Trip

  • Rule of Seven: Trip throws sevens on dice. This is not an example of Lucky Seven, as seven is not a lucky number to throw when playing dice (because it's only an average throw, and you can never roll doubles).

The Maer's Court

Maer Rand Alveron

  • Too Clever by Half: Invoked, in those exact words, by Kvothe as narrator, besides being true

Stapes

Dagon

Lady Meluan Lackless

Caudicus

  • Meaningful Name: Probably a double subversion. The similar-sounding caduceus (☤) is a symbol often used in America for the medical industry. However, this usage is historically incorrect: the caduceus is rather a symbol of commerce, and is considered inappropriate as a symbol of medicine because commerce often involves theft, deception, and death.

Breadon

Lord Praevek

  • Gossipy Hens: Most of the Maer's Court is this, but Lord Praevek is the most gossipy of all of them.

Aleph

  • Meaningful Name: In universe, Aleph is either a god or the first person to discover naming, depending on whose story you believe. In real life, aleph is the the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet, but in mathematics it is used as the symbol for transfinite numbers (essentially different kinds of infinity).


Newarre (scenes from the framing device)

Chronicler

Bast

Cob

Aaron

  • Smarter Than You Look: He looks big and dumb (as Bast notes) but proves himself more capable than anyone in town.
