| 40 | * AbusiveParents: Alistair frequently told a young Fitz that he was always stupid and worthless. If the Framework is anything to go by, Alistair's verbal abuse would have eventually evolved into physical abuse, assuming it hadn't already. |
| 41 | * TheAlcoholic: According to Holden Radcliffe, Alistair is a pathetic drunk. |
| 42 | * BerserkButton: Mentioning him is a huge one for Fitz. To the point that he's never talked to anyone about Alistair except Simmons, and she knows well enough to leave the subject alone. |
| 43 | * DisappearedDad: Alistair abandoned his son and his mother when he was ten years old. |
| 44 | * TheGhost: The real Alistair Fitz never even appears in person. |
| 45 | * HateSink: Was emotionally abusive toward Fitz before he abandoned him as a child. Seems to be an InUniverse HateSink as well; Simmons and Mack both despise Alistair without even meeting him, simply based on how he treated his own son. |
| 46 | * {{Jerkass}}: Based on his virtual reality counterpart in the Framework, and what Simmons tells Mack, Alistair was a chauvinist and a jerk who constantly belittled Leopold. |
| 47 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: The real Alistair never even makes a cameo appearance, but his actions lead to Fitz's lingering resentment and the creation of his alternate reality counterpart in the Framework. |

| 69 | A human who gets entangled in the Eternals' exploits due to his relationship with Sersi. |
| 70 | ---- |
| 71 | * AdaptationalNationality: In the comics, while being ''descended'' from Briton knights, he was very much an American. In the film, he's portrayed by Kit Harington with his London accent fully intact. |
| 72 | * AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, he's the superhero Black Knight with a magical cursed sword. In ''Eternals'', he's Sersi's coworker and boyfriend who becomes acquainted with her race. [[spoiler:He doesn't even tag along with the Eternals, staying in London while they go on their actual quest... but in TheStinger, he opens up the chest containing the cursed Ebony Blade and psychs himself up to grab it, presumably in desperation at Sersi's abduction, but is interrupted by a mysterious voice (ComicBook/{{Blade}}) before he actually touches it.]] |
| 73 | * ArbitrarySkepticism: Played with. Despite Sprite apparently having dropped many hints about the Eternals and Deviants, and living in a world where superheroes are famous, he initially doesn't believe her and instead suspects Sersi is a wizard like Doctor Strange. But once a real Deviant actually shows up, he immediately understands Sprite was telling the truth. |
| 74 | * BlackSwordsAreBetter: [[spoiler:TheStinger of ''Eternals'' has Dane slowly accepting his family's heirloom: a magical black sword known as the Ebony Blade.]] |
| 75 | * CastingGag: Kit Harington portrayed Jon Snow, a warrior in a medieval setting in ''Series/GameOfThrones'', which also starred Creator/RichardMadden (Ikaris) as Robb Stark, Jon's beloved half-brother. The only scene where they physically meet is dripping with subtext due to this. |
| 76 | ** Said gag only is expanded upon with [[spoiler:the Ebony Blade, since it means Kit is once again playing a medieval warrior with a special sword.]] |
| 77 | * ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: He's never referred to as Black Knight in the ''Eternals'' film [[spoiler:as he has yet to claim the Ebony Blade, which it seems he's about to do at TheStinger.]] |
| 78 | * CoolSword: [[spoiler:The Ebony Blade is a black sword imbued with supernatural properties.]] |
| 79 | * DarkIsNotEvil: [[spoiler:The Ebony Blade is a dark, seemingly cursed sword branded with a morbid Latin motto, but Dane is a kindhearted NiceGuy who only even considers taking up the sword to help his beloved girlfriend.]] |
| 80 | * TheMissusAndTheEx: He's the "missus". Ikaris and Sersi were married for more than a thousand years, but he abandoned her, and she started dating Dane in the present day. After Ikaris helps dispatch a Deviant in London, Dane quickly realizes that Ikaris is Sersi's ex. |
| 81 | -->'''Dane:''' I'm guessing that was the pilot. |
| 82 | * NiceGuy: Dane is a friendly, easygoing guy who is perfectly understanding of the complicated history that comes out when Sersi is exposed as an Eternal. |
| 83 | * UnderstandingBoyfriend: Once Sersi comes clean about being an immortal superheroine, he takes it more or less in stride, and at the end of the day, they resume their relationship. It's implied that he's understanding in part because of his family history since TheStinger implies a legacy of superpowers. |
| 84 | * WhatTheHellHero: In the film, he asks Sersi why the Eternals never interfered [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar against Thanos]] or anywhen else during human history. |

