11[[folder:In General]]
12!!Tropes that apply to the Roland Empire as a whole:
13* AntiVillain: [[spoiler:Once Sion betrays Ryner, the Roland army consequently becomes this.]]
14* AristocratsAreEvil: Nobility everywhere tend to be pretty bad, but Roland's got some of the worst.
15* AssholeVictim: Are you ''really'' going to feel sorry for the nobles?
16* BadassArmy: Special mention goes to the force that worked together to put Sion on the throne, with notable members including Claugh, Calne, Luke, and Miller.
17* BadassFamily: They've got two: the Eris clan, otherwise known as the clan in charge of protecting the royal family, and the Silwelt clan, their spear (and less respected) equivalent.
18* BioAugmentation: Roland was once infamous for running human experiments in order to produce SuperSoldiers.
19* ChildSoldiers: Roland loves them.
20%% * DarkAndTroubledPast
21* ADayInTheLimelight: Many of them get chapters or short stories in side series explaining their pasts.
22* DysfunctionJunction: Whoo boy. The entire cast of the series counts as one, but Roland in particular is a breeding ground for issues.
23%% * TheEmpire
24* LaResistance: During the two-year timeskip, a fair number of characters were part of one, led by Miller.
25* TheMole: In order to start the revolution that made Sion king, various characters had to plot from within the army.
26* OrphanageOfFear: They've had a few, which were secretly hellish training institutions.
27%% * ParentalAbandonment
28* ShellShockedVeteran: Having seen the horrors of war repeatedly, most of them are pretty desensitized by now.
29* SuperSoldier: The result of the aforementioned BioAugmentation.
30* TrainingFromHell: If they're a named character and are a badass, then more likely than not, they've gone through this.
31* TragicVillain: [[spoiler:Members of the royal family and the Eris clan, while frequently overlapping with AssholeVictim, ultimately classify due to their descent into insanity typically being due to supernatural influences.]] Lieral speculated once that the entire country could be cursed, given how baffling it is that there's just so much corruption.
32* TrueCompanions: The Taboo Breaker Pursuit Squad are very tight-knit. Averted otherwise; Roland has enough internal conflict, both on a large scale (primarily with Estabul, its territory) and on a small scale that it's sometimes amazing that it hasn't fallen apart yet.
33* {{Tykebomb}}: Any top badass has likely been training from a ''very'' young age.
34* VillainProtagonist: [[spoiler:The country becomes this by the sequel.]]

