3[[folder: ''Horrible'' Males, District 1 - 6]]
4
5!!Rome Gnaeus:
6
7* AdaptationalVillainy: Maybe a little annoying, but certainly not villainous in the original.
8%% * AffablyEvil: So much that he went for the "fun and friendly" angle during his interviews.
9* AntiVillain: He spends more of his time boasting and flirting than doing anything actively malevolent, and the only time he succeeds in killing somebody in the core storyline, it’s by indirect means. Despite this, he still definitely opposes the protagonists.
10%% * BetaCouple: with Ania, [[spoiler: albiet unrequited.]]
11%% * BigBad: Of the Horrible career pack, [[spoiler: until [[{{DragonAscendant}} Ania]] takes over.]]
12* BoisterousBruiser: Decides he just has to take on a giant lizard mutt by himself for the fun of it.
13* BrainsAndBrawn: The brawn to Ania's brains.
14* TheCasanova: Apparently dates dozens of girls at once.
15%% * CurbStompBattle: Against [[spoiler: Gries]] in the sixth What If.
16* DirtyBusiness: How he seems to view killing females and the defenceless. He doesn't like it much, but feels he has to do it anyway.
17* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler:Gets stabbed in the back by his ally, Ania.]]
18%% * EvilDuo: With Ania; she being the Superego, he being the Id.
19* TheFightingNarcissist: Definitely fighting, and his introductory chapter was so darn narcissistic the author had difficulty writing it.
20* LargeHam: "I, the great and powerful Rome!"
21* LastKiss: Kisses [[spoiler:Ania as she dies in the sixth What If. Since he dies not long afterwards, this would make it his last kiss as well. Slightly subverted in that it's more creepy and manipulative than romantic.]]
22%% * LoveHurts: Like a sword through the back. [[spoiler:Literally.]]
23* LoveMartyr: Never stops hoping Ania will reciprocate his feelings, even when it's incredibly obvious she hates his guts.
24%% * LaughablyEvil: Definitely an antagonist, but his narcissism makes him humorous.
25* ManipulativeBastard: [[spoiler:Surprisingly, he has a moment of this in the sixth What If when he tells Ania he'd feel a lot less guilty about killing her if she returned his affections, then exploits her desire to repay him so that she lets him kiss her.]]
26%% * MutualKill: [[spoiler:With Igris in the sixth What If.]]
27%% * NiceGuy: For a career.
28* NoKillLikeOverkill: [[spoiler:Amer tears his neck to absolute shreds in the first What If.]]
29* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Does absolutely nothing – until he [[spoiler: mortally wounds Fronce.]]
30* PetTheDog: Quite a few: he [[{{Taking the Bullet}} Took a Bullet]] for Ania on their first meeting, has a distaste for harming females and the defenceless (although he does it anyway) and was polite enough to [[spoiler: carry Gries' body to where the hovercraft could get it]] in the sixth What If.
31%% * RedOniBlueOni: Red Oni to Ania.
32* TakingTheBullet: Shielded Ania from a hit on her first day in the Career training centre, for which she wants to repay him.
33* WTHCostumingDepartment: In-universe. Rome didn't think the fake eyelashes went too well with his 'manly' angle.
34%% * WouldHitAGirl: Though, to his credit, he doesn't like it much.
35
36!!Vash Zerlan:
37
38* AccidentalMurder: Possibly. The author has [[ShrugOfGod never confirmed]] if he intended to [[spoiler:shoot Dardana at the bloodbath]] or was innocently testing out his crossbow.
39* AdaptationalVillainy: More neutral in ''Hetalia''.
40* BewareTheQuietOnes: Doesn't do much talking, but fine with killing.
41* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Dies suddenly and unceremoniously from [[spoiler:an explosion in the early stages of the Games]].
42* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler:Shoots his own district partner, Dardana, in the head.]]
43* EvilOrphan: Hasn't had a morally-nurturing life after escaping the orphanage.
