* AuraVision: His spell lets him cheat at ''Magickal Gatherings'' by creating a vision of his foe's deck in the form of a busty anime girl. Pandora gave it to him in the hopes that if he Awakened he would gain the ability to see magical auras like Luke.

* AscendedExtra: Like Jay and Sam, AJ was a random background character who had his appearance reused for a plot-relevant character later.
* CripplingOverspecialization: His magic mark is ''absurdly'' specific. It lets him learn things about his opponent's deck in ''Magickal Gatherings'' while making them look like a busty anime girl to him. It's the type of mark that's granted because he had a deep desire for something, in this case a desire to win card games [[HormoneAddledTeenager and look at busty anime girls]].
* {{Jerkass}}: He's first introduced butting ahead of Rhoda in line at the cafeteria and refusing to go back behind her, and his next appearance has him confidently using his magic to cheat at a tournament.
* MuggingTheMonster: AJ tried cutting Rhoda off in line, [[spoiler:but she's able to intimidate him thanks to her [[TheArchmage absurd magic power]]]].
* PowerTattoo: He has a magic mark in the shape of a ''Magickal Gatherings'' card with twintails.
* UselessUsefulSpell: His magic mark isn't strictly useful to Pandora since it doesn't have any external effect and she can't even she what he sees when he uses it. However, it's the kind of spell that can easily blossom into a proper AuraVision if AJ Awakens (or much less likely, a spell that lets him actually turn people into {{Player Archetype|s}}[=-themed=] anime girls).
