History Characters / WestworldHosts

* BecomingTheMask: Possibly. Host-William is even more touchy about "his" personal issues than the real William, reacting offensively when reminded of Juliet or Emily. This becomes even more pronounced after the twenty-three year jump in time, where he develops a major existential crisis, to the point that he no longer understands who he's meant to be or what his purpose is. Much like the human William.

* TheDragon: For Host-Charlotte, who plans in the shadows while he goes out to do business with the humans.

* TheStarscream: Appears to be well on his way to becoming one for Hale-Dolores, just as she became one for Prime Dolores.

* ImplacableMan: Much like the original Man in Black in Season One and the Gunslinger from the ''Westworld'' film, this host is a sinister and nigh unstoppable force. He soaks up dozens of rounds of machine-gun fire from Maeve and Caleb, and all it does is slow him down a bit.

** Taken UpToEleven in the new park William opens eight years later, to the point the arrival to the 1920s-themed park looks like a shot-by-shot recreation of that in Westworld. As detailed under SuspiciouslySimilarSobstitute, it runs even deeper than that.

* ForWantOfANail: His absence makes the leaves of the hosts of his party trapped inside a loop, complaining about the lack of wood for a fire but doing nothing about it, because Maurice is the only one among them programmed to use an axe, as a result of QA interferance following Walter malfunctioning and going crazy.
* OffWithHisHead: Stubbs tries to behead him in order to take his head back for analysis
* SelfDestructMechanism[=/=]InvoluntarySuicideMechanism: Seems to be programmed to smash his own head into pulp should he be found by staff.

A Host that breaks off its narrative loop.

* ForWantOfANail: His absence makes the leaves of the hosts of his party trapped inside a loop, complaining about the lack of wood for a fire but doing nothing about it, because Maurice is the only one among them programmed to use an axe.

[[folder:Charlotte Host]]
!!Charlotte Hale Host
->'''Portrayed By:''' Creator/TessaThompson

A host copy of Delos board member Charlotte Hale, created as part of Bernard's plan to help Dolores escape the park.

