* DynamicEntry: The coterie have their first meeting with Odette after Betty kicks down the door of the room where she's interrogating an Anarch.
* FallingChandelierOfDoom: [[spoiler:A massive chandelier at the Museum of Glass is dropped on the vampires and their servants.]]
* FieryRedhead: Odette the Hound of Tacoma, Washington, a superstrong Brujah in biker leathers.
* GirlPosse: Referenced. When Tom gets together with his fellow Toreador Evangeline, recently promoted primogen and [[AlphaBitch Harpy]] of the Tacoma court, the two of them immediately begin sniping and gossiping about the other clans. Betty calls him a "mean girl", saying he's like a whole other person with her.
* HamToHamCombat: Happens whenever Jamison and Sergei are in the same scene, both being [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness garrulous]] vampire sophisticates who make up for their clan's deformities with beautiful menswear and elaborate good manners. Both come from a more polite age -- [[TheFifties the 1950s]] and late 19th or early 20th Centuries, respectively.
* HappilyMarried: Betty and her mortal husband, at least according to her.
* HatesBeingTouched: Betty is a rare vampire who loathes drinking directly from a vessel, after so many years spent drinking bagged blood.
* HeIsNotMyBoyfriend: After spending the night at Antony Giovanni's mansion -- alone, in a separate room -- Amanda can't get anyone to believe that they didn't sleep together. Word travels fast among vampires, and it becomes a RunningGag, with [[spoiler:Volkov and even Gravenstein]] asking her if it's true.
* HumanPopsicle: Vampires in torpor are preserved until they awaken, able to survive for days, even decades, in an unconscious state. It's pointed out that this is not the same as merely being staked, which paralyzes the vampire, but allows them to remain conscious and aware of everything happening around them. The sacrificial diablerist ("vampire cannibal") the coterie finds in the suitcase has been staked and folded up in a suitcase for what seems like decades, but instantly awakens once the stake is removed. [[spoiler:Prince Gravenstein, on the other hand, is properly in torpor and staked. For most of the season it's unclear who did it to him. In the final episode it's revealed he had it done to himself in the midst of what seemed like Gehenna, the [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt vampire apocalypse]], to ride it out and see if things settled down.]]
* HumanShield: How Betty manages to survive the FallingChandelierOfDoom: grabbing a hapless waiter and ducking underneath him.
* InterrogationByVandalism: Betty gets Mr Drew to talk by threatening to let her blood-red lipstick have an intimate meeting with his [[VillainInAWhiteSuit brilliant white jacket]].
* ILoveTheDead: The Giovanni bloodline are a tightly-knit family of {{Necromancer}}s, and it's widely known that they sometimes raise the dead in order to have sex with them. Antony freely admits this is true of some of his clanmates, but doesn't apply to him. The coterie don't really believe him.

Both Fiorenza and Mr Drew see it as a SuicideMission (with Fiorenza apparently wanting Betty to be taken out most of all).
* YouOweMe: Favours are the major currency of Kindred society, and saving another vampire's life is one way of earning their boon.
** After the gang bail her out trouble when she's taken by surprise by an Anarch prisoner who escapes his bonds and shoots her twice, Odette offers Tom and Amanda each a boon [[IOweYouMyLife for saving her life]], giving them two of the bullets popped out of her regenerated undead flesh as markers.
** The Giovanni crime/vampire family did a number of favours to Prince Gravenstein before he disappeared, and want to find him so that they can collect. After collecting Amanda from the hospital his family owns and saving the remaining vampires at Elysium, Antony explicitly notes that he didn't do so out of kindness, but to put her in his debt. [[spoiler:Gravenstein is powerful enough that he doesn't care about repaying the Giovanni, who he hates anyway, but is willing to offer the coterie a debt for awakening him from torpor.]]
** While she doesn't see the act as boon-worthy, Evangeline is very grateful towards Tom after he [[spoiler:pulls her out of the way of a falling chandelier in Elysium]]. [[spoiler:Gravenstein]] uses the latter to his advantage in the final episode [[spoiler:by making Tom a Harpy, with the explicit instruction to get close to her and keep her in line.]]
