161	* FlatCharacter: Compared to The Spitewardens, they are pretty flat and are killed off pretty quickly after being introduced.

182	* AboveGoodAndEvil: He views his research as this.
183	* BlueAndOrangeMorality. The only thing he cares about is his research. He doesn't care if his research is used for good or evil, and is even impressed when he learns how [[spoiler:Hades used his research.]]
184	* CoolChair: Like all dverger, he is never seen without it.
185	* IntriguedByHumanity: He finds The Adventurer very interesting
186	* MadScientist: While a more tame than most versions of this trope, his unusual subject matter coupled with his lack of morality paints him a this.
187	* NonActionGuy: He mentions that he is pretty weak compared to other dvergar, which is in part why he choose the life of study.
188	* APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil: It turns out that [[spoiler:Hades was this. Not that Skokkr cares]]
189	* SlouchOfVillainy:Like his student. For some definition of evil at the very least.