44* FreudianExcuse: Lived a miserable childhood on the streets and in orphanages before turning to the Career training program as his only option.
45* LackOfEmpathy: Has absolutely no sympathy for any of his competition, killing [[spoiler:Dardana and Meghna]] without a second thought.
46* TheStoic: Devoid of emotion other than vague annoyance.
47* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: In a way. The version of Switzerland in ‘’Horrible,’’ Switz, [[spoiler:lasts nearly to the end of the Games,]] but Vash [[spoiler: dies sooner and far more unceremoniously.]]
48* TriggerHappy: Is a little too eager to let loose his arrows.
49
50!!Spain Carriedo:
51
52%% * AccidentalMurder:
53%% ** Almost on the receiving end of this trope.
54%% ** [[spoiler:He certainly isn't the kind that would kill Aztinca, but...]]
55%% * AlwaysSaveTheGirl: As a part of his atonement.
56* TheAtoner: He does everything he can to make up for [[spoiler: killing [[{{Jerkass Victim}} Atzinca]].]]
57%% * BewareTheNiceOnes: Very nice... But with a less than spotless story.
58%% * BigBrotherInstinct: To Lovi.
59%% * BreakTheCutie: Twice: 1) when [[spoiler:he saw his sister die on national television]] and 2) when [[spoiler:he killed Atzinca]].
60* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Can be a goofball, but can also kick butt if it comes down to it.
61* CynicismCatalyst: Between [[spoiler:his sister's death two years previously, an [[AccidentalMurder accidental]] [[SympatheticMurderBackstory murder]] to his name, and the brief guilt of letting Perdita die]], he certainly has a lot of motivation for trying to protect Lovi.
62%% * DeadpanSnarker: He has his small moments with Lovi.
63%% * DeclarationOfProtection: Towards Lovi.
64* TheFakeCutie: What Lovi starts suspecting him to be. At first, it's used in a comedic light when Spain jokes about it to her...then it's used in a horrifying deconstruction when [[spoiler:Lovi almost murders him for it]].
65* HeroicBSOD: He starts slipping a bit when he sees that the arena to this year's Game is [[spoiler:just like the one that Maria died in]].
66* HonorBeforeReason: He chooses to save Lovi [[spoiler: and sacrifices their supplies to Sadik.]]
67* ILetGwenStacyDie: He has shades of this when he remembers how he wasn't able to save [[spoiler:Perdita]].
68* NiceGuy: One of the least selfish characters in the series.
69* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Wow, Spain, nice job [[spoiler: letting it slip that you strangled a chick…]] especially when you're playing the CHILDMURDER GAMES.
70%% * NonActionGuy: In the core series, at least.
71%% * OnlySaneMan: Compared to the fitful Lovi.
72* ThePollyanna: Always tries his best to cheer Lovi up.
73%% * ShipTease: Oh so much with Lovi.
74%% * SlashedThroat: [[spoiler: Although he's already KO-ed with brain damage, he dies this way courtesy of Ania.]]
75* SympatheticMurderBackstory: Spain is revealed to [[spoiler:have killed one person]] before the Games: a young woman who mocked his sister's untimely death.
76* RedOniBlueOni: The calming Blue Oni to Lovi's more impulsive Red Oni.
77* {{Retirony}}: Spain could've missed the Reaping- if only his birthday came four days earlier…
78%% * TapOnTheHead: Horrifyingly averted. Justified, because [[spoiler: it's done with a hammer.]]
79%% * UnskilledButStrong: He scored a 9 but isn't trained like a Career.
80%% * VitriolicBestBuds: Has shades of this with Lovi.
81
82!!Wiremu Sachy:
83
84* AttemptedRape: Tried to rape [[spoiler:Finni]]. Thank ''goodness'' [[spoiler:Sve got there first]].
85%% * TheBrute: In ''Horrible'''s Career group.
86%% * {{For the Evulz}}: [[spoiler:What he almost does to Finni.]]
87%% * {{Jerkass}}: Given no excuses.
88%% * {{Kick the Dog}}: [[spoiler:What he almost does to Finni.]]
