* AwesomeMcCoolName: It is entirely appropriate to refer to her as ''Doctor Dragon.''
* {{Determinator}}: Her study of occult Lore got her kicked out of her respectable university job, but that didn't stop her from pursuing her studies, which is how she wound up at the Suppression Bureau.
* ThePolyanna: As a Hunter with the Idealist Aspect, she can't be driven insane with Dread or Winter-Aspected Lore. However, Lantern-Aspected Lore and Fascination have a much higher chance to affect her.

* {{Determinator}}: She starts with both the Tenacious Aspect, which makes all attacks against her have a one-in-three chance to fail, even when they'd normally succeed. She also has the Mystic Aspect, which makes her essentially immune to creatures from the Mansus. In short, she is very, ''very'' hard to kill.

* AwesomenessbyAnalysis: Like Doctor Natalia Dragon, he is Meticulous, which means he always produces Evidence when he finds Notoriety. You need to be extra careful when doing anything shady while he's hunting you.

* BatDeduction: How it's implied he manages to produce Evidence even without Notoriety to work from.
* CowboyCop: Indicated by the Erratic Aspect. While he's more likely to fail to create Evidence from Notoriety, he also has the chance to create Evidence ''even without Notoriety.''
* RenaissanceMan: Has had a collection of jobs, and though he has seemed reasonably competent at all of them, he was too Erratic to stay on any one job long.

* AnIcePerson: While she lacks any special magic powers, as far as we can see, she appears to venerate the Sun-In-Rags, and leaves behind a Winter-Aspected Influence wherever she goes.
* CreepyCute: She speaks in a cute, childlike manner, but requests Commissions on Knock and Winter Lore- the Lores most commonly associated with loss, sacrifice and death.
* DealWithTheDevil: The first time you meet her, she promises to give you support so long as you introduce her to someone who will "end things properly." If you accept her bargain, she'll give you a whopping ''ten'' Funds, along with a Silver Spintria, but after a certain period of time, you'll need to give her one of your cultists as a sacrifice. Otherwise, you'll get a NonStandardGameOver.
** Once you do that, however, she becomes like all the other patrons, exchanging Commissions for Spintrias.

** Fucine, supposedly spoken "east of the lost lake Fucino." Sometimes called "the dry tongue" or "the tongue of witches." Based partly on Latin.
** Deep Mandaic, "the most secret script of the deep sects of the deep desert." Said to have been spoken by the Shadowless Kings and by the Mother Of Ants. Based partly on Aramaic.
** Phrygian, "the tongue in which the Thunderskin pleaded, at his ascension." Based partly on Greek.
** Vak, the first tongue, spoken by the Hours, which is both a language and a living entity. You can "meet" "her" by crossing the Peacock Door.
* FromNobodyToNightmare
* HumanoidAbomination: Following any of the paths to Ascension will gradually transform you into something that barely resembles a human being- and fully Ascending to the Mansus will transform you into a Long, completely shedding your humanity in the process.
* ImAHumanitarian: On both the Enlightenment and Sensation paths, the only way to increase your Marks (and thus get closer to victory) is to consume people- spiritually and psychologically for Enlightenment, physically for Sensation.
* ImmortalityImmorality: There are few things the Player Character and their cultists would not be willing to do for the sake of Ascending to the Mansus.
* ImmortalitySeeker: The end goal of the paths of Ascension is to become one of the Long, making yourself immortal in the process.
* InstantWinCondition: If you achieve a Senior Position at Glover & Glover, you can commit Passion to dedicate your life to your mundane work, abandoning your life as a cultist. Given the tone, however, it's treated more like a NonStandardGameOver.
* LegacyCharacter: Each successive game is an inheritor, literally or figuratively, of the previous game, whether that person ultimately ascended to the Mansus or not.

* InstantWinCondition: If they successfully arrest and prosecute the Troublemaker, they get a Favour from Authority which they can trade for a Promotion, which is considered a minor victory. However, given the tone of the ending, this is treated more as a NonStandardGameOver.
* MagikarpPower: The Troublemaker is initially just a useless character taking up space on the playing table. If you can wait around until you can gather enough of your Aspect to Exalt followers, however, you can Exalt them as a part of your cult as well, even if they don't share your Cult's Aspect.
