23	%%* AFatherToHisMen: Mason
24	%%* AbusiveParents: Thomas' dad, and Kat's parents (according to her.)
25	* AmbiguouslyGay: Chris and others believe that Hayley is homosexual, but they may simply be making assumptions based on his behavior and crossdressing. Hayley himself has said nothing on the matter.
26	%%* AttentionWhore: Genevieve and Hayley stand out as prime examples.
27	%%* AuthorTract: This happens on occasion on the "Author Remarks" sections that appear before and after a chapter.
28	%%* BeliefMakesYouStupid: David. Justified, due to his upbringing.

33	%%* ChivalrousPervert: Jacob
34	* CloudCuckooLander: This work is heavily populated with cuckoos.
35	** Zayden's constant daydreaming distracts him from reality.
36	** Ethelinda is seen as such by Chris and the other players, although it's ambiguous whether she really is. Some contestants also see her as a [[BadLiar phony]] due to her overall appearance and her seemingly outlandish claims of possessing magic powers, clairvoyance and levitation ability.
37	%%** Hayley
38	%%** Iris
39	%%** Tania is the lightest example. Her randomness and quirky nature put her on this spot.
40	%%* {{Crossdresser}}: Hayley
41	* DarkAndTroubledPast: This seems to be a recurring theme to many of the characters.
42	** [[spoiler: Mason]]'s parents kicked him out of the house and sent him to boot camp due to his former rebellious nature.
43	** [[spoiler: Thomas']] father kicked him out of the house age ''six''. Then he was put in an adoptive home where [[KidsAreCruel his peers bullied him]].

60	%%* ItsAllAboutMe: Blake & Genevieve
61	%%* {{Jerkass}}: Another common trait among the cast. Big-Daddy, Blake, Genevieve, Jazmin, Paisley, Seth fit the bill, as does a "stealth jerkass".
62	* LaughingMad: Iris' signature laugh raises questions about her stability.
63	%%* LazyBum: Zayden
64	%%* LikeIsLikeAComma: [[spoiler: Felicity]], as a part of her strategy [[BitchinSheepsClothing to divert suspicion]].

72	%%* OddFriendship: There are quite a few in this fic.
73	%%* ThePhilosopher: Augustus
74	* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: [[spoiler: Felicity]] with her strong hatred for gays and people of ethnicities other then her own.
75	%%* PrettyBoy: Seth, according to Hayley and Stephanie.
76	%%* ThePrimaDonna: Genevieve
77	* RedOniBlueOni: Mason is red, the energetic, emotional one whilst Nigel is blue, the more calm, rational one.
78	%%* RichBitch: Genevieve
79	%%* TheRunaway: Kat. This is the most important element of her backstory.

92	* TheUnintelligible - Big-Daddy, every sentence he speaks is hard to understand.

94	%%* VillainWithGoodPublicity: [[spoiler: Felicity]] and Genevieve.
95	%%* WideEyedIdealist: David and Mason
96	* YoungerThanTheyLook: Lois' is a teenager, but her picture makes her look more like she's in her thirties.
