* FanDisservice: She wears GodivaHair during her battle. Except for her default attack, where her guts rupture out to slap someone as her hair flies back.

* TheScottishTrope: The Urkans (and Guardians) are prohibited to speak the name of their goddess, or that of her enemy the Brood.
* SpaceStation: Orbital Station Myria.
* VillainousBreakdown
* WellIntentionedExtremist: She's protecting life and the world by sending the technology of Caer Xhan to humanity via the Black Ship in manageable doses, keeping the Desert of Death away from humanity with an ocean barrier, and stopping the Brood from destroying the world with their power. Unfortunately, sending machines to humanity means making humanity dependent on her, keeping the Desert away from the rest of the world prevents humanity and Yggdrasil from colonizing and restoring it, and protecting the world from the Brood means either killing them all or imprisoning them in a false Heaven, regardless of whether or not they've done anything wrong.
* BadassLongcoat: As an adult.
* TheBerserker: Turning into the Kaiser Dragon at first turns him into an uncontrollable force that targets both allies and enemies alike.

* ShockAndAwe: He specializes in electric magic.
!!Teepo
* AllThereInTheManual: The story about how he and Rei met.
* [[spoiler:BadPowersGoodPeople: Teepo agrees with Myria's views about the Brood, and sees their power as something that only causes destruction, war and death. And why he thinks both he and Ryu need to be isolated, to prevent more of that to happen.]]
* [[spoiler:BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: Teepo forces Ryu into one after their encounter in Myria's station.]]
* TheCameo: With Rei in ''IV'' (specifically, the NewGamePlus).
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan
* [[spoiler:TheDragon: To Myria.]]
* EarlyBirdCameo: [[spoiler:His adult form is seen almost at the beginning of the game.]]

* WellIntentionedExtremist: She's protecting life and the world by sending the technology of Caer Xhan to humanity via the Black Ship in manageable doses, keeping the Desert of Death away from humanity with an ocean barrier, and stopping the Brood from destroying the world with their power. Unfortunately, sending machines to humanity means making humanity dependent on her, keeping the Desert away from the rest of the world prevents humanity and Yggdrasil from colonizing and restoring it, and protecting the world from the Brood means either killing them all or imprisoning them in a false Heaven, regardless of whether or not they've done anything wrong.
