* WorldOfJerkass: While they may be our protagonists, they are also a bundle of selfish, violent, desperate, deeply flawed individuals which causes a lot of personality clashes and incredible callousness towards one another at times.

Added DiffLines:

* BulletproofVest: Being half-Scarran makes him resilient against most weapons fire to begin with, but he also wears body armor under his cooling suit for extra protection. During one firefight, Crichton takes advantage of this to use him as a BulletproofHumanShield.

Added DiffLines:

* LimitedWardrobe: Aside from one-off, episode-specific outfits she only had ''two'' regular outfits for the entire series while everyone else had multiple options to switch between. She wore her original outfit with the fur-trimmed shoulders until "A Clockwork Nebari" when she switched to a leather outfit she wore for the rest of the series.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: Pretty much everyone other than Crichton has some kind of sordid history prior to the events of the series.

* FireForgedFriends: Initially three escaped prisoners, an [[FishOutOfWater astronaut from a distant galaxy]] and unwilling military deserter, each with their own goals and motivations, through shared struggle and a heap of trauma, they become dependable allies to one another. Well, except maybe [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Rygel]]. Though [[HiddenDepths even he has his moments]].

* TokenHuman: Justified because no human has ever reached the part of the galaxy where the series takes place before Crichton, and his doing so was an accident. Thanks to a HumanAlien race being the most populous in the region pretty much nobody notices.

* InterspeciesRomance: His long-deceased wife Lo'Laan was Sebacean. In the series proper he has a tumultuous relationship with Chiana, a Nebari. SpacePirate Staanz tries to put the moves on him when she meets him, but fails, in part because she's rather annoying and in part because, well, she [[BizarreSexualDimorphism looks a lot]] like a ''male'' HumanAlien.

* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Her hair is a good indicator of her character arc. If things are going well for her she'll [[LettingHerHairDown leave her hair loose]], but during times of trauma she'll revert to the Peacekeepers' traditional slicked-back ponytail or braid.

Added DiffLines:

* ImmuneToMindControl: His higher metabolism means that Nebari Mental Cleansing drugs don't stay in his system for very long. He [[PretendToBeBrainwashed acts as if he's still under]] to avoid them readministering the drugs, and so he has an excuse to keep eating during the crisis.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Especially note, ''she doesn't have weapons''. External ones anyway; her DRDs can be a formidable fighting force when doing things like fending off Peacekeeper Commandos and [[spoiler: protecting her baby]]. And like Pilot, she consented to [[spoiler:building and using a WeaponOfMassDestruction]] during "The Peacekeeper Wars".

* PhonyVeteran: While D'Argo did serve in the military he has the rank of General tattooed on his [[WeirdBeard face tentacles]], despite not earning the rank. He tells Crichton he only had them applied to deceive an enemy foce that had captured him and his superior, as he was injured and likely wouldn't have survived interrogation if D'Argo hadn't taken his place.

* PhonyVeteran: While D'Argo did serve in the Luxan military, the tattoos on his [[WeirdBeard face tentacles]] are the markings of a General, a rank he didn't actually earn. The reasons why are sympathetic though, as he only put them on to spare his wounded superior officer from torture when they were captured as he likley wouldn't have survived the ordeal if D'Argo hadn't taken his place.
