!!''[[NeckSnap Oh Snap!]]''
A former Crimson Lance assassin, who escaped to help the Vault Hunters loot Knoxx's armory. She would later become one of Handsome Jack's lieutenants in his rise to power.
----
* BadassInDistress: Needs to be rescued from Mr. Shank's prison. (They stole her teleporter.) She doesn't seem to mind it ''too'' much, though.
-->'''Athena:''' But to be honest, mostly they just wanted to do my nails and talk about boys all the time. I almost sort of liked it here.
* CatchPhrase: "Athena, out."
* TheComicallySerious: During the Knoxx DLC, her stone-faced approach to everything that happens (from concealing her transmissions in male virility advertisements to her suicidally annoyed boss to the Atlas corporation's psychopathically upbeat PR-style) ensure comedy, even though she never cracks so much as a smirk.
* CounterAttack: The more damage her Aspis absorbs, the more powerful it becomes when tossed.
* DefectorFromDecadence: From the Crimson Lance. However, afterwards she would go on to put Handsome Jack in power.
* TheFaceless: To begin with.
* HealingShiv: In the Pre-Sequel, she can revive teammates by throwing her shield at them.
* HeroesPreferSwords: Her melee weapon in the Pre-Sequel is a Xiphos.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: In the Pre-Sequel, she uses a Kinetic Aspis, a shield that absorbs damage and can be tossed at enemies.
* MissionControl: In the Knoxx DLC.
* NeckSnap: Performs one on her prison guard.
* PlayingWithFire[=/=]ShockAndAwe: Her Ceraunic Storm skill tree is focused on dealing Incendiary and Shock damage and uses a stacking mechanic similar to Gaige's Anarchy and Krieg's Bloodlust.
* PromotedToPlayable: She's one of the playable characters of ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel''.
* TheStoic: Very serious and to-the-point, for the most part.
* ThrowingYourShieldAlwaysWorks: Her Aspis in the Pre-Sequel can be tossed out ComicBook/CaptainAmerica style. It can eventually be upgraded so that [[PinballProjectile it bounces off of multiple enemies before coming back to her]]. Jack even lampshades this in a trailer, noting that she's just like someone who rhymes with "Schmaptian Schmamerica".
* TokenGoodTeammate: In the Pre-Sequel, Athena is the most moral and stable of the playable characters and serves as a foil to the others (especially Wilhelm and Nisha).
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: At some point after the first game, she was hired by Handsome Jack and was instrumental in his rise to power.

!Wilhelm the Enforcer
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToddHaberkorn
Wilhelm is a Hyperion cyborg who [[TheDragon serves]] [[BigBad Handsome Jack]], and who nearly defeated the original Vault Hunters after the events of Borderlands. He was also one of his chief lieutenants in Jack's rise to power.
----
* AscendedExtra: In ''Borderlands 2'', Wilhelm barely had any characterization beyond being Jack's main enforcer, and he shows up in-game as a relatively easy boss. In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'' he gets [[PromotedToPlayable promoted to playable]], and it's detailed how he went from a mercenary to Jack's [[TheDragon dragon]].
* CallBack: His action skill in ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'' is to call out two flying drones, which can both attack and heal him. This is a reference to him doing the same thing when you fight him as a boss in ''Borderlands 2''.
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', he starts off as mostly human save for a cybernetic eye. As he levels up and takes certain skills in the Cyber Commando skill tree, he gains more cybernetic parts and his voice changes, slowly but surely becoming the monstrosity seen in Borderlands 2.
* DesperationAttack: His "Termination Protocols" skill in ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', where his Fight For Your Life mode is replaced with him slowly walking towards his enemies while emitting electricity until he either kills someone or self-destructs in a nuclear explosion. There's also his Vengeance Cannon, which activates when he's at low health.
* DoNotRunWithAGun: Averted in ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', where the Shock Absorbers skill gives him cybernetic legs that let him shoot while sprinting.
* {{Expy}}: In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', he looks like a cyborg ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}.
* TheDragon: To Handsome Jack.
* TheDreaded: He is feared by both Angel and the Crimson Raiders. When you finally face him, Roland and Lilith tell you to run. His backstory in ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'' states that he was a galaxy-famous mercenary prior to working for Jack.
* DroneDeployer: He can launch Surveyors to give him shields as well as to repair him. In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', his action skill lets him deploy two drones: Wolf, who attacks his enemies and Saint, who heals him.
* MookLieutenant: In Borderlands 2, he's pretty much a regular henchman, but serves as Jack's [[TheDragon Dragon]] in the story.
* OneManArmy: Is stated to have single handedly won the battle of New Haven for Hyperion and defeated all of the four original Vault Hunters without breaking a sweat.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: He only agreed to worked for Jack because he was promised the finest cybernetics from Hyperion. As such, he generally takes a detached and professional stance towards any morally-questionable thing asked of him.
