Line 38:
* [[Cool Old Lady]]: Selah.
* [[Devil in Plain Sight]]: Come on. His name is ''Dark Lord.''
* [[Don't You Dare Pity Me!]]: Once the player character seriously injures {{spoiler|Devius}}, Julius offers to heal him. Incensed at the very prospect, {{spoiler|Devius refuses... and then ''stabs himself''}}.
* [[Dragon Their Feet]]: Despite the fact that the three {{spoiler|surviving}} members of his [[Five-Bad Band]] are nearby and doing perfectly well, Dark Lord still fights you on his own, outnumbered two to one. May be a case of [[This Is Something He's Got to Do Himself]] on Julius and Isabella's part; definitely a case of dickery on Goremand's.
* [[Elemental Crafting]]: The game uses surprising variety of materials for equipment. There are eight classes of materials and two broad gear categories: fighter-type heavy armor and mage-type light armor. Any given piece of equipment can be made from several different material classes, leading to the hero wearing a bone breastplate and metal gauntlets while the heroine wears a cloth robe and wooden sandals.

* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: Julius.
Line 83:
** [[Morality Chain]]: Dark Lord to Julius. {{spoiler|True to type, he completely succumbs to his Vandole blood right after Dark Lord's death and makes a beeline for the Mana Tree.}}
* [[Mystical Waif]]: Julius to the villains' side, although ''[[Sword of Mana]]'' is far more vague on how he and Dark Lord wound up together than the original ''[[Final Fantasy Adventure]]'', where {{spoiler|Dark Lord was significantly older and Julius was an orphaned child he found in a cave. This does not seem to be the case here, as the two of them are roughly the same age}}.
* [[Now Where Was I Going Again?]]
* [[The Obi-Wan]]: Bogard and Cibba.
* [[Oblivious to Love]]: The hero. So much.
