillainDeath in an earthquake. It turns out, however, that Sister Amelia survived the earthquake looking dirty when she returns in chapter 112 steaming with rage for having failed conquering Graile.
* OCStandIn: Being a minor character from her home series, Sister Amelia's only known trait was that she was a SmugSmiler that was proud of denying Naofumi a level-up from the dragon hour glass. At her role in ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', Sister Amelia's expanded role gives her the personality of an overzealous church member willing to do absolutely anything to uphold the unstable teachings of the Three Heroes Church, at the cost of ruining the Four Legendary Heroes and noble houses.
* RevengeByProxy: From either Father Gordon denying to fulfill her demands or receiving a punch from him for having stabbed the latter, Sister Amelia makes an order for her knights to enslave everyone that is holding out demi-humans or Cultist, as she believes that every person in Graile had made themselves to be just as bad as the Three Heroes Church's enemies.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Rather than to deal with the rebellion uprising in Graile, she leaves all of her church templars and slave fighters to do the fighting, while she takes her time to flee from all the conflict in chapter 109.
%%* SinsOfOurFathers:
* SlaveRace: Invoked. Her words to burn down everyone in the Graile at chapter 104 is to have the knights inside of the city to attach a Slave Crest onto anyone, so as to expand the rule of the Three Heroes Church.
* TeamKiller: Downplayed. Father Gordon, a member of the Four Heroes Church which is a branch of the Three Heroes Church is killed by Sister Amelia in chapter 103 for failure to accept a deal with her.
* ThisCannotBe: Sister Amelia is left in disbelief that Naofumi can somehow imitate a fake shield with his balloons to debunk her claim that he isn't the Shield Hero in chapter 108. Having no more tricks up her sleeve, Sister Amelia can only resort to making denials with no claim to solidify her lies to turn the public away from Naofumi and Malty.
%%* UngratefulBitch:
* VillainousBreakdown:
** She quickly undergoes a breakdown of yelling in chapter 108 as a reaction to the people of Graile rebelling against the Three Heroes Church's, and Naofumi and Malty making their appearances to further strengthen the revolution. All while in the background, Sister Amelia could only deny everything that is happening and make futile orders to fight the rebels.
** In the aftermath of Graile's rebellion, Sister Amelia's reintroduction back into the story at chapter 112 has her rage be let loose to blame Naofumi and Malty for having interfered her attempts to have Graile be taken control by the Three Heroes Church.
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: From watching Firo in chapter 96 make several defiant words against Consevatie and the church to stay loyal to Naofumi, Sister Amelia suggests for Consevatie to let the bird die, as Firo is shown to be way too rebellious to be controlled. Consevatie on the other hand wants Firo alive for being a monarch breed filorial.
* WithUsOrAgainstUs: In her praise to uplift Consevatie as a god at chapter 112, she claims that his will is to cast down all the Legendary Heroes, and anyone who fails to support the Church of the Three Heroes are to be labeled as heretics.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cromwell.png]]
----
* ConflictBall: Confessor Oliver Cromwell was the one that started the Church of the Three Heroes to go against the members of itself, so he could have Naofumi and Mein be treated as [[FallGuy scapegoats]] to be used for why Lautrec's goddess came into Medea. Cromwell goes as far as to attack his own church colleagues and demi-human followers to start a riot in seizing everyone of the Shield Hero's party.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Implied. As horrible as he may have been to treat Naofumi and Malty as criminals, and being the [[TyrantTakesTheHelm Tyrant That Takes The Helm]] of the Three Heroes Church, it's discussed by Uranus and Malty that Cromwell is not the type of person that would slip down a path of self-destruction to enslave a city of innocent people for no reason.
* TheFundamentalist: Believing himself to be a necessary leader for the Three Heroes Church after Pope Balmus' coma from his sword stab, Confessor Cromwell takes charge in following the strictest protocols of the Three Heroes Church hating the Shield Hero. Though there are lessons such as extending Strength, Truth, and Justice to enemies, Cromwell ignores such teaches to focus himself on viewing Naofumi and all of his parties as criminals that are in someway, responsible for Web!Raphtalia's arrival. Any person that opposes him, and his own church colleagues and demi-human followers, Cromwell treats them as an enemy where he is willing to put weapons near their heads.
* InsultToRocks: He is described by Richard as a insane narcissist so selfish that it would make Vicar Lawrence, a person who is far from a saint, look good in comparison to what Cromwell is as a person.
* PrinciplesZealot: The huge part of the Three Heroes' faith is that it holds a strong hatred to those being the Shield Hero, and because of this part of the faith, Confessor Cromwell is actively taking measures to blame Naofumi for supposedly being the one responsible at bringing Lautrec and the latter's goddess into Medea. Confessor's faith to the church has reach borderline levels of insanity, as while the church hates the Shield Hero, one of the main teaching the church still provides to always prioritize on Strength, Truth, and Justice, even if the enemy may be unlikable.
* TeamKiller: Downplayed. He doesn't kill the demi-human followers, but because Cain and Mittelt choose to not follow his orders to capture the Shield Hero immediately, Cromwell shocks them with their slave crest for defiance.
* TyrantTakesTheHelm: After Pope Balmus is severely injured from his sword wound from the goddess and is out cold, Confessor Cromwell takes it upon himself to become the main leader of the Three Heroes Church, despite not being a vicar. As the regent, Confessor Cromwell prioritizes his leadership to hunting down the Shield Hero and all of his companions under his control, and to any opposition, including members of his own faction are arrested on the spot.
* WithUsOrAgainstUs: Believing himself as a leader that needs to take up the mantle of Pope Balmus, Cromwell wants his rule and orders to be absolute in capturing the Shield Hero and all his companions under suspicion they are related to bring Lautrec's goddess. Everyone opposition Cromwell is met, he chooses to treat them all as enemies to be arrested and be held as hostages, and it includes even his own church members that don't follow his mind of thinking.

