* UnskilledButStrong: It's mentioned that Tom might have a natural talent for morphing, but he doesn't ''think'' he's that good at it because he hasn't has as much practice as the Animorphs.

* StockholmSyndrome: He claims to have this. In ''These Are the Damned'', he says while drunk that being a Controller made him feel like his place in the world was to be obedient so the Yeerks wouldn't hurt him. In ''Total Recall'', he slips up and calls himself "property", then blames it on this.

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: In the books, Tom and his Yeerk were both killed while in cobra morph when Rachel bit him in half. In ''The Day the Earth Stood Still'', Rachel slams into him while he's in human form; Essa 412 escapes from his cracked skull, giving Tom ''just'' enough time to morph into a cobra before he bleeds to death, then he injects Essa with a more-than-lethal dose of venom.
* KickTheDog: Tom recalls several times that Essa 412 was excessively cruel to him, from taunting him with the idea that Jake was going to die of a drug overdose, to snapping a child's neck because his singing made Tom and the other hosts feel hopeful.