** The attack on Elysium seems to be the result of a complicated web of favours, only the last of which was vampire crime boss Kremenko sending his goons to attack the glass museum. It's pointed out that the use of guns and vampires who could easily be tied back to him made the whole attack transparently foolish, and only the desperation to clear his debt could have made Kremenko order it. [[spoiler:The implication is that Kendrick arranged the attack himself, knowing his SuperToughness would allow him to easily weather the falling glass and bullets and allow him to play the hero as part of his bid for the throne.]]
* UriahGambit: Fiorenza is overheard saying that she doesn't expect any of the team to survive their mission but she ''explicitly'' hopes never to see Betty again. Tom takes this to mean she wants her dead, and given how generally unwelcome the Lasombra are in the Camarilla, this might well be true.
* VillainInAWhiteSuit: Mr Drew; unfortunately for him, this fashion choice soon proves to be nothing but trouble. The connotation in ''Vampire'' is of a person who is sufficiently badass to feed and fight without spilling a drop of blood, but Mr Drew is a cowardly functionary and not much else.
* WhamLine: "[[spoiler:And your father walks out,]]" in the middle of Elysium, among half a dozen local vampires.
* WhatHaveIBecome: PlayedForLaughs. Amanda makes for a pretty mousey vampire, nice, well-meaning, and deeply naïve; Tom is a tattoo artist who can't get any new tattoos, a junk food junkie who can't taste or hold down solid food anymore, and a no-bullshit tough guy thrust into a society of pretentious social backstabbers.

Added DiffLines:
[[folder: Season One]]
* {{Acrofatic}}: Tom is a Toreador with Celerity and a bit on the chunky side.
* AnimatedCreditsOpening: The series has one of these with an introduction for each character.
* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: While the offer is ''very'' generous, [[spoiler:Gravenstein makes it clear that his promotion of the coterie in the final episode]] is this.
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler:They awaken a torpid Nosferatu Elder that was meant to kill them but lock him out of the room as he's awakening with a bunch of their enemies. It works.]]
* CallingTheOldManOut: Despite being a DaddysGirl Amanda is sitting on a whole lot of daddy issues, which only ''increase'' after she discovers that [[spoiler:he is a ghoul and was probably the main reason she was embraced in the first place.]] She finally manages to call him out on some of these in the final episode.
* ColdBloodedTorture: Gravenstein is a master at this as Kindred are capable of taking a lot more punishment than normal humans.
* BigBad: Gravenstein, the former Nosferatu Prince of Tacoma, is set up to be this. [[spoiler:And then subverted in the final episode, when the coterie decide to side with him and he rewards them handsomely in return.]]
* CoolHouse: Both Amanda and Betty have large palatial mansions that they sleep in during the day.
* CoolOldGuy: Gravenstein is a hundred years old and the most formidable vampire the player characters meet in Season 1.
* ComedicSociopathy: Betty intending to murder a security guard with a straw because she didn't want to use her fangs.
* CourtMage: Kennedy is technically this, being the head Tremere in Tacoma's Camarilla, although more importance is paid to his duties as Keeper of the Elysium. [[spoiler:This is Amanda's new role after Gravenstein promotes her in the final episode, with him explicitly calling her his court wizard.]]
* CrapsackOnlyByComparison: Many jokes are had at Tacoma, Washington's expense. Particularly in relationship with Seattle.
* DaddysGirl: Amanda is so devoted to her father that she actually hears her Beast as his voice encouraging her to feed.
* DarkestHour: Played for laughs at the start of Chapter 3, when Tom whiffs a fight against a raccoon and fails to avenge his nachos, and again in Chapter 6, where Betty, who has been living on blood bags for years, wrestles with the idea of having to physically touch a living vessel to feed on them, nearly punching a metal eco-straw into his neck and drinking him "like a Capri Sun." Referenced by Jerry as "your worst moment" when they unstake Betty's prisoner, who, while paralyzed by the stake, was fully conscious and aware for the whole thing.
