* SoleSurvivor: She is the last survivor of the 34 people who have been using a nuclear reactor to survive the I've age, and quite possibly the only surviving human out of everyone who didn't get on one of Wilford's train. [[spoiler:Then she has to make a HeroicSacrifice late in season 3.]]

* PanickyExpectantFather: [[spoiler:Poor Zarah has to send him to personally investigate an arson attempt to kick him out of the medical car and get a break from his rumblings]]. It's partly justified, though, as [[spoiler:the baby had been experimented on genetically during the gestation to give her cold immunity, and no one has a precedent for that kind of births]].

* DarkAndTroubledPast: According to his offical character profile he was a career criminal who'd escaped just prior to the Freeze, just in time to board the Tail as Snowpiercer left.
