Damsel In Distress is the new name of the trope.


* DistressedDamsel: Deconstructed. Trip isn't [[TheCracker without skills]] of [[WrenchWench her own]], but she's easy prey to the slavers and the mech. Her solution? ShootTheDog.

* KidWithTheLeash: Averted. She may have a slave helmet on Monkey, and can pretty much tell him to do whatever she wants, but she never uses it to do more than keep Monkey from running off without her. Monkey is the one in charge: he's the one who knows how to get through the wasteland, and he makes it clear to her that if she wants to survive she has to do as he tells her.

* CoveredWithScars: Of the decorative and generic kind. Although not explained in-game, Nina Kristenson of Ninja Theory elaborates that the swirling designs on his torso [[{{Every Scar Has A Story}} are war scars he drew on himself after major battles.]] Considering the sheer amount he has, your mileage may vary as to whether that's [[{{Crowning Moment of Awesome}} awesome]] [[{{Ax Crazy}} or]] [[{{Iron Woobie}} not.]]

!!! Voiced by Creator/AndySerkis

* AntiVillain: [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds A Type II masquerading]] [[WellIntentionedExtremist as a Type III.]] He's created a slave empire that's captured thousands, but all he wants is to go back to a time when people's problems revolved around jobs, schools and the like, instead of living in fear of machines, starvation, and slavers.
* BigBad: After his mechs destroy Trip's home, confronting him becomes her driving motivation.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[ImpliedTrope Implied.]] He's old enough to remember how things used to be before the war, and underneath his mask, he's clearly in the winter of his life. It's implied that unlike Monkey and Trip, Pyramid couldn't cope with the loss of his previous life, so he became the BigBad in an effort to get something of it back.
* Egopolis: [[PlayingWIthATrope Played with.]] His monikor and his city are both called Pyramid, but it's clearly not his original name.
* KarmicDeath: Ends up dying at the hands of a woman who belonged to one of the countless communities he's destroyed in the name of his vision.
* LotusEaterMachine: He's feeding his slaves the memories of the world before the RobotWar, creating a form of {{Escapism}} from the CrapsackWorld they inhabit.
