Line 94:
* [[Heroic Sociopath]]
* [[It's All About Me]]: She makes this clear from square one.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: She's deep in denial about the "heart of gold" part, but it's still there.
* [[Jerkass Woobie]]: Yes, she's a bossy, violent nutcase. It's also implied that she's got some serious issues underneath all of that.
* [[Kick the Son of Aa Bitch]]: To Marietta, if you find Ancardia.
* [[Plucky Girl]]
* [[Psychotic Smirk]]
* [[Rapunzel Hair]]
* [[Rebellious Spirit]]
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: Meria/Melia/Mellia, indeed. "Meria" and "Mellia" are the most commonly accepted Romanizations, but there's a lot of arguing over which one is "right".
* [[Taking the Bullet]]: And watching devil-may-care, me-first Meria do it without a second thought is quite a [[Player Punch]].
* [[Tear Jerker]]: Just... lose against Marietta in Scene 47.
Line 121:
* [[Bishonen]]
* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]
* [[Dying Asas Yourself]]
* [[It's All About Me]]: Somewhat justified during the one scene we actually see him.

Line 140:

* [[Dying Asas Yourself]]
* [[The Ingenue]]
* [[Godiva Hair]]: In her harpy form.
Line 158:
 
* [[Alas, Poor Villain]]
* [[Deal Withwith the Devil]]
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: So you researched the forbidden Unwritten Law in order to let the Tiamat people reclaim their dominion, and they punted you out on your ear because you broke the law. Your reaction is... to return all the worlds to chaos and remake them in your image, no matter who you have to kill? ...Um?
* [[Evil Is Not a Toy]]
Line 166:
* [[Kick the Dog]]
* [[Lone Dalek]]: He's irrefutably a creep and there's not much justification for his plans, but after all the crap he goes through, you have to at least feel a ''teeny'' bit bad for him.
* [[Orcus Onon His Throne]]
* [[Treacherous Advisor]]
 
Line 209:
 
* [[Complete Monster]]
* [[Deal Withwith the Devil]]
* [[Evil Is Not a Toy]]
* [[Karmic Death]]: Not only does she get manipulated and nuked by Zolgonark, who she tried to control, but she herself is ripped out of her body and turned into a Wisp... and then ''torn apart.''.
Line 228:
* [[Body Horror]]
* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]
* [[Dying Asas Yourself]]
* [[Meaningful Name]]
* [[That One Boss]]: He has an attack that can instant-kill any activated knight in his line of sight, despite the fact that he is a ''very'' early boss.
Line 299:
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]
* [[Hoist Byby His Own Petard]]: His plans were well-reasoned, but they still wound up boxing the entire world in. And killing him.
* [[Nice Hat]]
* [[Posthumous Character]]
* [[Too Clever Byby Half]]

Line 364:
:: Marietta
 
A recurring character in the [[Dept Heaven]] series, Marietta is an archangel who appears to be in her twenties but is much older than that. She is one of the most devout servants of the gods, and in the story of Knights, she is sent down to punish the world of Aventheim for building a tower that almost reaches Asgard. Wishing for more power so that she can serve Asgard better, Marietta makes a [[Deal Withwith the Devil]] with Zolgonark, who of course just manipulates her into helping lift his barrier and then splits her soul in two and hides her staff, intending to make her his pawn.
 
In Maria's route, where the two halves of her soul are Maria and Melissa, Marietta's role ends here. In Meria's route, however, Marietta serves as the "good" half and Zolgonark's pawn while Meria is the "bad" half and the heroine. Marietta assumes Melissa's role as the one to kill Willimgard and act as the proverbial thorn in the protagonists' sides, and is ironically a lot nastier than Melissa was. At the end of the game, the player is presented with the option to betray Meria and side with Marietta in order to get an ending resembling the better ones in Maria's route.
Line 370:
More of Marietta's story can be seen in ''[[Yggdra Union]]'' and ''[[Riviera the Promised Land|Riviera]]''.
 
* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: [[In -Universe]]. In Maria's route she's portrayed as a person who genuinely wanted to do good but made a very stupid choice and suffered for it. In Meria's, she comes off as a real [[Jerkass]].
* [[The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard]]
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]
* [[Deal Withwith the Devil]]
* [[Drop the Hammer]]: Meria's route only.
* [[Everything's Better Withwith Sparkles]]: No, it's not. It's really really not.
* [[Eyes of Gold]]
* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: Oh, boy...
Line 406:
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]
* [[Obviously Evil]]
* [[Orcus Onon His Throne]]: He was even ''ever-so-conveniently'' summoned in the throne room.
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: A few Sting books have his name written with a "c" instead of a "k".
* [[That One Boss]]: Especially on the harder difficulties, as his heads respawn shortly after they're killed.
* [[You Have Outlived Your Usefulness]]: Yellma tried this on him and failed. He promptly returns the favor.
Line 441:
* [[Fantastic Racism]]
* [[Light Is Not Good]]
* [[Orcus Onon His Throne]]: ''Again!'' Ito loves this trope in this game.

* [[You Are Number Six]]
Line 475:

Line 602:
An order comprised mostly of female knights, led by Alighierie. They work with the Fifth Order to protect the castle, and are mostly found within its walls instead of outside them. However, its priestesses sometimes get work to support other orders. They're referred to sometimes as the Glamorous Order because of the number of women in it who are thought to be great beauties.
 
The order is comprised of Alighierie, Elizabeth, Anselica, Belta, Carena, Dahlia, Enite, Lucia, and Leggrodda. Ito compares them to a class from an all-girl Catholic school. (Yes, think ''[[Mariasama ga Miteru (Light Novel)|Mari Mite]]''.)
 
* [[Adult Child]]: Dahlia
Line 616:
* [[No Fourth Wall]]: Dahlia.
* [[The One Guy]]: Leggrodda.
* [[Stay in Thethe Kitchen]]: Leggrodda, the only man in the order, is a bit of a chauvinist.
* [[Team Mom]]: Elizabeth.
* [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]]: Enite.
Line 663:
* [[Dying Alone]]: Granitze.
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]] : Minattier, if only by reputation.
* [[Made of Iron]]: Granitze. Notable because, unlike every other human we see facing monsters, this guy took a hit from {{spoiler|Scoppio's}} massive spiked iron mace and ''didn't die instantly.'' We're talking about a monster even '' {{spoiler|Zolgonark}}'' was so afraid of that he had to [[Eye Scream|blind it]] and chain it down, then [[Sealed Evil in Aa Can|seal it away.]] ''And still refers to it as something that is possibly more powerful than himself.''
* [[No Sense of Direction]]: Ermaperche, even though she loves maps.
* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Gert is a popular chef.
Line 704:
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: Bonita, apparently.
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: Bans to Mora.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: Firenzen, an infamous alcoholic who cares a lot about his subordinates.
* [[Kawaiiko]]: Flore and (to some extent) Leier.
* [[Kindhearted Cat Lover]]: Simone

* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: Heckler.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: Otto.
* [[Keet]]: Heckler.
* [[Knight in Sour Armor]]: Otto.
* [[My Beloved Smother]]: Poor Roselipp.
* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]]: Hagen and Otto respectively.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: Michel remarks that he sometimes senses "someone" (Roselipp) staring at him.
* [[Tsundere]]: Roselipp is pretty heavy on the ''deredere'' side.
* [[Twice Shy]]: Roselipp and Michel
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: Otto and Roselipp to the rest of the orders, on the treatment of the Mehse.
* [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]]: Roselipp.
* [[Wide -Eyed Idealist]]: Heckler.
