* AmbiguouslyHuman: The Reaper has a humanoid body shape, but his head is most likely not a mask, he can fall long distances unscathed, and he has black blood. Whether he's a human empowered by the Flame, something that WasOnceAMan, or was always a supernatural entity is unclear.

* GlassCannon: Ibzan can teleport around the map and has astonishingly good aim and reflexes, but it takes very little damage to drive him off. [[spoiler: He is just like the player Reaper in that way.]]



* SnowMeansDeath: He dies in the snow just outside [[spoiler:the Fire's Home]].



* TragicVillain: [[spoiler:The final level on Hard Mode contains a tape with the name scratched out. Listening to it reveals the monologue of what is most likely the Reaper... only for it to explicitly describe the Fire as ''friend'' rather than ''boss'', heavily implying that it's Ibzan, which clarifies some of his motives -- he's trying to get back to his only friend.]]

* WhoWantsToLiveForever: [[spoiler:If the secret tape in the final level in Hard Mode is to be believed, Ibzan's existence as a Reaper was bleak and monotonous, unable to eat, drink, sleep, or even close his eyes. It's never specified how long he had been at it, other than a [[TimeAbyss potentially]] very long time. His only solace was the Fire's presence, and even then he had no way to communicate directly.]]