| 99 | * JerkassHasAPoint: As needlessly harsh as she is toward Steven, she is justified in being annoyed with his chronic tardiness. This is likely a somewhat DownplayedTrope, depending on how much she knows about Steven's [[TheMentallyDisturbed condition]]. |
| 100 | * MaliciousMisnaming: She calls Steven "Stevie" even after he corrects her. |

| 140 | A street performer. |
| 141 | ---- |
| 142 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: In the comics, Crawley has a close relationship with Moon Knight, due to working for him as an informant. In the MCU, the most they interact is where Steven occasionally speaks to him about his personal life after work, though it's implied Marc has encountered him offscreen due to mentioning him by name in Episode 5. |
| 143 | * AdaptationalNationality: In the comics, Bertrand Crawley is a homeless New Yorker who only acts like a British aristocrat. Here, he's an actual Brit living in London. |
| 144 | * AdaptationalWealth: While being a street performer is hardly a well-paying job, Crawley is certainly doing far better than in the comics, where he was completely homeless, and relied on informing on the criminals of New York for Moon Knight to get work. |
| 145 | * AllThereInTheScript: His name is initially never stated on screen, with only the credits and [[https://twitter.com/jerslater/status/1509225611381805059 Jeremy Slater himself]] confirming that he is the same Crawley from the comics. His name is finally said in episode 5, when Marc, in an attempt to convince himself that the asylum is real, says that once he goes through the door, he'll probably hear Crawley saying bingo. |
| 146 | * NobodyHereButUsStatues: Even as Steven tries to converse with the man, Crawley doesn't break character and remains motionless. The only time he does so is when Steven abruptly hugs him, turning his head and eyes slightly to glance at him. |
| 147 | * TheQuietOne: As part of his statue routine, Crawley does not speak, even as Steven carries on entire one-sided conversations with him and bounces ideas off of him, [[SelfDeprecation which he then credits to Crawley rather than himself]]. [[spoiler:The only time he does speak is during the fourth episode, where he is briefly seen calling out bingo numbers in the lounge of what is shown to be a psychiatric hospital in which Marc and Steven are incarcerated; it acts as {{Foreshadowing}} that this is is not actually reality, but a MindPrison, since although Steven presumably has, we never hear Crawley's voice prior to this.]] |

