12* BloodKnight: "Killing equals honor!"
13* ComedicSociopath
14--> ''I am far too brave to grant you mercy!''
15%%* CuttingTheKnot
16* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He's terrifying and pretty annoying to his group, and probably unaware that Nara was planning to take the Sword of Fighting for herself.
17%%* GlorySeeker
18%%* HeroicComedicSociopath
19* LargeHam: ``"ONWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD"''
20* LethalJokeCharacter: Kills [[spoiler: Perf]] at the end of season 3.
21* MurderIsTheBestSolution: After expressing his annoyance at the party unable to find a route into the Tomb of Doom, he notes he didn't kill thousand of orcs in the party's path just to have their path blocked...
22-->'''Carrow:''' Yes, about that. I'm not quite sure you had to kill all those orcs.\
23'''Glorion:''' I...I... don't follow.\
24'''Carrow:''' Uh...uhm... You killed every single orc to cross our path. And some that were nowhere near our path. I'm not entirely positive that was necessary.\
25'''Glorion:''' ''[grinning]'' You've lost me.\
26'''Carrow:''' You killed every last orc in that village.\
27'''Perf:''' And that retirement village.\
28'''Glorion:''' Well, I was too brave too spare the elderly.\
29'''Carrow:''' ''[stunned]'' The women... the children...\
30'''Glorion:''' Killing equals honor!
31** Hilarious summed up in this ''WebVideo/JourneyQuest'' "Virtues" trailer for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2MIzjQZo8Y4 Honor]].
32%%* NoIndoorVoice
33* ObliviouslyEvil: Murders children and elderly, all with a dorky smile on his face.
34* SoreLoser: Perf bests him in a duel, so [[spoiler: he kills him]].
35* TooDumbToFool: Barrels his way through the Temple of All Dooms, passing trials designed for traditionally-minded heroes with blunt force.
36
37!!Perf/[[spoiler:Henly]]
38->''Look, I didn't exactly volunteer!''
39
40* AllLoveIsUnrequited: In love with Nara, who largely ignores him.
41* ChosenOne: Ends up becoming the chosen bearer of the Sword of Fighting.
42%%* DeadpanSnarker
43* DisabilitySuperpower: Has the ability to retrocast because of [[spoiler: his dyslexia]]
44* TheDragAlong: He keeps trying to leave the quest.
45* EmbarrassingTattoo: "Meat Henge", on his stomach. With an arrow pointing downward.
46* IneptMage: He's utterly incompetent at normal magic. [[spoiler:Luckily, he's the best the most powerful [[AchievementsInIgnorance Retrocaster]] in centuries]].
47* LIsForDyslexia: Strong Like Bull tells him he has a rare gift, and says something ominous in orcish. The subtitle reads "dyslexia."
48%%* LovableCoward
49* MagicMisfire: His spells often go wrong, because of [[spoiler: his dyslexia]].
50* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: The sword of fighting mocks him relentlessly for it.
51* ShoutOut: To [[Literature/{{Discworld}} Rincewind]], fittingly enough.
52%%* SquishyWizard
53* UnfortunateNames: Enforced-- the Wizardium gives its initiates new names based on their best qualities. Not exactly encouraging to be dubbed "Superfluous."
54
55!!Nara
56->''Don't talk to me! Don't say anything, don't do anything! Just sit there and don't contribute while I find us a way out of here.''
57* DeadpanSnarker: Especially towards Perf.
58* MissedTheCall: She was also planning to take the Sword of Fighting, and was extremely displeased when it ended up with Perf.
59* ImprobableAimingSkills: As an elf rogue, it makes sense.
60* IntoxicationEnsues: Spends a good part of season two drugged by the assassin's darts.
61* TheOtherDarrin: Anne Kennedy Brady was unavailable for filming season 3 due to her pregnency, so Alyssa Kay took over the part.
62
63!!Carrow
64->''Is this a punishment, Vieris? For my sins? For abandoning a companion?''
65* CameBackWrong: Perf brings him back as an undead, and it becomes clear as time passes that he's not the kindly cleric he once was (although the crap he endures in his undead form doesn't help).
66%%* DeadpanSnarker
67* InhumanHuman: A soul with memories intact, trapped in a rotting corpse.
68* NotUsingTheZWord: A literal example. He is not a zombie. His mind is still for the most part intact. He's closer to a wight or a revenant.
69* SmiteEvil: Unfortunately, holy magic doesn't like the undead...
70
71!!Wren
72%%* TheBard
73%%* CuteClumsyGirl

83
84[[/folder]]
85[[folder:Orcs]]
86
87!!Rilk
88
89* NotSoAboveItAll: He's more level-headed than his men, but quickly gets flustered when talking to Wren and indulges the others by reciting silly "human" phrases when he drinks a Tongues potion and listening to their advice on courting.
90* [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Orc]]
91%%* TheLeader: as well as...
92%%* TheSmartGuy
93%%* UnresolvedSexualTension: With Wren.
94
95!!Grellnok Skullsplitter
96
97!!Yart Flays-Children
98
99!!Strong Like Bull
100* SquareRaceRoundClass: He's an orcish Archeologist. The other orcs have occasionally referred to the idea of noncombatants as a joke about humans.
101
102[[/folder]]
103[[folder:Villains]]
104
105!!The Wicked Kings
106* BadBoss: They like to kill whoever they're using as a host when they've finished talking.
107* NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering: The kings don't get along very well, and whatever orders or threats they're trying to make tend to be hampered by their bickering and need to make snide personal comments about each other.
108* TalkingToThemself: All the kings possess the same body at once, and whoever they're possessing relays them arguing with each other.
109
110!!The Assassin
111* HunterOfHerOwnKind: Seems to hate elves. It's later revealed that she is one.
112%%* SpyCatsuit

117
118[[folder:Others]]
119
120!!Roderick
121A gargoyle who only tells lies (as in, is physically incapable of telling the truth), forced to help Glorion on his quest for the Sword of Fighting.
122-->''Hey, I volunteered for this! And my friend is still alive, so...''
123%%* BeleagueredAssistant
124* KnightsAndKnaves: The one who always lies.
125* ServileSnarker: Which of course goes right over Glorion's head.
126%%* SnarkyNonhumanSidekick
127
128!!Silver Tom
129->''Feleicitations!''
130%%* TheBard
131%%* TheCasanova
132%%* DiplomaticImpunity
133* ThePornomancer: Introduced as such. Just his description of the tryst he was called away from has every woman in the room (minus the headmaster) ready to jump his bones on the spot.
134
135!!King Karn
136%%* ArrowCatch
137* BattleCouple: With his queen, Starling.
138* ICallItVera: Criminals shall face Justice! That's his axe.
139%%* IgnoredEnemy
140* NobleSavage: Is he ever! His (tyrannical) rule includes free education and health care regardless of social class and birth!
141%%* OffhandBackhand
142* OutOfFocus: Does not appear at all in season 3.
143* PaperThinDisguise: He sneaks out to an inn to talk to a Seer with information on the Sword of Fighting, which could slay the [[BigBad Wicked Kings]] and grant him an unspecified revenge. The only thing he does to disguise himself is put a black scarf over his mouth and nose. Since he's a giant bald black guy who walks around with no shirt all the time, no one's buying it. [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Even the drunks know it's him. (And they're]] ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments really]]'' [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments drunk)]].
144%%* SilenceYouFool
145* WalkingShirtlessScene: Part of why his attempts at disguise suck so much.
146
147!!Starling
148%%* BattleCouple
149%%* DatingWhatDaddyHates
150%%* IgnoredEnemy
151
