Mauve Shirt: George's team of knights all exist to be taken out by Lodac's curses.He's always by his side, among the first (and most frequent) to voice his dislike and distrust of Branton, and is the last of the Knights to fall while aiding George on his quest. The Lancer: Sir Patrick is the closest of the Knights to George.Even Patrick and Dennis, the only knights with an appreciable role, get only rudimentary traits beyond their courage and loyalty (Dennis is a horny Frenchman who can't pass up a pretty girl to save his life, and Patrick is said to be the most devout). Most only have enough dialogue to introduce themselves to the King. Flat Character: George's companions, whose characterization ends at "loyal and brave".In fact, it takes Sybil depowering him by accident to introduce anything resembling danger to the guy. His armor protects him from anything, his horse can run at super speed, and his enchanted sword can kill an ogre and a dragon in a single stab. Heroic Sacrifice: Patrick, already dying from the fifth Curse, sacrifices himself to help George escape.She defeats him in the end only after pilfering his magic ring during a moment of distraction. Notably, there never is an actual "magic duel", as Sybil states early on that she would be no match for Lodac. Good Witch Versus Bad Witch: Sybil v Lodac.Forced Transformation: Lodac turned the Hag into a spider.Evil Plan: Lodac kidnaps Princess Helene and holds her for ransom as vengeance for the King killing his sister.Too bad for him that A) George and his knights join the party and B) Lodac has no intention of honoring the deal. Engineered Heroics: The entire kidnap plot is all a plan between Sir Branton and Lodac so Branton can "rescue" the Princess.Dwindling Party: George revives six knights from all parts of Europe to aid him on his quest, (Spain, France, Germany, Scotland, Ireland, Italy), two of them die when facing the first of the seven deadly challenges between them and the wizard's castle.Disposable Woman: The two princesses before Princess Helena. Death Is Cheap: The party of knights drop like flies throughout the film, then are resurrected at the end.Credits Gag: The person who worked the dragon puppet is listed in the credits as a "dragon trainer".He almost gets done in by way of a different French stereotype, however: the horny Frenchman. Cheese-Eating Surrender Monkeys: Subverted the French knight is probably the bravest out of the crew (except perhaps for Patrick).It's implied that Sybil did it somehow with Lodak's ring.Maybe Lodac's curses had No Ontological Inertia.Back from the Dead: Sir George's band of knights somehow come back to life. Something deadly waits in the shadows something that might consume the world before there's any hope for victory Member ofĬataloging source AUNRT Aveyard, Victoria Dewey number 813.