| 197 | ->''"Sokovia's had a rough history. It's nowhere special, but it's on the way to everywhere special."'' |
| 198 | -->-- '''Maria Hill''', ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' |
| 199 | |
| 200 | A small, landlocked country in Central and Southeastern Europe. Plagued by civil unrest, revolving door revolutions, and corruption for so many decades that it's considered a failed state. And that was ''before'' Ultron showed up. |
| 201 | ---- |
| 202 | * BookEnds: The movie ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' begins with a battle in Sokovia, with some robots being sent to the city to protect the civilians. At the end of the film, there is a new battle in Sokovia, and another army of robots is sent into the city to attack the civilians. |
| 203 | * CanonImmigrant: The country was created specifically for the MCU as the home country of Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch. Sokovia later appeared in the comics as a former Soviet Bloc dictatorship led by General Kamil Novoty. |
| 204 | * CrapsackWorld: Let's just say that Sokovia isn't the nicest place to live in, especially after Ultron leveled Novi Grad and killed thousands of people there. |
| 205 | * ColonyDrop: Ultron's plan is to transform the entire city into a FloatingContinent powered by a vibranium reactor, raise it up into orbit and drop it on the Earth to create an extinction-level event. |
| 206 | * EarlyBirdCameo: First prominently introduced in ''Avengers: Age of Ultron'', it ''technically'' first appeared in the post-credits scene to ''Captain America: The Winter Soldier'', though this only showed the inside of the HYDRA base there, to introduce the Maximoff twins. |
| 207 | * {{Expy}}: Loosely of Serbia or other breakaway states in the Balkans, but with a mishmash of traits so it isn't one specific country - see "Ruritania" below. As it relates to Marvel continuities, "Sokovia" was actually invented for 2015's ''Avengers: Age of Ultron'' movie, and didn't exist in the comics before (though it has subsequently been mentioned). Within the MCU itself, it seems to be a loose expy of Transia - a similar Ruritania country, home of the Maximoff twins. |
| 208 | * FloatingContinent / OminousFloatingCastle: Ultron uses a vibranium anti-gravity device to lift the city into the sky, planning to drop it once he has sent it high enough to instigate an extinction-level event. The film's final act takes place in the floating city. |
| 209 | * KilledOffScreen: In ''Series/TheFalconAndTheWinterSoldier'', Zemo mentions that the entire country (or what was left of it after its capital city was destroyed) was partitioned and absorbed by its neighbors. |
| 210 | * RevolvingDoorRevolution: The tie-in ''Prelude to Age of Ultron'' comics openly state that there's new rebellions on a ''monthly'' basis in Sokovia. There isn't a really long "civil war" in the country, it's an outright "failed state" (as Zemo openly admits). Public order has collapsed and one fragile government after another keeps getting toppled, facing another pop-up rebellion, getting overthrown by some other junta, etc. They're not fighting ''for'' anything anymore. And it's been this way since at least the mid-1990s. And even before that it was a contested border region. |
| 211 | * {{Ruritania}}: Introduced in ''Avengers: Age of Ultron'' as a tiny fictional Balkan nation with HYDRA operations, and home to Pietro and Wanda Maximoff. It's loosely based on Serbia or its other [[BalkanizeMe breakaway republics]], but if you pay close attention it has a mishmash of a few other characteristics added in that don't correspond to any one real-life country. The architecture is a toned-down mix of East European-style facades and cement buildings that don't link it to any specific style (perhaps justified in that their civil wars have been going on so long that there's been no significantly new construction since the Cold War ended, hence all the generic Brutalist architecture that could be found anywhere behind the Iron Curtain). |
| 212 | ** The in-universe maps are intentionally vague and contradictory: in ''Age of Ultron'' Sokovia seemed to be between the borders of Czechia, Slovakia, and Hungary, but then in ''Civil War'', it seemed to be flat out on the other side of ''Romania'' and near the Black Sea. Other maps intentionally use large, vague icons that might put it near Slovenia for all we know (near Italy and Austria). They're keeping their options open. |
| 213 | ** It seems primarily based off Serbia, or perhaps the break-off territory equivalent of Kosovo (but populated by ethnic Serbians), as the name seems to be a cross between "Kosovo" and "Serbia". All the street signs are in Serbian Cyrillic - and the only Balkan countries that use Cyrillic are Serbia, Bosnia, Bulgaria, and North Macedonia (Croatia, Hungary, and Albania do not - more importantly, Czechia and Slovakia, on the north side of Hungary, don't use this alpahbet either). Its flag◊ is also very similar to Serbia's, being a red-white-blue tricolor (only vertical, like the French or Romania flag) with an eagle at the center. Its capital is called Novi Grad, which in real life is the name of a suburb of Serbia's capital, Belgrade. |
| 214 | ** Also in ''Civil War'', it's noted that Zemo comes from Sokovia, where he was a colonel in the "EKO Scorpion black ops unit", which operated during an unknown conflict in Sokovia and apparently behaved quite brutally. Scorpion was also the name of a Serb black ops unit during the Yugoslav Wars, involved in war crimes in Bosnia. |
| 215 | ** Sokovia was explicitly shown to have a Christian church at the center of its capital city, so it isn't a majority-Muslim nation like Bosnia. Apparently also an East Orthodox church, so it's not like Croatia either (which is Catholic). |
| 216 | ** At another point in ''Civil War'', however, it's stated that a common dish in Sokovia is chicken paprikash... which is a ''Hungarian'' dish, though it is also popular in the northern parts of Serbia that border Hungary such as Vojvodina (areas with Hungarian minorities). This wasn't a one-off reference either: a deleted scene from ''Spider-man: Homecoming'' had Peter's high school holding a Sokovian Relief Lunch with an all-you-can-eat paprikash buffet. |
| 217 | ** Then came ''Series/WandaVision'', with several prominent flashbacks to Sokovia, and much more prominent dialogue in "Sokovian". Elizabeth Olsen stated in interviews that [[WhatTheHellIsThatAccent Sokovian is supposed to be accented like ''Slovakian'']] - which opens up a whole bunch of other issues, because Slovakia isn't in "the Balkans", is on the north side of Hungary from Serbia, and is actually Catholic and uses the Latin alphabet. Slovakia also doesn't have the unstable political history of a Balkan state (after the Cold War ended it peacefully separated from Czechia, joined the EU, and is doing reasonably well). |
| 218 | *** Googling around, fans who speak Slovak have noted that it has the ''sounds'' of Slovakian, and some generically almost recognizable words, but isn't actually Slovak. It appears to be some sort of Proto-Slavic dialect that the MCU producers put together, which could come from across Eastern Europe (sort of like how Wakandans speak a ''dialect'' of the real-life language Xhosa, with the sounds of Xhosa, but it isn't quite like real Xhosa). |
| 219 | ** The etymology of the names in Sokovia don't help either - Maximoff is Russian a derived, but Pietro is the ''Italian'' version of the name, while Wanda is Polish-derived. Helmut is German, but Zemo's last name isn't as readily identifiable - even though he's apparently a high ranking nobleman. |
| 220 | * UrbanRuins: Happens during the climax of ''Age of Ultron'' when Ultron's army of drones invade the city and turn it into a floating meteor. |

