History VideoGame / KnightBewitched

* AmbiguousSituation: Uno reveals that in his past, he started off killing a lord that did unspeakable things to a young boy who begged him to reduce taxes on the town. His relationship to the boy or even if [[AndThatLittleGirlWasMe he is the boy]] is left unclear. However, the ''Enhanced Edition'' clarifies that Uno was actually sold into slavery and killed the slaver, so that lord wasn't the true spark of his vigilantism.

* RealPolitik: Uno's description in the player guide DLC states that there are rumors that the king of Halonia hires Uno as his own personal assassin. It's implied that some of the corrupt aristocrats in the kingdom are so well-connected that even the king cannot publicly oppose them, which is why he secretly uses Uno as a way to avoid getting his hands dirty.

The game is available on [[https://store.steampowered.com/app/815150/Knight_Bewitched/ Steam]] and [[https://joshua-keith.itch.io/knight-bewitched itch.io]].

* TheStinger: A post credit scene [[spoiler:shows what happened in the Sealed Tower: Typhus actually refused to fight Morgoth for some unknown reason, implying that Morgoth has a part to play in the plans of Lilith's master, though even he doesn't know what. Worse yet, it turns out Morgoth gave Hydrax the password to the tower, which allowed Typhus's unsealing. Combined with Keller saying Morgoth was sick and Typhus last words, this implies he will play a major part in the [[VideoGame/MariAndTheBlackTower sequel]]. In the ''Enhanced Edition'', there's an additional scene where Lilith returns to her boss arena and reminisces about a battle she fought a century ago, but she takes the dark-skinned blond appearance she has in a later game, ''Absinthia'']].

** On the way to the reunion of the Witches, there's a maze created by one of Gwen's sisters to keep intruders out, and the party has to find and turn off 4 levelers to get past it.
** There's another one in Morgoth's lair, which is more mind-bending since it seamlessly loops in itself

* ManEatingPlant: The boss of the Underbog is named Man-Eating Plant, and is a larger version of the fly-traps that you've seen on the bog.

* KleptomaniacHero: While the party opens chests regardless of who the owner might be, Uno goes a step further [[spoiler:when he reveals that he stole Halonia's legendary Sylvans sword shortly after Alduin and the king arrested Ruth.]]

* InsecureLoveInterest: Gwen originally [[spoiler:placed a MoreThanMindControl curse on Ruth as a precaution in case the latter tried to kill her upon recovering from Bog Fever.

Even when the party manages to gain the trust of the current leader, Strasza, some of the dragon citizens aren't ready to give coexistence another chance.

* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Alduin, when learning that Ruth left Gwen alive, instantly turns against her and her party (granted, he never seemed to even care much for Stray and Uno), accusing her of being bewitched and arresting her. The rest of the party breaks Ruth out of jail and becomes fugitives alongside her, resulting in two boss fights with Alduin over the course of the story. [[spoiler:Alduin chases them down to Malady and Meredith's hideout, but agrees to help them enchant Sylvanaras once he realizes Gwen is his sister.]]
