* {{Irony}}: Multiple layers of it. He was drinking buddies with the same guy whose habit ended up killing him - Carl Kesper. And it seems going by the diary entries, they knew each other rather well. Both had a bit too much to drink one night - the same kind of situation that would end up killing Arthur.

He was adopted into a family that turns out to be big and screwed up, possibly saw his mother (the one figure of kindness in his life) dragged out in a tarp covered in blood, indoctrinated into self hatred and dealt with his issues by drinking, sleeping around, and concocting a secondary persona. If his father isn't neglectful he's cruel, and every day Jackson deals with paranoia about his dad figuring out he's bisexual, and possibly ''killing him''. Small wonder he's a neurotic, armored closeted mess.

[[folder: Carter Bristolm]]
Starting out as merely a prickly member of the school football team, Carter turned out to be much more unpleasant. Engaging in blackmailing Jackson White over his sexuality, joining the Umbral Horde first as a Junior Horde member, eagerly answering to Kellon Nyczus, Carter took any opportunity to advance himself...which leads into his reappearance in Shadows of Sandfield II, in which he has joined Scythirax as an understudy.
* BastardUnderstudy: Multiple times, even! He'd studied under Xander, willingly subordinated himself to Kellon, and now is working for Scythirax the Manifold. Say what you will about Carter, he's eager to learn.
* BreadMilkEggsSquick: Casually states in the middle of reminiscing about his school days about how he'd love to gut Mina like a fish.
* PowerArmor: His is less advanced than most, and does not include a helmet - signifying his lower status and letting his face be seen to confirm his identity.
* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: Played With: Carter's a jock rather than a nerd, despite his glasses. He is however possessed of a rather low cunning that makes him dangerous - and he's keen on becoming more dangerous still.
* SmugSnake: Carter ''loves'' to gloat, and being in a powerful position is one of his favorite things. He started pretty easily pushed down when he got smug, but has been taking a turn toward higher functioning lately.

*YankTheDogsChain: It looks like Jayden is going to get enjoy an ordinary life; and then the Gibbs Militia moves into Sandfield.
*AwesomeButImpractical: Heather's dragon totem is this, at least at first. While summoning a dragon is undeniably cool, the dragon is an externally existing being. This means that its injuries remain between summonings. As one would expect this makes using it increasingly risky. There is also no flow of information between Heather and the dragon, meaning the transformation is quite disorientating for both parties.
* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: Pablo's unique magic type "the Wild Armour" allows him to conjure a variety of weapons themed after animals.
* BlueCollarWarlock: Most of the cast is this, but Veda especially stands out, being a magical genius from a poor working class family.
