* {{Meganekko}}: Serena wears glasses (despite the game taking place many centuries in the future) and she has a mild-mannered personality.

* ImAHumanitarian: How he ends up being the LastOfHisKind.

* StuffedIntoTheFridge: Not a traditional example, [[spoiler: given she's very much alive and possessed by a murderous ghost at the time,]] but her sudden death after Theo had come to emotionally rely on her counts as the Blessed Agony of the Soul.

* MalevolentMaskedMen: Subverted. Back when he used to be a gentleman thief, Trilby wore a

* BreakTheHaughty: What Chzo intended when it turned Cabadath into the Tall Man, as punishment for attempting to bind Chzo to his will. Whether it succeeded or not is debatable[[spoiler:, as while he became a DragonWithAnAgenda and actively opposed Chzo's goals, he claims that it was out of loyalty and a desire to continue serving it. It's unclear whether he's telling the truth, or if he's just lying to try to save himself and is really just afraid of a FateWorseThanDeath]].

* FourthDateMarriage: after knowing Janine for all of four days - most of which he spent out doing fetch-quests while she hid in her room - he finds himself sleeping with her for comfort and ends up emotionally relying on her so much that [[spoiler: losing her puts him through the Blessed Agony of the Soul.]]

Originally a druid in the year 55 BCE, Cabadath was dragged into the World of Magick by Chzo after a failed attempt to summon and bind it in order to defeat an invading Roman army. Turned into an immortal {{Lich}} by Chzo, and deformed after years of horrific torture, Cabadath eventually broke down and swore himself into Chzo's service, and now carries out his master's will in the World of Technology. [[spoiler: That is, until Chzo attempts to replace him...]]

* PowerFloats: Levitates off the ground at all times. This could be an indicator that he is a more fitting servant for Chzo, a being of magic, than Cabadath, who is always seen walking. [[spoiler: Given Theo's broken body after the blast, it's also possible that his feet just don't work anymore.]]

* MeaningfulName: Possibly unintentional, but "John [=DeFoe=]" is very similar to "John Doe", the name used as a placeholder for unidentified individuals or corpses. Given his status as both a wraith and TheNameless, this is rather appropriate.

* TheNameless: Was never given a name in life, due to being disowned and locked in a basement on the day he was born. As such, the different characters come up with various means of identifying him, the most frequently used being Trilby's "John [=DeFoe=]".

* WasOneAMan

* GoodBoss: He's very friendly and personable, and he prefers a more informal attitude from his crew.

* LookBehindYou: Angela refuses to heed John's warning [[spoiler:causing her to be killed by an undead Barry]].

* KnownOnlyByTheirNickName: A.J. never gave his full name to anyone [[spoiler:and ends up dead before talking to Trilby/the player]].