41
42Sion's bodyguard. The head of the distinguished sword clan of Eris and Ferris and Iris' older brother. He killed his parents to save Ferris and become the head. Due to the nature of his powers, he currently cannot step foot outside of Roland.
43----
44%% * TheAgeless
45* AloofAlly: He'll help out Sion as part of his duties as his guard, but isn't exactly the most supportive ally (or above occasionally leaving Sion to fend for himself to prove his worth).
46%% * AloofBigBrother
47* AntiHero: Seems to have ended up somewhere in this spectrum.
48%% * AntiMagic
49* BadassFamily: Comes from one.
50* TheBeautifulElite: As an Eris.
51* BigDamnHeroes: He saves Ferris just before [[spoiler:Froaude]] kills her.
52* BigScrewedUpFamily: Again, the Eris family is this.
53* BlessedWithSuck: One of the most powerful people around, but considering the price of it all... Well, at least [[LoveMakesYouCrazy it was worth it in his eyes]].
54%% * BlueBlood
55* BreakThemByTalking: Does this to Ryner, though it doesn't last for long.
56* BroughtDownToBadass: [[spoiler:After Remurus's interference, causing him to lose what he won from the SuperpowerLottery. Still an [[BadassFamily Eris]] though, not to mention the ancient magic Lieral gave him]].
57* CallingTheOldManOut: [[spoiler:Right before he kills him.]]
58* CannibalismSuperpower: [[spoiler:He can devour Goddesses to obtain their power]].
59* CastFromLifespan: He can heal others' wounds by transferring his own life force.
60%% * ChessmasterSidekick
61* TheChooserOfTheOne: One of the Eris house's duties is to test the king [[spoiler:and see if he can handle the Mad Hero]].
62%% * DarkAndTroubledPast
63* DeclarationOfProtection: You get three guesses as to whom the {{Protectorate}} is and the first two don't count.
64%% * DissonantSerenity
65* [[DontTellMama Don't Tell Ferris]]: He really would rather Ferris be clueless to everything he's done to protect her.
66* TheDreaded: Even among Sion's allies.
67* EmotionlessBoy: Used to be one, and in a way, he's still one and even more so than Ferris.
68%% * EnemyWithin
69* EnigmaticMinion: Somewhat of an in-universe example. Aside from Sion, nobody quite knows what Lucile's agenda is, but grudgingly accept his role as the king's guard mostly because no one can defeat him in any case.
70* ExtremeDoormat: Like Ferris, he used to be one. Then she was born and [[KnightTemplarBigBrother he started to gain his own will]].
71%% * EyesAlwaysShut
72%% * FauxAffablyEvil
73* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler:The [[BigScrewedUpFamily Eris household]] was not a nice place to grow up in for Relx/Lucile. By his family's standards, which essentially demanded sociopathy, the most ''abnormal'' thing about Lucile is that he even developed any sense of humanity, thanks to Ferris]].
74* TheGadfly: He's fond of teasing his sisters and Sion.
75%% * GenderBlenderName
76* HazyFeelTurn: After making amends with Ferris, he officially becomes Ryner's ally, albeit a very begrudging one.
77%% * HealingFactor
78* HealingShiv: He can summon one.
79* HorrorHunger: [[spoiler:Thanks to the God Devourer curse in him]].
80%% * [[spoiler:ImHavingSoulPains
81* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: What seems to be his real personality beneath his FauxAffablyEvil surface, even if the heart of gold applies mainly to Ferris.
82%% * KnightTemplarBigBrother
83* LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:Lieral sealed away some of his memories, though Lucile eventually undoes the seal]].
84* LaughingMad: When he [[spoiler:killed his father]].
85%% * LoveMakesYouCrazy
86%% * LoveMakesYouEvil
87* MessianicArchetype: He's determined to be a martyr for his family, and on top of that, [[spoiler:being the other half of the Lonesome Demon, he's to meet the same fate as Ryner, as noted in Ryner's section]].
88* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Not above invading Sion's, at least.
89* NominalHero: He cares about... Ferris. That's pretty much it.
90* NotSoStoic: As he's usually in complete control of the situation, he starts losing his cool whenever he ''isn't.''
91%% * OneManArmy
92%% * [PastLifeMemories
93* PetTheDog: In spite of how... screwed up he is, he does have his moments with Ferris.
94%% * PsychoticSmirk
95* {{Reincarnation}}: [[spoiler:He's Ryner's other half.]]
96* SanitySlippage: [[spoiler:He was a rather screwed up and hollow child, but not exactly insane. Then he met Lieral, and things went downhill from there]].
97* SelfMadeOrphan: [[spoiler:Killed his parents in order to stop their AttemptedRape on Ferris]].
98* ShroudedInMyth: As very few characters have actually met him, his existence is more of a rumour than anything. In his case, however, he really is as terrifying as the rumours state.
99%% * TheSleepless
100%% * SociopathicHero
101%% * SoftSpokenSadist
102%% * StealthHiBye
103* StepfordSmiler: As Iris puts it, the fact that he's always smiling is pretty scary.
104* StoryBreakerPower: Due to a variety of nullifying abilities, his HealingFactor, and ability to appear and disappear at will, he's nearly untouchable. That said, he has no reason to involve himself with anything unless it concerns Sion or Ferris.
105%% * SuperpowerLottery
106* TearsOfBlood: [[spoiler:When meeting the Eris demon for the first time]].
107* ToughLove: He's strict when it comes to his sisters' training--Iris complains that that's all Lucile ever wants her to do, and even [[TheStoic Ferris]] starts to sweat when Lucile suggests that she hasn't been training enough.
108* TranquilFury: When attacking Froaude for trying to kill Ferris to the point where it's hard to tell if he's even angry (and he claims not to be, at least).
109* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: He was nicer as a kid, at least, but no less casual at the thought of killing others. [[spoiler:For starters, him plotting to kill his parents started several years before he actually did it]].
110%% * TykeBomb
111%% * TheUnfettered
112* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: His StealthHiBye tendencies or appearing as a disembodied voice. Ferris is entirely used to it by now, Sion eventually adjusts as well, and Ryner's left to wonder where the heck that voice is coming from.
113* UnwittingPawn: Lieral's, though in a strange variation in that [[spoiler:he knew Lieral was manipulating him when he accepted his proposal, but doesn't remember for the next several years due to Lieral wiping his memory of their meeting]].
114* UsedToBeASweetKid: Manages to combine this with TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior. Lieral even noted that back then that he seemed kind--and so he'd probably suffer for that.
115* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Like brother, like sister. In his case, though, Lieral was the one who explained it to him.
116%% * WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity
117* TheWorfEffect: Effortlessly beats most characters... except for Lieral, [[spoiler:Milk Ephillet]], and Remurus.

