* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: [[spoiler: He is the greatest warrior among the Skaldi, so good that he was able to disarm Joscelin in the heat of battle. He finally meets his match in Isidore d'Aiglemort, who killed him despite having taken several wounds to get to him.]]



%%* ProudWarriorRaceGuy

to:

%%* ProudWarriorRaceGuy* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: He's the epitome of the Skaldi warrior ideal, but shows himself to be more cunning than this trope would usually suggest. He differs from the other Skaldi in that he's a "leader who thinks," someone with a solid understanding of strategy & long-term planning instead of only living for blood & battle.

[[folder: Erich]]
!! Erich
A young Skaldi warrior held captive in Darsanga.
----
!! Tropes applying to Erich:
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: He offers to help Phedre, despite knowing who she is & the role she played in thwarting the Skaldi invasion, because she sang hearth songs to him.
* CharacterDeath: Dies during the battle for Darsanga.
* DespairEventHorizon: Hits it after being castrated by the Mahrkagir. He spends most of his time huddled against the wall, refusing to speak. It takes a lot of coaxing from Phedre to bring him out of it.
* MysteriousPast: We never learn how he ended up a eunuch in the Mahrkagir's zenana.

* AffablyEvil: He's a pretty good master to his d'Angeline slaves and an all-around genial lord to his subjects, but he's still practising RapePillageAndBurn on hapless commoners living near his territory.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: Hearing Phedre singing about how she misses her country reduces him to tears with all his men - Skaldis ''adore'' this trope.
* ShipTease: With Hedwig, the only woman to openly call him out on his behaviour.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Dismisses Joscelin as a PrettyBoy whose beard hasn't grown out, which makes him [[JustAKid a boy]] for Skaldi standards.




to:

* NiceGirl: She's easily the most understanding towards Phedre's plight as a slave away from her people and country.
* ShipTease: Phedre gently advices her to give a chance to Gunter.