* SlaveCollar: Mittelt and Cain are shown to have a slave seal be attached on their bodies for choosing to object with Cromwell's orders to have the Shield Hero and all his companions be detained. Even if the demi-humans are loyal followers of the Church, the higherups still see them as animals to be enslaved at the possibility of being questioned.
* ShockCollar: The demi-humans may have their loyalties set to the Three Heroes Church, but the higherup members have them be wearing a SlaveCollar that can shock them for their disobedience.
* {{Tykebomb}}: In chapter 91, it's revealed through Mein's observations that the Church of the Three Heroes had been taking demi-human orphans that were left over from the Great War that was 25 years ago.

%%* CompositeCharacter:
* ItsProbablyNothing: Played for Laughs. He wanders his thoughts of worry from what the rest of the Three Heroes Church members may become without Pope Balmus taking charge, until he notices Mein near him in chapter 99.

Luckily for Mein, Lord Commander Cloud quickly dismisses her as just a person and thinks that his paranoia may be affecting his judgement.
* OccultBlueEyes: To signify his status as a SoleSurvivor against the Siltvelt Invaders and as a Seer, Lord Commander Cloud is frequently mentioned of his blue eyes glowing.

* KnowsAGuyWhoKnowsAGuy: Anytime time his allies come across a person they have no knowledge of, or need to find someplace for assistance, Uranus is likely to be the one sharing close connections with that person, due to his old age going through adventures with them in the past.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: For all of Streibough's attempts to invade Sophia and Siesta's personal privacy, Uranus scolds Streibough for putting down others just to [[SmugSnake flaunt his own intelligence]] in chapter 105.
-->'''Uranus:''' And you (Streibough)! You need to stop ''flaunting'' your intelligence, and respect other people's secrets!