* DumbBlonde: Averted with Amanda. Despite looking like a stereotypical ValleyGirl college student, she has multiple academic specialities.
* DynamicEntry: The coterie have their first meeting with Odette after Betty kicks down the door of the room where she's interrogating an Anarch.
* FallingChandelierOfDoom: [[spoiler:A massive chandelier at the Museum of Glass is dropped on the vampires and their servants.]]
* FieryRedhead: Odette the Hound of Tacoma, Washington, a superstrong Brujah in biker leathers.
* GirlPosse: Referenced. When Tom gets together with his fellow Toreador Evangeline, recently promoted primogen and [[AlphaBitch Harpy]] of the Tacoma court, the two of them immediately begin sniping and gossiping about the other clans. Betty calls him a "mean girl", saying he's like a whole other person with her.
* HamToHamCombat: Happens whenever Jamison and Sergei are in the same scene, both being [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness garrulous]] vampire sophisticates who make up for their clan's deformities with beautiful menswear and elaborate good manners. Both come from a more polite age -- [[TheFifties the 1950s]] and late 19th or early 20th Centuries, respectively.
* HappilyMarried: Betty and her mortal husband, at least according to her.
* HatesBeingTouched: Betty is a rare vampire who loathes drinking directly from a vessel, after so many years spent drinking bagged blood.
* HeIsNotMyBoyfriend: After spending the night at Antony Giovanni's mansion -- alone, in a separate room -- Amanda can't get anyone to believe that they didn't sleep together. Word travels fast among vampires, and it becomes a RunningGag, with [[spoiler:Volkov and even Gravenstein]] asking her if it's true.
* HumanPopsicle: Vampires in torpor are preserved until they awaken, able to survive for days, even decades, in an unconscious state. It's pointed out that this is not the same as merely being staked, which paralyzes the vampire, but allows them to remain conscious and aware of everything happening around them. The sacrificial diablerist ("vampire cannibal") the coterie finds in the suitcase has been staked and folded up in a suitcase for what seems like decades, but instantly awakens once the stake is removed. [[spoiler:Prince Gravenstein, on the other hand, is properly in torpor and staked. For most of the season it's unclear who did it to him. In the final episode it's revealed he had it done to himself in the midst of what seemed like Gehenna, the [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt vampire apocalypse]], to ride it out and see if things settled down.]]
* HumanShield: How Betty manages to survive the FallingChandelierOfDoom: grabbing a hapless waiter and ducking underneath him.
* InterrogationByVandalism: Betty gets Mr Drew to talk by threatening to let her blood-red lipstick have an intimate meeting with his [[VillainInAWhiteSuit brilliant white jacket]].
* ILoveTheDead: The Giovanni bloodline are a tightly-knit family of {{Necromancer}}s, and it's widely known that they sometimes raise the dead in order to have sex with them. Antony freely admits this is true of some of his clanmates, but doesn't apply to him. The coterie don't really believe him.
* IsThereADoctorInTheHouse: Amanda screams this after [[spoiler:her father]] is seriously wounded during the attack on [[spoiler:the Elysium]]. Luckily for her, Kennedy does have medical training and is able to provide some assistance.
* LetsYouAndHimFight: The coterie's plan to survive the Nosferatu Elder when he awakens is to toss him out into a room full of Anarchs who are competing with the coterie, knowing he'll wake up ''hungry''. [[spoiler:It works.]]
* LightningBruiser: [[spoiler:Prince Gravenstein]]'s mastery of Potence makes him inhumanly strong, and he carves his way through a room full of younger vampires in under a minute. Betty compares him to a Cuisinart someone once gave her for Christmas.
