* GeekPhysique: The only muscle he cares about is his brain. The rest of him is scrawny. This is a running gag through the latter half of the series; he will lament his lack of physical fitness while he's in the middle of an action sequence.

* PetTheDog: His treatment of the endangered lemur in book six is probably the most prominent example. Also, in book three, his (begrudging) decision to donate Spiro's billion dollar fortune to Amnesty International, with 10% going to the Fowl Estate as a finders fee, and his request for Holly to heal his mother in book one.

* PutOnABus: ''The Fowl Twins'' has him away on a five year mission to Mars. [[RefugeInAudacity On a self-winding rocket he built himself, in the family barn]]. Justified, because if Artemis had been present the first ''Fowl Twins'' book would have ended quickly enough to be a novella.

* CombatPragmatist: He duels the troll in melee for long enough to get its attention back on him...[[spoiler:and to buy time to recover his gun. Once he does, he mag-dumps into its forehead, and upon its survival he brutalizes it into physical helplessness, calmly reloads, rhetorically asks if it has as much protective bone under its jaw.]]

* LegacyOfService: His family's been with the Fowls since the Third Crusade, and every time a new baby is born they're assigned a Butler to care for them. Naturally, the Fowls are rather attached to them.
* MeaningfulName: His first name, [[spoiler:Domovoi]] is the name for the household spirits in Slavic folklore. These creatures are said to be protectors of the household, as long as they are cared for. Pretty good name for a BattleButler.
