* WarIsHell: In the best outcome to "No Man's Land" Kirk confronts Trelane about how historically inaccurate his recreation of World War I is, and offers to "improve" it by referring to the historical data on the Enterprise's computer. The end result demolishes Terlane's romanticism about Earth wars.

** Two different ones in "Though This Be Madness". The first is a distress call from a Romulan ship in the Neutral Zone that turns out to be [[LuredIntoATrap a trap]]. The second is a ''real'' distress call from a Federation colony in the Klingon Neutral Zone, warning that a gigantic alien ship is about to land right on top of the colony.
* DoesntTrustThoseGuys: Klarr's aide in "Though This Be Madness" has a real bug up his ass for some reason regarding the Starfleet team. He interprets everything they do in a negative light, constantly looking for ways they might be trying to backstab the Klingon Empire.

* FalseInnocenceTrick: Implied to have been used by the Romulans to [[LuredIntoATrap lure the Enterprise]] into the Neutral Zone, get it to destroy a "rogue" Romulan vessel, and then uncharacteristically "forgive" the intrusion in exchange for knowledge about the Brassica. Kirk can then feign ignorance himself to avoid divulging any information.
* FriendlyRivalry: Between Captain Klarr and the ''Enterprise'' landing party during "Though This Be Madness". He is genuinely curious about the alien ship, and hopes to at least explore it in peace without butting heads with the Starfleet team. Unfortunately, he picked [[DoesntTrustThoseGuys the wrong officer]] to bring along as his aide. The friendly rivalry continues into the Brassican tests in the next mission, and even culminates in an act of mutual trust between him and Kirk.
* HateSink: Klarr's aide in "Though This Be Madness" is a stereotypical villain Klingon, constantly accusing the humans of attempted betrayal and eventually even accusing his own captain. This is all meant to further emphasize, by comparison, how level-headed Klarr is.
* LuredIntoATrap: An [[{{Sidequest}} optional encounter]] at the start of "Though This Be Madness" has Kirk violating the Romulan Neutral Zone to answer a DistressSignal from a Romulan ship. When the ''Enterprise'' arrives, it is attacked by a Warbird and must defend itself. As soon as the battle ends, several other Romulan ships arrive, though they "forgive" the intrusion - supposedly due to Kirk's altruistic motive for the violation, and the fact that he had destroyed a "rogue" Romulan ship - and instead use the opportunity to grill Kirk about the Brassica. Based on the modus operandi of the Romulans as portrayed throughout the ''Star Trek'' franchise, it's very likely that the entire affair was [[TheChessmaster just a big act]] orchestrated by the Romulans to try and get information about the Brassica, whose tests they had probably failed.
* {{Manchild}}: A very extreme case with Jakesey ("Though This Be Madness"), a grown man with severe mental development deficiency. He plays with blocks, loves his teddy bear, and has a very limited vocabulary.
* OnlySmartPeopleMayPass: Applies to nearly every SecretTestOfCharacter posed by the [[spoiler: Brassica]] throughout the game. Often involves TakeAThirdOption.
* TheParanoiac:
** Tuskin in "Though This Be Madness" thinks everyone is out to get him (except [[TheOnlyOneITrust Moll]]). He even has two large "bodyguard" friends to keep others away.
** To a lesser extent, Klarr's aide in the same mission is [[DoesntTrustThoseGuys fully convinced]] that the ''Enterprise'' team is playing some dirty trick on the Klingons, trying to steal information that would compromise Klingon security.
* TheOnlyOneITrust: In "Though This Be Madness", Tuskin has apparently realized that the food is [[TamperingWithFoodAndDrink drugged]], and only accepts food from Moll - who grows it in the ship's hydroponics garden. Kirk needs to take advantage of this by winning Moll's trust and getting her to deliver Tuskin food laced with a strong sedative.

* PortalDoor: One appears at the end of "Though This Be Madness", and takes you to the next mission. It's unclear whether it's actually a portal, or whether the whole thing is [[spoiler: nothing more than a holographic illusion]].
* RivalsTeamUp: The Klingon captain Klarr joins the ''Enterprise'' away-team for the final mission, "Yet There Is Method In It".
* RoyalBlood: At one point during "Though This Be Madness", Uhura must convince a man who thinks he is a king that she is descended from the rulers of Kush and Timbuktu to get him to speak with her. Failing to do so renders the mission UnwinnableByMistake in earlier versions of the game.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Kirk's justification for violating the Romulan Neutral Zone to answer a DistressSignal from a Romulan ship inside the zone (though you can just as easily choose not to go, without losing any points). It turns out to be [[LuredIntoATrap a trap]], but fortunately the Romulans were not actually intending to start a war... at least ''this time''.