* MasterOfNone: A character trait for Amanda -- she's an eternal student, hopping from one subject to another but never finishing her degrees. The other characters are unaware of this (though the players are), and thanks to some lucky rolls, mistake her for an OmnidisciplinaryScientist. Mechanically, she's more of a JackOfAllTrades, and she genuinely does possess a number of useful, albeit niche, specialties which come up on several occasions. She is quite an IneptMage for a Tremere, however, and knows almost nothing about her clan's signature Discipline of Blood Sorcery, though she tries to fake it.
* MercyKill: Jamison sees the act of him draining Betty's not-long-for-this-world MeatShield dry as this -- the KissOfTheVampire effectively anesthetized him in his final moments. The justification holds up, causing him not to gain a Stain on his Humanity in the mechanics of the game.
* MoralMyopia:
** Betty is fully capable of murder but finds it wrong to be a loose woman or overly forward about sharing blood. This is even the reason for her Bagger tendencies as she hates the intimacy that comes with the Kiss.
** Deliberately invoked in the fact that the coterie only cares about who will be Prince based on how it will affect them.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Amanda has this reaction [[spoiler:after they unleash the Nosferatu Elder on a bunch of Anarchs.]]
* {{Necromancer}}: The Giovanni clan are infamous among Kindred for their mastery over ghosts and ability to raise the dead ([[ILoveTheDead and occasionally sleeping with them]]). [[spoiler:Antony sends a [[OurZombiesAreDifferent horde of shambling zombies]] after the coterie after they refuse to give him Gravenstein's location.]]
* NightmareFetishist: Odette is the only one that's not utterly unnerved whenever Betty starts up her Lasombra shadow antics. Her reaction is quite on the [[InLoveWithYourCarnage opposite end of the spectrum]].
* NoodleIncident:
** The coterie's disastrous first mission in Montreal apparently ended with a bunch of bodies and landed them in hot water with the governing vampires of the Camarilla.
** The circumstances surrounding Amanda's Embrace. There are some indications that she had no idea the changes were going to be ''permanent'', and [[spoiler:her father implies that he though that the one being turned would be him.]]
* OfferedTheCrown: [[spoiler:Gravenstein]] is not actively gunning for the title of Prince, but also doesn't turn down the title [[spoiler:when the coterie present it to him on a silver platter.]]
* OhCrap:
** Happens when the coterie discover that the elder they just woke from torpor was the previous Prince of Tacoma. And then again when [[spoiler:said former Prince crashes an interrogation session they were performing.]]
** Amanda and [[spoiler:her father]] have a simultaneous one after they run into each other in Elysium.
* PragmaticVillainy:
** Gravenstein is considered this as he was a "murderous bastard" but "fair," in contrast to the influential but unscrupulous Ventrue Kendrick.
** The coterie decides to support whichever Prince is least likely to kill them and most likely to reward them. [[spoiler:This turns out to be Gravenstein.]]
* ProperlyParanoid: The player characters have the trunk they're meant to deliver X-rayed. [[spoiler:It contains a staked vampire body, folded up with the legs broken to fit. It's a snack for the torpid Nosferatu they're meant to be waking up aboard the Comet.]]
* RewardedAsATraitorDeserves: Betty suspects this is the reason the Camarilla wants her dead as she was prone to playing both sides in multiple conflicts.
* SwordCane: Betty has one, in an umbrella. Though the one time she does use it on someone, she's so flustered that she foregoes the 'sword' part and just starts beating them over the head with the handle.
* SharpDressedMan: Jamison is one of these despite the fact that he's a Nosferatu, as is Tacoma's Sergei. The two quickly bond over their shared dapperness.
* ShoutOut:
** Amanda loves listening to Music/BillieEilish while the others are making plans.
** Amanda burns a symbol into her hand a la ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk.''
* SilverFox: Amanda's father, Mr Booker. ''Everyone'' who sees him has something to say about how good-looking he is, to Amanda's horror.
* ASimplePlan: The mission to awaken a torpid elder aboard a derelict ship turns into a comedy of errors as multiple factions' plans [[GambitPileup pile up on one another]].
