Counselors and Kings/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Alas, Poor Villain: Kiva
  • Complete Monster: Akhlaur
  • Crazy Awesome: While Tzigone is sane, her plans tend to have strong elements of this; see Refuge in Audacity on the main page.
  • Crowning Moment of Funny: Tzigone gets more than her fair share.
  • Evil Is Sexy: Kiva. Akhlaur's original appearance was this as well, but after two hundred years trapped in the Elemental Plane of Water, he looks distinctly fishy in the main storyline.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Dhamari found a way to artificially turn himself into one of these. Tzigone's mother created an amulet that protected whoever wore it from him. Dhamari later got ahold of it and used it to protect him from himself- preventing him from making mistakes in his scheming. He reverts to his natural Smug Snake level of competence after Tzigone finds out and rips the amulet off him, though.
  • Uncanny Valley: Following a too-close-for-comfort encounter with the magic and life-force-eating laraken, Andris ends up transparent. Needless to say, people tend to have this reaction to him.
  • Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: Kiva does some truly terrible things, but considering how awful her backstory was it's easier to pity her than hate her.
