[[folder:Brigit]]
!!Brigit Stark
Cinder’s abusive mother. A {{gold digger}} who manipulated her husband into suicide to get his money.
----
!!!Tropes:
* AssholeVictim: If you’re glad that she got barbecued by Cinder, you definitely aren’t alone.
* BatmanGambit: Using Cinder's knowledge of her heartless nature, she makes Cinder make herself look like she's hurting her while Brigit acts sorrowful in front of her other children. From Sterling and Clem's perspective, Cinder was trying to invalidate their mother's feelings of grief. This helped to make Cinder's life miserable since her other children ended up hating her. Sterling even [[BigBrotherBully joins in on the torment]].
* BitchInSheepsClothing: She presents herself as a caring wife and mother, but she wants her family dead and horrifically abuses Cinder.
* ConsummateLiar: Cinder says she has acting skills that would put movie stars to shame.
* DirtyCoward: While she acts all tough and scary, she takes out her aggressions on a child. When she’s not in a position of power, she quickly cowers in fear. Evidenced by her death; Cinder even calls her a coward in her narration.
* DomesticAbuse: She [[AbusiveParents abuses Cinder]] and drives her husband to suicide.
* EvilMatriarch: Cinder’s abusive mother-figure is a greedy, sociopathic monster with no concern for anyone but herself.
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: Brigit is described as gorgeous many times. She’s also a vicious, abusive, greedy, manipulative {{gold digger}}. Cinder even describes her as a demon wrapped in an angel’s skin.
* FairytaleMotifs: She is Cinder’s greedy, controlling, abusive mother-figure who encourages her children to hate Cinder.
* FauxAffablyEvil: The night she catches Cinder spying on her, she tucks her in at night while faking a motherly tone. However, her words imply that she'll make Cinder life miserable if she says anything.
* ForTheEvulz: Her logic might see abusing Cinder as her punishment for trying to expose her cruel nature, but there really isn't much reason for it other than to be cruel.
* GoldDigger: She only married Cinder’s father for his money.
* HateSink: Completely devoid of any redeeming qualities and only exists to be hated.
* [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Hoist by Her Own Petard]]: Her BatmanGambit worked to make Cinder's siblings hate her while getting away with driving her husband to suicide. However, exposing her cruel nature to Cinder only made the girl resent her. Eventually, [[TheDogBitesBack Cinder comes up with a plan to kill her]] and it's hard to say that Brigit didn't bring it upon herself for the way she treated her daughter.
* {{Hypocrite}}: She [[YoureInsane calls Cinder a "psycho brat"]] for killing Clementine. This coming from the woman who drove her husband to suicide for money, poisoned her son for the same reason, and frequently beat her daughter just because she tried to expose her true nature. Cinder immediately calls her out on this.
* IcyBlueEyes: Cinder mentions her cold blue eyes. Fitting [[TheSociopath her personality]] quite well.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Her first and only concern is herself. She only cares about getting money and is willing to kill her own children and her husband just to get the inheritance.
* KickTheDog: Pretty much everything that she does to Cinder. There’s also the fact that she tells her husband that she never loved him in order to get him to kill himself while coldly dismissing his death when she sees him hanging.
* LackOfEmpathy: Brigit is incapable of seeing people as anything other than means to her own ends. She only says "Good riddance" when she makes her husband kill himself and doesn't care about traumatizing her children by showing them his hanging dead body. She also kills her son before he turns eighteen.
* [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative Bitch]]: She tricks her other children into hating Cinder to justify her abuse and can even manipulate public perception when her husband kills himself. She also manipulated Cinder into making herself look bad, so she can make her other children hate her for "hurting mommy."
* MeaningfulName: Brigit’s name comes from the Irish goddess Brigid, who was the goddess of fire. And as the writer implies, fire leaves behind cinders after it is gone.
* MsFanservice: Cinder mentions that she has a body that most women would kill for. It doesn’t get a lot of focus in the story, but Cinder says she got her looks from her.
* MyGodYouAreSerious: She thinks that Cinder handcuffing her to the banister is some kind of joke. She finds it to be hilarious and promises not to beat her if she lets her out immediately. Cinder quickly assures her that it is not a joke. And Brigit's amusement ends just as quickly.
* OhCrap: When she realizes that Cinder is definitely going to leave her for dead.
