History Webcomic / WhiteHeron

* TheBrute: Lieutenant Warthog is a North Korean metahuman supersoldier whose main powers are superhuman strength and durability--compounded by his enormous size and bulk. While not stupid per sae, he's brutal in a fight and prefers to crush his opponents in melee combat.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: General Hyun claims to have loved Kim Jeong like she was his own daugther while sadly asking Lt. Warthog if he's ever been betrayed by someone he loves... and then undermines it by saying she must die slowly and painfully by his hands with a SlasherSmile. It's also undermined by him having almost killed her brother and taken significant amounts of her blood in the hopes of getting their powers for himself.

* InsaneAdmiral: General Hyun is the sociopathic social darwinist in charge of North Korea's Metahuman Special Forces. Viewing metahumans as superior to normal humans [[BoomerangBigot despite being one of the latter himself]], he abuses the soldiers under his command--torturing Kim Pak after he's caught with South Korean contraband, then having him vivisected in an attempt to replicate and weaponize his time-bubble powers as a SuperSerum when simple blood transfusions from him and Kim Jeong fail to grant him their powers. He also wastes a syringe of said SuperSerum--which are in short supply due to Jeong's defection and Pak being on the brink of death (if not already dead) to kill a soldier he views as a weak link in a fit of rage upon learning that Jeong survived his attempts to recapture or silence her, declaring that she must die publicly and painfully for her treason.
* LikeASonToMe: The interrogator says that this is how General Hwang sees the metahumans under his command, but [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness his brutal treatment]] of Kim Pak and anyone else he deems a weak link say otherwise. While he refers to Kim Jeong as his "treasonous daughter" and briefly looks melancholic when asking Lieutenant Warthog if he's ever been betrayed by someone he loves, he follows this up with a SlasherSmile while declaring ItsPersonal and that he's going to kill Kim Jeong himself "as an act of love".

* TheSociopath: General Hyun is a ruthless social darwinist who desperately wants to become a metahuman, overseeing a super-soldier program where conscripted metahumans are . Even the former Unit 731 scientist Doctor Morimoto--in charge of producing the Omega Serum--is afraid of him. When he receives word that Kim Jeong is not only alive but has joined the South Korean military, he selects the lowest-performing soldier and wastes a syringe of Omera Serum to murder him in cold blood, pours himself a glass of wine, and announces that Jeong must die in a bloody public spectacle as punishment for her treason.

* SuperSupremacist: General Hyun believes that metahumans are the purest and innately superior to non-superpowered humans... [[BoomerangBigot despite being a normal human himself]].

* CoverBlowingSuperpower: When North Korean agents bomb a dam to flood Hwacheon, Kim Jeong is forced to blow her cover to save the citizens.

* CantHoldHisLiquor: Ozawa is horrified to learn that owning a Bible is illegal in North Korea and promptly gifts Kim Jeong his copy, then immediately passes out after only one glass of beer.

* MonstrousHumanoid: Lieutenant Dalgyal of the North Korean Metahuman Special Forces is a metahuman supersoldier who looks like an alien out of ''Anime/DragonBallZ''--with pointed ears, no nose, no hair at all, and a third eye on his forehead.
