Line 64:
* [[Honorary Uncle]]
* [[Hostage Situation]]
* [[Humans Are
* [[Humans Are Special]] - Before Nicodemus came into power, only a human adult (always a prominent figure from human history) could rule Dreamland.
* [[Idiot Hero]]: Alex, in spades.
Line 120:
* [[Victorious Childhood Friend]]
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Nicodemus completely loses his composure when the Sword of Kings tells him to his face that {{spoiler|Arthur is long dead and Alex is his successor, as well as the fact that Alex is not a first born of his generation, finding a loophole in one of Dreamland's rules and undermining the dragon's claim to the throne.}}
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: In the flashback to Arthur's time, both {{spoiler|Arthur and Nicodemus seem like this. Arthur just wants to show his enemies the peace in Dreamland to demonstrate they can make their own utopia, however, he knows all to well this could cause a war with the Nightmare Realm, but he at least demonstrates an attack of conscience, being forced to make a choice between potentially seeing Camelot fall and potentially causing a war in Dreamland. His eventual decision to go through with the plan comes with a heavy [[I Did What I Had to Do]] vibe. Nicodemus is firmly stuck on making sure the latter does not happen at any cost, ultimately [[Foregone Conclusion|betraying Arthur]]. While neither are fully in the right, Arthur is a lot more sympathetic, being idealistic and actually considering his options while Nicodemus is fully convinced that Arthur's plan will not work anyway as he thinks [[Humans Are the Real Monsters|Humans Are Bastards]] by nature.}}
* [[We Will Meet Again]]
* [[What Is Evil?]]