89%% * NeckSnap: He kills [[spoiler:Perdita]] this way.
90* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: He's one of the least, if not the least, sympathetic Careers because of he tried to rape [[spoiler:Finni]].
91%% * SlashedThroat: [[spoiler:Dies this way.]]
92%% * WouldHitAGirl: Or worse.
93%% * WouldHurtAChild: Poor, poor [[spoiler:Perdita]].
94
95!!Igris Kirkland:
96
97%% * AloofBigBrother: To Shiran.
98* AntiHero: A wannabe of it; Igris keeps on saying that he's okay with killing people in order to get out of the Games alive, but when it comes down to it, [[spoiler: he doesn't actually kill and never slides beyond a DisneyAntiHero at worst.]]
99%% * BigOlEyebrows: Both Fronce and Amer love to rib him about it. And his little brother, Shiran, also has them.
100* ChekhovsHobby: His skill with embroidery comes in handy when he has to knit up Fronce's wounds.
101%% * CynicismCatalyst: [[spoiler: His death]] serves as this for [[spoiler: Amer.]]
102%% * DeadpanSnarker: This is what makes about the majority of his banter with Amer and Fronce enjoyable in a CrapsackWorld.
103* DefrostingIceKing: At first glance, he seems like a callous jerk- but then you see him soften up like a marshmallow-pillow.
104* DeathByAdaptation: He doesn't fare too well in the What Ifs.
105* FirstPersonSmartAss: As a result of him being a DeadpanSnarker, his narrative is also snarky.
106* GeniusBruiser: He's very clever and smart, AND he's strong enough to [[spoiler: subdue the Careers in battle.]]
107* HonorBeforeReason: [[{{Blatant Lies}} Despite what he says about how Anti Hero he is]], he never abandons Fronce even though it would've been the more pragmatic course of action. Heck, he doesn't even [[spoiler: kill ANIA.]]
108%% * JadeColoredGlasses: What he starts wearing during the Games- although it doesn't stop him from putting HonorBeforeReason.
109%% * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: One of his defining characteristics. We even sympathize with him when he learn of his reason for wanting to [[spoiler: abandon China to die alone.]]
110%% * LethalChef: He once brought in some home-baked cookies to share with everyone...and guess how that turned out?
111* LonelyRichKid: It makes it even more sad when Fronce, [[spoiler: his first and only friend, dies]]. Even Shiran knows of that and thanks Amer for being Igris's friend.
112* MessyHair: Perpetually messy, Games or otherwise.
113%% * MutualKill: [[spoiler: with Ania in the first What If.]]
114* NotSoAboveItAll: It's noted that even though he tried to act like a gentleman, he got too annoyed by Caesar to fully keep his composure during the interviews. Amusingly, the same fate was also shared with his fellow {{Tsundere}}, Lovi.
115* OnlyFriend: Due to his wealth and general {{Jerkass}} attitude, his only friend is [[{{VitriolicBestBuds}} Fronce]] and later [[spoiler: Amer]].
116* SiblingYinYang: He is cynial and aloof, while Shiran is optimistic and friendly.
117* SourOutsideSadInside: Always gratingly sarcastic, but deep down just terribly lonely and insecure.
118* SkewedPriorities: Really, Igris? You really had to move out of your hiding place to make TEA in the CHILDMURDER GAMES?!
119%% * StepfordSnarker
120* TechnicalPacifist: He has no qualms with combat; he just doesn't want to kill his defeated opponents.
121* {{Tsundere}}: A platonic version to Fronce. Even though Igris tries to make himself look all grouch and stoic, his true feelings are shown in his narrative.
122* WouldHitAGirl: Has no qualms with attacking the fierce Ania in self-defense.
123%% * VitriolicBestBuds: with Fronce.
124
125!!Fronce Foybon:
126
127* AccidentalMurder: Neglects to tell his allies that [[spoiler:his berry sauce is poisonous]] when consumed in large amounts. He is duly horrified when [[spoiler:China]] eats too much one night and dies.
