Speaking of plot armour: I think you have sort of omitted the fact that Shepard dies quite unepically in ME2, though, the truth is that he gets over it all too well for my liking, especially over the fact that he has to work with Cerberus (Sole Survivor, grrr!). I LOVED how Vasir called him out on it in LotSB. Anyway, the Fort Drakon episode in DAO and Robbing the Bhaalchild of his/her soul in the Asylum in BGII are definitely great examples of plot twists where the badass heroes encounter someone who is an even greater badass
