| 25 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Mixed with CompositeCharacter; him being the assistant of M in this film means that he basically fills in the role held in previous films by both Moneypenny (M's secretary) and Bill Tanner (M's Chief of Staff), who are absent in this film.[[note]]He even shares his name with James Villiers, the actor who played Tanner in ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly''.[[/note]] This even led to him getting the [[invoked]] FanNickname of "Manpenny". |
| 26 | * VoiceWithAnInternetConnection: He sends Bond information about the plane prototype that Le Chiffre wants to have blown up by Carlos so Bond can act quickly to stop Carlos. |
| 27 | * VomitingCop: He gets sick at the sight of Solange's dead body on the beach. |
| 28 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He doesn't appear again after ''Casino Royale'' and isn't even mentioned by M or any of the characters.[[note]]Incidentally, Bill Tanner and Moneypenny, the characters Villiers [[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute appears to have stood in for]] in ''Casino Royale'', were reintroduced in ''Quantum of Solace'' and ''Skyfall'', respectively.[[/note]] |

| 41 | |
| 42 | A British field operative who worked alongside James Bond in Madagascar while scouting for bomb maker Mollaka. Carter touching his earpiece leads Mollaka to spot him and run away, forcing Bond to leave his position and run off in pursuit of Mollaka. |
| 43 | ---- |
| 44 | * AllThereInTheManual: Carter reappears in the ''Quantum of Solace'' video game, where his first name is given as Brian. |
| 45 | * LastNameBasis: He's only referred to as "Carter" in the film. When he reappears in the ''Quantum of Solace'' video game, his first name is given as Brian. |
| 46 | * TheMillstone: Carter causes nothing but trouble for Bond in their attempt to apprehend Mollaka, first alerting him to [=MI6=]'s presence with his constant ear-touching, then taking out his gun when they need to capture Mollaka alive, and finally causing a stampede that impedes Bond's chase. |
| 47 | * NewMeat: It's implied that he is probably a junior agent, given that he is paired with Bond (who is shown in the film to have just obtained his 00 status) and the gaffe with his earpiece. |
| 48 | * ObligatoryEarpieceTouch: While he and Bond are surveilling for Mollaka, Carter repeatedly fiddles with his earpiece, much to the frustration of Bond, who scolds him for doing it and tells him not to draw attention to himself. Sure enough, their target notices the other agent while the agent is pushing on the earpiece and makes a run for it. |
| 49 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: He only appears in the scene immediately following the opening credits, but it's because of his bungling causing Mollaka to flee that Bond is forced to give chase to Mollaka himself, resulting in the epic (and highly destructive) chase scene afterward. |
| 50 | * UnwantedAssistance: When Mollaka spots him, he draws his gun and attempts to give chase to him, but he trips and falls into the crowd, causing his gun to fire and make the crowd run off in all directions. |
| 51 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He doesn't appear again in the film after Mollaka flees away. |

| 62 | ->''"If the only thing left of you was your smile and your little finger, you'd still be more of a man than anyone I've ever known."'' |
| 63 | |
| 64 | Vesper Lynd is a treasury agent who is tasked to accompany Bond to the poker tournament at Casino Royale, posing as his wife. Bond and Vesper eventually fall in love in the aftermath of the mission and Bond is prepared to leave the service for her. |
| 65 | |
| 66 | She is the very first Bond Girl to appear in the novels (defining his later relationships with women in them), and she is arguably the love of Bond's life in the Craig continuity. |
| 67 | ---- |
| 68 | * AdaptationalJobChange: In the novel, she was an agent of [=MI6=]'s Station S, posing as Mathis' radio assistant. |