* PistolWhipping: His basic melee attack in ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'' is to hit people with the butt of his gun.
* PowerFist: One of his skills in ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'' is actually called this. It gives him a pneumatic fist that lets him toss out an explosive punch.
* PromotedToPlayable: In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel''.
* ShoulderCannon: In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', he can be upgraded to have a Vengeance Cannon that activates when he's at low health.
* ThisCannotBe: How he reacts to losing a fight against the player characters. "This is literally impossible!"
* VoiceOfTheLegion: In ''Videogame/BorderlandsThePreSequel'', the more he upgrades himself with cybernetics, the deeper and more distorted his voice becomes.
* WorfHadTheFlu: According to dialog that was accidentally left out of the game, [[spoiler:not only did he volunteer to lose to the Vault Hunters, Jack had him poisoned prior to his boss battle.]]

* BreakingTheFourthWall: Out of necessity. In the second game, he has a "secret stash" that lets him transfer items between "My minions that ''you'' control. (Look, it's for twinking items between your characters)".
* ButtMonkey:
** He spends most of the second game after the intro getting either ignored or verbally abused by the majority of Sanctuary's citizens.
** The intro isn't any easier on him. In the span of about two hours, [[EyeScream he has his eye ripped out]], falls off a cliff, [[ElectricTorture gets electrocuted]], [[StuffBlowingUp gets blown up by a massive artillery cannon]], and gets [[ColdBloodedTorture used as a torture doll]] by a bandit leader. This being ''Borderlands'', it's all played for laughs.
** During the quest to reclaim his ship, a group of pirates proceed to beat Claptrap, while he suggests that they instead talk it out. While showing them a hypothetical of how such a conversation would go, Claptrap inadvertently convinces himself that ''the very people beating him have the moral high ground'' since he doesn't actually feel pain and hitting him makes the pirates feel better. That's right, Claptrap convinces himself that he should be beaten up.
* CantUseStairs: In the second game, this is pointed out, and the player is forced to use a crane to hoist him. Averted in the Pre-Sequel however.
* CatchPhrase: "Greetings, traveller!"
** " Aannnnnddd... open!"
* CurseCutShort: An Out of Game example. Claptrap won the award for Best Character at the 10th annual Spike Video Game Awards. During his introduction, he casually strolled through his room and repaints himself into a tuxedo and top hat while giving his thanks for just being nominated, though he hoped that he would win too. At the end though, he rushes towards the camera, ready to flip off the audience.

* CyberCyclops: And it gets torn out once.
* DelinquentHair: A mission in ''Borderlands 2'' gives the player the option to give him Bullymong fur... so he can turn it into a mohawk.
* DittoFighter: In the Pre-Sequel, several of his [=VaultHunter.exe=] abilities are taken from the Borderlands 2 characters. He can toss out a turret like Axton, gunzerk like Salvador, toss out a minion with Maya's Blight Phoenix power, enter a state similar to Gaige's Anarchy, toss out a decoy like Zer0 and go into Buzz-Axe Rampage like Krieg. During this state, Claptrap also gains thefemale soldier character's most distinctive traits, such as Salvador's beard and mohawk, Krieg's mask or [[FanDisservice Maya's tights]].
* RandomEffectSpell: "[=VaultHunter.exe=]" gives Claptrap one of numerous abilities when activated by analysing the battlefield and determining which is most suited for the situation. Some are good, some are... not. You won't know until you activate it. At least you're guaranteed full health and health regen no matter what though.
** '''''F'''unserker'': Claptrap gains the ability to dual-wield his guns while also causing him and and his allies to fire uncontrollably.
** ''Mechromagician'': Increases your damage while also decreasing your accuracy.
** ''Gun Wizard'': Gives you and the team a massive increase in fire rate and reload time.
** ''Torgue Fiesta'': Causes Claptrap and his allies to toss out grenades uncontrollably, with the potential of [[FriendlyFire causing a party wipe]].
** ''Laser Inferno'': Summons a disco ball that fires lasers in every direction in the surrounding area.
** ''Shhhhhhhhhh...trap'': Tosses out a decoy while also turning invisible.
** ''One Shot Wonder'': Fires all the bullets in your magazine every time you shoot.
** ''Rubber Ducky'': Claptrap and other players dons a rubber ducky innertube, granting increased jumping distance.
** ''Miniontrap'': Tosses out a miniature Claptrap that acts as a turret.
** ''Pirate Ship Mode'': Claptrap whips out four giant cannons that [[MickeyMousing fire in tune with the 1812 Overture]].
** ''Clap in the Box'': Claptrap runs around with a CartoonBomb that explodes after a period of time.
** ''Blightbot'': Claptrap summons a minion with Maya's Blight Phoenix power that flies around applying elemental damage to everyone.