* OffingTheOffspring: Cinder mentioned that Sterling was poisoned [[KilledOffscreen sometime between Chapters 1 and 2]] of ''My Name Is Cinder''. She speculates that it was Brigit's doing.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: In this continuity, if it were not for her, Cinder wouldn’t be evil, and all of the terrible events of Volume 3 would never have happened. Also, Cinder wouldn’t have assembled Team CRME. Her abuse also still has direct lasting effects on Cinder [[spoiler: as her attack on Melanie Black shows]]. And Mercury possibly wouldn't even be alive if not for Cinder looking for Marcus. He would've bled out and died after killing his father had Cinder and Emerald not gotten there when they did.
** And to take things a step further, Cinder is the one who hired Roman for the Dust robbery that Ruby intervened in. Basically, Ozpin wouldn't have noticed Ruby's fighting skills, she wouldn't have been accepted into Beacon early, and the ''entire show'' wouldn't have happened the way it did if not for Brigit.
* SmugSnake: She thinks she got away with everything, and she genuinely did for years. However, her superiority over Cinder is shown to be misplaced when her daughter leaves her for dead. She is reduced to begging for Cinder to release her since her manipulation doesn't work on Cinder.
* TheSociopath: A near textbook example. She's selfish, manipulative, devoid of conscience, superficially charming, and only sees people as means to her own ends. Now we know where Cinder gets a lot of it from.
* StarterVillain: She is killed in the second chapter of ''My Name Is Cinder'', but she is the first hurdle Cinder must overcome to become the villain she is in the series proper.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: While it’s likely that Salem would have found another person to take Cinder’s place, Brigit turned Cinder into the monster she was, making it easier for Salem to take advantage of her and destroy Vale.
* VillainsWantMercy: She tries to get Cinder to release her and [[VillainousBreakdown freaks out]] when she doesn’t. She keeps hopelessly begging Cinder for an escape.
* WouldHurtAChild: She nearly chokes out six-year-old Cinder when the latter catches her complaining about having another child and admitting that she tried to get rid of her and Sterling before they were born.
* YoureInsane: She calls Cinder a "psycho brat" for killing her sister. As pointed out in {{Hypocrite}} above, she doesn't have much room to talk.

!Bandits
[[folder:Grayson]]
!!Scarlet Grayson
The leader of a Bandit tribe that took Cinder in.
----
!!!Tropes:
* AffablyEvil: For a murderous bandit, she is quite nice to her tribe and Cinder.
* BadassGay: She is the leader of a bandit tribe and trains Cinder to fight. She also is said to have an affinity for pretty girls.
* BanditClan: She is the leader of one.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Her hair and eyes are red.
* {{Ephebophile}}: She still wanted Cinder despite the fact that Cinder was fifteen at the time.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: She truly wants Cinder to love her and cares about the members of her tribe.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: She doesn’t believe in harming children in the raids and demands loyalty to the tribe.
* {{Hypocrite}}: She has a man killed for warning a tribe about the raid so that they would be ready. She sees no problem picking off an easy target, but she will be furious about someone doing the right thing and going against the tribe.
* IncompatibleOrientation: She is a lesbian who wants to be with the asexual Cinder. It has a layer of {{irony}} considering the fact that Cinder wasn't using her body to manipulate people yet like she does with Emerald. Otherwise, she might have had a chance since Cinder could use the attachment to keep herself safe.
* MeaningfulName: Scarlet has red [[CurtainsMatchTheWindow hair and eyes]].
* TheMentor: Before Salem came along, she was the one who trained Cinder to fight.
* SlashedThroat: How she is ultimately killed by Cinder.
* TwoFirstNames: "Grayson" can be a male given name. And it's likely why Cinder expected her to be a man.
* WithUsOrAgainstUs: She believes in loyalty to the tribe at all costs. If you’re not with the tribe, you don’t deserve mercy.
* WouldntHurtAChild: She makes a point for her and her men to not harm children during their raids. Some may get hurt by Grimm beasts, but that can’t be helped.

[[folder:Hunter]]
!!Hunter
One of the bandits in Grayson's clan.
----
* GenderMisdirection: His description of Grayson conveniently leaves out any pronouns to indicate that she is female.
* KilledOffscreen: If he wasn't killed in the Ursa attack, he had to have been killed somewhere along the line.
* MrExposition: His role is mostly to tell Cinder about Grayson.
* OnlyOneName: To be fair, he's not important enough to have another since he doesn't really serve any purpose in the plot.