| 69 | * AdaptationalPersonalityChange: In the novel, she runs the emotional gamut throughout. She's upbeat when we first met her, but then after the game, she's down. She's upbeat when she's planning what they're going to do in Bond's hotel room, and then she's down on the way to the seaside getaway. In the film, she remains emotionally stable throughout, except at the end. |
| 70 | * AfraidOfBlood: She sobs about the blood that's on her while [[ShowerOfAngst sitting in the shower]], clothed, consumed by feelings of guilt after watching Obanno and his {{Mooks}} getting killed by Bond. |
| 71 | * AgeGapRomance: Creator/EvaGreen is 12 years Creator/DanielCraig's junior, and Vesper was three years even younger--23 to Green's RealLife 26--in ''Casino Royale'', making the age difference between their characters 15 years. |
| 72 | * AntiVillain: [[spoiler:She's directly working against Bond and his mission the entire time, but it's clear that it wasn't her choice. [[Film/QuantumOfSolace The sequel]] makes her even more sympathetic.]] |
| 73 | * BrainyBrunette: A brunette accountant who works for Her Majesty's Treasury. |
| 74 | * BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:She has to play along with everything to steal the staked money and rescue her kidnapped boyfriend.]] |
| 75 | * BuxomBeautyStandard: She's very well-endowed and wears cleavage-heavy outfits to emphasise it. Bond makes reference to this when he gives her the alias "Stephanie ''Broadchest''". |
| 76 | * CartwrightCurse: [[spoiler:She commits suicide by not allowing Bond to rescue her from drowning out of guilt from betraying him.]] |
| 77 | * DarkSecret: [[spoiler:Vesper is being blackmailed by Quantum into helping Le Chiffre so the life of her kidnapped boyfriend can be spared.]] |
| 78 | * DeadpanSnarker: A regular goldmine of sarcastic barbs. |
| 79 | * DefrostingIceQueen: She starts out as cold towards Bond, before gradually warming out to him. [[spoiler:This becomes much more dramatic with the revelation later on (and the possible reason for this) that she had a boyfriend kidnapped by Quantum, which forced her to work for them, only to fall for Bond for real.]] |
| 80 | * DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: [[spoiler:In the novel, she [[DrivenToSuicide commits suicide]] via poison. In the film, she drowns herself.]] |
| 81 | * DistractedByTheSexy: What she is supposed to do to Bond's adversaries in the poker tournament. It actually winds up working more on Bond himself in practice. |
| 82 | * FemmeFatale: Subverted. She seems to tick all the boxes [[spoiler:up to turning on the hero, but turning on him wasn't her choice]]. |
| 83 | * TheFirstCutIsTheDeepest: Even when Bond eventually found a SecondLove in [[Film/{{Spectre}} Madeleine]] [[Film/NoTimeToDie Swann]], he came at her grave in Matera to express his regrets. |
| 84 | * GamblerGroupies: She is used by Bond as a strategic distraction for the other competitors during the card game. |
| 85 | * GirlOfTheWeek: More than that actually. She becomes Bond's true LoveInterest in the Craig era Bond [[spoiler:and her loss is [[TheLostLenore just as influential]] on Craig's Bond as the loss of Tracy was on the other Bonds.]] |
| 86 | * HeroicBSOD: She goes through one after seeing Obanno and his henchmen getting killed by Bond. |
| 87 | * ImprobableAge: Creator/EvaGreen was 26 when she starred as Vesper, with her [[spoiler:gravestone]] in ''Film/NoTimeToDie'' revealing that she was born in 1983, meaning that Vesper was already a high-ranking British Treasury agent at age 23. |
| 88 | * TheLostLenore: [[spoiler:For the Craig era Bond in general, as years later in ''Film/{{Spectre}}'' he is still shown to be somewhat affected by her death, then [[GraveMarkingScene goes to her grave]] in Matera in ''Film/NoTimeToDie''.]] |
| 89 | * LoveInterestTraitor: [[spoiler:Bond's LoveInterest who turned out to work for Quantum. She has no choice however, as Quantum coerced her to work for them, and she doesn't want to harm Bond.]] |
| 90 | * TheMole: [[spoiler:She's secretly working for Quantum.]] |
| 91 | * MsFanservice: When she walks into the poker room in either dress, but especially the latter; a black dress that lets her cleavage (and there is ''[[https://i.redd.it/m0vomy7tdr651.jpg a lot]]'' of it) on full display. This is shown when she revives Bond via MagicalDefibrillator. Her ''[[BuxomBeautyStandard ample proportions]]'' are even referenced InUniverse when, as they're about to register into a hotel, Bond says that he prepared aliases for both of them and jokes that he gave Vesper "Stephanie ''Broadchest''", which results in him getting an elbow from Vesper. |
