Yet despite this he never gives up and is more of a threat from his sheer determination to win rather than having overwhelming firepower.

* DramaticIrony: He's full of these.
** In Byston Well there exists a legend of a "Holy Warrior" that will descend and save the world from disaster. Drake initially paints Show and Todd as these heroes. Only for Show to fulfil the prophecy by saving the world from Drake.
** When he tries to bluff Silkie into summoning more Upper-Earthers, he claims that there are people that would do harm to his daughter Riml...cue Silkie's line of sight slowly shifting to [[EvilMatriarch Luuza]] before agreeing that Drake is right.



* BlatantLies: When Luuza challenges him on why he wears a mask in front of his swore lord, the Black Knight responds that his face becomes terribly ugly and twisted in battle so he keeps a mask on...even though he wasn't in battle right then. Luuza picks up on the evasion but lets it slide.



* EvilMentor: He starts out as this to both Show and Todd before they both defected.



* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Bern/Burn/Baan and Bunnings/Bannings/Bernings.

It disappears when he finally takes off the helmet of his own volition and returns to his true self.

* HiddenDepths: When he pretends to be Show's friend to get the Ferario to lead him to Show, he sees him being attacked by a reptile monster and upon the Ferario's encouragement goes to save him. In that moment he reaches an unprecedented level of Aura power that shocked even Show. But after he goes back to trying to kill Show he finds he can't access that power again - in fact his Aura is decreasing, which suggests that deep down he really wanted to be Show's friend.