128* ArmorPiercingQuestion: When he asks Igris if he would leave him behind to die like he did [[spoiler: China]]. Although Igris doesn’t let Fronce know it got to him, he clearly thinks it over before [[spoiler: his later NoOneGetsLeftBehind moment.)]]
129* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Igris expresses horror and grief when Fronce is [[spoiler: severely wounded and eventually dies.]]
130%% * BandofBrothers: With Igris and [[spoiler:Amer]].
131* ChekhovsHobby: He's a good cook. This comes in handy during the Hunger Games.
132* ChivalrousPervert: An unashamed flirt, but a decent human being nonetheless.
133%% * CynicismCatalyst: [[spoiler:His death]] serves as this for [[spoiler:Amer]].
134%% * FireForgedFriends: With Igris and [[spoiler:Amer]].
135* HollywoodHealing: Zigzagged. He initially [[spoiler: survives a sword through the stomach]] thanks to only stitches and disinfectant, but [[spoiler: dies later]] – though not of this injury, but [[spoiler: infection from an unnoticed wound on his neck.]]
136* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: Unsuccessfully begs [[spoiler: Igris to leave him behind after he’s been severely wounded and infected.]]
137%% * TheLoad: To Igris and [[spoiler:Amer, after he's been wounded]].
138%% * LongHairedPrettyBoy: In a plot-relevant way, no less.
139* MeaningfulEcho: After Igris abandons [[spoiler: China to die alone]], Fronce indignantly asks him if he would leave him behind in a similar situation. Igris responds that he would instead stick around to taunt him. Much later, after [[spoiler: Fronce has been gravely injured and knocked out,]] he wakes up to discover [[spoiler: Igris is carrying him on his back.]] The first words out of his mouth? [[spoiler:"So you didn't leave me behind after all."]]
140* MortalWoundReveal: The [[spoiler:infected cut behind his long hair]].
141%% * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: After [[spoiler:accidentally killing China]].
142* NonActionGuy: Apart from a swordfight with Igris in the training center. Justified, as he is never given a weapon, and cannot fight with his bare hands.
143* NoOneGetsLeftBehind: Igris [[spoiler:refuses to leave him to die, even when he’s badly injured.]]
144%% * OnlyFriend: To Igris, before [[spoiler:Amer]] enters the picture.
145* PrinceCharmingWannabe: Treats China like a ProperLady, but she remains unimpressed.
146* ReplacementGoldfish: He and Igris could be seen as [[spoiler:Amer’s]] replacement goldfish for [[spoiler:Eston and Raivis.]]
147%% * SparedByAdaptation: In the sixth What If.
148* SupremeChef: That sauce must have tasted ''amazing''...
149* TakingTheBullet: [[spoiler:Jumps in front of Rome’s sword to protect a blind, injured and unarmed Lovi in the first What If.]]
150%% * TwoGuysAndAGirl: With Igris and China.
151* VitriolicBestBuds: Beneath all the petty squabbling, he and Igris really do love each other.

155[[folder: ''Horrible'' Males, District 7 - 12]]
156
157!!Eston von Bock:
158
159%% * BigBrotherInstinct: Towards Raivis.
160%% * CynicismCatalyst: [[spoiler:His death]] serves as this for [[spoiler:Amer]].
161%% * DistressedDude: Thankfully Amer's ready to protect him.
162%% * FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:In the third What If.]]
163%% * FireForgedFriends: With Amer and Raivis, especially during the third What If.
164* GadgeteerGenius: He says in his intro chapter that he’s very skilled with all sorts of technology, and that he could easily start a fire with a battery and some wire. In the third What If, it’s revealed that his dream is to become talented enough to work in District 3.
165%% * HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Allows Amer to kill him so that Raivis can win]] in the third What If.
166* HesitantSacrifice: In a truly heartbreaking scene, [[spoiler:he goes off by himself and cries after a coin toss decides he must die for Raivis.]] This doesn’t stop him from eventually [[spoiler:making the HeroicSacrifice.]]