| 92 | * MeaningfulName: Vesper Lynd is a [[PunnyName pun]] on "West Berlin". Berlin was a city split down the middle during the UsefulNotes/ColdWar. Vesper's loyalties are equally split. |
| 93 | * PresentAbsence: Vesper casts a long shadow over the Craig continuity, and is mentioned in literally every film save ''Skyfall''. |
| 94 | * RavenHairIvorySkin: She has fair skin, dark hair, and is outstandingly attractive. Mathis even remarks on this towards the end of the poker game. |
| 95 | * ShowSomeLeg: She wears a low-cut dress given by Bond to be a distraction during the card game, even walking with a [[SupermodelStrut deliberate hip-swaying strut]] around the table. Funny enough, it works so well that even [[SpiesAreLecherous Bond himself is distracted.]] |
| 96 | * UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:As revealed in ''Quantum of Solace'', her boyfriend was a Quantum agent who was using her to get information, then faked his own kidnapping to force her to betray her country.]] |
| 97 | * WhoNamesTheirKidDude: Bond lampshades how weird the name "Vesper Lynd" is. He hopes she gave her parents hell for that. |

| 112 | |
| 113 | The main villain of the film. He is a banker for terrorist funds who uses them in his own moneymaking schemes (wherein he short sells massive shares of a company's stock, then stages terrorist attacks on said company's major assets to drive them into bankruptcy). After one goes disastrously wrong due to Bond's interference, he is forced to hold the poker tournament at Casino Royale to hastily win back the losses. |
| 114 | ---- |
| 115 | * ActuallyPrettyFunny: He can't resist smirking when Bond says he won't consider himself in trouble until he starts weeping blood. Later on after "[[BigNo NO!]] [[RefugeInAudacity To the right! To the right!]]" while Le Chiffre is [[GroinAttack whipping his balls with a rope]], Le Chiffre tells him sincerely "You are a funny man Mr. Bond!" |
| 116 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: In the original novel, Le Chiffre is described as an overweight, unattractive man. In the film, however, he's trim and handsome. Note that Mads Mikkelsen has been voted "Denmark's sexiest man" multiple times. |
| 117 | * AdaptationalBadass: This Le Chiffre is ''far'' more dangerous than his previous incarnations. |
| 118 | * AdaptationalDyeJob: The novel describes his hair being red-brown, instead of jet black as in this film. |
| 119 | * AdaptationalSexuality: Le Chiffre in the novel was described as having large sexual appetites, kept multiple mistresses (one of whom was [[HoneyTrap spying on him for MI6]]) and invested in a chain of brothels with the benefit of having unlimited women for his personal use (which would indirectly lead to his downfall). Movie Le Chiffre doesn't show much sex drive, even for his supposed girlfriend. |
| 120 | * AdaptationalWeaponSwap: In the novel, he tortures Bond with a carpet-beater. In the film, he uses a knotted rope. |
| 121 | * AllForNothing: Much of the movie was him desperately trying to find a way to pay back his clients lest they kill him, only for Mr. White to do just that before Le Chiffre could get the poker winnings out from Bond. To rub salt to the wound, Mr. White implies that Le Chiffre was dead regardless of whether he paid back the money or not because he had betrayed Quantum's trust by embezzling their money in the first place. |
| 122 | * AssholeVictim: He's executed in cold blood by Mr. White for his failure. But considering that Le Chiffre was a psychopath who previously had Solange tortured and murdered on a hunch that she snitched (she didn't), didn't lift a finger when Obanno threatened to cut off his girlfriend's arm, and was just torturing Bond in a cruel and painful way (not to mention very nearly poisoned him to death), one can't deny that he had it coming. |
| 123 | * BadassInANiceSuit: Le Chiffre always wears all-black. His tuxedo shirt is also this colour. |