125Ferris and Lucile's little sister. Acts as a messenger between Ryner & Ferris and Sion.
126----
127%% * BadassAdorable
128%% * BadassFamily
129%% * TheBeautifulElite
130* BigScrewedUpFamily: Unlike her siblings, however, she hasn't been affected much by it.
131%% * [[BigBrotherWorship Big Sister Worship]]
132%% * BlueBlood
133%% * CheerfulChild
134* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Being around Ferris probably doesn't help.
135%% * CuteBruiser
136%% * CuteButCacophonic
137* GirlishPigtails: Of the young and LittleMissBadass variety.
138%% * LittleMissBadass
139%% * NightmareFuelStationAttendant
140* OnlyMostlyDead: [[spoiler:Froaude just about succeeds in killing her, but [[SuperPowerLottery Lucile]] revives her from the brink of death]].
141%% * ParentalAbandonment
142* ParentalNeglect: [[spoiler:Compared to Ferris, who was abused physically, their parents ignored Iris entirely]].
143%% * PinkIsFeminine
144%% * PintSizedPowerhouse
145* PluckyGirl: She's got to be one, considering how cheerful she ended up despite her BigScrewedUpFamily.
146%% * ThirdPersonPerson
147%% * TortureTechnician
148* UndyingLoyalty: She utterly ''adores'' Ferris, and apparently has no reservations about [[spoiler:abandoning her home to follow her when Ferris and Ryner becomes fugitives]].

