Characters get stabbed, beheaded, and you can see characters' heads hanging on poles outside of the castle.
Violence is infrequent but usually pretty bloody and shocking when it happens. Often it's played for laughs but there are moments of disturbing and often graphic violence.
most episodes include violence.
A war between ogres and gnomes occurs, involving several gnomes being crushed by the ogres with their clubs and legs. One ogre is struck in the chest by an exploding mushroom which blows a huge hole in his chest, causing blood and intestines to splatter out of the exit wound.
A ship full of characters is barraged by walruses, who attack them and drown several. The survivors are then massacred by a sword-wielding man who slices it across the back of their necks and decapitates them while mild blood splatters from the wounds.
A small character attacks several giants; one attempts to kill him but strikes a giant in the head with a spiked club, causing him to collapse with the back of his entirely caved-inwards head later shown. Another is hit in the head with such force that his scalp flies off, exposing his brain.
A character is stabbed in the hand with a potato peeler, with blood flowing from the wound. He slaps the back of his head accidentally stabs himself in the back of his head and out the forehead, killing him. The blade is shown sticking out with bloody detail.
Two monkeys are shot with flaming arrows with no blood, one in the chest and one in the head; they fall from a high ledge and burn to death while squealing. The charred corpses are shown and they are quite disturbing.
A large mace is thrown through the air and lands onto a character's head, stabbing them and caving in part of their skull as blood splatters around the wound. Brief but quite graphic and unexpected.
A dagger is thrown at an elf and strikes him in the forehead, killing him instantly. Not bloody but shocking as this ends up starting a brutal massacre.
A recurring character is thrown into a pit presumably to his death, he is heard screaming in horror as he falls.
Two major antagonists who are puppets get thrown into a fireplace and scream in agony as they burn to death. Comical yet slightly unsettling.