| 124 | * BigBadEnsemble: Although he ultimately turns out to be a DiscOneFinalBoss to Mr. White, Bond infiltrating his poker tournament is the [[TheHeavy primary conflict]] for the majority of the movie. |
| 125 | * BigBadWannabe: He is introduced controlling the money of terrorists world wide. Despite this, a risky bet that causes him to lose the money reveals him as little more than a well paid SmugSnake. He is pretty much powerless when two terrorists threaten him if he fails to get the money back. After he loses to Bond in poker, he's reduced to a desperate state and decides to just torture Bond to get the money, and when Bond proves to be unwavering, he totally loses it and prepares to kill him in a fit of anger. Then Mr. White arrives, tired with his failure and shoots him in the head with half an hour of film still left to go. |
| 126 | * CantKillYouStillNeedYou: [=MI6=] wants him alive and bankrupted so that he'll sell out his terrorist clients for protection. Le Chiffre even invokes this as he's torturing Bond. In the book, M was advised that assassination would only [[DontCreateAMartyr martyr him]] to his Communist allies and sympathisers. |
| 127 | * CharacterTics: The small muscle in his right temple twitches when whenever he bluffs, causing him to press against it. [[IAmNotLeftHanded Though, he is keenly aware of this quirk himself and uses it against his opponents from time to time.]] |
| 128 | * TheChessmaster: He hatches moneymaking schemes wherein he short sells massive shares of a company's stock, then stages terrorist attacks on said company's major assets to drive them into bankruptcy. It's even stated that he's an expert chess player. |
| 129 | * ConspicuousConsumption: His yacht, fine clothes, and platinum inhaler are all displays of his immense wealth. |
| 130 | * DarkIsEvil: He has dark hair and dresses entirely in black. |
| 131 | * DeadpanSnarker: Engages in lots of snark to snark combat with Bond. |
| 132 | * DiabolicalMastermind: He has the wealth (he's a banker), enough numbers of {{mooks}}, and connections with a leader of the Lord's Resistance Army. |
| 133 | * DiscOneFinalBoss: He spends the film as Bond's most consistent rival and most cunning antagonist until [[spoiler:his continued failures lead to Mr. White killing him, with 30 minutes of action still to go in the film]]. |
| 134 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: In his first scene, he uses Obanno's money to short-sell a large amount of stock, ''against'' his stock broker's advice (right after he agreed to ''not'' gamble with the money). In his second scene, he handily [[CunningPeoplePlayPoker wins a poker game]] aboard his yacht, then [[LackOfEmpathy throws his guests out]]. |
| 135 | * EpicFlail: He uses a knotted rope to repeatedly whip Bond in the balls. |
| 136 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Subverted. While Le Chiffre ''does'' have a girlfriend, he doesn't seem to harbor any romantic feelings or general affection for her. |
| 137 | * EvilGenius: He is a mathematical genius who services many of the world's terrorists and the Quantum organization. |
| 138 | * EvilWearsBlack: He wears an all-black tux. |
| 139 | * EyeScream: Implied. He has scars near his left eye, which weeps blood during moments of stress, suggesting that he sustained an eye injury in the past. [[WordOfStPaul According to Mads Mikkelsen]], Le Chiffre grew up in a rough neighbourhood in Eastern Europe and made money as a teenage criminal using his mathematical genius to win at gambling. Due to not being the toughest kid on his block he took to carrying a knife to defend himself and once in a fight, he [[EyeScream got the knife in his eye]]. |
| 140 | * FatalFlaw: |
| 141 | ** Le Chiffre's [[ATragedyOfImpulsiveness impulsive and self-destructive]] [[TheGamblingAddict gambling addiction]], along with his [[SmugSnake complete overconfidence]] is what brought him down in the end. |
| 142 | ** In the film, it's ultimately his {{Greed}} that does him in. Le Chiffre had already short sold a hefty sum of Skyfleet stock by the time he received Obanno's money (he told his stockbroker to short "another million of Skyfleet stock"). Meaning if he hadn't gotten greedy and gambled with his client's money [[spoiler:he likely wouldn't have been killed by Mr. White for being untrustworthy.]] |
