* ShapeshifterModeLock: He's seemingly stuck in warrior mode forever.
* SplitPersonality: Aiden's docile nerd personality was meshed with the warrior's savageness, and he tried to keep it under control. Nara suggests that the savageness is Aiden's own hidden dark side taking shape, now that he has the power to deal with bullies.
* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler: After Cullen kills Nara]], he gets very angry and cuts [[spoiler: Cullen]] with his ax, and then kicks him in the head in retaliation.
* ViolentGlaswegian: The Celtic warrior that possess Aiden. Possibly Aiden himself (as he is Scottish), whether or not he wants to admit it.
to:
* AxCrazy: No pun intended, but he tries his hardest to control this side of himself. He still finds himself smiling while in life or death situations.
* TheBigGuy: The main muscle in the TheTeam of Braddock Academy.
* DeathWail: He lets one out while [[spoiler: cradling a dead Nara.]]
* GrinOfAudacity: Done mainly through the Celt's BloodLust, and it's something he can barely control to his horror.
* HeroicBSOD: Just briefly, after [[spoiler: he cut off Kid Briton's head]]. Making out with Nara gets him out of it.
* InvoluntaryShapeshifter: He was unable to control just when he would turn into the warrior, and it looks like he's permanently in warrior mode.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Cullen Bloodstone, whom he's very close too.

A very wealthy psychopath, who enjoyed building {{Deadly Game}}s (called "Murderworlds") for the Comicbook/XMen. He was something of a joke villain, as he never managed to kill any super hero in his games once he started targeting them. But now, he has somehow gained omnipotent power and has created his deadliest game ever, and trapped 16 young Marvel superheroes in his own personal hellhole.

Ms. Coriander claims that as long as he's in Murderworld, Arcade could give ''[[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Thor]]'' a run for his money.
