* {{Determinator}}: He tried for YEARS to get that curse broken.
* LaserGuidedKarma: He has a mistress and his wife finds out. His toy product won't sell because it's dangerous, and Bailiwick leaves him as a lawyer because he's rude. Madame Morena curses him because he insults her.
* MyLittlePanzer: His candy dispenser emits sparks of light.
* {{Jerkass}}: He even has "Make everyone hate me" checked off on his checklist.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Ransome just wants his prototypes back to make some money. He also tries to bilk his lawyer to pay for an autograph.