167%% * NonActionGuy: Rather scrawny, actually.
168* OnlySaneMan: Compared to the paranoid, the brain-damaged bully, and the kid with the hero complex...
169* ReplacementGoldfish: Raivis’ new ‘brother’ after losing [[spoiler: Toris]] two years previously.
170* SacrificialLion: His death definitely makes a difference for Amer... and Vahn.
171* ShootTheDog: [[spoiler:Amer kills him in the third What If so that Raivis can be the Victor.]]
172%% * SlashedThroat: Dies this way [[spoiler:in the third What If]].
173%% * TheSmartGuy: In his alliance with Amer and Raivis.
174* SomeoneHasToDie: In the third What If, he and his allies Raivis and Amer [[spoiler: are the final three tributes, but only one of them is allowed to survive. Amer volunteers to kill one of them and then himself. Eston loses a coin toss and dies in place of Raivis.]]
175* TheVonTropeFamily: Courtesy of his Hetalian name.
176
177!!Sadik Ottoman:
178
179%% * CoolMask: Wears one 24/7.
180* HonorBeforeReason: intended to go as far as he could through the Games without killing to entertain the Capitol. His resolve caved in pretty quickly when hunger got the best of him, [[spoiler: although he still couldn’t bring himself to kill Lovi.]]
181* EarlyBirdCameo: He features in the ''Brutal'' epilogue before becoming a more important character in ''Horrible.''
182* LastEpisodeNewCharacter: Appears in the ''Brutal'' epilogue.
183%% * MalevolentMaskedMan: To Spain and Lovi, when he holds the latter hostage in exchange for supplies. [[spoiler: He’s not intending to kill her, though.]]
184* NeverBringAKnifeToAFistfight: Sadik commences his and Amer's fist fight by pulling a knife, and promptly loses it. [[spoiler: Guess who wins.]] Sort of zigzagged, though, since he wasn't trying to play dirty by taking out the knife, just warning Amer not to mess with him.
185%% * TheQuietOne: Unless he's around [[SitcomArchNemesis Gries]].
186%% * SadisticChoice: Forces Spain to choose between Lovi's left and their alliance's vital supplies.
187* ShootHimHeHasAWallet: Zigzagged. Sadik [[spoiler:is killed]] for pulling out a knife, averting this trope, but he was doing so to dissuade, not harm, his attacker.
188* SitcomArchNemesis: With Gries. Unlike most of the rivalries in the series, it isn’t too serious and doesn’t culminate in violence in the arena.
189* SlashedThroat: [[spoiler:Dies when Amer cuts his throat with broken glass.]]
190* TheStoic: Doesn't do much overreacting.
191
192!!Vahn Larus:
193
194* AccentAdaptation: Sort of. Since most citizens of Panem probably don't know what on earth Russia is, his Russian accent is interpreted by his adoptive parents as a speech impediment and by the doctor as a rare disorder.
195* AssholeVictim: True, [[spoiler:Amer]] [[{{Jumping Off the Slippery Slope}} Jumps Off the Slippery Slope]] when he kills him, but after everything he's just done to [[spoiler:Eston and Raivis]], it's easy to sympathize with the murderer.
196* BadBoss: Keeps his 'allies', Eston and Raivis, in line with threats and violence.
197* BreakTheBadass: [[spoiler:His crying at his death scene shows the reader just how dangerous and merciless Amer has become.]]
198%% * BrotherSisterIncest: This is why he's scared of Natalya.
199* TheBully: Acts like this to Eston and Raivis, and was implied to be one back in District 9, beating up Russia for his optimism and having a gang of cronies.
200%% * TheBrute: Not belonging to any pack.
201* CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler:Has all of his guts ripped out.]]
202%% * DavidVersusGoliath: In his fights against [[spoiler:Amer]].
203* DeathEqualsEmotion: Serves as {{The Stoic}} for most of the series, but breaks down crying and wishing to go home right before he bites it.