155
156Sion's right hand man, as one of his longest standing subordinates. Currently in the rank of Field Marshal, he's Roland's most famous soldier and popular among the Roland army. Has a romantic relationship with Lady Noa Ehn.
157----
158%% * AbusiveParents: His mother.
159* [[spoiler:AntiVillain: After Ryner ends up against Roland. He'll massacre the Nelpha people as ordered, but is by no means happy about it and, to an extent, is willing to help Ryner out]].
160* AnArmAndALeg: [[spoiler:Tiir rips off and devours his arm]].
161* ArtificialLimbs: He replaces his arm with a prosthetic [[spoiler:after Tiir rips it off]].
162%% * AuthorityEqualsAsskicking
163* BadassTransplant: [[spoiler:Even though he has a prosthetic, he can still kick major ass]].
164* BastardUnderstudy: A heroic version towards Count Emirel who was, well, a douche, to put it lightly.
165* BenevolentBoss: Is willing to die for his subordinates if need be. They're just as willing to die for ''him''.
166* BestServedCold: [[spoiler:He waited just a bit too long--Luke beat him to it. He also fails to exact revenge against Tiir, who proceeds to do even worse and completely devour his arm this time]].
167* TheBigGuy: Sion's strongman.
168* BioAugmentation: [[spoiler:His mother was experimented on to produce a child like him, who is resistant to curses]].
169%% * BoisterousBruiser
170* ChildByRape: With him being the child, as his mother [[spoiler:was experimented on and raped--see BioAugmentation]].
171* ChildSoldier: Much like many of the other characters, he basically grew up in the military.
172* ChildhoodFriends: With Luke, though Claugh would deny it if you asked.
173* ChivalrousPervert: Before meeting Noa, he's not above making the occasional lewd comment. Once Noa enters the picture, however, he's a gentleman.
174%% * CurtainsMatchTheWindow
175* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: [[spoiler:His second arm comes with one]].
176%% * DarkAndTroubledPast
177* DecliningPromotion: He really, really doesn't want to be a Field Marshal, as it involves more paperwork and less field work than the lower rankings. Unlike the other examples on this page, however, nobody cares and so he ends up in the position.
178* DeliberatelyCuteChild: Was one when young, seeing as how he couldn't just tell the Emirel Private Forces, "Hey, I know what you're up to and I want to kill you all."
179* DissonantSerenity: He's had his moments, most prominently during the incident in which he met Luke.
180* TheDreaded: It comes with being one of Roland's top and most reknowned soldiers.
181%% * FieryRedhead
182* {{Foil}}: To Luke. See Luke's section for more info.
183* FourStarBadass: It's even noted on a few occasions that with his ranking, Claugh doesn't actually need to be on the front lines, but he chooses to be anyway.
184* GeniusBruiser: While called a muscled idiot and the like by others, he's also a magic genius and was rather studious as a child.
185%% * HeroicBastard
186* HeterosexualLifePartners: He and Luke occasionally have shades of this, especially in ''The Legend of the Fallen Dark Hero'', though even in the main storyline, they tend to mention/think of each other often.
187* HiddenWeapons: His Emirel Private Forces uniform involved many, as revealed in a design sketch, with most of them [[NothingUpMySleeve up his sleeves]].
188* IJustWantToBeSpecial: As a child, thanks to his mother's dying words.
189%% * JerkWithAHeartOfGold
190%% * KungFuWizard
191* LadyAndKnight: The Knight to Noa's Lady. Lampshaded by her when she comments that the knight's duty is to save the DamselInDistress.
192* [[LittleMissBadass Little Mister Badass]]: Effortlessly caught an arrow in mid-air--and he was ''five''. Despite being a kid with no training whatsoever, he was confident he could take down a group of bandits, and while we didn't get to see him try, that might not have been overconfidence on his part.
193%% * MadeOfIron
194* TheMole: His intentions by staying with the Emirel Private Forces, though it's brought to an end once Emirel dies.
195* MyMasterRightOrWrong: [[spoiler:He doesn't necessarily like all of what Sion does, but he does understand his reasons for it and remains genuinely loyal in spite of it all. Subverted, though, in that, again, he does understand Sion's reason for it--and so if Sion ever stops behaving reasonably, then this trope may no longer apply.]]
196* NothingUpMySleeve: See HiddenWeapons.
197* ObfuscatingStupidity: Back during his days with the Emirel Private Forces.
198%% * OneManArmy
199* OrphansOrdeal: See ParentalAbandonment. He was also determined to validate his mother's existence by proving that he was a "special child" as she'd claimed.
200* TheParagon: During the revolution, he managed to inspire much of the enemy forces to believe that Roland could truly change and to defect to his side. Points for making it a (would-be) dying speech too.
201* ParentalAbandonment: His mother was killed when he was young, prompting him to spend a large portion of his life plotting to kill the Emirel Private Forces in revenge.
202%% * PowerTattoo
203* RedBaron: Crimson Finger Claugh. [[spoiler:Later, The Black Hand Death God]].
204* RescueRomance: With Noa.
205* {{Revenge}}: Plotted this against Count Emirel as a child. In the present, he intends to exact revenge against Tiir for wrecking his arm in the past.
206* RightHandOfDoom: His magic.
207* SavedByCanon: Appears to die in ''The Legend of the Fallen Dark Hero'', which takes place before the main series, but given that he's still up and kicking...
208* SoleSurvivor: [[spoiler:Of Rei Stokkart's experiment when he was five, along with Luke]].
209%% * SuperSoldier
210* SupportingLeader: During the climax of the revolution, while Sion was dealing with the king, it was Claugh out at the frontlines, dealing with the majority of the actual warfare.
211* TerrorHero: A Type 3. He likes to scare his opponents into surrendering by using his reputation or demonstrating ''why'' he has such a reputation.
212* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: He was bit ''too'' casual as a child about the idea of killing others.
213* {{Tsundere}}: He shows a bit of this towards Luke, exemplified during their reunion where he was slightly glad to see that Luke had survived... and then annoyed over being glad.
214%% * TykeBomb
215* VitriolicBestBuds: With Calne. Additionally, while he and Luke don't get to interact much in the present, they were this while growing up--understandable, seeing as how it's [[TheGadfly Luke]].
216* WouldHurtAChild: Had no problems with beating up the then 10-year-old Calne and spared him primarily because Calne could be useful.
217* YouShallNotPass: He ''tries'' to do this when up against Tiir... before Bayuuz carries him off.

