* EstablishingCharacterMoment:
** Ghoncl at the beginning of ''Dope Knight 1''. He is immediately stated to be on a return trip from Alabamanest to buy weed, insinuating that he is a stoner. This is the brunt of his character for the entire series.
** Hornet, when she shows up in Greenpath. She is portrayed as smart, sensible, and sick of her crackhead brother.
** Hollow, in the same scene as Hornet: he's a nervous wreck, barely able to speak without stuttering.
** Herrah. Even when she's first mentioned by Elderbug she is described as "Deepnest's stripper queen", and is later referred to as 'unhinged' by Hornet. When we actually meet her, she is everything that she's described as and more: a promiscuous, hypersexual beast who isn't afraid to ask for what she wants - especially from PK, the king of Hallownest.

* SpidersAreScary: Invoked with Hornet, the deadly daughter of the Pale King and Herrah the Beast. She's shown to have incredible fighting talent and wit, and manages to make various characters afraid of her.
** Herrah herself is this, but in a different way. She only manages to scare others through her unhinged sexual actions and advances.