* EnhancedPunch: He used a miracle that turns his punch into a golden color to effectively punch Sister Amelia hard enough that she flies across a room.
* GoldColoredSuperiority: His miracle to give himself a EnhancedPunch is by turning his fist into a golden color.
* KilledOffscreen: He was last shown fighting off Sister Amelia and her two knights, before a few chapters pass on for characters to relay his offscreen death.
* LastStand: Knowing he won't survive the knife wound on his stomach and that Sister Amelia's knights will eventually go after Demetrius and the latter's allies, Gordon chooses to fight to fight the knights, until he finally tires out.
* MadeOfIron: Downplayed. The knife stab he received from Sister Amelia does stagger him a bit, but Father Gordon refuses to give up completely and resorts to making a LastStand in facing off all of Sister Amelia's knights to buy time for Brother Demetrius to escape.
* PreAsskickingOneLiner: In preparation to face off the knights in chapter 104 and distract them from following Brother Demetrius, Gordon announces himself as the main opponent for the knights to fight.
* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: The punch Gordon delivered to Sister Amelia's face was enough to send her and two of her knights to be flying across the room that they were in.
* SurprisinglySuddenDeath: In his discussion with Sister Amelia as to accept her demands, Gordon's refusal to follow through what she wants results in Sister Amelia getting so agitated that she stabs him by [[WeHardlyKnewYe the end of his introductory chapter]].
* WeHardlyKnewYe: He gets introduced in chapter 103 to have a brief chat with Uranus in bringing over an army to assist Sophia and Siesta (Naofumi and Malty in their disguises) to complete their pilgrimage. Gordon is then afterwards led to a room by Demetrius to be stabbed in the stomach by Sister Amelia, ceasing any further characterization on Gordon.
* WouldHitAGirl: For Sister Amelia stabbing his stomach, Gordon in return punches her face as a means of retaliating, and he shows no interest that Sister Amelia might not be a fighter.
* YouShallNotPass: Gordon stays behind and refuses to come with Brother Demetrius, as he would prefer dealing with his own knife wound and face off Sister Amelia's knights to buy time. That way, Brother Demetrius can escort his allies to safety.

* CatGirl: She is a demi-human holding cat-like attributes, such as her ears resembling that of a cat, while the rest of her body appears mainly human.

