* TheGenericGuy: Compared to Kait and JD, Del doesn't really get a lot besides his interactions with other characters and his BlackAndNerdy engineer capabilities, and doesn't even have much backstory besides being childhood friends with JD, all but unofficially getting adopted by the Fenix family, and deserting the COG alongside JD. His role is almost entirely to be the OnlySaneMan for everyone else to play off of.

* TrueCompanions: Even when Kait's mysteriously freaking out, carrying a Locust symbol and has JD paranoid about her, Del doesn't let his trust waver in her for a second as the pair become FireForgedFriends. He's also this with JD, albeit not quite as pronounced as the two are already almost always with each other as ChildhoodFriends.
