* BewareTheNiceOnes: She may be a perpetual frowner and easily upset, but during the final immunity, she grows giant cannonballs of '''''steel'''''. ''She even taunts Jon as he tries to cut a deal with her.''



* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: Her ShutUpHannibal moment to Jon, who had been thoroughly dominating the season and backstabbing people left and right.



* ShutUpHannibal: To Jon at the final immunity challenge.

* Badass Boast: "And in my head, and mumbling under my breath, I was like "I swear on my kids that I'm gonna screw you [Jon] '''''and''''' Burton.""



* PowerTrio: Of the BeautyBrainsAndBrawn variety with Rupert and Christa - she was Brains.



* OutOfFocus: While she ''did'' have a bit of lines before she started winning immunities, she can be compared to Brett of Samoa by how suddenly she's in the limelight.



'''Christa Hastie'''

* ActionGirl: Lasted the longest out of her entire tribe in the 'hold a bar with weighted sandbags on it longer than anyone else' immunity challenge, and always came in extremely close to winning individual immunity (only loosing to fellow ActionGirl Darrah), which was ultimately why she was voted out.
* CuteButCacophonic: While not 'cacophonic', the most memorable part of Christa is that she sounds like she has a perpetual cold.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Sandra.
* PowerTrio: Of the BeautyBrainsAndBrawn variety with Rupert and Sandra. She was Beauty.
* TheWoobie: Was apparently hated a ''lot'' around camp: the reason Drake threw immunity challenge? To get her out. Who was blamed for sabotaging the tribe after Rupert was blindsided? Christa. You just had to feel sorry for the poor girl when she had most of the camp apart from her PowerTrio plotting against her.



* PowerTrio: Of the BeautyBrainsAndBrawn variety, with Sandra and Christa. He was Brawn.



'''Tijuana Bradley'''

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "T".



* BerserkButton: Upon being told by Jon while he was 'looting' the Morgan camp that Drake actually threw the first challenge they won. Andrew uses his fury to propel Morgan into all their further victories.






* TheStarScream: Made a failed attempt just before the merge to overthrow the Rupert/Christa/Sandra triumvirate on Drake by recruiting Drake's most hated members, Jon and Shawn, into voting out Rupert. Shawn initially agrees with the plan, later changes his mind, and fair weather friend Jon follows suit, which leads to a unanimous vote out against Trish.

* [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Hoist By Her Own Petard]]: The plan during the food-eating competition mentioned below was for Michelle to fake being disgusted by the food and get it down as slow as possible, so she would get chosen for the tiebreaker by Morgan. Unfortunately for her, she got it down too fast, and Morgan chose Sandra, who ACTUALLY had trouble, and that lost them the challenge. Bye-bye, Michelle.

'''Michelle Tesauro'''

* TheChick: On Drake, there was a three member alliance(four if Jonny Fairplay had joined up with them), consisting of [[TallDarkAndSnarky Burton]], [[TedBaxter Shawn]] and Michelle.
* Meganekko
* {{Tomboy}}: Admits to loving to eat and drink gross things, and proves it during the food eating competition in Episode 5.

* DangerouslyGenreSavvyDangerouslyGenreSavvy: The dead Grandma tactic was inspired by how other castaways in Survivor: Amazon responded to the news that Jenna Morasca's mother had cancer. Think about that; this was a guy who saw that news and decided to turn it into an actual tactic for ''winning Survivor.''

* ShoutOut: Made constant references to pro wrestling characters, especially during his Tribal Council vote testimonials.



* ActionGirl: Won three Immunity Challenges in a row, finished fourth because nobody wanted to compete against her in the endurance challenge.



* TheDogBitesBack: By being the main factor for why the Outcast Tribe beat both Drake and Morgan, he was the reason why Shawn was voted out immediately after. He then proceeded to be a key factor in both Rupert and Christa being voted out.
* TheDragon: To Fairplay.
