Judging from the Council's words, they are meant to protect Earth and humanity from direct influence of any parties.

* BloodKnight: Tearing apart enemies with gusto seems to be a Nephilim trait.
-->'''Strife:''' You... ever get tired... of slaughtering hordes and hordes of demons?\\
'''War:''' No.\\
'''Strife:''' Yeah, me neither!



* HiddenDepths: Strife is at first glance a wisecracking gunslinger who doesn't seem to respect any kind of authority. But the players along with War learn more over the course of the game: he's conflicted about the Nephilim's extinction, he has done things he's not proud of even before he became a Horseman, and he does respect the balance.
-->'''Strife:''' I know who I am. And I'll do the Council's dirty work. All I want is to know why I'm pulling the trigger.

* PragmaticVillainy: Samael refused Lucifer's deal, partially because he has some alleged respect for the Council's Balance, partially because he doesn't trust his rival one bit. He goes on to make an alliance with War and Strife, guiding them into taking down Hell's Masters. Not out of righteousness, but because with them gone, Samael gains all the more dominion over Hell.



* WhamLine: Once Moloch is dead, Samael finally explains to the Horsemen just what Lucifer's plans are.
-->'''Samael:''' To fuel [[CorruptTheCutie The Animus]], Lucifer struck a deal with the Masters granting each of them power at a heavy price. The fools agreed, believing they would be invincible. He made the same offer to me. Heh, can you imagine the nerve?\\

* EnemyCivilWar: An empowered Moloch leads a siege against Blackstone Keep, Samael's fortress, at the beginning of the story and successfully uproots him. Samael aids the Horsemen throughout the game against the demons Lucifer [[DealWithTheDevil struck bargains with]] in order to be rid of his rivals and claim their resources.


Added DiffLines:

* KinslayingIsASpecialKindOfEvil: This game takes place relatively soon after the Horsemen's mission to annihilate the Nephilim, meaning that particular subject is hot news. Demons like Vulgrim taunt War and Strife for what they did in Eden, and angels like Abaddon and the corrupted Astartes treat them with palpable distaste. The two themselves aren't particularly proud of their actions: War appears more relaxed but constantly [[IDidWhatIHadToDo makes]] [[NecessaryEvil justifications]] as if he's trying to reassure himself and his brother, while Strife more openly questions if wiping out their own kind was the right thing.

* CorruptTheCutie: Lucifer's plan. He used demonic energies in order to create the Animus which will [[DeusAngstMachina cause corruption]] among the humans. Strife and War were then forced to KillTheCutie.
* CrapsackWorld: Eden is depicted this way, understandable since the game takes place a short (but indeterminate) time after the Nephilim tried to invade the realm and their eventual massacre at the hands of the Horsemen.



* FromNobodyToNightmare: How everyone describes Belial and Molloch, as boon of their bargain with Lucifer.

to:

* DynamicEntry: When Strife and War go to Molloch's domain, they are joined by Samael who dives into the battlefield like a meteorite. Strife is impressed.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: How everyone describes Belial and Molloch, as a boon of their bargain with Lucifer.Lucifer.
* GenreSavvy: Strife, Samael, and Lucifer. Strife is more of a MetaGuy, while Samael and Lucifer play XanatosSpeedChess against each other, with Samael being a ManipulativeBastard and Lucifer TheChessmaster.

* KnightInSourArmor: Strife and War meet the battle-weary Abaddon who has been fighting Lucifer's corruption in Eden since that realm's fall. He laments that the likes of Astarte have fallen from grace, but he soldiers on, and welcomes the assistance of Strife and War to cleanse the realm.


Added DiffLines:

* TemptingFate: Strife notes with disappointment that he expected the Blood Mantle to be more heavily guarded. Cue the guardians of the Blood Mantle.
* TentacledTerror: Dagon is presented as a massive tentacled demon obsessed with drowning his opponents to "cleanse" them.
* VillainousGlutton: The newly minted Demonic Lord Belial. Strife is particularly disgusted by him defiling Eden and him regurgitating a crystal the Horseman can use as a key.

'''War''': [[NoSenseOfHumor Why would I give away my location?]] I would simply [[LightningBruiser smash through the door]] and face my assailant.
* ConstantlyCurious: Strife. He encourages [[AloofBigBrother War]] to constantly question their orders and the situations they're in and to not just blindly follow the Council.

* FromNobodyToNightmare: How everyone describes Belial and Molloch, as boon of their bargain with Lucifer.

* NarratingTheObvious: Vulgrim's first mission for Strife and War has them going to a demonic dungeon to retrieve an artifact. Once there, Strife humorously notes:
-->'''Strife''': Screams of suffering, cages...yep, we're [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin definitely]] in a dungeon.
* ThePowerOfTheSun: Dis and Vulgrim describe the Ember Core as an artifact housing "the power of a thousand suns".
