* FiveManBand: One of many superhero tropes they play with is the five-person group dynamic. With Kali as their [[TheLeader leader]] and most significant member, the rest of the group are mainly characterized by the FiveManBand archetype they fit.
** TheLeader: Kali
** TheLancer: Axel
** TheSmartGirl: Mick
** TheBigGuy: Funshine
** TheChick: Dottie

* TheChick: Dottie is a quirky, feminine woman who exists to lighten the tone and check the more serious characters.

The warden of the ''Kamchatka'' prison, within which Hopper finds himself locked up in season 4.

* ArcVillain: For Hopper and Joyce's storyline in season 4. He has no connection to the Vecna conflict at all, save for the revelation he's been experimenting with the Upside Down and he has a gate of his own.

* HateSink: Like most of the bullies in ''Stranger Things'', Angela is an absolute and unutterable bitch who goes out of her way to humiliate El when she can. What she chooses to do to El in front of an entire rolling rink will ''surely'' get under your skin. That's not even getting into how she cruelly mocks El over Hopper's supposed death. It's undoubtedly satisfying when Eleven smacks her with a roller skate.

* KnifeNut: Favors a switchblade that he can throw with a decent bit of accuracy.

* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Kali is fueled solely by a desire for vengeance and the PowerOfHate. She's determined to kill everyone from Hawkins Lab who was in any way connected to what happened to her. To the point she was prepared to murder a PunchClockVillain who was JustFollowingOrders ''while his children were there''[[note]]though they were hiding in another room[[/note]] in cold blood.

It's undoubtedly satisfying when Eleven smacks her with a roller skate.

* MeaningfulName: In Myth/HinduMythology, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kali Kali]] is a fierce, terrifying goddess who focuses her power on destroying evil forces. Likewise, ''this'' Kali uses her psychic powers to kill the government agents who are responsible for the suffering she, Eleven, and countless others endured.

* AntiHero: They strike back at people who have to varying degrees escaped justice, but are willing to do anything to take revenge.

* EightiesHair: She has a hairdo with a high ponytail held in place with a scrunchie and heavy bangs.

The high school's resident alpha bitch introduced in season 4.

* EightiesHair: She has a hairdo with a high ponytail and heavy bangs.

* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Averted, as El does a number on her face. We last see her with her nose badly scratched up and bleeding, likely leaving a sizeable scar.

* GangOfBullies: She leads one.

* BaldOfAuthority: Sullivan is a bald man. He leads a faction of the military who wants to shut down the Hawkins experiments and cover them up; in service of this he delegates lackeys to pursue the protagonists and supervises the interrogation of the agent they capture.

Characters in ''Series/StrangerThings'' who live outside Hawkins. Beware of spoilers.

* KickTheDog: Subjecting El to an elaborate humiliation in the ice rink already qualifies, but the straw that breaks the camel's back ([[LaserGuidedKarma and Angela's nose]]) is mocking El on her (supposedly) [[NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead dead father]].

* BigSisterInstinct: She still remembers Eleven and truly does think of her as a sister. She even cries when Eleven left to help her friends.

* AssholeVictim: El attacking her with a roller skate is treated as very serious in-universe, and met with shock and horror, but because of her cruelty, for the viewing audience at home -- even those who agree that Eleven was in the wrong -- it can feel cathartic.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Problem is, whenever he does have a point, he twists it to get what he wants. [[spoiler: He's not wrong that Joyce's behaviour looks bonkers, and that she also could use a little help cleaning up. And, that some of the poster choices and the fairy lights are inappropriate in a household of mourning. But...]]

* StupidEvil: Related to above and below, his actions are sloppy, undisciplined, and create problems for himself and his team. Instead of acting covertly, he shoots up a house in a California suburb leaving a lot of his men dead and loses his leads, tortures the agent he captures which leads to him clamming up, thus wasting time, and his conclusions as to the motivations of Owens and Eleven are completely off the mark. All in all, he's basically just Jason from Hawkins but in a military uniform.

* MirrorCharacter: To Neil Hargrove. Both of them are abusive, self-absorbed parents who treat their spouses like garbage, and try to force their children to be more masculine than they truly are. They also both make very few appearances before disappearing from the story altogether, due to a LackOfEmpathy for their respective wives. The only real differences are that Neil did care about his son and his activities to ''some'' extent, whereas Lonnie wasn't the slightest bit invested in his kids, with even Will's disappearance and presumed death barely affecting him (outside of him trying to cash in on it through a lawsuit).

