* AccidentalMisnaming: Mostly due to her heavy French accent she calls Handsome Jack, Handsome "Jacque". In his face. After a complaint she melted one of his subordinates. Jack obviously isn't amused by this and gives her a not-so-ImpliedDeathThreat, but Ember manages to impress Jack in one way or another given she's very much alive when the Vault Hunter meets her.

* HeelRealization: Happened an unnamed time before the Vault Hunters arrived. An ECHO Log has Butcher Rose expressing desire in killing everyone in Vestige. Another one has Juno warning everyone of an imminent big scale attack and it's most likely due to her warning Vestige is still standing by the time ''Bounty of Blood'' happens.

* RedHerring: Savvy players might think this thing is another Eridian monster left behind and that the Company found a vault in Gehenna... Nope. It's just a freaking huge bioweapon the Company didn't wake and left behind because they at least had a modicum of sanity and knew they wouldn't be able to control something so big and destructive.