| 143 | ** In the book, his [[ReallyGetsAround extreme lust]] is noted to be his AchillesHeel; he embezzled 50 million francs from SMERSH to buy a chain of brothels. This backfired when the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loi_Marthe_Richard Marthe Richard Law]] suddenly closed all brothels in France and ruined his investment, putting him in severe debt. In addition, one of his mistresses was working for [=MI6=], and was able to uncover the state of his financials, leading to the operation to bankrupt him. |
| 144 | * FauxAffablyEvil: He's calm, collected, and polite, even when interrogating and torturing Bond for the password to the winnings, but loses it when he realises that Bond has no intention of giving him said information. |
| 145 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: He has his girlfriend walk into the room wearing only a skimpy bathing suit whilst he's gambling on his yacht in order to distract his opponent. He gives her a quick admiring look but is NotDistractedByTheSexy. That's why he doesn't fall for it when Bond tries the same trick on him later with Vesper (although he does take a quick glance at Vesper's ass). |
| 146 | * TheGamblingAddict: Oddly enough, while he does seem to enjoy cards, his ''real'' gambling addiction is the stock market, which he tilts in his favour by sabotaging companies into bankruptcy to plummet their stock. |
| 147 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: He has small scars near his left eye. |
| 148 | * GroinAttack: What he does with a knotted rope to interrogate and torture Bond. He's just about to castrate Bond when [[spoiler:Mr. White shoots Kratt and Valenka offscreen, then walks through the door to shoot Le Chiffre in the head]]. |
| 149 | -->'''Le Chiffre:''' I'll feed you what you seem not to value. |
| 150 | * TheHeavy: He is the main antagonist whose direct actions are the primary focus of the film, even though Mr. White is his superior within Quantum. |
| 151 | * IWillPunishYourFriendForYourFailure: Obanno threatens to mutilate his girlfriend Valenka if he doesn't secure his money. Le Chiffre doesn't do much about it, though it's never explicitly stated whether this is because he doesn't care, is just too cowardly, or is calling Obanno's bluff. Note, he's also being restrained himself, so about all he ''could'' have done would be to verbally protest. |
| 152 | * JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Desperate to reclaim his funds he lost to Bond in gambling, he conducts an interrogation by torture via whacking his crotch with a knotted rope for the password to his winnings. He also threatens to castrate him and would've done so had Mr. White not intervened and shot him dead. |
| 153 | * KarmicDeath: |
| 154 | ** When he's interrogating and torturing Bond for the password to the winnings, he tells him that Valenka and one of his henchmen are questioning Vesper. Then, gunshots and a woman's scream are heard in another room, and Le Chiffre assumes that they killed Vesper, and gloats about it to Bond. Just when Le Chiffre is about to kill Bond, Mr. White bursts from said room, revealing that the gunshots heard before came from him and implying that he killed Valenka and the henchman, and shoots Le Chiffre dead. |
| 155 | ** Also in a financial sense, he drove companies to bankruptcy to make a profit, and by the end, he is made bankrupt himself. |
| 156 | * TheManBehindTheMan: He insulates himself heavily from the people who commit the deeds that allow his stock market bets to pay off. Both of the would-be bombers for the Skyfleet attempt are hired for Le Chiffre via Alex Dimitrios. |
| 157 | * MeaningfulName: Le Chiffre means "The Number" in French. In the novel, it was an alias deliberately chosen by the villain (real name never provided) because he was nothing more than a "number" to the displaced persons bureaucracy. |