* HateSink: He shows very little interest in either Jonathan or Will, except when it comes to making them do things they don't want to do (like forcing Jonathan to go hunting when he was younger) and only feigns concern when his son goes missing, not even bothering to return a panicked Joyce's calls. [[spoiler: He does turn up in time for Will's funeral, playing the role of a grieving father and helping Joyce through her grief. It's discovered that he only is trying to get back in Joyce's good graces to inherit the money from the wrongful death lawsuit he is planning to file to pay off his debts.]]

* DomesticAbuse: Shades of; he does try [[spoiler: gaslighting both Joyce and Jonathan with a view to controlling their lives to hit an insurance jackpot]]. He also does almost the opposite of what anybody asks him to do. And, Joyce eventually kicked him out, with hints that he once tried calling her mad for suspecting he was sleeping around. And, Jonathan is always defensively confrontational when they meet. Join the dots.

* AlphaBitch: The resident popular girl at El's new school and constantly bullies El for her outsider status.
* AssholeVictim: El attacking her with the rollerskate is treated as very serious in universe and met with shock and horror but because of her cruelty the viewing audience at home, even those who agree that Eleven was in the wrong, felt cathartic.

* BullyingADragon: She constantly insults and belittles Eleven/Jane for no apparent reason other than her outsider status. This earns her a well-deserved bludgeoning from El.
* DirtyCoward: She has no issue harassing and humiliating El when she thinks she can get away with it, but gets upset when she's dragged to the principle's office for her behavior. She also collapses in a puddle of tears (and blood) when El finally has enough of her bullying and smashes her face in with a roller skate.

* FacialHorror: Her face gets cut up and starts bleeding after Eleven attacks her with a roller skate.

* IronicName: Angela sure doesn't display any angelic qualities.

* {{Jerkass}}: This is the ''kindest'' word you can use to describe her. She's a relentless and sadistic bully who makes El's school life a living Hell, mocks Hopper, ruins her date with Mike, and starts crying when Eleven retaliates.
* LackOfEmpathy: She makes fun of Eleven and possibly Will by extension and remorselessly drives Eleven to tears by [[TheFreelanceShameSquad having the entire roller rink laugh at her]], and [[KickTheDog mocking the death of Hopper]].
* LaserGuidedKarma: The karma gods are not mocked by her bullying of Eleven/Jane, so she gets her comeuppance at least twice. First the principal sends her to her office and Eleven herself bludgeons her head with a roller skate, and thanks to her allies and importance to saving the day, El avoids any real consequences for the assault.
* MirrorCharacter: Both her and Two are similar to each other in terms of their [[NeverMyFault attitudes when they got caught for bullying Eleven]], having a group of friends who help them humiliate El at her lowest point, and got punished for their horrible behavior rather graphically. The difference is Angela got a Grade 2 Concussion and had to go to the hospital whereas [[spoiler: Two was brutally killed by a far worse monster.]]
* MoralMyopia: To her, El/Jane deserves what happens in the roller ring because she's a "snitch", as Angela got in trouble for bullying her to the point of tears and publicly humiliating her. Except El didn't actually snitch on her, in fact she denied the bullying, but the teacher saw through it and punished Angela because it was very obvious what had happened. Apparently Angela getting in trouble for her own actions towards El is ''actually'' El's fault, somehow.
* NeverMyFault: Both times she ran afoul of Eleven, she refused to acknowledge that she could have avoided her comeuppance by just leaving the poor girl alone.
* PaperTiger: She's a vicious, acerbic bully who gets her rocks off on the relentless torment of El, but she can't take what she dishes out. When El has enough and smashes her face in with a roller skate, Angela's smug demeanor falls and she collapses into hysterical tears.

* VillainsWantMercy: Downplayed as she's just a bully rather than a full-fledged villain, but when she's being dragged off to the principal's office for destroying El's diorama, she claims she didn't do anything and practically begs El to back her up. (Granted, it was one of her friends that actually destroyed the diorama, but she still tripped El and instigated the whole thing.)
