- Does Not Like Spam: According to Pastel, he hates sauerkraut.
- Heroes Love Dogs: In the gameplay trailer, he befriends a stray dog.
- Telepathy: Has this as one of his VOX-based abilities; Word of God describes people like him as "Receivers". In a post on the MOTHER 4 blog, it was displayed that Travis is capable of using an ability simply called telepathy to read the minds of NPC's, and he can use it in battle to reveal enemy characteristics as well.
- Vomit Indiscretion Shot: This gif has Travis taste some kind of liquid from a cactus tap that makes him nauseous. His fellow party members will quickly back away shortly before he vomits.

- Good Old Fisticuffs: His old clay model describes him as an aspiring boxing champ. Later on, a screenshot posted on the MOTHER 4 blog shows a punching bag as one of Zack's possessions.
- Nice Guy: From what little we've seen of him in trailers and supplementary material, Zack is this to Travis, as their interactions are anything but antagonistic.

Leo
- The Alcoholic: Implied. Word of God posted a screenshot◊ of him drinking in a bar.
- All There in the Manual: His biography on the MOTHER 4 website states that his favorite thing is dishwashers. Word of God reveals that this is because he wants a quicker way to clean dishes so his biker gang can eat on clean plates.

- Smoking Is Cool: He's seen smoking in the old level up music video and the Attract Mode trailer. His clay model even holds a cigar.
