- Do Not Call Me "Paul": Dislikes being called Arnold.
- Given Name Reveal: Later, we get to know that Arnie's given name is Arnold, which happened to be very similar to Arnor, famous mythical hero in Foon with legendary achievements, and also you get to shorten your name only if you have achieved deeds twice the famous person, who has same name as you, has.
- Innocently Insensitive: Arnie often unintentionally insults his guests (and sometimes his co-hosts), often by simply not knowing what is or isn't appropriate to say. His co-hosts are usually quick to call him out on it.Arnie, introducing an imp while sitting next to a shapeshifter and a wizard: I'm excited! I feel like it's been a while since we've had a truly magical guest.
Usidore: How dare you? HOW DARE YOU? HOW DARE YOU??
Arnie: I wish that was an intentional insult, but it really-
Chunt: You know I'm a shapeshifter, right?
Arnie: That's true, that's true! Chunt, you are truly magical as well.
Chunt: You're a dick. - Mistaken for Gay: In Foon, the first rumor about anyone is that they're gay, and Arnie's gay rumor is spread by Chunt.

- Casting a Shadow: Usidore uses his shadow manipulation to create objects.
- Inept Mage: Downplayed. Arnie frequently suspects that Usidore can't actually do magic, and he's always going around giving people "magic" rocks that don't do anything. Usidore can actually do magic, but it's pretty underwhelming: he once failed to conjure up a full-sized cow, producing only a dog-sized one, and his magical abilities pale in comparison to Spintax's.

- Light 'em Up: Can light candles with a spell.
- Magic Staff: Usidore's is made of birch, topped with a hexatite crystal.