** ''Meat Unicycle'': Pulling out a giant buzz-axe, Claptrap temporarily channels Krieg and goes on a melee rampage.
* EyeSpy: How he finds his stolen eye mentioned earlier, though he has to be within range.
* GemEncrusted: In Episode 4 of his web series, he claims to own a toilet seat made out of diamonds. He can't use it because he's three feet tall and can't reach the seat, but he likes having it. Also, no bowel system.
* GuestFighter: He's one of the four main characters in Telltale Games' ''VideoGame/PokerNight2''. Depending on whether or not he puts collateral in, you can win Handsome Jack's mask for [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Spy]] if you're on PC, a Bloodwing item for your Xbox LIVE avatar if you're on Xbox, or a dynamic theme for your PS3 involving him crossed-over with the other characters playing poker, such as running away from''Film/TheFifthElement'' an alien tractor beam with [[VideoGame/SamAndMaxFreelancePolice Sam]], or giving a rose to [=GLaDOS=] from Portal.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Steve the Bandit, according to his web series and ''VideoGame/PokerNight2''. [=GlaDOS=] even refers to Steve as Claptrap's best friend.
* InvisibilityCloak: Part of an upgrade in the second game that lets him sneak past Hyperion's "Competitor Deterrence Field." Of course, he really doesn't need it, since he is technically Hyperion technology and not organic.
** FridgeBrilliance: It's not to protect him from the death wall, just to keep guards or turrets from shooting him after he walks through it (so he can drop the wall to let the Vault Hunters through).
* KickThemWhileTheyreDown: The name of one of his skills in the Pre-Sequel, in which he draws aggro while in Fight For Your Life mode.
* LastOfHisKind:
** As of ''Borderlands 2'', he is the last robot of his kind in existence thanks to Handsome Jack.
** He discovers transmissions from another Claptrap unit in ''Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt''. [[spoiler:[[YankTheDogsChain It's dead.]] And it exploded, so there's no chance it can be repaired.]]
* LongList: His list of weaknesses; see WeaksauceWeakness below.
* MasterOfUnlocking:
** A mild example. Claptraps guard the gates to new areas of the world, and must grant the player access for them to continue.
** In the sequel, Claptrap finds himself in this role once more, this time because his compatibility with Hyperion technology means he's the only one on the Crimson Raiders' side who can bypass Hyperion security, at least with the proper upgrades. In fact, this is probably why Handsome Jack discontinued the [=CL4P-TP=] model and had every unit he could find dismantled. That and, well, [[RobotWar the Robolution.]]
* MachineWorship: [[spoiler:A group of savages in the ''Borderlands 2'' DLC "Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt" worship Claptrap... until he insults Handsome Jack, whom they also worship.]]
* NiceGuy: He ''tries'' to be this way to the people of Sanctuary, often being friendly and complimenting their clothes. Unfortunately for him, he just comes off as supremely annoying to everyone around him.
* OnePersonBirthdayParty: The sidequest "Claptrap's Birthday Bash" involves delivering invitations to people for Claptrap's birthday. None of the guests accept the invitation, so you end up alone with Claptrap. With the decorations he set up. And boxes of pizza. It's sad.
* OneWheeledWonder: Claptraps move around via a single wheel. While they're capable of being mobile, they're less capable when it comes to stairs.
* PromotedToPlayable: In the Pre-Sequel, Claptrap is one of the playable characters.
* RobotBuddy:
** [[DeconstructedTrope Deconstructed]] to a degree. The player characters bear no ill will towards the Claptraps, but both the bandits and Lance do. There are multiple side quests involving Claptrap repair, since people tend to use them as target practice. In the ''Robot Revolution'' DLC, Interplanetary Ninja Assassin Claptrap goes mad and starts a robot revolution in retaliation for all the mistreatment.
** [[spoiler:The irony behind this is that themilitary tried Claptrap in question was created to set up Korban kill the Vault Hunters, who in turn might be the only people on Pandora willing to repair and treat Claptraps well.]]
** In the second game, however, Claptrap is treated as a SmallAnnoyingCreature whose main use is his ability to bypass Hyperion security.
* TheScrappy: [[invoked]]
** In-universe example. The various Vault Hunters and The Guardian Angel are the only people that treat him with anything resembling civility. Everyone else sees him as a tool (both senses of the word) or as a complete annoyance.
** ''Tiny Tina's Assault On Dragon Keep'' forms a running gag that whenever Claptrap says ''anything'', he completely ruins the moment, much to the expressed sighs of everyone who hears him. In fact, because of this, we can probably remove most of the Vault Hunters from the list of people who treat Claptrap with civility, which limits it to just Roland and the Guardian Angel. [[spoiler:And those two are both dead]].
