* DeathGlare: Fey'la gives Viqi Sheesh one during ''Star by Star'' when she starts trying to "interpret" his words in a negotiation (which is a pretty big no-no in political circles). It's enough to momentarily get her to shut up. Fey'la's on the recieving end a short while later from the Bothan ambassador, which he takes to mean he's never going to be allowed back to Bothwaui while he's alive.

* BeneathNotice: The reason YVH-M droids, Yuuzhan Vong Hunter droids in the shape of the Mouse Droids, work so well. Most people never notice a regular Mouse droid as it goes about its work, allowing them to find infiltrators without anyone getting suspicious.

By this point, the galaxy at large finally understands and accepts collaboration or cutting deals with the Vong is a fool's bargain; they've broken their word too many times to trust any more promises of peace or mercy. So the Brigade now has no choice, but to remain allied with the Vong to protect themselves from the Galactic Alliance (who will be coming for all their heads should they win the war). But it's ''not'' an alliance of equals, because the Vong are now using them as cannon fodder (and will have no more use for the Brigade if they win the war). Either way, the Peace Brigrade loses.

* NoTrueScotsman: Vergere is... not remotely approving of Luke's reforms to the Jedi Order, regarding them as not ''proper'' Jedi. Jacen's about the only one she figures is closest to her idea of Jediness.
* RammingAlwaysWorks: [[spoiler:Vergere]] helps deal with the problem of taking out the two thousand Yuuzhan Vong troops on Ebaq-9 by flying an A-Wing into the military base. The result is a colossal fireball which takes out the artificial atmosphere, causing all the Vong troops to suffocate in seconds. [[spoiler:It also kills her in the process. And Tsavong Lah manages to survive.]]
