 * [[Heroic BSOD]]: He gets a HUGE one after realizing that {{spoiler|all of those people Dumas had him kill were actually innocent people, NOT malfested}}. This comes within literal minutes of him discovering {{spoiler|Dumas is actually Nightmare in disguise, and that his sister actually IS malfested}}. Needless to say, he doesn't take the triple-whammy well.

The style was entirely self-taught, and while Z.W.E.I. notes it to be a pale imitation of Sophitia's and tells Patroklos essentially to [[Be Yourself]], Patroklos still holds up well up until he switches back to his original teachings (from which he goes on to trump enemies he had problems with in the past). That's... pretty [[Badass]], actually.}}

Rothion would convey stories about [[Action Mom|Sophitia]] and her holy mission to destroy Soul Edge.