| 158 | * MirrorCharacter: Much like in the book, he and Bond are set up as mirror images of each other, in certain ways: both a TuxedoAndMartini DeadpanSnarker with a glamorous [[MsFanservice sexily-dressed]] lady serving as their sidekick. However, while Le Chiffre is trying to win to protect himself from his employers, and is desperate to save his own skin, Bond is competing to protect the world on behalf of his government, and is fully prepared to die if necessary to complete the mission. |
| 159 | * MorallyBankruptBanker: His day job is handling the money of terrorists and other organised crime, which he uses to fund his own terrorist attacks for even more wealth. |
| 160 | * NoNonsenseNemesis: Le Chiffre is OnlyInItForTheMoney and to save his own neck; while he does show signs of intellectual vanity and showing off how smart he is, overall his primary focus is making money and staying alive. As such, his efforts to murder and later torture Bond and others are ruthlessly straightforward, and he expresses open disdain for more theatrical villainy. |
| 161 | -->"I've never understood all these elaborate tortures. It's the simplest thing, to cause more pain than a man can possibly endure". |
| 162 | * ObviouslyEvil: If the [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience all black tuxedo]] and his bearing and demeanour wasn't enough, he tells his [[TheDragon second-in-command]] to throw the guests he had just beaten in poker overboard if they weren't gone in five minutes. Ironically, he lampshades the fact that he has [[RedRightHand an eye injury]] that makes him weep blood when stressed, saying that it's "[[BlatantLies nothing sinister]]." |
| 163 | * OhCrap: |
| 164 | ** He has one when Bond beats his full house with a straight flush. The smile is wiped off his face and he gets up and walks away from the table without looking at anyone. |
| 165 | ** [[spoiler:He has another one when Mr. White kills Valenka and Kratt, and Mr White enters pointing a gun at him.]] |
| 166 | * OnlyKnownByHisNickname: Everyone refers to him as Le Chiffre ("the number") instead of using his birth name. |
| 167 | * PerpetualFrowner: Aside from the occasional PsychoticSmirk, Le Chiffre seldom smiles throughout the movie. Given the stress he's under, it's fair. In the books, his profile states that he "Smiles infrequently. Does not laugh". |
| 168 | * PrettyLittleHeadshots: Mr. White disposes him with a clean shot on his forehead. |
| 169 | * ProfessionalGambler: He's a skilled card player. A major plot event is when he arranges a high-stakes card game in order to secure $100 million he lost in an investment gone wrong. |
| 170 | * RaceLift: He is suspected by the British Secret Service to be Jewish in the original Ian Fleming novel (Creator/PeterLorre -- the 1954 TV version of Le Chiffre -- was Jewish as well). In the 2006 film, they think he might be Albanian, while Creator/MadsMikkelsen is Danish. |
| 171 | * RedRightHand: He weeps blood from his left eye when stressed. [[BlatantLies Nothing sinister]]. |
| 172 | * SharpDressedMan: Check out his tux! |
| 173 | * SmugSnake: A rather creepy version of this, albeit a highly competent one. Behaves like he's the BigBad for most of the film, and in practice he is, but when his EvilPlan crumbles around him he becomes desperate until being killed. |
| 174 | * TheStateless: His nationality is indicated as such on his [=MI6=] file. |
| 175 | * StealingFromTheTill: Uses his clients' money to make high-risk investments when he was explicitly told "no risk in the portfolio". |
| 176 | * SuppressedRage: His reaction after his latest terrorist plot has failed and he's lost over $100 million-- he takes a long drag from his inhaler and remarks "Someone talked" before having Dmitrios' wife interrogated and killed offscreen. |
| 177 | * TheUnfettered: Mikkelsen describes him as a "greedy bastard" who doesn't care if people get killed as long as he can make some money. |
| 178 | * TearsOfBlood: Blood comes from his left eye during moments of stress. Nothing sinister, though. |
| 179 | * TheTell: His is putting his left hand to his forehead just above his left eye, as if he's pondering his next move. |
| 180 | * TortureTechnician: Knows a very simple and [[GroinAttack very painful]] way to interrogate someone. |