!!The Three Kidnappers
[[CaptainObvious The bandits that attacked and abducted Cinder.]]
----
* AssholeVictim: If they died in the Ursa attack, then the fact that they abducted a fifteen-year-old girl to pass her along as an offering doesn't gain them much sympathy.
* NoNameGiven
* WouldHurtAChild: They were not going to kill her since [[WouldntHurtAChild Grayson]] wouldn't allow it, but they still attacked her and planned to trade her off to Grayson as an offering and essentially a SexSlave.[[note]]That isn't Scarlet's intention, but that probably is what they thought was going to happen.[[/note]]

!!Tyrian Callows
A scorpion Faunus and member of Salem’s inner circle.
----
!!!Tropes:
* AxCrazy: Tyrian is called a lunatic and a madman. His idea of a funny joke was to attempt to sting Cinder. Him laughing about Cinder stabbing her sister in the throat and burning her mother alive also doesn’t suggest a lot of mental soundness.
* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor: His idea of a prank involves attempting to lethally poison a fifteen-year-old girl.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He is very polite to Cinder... just before attempting to sting her with his tail.
* TheGhost: In ''CRME''. He is mentioned a few times, but he never actually makes an appearance.
* PsychopathicManchild: He tries to play a prank on Cinder that could’ve lethally poisoned her had she not been quick enough. And he cowers in fear when Salem reprimands him much like a child being scolded by a parent.
* {{Troll}}: He politely introduces himself to Cinder and holds out his hand for a handshake… only to attempt to sting her hand with his tail.

* KillEmAll: With the exception of [[SavedByCanon Cinder]], they are all killed off.
* UnwittingPawn: Brigit manipulates Sterling and Clementine into hating Cinder after their father kills himself.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Other than Brigit, the rest of Cinder's family doesn't get as much characterization before being killed. Only Clementine makes it past the first chapter.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Brigit]]
!!Brigit Stark
Cinder’s abusive mother. A {{gold digger}} who manipulated her husband into suicide to get his money.
----
!!!Tropes:
* AssholeVictim: If you’re glad that she got barbecued by Cinder, you definitely aren’t alone.
* BatmanGambit: Using Cinder's knowledge of her heartless nature, she makes Cinder make herself look like she's hurting her while Brigit acts sorrowful in front of her other children. From Sterling and Clem's perspective, Cinder was trying to invalidate their mother's feelings of grief. This helped to make Cinder's life miserable since her other children ended up hating her. Sterling even [[BigBrotherBully joins in on the torment]].
* BitchInSheepsClothing: She presents herself as a caring wife and mother, but she wants her family dead and horrifically abuses Cinder.
* ConsummateLiar: Cinder says she has acting skills that would put movie stars to shame.
* DirtyCoward: While she acts all tough and scary, she takes out her aggressions on a child. When she’s not in a position of power, she quickly cowers in fear. Evidenced by her death; Cinder even calls her a coward in her narration.
* DomesticAbuse: She [[AbusiveParents abuses Cinder]] and drives her husband to suicide.
* EvilMatriarch: Cinder’s abusive mother-figure is a greedy, sociopathic monster with no concern for anyone but herself.
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: Brigit is described as gorgeous many times. She’s also a vicious, abusive, greedy, manipulative {{gold digger}}. Cinder even describes her as a demon wrapped in an angel’s skin.
* FairytaleMotifs: She is Cinder’s greedy, controlling, abusive mother-figure who encourages her children to hate Cinder.
* FauxAffablyEvil: The night she catches Cinder spying on her, she tucks her in at night while faking a motherly tone. However, her words imply that she'll make Cinder life miserable if she says anything.
* ForTheEvulz: Her logic might see abusing Cinder as her punishment for trying to expose her cruel nature, but there really isn't much reason for it other than to be cruel.
* GoldDigger: She only married Cinder’s father for his money.
* HateSink: Completely devoid of any redeeming qualities and only exists to be hated.
* [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Hoist by Her Own Petard]]: Her BatmanGambit worked to make Cinder's siblings hate her while getting away with driving her husband to suicide. However, exposing her cruel nature to Cinder only made the girl resent her. Eventually, [[TheDogBitesBack Cinder comes up with a plan to kill her]] and it's hard to say that Brigit didn't bring it upon herself for the way she treated her daughter.