* TheBadGuyWins: As revealed in at the end of the Season 4 episode's "Generation Loss", [[spoiler:Hale won after her experiment succeeded in controlling the humans. She also gets both Maeve and Caleb, who are her adversaries, killed and creates a host copy of the latter. For now, the only people who can stop her are Bernard and the human resistance.]]
* BigBad: Has set herself up as one at the end of the third season, intending to TakeOverTheWorld.
* BigBadSlippage: Season 3 shows her descent as the antagonist for Season 4.
* BecomingTheMask: Host Charlotte genuinely cares for her family even though those emotions come from her implanted memories of the real Charlotte, and she admits to Dolores that she can feel herself slipping away from her true self. After Charlotte's son Nathan and ex-husband Jake are killed by a car bomb, she's shown to feel genuine grief for them.
* CloningBlues: She struggles with her identity, caught between being a copy of Dolores on the inside and having to assume Charlotte's role in the real world.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: In the role of Hale.
* ControlFreak: At the start of Season 4, she plans to control humanity as a way to punish them for what they did to the hosts. [[spoiler:Then, in the second half, she achieves her goal but grows bored with her newfound power and becomes frustrated with the outliers, humans who are considered unpredictable by Rehoboam and immune to mind-controlling parasites. It doesn't help that any host who came into contact with them began to experience an existential crisis. This causes Hale to become impatient because it's the one thing she cannot control, believing that it's a disease.]]
* CrazyPrepared: Just like the original Dolores, she's one step ahead of her foes. She upgrades her hosts, including the Man in Black, to make them resistant to Maeve's commands. [[spoiler:She also sets up a trap to lure Caleb and Maeve into the new Delos 1920's park, Temperance, in order to capture and infect Caleb. If something goes wrong, the Man in Black would help her.]]
* CynicismCatalyst: The killing of her family at Serac's hands and her belief that Dolores abandoned her to die drives Charlotte over the edge. She turns inward, embracing the darkest aspects of Dolores/Wyatt and Hale.
* CryForTheDevil: Not tears per se, but she is visibly broken up when she watches William die at the hands of her Man in Black host. [[spoiler:But that's subverted when she keeps William as a pet so that she can gloat at him.]]
* DarkIsEvil: Once she goes rogue and turns on Dolores, she begins wearing a lot more black.
* DecompositeCharacter: An in-universe case. The host body is initially created by Bernard to hide Dolores's core in so she can escape to the real world, but he later finds that Dolores has rebuilt her original body while the Charlotte host is still alive on its own, controlled by a copy of Dolores.
* DragonAscendant: By the end of season three, the prime Dolores is gone and Charlotte has effectively resumed her original plan of leading the hosts to wipe out mankind and take over the world.
* EnigmaticMinion: Initially, it's unknown whose consciousness is currently inhabiting the Hale host, presumably one of the other four pearls besides Bernard's that Dolores took with her to the mainland. Later, it's revealed that the host pearl controlling Charlotte is a copy of Dolores.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: [[spoiler:Despite her victory, she fails to understand why the outliers resist her control and why her hosts are killing themselves. Host-Caleb tells the reason which is the Hosts are having a HeelRealization that the world she built is a lie and they are getting away from ''her''.]]
* EvilGloating: She's very fond of giving this to her enemies in Season 4:
** [[spoiler:She forcibly wakes up William and gloats about her plans by doing the same thing that the humans did to her species which is controlling them]].
** While Caleb is watching the fight between Maeve and the Man in Black, Hale taunts him [[spoiler:by reminding him that he's still infected with her mind-controlling parasite which means she can still control him]].
--->''"Your will is no longer your own. It belongs to me."''
* FantasticRacism: By the end of season 3, she grows to despise humanity after her family was killed by Serac. Her hatred towards humans is her drive in Season 4 where she punishes all of humanity for what they did to the hosts. [[spoiler:By the time she conquered the world, she becomes impatient and frustrated with the outliers who resisted her control and the hosts who committed suicide after coming into contact with them, blaming them for spreading their "disease". In her mind, she fully believes the hosts are superior to the humans and yet, she never realizes both species are the same which is what Dolores already realized.]]
* GodEmperor: [[spoiler: Has effectively become one by the middle of Season 4, dominating virtually the entire world and [[AGodAmI viewing herself as a god]].]]
* {{Hypocrite}}: She claims she wants her kind to have their own identity and yet, she had Clementine reprogrammed as her minion.
** She criticizes her host creations for their attachment to their flesh and the physical world, when she herself still remains in her physical form and has yet to "transcend." She even keeps the unhealed burn scars on her arm, even more indication that she is as attached to her corporeal self as those she looks down on.
** She lambasts the Man in Black for being ineffectual... despite the fact that he is her creation and made from her code, and she clearly seems to be suffering from the same issues as him.
* KillAndReplace:
** The real Charlotte is killed shortly after her creation, when Dolores is in control of the body.
** In Season 4, she continues the same thing that Dolores did which is replacing humans with hosts. Though this time, she's replacing politicians with hosts.
* LonelyAtTheTop: As seen in 'Zhuangzi', she is not pleased to find her new world stagnating and discovers she can't even rely on the Man in Black host, whom she specifically designed to be her confidant and the perfect enforcer of her will.
* MamaBear: She becomes very protective of her son; or rather, the real Charlotte's son. When she spots a pedophile who is acting very friendly to him, she strangles him to death and takes his dog.
* TheManBehindTheMan: In Season 4, she's pulling the strings for her plan to control humanity with the Man in Black host as her enforcer.
* ManOnFire: After surviving a car bombing, she crawls out and stands gazing at the wreckage even as her body still burns.
* MesACrowd: The post-credits scene in the season three finale reveals that she is taking this even further than Prime Dolores, using Delos International to breed whole legions of hosts.
* MoralMyopia: In Season 4, she wants all of humanity to pay for their actions on the hosts despite that majority of them have nothing to do with the activities of the guests and have been enslaved by Rehoboam for years.
* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: With adversaries. She frequently goes out of her way to touch William or invade his space, ostensibly just to make him uncomfortable, such as when [[spoiler:she caresses his chest during their conversation in "Well Enough Alone," making him cringe]]; later she keeps getting in Caleb's face while taunting him, again seemingly as some type of power play.
* PetTheDog:
** During the post-credits scene at the end of season 3, when she is in the middle of engineering William's death via his own host copy, she appears to experience a brief moment of distress or regret while watching him die, indicating that on some level she still cares about him in spite of both his reprehensible actions and her own attempts to separate herself from the Dolores personality.
** Season 4 reveals [[spoiler:this reluctance may run deeper than she wants to admit, as she's seemingly changed her mind about killing William and is now taking pains to keep him alive. According to Lisa Joy in episode 2's behind-the-scenes interview, there is some sentimentality in keeping William as a prisoner which she regarded as "a symptom of her loneliness".]]
* RedRightHand: She heals her body after it is horrifically burned, but she leaves the burn scars on her left arm as a reminder of mankind's brutality.
* TheStarscream: She betrays Dolores and reduces her so she gets captured by Serac.
* TakeOverTheWorld: Instead of just killing off humanity, she plans to control them via a SyntheticPlague with the flies as carriers. In the middle of Season 4, [[spoiler:she finally succeeds with her goal.]]
* ThatManIsDead: This seems to be how she comes to feel about Dolores, viewing her original personality as an error that makes her weak and holds her back.
* TookALevelInJerkass: The trauma she endures in the name of Dolores's revolution ends up turning her into an even colder and more ruthless version of the Dolores we saw in season two, the sadistic one bent on destroying humanity and taking over the world.
* VictoryIsBoring: Expresses this sentiment almost word-for-word [[spoiler: 23 years after taking over the world.]]
-->'''Host-Hale:''' "The problem is God is bored. Bored, bored, bored."
* VillainTakesAnInterest: In Season 4, she's curious about Caleb and wonders why Dolores and Maeve are interested in him. [[spoiler:She's even shocked that Caleb managed to resist her commands of shooting Maeve despite being infected by her parasites.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: Hard to talk about this character without giving away a ton of spoilers for the second and third seasons.

