* AwesomeByAnalysis: Despite not being as seemingly educated or as intelligent as Stringer Bell, Avon is nonetheless very shrewd and intuitive. He was able to outmaneuver Daniels during a car tailing. Furthermore in season 5 he figured out [[spoiler: Marlo's]] plan to get access to [[spoiler: Proposition Joe's]] drug supplier in order to have a monopoly on the drug trade in Baltimore as well undermine the CO-OP just by having a conversation with an inmate who's affiliated the supplier.

* MoralityChain: Avon's unnamed brother who is in a vegetative state seems to inform a lot of his kinder instincts, as he is aware of the human toll of the game and how dangerous it is. It separates him from someone like Marlo. It is a major reason why Avon allows Cutty out of the game and gives him money to start a boxing gym.

* {{Pride}}: Avon is quite proud of the drug empire him and his family has build up, and finds the idea of making any compromises with his rivals utterly intolerable, no matter how rational or even arguably necessary it might be to do so. Case in point, he verhemently puts the kibosh on Stringer's suggestion of making a deal with Proposition Joe for a share of territory in exchange for a cut of higher quality heroin supply that Joe's gang has access to, even though Avon's own severely troubled supply lines means that his own gang stands to lose that territory regardless.

* StupidEvil: It can be easy to miss, but the call that incriminates Stringer shortly before he is killed is Shamrock telling him that he got the shooters (hitmen) that String asked for. This implies he was planning to kill Clay Davis anyway, despite Avon shutting down this plan earlier and explaining to him why it was a horrible idea.

He follows and enforces the rules of survival in the streets diligently, excelled at violence and has a great understanding of the game. When he is arrested he takes the heat for all the murder charges the organization did to keep the other enforcers out. His absence is also partially blamed as to why the Barksdale Organization struggles to keep control of the streets after Season 1.
* CharacterDevelopment: His conversation with De'Londa at the end of Season 4 to convince her to give up Namond is the closest thing he ever does to expressing regret for his life of crime.
-->Well, look at me up in here. Who the fuck would want to be that if they could be anything else, De'londa?

** Season 4 reveals that Wee-Bey had been working for Stringer and Avon since they were teenagers, which makes him the most senior soldier by the time of Season 1. Additionally, Season 1 had the front businesses under the name "Triple B", which is implied to mean Barksdale, Bell, and Bey/Brice. In Season 3 Stringer operates under "B&B" once Wee-Bey is in jail for life.