* SleeperStarship: Spock speculates that the ''Compassion'' (in "Though This Be Madness") may be a sleeper ship sent out to make a round-trip. The Phays does confirm this, but is an UnreliableExpositor to begin with, and its own actions indicate it might have been a {{GenerationShip|s}} instead. Unfortunately, the true answer is never revealed because [[spoiler: the whole thing is really just a SecretTestOfCharacter to see if the humans would spot the contradictions]].
* SmarterThanYouLook: Gormagon in "Though This Be Madness" appears to be one of the smartest people on the Compassion, despite looking like a muscle-bound brute. Unlike his twin brother Rackaback, he thinks that violence should be the last resort, and is also quick to realize that the ''Enterprise'' away-team is there to help, not harm. He also [[SmartPeoplePlayChess loves to play chess]].

* SuperOCD: Puzzlewitt, a passenger on the Compassion (in "Though This Be Madness"), was obsessed with learning as much information as possible from the ship's computer library, not matter how inane or insignificant it was, in the hope that learning it all will help explain some grander purpose. When the data-reader was destroyed by another passenger, she crossed the DespairEventHorizon and became a vegetable.
* TamperingWithFoodAndDrink: The Phays is drugging all of the pre-packaged food on the Compassion with a small dosage of tranquilizers ("Though This Be Madness"), supposedly to keep the mental-patient passengers docile.

He refuses to speak to anyone because they are all peasants and beneath his notice. Fortunately, he in inclined to believe that Uhura is of RoyalBlood, and she can use this fact to trick him into leaving the room.

* AbsurdlyLongWait: The ''Enterprise'' crew are itching for some shore-leave throughout this entire game. They speak about it constantly, and each time their hopes for an upcoming leave are dashed by another set of orders coming from Starfleet.
** Episode 6, "Museum Piece", starts with the ''Enterprise'' finally headed to Nova Atar for shore-leave, but just as Kirk reassures the bridge crew that it's ''finally'' time to wind down, he gets a call from a Starfleet Admiral asking him to do some official business while he's down there.

* FlawedPrototype: Several of the exhibits in the Smithsonian Annex in "Museum Piece" are failed prototypes of technology that was either abandoned or improved. The most significant of these is an early transporter system that was too dangerous to use on living creatures, and was even dangerous [[ToxicPhlebotinum to be in the same room with]] when activated.

* FunctionalAddict: Scotty implies he has a craving for alcohol several times during the game, particularly in episode 6 ("Museum Piece") where the chance to taste some Kazakhstanian Cognac excites him enough to delay (or even entirely skip) the shore-leave he had been waiting for since the game began. When a terrorist attack interrupts a toast to the ''Enterprise'' with that prized cognac, Scotty calls it "a conspiracy [to frustrate him]".
* InsideJob: There are several indications that the terrorist attack on the Smithsonian Annex in "Museum Piece" was aided by someone on the inside. For one, the terrorists had accurate blueprints of the museum allowing them to tunnel out at exactly the right place. Furthermore, they managed to get someone into the Curator's office to BoobyTrap his security console.

* LockingMacGyverInTheStoreCupboard: Done unintentionally by the Lachian terrorists in "Museum Piece". They've shut down the security systems, they've locked all the doors, there's a shield overhead blocking both transmissions and sensors, and they're the only ones in the building who have access to any kind of weapons or electronics from outside. It's the perfect plan... with just one tiny problem: They've completely failed to make sure that none of the guests in this '''''museum of technology''''' happen to be [[TheEngineer Lieutenant Commander Montgomery Scott]].[[note]]Scotty's solution to the locked doors?

* MagneticWeapons: To get through a heavy, locked metal door in "Museum Piece", Scotty cannibalizes several of the museum's exhibits for parts and [[MacGyvering constructs a mass driver]]. The projectile ends up being a large medieval lance. Scotty's improvised weapon turns out to be so powerful it leaves very little of the door intact, and ends up [[DestructiveSaviour destroying several antique exhibits on the other side]].

* MishmashMuseum: The Smithsonian Annex on Nova Atar is this. Although it is strictly a museum of technology, there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to the way the exhibits are organized. You'll find an alien crystalline computer next to an early engineering robot, and a control console from a Klingon warship next to an experimental battery-charging platform.

* NoGearLevel: "Museum Piece" takes place at the Smithsonian Annex on Nova Atar. The museum's security standards require that no electronic equipment of any kind be brought in by visitors, so the away-team has to leave their phasers and tricorders back on the ''Enterprise'' before beaming in.