!Church of the Three Heroes '''(Major Spoilers)'''
[[folder:General]]
----
%%* AdaptationalBadass:
* AdaptationalHeroism: Zig Zagged. From the original canon of the Shield Hero story, the Church of the Three Heroes were unambiguously evil in actively putting down Naofumi's heroic achievements and took their overly-zealous religion too far. The entire church in command of Pope Balmus and the members were all in agreement to take over Melromarc and needed to be stopped by all four heroes working together. Here in ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', while there are some factions of the church have their ulterior motives, there are others who want to be genuinely peaceful, are reasonable in bringing their support to the commoners, and can put their religion aside to work with the Shield Hero's party to face off an undead Scourge.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: From canon, the church as a whole banned the usage of shields, because they do not wish to associate themselves with the Shield Hero in any way. However, by giving up shields, they lose a tactical advantage in fighting, just like how Pope Balmus' defeat in canon was the result of not creating a magical shield. ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'' has the church use shields for a [[BeliefMakesYouStupid tactical advantage and does not wish to waste such a valuable weapon over being too prideful of their beliefs.]]
-->'''Richard:''' Mighty stupid reason to forgo a strategy advantage. [[TakeThat Do you take us for badly written villains in come stage plays, or trashy knight novels for the audience to laugh at?]] Or do you think that the shield fanatics in Siltvelt refuse to use a weapon because their immortal god king doesn't? We wouldn't have beaten back the Siltvelt Invaders, if we were ''that'' stupid.
* BeliefMakesYouStupid: The most fanatical and zealous members of the Three Heroes Church are depicted as the most foolish, since the members plan on expanding their influence throughout all of Melromarc, but lack any real tactical planning or straight goals to achieve.
* BlatantLies: The Three Heroes Church claim to be protecting Princess Melty in their custody and taking care of Aultcray's injuries, but they are really only interested in expanding their influences onto nearby house inside of Melromarc.
* ChildishVillainMatureHero: The more reasonable authority figures of the Three Heroes Church such as Pope Balmus, Logarius, and smaller members who are able to side with Naofumi with no grudges attached are portrayed as heroic people. The more childish and highly fanatical side of the Three Heroes Church are actively against the Shield Hero and are willing to use violent methods to subjugate everyone into their rule.
* HostageSituation: The Three Heroes Church have a boy and their overly zealous followers lure the Three Heroes and their companions into a trap in chapter 111. The Church does so with the intent to turn Bertia and Iris into their own hostages, as so they can pressure their fathers from retaliating against the Three Heroes Church, because of their daughters' endangerment.
* DisneyVillainDeath: The last army of the Three Heroes Church brought to suppress Graile's rebellion meet their doom by Streibough performing a TakingYouWithMe in the form of an earthquake spell to drag everyone down from a great height.
* EvilPowerVacuum: Discussed. After the fall of Biscas T. Balmus and in his comatose state, Cromwell becomes [[TyrantTakesTheHelm the Tyrant That Takes The Helm]] in controlling the remains of the Three Heroes Church. Though Cromwell may be in control, Malty and Uranus don't expect the case to last for long in chapter 105, as there is a chance another greedy member of the church may backstab Cromwell for the position of leader.
%%* HitlerAteSugar:
* KarmicMisfire: Believing that Naofumi and Mein are in some way responsible for the goddess beating down on everyone in chapter 94, Cromwell and Consevatie convince their church members to go into conflict with each other to blame Naofumi and Mein. Reasonings to think that the event is of Naofumi's fault is Cromwell believing he failed to keep Lautrec under watch and Naofumi is the Shield Devil. Consevatie on the other hand just wants to slander Mein as a coward that ran away from the goddess only interested in killing her.
* KnightOfCerebus: Although ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'' is not really a comedy series and occasionally has its moments where the main characters get into comical shenanigans, the appearance or interactions with the Church of the Three Heroes either downplays or removes any potential comedy in exchange of focusing on the political drama to gain more power.
* PoliticalHostage: An unnamed boy demands with the Three Heroes to hand them over Bertia Ibil Nochers and Iris Lana Amelia to the Three Heroes Church. Iris, sensing something wrong with the boy's demands in chapter 111, she calls out that she and Bertia are likely to be used as a PoliticalHostage against their fathers to not attack the Three Heroes Church, and the reason Katarina is not mentioned is because her father is safe at Cal Mira island.
* ZergRush: The knights of Graile that might have been collaborating with the Three Heroes Church choose to enslave everybody in their city by outnumbering every commoner in numbers and not having any strategy beyond quantity. Deconstructed, as it means that Malty, Naofumi, Demitrius, Uranus, Streibough, and Oersted are able to slip through the knights and hide out into Nagumo's dojo in chapter 104.

* DefiantToTheEnd: The sword of Web!Raphtalia is left hanging on his body, but rather than fully give up and just die, Pope Balmus uses his arms to smash the arm of the goddess that stabbed him with her sword.
* DeusExitMachina: Being the pope of the Three Heroes Church, Balmus has the most control among the organization, as a majority of his followers look up to him, despite some members being more fanatically inclined to hate the Shield Hero. However, due to being put in a coma in the aftermath fight against Web!Raphtalia, Balmus' lack of presence results in Cromwell and Siegmar Isaac Octavius Consevatie taking control of the Three Heroes Church to arrest Naofumi and Malty.
* AFatherToHisMen: Having been a personal and important figure for both his church and demi-human followers, all of them raged at the goddess that stabbed him with her sword in chapter 94. The demi-humans all decried at the goddess and promised to make sure she is killed off right away.

However, it turns out that within the same chapter's omake, Balmus is still in a comatose, has no involvement with what the Three Heroes Church are doing, and someone else is destroying his shrine.
* NotQuiteDead: Pope Balmus is left impaled by the goddess' sword in chapter 94, yet despite the impalement, he doesn't die right away and uses the last of his strength to break an arm of the goddess.
* SacrificialLion: Getting stabbed by the Lady of the Sword in the third wave, and being put near the state of death has angered several of his church followers and has alerted the people of the battlefield to really put in their efforts to kill the goddess.