* SkewedPriorities:
** Tom hates being a vampire because he can't keep any new tattoos for more than a night.
** Betty is more worried about her suit being ruined than accomplishing the mission.
* SpoiledSweet: Amanda is a kind and loving girl who just so happens to be a monstrous creature of the night doted on by her rich father (up to and including supplying vessels). Subverted in that her father was also distant and overbearing, so Amanda inherited none of his force of personality or worldliness.
* StringTheory: Betty makes a connection of all the various conspiracy theories and players on a napkin. She calls it her 'Murder Map.' Volkov and [[spoiler:Gravenstein]] [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike recognize it as such]]: "[[PhraseCatcher I love a good murder map!]]"
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Betty is quick to point out that the decision to [[spoiler:set a very hungry Gravenstein on the Anarchs that were closing in on the group]] was a tactical maneuver that had a great amount of thought put into it, and not a spur-of-the-moment act of cowardice.
* SurprisinglyHappyEnding: [[spoiler:The coterie side with Gravenstein and he rewards them with positions of importance in his royal court, foregoing any need for them to oppose him.]]
* {{Touche}}: In Episode 3, Jamison accuses the Ivory Tower of hypocrisy by claiming that they favour some Anarchs while happily letting others be liquefied. Mr Drew then shoots back that the captive (and presumed favourite) Anarch in the other room will probably meet the same fate as his non-favoured fellows if he stays in Odette's tender clutches for any longer. Jamison doesn't have a comeback for that one.
* TruceZone: Elysium is a monthly vampire meetup, held in fashionable surroundings and open to Anarchs, Camarilla, and Sabbat (theoretically). No violence or vampire powers are allowed. This month's Elysium is held in the Tacoma Museum of Glass.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Betty thinks that Fiorenza is a Sheriff back in Seattle. Lore-wise, she's actually close to the Inner Council of the Ventrue and one of the most powerful vampires in the world.
* UriahGambit: Fiorenza is overheard saying that she doesn't expect any of the team to survive their mission but she ''explicitly'' hopes never to see Betty again. Tom takes this to mean she wants her dead, and given how generally unwelcome the Lasombra are in the Camarilla, this might well be true.
* VillainInAWhiteSuit: Mr Drew; unfortunately for him, this fashion choice soon proves to be nothing but trouble. The connotation in ''Vampire'' is of a person who is sufficiently badass to feed and fight without spilling a drop of blood, but Mr Drew is a cowardly functionary and not much else.
* WhamLine: "[[spoiler:And your father walks out,]]" in the middle of Elysium, among half a dozen local vampires.

Both Fiorenza and Mr Drew see it as a SuicideMission (with Fiorenza apparently wanting Betty to be taken out most of all).
* YouOweMe: Favours are the major currency of Kindred society, and saving another vampire's life is one way of earning their boon.
** After the gang bail her out trouble when she's taken by surprise by an Anarch prisoner who escapes his bonds and shoots her twice, Odette offers Tom and Amanda each a boon [[IOweYouMyLife for saving her life]], giving them two of the bullets popped out of her regenerated undead flesh as markers.

[[spoiler:Gravenstein is powerful enough that he doesn't care about repaying the Giovanni, who he hates anyway, but is willing to offer the coterie a debt for awakening him from torpor.]]
** While she doesn't see the act as boon-worthy, Evangeline is very grateful towards Tom after he [[spoiler:pulls her out of the way of a falling chandelier in Elysium]].

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Betty is quick to point out that the decision to [[spoiler:set a very hungry Gravenstein on the Anarchs that were closing in on the group]] was a tactical maneuver that had a great amount of thought put into it, and not a spur-of-the-moment act of cowardice.
* SurprisinglyHappyEnding: [[spoiler:The coterie side with Gravenstein and he rewards them with positions of importance in his royal court, foregoing any need for them to oppose him.]]
* {{Touche}}: In Episode 3, Jamison accuses the Ivory Tower of hypocrisy by claiming that they favour some Anarchs while happily letting others be liquefied. Mr Drew then shoots back that the captive (and presumed favourite) Anarch in the other room will probably meet the same fate as his non-favoured fellows if he stays in Odette's tender clutches for any longer. Jamison doesn't have a comeback for that one.