204* EarlyBirdCameo: Briefly mentioned in ''Brutal'' as having attacked Russia; a rather important supporting character in the sequel.
205* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Although he tries to avoid Natalya and has no problem with her dying so he can get home, he does claim to genuinely love her (though not in the way she'd like, thank goodness...)
206%% * EvilOrphan: Though one who is HappilyAdopted.
207* FreudianExcuse: Hinted at; he lost his parents at a young age.
208%% * FunetikAksent: Although not terribly consistent for readability.
209* HappilyAdopted: Natalya's parents took him in and paid for his surgery after he was injured in the machinery accident that killed his parents.
210%% * HeartwarmingOrphan: As a child.
211* HuskyRusskie: Strong and based on Russia.
212%% * JustToyingWithThem: Does this to Amer in the third What If because he's certain he can beat him. Amer proves him wrong.
213* KickTheDog: Cuts off Raivis' finger just to keep him in line.
214* LackOfEmpathy: Sees nothing wrong with [[spoiler: murdering and chopping off fingers for punishment.]]
215%% * NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: [[spoiler: Dies this way at Amer's hands.]]
216%% * NotBloodSiblings: With Natalya.
217* ObliviousAdoption: Possibly. His adoptive mother told him she was his real mother, and it's unknown if he ever figured out the truth.
218* PetTheDog: States that he really does care for Natalya, despite her {{Yandere}} tendencies. Subverted in that he'd be perfectly fine with her death as long as it means he can win.
219* RasputinianDeath: [[spoiler:He has most of his abdominal cavity removed before his cannon fires.]]
220%% * TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Is on the receiving end of a truly merciless one from Amer.
221* RussianGuySuffersMost: [[spoiler:Gets what might be the most painful death in the entire series, having everything – all the way through to his spine – hacked up and ripped apart.]]
222* TheStoic: Doesn't show much emotion until [[spoiler:begging for mercy from Amer]].
223%% * ThisIsUnforgivable: Said to him by Amer after [[spoiler:he kills Eston and Raivis]].
224%% * UsedToBeASweetKid: Seems to be one in Natalya's flashback.
225* VillainsWantMercy: [[spoiler:Begs Amer to stop his {{No Holds Barred Beatdown}}.]]
226* WouldHitAGirl: Kills [[spoiler:Celladora]] at the bloodbath.
227%% * YouMonster: Said to him by Amer after [[spoiler:he kills Eston and Raivis]].
228
229!!Amer Jones:
230
231* TheAtoner: During the latter part of ''Horrible''. Notable in that all his attempts to make up for what he had done wrong [[spoiler: failed miserably, through no fault of his own]].
232%% * BandOfBrothers: First with Eston and Raivis, then Fronce and Igris, and finally [[spoiler: Shiran]].
233* BeAllMySinsRemembered: Can't rebuild his self-image as hero after [[spoiler: killing Vahn.]]
234* BewareTheNiceOnes: Nice enough to swear protection over most people he meets... [[spoiler: And horribly murder anyone in his way.]]
235* BigBrotherInstinct: To Raivis and Eston (ironic in that he's younger than both of them) as well as his own brother, Matt. Eventually extends to [[spoiler: Shiran]] as well.
236* BigDamnHeroes: He rushes in to save Raivis and Eston in chapter 25.
237%% * TheBigGuy: In both of his alliances.
238* BigEater: One chapter opens with him whining for more food, which is apparently a habit.
239* BondingOverMissingParents: He bonds with [[spoiler: Shiran over their missing friend/brother, Igris]].
240* BrokenBird: He's pretty much traumatized for life by the [[spoiler: end of the story]].
241%% * ChronicHeroSyndrome: Vows to save most of the people on his path.
242%% * CurbStompBattle: Vs. Vahn.
243* CynicismCatalyst: It's hard to pick just one for him, between [[spoiler: the deaths of ''all four'' of his allies, his survival at the cost of Igris' life, his [[ShootHimHeHasAWallet murder]] of Sadik, [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge torturing and killing]] Vahn, and losing his illusion of himself as a hero.]] Suffice to say that he's pretty broken as of [[spoiler: the epilogue.]]
