{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Sort of. He's the only non-playable character from ''Baldur's Gate'' who becomes playable in ''Baldur's Gate II''; he doesn't actually appear in the first game, but he's mentioned in Ajantis' background.
* [[Badass Grandpa]]: He isn't technically a grandpa yet, but as a gray-haired fiftysomething with a late teenage daughter, he's not far off. He's also one of the highest-ranking paladins in Amn, swings a [[BFSBig Freaking Sword|mean greatsword]], smites evil left and right with extreme prejudice, and, in his character epilogue, {{spoiler|dies heroically after single-handedly fighting off an army of giants}}. So he's definitely [[Badass]]. {{spoiler|So [[Badass]], in fact, that his patron deity (that of protection and strength, among others) ''personally claimed him'' upon his death}}. That can't happen too often.
* [[BFSBig Freaking Sword]]
* {{spoiler|[[But Now I Must Go]]: In the good ending to his personal quest, he leaves the party in order to stay with and reconcile with his formerly estranged family. That said, you have the option of subverting this by returning to his mansion the next day. He and his family will happily tell you that their problems are now cleared up, leaving him free to join your party again}}.
* [[The Comically Serious]]: He's a pretty serious guy and fairly humorless compared to Jan, Imoen, Yoshimo and the like.