* TruceZone: Elysium is a monthly vampire meetup, held in fashionable surroundings and open to Anarchs, Camarilla, and Sabbat (theoretically). No violence or vampire powers are allowed. This month's Elysium is held in the Tacoma Museum of Glass.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Betty thinks that Fiorenza is a Sheriff back in Seattle. Lore-wise, she's actually close to the Inner Council of the Ventrue and one of the most powerful vampires in the world.
* UriahGambit: Fiorenza is overheard saying that she doesn't expect any of the team to survive their mission but she ''explicitly'' hopes never to see Betty again. Tom takes this to mean she wants her dead, and given how generally unwelcome the Lasombra are in the Camarilla, this might well be true.
* VillainInAWhiteSuit: Mr Drew; unfortunately for him, this fashion choice soon proves to be nothing but trouble. The connotation in ''Vampire'' is of a person who is sufficiently badass to feed and fight without spilling a drop of blood, but Mr Drew is a cowardly functionary and not much else.
* WhamLine: "[[spoiler:And your father walks out,]]" in the middle of Elysium, among half a dozen local vampires.
* WhatHaveIBecome: PlayedForLaughs. Amanda makes for a pretty mousey vampire, nice, well-meaning, and deeply naïve; Tom is a tattoo artist who can't get any new tattoos, a junk food junkie who can't taste or hold down solid food anymore, and a no-bullshit tough guy thrust into a society of pretentious social backstabbers.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Implied. There are many indications that the Montreal Job went badly, and the very next task the coterie is asked to undertake is waking a torporous (and very hungry) Elder. Both Fiorenza and Mr Drew see it as a SuicideMission (with Fiorenza apparently wanting Betty to be taken out most of all).
* YouOweMe: Favours are the major currency of Kindred society, and saving another vampire's life is one way of earning their boon.
** After the gang bail her out trouble when she's taken by surprise by an Anarch prisoner who escapes his bonds and shoots her twice, Odette offers Tom and Amanda each a boon [[IOweYouMyLife for saving her life]], giving them two of the bullets popped out of her regenerated undead flesh as markers.
** The Giovanni crime/vampire family did a number of favours to Prince Gravenstein before he disappeared, and want to find him so that they can collect. After collecting Amanda from the hospital his family owns and saving the remaining vampires at Elysium, Antony explicitly notes that he didn't do so out of kindness, but to put her in his debt. [[spoiler:Gravenstein is powerful enough that he doesn't care about repaying the Giovanni, who he hates anyway, but is willing to offer the coterie a debt for awakening him from torpor.]]
** While she doesn't see the act as boon-worthy, Evangeline is very grateful towards Tom after he [[spoiler:pulls her out of the way of a falling chandelier in Elysium]]. [[spoiler:Gravenstein]] uses the latter to his advantage in the final episode [[spoiler:by making Tom a Harpy, with the explicit instruction to get close to her and keep her in line.]]
** The attack on Elysium seems to be the result of a complicated web of favours, only the last of which was vampire crime boss Kremenko sending his goons to attack the glass museum. It's pointed out that the use of guns and vampires who could easily be tied back to him made the whole attack transparently foolish, and only the desperation to clear his debt could have made Kremenko order it. [[spoiler:The implication is that Kendrick arranged the attack himself, knowing his SuperToughness would allow him to easily weather the falling glass and bullets and allow him to play the hero as part of his bid for the throne.]]

** The attack on Elysium seems to be the result of a complicated web of favours, only the last of which was vampire crime boss Kremenko sending his goons to attack the glass museum. It's pointed out that the use of guns and vampires who could easily be tied back to him made the whole attack transparently foolish, and only the desperation to clear his debt could have made Kremenko order it. [[spoiler:The implication is that Kendrick arranged the attack himself, knowing his SuperToughness would allow him to easily weather the falling glass and bullets and allow him to play the hero as part of his bid for the throne.]]
