* TakenForGranite: [[spoiler: The only thing left after their true selves go to the dreamscape and meet their demise is their physical bodies, transformed into stone statues.]]



* TheSociopath: The entire group (maybe even Sally, the softest of them all as suggested in "Nightbandits") fits this trope. A example connected to them is a mural hidden in the Rosenqueen Palace, about them looking down at three people being killed in different ways, while ''sadistically grinning''.
* StandardEvilOrganizationSquad: A variation. Ten dream demons that are working together on their omnious objectives.
* TooKinkyToTorture: Zalgo does abuse of Chara's body while possesing it, but while it's damaging enough for a deconstruction to be invoked in the showdown agains't Frisk, it's apparently less worse than the abuse Bill inflicted on Dipper, since Chara stated that she had to lay in bed and sleep a whole weekend, instead of stating she had to go to a hospital.
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: [[spoiler:Their ultimate goal, as revealed by Garnet in "Frisk and The Secret World", is merge their realm with Earth, starting a apocalypse.]]

** Before the group goes away in "Nightbandits", Ben Drowned warns to Chara and friends about a incoming day in the future.

* VileVillainSaccharineShow: The story itself is a goofy concept over a fun adventure-with-SliceOfLife series. Then, the Zodiac Demons come in and, like the TricksterGod they collectively replace, proceed to turn it into hell.



* VillainHasAPoint: Yes, Zalgo was pretty cruel to Chara just to gain her trust in "Friendship Ever After: A Doll Musical". But yes, Frisk, even unconsciously, had some selfish facets on her personality.



* WouldHurtAChild: Being a child is definitively not one of the steps to be safe from them.
* YoureCuteWhenYoureAngry: Oddly Averted with Zalgo in "Friendship Ever After: A Doll Musical". He states that he hates when Chara is mad right after the latter tries to attack him [[ThickerThanWater because he and the rest of his group hurted her family]].

* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry: Demonstrated in "Nightbandits"; after losing their deal with Peridot, the Zodiac Demons stare down Frisk, Asriel, and the Bendy trio, and decide to shed off any remnant of mercy they might've given to them, murdering the cartoonish trio [[TakingTheBullet when they got on their way]] and then zombifying Frisk when she badmouthed them.

* FauxAffablyEvil: They all Zig-Zag around this trope. They act friendly and playful towards Peridot, their summoner, and do the same to Chara while first invading her dream in "Friendship Ever After: A Doll Musical" (Zalgo in particular acts...[[AmbiguousSituation ambiguously]] [[NoYay flirty]] towards Chara). When the deal between them and Peridot is broken, however...they [[BerserkButton descend into downright murderous rage]].

* TheFace: Altrough they do have their dialogue lines, Zalgo is by far the most talkative member of the Zodiac Demons.

** [[spoiler: Their collective, well-earned demise inside Pearl's mind. Were they finally killed, or they are in a weak state? The story heavily lends to the former, especially because of their death, but the fact their major articles of clothing are left unscratched and Pearl's mind is not completely erased is suspicious.]]

* ArchEnemy:
** They're not fans of Athena, Eros' superior during "Terrorcalypse - Part 1". It gets nasty enough that they insult her verbally before killing her.
** The Dreemurr family. Garnet hates them for manipulating her into building a gateway from their world to Earth, Chara and Frisk hate them for invading Pearl's mind, and the GrandFinale proves Pearl hates them for being a danger not only to her family, but to Inside Falls as a whole.
* AxCrazy: They do not hit well on their heads, to put it simply.



* BaitTheDog: Sure, they're noted in-Universe to look unsettling at best and terrifying at worst, but they initially feel like a goofy gang. That doesn't last long.
* BerserkButton:
** Losing a deal is enough to set them on a [[VillainousBreakdown murderous rage]]. Best shown when Peridot breaks her deal with them and when Garnet promises to shut down the portal. They threaten the latter with ''death''.



* BewareTheSillyOnes: A group of demons that are not hitting well in their head and probably are [[PerpetualSmiler perpetually smiling]] in a pretty goofy way...and dangerous assasin monsters that will abuse and use anyone they can to achieve their objectives.

* CarnivalOfKillers: But different of the overall trope, they're not targeting a single character (unless someone who is brave/a fool decides to get in the way of their plans). They're only targeting a single goal that [[VaguenessIsComing for now is unknown]].

* CardCarryingVillain: Try to call them out on their evil ways (whenever they're just aiding another villain or acting on their own volition)? Too bad. They're aware of their insanity and even proclaim they're made of it.

A group of ten demons that wander inside the dreams. Their first meeting with the Crystal Shack gang involved them being tasked by Peridot to steal a memory involving the deed of the Crystal Shack, but a cryptic message left behind by one of them makes it suspectful if it really would be the last time they would see them all.

--> [...] Now you understand what I and my fellow demons dialy go trough.
* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Played straight with Sally, Jeff, Laughing Jack, Lost Silver, Ben Drowned, Eyeless Jack and Kagekao, since all of them change from, respectively, a human ghost, a human SerialKiller, a cosmic entity of sorts, a video game character, a ghost possesing a video game, a unclear creature and a japanese demon, to {{Eldritch Abomination}}'s. Since Zalgo, Slenderman and Sonic.exe were already eldritch abominations of their own, this trope is Averted for them.
* AdaptationalVillainy: Sally Williams switchs from a sad ghost of a little girl to a EldritchAbomination. Even then, she comes the closest to be the group's TokenGoodTeammate, since she ask's Slenderman to do something to make Frisk happy after the former eats and then spits the latter.
