* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: {{spoiler|Almost all of the 8 companions have been corrupted by the Guardian and turned into members of his Wyrmguard, serving as the bosses of several of the Glyph Column dungeons (the only exceptions are one who was considered too weak by the Guardian to be worth bothering with, one who was stuck in the Ethereal Void at the time, and one who was busy being dead).}} The Avatar can either redeem them with a [[Puzzle Boss]] fight related to their respective virtue, or just straight up kill them with hacking and slashing.

* [[Idiot Hero]]: The Avatar comes across as one, due to seemingly knowing absolutely nothing, even basic facts, about the world he's explored and been the savior of for the past dozen games. While his dialogue was obviously scripted this way to avoid [[Continuity Lock Out]] for new gamers who haven't played any of the other games, it makes him come across as a complete moron (earlier games handled this much better with [[As You Know]] dialogue instead of giving the Avatar a sudden onset case of complete amnesia).
