** "Phantom and Crimson Solitaire" reveals that the truth was quite different: [[spoiler:his "friends" were his mentors in the Crimson Troupe, and he murdered them after he discovered that they were "hopeless villains"]].

* EarlyBirdCameo: Gameplay-wise on Global servers, he becomes briefly playable during the Tribulation Mode version of TW-S-1 in the Twilight of Wolumonde event, due to said event being pushed up before his debut banner. His profile image is also displayed in the Network Archives, albeit as a generic silhouette much like other unrecruited operators. He shares this distinction with [[spoiler:W]].
* {{Foreshadowing}}: One of Phantom's max trust voice lines mention how someone is trying to control him and tells the Doctor that he needed to seek the truth before he can continue to stay in Rhodes Island as the Doctor's assassin. This comes to a head in "Phantom and Crimson Solitaire", where [[spoiler:the Host of the Crimson Troupe finally took control of Phantom again and brought him back to the troupe as an actor and assassin. Phantom must be fought as the FinalBoss of the Normal Ending to stop the Host's brainwashing on him]].

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: The story of "Phantom and Crimson Solitaire" involves Phantom going missing and [[spoiler:being brainwashed by the host of the Crimson Troupe to become their assassin again. Due to how recruitment works in Intergrated Strategies, this doesn't stop you from recruiting Phantom if you get a voucher to recruit a Specialist operator or borrow a support Phantom from a friend and use him to fight against his own self on the fifth floor]].

* ImageSong: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBCk2PRiZ1w "Curtain Call"]]

* ProfessionalKiller: He was an independent assassin operating in/around Victoria after [[spoiler:killing his mentors in the Crimson Troupe and breaking away from them]].

* ImageSong: "[[https://youtu.be/pWU3RKBSGx8?list=PLbuSQ8SJFnFEHL4_T9S0whD-TevceJIsl Awaken]]".

* GuileHero: She initially arrives in Siesta to make a competing bid against Bison's Mountaincomm Trade for redevelopment of New Siesta. However, in truth, this was all a ploy to [[spoiler:gain enough leverage to buy into becoming Bison's partner in running Mountaincomm Trade while avoiding her grandfather's notice]].

* RebelliousPrincess: Despite being a potential heiress to the Schwire Group, Swire has no intention of followingin her grandfather's footsteps and constantly defies him in order to do what she feels is best for Lungmen, culminating in her [[spoiler:eventually leaving the Schwire Group entirely so she can focus on being the new LGD superintendent as well as run Mountaincomm Trade with Bison]].

* CombatMedic: Her first skill heals a nearby ally that's below 70% of their maximum health for up to 80% of her own ATK[[labelnote:note]]Despite how the description of the skill is worded it functions like Nearl or Saria's S1 and is not actually an attack meaning it does not depend on an enemy being in range[[/labelnote]]—notably, unlike Jaye this healing is entirely based on her own stats and not her damage dealt meaning it is unaffected by enemy DEF with the only caveat being that each heal costs 1 Coin meaning her healing application is less consistent than Jaye's.

* ExtremeDoormat: One of her great weaknesses his her shyness and reluctance to stand up for herself. This allowed her to be exploited by the research institute she had previously worked for, who had secretly plagiarized and patented all of her research for themselves.

* OddFriendship: With Jessica, the resident rich cat. Their backgrounds and spending habits could not be any more different from each other, but despite this, they've somehow come together and became fast friends.

[[caption-width-right:350:What she brought back aren't only the goods she wanted but also the business opportunities that can shake up the market.]]

->''Swire, Superintendent of L.G.D., just finished her vacation in Siesta.''

An alternate version of [[Characters/ArknightsGuardsRToZ Swire]] following her promotion to superintendent of the L.G.D. and a vacation/business trip in Siesta.

* ArmorIsUseless: Specifically, her fireman's coat does not protect her from Molotov cocktails. Her Fireproof Suit talent increases her RES, while enemy cocktail throwers deal Physical damage, which RES does nothing against.

* PintsizedPowerhouse: Shaw is bar none the tiniest operator in ''Arknights'', only beaten by the Durins Myrtle and Durin herself. She's also fully capable of shoving enemies several times her size into BottomlessPits to their {{Disney Villain Death}}s. ''[[OneHitPolyKill In bulk]]''.

->'''Talents:''' Bug Catcher[[note]]When dragging an "Infected Creature"(like Infused Originium Slug), the strength of the shift increases by 1 degree, and silences the target for 8 seconds at elite 2 potential 4[[/note]]

* AutoRevive: Her second talent has her pay 5 DP in order to withstand a fatal blow and revive her with 70% of her HP (80% with potentials). It has no cooldown or hard limit, but said DP cost doubles every time the talent triggers, meaning that if not retreated early she'll inevitably bleed your DP dry before finally kicking the bucket.

Said DP cost doubles every time the talent triggers, meaning that if not retreated early she'll inevitably bleed your DP dry before finally kicking the bucket.

* AutoRevive: Her second talent has her pay 5 DP in order to withstand a fatal blow and revive her with 70% of her HP (80% with potentials). Said DP cost doubles every time the talent triggers, meaning the cost can get ridiculous if she's under heavy pressure.

* IOweYouMyLife: She managed to escape [[spoiler:the massacre of her family thanks to Bernando Bellone sheltering her out of his friendship with her grandfather Salvadore, as well as a pact she made with the Feraerus that controls the Bellone.]]

* TheCallKnowsWhereYouLive: "Il Siracusano" starts with [[spoiler:Zaaro]] coming for her in Lungmen to order her to fulfill her oath that she made with him: [[spoiler:in exchange for escaping Columbia with her life intact, she has to perform a request for him later. Said request turns out to be assisting his "Fang", his chosen human champion in Siracusa's secret Feraerus civil war.]]

->'''Skills:''' Monetary Donation, Meeting Gift, Prodigal

->''Specialist Operator Spuria is ready to assist you.''

A member of the Laterano Holy Church's Sixth Tribunal, assigned on an exchange mission with Rhodes Island following the event of "Hortus de Escapismo".

* BadassBureaucrat: She's from the Laterano Sixth Tribunal, which is one of the highest authorities in the Lateran government. It does not stop her from doing fieldwork herself as a playable operator [[spoiler:and as part of the rescue team in "Hortus de Escapismo".]]

* DroneDeployer: The drone in her Elite 2 art is used in the animation of her second skill.

* SweetTooth: A standard Sankta trait, shown in her RIIC skill '''Fruit Tarts Takeout''' which reduces her morale consumption when she is assigned to a Power Plant.
