History YMMV / Wereworld

* ClicheStorm: A humble farm-boy discovers upon reaching manhood, that he is [[LastOfHisKind the last of his line]], related to a villain by blood, is destined to take the throne, quickly becomes a total badass, inspires people to rebel against a corrupt king, even ends up winning the heart of a princess he rescues... fortunately that's just the first couple books. [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome Book 2 begins with him being given all sorts of crash courses in history given that he never grew up educated and learning actual fighting techniques, and people getting in trouble when he goes out recklessly]].

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: The other lions - Leopold's father, during his brief screentime, shows that he is as passionate as all the other Catlords, but has far more reason within him than his son and grandson. Despite him holding a strong [[ApeShallNotKillApe Lion shall not bite Lion]] rule even ''he'' sees Lucas is a CompleteMonster and is pondering breaking that rule ''just'' for him. Sadly, [[spoiler: Lucas kills him]], and we do not get to know of things from their point of view.

** [[SnakesAreSinister Vala the wereserpent]], from the first two books and the fourth book, is the [[AGodAmI self-proclaimed goddess]] of the cannibalistic Wyldermen, who offer her human and werecreature alike. Defeated by Drew, she plotted her revenge against him and those he cares about. First she [[DeadPersonImpersonation killed and impersonated]] the crone Baba Korga, pretending to be an ally of Whitley and using her to enter Five Oaks unnoticed. During her "[[FauxAffablyEvil friendly talk]]" with Whitley, she revealed her biggest atrocity: During the journey, she devoured innocent Romari children when no one was watching. She then explains her intentions of turning the Dyrewood into her realm, where she and the Wyldermen can kill and eat with impunity. She also mentioned her plan of using Whitley as bait to attract Drew, and in an act of "mercy", she promises to kill Whitley quickly after she had dispatched Drew. Prideful, petty, and convinced that she had the right to kill and devour whenever she wanted, she [[FantasticRacism saw humans as nothing but food and other Therianthropes as weaklings]].
** [[ThreateningShark Deadeye the wereshark]], the captain of the ''Hellhound'' in the employ of Lord Ghul in the 5th book ''Storm of Sharks'', makes a name for himself on the White Sea as a practitioner of brutal violence and rampant [[ImAHumanitarian cannibalism]]. Attacking the smuggler ship ''Lucky Shot'' upon learning of the presence of werelords on it, Deadeye slaughters many of the crew himself and eats its captain alive before taking those who remain as his prisoners and slaves. Holding a [[StalkerWithACrush special affinity]] for the werelord Whitley, Deadeye subjects Whitley to his perverted attentions whilst keeping her collared, informing Whitley's intention to make her his bride in between subtle hints of violence. Upon being attacked by the ''Maelstrom'', Deadeye snaps and starts massacring both enemy soldiers and [[BadBoss his own men]], brutally tearing apart Captain Ransome's young friend Hob shortly before his own death.

** Vincent the wereboar, initially the scheming twin brother of Baron Hector who inadvertently causes his father's death and ends up dead in an attempt to murder Hector for the throne of the Dalelands, ends up becoming far more evil than even his brother could have predicted upon becoming a [[OurGhostsAreDifferent vile]]. Haunting Hector and [[DrivenToMadness driving him to gradual madness]], Hector [[TheCorrupter turns his once-noble brother into a murderer and a torturer of innocents]], eagerly convincing him to slaughter his former allies and all the witnesses to this—including, in one case, a harmless [[WouldHurtAChild cabin boy]]-- ultimately precipitating Hector's betrayal of the Wolf's Council and sell-out of the Dalelands to the evil Prince Lucas. Upon devouring the spirit of Hector's old mentor and seizing Icegarden, Vincent becomes far more proactive in his brother's schemes, eagerly [[ColdBloodedTorture torturing]] Duchess Freya for weeks on end in order to wrestle the Wyrmstaff out of her and accidentally influencing his murder of Queen Amelie, of which Vincent cruelly taunts Hector about. Eventually, tired of his brother's unused potential, Vincent overtakes and [[DemonicPossession fully possesses]] Hector himself, keeping his brother's mind aware and helpless as he slaughters and resurrects even his own allies, keeping their souls tortuously bound to their dead bodies for his own advantage. Rechristened Lord Blackhand, Vincent starts [[{{Necromancer}} resurrecting the dead]] by the thousands to slaughter all in their wake, decorating Icegarden's walls with the bodies of those he's slaughtered and driving his legions in a crusade to destroy whatever cannot be dominated. Vincent goes from a smug, would-be warlord to a corrupter, a literal monster, and an eventual tyrant who becomes a greater threat than even than Prince Lucas himself, and eventually dies as one of the greatest threats to have ever scourged the Seven Realms.
