* TomboyishName: She's a very independent, adventurous person who goes by "Sam". Also she's Two Spirit which at the very least means gender-nonconformity (it can indicate a variety of things).

YMMV trope. Also technically doesn't qualify for the trope given that she appeared in more than one scene.

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: So far, even though she's understandably furious at the funeral and wanting to exact revenge (for which Shadow did not go), she's much nicer, more mature and more understanding than she was in the book.

* SpeakIllOfTheDead: Audrey is furious about Robbie and Laura's betrayal, with the wounds only days-old. She even pisses on Robbie's grave, and it's hard to blame her. She probably would have done something similar to Laura's grave, were Shadow not right there.

* WomanScorned: Though her husband's already dead, she still offers to give Shadow a blow-job in the cemetery "right in front of them" to get back at them both. [[spoiler:Upon coming BackFromTheDead, Laura admits it was fair after what they had been doing.]]

* AdaptationalCurves: In the book, Salim is described as "plump" and it is explained that his diet of American fast-food is making him heavier and rounder by the day. The same couldn't be said for Omid Abtahi.

* SparedByTheAdaptation: Late into the book, a throwaway line implies that he was killed as collateral damage in the war between the Old and New Gods. He had switched identities with the Jinn who returned to the Middle East with Salim mistakingly killed by the New Gods.

* RomanticismVersusEnlightenment: Very much in the "Enlightenment" camp while his father was the romanticist. While his father taught him Bach, the composer's work giving him faith in humanity, the CEO deconstructed Bach's technique into algorithms, created his own compositions on the computer. [[spoiler:It was this faith in technology over human ingenuity that led to Technical Boy's creation.]]