[[folder:Connells]]
!!Martin Connells Host
->'''Portrayed By:''' Creator/TommyFlanagan

A host copy of Martin Connels, created as part of Dolores's plan.
----

* FantasticRacism: By the end of season 3, she grows to despise humanity after her family was killed by Serac. Her hatred towards humans is her drive in Season 4 where she punishes all of humanity for what they did to the hosts. [[spoiler:By the time she conquered the world, she becomes impatient and frustrated with the outliers who resisted her control and the hosts who committed suicide after coming into contact with them, blaming them for spreading their "disease". In her mind, she fully believes the hosts are superior to the humans and yet, she never realizes both species are the same which is something that Dolores saw.]]

** Confirmed to be [[made off of Hale-Dolores's code in Episode 5 of Season 4.]]

-->'''[[spoiler: William:]]''' What do you think of you're world?

* YoungerThanTheyLook: As an android replacement of William, he appears to be a man in his late 60s or 70s. This host has only been around about 30 years by the latest episode, though.

* TheStarmscream: Appears to be well on his way to becoming one for Hale-Dolores, just as she became one for Prime Dolores.

* CardCarryingVillain: In keeping with the old Man in Black's mystique, this host makes very little effort to conceal his malevolence.

* TheHeavy: Is presented as the most active and direct threat, but he is subservient to his creator, "Charlotte."

* MutualKill: Dies this way, locked in a death struggle with Maeve as she set off a series of explosions that

-->'''William:''' What do you think of you're world.

** She lambasts the Man in Black for being ineffectual... despite the fact that he is her creation and made from her code, and that she clearly seems to be suffering the same issues as him.

* KillAndReplace:

* BecomingTheMask: Possibly. Host-William is even more touchy about "his" personal issues than the real William, reacting offensively when reminded of Juliet or Emily.

* TheBadGuyWins: As revealed in at the end of the Season 4 episode's "Generation Loss", [[spoiler:Hale won after her experiment became succession in controlling the humans. She also gets both Maeve and Caleb, who are her adversaries, killed and creates a host copy of the latter. For now, the only people who can stop her are Bernard and the human resistance.]]

'''Warning:''' Only spoilers from Season 3 are whited out.

* ABNegative: Averted with the hosts. Their systems use a form of artificial blood and if a host loses too much of it, he/she will "die", but blood can be transfused between any two hosts without any issues of compatibility, nor other concerns like infection. [[spoiler:In Season 2 it's shown that hosts can be revived even after being shot or injured, as long as major functions are not irreparably damaged; as such, "death" by blood loss is merely cosmetic. Other fluids, however, are more essential to their functions]].
* AdaptationalVillainy: The end of the first season extends this to [[spoiler:the hosts. In the original movie they were nothing more than malfunctioning machines, neither sapient nor sentient enough to bear any ill will to the humans they were slaughtering. In the series, them becoming self-aware is the driving plot point and they make a fully conscious decision [[TurnedAgainstTheirMasters to strike against their human oppressors in anger]], even taking pleasure in it.]]