%%* AdaptationalExpansion:
* AdaptationalVillainy: Sister Amelia's only villainous actions in ''Literature/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'' was to deny Naofumi his chance to have access to the dragon hour glass by King Aultcray's order and her reaction to Naofumi's denial is to let out an arrogant smile. By ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', Sister Amelia plays an active role in expanding the Three Heroes Church to claim all of Melromarc and being far more than just a rude jerk in canon.
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: She discusses a demand with Father Gordon of the Four Heroes Church in chapter 103, but he refuses to give her what she wants. For Father Gordon's inability to grant her request, Sister Amelia goes to stab him in the stomach by the end of the chapter.
* AscendedExtra: In ''Literature/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'', she acted as a SpearCarrier character that only appeared in one scene to deny Naofumi holy water. By ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', Sister Amelia is a major member of the Three Heroes Church that recurs in arcs that involve her taking charge as a leader.
* BlasphemousPraise: She praises Consevatie as a god for having beaten up Bartfort on his own in chapter 112, even though her faith dictates her to believe that the Three Heroes are the ones that should be on a pedestal.
* DirtyCoward: As soon as trouble in Graile is spurred and she is unable to find suitable evidence to frame Naofumi and Malty as confederates of their real selves, Sister Amelia flees Graile in hopes of avoiding the upstart of a rebellion. When Sister Amelia does return back to Graile in chapter 110, she makes sure to bring an army of the Three Heroes Church as back up to ensure victory and her own safety.
* DisneyVillainDeath: Along with the army she brought back to Graile for a last round to end the rebellion, Sister Amelia is killed by Streibough opening up an earthquake that sends her down the pits of a large chasm in chapter 110.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Exaggerated. In response for the punch she received from Father Gordon and because the latter is refusing to give into her demands, Sister Amelia screeches at her knights and indirectly every knight in Graile to [[LeaveNoSurvivors burn down everyone]].
* EyeTake: Sister Amelia's eyes widened in shock at chapter 108 from witnessing Naofumi debunk her claims of him not being the Shield Hero and for inspiring a revolution in Graile.
* HeroWorshipper: She becomes a worshipper of Consevatie from watching him beat up Bartfort, and giving him BlasphemousPraise as someone who is a god in chapter 112.
* HesitationEqualsDishonesty: In her attempt to discredit Naofumi and Malty from playing their true selves in chapter 108, Sister Amelia at first has confidence in denouncing that Naofumi isn't the Shield Hero if he has no shield. However, Naofumi expecting to be denounced pulls out his imitated buckler shield, and any attempts of Sister Amelia's further deception is only blatant denials with a hesitation to bring confidence to her own lies.
%%* {{Jerkass}}:
%%* KarmaHoudineWarranty:
* LeaveNoSurvivors: She makes an order in chapter 104 to enslave or kill everyone in Graile, as a result from getting a well-deserved punch from Gordon for having stabbed his stomach.
%%* MovingTheGoalposts:
* NamedByTheAdaptation: ''Literature/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'' only had her be a SpearCarrier that only said a few lines and lacked a name in her sole appearance. The fanfic gives the priestess the name of Sister Amelia, as so she is associated to House Amelia and be an AscendedExtra that plays a major role for the Three Heroes Church.
* NotQuiteDead: Sister Amelia appeared to have died in chapter 110 by Streibough landing her to a DisneyVillainDeath in an earthquake. It turns out, however, that Sister Amelia survived the earthquake looking dirty when she returns in chapter 112 steaming with rage for having failed conquering Graile.
* OCStandIn: Being a minor character from her home series, Sister Amelia's only known trait was that she was a SmugSmiler that was proud of denying Naofumi a level-up from the dragon hour glass. At her role in ''FanFic/AmbitionOfTheRedPrincess'', Sister Amelia's expanded role gives her the personality of an overzealous church member willing to do absolutely anything to uphold the unstable teachings of the Three Heroes Church, at the cost of ruining the Four Legendary Heroes and noble houses.
* RevengeByProxy: From either Father Gordon denying to fulfill her demands or receiving a punch from him for having stabbed the latter, Sister Amelia makes an order for her knights to enslave everyone that is holding out demi-humans or Cultist, as she believes that every person in Graile had made themselves to be just as bad as the Three Heroes Church's enemies.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Rather than to deal with the rebellion uprising in Graile, she leaves all of her church templars and slave fighters to do the fighting, while she takes her time to flee from all the conflict in chapter 109.
%%* SinsOfOurFathers:
* SlaveRace: Invoked. Her words to burn down everyone in the Graile at chapter 104 is to have the knights inside of the city to attach a Slave Crest onto anyone, so as to expand the rule of the Three Heroes Church.
* TeamKiller: Downplayed. Father Gordon, a member of the Four Heroes Church which is a branch of the Three Heroes Church is killed by Sister Amelia in chapter 103 for failure to accept a deal with her.
* ThisCannotBe: Sister Amelia is left in disbelief that Naofumi can somehow imitate a fake shield with his balloons to debunk her claim that he isn't the Shield Hero in chapter 108. Having no more tricks up her sleeve, Sister Amelia can only resort to making denials with no claim to solidify her lies to turn the public away from Naofumi and Malty.
%%* UngratefulBitch:
* VillainousBreakdown:
** She quickly undergoes a breakdown of yelling in chapter 108 as a reaction to the people of Graile rebelling against the Three Heroes Church's, and Naofumi and Malty making their appearances to further strengthen the revolution. All while in the background, Sister Amelia could only deny everything that is happening and make futile orders to fight the rebels.
** In the aftermath of Graile's rebellion, Sister Amelia's reintroduction back into the story at chapter 112 has her rage be let loose to blame Naofumi and Malty for having interfered her attempts to have Graile be taken control by the Three Heroes Church.
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: From watching Firo in chapter 96 make several defiant words against Consevatie and the church to stay loyal to Naofumi, Sister Amelia suggests for Consevatie to let the bird die, as Firo is shown to be way too rebellious to be controlled. Consevatie on the other hand wants Firo alive for being a monarch breed filorial.
* WithUsOrAgainstUs: In her praise to uplift Consevatie as a god at chapter 112, she claims that his will is to cast down all the Legendary Heroes, and anyone who fails to support the Church of the Three Heroes are to be labeled as heretics.

