* LaughablyEvil: Some of his lines would sound appropriate coming from SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker.

* AxCrazy: He was like this ''before'' turning out to be a PsychoPrototype, as signs of his Craft persona began to resurface, culminating in [[spoiler: Whiskey's face being slashed.]] He even calls his cuts art!

* PsychoPrototype: The Dollhouse at one point offered freedom to prisoners in exchange for their service as a Doll. Thus, Carl William Craft became Alpha, though some of his crazy and psychotic tendencies began resurfacing, such as randomly kissing Echo mid-sentence or stabbing [[spoiler: Whiskey]] with bonsai clips. Eventually he had to be mindwiped for the latter event, but Alpha went mad and kicked his handler into a computer, causing the composite event and the carnage that followed it.
* SerialKiller: And that was ''before'' he became an AxCrazy doll.

* StalkerWithACrush: For some reason is fanatically infatuated with Echo. Heck, he was the cause of Echo remembering many of her past personas (even labeling her as the Omega to his Alpha) and later on, slaughtered several men she was in a "relationship" with out of jealousy, even going so far as to [[spoiler:''steal Ballard's personality and imprint it on himself'' to try and understand why Echo loved Ballard and not him.]] He goes to such lengths for that woman.
* TalkingToThemself: Played with. Very blatant in the car scene and in his SupervillainLair, where his other personas begin to chime in and urge Alpha to tell Echo the truth. He gives in and eventually does...FromACertainPointOfView. The page quote comes from when he was threatening to blow [[spoiler: Caroline's wedge]] to kingdom come. Surprisingly, this aspect of him wasn't seen ''at all'' in his (onscreen) debut episode, but come the first season finale it's brought to the forefront. Of course, it's [[{{Downplayed}} pulled back a bit]] in his Season 2 guest appearance.
* {{Ubermensch}}: He refers to himself as this. It doesn't help his case when trying to sway Echo, or as he calls her, Omega.

* DeadPersonImpersonation: He impersonates [[spoiler:Stephen Kepler in [[Recap/DollhouseS01E11 Briar Rose]]]], when he had in fact murdered [[spoiler:Stephen Kepler]] three days before.

* IHatePastMe: Interestingly played with. One of his first acts as a Rogue (after killing several people) was to destroy the wedge that held his murderous original personality. Could make him a {{Hypocrite}}, since he went on a silent murder spree of his own afterwards hidden from the Dollhouse's prying eyes. An implied reason is that he hated Carl Craft because he went into his AGodAmI perspective after the composite event, making him "better". [[spoiler: Played straight, however, in ''Epitaph Two'', since he was afraid of Carl Craft awakening after he helped liberate the other Dolls, prompting his exit.]]

* ManipulativeBastard: Sent information about the Dollhouse to Ballard, causing him to write up a whole conspiracy about it and get him in on the case, [[spoiler: culminating in Ballard sneaking in Alpha (who was posing as Stephen Kepler, a designer of the Dollhouse), all to get to Echo.]] He also showed signs of this as he [[spoiler: uploaded Sierra with a mind virus that would [[HatePlague spread to any other Doll who sat in the mindwiping chair after]], resulting in the Actives [[BerserkMode violently attacking their handlers]] while he looked on and chuckled to himself.]]

* ManipulativeBastard: Sent information about the Dollhouse to Ballard, causing him to write up a whole conspiracy about it and get him in on the case, [[spoiler: culminating in Ballard sneaking in Alpha (who was posing as Stephen Kepler, a designer of the Dollhouse), all to get to Echo.]] He also showed signs of this as he [[spoiler: uploaded Sierra with a mind virus that would spread to any other Doll who sat in the mindwiping chair after, resulting in the Actives [[BerserkerMode violently attacking their handlers]] while he looked on and chuckled to himself.]]

* [[Archenemy]]: To the primarily featured Dollhouse, Echo and Adelle in particular.

* GreaterScopeVillain: For most of Season 1, since [[spoiler: Alpha didn't get his hands dirty with the Dollhouse itself until the finale, but on the other hand]] he fed information about the Dollhouse to Ballard. More apparent in Season 2 [[spoiler: because Alpha was responsible for reawakening all the other personas within Echo in the Season 1 finale, thus causing the erratic events in the second season that led up to her being imprisoned.]] Though he makes a guest appearance in said season, his direct involvement with the plot ends there.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Hinted at in ''Epitaph One'' when Caroline tells Claire that no one has been wiped at Safe Haven, thanks to Alpha. And confirmed in "Epitaph 2: The Return".]]

* ManipulativeBastard: Sent information about the Dollhouse to Ballard, causing him to write up a whole conspiracy about it and get him in on the case, [[spoiler: culminating in Ballard sneaking in Alpha (who was posing as Stephen Kepler, a designer of the Dollhouse), all to get to Echo.]] He also showed signs of this as he [[spoiler: uploaded Sierra with a mind virus that would spread to anyone who sat in the mindwiping chair, resulting in the Dolls violently attacking their handlers while he looked on and chuckled to himself.]]

* TalkingToThemself: Especially shown in the car scene, where his other personas begin to chime in and urge Alpha to tell Echo the truth. He does...FromACertainPointOfView. The page quote comes from when he was threatening to blow [[spoiler: Caroline's wedge]] to kingdom come.