| 181 | * VillainsWantMercy: One of the interesting things about him is that, despite him being the film's BigBad, the plot largely revolves around him being in financial trouble with some other criminal organisations and desperately trying to save his own ass. |
| 182 | * VillainousBreakdown: He's very calm until Bond refuses to give him what he wants while torturing him. |
| 183 | * VillainousCheekbones: He's the main antagonist through most of the film and he's played by Mads Mikkelsen, who has rather prominent cheekbones. |
| 184 | * VillainsOutShopping: His poker game on board his yacht. |
| 185 | * WaistcoatOfStyle: Par for the course for villains played by Mads Mikkelsen. |
| 186 | * WealthyYachtOwner: First seen playing poker aboard a yacht. |
| 187 | * YouHaveFailedMe: Mr. White kills him for his repeated failures and untrustworthiness. |

| 199 | * ButtMonkey: Not much goes well for him. He loses his car and money in a poker game to Bond, his wife cheats on him, he's baselessly accused of being a traitor by Le Chiffre, and finally stabbed by Bond. Mind you, [[AssholeVictim he deserves all of it]]. |
| 200 | * CoolCar: Owns an Aston Martin [=DB5=], until he loses it to Bond. |
| 201 | * TheGamblingAddict: Loves playing poker so much he's ready to sacrifice his beautiful vintage car. Too bad he plays against ''James Bond'', who's a poker ace with TheMagicPokerEquation. |
| 202 | * GoodAdulteryBadAdultery: He flirts with a waitress at the casino and spurns Solange. His wife cheats back at him with Bond and gives away his flight to Miami in his latest terrorist plot. |
| 203 | * HerosClassicCar: He's not the hero per se, but he's the reason Daniel Craig's James Bond gets his own classic Aston Martin [=DB5=] in his continuity. |
| 204 | * {{Jerkass}}: He's short-tempered, dismissive and neglectful to his wife and is a terrorist to boot. |
| 205 | * TheNapoleon: He's a short fellow and is characterised as being bad-tempered and "not the type to take bad news well." |
| 206 | * NumberTwo: He is Le Chiffre's intermediary in charge of finding freelance terrorists for his scheme. |

| 220 | * FlatCharacter: She's Le Chiffre's girlfriend, other than that we know nothing about her. |
| 221 | * GamblerGroupies: Le Chiffre uses her the same way Bond uses Vesper: a distraction for the other competitors during the card game. |

| 239 | A freelance terrorist hired by Dimitrios for Le Chiffre's operation. He is attending a mongoose versus snake pit fight in Madagascar, and unsuspectingly being shadowed by Bond and Carter. Mainly due to Carter, Mollaka realises he is being watched and runs. Bond then chases him to the Nambutu embassy, kills him and flees with his backpack. |

| 241 | * AfricanTerrorists: He's an African [[TerroristsWithoutACause Terrorist Without a Cause]]. |
| 242 | * {{Determinator}}: He ''really'' wants to get away from Bond. The chase scene shows that guy knows a lot about freerunning and LeParkour (his actor is the founder of freerunning, and considered an early developer of parkour). Too bad for him that Bond decides to [[DungeonBypass bypass]] all of that. |
| 243 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: His bomber career shows on his face. |
| 244 | * KickTheDog: He kills several people who get in his way while he's fleeing Bond, so the audience won't feel bad about Bond offing him later. |
| 245 | * LeParkour: Uses parkour to try to evade Bond. Played by one of the pioneering members, too. |

| 262 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: Literally: Carlos attached a bomb to a fuel truck to destroy the plane, but Bond found it and attached it to Carlos' belt in the struggle. When Carlos detonated the bomb, he found it attached to himself too late. |
| 263 | * OhCrap: The look he has at the end of the ChaseScene on the airport runway when he discovers that the bomb he attached to the fuel truck has been attached to his belt by Bond is this. |
| 264 | * SmugSnake: He gives an expression to Bond just before he detonates the bomb that says "I win." He was oh so wrong. |

| 266 | * WhyAmITicking: He sets off a bomb he believes to be attached to a fuel truck next to a prototype jumbo jet, but unbeknownst to him, however, Bond had attached the bomb to his belt during the preceding fight scene.

