* TheWoobie: Christopher Dylans. ''So much''.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Dakota Allen has pink hair.

* [[spoiler: KillEmAll: Icon and Candy are the only two survivors out of the main players...until the final round, [[DistantFinale which takes place six months later]], in which a car crashes into Candy and Icon commits suicide.

* [[TheAlcoholic The Alcoholic]]: Beatrix Devon.

* [[ArchEnemy Arch Enemy]]: Piper Boudreaux's arch-nemesis is a giant ghost crab named Webster.

* [[AscendedExtra Ascended Extra]]: Morty Gunderson began as just another background NPC; a worker at the Burger Hut. But after he made his debut in [[spoiler:Lindsey's]] execution, he grew into a fully-fleshed character (a paranoid, bitter vigilante), arguably just as prevalent as all the player characters in the game, and was central to the game's climax.

* [[BreakTheCutie Break The Cutie]]: Poor, poor Christopher Dylans.

* [[CannotTellFictionFromReality Cannot Tell Fiction From Reality]]: Two major examples of this trope live in Aifam Cove.

* [[CharacterisationMarchesOn Characterisation Marches On]]: At the beginning of the game, Winston Teakes was still considerably deluded about how real life worked, but he was more affected by the events around him (such as [[spoiler:Christopher's murder]]), and did have a vague separation of reality from gaming. A few rounds into the game, he was fully convinced that he was the hero of everything he'd ever played, and that Aifam Cove was just another game he could turn on and off at will.

* [[DarkerAndEdgier Darker And Edgier]]: Compared to previous games of Mafia, Aifam Cove has a much darker, bleaker setting - and that's saying nothing about how the deaths play out...

* [[DespairEventHorizon Despair Event Horizon]]: Winston Teakes has a few harrowing moments in his deluded version of events, and even breaks down a few times, as heroes often do. But when [[spoiler:the mafia ultimately wins, some of the members even coming back to life (including the unnamed Hair Villain, the plot’s main enemy), and he can’t harm them as a ghost,]] he just shuts down, unable to deal with ‘this game’ anymore. He compartmentalizes Aifam Cove as just a malicious developer joke and succumbs entirely to his delusions, [[spoiler:huddling in his Xbox’s circuitry and dreaming of being the hero for the rest of his ghostly life.]]

* [[KidDetective Kid Detective]]: Ris Monaco. She takes her detectiveing very seriously.

* [[LastDisrespects Last Disrespects]]: Enna's funeral is a solemn occasion which brings the town together. [[spoiler:So the mafia kill a child and leave his body in the coatroom for everyone to find, and when everyone panics, the local children steal the urn with Enna's ashes and build a snowman around it.]]

* [[MamaBear Mama Bear]]: Alma Mathers-Fitzgibbon. Don't mess with her kids.

* [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone My God, What Have I Done?]] Winston, after attempting to capture an ''owned pokemon''. (Bea's dog.)

* [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: Anna Dywight, [[spoiler:the Chemist, gives her revival potion to Leland Bardsley right before she dies.

* [[NoodleIncident Noodle Incident:]] "House party at Juan's!"

* [[PrivateEyeMonologue Private Eye Monologue]]: Ris Monaco has a lot of these. ''A lot''.

* [[PunnyName Punny Name]]: Coena T. Bhaloid. [[spoiler:Say it out loud.]]

* [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight Unusually Uninteresting Sight]]: Fella C. Rapture, one of Aifam Cove's permanent residents and avid purveyor of the film industry, happens to be a velociraptor. Nobody particularly finds this unusual.

* [[WhatTheHellHero What The Hell, Hero?]]: More meta than in-character, as most execution deaths were written as Morty's actions, but the townspeople were ''incredibly'' bad at voting.
* [[TheWoobie Woobie]]: Christopher Dylans. ''So much''.

* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Pink Hair]]: Dakota Allen.
