Drowtales/Awesome

• Kiel's one word response to Sene'kha's Deal with the Devil: "No."
• Diva'ratrika also got one in the Longest Wait Prequel when after learning that three of her daughters had betrayed her she released a blast of mana that knocks an entire building on the cavern ceiling to the ground. It didn't do much good in the long run, but the sheer Holy Shit Quotient of that scene is something else.
• Syphile's Calling the Old Man Out while held at sword point by Quain'tana. It's pretty much the only time Syphile ever stood up against someone more powerful than her.
• Vaelia gets one in one of her first appearances. Jer'kol is trying to convince Ariel that he's her father to lure her to him, but Vaelia, sensing that something is wrong, kicks him in the face and then blocks his sword with the chains on her hands. He manages to hit her, but this clearly established Vaelia as a Badass Normal in a universe where humans are low on the power totem pole.
• Kyo'nne had largely been The Chick, until she shows that she beat up a human with a frying pan after they snuck up on her. It happened offscreen, but it still shows significant Character Development for her.
• Chiri's epic beatdown of the Halme King who had been murdering elves to bathe in their blood. Even people who generally dislike Chiri's Knight Templar attitude were cheering when she decided to Kill It with Fire.
• Ariel finishing Jer'Kol off was so awesome that it required a full page for one panel.
• Saundar coming to the rescue here and defeating a former mercenary here
• The Balvhakara clan gained several fans when their troops turned up to join the Sharen forces against Balsii's coup piloting a giant crab golem.
• Kiel turning down a compromise when trying to hijack the clan.

I'd be insane to refuse! But then again, ain't I a Val of Vloz'ress?! We breed insanity.