| 321 | * FauxAffablyEvil: He's rather gregarious and friendly, but he's a ruthless warlord who is quick to jump to violence and drops the niceties very quickly when he feels slighted. |
| 322 | * HiddenDepths: When he's about to cut off Valenka's hand as a lesson to Le Chiffre, he pauses at the last instant, notes that Le Chiffre hasn't uttered "a word of protest", and suggests Valenka find a new boyfriend. A few seconds later, his partner notices Bond's earpiece, which most people wouldn't, and ''immediately'' attacks. Obanno trusts his man enough to immediately back him up. |

| 338 | Dryden appears in the DeliberatelyMonochrome prologue of the film. He is a corrupt [[UsefulNotes/SecretIntelligenceService MI6]] section chief in Prague, shot by Bond during his last mission before becoming a 00 Agent. Bond's second on-screen kill in the Craig continuity. |
| 339 | ---- |
| 340 | * AffablyEvil: He's quite polite with Bond, even sympathetically trying to give him advice on how ItGetsEasier before Bond shoots him. |
| 341 | * CasualDangerDialogue: He's [[StiffUpperLip entirely too British]] to get upset by something as [[SarcasmMode mundane]] as a government assassin lying in wait in his office. |
| 342 | * DoubleAgent: A section chief of [=MI6=]'s station in Prague who's selling official secrets to terrorists. |
| 343 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He'll sell state secrets to terrorists without batting an eye but keeps a framed photo of his family on his desk. This is one of the first indications that Craig's interpretation of Bond is a ''decidedly'' more morally ambiguous one. It's also implied that he cares in some capacity for his affiliates, going so far as to ask how his contact was killed and looking affected at the description. |
| 344 | * FaceDeathWithDignity: Once he realises Bond has the drop on him, he resigns himself to it and doesn't bother begging for his life and even assures Bond that it'll be easy. Ironically, Bond agreeing that it would be easier reflects more on how Dryden was resigned to his death (and how Bond's first on-screen kill was quite a physical struggle), rather than it being less of a psychological burden; because Bond's military and intelligence agent history means he's probably killed people on at least several occasions before these two instances. |
| 345 | * GenreBlindness: He assumes that if M wanted him dead, she'd have sent a Double O. It turns out M doesn't seem to consider him quite as important as he does, though she does send him the next best thing – someone about to qualify for the role. |
| 346 | * HopeSpot: For a moment, he honestly thinks he has gotten the drop on Bond. |
| 347 | * ItWorksBetterWithBullets: Bond knows where Dryden keeps his gun and removed the bullets [[ForTheLulz evidently just to troll him.]] |

Bond follows him into the cricket club's toilets and they start brawling. He is notable as the first man to be killed on-screen by Bond in the Craig continuity, and the first of two kills required in order for Bond to qualify for 00-status. |

Fisher is [[FakingTheDead feigning his death]] and as Bond turns to retrieve his pistol from the floor, the thug snatches his own weapon and takes aim. With lightning-fast reflexes, Bond turns and shoots first.
