* MagnificentBitch: [[ActionGirl Conina the Hairdresser]] is a stunningly beautiful barbarian heroine whose hardened instincts prevent a simple life as a hair stylist. [[ImpossibleTheft An impossibly skilled thief]] who once pickpocketed jewels the victim had swallowed for safekeeping, her theft of the Archchancellor's hat prevents [[BigBad Coin the Sourcerer]] from gaining its powers. Threatening the cowardly wizard [[LovableCoward Rincewind]] into helping her find it a suitable host, she uses her street smarts and weaponized usage of a comb and scissors to lead a journey around the world. During the great magical war in the climax, she outplays an unhelpful genie to force its aid and steals the Four Horsemen's horses to help save the Discworld from an apocalyptic fate.

* CompleteMonster: [[EvilSorcerer Ipslore the Red]], having been thrown out of Unseen University for taking a wife and having children, vowed revenge, his obsession causing him to [[TheDarkSideWillMakeYouForget discard his previous love]]. Siring his eighth son [[RealityWarper Coin]], a [[MagicalSeventhSon sourcerer]]--a wizard cable of creating magic granting them near unlimited power--merely as a tool for revenge, Ipslore cheated Death by binding his spirit to Coin's staff, threatening to [[OffingTheOffspring kill the boy]] should Death remove him. Over ten years [[AbusiveParents Ipslore]] molded Coin into an utterly dependent killing servant, punishing even the slightest defiance with ElectricTorture. Using Coin to murder several wizards to gain him control of the university, as well as killing one for being kind to his young child, Ipslore sets the university loose against the city, turning Lord Vetinari into a lizard and letting the wizards terrorize the helpless population of Ankh-Morpork. Under Ipslore's rule, anyone who attempts to interfere is killed regardless of their inability to stop Coin. Letting his hubris overtake him and still hungry for more power, Ipslore has Coin freeze the Discworld pantheon, now desiring to rule the entire disc, completely uncaring his actions could bring about the collapse of reality itself from the Ice Giants arising or the excess magic attracting the [[EldritchAbomination Things from the Dungeon Dimensions]].

** Don't forget Rincewind. He has it bad in this one, spending a large portion of his POV angsting about the situation he gets into, how important being a wizard is to him (despite the fact that he's completely incompetent) and by the end getting stuck in the Dungeon Dimensions until his next book.

To make matters worse, while future Archchancellor Ridcully genuinely had nothing to do with the incident, it's implied most of the senior faculty of later books (bar Ponder, who was too young, and the Librarian who actively fought against the Sourcerer) were involved in some capacity, though they at least have the decency to feel ashamed about it and downplay their roles (which was implied to be minor at most).
