* MagnificentBastard: [[spoiler:Jeremy]], a man who has been manipulating things from behind the scenes for most of the story. While he only shows up in person once, his presence can still be felt for a while after that. Frankly, if it wasn't for the apparent stupidity of his employers, he may have had a chance at succeeding.

** Char's short-lived dagger.
** Hasha (a wizard) and Arthur (a blacksmith) later make [[spoiler:a similar sword for [[TheChosenOne Katya]]]]

[[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/feral-the-story-of-a-half-orc.410831 Feral: The Story of a Half-Orc]] is an ongoing original fantasy story that follows Char, a [[HalfHumanHybrid Half-Orc]] blacksmith and [[GeniusBruiser apprentice mage]], through a world that [[FantasticRacism hates his kind]].

----------------------------

* FiveManBand Strangely this is both played straight and averted. While [[spoiler: Katya]] is the leader, the story is told from Char's point of view, and he is the one who gathers a team near the end of the first arc. That said, the set up can be seen as
** TheLeader [[UltimateBlacksmith Char]]
** TheLancer [[spoiler: [[TheChosenOne Katya]]]]
** TheSmartGuy [[BlackMage Hasha]]
** TheBigGuy [[CanineCompanion Mountain]]
** TheSixthRanger [[NobleBigot Richard]]

* HalfHumanHybrid Our main protagonist. There is also an assassin who is apparently half-dwarf, and Januse, a beastman who suggest he is also a hybrid. Considering Hasha first met Char due to the formers studies of hybrids, it's possible there are dozens more, though it's unknown how prevalent they are.
* {{Magitek}} One of the main points of the story. In the world of Turab, where the story takes place, magic and science exist side by side. The author takes great pains to establish a relatively well-crafted blend, with the idea being that though magic exists in this world, it is still viewed from a scientific angle. Thus a wizard will use words like 'hypothesis' and 'radiation' along with words like 'elemental spirits' and 'healing potions' all with the logical mindset a modern day scientist would have.

* TheBlacksmith: Char and Arthur are both this, though Char shows shades of UltimateBlacksmith . While Arthur is shown to be able to make a sword, he requires the help of Hasha to make it magical. Char, on the other hand, uses both magic from his world and blacksmithing techniques from ours to create armor of incredible power and durability.
* TheChosenOne:
** [[spoiler: Katya, a young woman who, from the moment we're introduced properly to her, is touted as being the future hero of the world.]] Except [[spoiler: she isn't. The whole thing was a lie told to control the populace in the aftermath of a great plague.]]
** Char mentions the local faith has a Prophesied Child, and that they will be debuting soon. [[BlatantLies Of course, Char is never going to meet them, and their heroic journey will in no way cross paths with Char's]]. [[spoiler: Her name is Katya, and she's our {{Deuteragonist}}]]
