** The "inside the park home run" bomb that Wilbur "Kaboose" Orville has in his plane. Sure, it can blow up a massive area, but it's also a HairTriggerExplosive and is ''extremely heavy''. He'll perform ''much'' better in the air battle if you confiscate it due to no longer being weighed down, but if you let him keep the bomb, it will explode while on the runway, sabotaging the Sprawl's efforts.

It's also impractical for yet another unmentioned reason -- the battle is an air-to-air battle, and bombs are air-to-ground weapons.

* KillerRabbit: Dennis is a pet Sarcastic Fringehead fish who is a candidate to be drafted in the sea battle. Despite looking like a fish, Dennis is as vicious as he looks -- if Lil bullwhips him, he'll ''kill Lil''. Furthermore, he can ''single-handedly win the sea battle'' if he's drafted by himself, but if he's drafted alongside anyone else, the battle will be lost because he will ''[[TeamKiller attack and eat your other drafted members]]''.

Added DiffLines:

* TeamKiller: Dennis the Sarcastic Fringehead is a KillerRabbit of a fish that will ''attack your own drafted forces'' if he's drafted alongside anyone else, leading to a loss. He can still be used for a victory, as long as you don't draft anyone else.

* FictionalSport: Goblinball is a competitive sport that's played around the game's setting, and it contains several odd rules that include wagon wheels, spiked pits, flaming gates, wiggly pigs, slingshots, glistening gargoyles, and more. It's never actually mentioned how scoring works.

* HairTriggerExplosive: The "inside the park home run" bomb that Wilbur "Kaboose" Orville has in his plane is extremely unstable. If you use the Bullwhip on him, he'll collide into his plane, causing the bomb to slide down into the fuel tanks and gunpowder and explode, leveling a huge area of the city and causing a GameOver. Letting him keep the bomb in his plane while drafting him is also a terrible idea, as the bomb will explode on the runway and greatly sabotage the Sprawl's efforts in the air battle.

She's also a ruthless criminal ''hiding a flamethrower on her'' and is seeking to kill and commit crimes. If not handled properly, she can even burn down the Guardhouse and kill Lil.

* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: Chloe on Level 2 has the beautiful face of a Disney Princess, more specifically [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Belle]], but is a ruthless murderer and psychopath who wants to be let in so she can commit theft, forgery, smuggling drugs, piracy, and arson. She even has a home-made flamethrower on her, and if Lil angers her, she'll throw a molotov and burn down the guardhouse, causing a GameOver.

Added DiffLines:

** The little Primaris DragonRider uses a whistle to discipline her dragon Peaches. However, this is not adequate for a battle, as battles get very ''loud''. If Lil drafts her but fails to provide a better discipline method, Peaches will not be able to hear the whistle through the loudness of combat and will flee in a confused state instead of helping out.
