History Characters / AWayOut

* BadassBaritone: His voice is deeper than Leo's.

* BadassBaritone: While a bit higher than Vincent's, Leo's voice is nonetheless deep and husky, with a thick Italian accent.

* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler: When he reveals himself as an undercover cop, he's come to view Leo as a friend and is clearly guilty for lying to him and (if the player shoots Leo) ultimately killing him in their final confrontation]].
* CoolOldGuy: Downplayed; while not ''quite'' old as the typical example, being in his early 40's, Vincent looks quite grizzled, and is quite capable of handling things himself. Ray even calls him "grandpa" [[spoiler:after Vincent and Leo tie him up for questioning]]. It's worth noting that in early concept art, Vincent was originally intended to be one, with gray hair and a mustache-beard combo.

--> '''Josef Fares:''' In Leo’s case (after about a year of development), we decided to base his face on the face of my brother, the actor Fares Fares. What I like about my brother’s face, is it’s very cinematic with striking characteristics and why we wanted to use him.

* WhamLine: [[spoiler:[[UndercoverCopReveal "Leo, you're under arrest."]]]]

* WouldHitAGirl: He doesn't hesitate to knock out a female guard [[spoiler:during the hospital escape]].

* HappilyMarried: Linda doesn't care one bit that Leo's a criminal, they're completely in love with each other. [[spoiler: If Leo dies, she's ''absolutely devastated'' about it]]. However, their relationship is not perfect; after the Mexico level, Leo, in suggesting that Vincent write a letter to his wife, mentions that he and Linda went through a similar rough period that was resolved by him writing an apology letter.

* BadassBeard: He has a mustache-and-beard combo, but he's no less capable for an escaped inmate [[spoiler:and an undercover cop]].

** When he and Vincent go sky-diving from Emily's plane, Leo finds that [[ParachuteMalfunction his parachute isn't working]], and starts having a breakdown while still hundreds of feet in the air, screaming for help.

*** In the city area, encountering an arguing couple where the man [[YourCheatingHeart slept with his girl's best friend]] will trigger a conversation where Leo calls the man out on his behavior and makes him apologize to his girl.

* BecomingTheMask: Downplayed. He eventually comes to view Leo as a friend. [[spoiler:When he reveals himself to be to be an undercover cop, he's clearly guilty for lying to him and (if the player shoots Leo) ultimately killing him in their final confrontation]].

* BecomingTheMask: Downplayed. He eventually comes to view Leo as a friend. [[spoiler:When he reveals himself to be to be an undercover cop, he's clearly guilty for lying to him.]]

* FaceYourFears: He is scared of heights. [[spoiler:Yet when he needs to run over to the top of an at least 30-stories-tall crane to catch Ray during the construction site chase and save Vincent, he overcomes his fear]].

* UndercoverCopReveal: [[spoiler:Leo learns in the climax, at the worst possible moment, that Vincent is actually a police officer who fabricated his background and lied to him so he could have someperson to get through to Harvey. [[EtTuBrute When Vincent points a police-issue gun at Leo to make his arrest]], Leo breaks down, and proceeds to [[LaserGuidedKarma hold his former friend hostage]]]].

* PornStache: One of Vincent's flashbacks shows him with this mustache style when he was at a dinner with Carol before their marriage started to fall apart. [[spoiler:It also appears in his funeral portrait if he is killed; or, if Leo is killed, when he goes to deliver the news to Linda]].

* ShoutOut: In the final fight, an unhinged Harvey introduces himself wearing a suit and brandishing a grenade launcher. This is very similar to Tony Montana and his "Little Friend" in ''Film/Scarface1983''. Even his death, being riddled with bullets before falling into a pool, is exactly how Tony died.

* DeathByFallingOver: Tries to invoke this to either Vincent or Leo, should they reach him in the crane area. [[spoiler:After they capture him and fail to get information, Leo stews in his thoughts until he decides that he's had enough, and furiously kicks the guy off a building several stories high. [[GoryDiscretionShot The screen whites out before he hits the ground]], but it's clear he's dead by now[[note]]This is done by pulling Ray close to the edge, and having Leo stand by a table for a certain amount of time, which will trigger a short cutscene. After that, whoever plays as Leo will walk him over to Ray, leading to the trope. The trophy for this is "Managed Anger"[[/note]]]].

* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: [[spoiler:If you have him kill Vincent, this is his reaction after killing him for his deception. In fact, he doesn't gloat or tell him off, only silently agreeing to fulfill his dying wish of bringing his letter to Carol. While he tries to comfort himself with being there for his own wife and son, and moves them presumably out of state to start fresh, it is clear that killing Vincent did not bring him any satisfaction at all]].

* HotBlooded: Leo's described as aggressive by both his character selection bio and [[WordOfGod Josef]] himself, and most of his options when interacting with others involve violence. [[spoiler:It's eventually deconstructed; once Leo finds out about Vincent's deceit in the climax, he ''explodes'', and becomes set on killing him, refusing to listen to reason or Vincent's pleas. This results in a rooftop battle that either results in Leo's death (if the player chooses to shoot him) or Leo actually killing Vincent only to deeply regret his actions afterwards (if the player decides to shoot Vincent). More tellingly, had Leo acquired more control of his anger, it would have prevented both of their families from going to the pain and grief of losing a loved one]].

* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: [[spoiler:If you have him kill Vincent, this is his reaction after killing him for his deception. In fact, he doesn't gloat or tell him off, only silently agreeing to fulfill his dying wish of bringing his letter to Carol. He continues to feel empty while delivering the letter and moving out with his family for a fresh start]].

* PoorCommunicationKills: [[spoiler:Had Vincent simply told Leo the truth beforehand, neither of them would've died; instead they would work to bring down Harvey together, with help from the police force, and Leo would possibly receive a reduced sentence that would allow him to see his family early. Therefore, Leo's outburst when he finds out late in the game was all on Vincent's shoulders. This is somewhat justified as the FBI try to get Leo to talk about Harvey, but Leo refuses to cooperate. This forces them to use the undercover agent plan.]]

* WhatTheHellHero: [[spoiler:If he lives, he'll get chewed out by a widowed Linda for killing Leo. He walks away looking deeply ashamed afterwards]].
** [[spoiler: To be fair, he tried many times to talk Leo down and offer him lighter sentences, only really fighting back in self defense.]]