* {{Hypocrite}}: She [[YoureInsane calls Cinder a "psycho brat"]] for killing Clementine. This coming from the woman who drove her husband to suicide for money, poisoned her son for the same reason, and frequently beat her daughter just because she tried to expose her true nature. Cinder immediately calls her out on this.
* IcyBlueEyes: Cinder mentions her cold blue eyes. Fitting [[TheSociopath her personality]] quite well.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Her first and only concern is herself. She only cares about getting money and is willing to kill her own children and her husband just to get the inheritance.
* KickTheDog: Pretty much everything that she does to Cinder. There’s also the fact that she tells her husband that she never loved him in order to get him to kill himself while coldly dismissing his death when she sees him hanging.
* LackOfEmpathy: Brigit is incapable of seeing people as anything other than means to her own ends. She only says "Good riddance" when she makes her husband kill himself and doesn't care about traumatizing her children by showing them his hanging dead body. She also kills her son before he turns eighteen.
* [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative Bitch]]: She tricks her other children into hating Cinder to justify her abuse and can even manipulate public perception when her husband kills himself. She also manipulated Cinder into making herself look bad, so she can make her other children hate her for "hurting mommy."
* MeaningfulName: Brigit’s name comes from the Irish goddess Brigid, who was the goddess of fire. And as the writer implies, fire leaves behind cinders after it is gone.
* MsFanservice: Cinder mentions that she has a body that most women would kill for. It doesn’t get a lot of focus in the story, but Cinder says she got her looks from her.
* MyGodYouAreSerious: She thinks that Cinder handcuffing her to the banister is some kind of joke. She finds it to be hilarious and promises not to beat her if she lets her out immediately. Cinder quickly assures her that it is not a joke. And Brigit's amusement ends just as quickly.
* OhCrap: When she realizes that Cinder is definitely going to leave her for dead.
* OffingTheOffspring: Cinder mentioned that Sterling was poisoned [[KilledOffscreen sometime between Chapters 1 and 2]] of ''My Name Is Cinder''. She speculates that it was Brigit's doing.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: In this continuity, if it were not for her, Cinder wouldn’t be evil, and all of the terrible events of Volume 3 would never have happened. Also, Cinder wouldn’t have assembled Team CRME. Her abuse also still has direct lasting effects on Cinder [[spoiler: as her attack on Melanie Black shows]]. And Mercury possibly wouldn't even be alive if not for Cinder looking for Marcus. He would've bled out and died after killing his father had Cinder and Emerald not gotten there when they did.
** And to take things a step further, Cinder is the one who hired Roman for the Dust robbery that Ruby intervened in. Basically, Ozpin wouldn't have noticed Ruby's fighting skills, she wouldn't have been accepted into Beacon early, and the ''entire show'' wouldn't have happened the way it did if not for Brigit.
* SmugSnake: She thinks she got away with everything, and she genuinely did for years. However, her superiority over Cinder is shown to be misplaced when her daughter leaves her for dead. She is reduced to begging for Cinder to release her since her manipulation doesn't work on Cinder.
* TheSociopath: A near textbook example. She's selfish, manipulative, devoid of conscience, superficially charming, and only sees people as means to her own ends. Now we know where Cinder gets a lot of it from.
* StarterVillain: She is killed in the second chapter of ''My Name Is Cinder'', but she is the first hurdle Cinder must overcome to become the villain she is in the series proper.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: While it’s likely that Salem would have found another person to take Cinder’s place, Brigit turned Cinder into the monster she was, making it easier for Salem to take advantage of her and destroy Vale.
* VillainsWantMercy: She tries to get Cinder to release her and [[VillainousBreakdown freaks out]] when she doesn’t. She keeps hopelessly begging Cinder for an escape.
* WouldHurtAChild: She nearly chokes out six-year-old Cinder when the latter catches her complaining about having another child and admitting that she tried to get rid of her and Sterling before they were born.
* YoureInsane: She calls Cinder a "psycho brat" for killing her sister. As pointed out in {{Hypocrite}} above, she doesn't have much room to talk.

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: He’s mostly referred to as their father or Brigit’s husband.
* OnlyOneName: His first name is not mentioned anywhere in the series so far.
* PosthumousCharacter: Since the first chapter is Cinder recounting her life up to the present day in that chapter, it means he’s already long dead considering the present-tense format primarily used in the solo stories.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Even more so than his children. He doesn’t even get lines or [[OnlyOneName a first name]].