224
225Claugh's vice-officer, and long-time friend and subordinate who fought alongside him during the revolution.
226----
227* AdaptationDyeJob: In the anime, his hair is more of a brown-ish shade, with his eyes the same colour, compared to the novels where his eyes are green and his hair is blond.
228* AlliterativeName: '''Sh'''uss '''Sh'''irazz
229* AntiVillain: [[spoiler:In the same manner as Claugh, of course. Shuss remains civil with Ryner, even warning him on Claugh's orders about what Sion's up to and that he should run while he can.]]
230* BerserkButton: Insulting Claugh. Subverted, though, as he was faking it as part of his plan.
231* BewareTheNiceOnes: Generally polite and civil, but don't you dare insult Claugh--or [[SubvertedTrope at least he pretends this is the case]].
232%%* ChildSoldier
233* DecliningPromotion: So that he can continue to work under Claugh.
234* DistressedDude: [[spoiler:Briefly held hostage against Claugh by Ryner and Ferris.]]
235* DressingAsTheEnemy: During the climax of the revolution.
236* GuileHero: His main moment of glory demonstrates his ability as this.
237* HypercompetentSidekick: Bayuuz would claim this to be the case, at least.
238* LongHairedPrettyBoy: In the novels, he has long hair.
239* MoreHeroThanThou: He informs Claugh that the reason he has to always stay by the man is because he knows Claugh would throw away his life, and so Shuss has to be there to do it for him at least once.
240* NumberTwo: He is Claugh's right hand man.
241* ParentalAbandonment: His family's explicitly said to be dead.
242* TheReliableOne: For Claugh, who notes that Shuss could stand to be a little ''less'' serious about his duties.
243* SatelliteCharacter: To Claugh.
244* SubordinateExcuse: As commented on, Shuss should be around the same ranking as Calne, but he only wants to serve directly under Claugh.
245* UndyingLoyalty: To Claugh. Virtually the only thing Shuss has done outside of Claugh's wishes and that was unrelated to Claugh's well-being was preferring to follow Sion over Miller, and even then, he would've ultimately gone with Claugh had Claugh chosen not to go with him first.