244%% * DeadpanSnarker: On occasion, particularly later in the fic when he's allied with Fronce and Igris.
245* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:As he won ''Horrible'', he's pretty much doomed to die in every ''What If'' ending.]]
246%% * DeclarationofProtection: To pretty much all his allies.
247%% * DespairEventHorizon: After the death of [[spoiler:his first alliance]].
248%% * DisproportionateRetribution: The manner in which [[spoiler:he kills Vahn]].
249%% * DoomMagnet: Justified and lampshaded.
250* DrivenToSuicide: Almost. Played nearly straight in the first ending of ''What If'': [[spoiler:he doesn't kill himself, but allows Gries to slit his throat]]. Played straight in the [[spoiler:sixth]] What If.
251* TheDulcineaEffect: Platonic version; he is more than willing to die for friends he's known for only a few days.
252%% * {{Eagleland}}: Wants to be a Type I, but is more of a mix between the two.
253%% * EvilMeScaresMe: This trope is exactly what happened after he realized [[spoiler:what he did to Vahn]].
254%% * ExtremeMeleeRevenge: [[spoiler:He dishes this out to Vahn.]]
255* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:At the end of ''Horrible'' (although it winds up being Igris who dies) and in the third What If.]]
256%% * FaceHeelRevolvingDoor: YMMV on whether he actually becomes a heel or not.
257* FailureToSaveMurder: He believes [[spoiler:Shiran]] will hold him responsible for the death of [[spoiler:his brother, Igris. Shiran]] proves him wrong.
258* FightingFromTheInside: He tries darned hard not to go psychotic again.
259%% * FireForgedFriends: With both of his alliances.
260%% * AGoodWayToDie: [[spoiler:In the third What If.]]
261%% * HeelRealization: [[spoiler:After killing Vahn.]]
262%% * HeroicBSOD: Falls into this after [[spoiler: the death of his first alliance]] and never really gets better, even in [[spoiler: the four-year later epilogue]].
263%% * HeroicResolve: When fighting Vahn in the third What If.
264* HeroicSacrifice: He volunteers for the Hunger Games in place of his twin brother, Matt, [[spoiler: although slightly subverted in that he doesn't die. This trope is played straight in the Third What If.]]
265%% * HeroicSelfDeprecation: To extreme levels.
266%% * HeroicSuicide: Considered this near the end of Horrible so that Igris could win. [[spoiler: He ends up going through with it in the 3rd What If.]]
267%% * HeroicWannabe: In true ''Hetalia'' style.
268* HeroWithAnFInGood: He tries so hard to be the hero, but constantly makes things even worse.
269%% * HeWhoFightsMonsters: Very defensive, he even lampshades this in "Supercritical."
270* IdiotHero: Doesn't seem to realize protecting others means killing at first.
271%% * ILetGwenStacyDie: Will feel guilty over any perceived failures.
272* ImprovisedWeapon: Uses his own broken glasses to [[spoiler: kill Sadik]].
273* InterruptedSuicide: Zigzagged. He's about to kill himself so that [[spoiler: Igris can live]], but is interrupted not by his brother, but the thought that his brother will be watching.
274%% * TheInsomniac: Early on, when he can't find an ally.
275* ItsPersonal: His opinion of Vahn goes from general dislike to UnstoppableRage after the aforementioned [[spoiler: kills his allies]].
276%% * TheLancer: To Igris in his second alliance.
277%% * LetsGetDangerous
278%% * JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: [[spoiler:After killing Sadik, he goes on to violently murder Vahn.]]
279* KickThemWhileTheyAreDown: [[spoiler:Continues to mutilate Vahn, even when he's so injured he can no longer be called a threat.]]

347%% * BandOfBrothers: Part of this with Amer and Eston. Especially pronounced in the third What If.

430
431!!Lovi Vargas:
