* CaptainErsatz: He is very much based on Hugo Drax from the novel ''Literature/{{Moonraker}}'', from building a huge space project to supposedly solve the world's problems, being a media darling, building his fortune on mining and having an extravagant lifestyle, [[spoiler: to actually being a military officer of a totalitarian government (Nazi Germany for Drax in the novel, North Korea for Graves in the film) who took the opportunity of being declared dead to create a new identity for himself]].

* NouveauRiche: By the time Bond catches up to him as Graves, he's just become a multi-billionaire from a diamond mine he set up in Iceland. [[spoiler: In reality, his massive fortune was really built by using the "mine" as a front for laundering blood diamonds from Sierra Leone]].

-->[[spoiler: '''Graves:''' ''(in Korean)'' Father... [[DisappointedInYou you disappoint me]].]]

* StarterVillain: The North Korean Colonel Moon initially appears during the pre-title sequence and apparently dies after going over a cliff into a waterfall, leaving the British Gustav Graves to take the stage as the film's main antagonist. [[spoiler: It's later averted when it turns out they're the same person, having undergone a DNA transplant after faking his death at the beginning of the film.]]

-->'''Bond''': A [[IcePalace palace of ice]]. You must feel right at home.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler: How Jinx kills her, stabbing her in the the midsection through a ''The Art of War'' book and kicking the knife into her as the final blow. Doubly funny that their clash was a sword fight and when you remember that Frost did come in at second place in the Olympics.]]

* TheMole: [[spoiler: Is revealed to have been Colonel Moon[=/=]Gustav Grave's mole inside MI-6, which is how Moon was able to identify Bond and break his cover in the prologue.]]

* StatuesqueStunner: A beautiful woman who clocks 5'9.

--> '''Gustave Graves:''' You would kill your own son?
--> '''General Moon:''' The son I knew died long ago.

[[folder: Raoul]]

* SmallRoleBigImpact: While he's a very minor character in the story, his clinic is able to provide [[spoiler: Colonel Moon with his new identity as Gustav Graves, allowing him to slip under the radar for well over a year while he accumulates the power and wealth needed to build the Icarus satellite.]]

* NiceGuy: He's a friendly guy who helps out Bond in tracking down Zao, providing him with a gun, a car and Zao's location.

* DeadArtistsAreBetter: He likes to think of his work with the gene therapy as art and himself as the artist. Jinx tells him that most artists are only truly celebrated after they're dead, then proceeds to kill him.

* DeadArtistsAreBetter: He likes to think of his work with the gene therapy as art and himself as the artist. Jinx agrees, but then quips that most artists are only celebrated after they're dead before killing him.

* DeadArtistsAreBetter: He likes to think of his work with the gene therapy as art and himself as the artist. Jinx agrees, but then adds that most artists are only celebrated after they're dead. She promptly kills him.

* MagicPlasticSurgery: Upon faking his death, he submits himself to gene surgery to alter his entire ethnicity from North Korean to British.

* MagicPlasticSurgery: Not himself, but his private clinic provides those that can afford it with a DNA transplant that effectively turns the patient into a completely different person.