253
254Sion's left hand man, due to having served him during the revolution, and currently holds the position of Major General. Deals with domestic affairs.
255----
256* AnchoredShip: With Eslina, thanks to his attachment problems.
257* BastardUnderstudy: Like Claugh, he was one to Count Emirel, but especially one to Rei, who was bragging to Claugh about how Calne was her greatest student... right before he knocked her out.
258* BestServedCold: Like Claugh above, he tried--but not only did Claugh beat him in the fight for the 'right' to kill their mutual target, [[spoiler:Luke beat them both anyway]].
259%%* CantActPervertedTowardALoveInterest
260%%* TheCasanova
261* ChildSoldier: Same story as Claugh.
262* DissonantSerenity: During his FaceDeathWithDignity moment. He's still as light-hearted as ever while [[spoiler:locked up in a prison and deprived of food and water]].
263* DistressedDude: [[spoiler:He's eventually captured by the Remurus Empire]].
264* EmotionlessBoy: Comes across as this as a child, though it's all a front.
265* FaceDeathWithDignity: Intends to do this when [[spoiler:a captive in the Remrus Empire]], to the point where he refuses to think about anything that might make him want to keep on living.
266* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Fully believes that Eslina deserves better than a playboy and soldier like him, and so despite being aware of her feelings and liking her back, he would rather have her find someone else.
267%%* InsecureLoveInterest
268* LadyKillerInLove: He falls for Eslina.
269* LetsGetDangerous: One of Sion's more light-hearted allies, but still competent when he gets serious.
270%%* LikesOlderWomen
271* [[LittleMissBadass Little Mister Badass]]: While he got his ass kicked by Claugh, he was one of Emirel's best soldiers by the age of ten.
272* TheMole: Again, in the same situation as Claugh.
273* NotAfraidToDie: He very much tries to be this when [[spoiler:captured in the Remrus Empire and believing that they're leaving him to starve to death]].
274* ParentalAbandonment: According to him, he doesn't even remember his parents.
275* {{Revenge}}: Like Claugh, he was aiming for this against Count Emirel.
276* ShippingTorpedo: Thinks that Claugh should either marry Noa and retire from being a soldier or break up with her (and since Claugh's still needed in the army, the latter's more plausible). It has nothing to do with them personally, but Calne's belief that soldiers shouldn't get into committed relationships.
277%%* TykeBomb
278* UnderestimatingBadassery: He was reputed amongst the Emirel Private Forces to be superior to Claugh, which Claugh then proved to be untrue when they actually met.
279* VitriolicBestBuds: Even though he argues with Claugh, they're still friends.

287A commoner whom Sion hires as his secretary after helping him save his sister. He idolizes Sion.

289* AlliterativeName: '''F'''iole '''F'''olkal.
290%%* BigBrotherInstinct
291%%* [[spoiler:BloodFromTheMouth]]
292* DespairEventHorizon: Nearly crosses this after failing to save Eslina, but Sion stops him.
293* DiesWideOpen: [[spoiler:After his death, his eyes remain open]].
294* DrivenToSuicide: After his failed assassination attempt, he requests that Sion, whom he believes to be an assassin, to kill him, as he no longer sees a point in living. Fortunately, Sion obviously doesn't comply.
295* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:His reaction when Klausberr and the assassins enter his room? Smile and comment on how Sion's going to blame himself for this]].
296* HeroicSelfDeprecation: He has difficulty letting go of his status as a commoner and thus the notion that someone of his standing doesn't deserve happiness.
297* HeroWorshipper: He's very, very grateful to Sion, shall we say. See: his letter to Eslina, half of which is him gushing over Sion.
298* IOweYouMyLife: To Sion, for saving Eslina and providing a commoner like him with opportunities he never had before.
299%%* KillTheCutie
300* MySisterIsOffLimits: Fiole hints that he wouldn't mind Sion marrying Eslina one day, averting this trope himself. Calne, on the other hand, believes in this, as one of the many reasons why he won't pursue Eslina.
301%%* NiceGuy
302* OrphansOrdeal: It's noted that Eslina is the sole reason Fiole was able to move on from their parents' deaths, hence his significant attachment to her.
303* ParentalAbandonment: His parents died in the war years ago, leaving him and Eslina to grow up in an orphanage.
304* PosthumousCharacter: In the novels, [[spoiler:where he only has one scene before dying. Any other scene and his first meeting with Sion are either flashbacks or revealed in the short stories later on]].
305%%* PromotionToParent

She's really just that strong.

339One of Sion's more recently hired subordinates, currently a Lieutenant General, who often uses more underhanded and immoral means to accomplish his tasks. Nevertheless, he is very loyal to Sion, whom he views as his ideal king.

353* EvilCounterpart: He has a counterpart in Gastark's Lir Orla. Both are {{Sarcastic Devotee}}s who operate in the shadows and do their respective king's wetwork using a ring of power. Which one of them is the evil counterpart and which one is the good counterpart is up in the air, given the moral ambiguity of the series.
354%%* EvilOrphan
355* EvilerThanThou: Though he and Vois agree that Vois is this between them, Vois wavers in what is one of his few PetTheDog moments, and so Froaude is actually the bigger {{Jerkass}}.

426A girl from the same orphanage as Ryner. Now a lieutenant and the captain of the Taboo Breaker Pursuit Squadron, she's under orders to apprehend Ryner. [[spoiler:She's also the reincarnation of a Goddess, otherwise known as Milk Ephillet.]]

