* TheBigGuy: Peter, who is both physically bigger than the rest of the party and the strongest party member.
* CardsOfPower: Being a tarocchi means Lolli uses her tarot deck as an arcane focus.
* DeadToBeginWith: The characters die just before the campaign begins; the downtime between missions takes place in the Astral Plane.