----
* ConflictBall: Confessor Oliver Cromwell was the one that started the Church of the Three Heroes to go against the members of itself, so he could have Naofumi and Mein be treated as [[FallGuy scapegoats]] to be used for why Lautrec's goddess came into Medea. Cromwell goes as far as to attack his own church colleagues and demi-human followers to start a riot in seizing everyone of the Shield Hero's party.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Implied. As horrible as he may have been to treat Naofumi and Malty as criminals, and being the [[TyrantTakesTheHelm Tyrant That Takes The Helm]] of the Three Heroes Church, it's discussed by Uranus and Malty that Cromwell is not the type of person that would slip down a path of self-destruction to enslave a city of innocent people for no reason.
* TheFundamentalist: Believing himself to be a necessary leader for the Three Heroes Church after Pope Balmus' coma from his sword stab, Confessor Cromwell takes charge in following the strictest protocols of the Three Heroes Church hating the Shield Hero. Though there are lessons such as extending Strength, Truth, and Justice to enemies, Cromwell ignores such teaches to focus himself on viewing Naofumi and all of his parties as criminals that are in someway, responsible for Web!Raphtalia's arrival. Any person that opposes him, and his own church colleagues and demi-human followers, Cromwell treats them as an enemy where he is willing to put weapons near their heads.
* InsultToRocks: He is described by Richard as a insane narcissist so selfish that it would make Vicar Lawrence, a person who is far from a saint, look good in comparison to what Cromwell is as a person.
* PrinciplesZealot: The huge part of the Three Heroes' faith is that it holds a strong hatred to those being the Shield Hero, and because of this part of the faith, Confessor Cromwell is actively taking measures to blame Naofumi for supposedly being the one responsible at bringing Lautrec and the latter's goddess into Medea. Confessor's faith to the church has reach borderline levels of insanity, as while the church hates the Shield Hero, one of the main teaching the church still provides to always prioritize on Strength, Truth, and Justice, even if the enemy may be unlikable.
* TeamKiller: Downplayed. He doesn't kill the demi-human followers, but because Cain and Mittelt choose to not follow his orders to capture the Shield Hero immediately, Cromwell shocks them with their slave crest for defiance.
* TyrantTakesTheHelm: After Pope Balmus is severely injured from his sword wound from the goddess and is out cold, Confessor Cromwell takes it upon himself to become the main leader of the Three Heroes Church, despite not being a vicar. As the regent, Confessor Cromwell prioritizes his leadership to hunting down the Shield Hero and all of his companions under his control, and to any opposition, including members of his own faction are arrested on the spot.
* WithUsOrAgainstUs: Believing himself as a leader that needs to take up the mantle of Pope Balmus, Cromwell wants his rule and orders to be absolute in capturing the Shield Hero and all his companions under suspicion they are related to bring Lautrec's goddess. Everyone opposition Cromwell is met, he chooses to treat them all as enemies to be arrested and be held as hostages, and it includes even his own church members that don't follow his mind of thinking.

