* UnskilledButStrong: Compared to Jack, who relies on several sword techniques and fast reflexes to overcome his opponent, the Scotsman simply attacks head on with everything he's got, shrugging off any attacks that hit him.

* IncorruptiblePurePureness: An ... unconventional example. In Episode 7, when he finally meets the Sirens, he’s not even a little tempted by their hypnotic song and remains devoted to his wife. This arguably makes him more noble than Jack, as even the titular samurai couldn’t resist them.

** In "Scotsman Saves Jack Part II", an amnesic Jack, the Scotsman, and a bunch of pirates sail the ocean, only to come within range of the song of {{Enthralling Siren}}s. Everyone on the ship becomes hypnotized, except the Scotsman. Why? The fact is that the song of the siren enchants men due to how beautiful it is to their ears. The Scotsman thinks their singing is horrible and considers what could be the DarthWiki/MostAnnoyingSound as beauty to his ears.

The fact that he's wheelchair-bound and needs the assistance of one of his daughters to move quickly, [[spoiler:as well as how quickly Aku eliminates him, drives that point home. Likewise, no matter how large or badass your army, that does little good against a NighInvulnerable EldritchAbomination that they have no means of actually harming.]]