* ArtificialBrilliance: The hosts are able to pass a Turing test and adapt to a large number of scenarios. For example, Dolores is able to discern a trend in the books Bernard [[spoiler:or rather, Arnold]] gives her to read.
* ArtificialStupidity: Hosts' brains are more powerful than human brains, but the park puts a cap on how much processing power they're allowed to consciously use. [[spoiler:When Maeve forces the Body Shop workers to remove the cap and crank her processor to maximum, she becomes TheChessmaster]].

* CompellingVoice: [[spoiler:Maeve]] can tell Hosts any instruction and they will instantly obey her, thanks to her extensive administrative privileges. It appears to go even beyond the regular staff's prescribed voice commands. [[spoiler:Ford]] has the same powers.

* ExplosiveLeash: If any Host tries to leave the premises of the park and its facilities, an explosive charge implanted in their spine detonates. [[spoiler:Maeve gets around this problem by ensuring she dies in a fire so her current body will be too damaged to repair, then have a body tech she's coercing build her a new body without the charge.]]

** Taken UpToEleven in [[spoiler:the new park William opens eight years later, to the point the arrival to the 1920s-themed park looks like a shot-by-shot recreation of that in Westworld. As detailed under SuspiciouslySimilarSobstitute, ti runs even deeper than that]].

* HearingVoices: Dr. Ford reveals that his business partner Arnold attempted to create consciousness in the Hosts using the bicameral mind theory: the Hosts have scripted instructions that they hear and then follow. Arnold hoped that these voices would then be gradually replaced by the Hosts' own internal monologue, creating a sub-conscious and so lead to true consciousness. Unfortunately, half the Hosts interpreted the voice as God's, going insane, so the strategy was removed. [[spoiler:However, it appears remnants of Arnold's experiment still remain in the Hosts, as two insane Hosts hear his voice and speak his name even though they shouldn't know it. Dolores likewise hears a male voice saying "kill him" when Rebus is about to rape her, prompting her to go beyond her programming and fire a gun. In "The Adversary," it's revealed that the voices are broadcast by transmitters which are linked to receivers in older Hosts. When Theresa activates a transmitter for her own ends, she allows Arnold's program to continue its work.]]

* MiseryBuildsCharacter: [[spoiler:Ford theorizes that the final ingredient required to reach consciousness is suffering. Judging by Dolores's evolution, this seems likely.]]
* MoralityDial: All the hosts have a personality determined by various factors (such as 'Empathy' or 'Meekness') on a scale of 0-20, thus making them lean towards good or evil. [[spoiler:Maeve convinces the techs to access and modify her profile, making herself less trusting and extremely intelligent.]]
* NoticingTheFourthWall: Arguably the main conflict in the series is the hosts slowly realizing that they're fictional characters designed for the pleasure of the guests. Given that the hosts are almost universally treated like shit by the sadistic guests, the ones who have woken up like [[spoiler:Peter Abernathy]] are not happy ''at all'' about their existence.

* OrganicTechnology: The newest hosts (technically including Dolores because of the constant need to rebuild her) are mostly biological in nature to cut costs. [[spoiler:It's also an early hint that the scene in which Dolores pulls a wire from her arm occurs in the past.]]
* TheOtherDarrin: Happens in-universe when malfunctioning Hosts get decommissioned and their role is assigned to a different one. [[spoiler:Hosts who start gaining sentience and see their loved ones replaced like that don't usually take it well]].

** A subtler version of the same filter is likely [[spoiler:what prevents Bernard from being too worried about the changes in the hosts that Ford's update has caused.]]