441* DeathSeeker: After nearly crossing the DespairEventHorizon, she was ready to die until Ryner chewed her out for it.
442* DefusingTheTykebomb: A variation, in that [[ThePollyanna Milk]] doesn't need defusing, per se, but her team works hard to give her the childhood she never had and the chance to be a normal girl.
443* DespairEventHorizon: Came close to crossing this during her childhood, but Ryner saved her from it.

458* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Her team tries to hide [[spoiler:how dark Roland still is]] from her so that she can stay happy, though she doesn't appreciate it and catches on anyway.
459* MagneticHero: In a CrapsackWorld, people tend to find her innocence refreshing. [[spoiler:Again, the brainwashing helps]].

492A member of the Taboo Breaker Pursuit Squadron. Despite being only a sergeant, he's one of Sion's longstanding subordinates alongside Claugh and Calne.

494* AlmightyJanitor: He's a lowly sergeant--and one of Sion's best subordinates.
495%%* AntiHero
496* AntiVillain: [[spoiler:He can be considered one in his and Claugh's first meeting, and then he's one again in Remrus's tower. See HeroAntagonist for more details regarding the second one.]]
497* AwesomeByAnalysis: He could tell that a group of people had been trained in Roland just by the way they ''moved''.
498* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler:He's been aware of Milk's brainwashing from the start and stayed by her side in case he would one day have to kill her. In the end, though, he seems to genuinely care for her on some level--which should be impossible for him and which he embraces]].

512* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: As both Claugh and Ryner note, Luke's manipulative nature and occasional competitiveness don't go with his kindergarten teacher-esque appearance.
513* FakingTheDead: Did this in the past to [[spoiler:escape the Emirel Private Forces]].
514* FalseReassurance: If one pays attention, when Luke first meets Claugh, he tells him [[spoiler:he has a plan to overcome the situation and that there's merit in helping him. In the end, there was merit--for ''Luke''--and he didn't specify that ''Claugh'' would be escaping]].
515* FamilyOfChoice: The Taboo Breaker Pursuit Squadron is this to him. [[spoiler:Or so he claims/would like to believe, though the truth might be iffier.]]
516* {{Foil}}: Whereas Claugh is [[FieryRedhead temperamental]], [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking of high ranking]], and typically [[GeniusBruiser fights using sheer power]], Luke is [[TheSpock calm]], [[AlmightyJanitor always of low ranking]], and [[WeakButSkilled fights using tricks and wit]].

556* UndyingLoyalty: Towards Milk. [[spoiler:The fact that he's emotionless and the truth of her brainwashing complicate this, and Luke knows that it likely wasn't originally of his own will, but regardless, he admits that she means more to him than the world.]]
557* TheUnfettered: He's shown several shades of this, devoting his life to cleansing the corruption in Roland, and as mentioned under TheSpock, Lieral believes him to be this. [[spoiler:As also mentioned, Luke happily subverts this in the end.]]

600----
601* TheAce: Though he doesn't see himself as one.
602* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Interestingly enough, he mixes this with being an AlmightyJanitor. He's the highest up and strongest among the Taboo Breaker Pursuit Squad, but being the commander of that squad isn't a glamorous job, and so he's ''still'' far more competent than his rank would suggest.
603* BrokenPedestal: For Germer, once she realized that the rumours of him being an ExtremeDoormat for the nobles were true. [[HappilyMarried Needless to say, she eventually got over it]].
604%%* TheComicallySerious
605* CoolOldGuy: Not exactly ''old'', as he's only in his thirties, but still older than most of the cast.
606* DecliningPromotion: He can accomplish more if eyes aren't on him all the time.
607* ExtremeDoormat: Pretended to be one for the nobles.
608* FullNameBasis: He even calls his ''wife'' by her full name. Namely because he's still trying to get used to the idea, having never expected to get married with the way Roland was.

610* HiddenHeartOfGold: Pretended to be completely loyal to the nobles in the past so as to cover up his true motives.

639* TrainingFromHell: Put her students through this.
