* FullNameUltimatum: during the raid on Theed Palace, while they are in the starfighter hangar, Shmi sharply tells Anakin to stay where he is in their native language. It turns out that, in said language, ''Anakin'' is An'Ahn-Kyh, "Steals the Hidden Light".

* AndImTheQueenOfSheba: after a flustered Anakin denies having a crush on Padme, Azem retorts: "Right, and I'm the Archbishop of Ishgard." The joke is that Azem ''killed'' the last Archbishop, which caused Ishgard to switch to democracy soon after.

* BilingualBackfire: PlayedWith in that it is rather unintentional on both sides. Shmi sometimes shifts into an alternate language that is not Basic, first adressing a blessing to Azem, then scolding Anakin during the assault on the palace. Both times, Azem fails to realize she switched languages because of {{Omniglot the Echo}} and understands what she says perfectly.

* BalanceBetweenLightAndDarkness: in opposition to the Jedi, who believe "balance in the Force" means the domination of the Light Side, Azem is a firm proponent to "balance" being Light and Darkness standing on equal footing. Given [[ImHavingSoulPains his experiences]] during [[ApocalypseWow the events]] of [[LightIsNotGood Shadowbringers]], his point of view is at the very least justified.



* CultureClash: the Jedi have strong beliefs concerning the Light Side and the Dark Side of the Force. Though it isn't revealed how the Force is connected to aether and dynamis, Azem still has his own experience with Light and Darkness that is ''much'' different from the Jedi's. A heated debate ensues between him, Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan that leads to some disturbing revelations for the Jedi..

* ParentalSubstitute: Azem becomes a surrogate father to Anakin, much to his pleasure. Between helping him hone his mechanical skills and his protectiveness of the boy, Padme actually asks if he is Anakin's father. Then he lulls the boy to sleep during the trip to Coruscant. The ship's crew finds the scene adorable.

Being an adept of the Living Force himself, and concerned his padawan may lose himself in contemplation of the future, Qui-Gon trained him out of it. Shmi verbally tears into him for it, pointing that the gift of foresight is rare enough as it is and he should have simply found someone who could teach him student. Qui-Gon concedes the point.

!!Tropes contained in ''Star Wars : A New Dawn'':

* BondCreature: after Azem wins a vornskr at a sabacc game, Anakin creates a Force Bond with her, effectively making her his familiar.
* CanineCompanion: Argos faithfully serves Azem as his companion. Azem himself keeps him around in memory of Venat. Anakin, meanwhile, later bonds with a vornskr he names Pateessa.
* EvilDetectingDog: {{Downplayed}}. Vornskr can detect Force users, like their prey the ysalamiri, but also the Jedi... and the Sith. Palpatine has to double on his shields so Pateessa doesn't simply [[CuttingTheKnot sniff him out]].
* KilledOffForReal: though he manages to fatally stab Qui-Gon, the elder Jedi still has the last laugh against Darth Maul by beheading him instead of cutting him in half. Darth Maul is well and truly dead as a result.
* MeaningfulName: Anakin names his vornskr partner Pateessa, the Huttese word for ''friend'', because she is his CanineCompanion.
* OffWithHisHead: during their fight with Darth Maul, the Sith manages to stab Qui-Gon... who retaliates by beheading him with the last of his strength, effectively killing him for good. Obi-Wan later hands it over to the Jedi.