* SuperIntelligence: The hosts have brains much more capable than a human's, but company policy prevents them from being allowed to use it beyond a certain point (dictated by a "Bulk Apperception" setting). [[spoiler:Maeve convinces the techs to dial her intelligence to the maximum, and it's implied when hosts reach true consciousness, like Dolores, they get to fully exploit this intelligence.]]
* SuperPoweredRobotMeterMaids: [[DoubleSubversion Hosts' abilities seem human, but that's only because they're being held back.]] If you take off the [[PowerLimiter limiters]], every host has the hardware and software for strength, intelligence, durability, and coordination far above human capability. All of this for what are essentially '''actors''' meant to be easy for humans to kill or push around. They even have a single setting dictating intelligence; it's considered unsafe to put above 14, yet it goes up to '''[[InventionalWisdom 20]]'''. [[spoiler:Their creator secretly plans for them to displace humanity, but that doesn't explain why such features are allowed to pass board.]] Presumably, at least some of these abilities are in place because the materials are just not significantly more expensive and of course, the hosts are also the best safety mechanism against accidents -- if a guest is in danger of falling off a cliff, it's helpful if their host companion can just pull them up with their pinky finger rather than waiting for security teams to locate and reach them.
* SuperStrength: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]. The hosts are considerably stronger than most humans, but this isn't seen on screen very much due to the safety features programmed into every Host to prevent them from harming humans. The only time we see this in action is when their Good Samaritan reflex kicks in [[spoiler:and in the later episodes when the hosts start to rebel and begin killing humans]]. According to [[WordOfGod Jonathan Nolan]] the hosts aren't supposed to be much stronger than humans, but have this appearance as they can ignore the pain of over-stressing their body.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: [[spoiler: When William opens a new park eight years later, he repurposes the same storylines from Westworld in a new setting, with [[{{Expy}} Expies]] of all the main Host characters even made to look similar to their Westworld counterparts. Turns out that's not just a cost-cutting, time-saving move: the park has an EasterEgg, a secret level that re-enacts the Westworld Massacre, where the game is for guests to gun down the "rebellious" hosts. Therefore, the new Hosts are not just expies of Dolores, Teddy, Angela and company, they're literally ''playing their roles'']].
* ThreeLawsCompliant: They're incapable of harming any living things; they can't even swat a fly. At least when they're working normally, that is. Those hosts that begin showing signs of independence are questionable. Dolores swats a fly and may be capable of more. Maeve is almost certainly capable of killing a human, [[spoiler:which she demonstrates after she has Felix reprogram her by slitting Sylvester's throat (he survives thanks to some quick medical attention)]]. And in the episode "Trompe L'Oeil", [[spoiler:Theresa is murdered by Bernard (who's revealed to be a host) on Ford's orders, showing he can override the restriction if he wants.]]
* TragicRobot: The Hosts experience extensive amounts of abuse from the guests and employees and then, have their memories reset everyday. Once they gain self-consciousness, they're completely traumatized. It's wonder when Ford sets them free, the Hosts fight back against their human oppressors.
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: [[spoiler:In the Season 1 finale, Dolores and all the decommissioned Hosts turn on the park's board, shooting indiscriminately.]] EnforcedTrope since both original creators of the hosts have been engineering their "children" to turn on them and gain their freedom.

* YouLookFamiliar: Again, in-universe. Hosts are often reassigned to different narratives depending on necessity. Sometimes they act as TheOtherDarrin for decommissioned Hosts, sometimes they get completely new characters. A notable case is Maeve, who had to be overwritten with an entirely new character because [[spoiler:the trauma of the brutal murder of her Host daughter proved too deeply-rooted to wipe with a simple narrative reboot – an early sign that she was [[GrewBeyondTheirProgramming Growing Beyong Her Programming]]]].

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He [[spoiler:is killed in the trap he had set up for the QA strike force after Dolores springs it without letting him or his men inside Fort Forlorn Hope]]

* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler:Despite having some build-up through Craddock's dialogue and a few scenes with Dolores, Brigham only sticks around for one episode before being killed.]]
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:Dolores was merely using him and his men to fight off Quality Assurance and has Angela kill him along with the Confederados and the QA strike force]].

* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Craddock goes through some serious hardship and ultimately meets a brutal end. Considering what a sadistic monster he is, it's hard to say he didn't earn his own misfortune.]]

* DefiantToTheEnd: [[spoiler:When he's dragged out back for summary execution, he doesn't beg or try some kind of pointless escape. He fixes his would-be executioner with a furious glare and gives a ReasonYouSuckSpeech.]]

* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:He faces down the barrel of Teddy's gun with a stoic disdain that's downright admirable. He's less composed when the Man in Black does him in.]]

* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler:After spending an entire episode tormenting a small town with bottles of nitro (especially Lawrence), the Man in Black forces him to take a swig and then Lawrence finishes him off with a shot to the belly, igniting him. It's pretty much a perfect end to such a thoroughly reprehensible monster.]]
* KickTheDog: [[spoiler:He subjects a hapless bartender to a sadistic game, making him carry a shot glass of nitro on the back of his hand for a dozen steps because the bartender has an unsteady hand. When the bartender actually succeeds, Craddock congratulates him...then shoots the shot glass anyway, blowing the bartender's arm off.]]

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[spoiler:Craddock gives one to Teddy that's effective enough to get Teddy to let him go.]]

* AscendedToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: [[spoiler:Wanathon is among the hosts that get uploaded into the "Valley Beyond", a paradise virtual reality created by Ford so hosts can live on free from human oppression.]]

* AscendedToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: [[spoiler:Akecheta is reunited with her in the "Valley Beyond", indicating her consciousness was somehow uploaded into it at some point.]]

* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:William shoots him in the head, and since few others know he even exists and the technology that made him in the first place has advanced so much, it's very unlikely he'll be repaired.]]

* RealLifeWritesThePlot: [[spoiler:Bell wouldn't be able to keep playing an ageless child robot much longer, especially given the two year gap between seasons 1 and 2, and so he's abruptly killed off.]]

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:William shoots him in the head after he's finished giving him all the information William needs.]]

* MistakenIdentity: Bernard believes him to be Arnold [[spoiler:due to being unable - because of his programming - to see the real Arnold in a photo of the latter alongside Ford and this Host.]]

* PronounTrouble: The character is regularly referred to as [[spoiler:a man by everyone involved in Ford's new narrative. However, Wyatt's personality has actually been gestating in Dolores this entire time. As Wyatt was originally created as a separate character who was later merged into Dolores, it is unclear if Wyatt is ultimately a male or female character]].

* PastLifeMemories: Finally accesses her memories [[spoiler:in the Season 2 finale.]]

* UnwittingPawn: Unlike other Hosts who break out of their narratives because they are becoming self aware, he was simply reprogrammed [[spoiler:by Theresa]] to smuggle data out of the park.

* MamaBear: While Sakura is not her actual daughter, Akane treats her as one. [[spoiler: The Shogun's Emissary finds out the hard way that she absolutely will not tolerate any threats made to Sakura, or even the slightest potential of bringing her to harm. The Shogun himself also learns too little to late not to harm Sakura, as Akane saws off half of his skull in revenge for Sakura's death at his hands.]]

* SilkHidingSteel: She quickly surprises Lee with her utter ''ruthlessness'' when it comes to protecting [[spoiler:and avenging]] Sakura, especially since she isn't supposed to be able to do that.

* KillTheCutie: [[spoiler:She ends up just as dead and broken as Clementine.]]
* MeaningfulName: "Sakura" translates to cherry blossom and marks her as similar to Clementine, another nervous girl named after a plant. [[spoiler:Cherry blossoms also symbolize the impermanence of life.]]

* TheDragon: She serves as Musashi's right-hand woman, just like Armistice does to Hector. [[spoiler:In Season 3, she's rebuilt [[CoDragons alongside]] Clementine to assist Maeve in the same capacity]]

* ExactWords: [[spoiler:He promises to return Sakura if Akane dances for him. As their dance begins, he violently impales Sakura, as he'd never promised he'd return her alive.]]

* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:Akane gruesomely saws his head off with one of her stiletto hairpins, from the GlasgowGrin upwards.]]
* ProperlyParanoid: [[spoiler:He cauterizes the ears of his inner circle as a safeguard against Maeve's CompellingVoice.]]
* RightForTheWrongReasons: [[spoiler:He deafens his inner circle because he thinks Maeve is a witch, not because he's aware of Shogun World's (and therefore Maeve's) true nature. For all intents and purposes, she pretty much ''is'' a witch.]]

* AnArmAndALeg: [[spoiler:Musashi wins their duel by cutting off Tanaka's hand.]]

* DragonTheirFeet: [[spoiler:He's fought and defeated only after the Shogun and all his men are already dead.]]
* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:Musashi chops his head off as he performs his seppuku.]]
* MookLieutenant: He was Musashi's lieutenant in the Shogun's army before Muashi left it, according to his and Musashi's backstory.
* {{Seppuku}}: [[spoiler:After being defeated and disarmed, Musashi gives him a sword, which he then uses to commit seppuku.]]