He leaves, and the citizens just get back to whatever they were doing. Moments later, Pietro returns with an assault rifle and starts shooting the ceiling to be sure everyone's paying attention and gets moving. |
| 230 | ** Verges on ConditionedToAcceptHorror: in the flashbacks to the Maximoffs' childhood, we see that gunfire between rival factions is the streets is such an everyday occurrence that their parents just shrug and close their curtains. |
| 231 | * CitywideEvacuation: During the climax of ''Age of Ultron'', the heroes try to evacuate the entire population of Sokovia. However, they're unable to get all the inhabitants out before Ultron lifts the city into the sky to become a makeshift meteor. Fortunately, Nick Fury and the new S.H.I.E.L.D. arrive with the Helicarrier to help evacuate the rest of the civilians before the city is destroyed. |
| 232 | * MassHypnosis: Before the final battle, Wanda uses her mind powers to alert the denizens of Sokovia of the rampage that Ultron is about to unleash. This triggers quite a lot of them to book it. |
| 233 | * OccupiersOutOfOurCountry: This is the attitude the people of Sokovia have toward the Avengers. It's boosted by HYDRA propaganda. |
| 234 | * TeeteringOnTheEdge: The launching of Sokovia leaves several cars precariously dangling over the edge of broken roads. Captain America specifically tries to stop one red convertible, visibly straining to pull it to safety, only to lose his grip when the bumper snaps off sending the car and driver plunging thousands of feet towards the ground. Luckily, Thor is able to catch the car and fly it and its occupant back to solid ground. |

She later does her best to protect Costel during the Battle of Sokovia and is terrified when they're briefly separated. |

Like Beth, Zrinka is a young woman living in the city where the movie's climax will take place, who is introduced early on in the film as a potential LoveInterest for one of the Avengers (Steve Rogers for Beth, Pietro Maximoff for Zrinka), and is given more attention than the other civilians in danger during the final battle. Coincidently, both of them have their introduction scene in which they interact with one of the Avengers members cut for the final product (although Zrinka still makes a brief appearance at the beginning of her film). |

| 312 | ---- |
| 313 | * AdaptationalHeroism: Helmut Zemo's father in the comics was Baron Heinrich Zemo, a Nazi supervillain who wanted to TakeOverTheWorld. In the MCU, even though Zemo's father never appeared directly, nothing implies that he was anything more than a relatively minor Sokovian noble. |
| 314 | * BlueBlood: Was a Baron. |
| 315 | * DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: He seems to have had a good relationship with his son, his daughter-in-law and his grandson, and his death causes much grief to Helmut. |
| 316 | * DecompositeCharacter: He still has the role of being Helmut's father whose death was partly caused by some members of the Avengers, making his son want to avenge him, but his role as the enemy of Captain America during World War II who is responsible for him being frozen in the Arctic and for the apparent death of Bucky Barnes has been given to Red Skull. |
| 317 | * DemotedToExtra: [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]]. In the comics, Helmut Zemo's father Heinrich is a major supervillain and one of the archenemies of Captain America who notably caused his freezing in the Arctic Ocean and Bucky Barnes' "death". In the MCU, Zemo's father doesn't even appear in-person and is only mentioned once in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar''. |
| 318 | * TheGhost: He never appears on screen, but he is mentioned by his son. |
