* EmptyShell: She describes herself like this. [[spoiler: This is actually for two separate reasons. The first, obvious one is because of how Evelyn has been grooming her to become her new vessel since she was a child. The second reason, that she only reveals to Tara later in the game, is because of the way she allowed herself to be used for loveless sex by closeted girls in the village after talk of her orientation became commonplace.]]

* FamilialBodySnatcher: Part of Evelyn's body surfing M.O. is to have a child and then raise them to be her future host.



* BetrayalByInaction: [[spoiler:She doesn't do anything to try to stop Madison from being sacrificed in her place, and her unwillingness to try to talk Abigail out of it or even thank her shows that she most likely didn't care for Abigail nearly as much as Abigail did for her.]]

* JerkassToOne: Madison's generally a nice person, even if she's going through a rough patch with Tara at the start of the game, but she's unusually distrustful toward Morgan for much of the early game due to not believing Morgan's stories.

* JerkassToOne: Madison's generally a nice person, even if she's going through a rough patch with Tara at the start of the game, but she's unusually distrustful toward Morgan for much of the early game due to not believing Morgan's stories. She's almost never overtly hostile to Morgan, but her thoughts about Morgan in the early game are rarely kind, and she sometimes complains about Morgan to Tara.



* TheOneThingIDontHateAboutYou: Early on in the story, when Madison dislikes and distrusts Morgan, she notes that Morgan makes a decent lunch, which Madison thinks [[DamnedByFaintPraise will be the one nice thing she'll have to say about Morgan all trip]].

* HopelessWithTech: Downplayed. Tara isn't as incompetent as most examples of this trope, but she relies on Madison to shoot and edit videos for ''Taranormal''.



* IronicEcho: In Morgan's first POV scene, Madison says to Tara that the cabin's heaters suddenly shutting down is "a pretty weird coincidence." After they learn that only the heater in Madison's room works, Tara replies, "That's a pretty weird coincidence," imitating Madison's voice as she says that.

* HeyYou: She seems somewhat averse to referring to people by name. It's partly because she's cold and impersonal, and possibly because she's a fairy who thinks names are for humans.

* NoNameGiven: None of the fairies have names, which they claim are "for humans." Maddie mentally assigns the main three she speaks to with the names of Hae, Anan, and Frio.