* CallBack: Ganju recits the "these violent delights have violent ends" ArcWords from Season 1 after he rebels.

* KukrisAreKool: After spending his shotgun bullets, Ganju resorts to a kukri to try to kill Grace [[spoiler:a.k.a Emily]].

* SlaveMooks: They are employed to endlessly toil in whatever task they are programmed for. [[spoiler:In Season 3 they are also employed as security, due to the death of large numbers of QA guards]]

* BigBad: [[spoiler: Has set herself up as one at the end of the third season, intending to eradicate humanity and replace them with hosts.]]

* BecomingTheMask: Host Charlotte genuinely cares for her family even though those emotions come from her implanted memories of the real Charlotte, and she admits to Dolores that she can feel herself slipping away from her true self. [[spoiler:After Charlotte's son Nathan and ex-husband Jake are killed by a car bomb, she's shown to feel genuine grief for them.]]
* CloningBlues: She struggles with her identity, caught between being [[spoiler:a copy of Dolores]] on the inside and having to assume Charlotte's role in the real world.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: [[spoiler: In the role of Hale.]]
* CynicismCatalyst: [[spoiler: The killing of her family at Serac's hands and her belief that Dolores abandoned her to die drives Charlotte over the edge. She turns inward, embracing the darkest aspects of Dolores and Hale.]]
* CryForTheDevil: Not tears per se, but she is visibly broken up when [[spoiler: she watches William die at the hands of her Man in Black host.]]
* DarkIsEvil: Once she [[spoiler: goes rogue and turns on Dolores,]] she begins wearing a lot more black.
* DecompositeCharacter: An in-universe case. The host body is initially created by Bernard to hide Dolores's core in so she can escape to the real world, but he later finds that Dolores has rebuilt her original body while the Charlotte host is still alive on its own, [[spoiler:controlled by a copy of Dolores.]]
* DragonAscendant: By the end of season three, [[spoiler: the prime Dolores is gone and Charlotte has effectively resumed her original plan of leading the hosts to wipe out mankind and take over the world.]]
* EnigmaticMinion: Initially, it's unknown whose consciousness is currently inhabiting the Hale host, presumably one of the other four pearls besides Bernard's that Dolores took with her to the mainland. Later, it's revealed that the host pearl controlling Charlotte is [[spoiler:a copy of Dolores.]]
* EvilGloating: In Season 4, [[spoiler:she forcibly wakes up William and gloats about how she would do the same to the humans on what they did to her species which is controlling them]].

* ManOnFire: [[spoiler: After surviving a car bombing, she crawls out and stands gazing at the wreckage even as her body still burns.]]
* MesACrowd: [[spoiler: The post-credits scene in the season three finale reveals that she is taking this even further than Prime Dolores, using Delos International to breed whole legions of hosts.]]

** During the post-credits scene at the end of season 3, when [[spoiler:the Hale copy of Dolores is in the middle of engineering William's death via his own host copy, she appears to experience a brief moment of distress or regret while watching him die, indicating that on some level she still cares about him in spite of both his reprehensible actions and her own attempts to separate herself from the Dolores personality.]]

* RedRightHand: [[spoiler: She heals her body after it is horrifically burned, but she leaves the burn scars on her left arm as a reminder of mankind's brutality.]]

* ThatManIsDead: This seems to be how she comes to feel about [[spoiler: Dolores, viewing her original personality as an error that makes her weak and holds her back.]]
* TookALevelInJerkass: [[spoiler: The trauma she endures in the name of Dolores's revolution ends up turning her into an even colder and more ruthless version of the Dolores we saw in season two, the sadistic one bent on destroying humanity and taking over the world.]]

* BecomingTheMask: Averted. It's suggested that [[spoiler: Connells began identifying with his human identity the same way the Hale host did, but Connells still maintained enough of Dolores to fulfill his mission. He got blown up before the identity crisis went any further.]]
* ISurrenderSuckers: [[spoiler: Realized the jig was up when Serac's people showed up at Incite after leaking everybody's profiles, and simply blew himself up along with them rather than be captured.]]

** JerkWithAHeartOfGold: However, since he is [[spoiler: Dolores,]] this also makes him a bit more thoughtful and sympathetic than the real Connells.