* SlaveCollar: Mittelt and Cain are shown to have a slave seal be attached on their bodies for choosing to object with Cromwell's orders to have the Shield Hero and all his companions be detained. Even if the demi-humans are loyal followers of the Church, the higherups still see them as animals to be enslaved at the possibility of being questioned.
* ShockCollar: The demi-humans may have their loyalties set to the Three Heroes Church, but the higherup members have them be wearing a SlaveCollar that can shock them for their disobedience.
* {{Tykebomb}}: In chapter 91, it's revealed through Mein's observations that the Church of the Three Heroes had been taking demi-human orphans that were left over from the Great War that was 25 years ago.

* ItsProbablyNothing: Played for Laughs. He wanders his thoughts of worry from what the rest of the Three Heroes Church members may become without Pope Balmus taking charge, until he notices Mein near him in chapter 99.

Luckily for Mein, Lord Commander Cloud quickly dismisses her as just a person and thinks that his paranoia may be affecting his judgement.

* KnowsAGuyWhoKnowsAGuy: Anytime time his allies come across a person they have no knowledge of, or need to find someplace for assistance, Uranus is likely to be the one sharing close connections with that person, due to his old age going through adventures with them in the past.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: For all of Streibough's attempts to invade Sophia and Siesta's personal privacy, Uranus scolds Streibough for putting down others just to [[SmugSnake flaunt his own intelligence]] in chapter 105.

* GoldColoredSuperiority: His miracle to give himself a EnhancedPunch is by turning his fist into a golden color.
* KilledOffscreen: He was last shown fighting off Sister Amelia and her two knights, before a few chapters pass on for characters to relay his offscreen death.
* LastStand: Knowing he won't survive the knife wound on his stomach and that Sister Amelia's knights will eventually go after Demetrius and the latter's allies, Gordon chooses to fight to fight the knights, until he finally tires out.
* MadeOfIron: Downplayed. The knife stab he received from Sister Amelia does stagger him a bit, but Father Gordon refuses to give up completely and resorts to making a LastStand in facing off all of Sister Amelia's knights to buy time for Brother Demetrius to escape.
* PreAsskickingOneLiner: In preparation to face off the knights in chapter 104 and distract them from following Brother Demetrius, Gordon announces himself as the main opponent for the knights to fight.
* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: The punch Gordon delivered to Sister Amelia's face was enough to send her and two of her knights to be flying across the room that they were in.
* SurprisinglySuddenDeath: In his discussion with Sister Amelia as to accept her demands, Gordon's refusal to follow through what she wants results in Sister Amelia getting so agitated that she stabs him by [[WeHardlyKnewYe the end of his introductory chapter]].

Gordon is then afterwards led to a room by Demetrius to be stabbed in the stomach by Sister Amelia, ceasing any further characterization on Gordon.
* WouldHitAGirl: For Sister Amelia stabbing his stomach, Gordon in return punches her face as a means of retaliating, and he shows no interest that Sister Amelia might not be a fighter.
* YouShallNotPass: Gordon stays behind and refuses to come with Brother Demetrius, as he would prefer dealing with his own knife wound and face off Sister Amelia's knights to buy time. That way, Brother Demetrius can escort his allies to safety.
