I do not think BlackAndWhiteMorality fits here. Most of the bad guys have some redeeming qualities. De Bracy respects the honour code of chivalry (for example, he refuses Bois-Guilbert\'s offer to rescue him after the siege of Torquilstone) and he sincerely regrets abducting Rowena when he realizes she does not love him. Bois-Guilbert\'s love for Rebecca is sincere and his valor is real (as noted above even Rebecca notes that he has some qualities). Beaumanoir truly thinks that he does the right thing (he truly thinks that Bois-Guilbert was cursed by Rebecca).

De Bracy respects the honour code of chivalry (for example, he does not tell Bois-Guilbert and Front-de-Boeuf that Ivanhoe is his prisoner to protect him, he refuses Bois-Guilbert’s offer to rescue him after the siege of Torquilstone) and he sincerely regrets abducting Rowena when he realizes she does not love him. Bois-Guilbert’s love for Rebecca is sincere and his valor is real (as noted below even Rebecca notes that he has some qualities). Beaumanoir truly thinks that he does the right thing (he truly thinks that Bois-Guilbert was cursed by Rebecca). On the other side, Robin Hood and his men hold the innocuous Aymer and even Isaac to ramson. A drunken Friar Tuck even mauls Isaac. Cedric is a prejudiced man against every Norman. He disowns his own son because he fights for a Norman king. And he throws Gurth in chains because he helped Ivanhoe. So, many good guys have a dark side and many bad guys have a good side.

I\'m teeter-tottering on whether future installments would take Xigbar = Luxu as a LateArrivalSpoiler (e.g. Terranort, Xehanort\'s time travel, etc.) but that\'s speculative anyway.

I moved the Luxu tropes in case future installments would take Xigbar = Luxu as a LateArrivalSpoiler (e.g. Terranort, Xehanort\\\'s time travel, etc.) but that\\\'s speculative anyway.

I could get behind moving Luxu\\\'s entries pertaining to his activities in X and UX proper back to the X chars page and leaving the KH3 tropes over here (because Luxu spends his entire appearance in KH3 \'\'as Xigbar, including the epilogue\'\', while no hints of this exist in KHX).
