* EyepatchOfPower: Inverted. [[spoiler: {{Eyepatch Of|Power}} DePower. Hides and seals his mismatched eye the symbol of his magic.]] See also: PeekABangs



* PeekABangs: After the appearance of [[spoiler: Fake!]]Sarah and in {{Dream Sequence}}s his hair hides his eye or eyepatch. (Works well with concealment, shyness, vulnerability (he was never this weak and vulnerable in his whole life) and the supernatural interpretation of the trope.)

* AnIcePerson: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-211-Bundled-271356167 Her son knows]].
* BerserkButton: Mentioning the fact that she was defeated by children is ''not'' wise.
* [[spoiler: BigBad: In ''Such Stuff As Dreams Are Made On''.]]
* CardCarryingVillain: She is evil, knows she is evil and [[EvilCannotComprehendGood doesn't see any use in love or anything like it]]... she sees his ex's attempts to give their son more normal motivations as [[LoveIsAWeakness weakness]]. If there is Evil [[WithACapitalT with a capital E]] around here she is it.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Why is this [[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove love thing]] so important for her son anyway?
* EvilMatriarch: No wonder her son would do a whole lot to keep her away.
* KnightOfCerebus: Not strictly a villain (even if she ''is'' the evilest character here) because the series is quite blurry on the concept but her (and her ex's) arrival marked the beginning of a lot darker stories.
* MightMakesRight: She believes this with all her heart... if she has one.
* WinterRoyalLady: As literally as it gets.
* WitchWithACapitalB: This insult is pretty much reserved for her. [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-133-Forsaken-184751515 Here]] it's the very first thing her ex says to her and also the first thing he says in the comic.

[[caption-width-right:250:FairFolk [[OnlyInItForTheMoney for hire]]]]

* TheFairFolk: Quite probably. Has all the physical characteristics to qualify as a pure blooded fae in the series (namely: PointyEars and MonochromaticEyes) and called Jareth "one of us".
* FemmeFatale
* MasculineLinesFeminineCurves: A weird subversion. Ashe's style to draw women tends to be highly (many times impossibly) curvy and this didn't change but "Odile" also has a '''lot''' of sharp lines (more than most if not all male characters) which gives her a "living crystal" look.
* MistakenDeclarationOfLove / MagicKiss: [[spoiler: Seems like accepting "Odile"'s ''hand / answer'' when you're calling out for your true love [[{{Geas}} magically binds you]] to her.]]
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: [[WordOfGod Word of Ashe]] that she is a mercenary.
* PowerFloats: She was seen to defy gravity at will.
* WaifFu: She is comparatively small and looks fragile but has uncanny (maybe magic enhanced) reflexes and fights barehanded... can fight three armed BadassNormal characters simultaneously without problem. Later revealed that they just stalled her, but it's still impressive.

'''"Odile"''' (Jadis' minion. Probably not ''that'' [[Theatre/SwanLake Odile]] but the alias fits.)

[[caption-width-right:250:FairFolk [[OnlyInItForTheMoney for hire]]]]

* TheFairFolk: Quite probably. Has all the physical characteristics to qualify as a pure blooded fae in the series (namely: PointyEars and MonochromaticEyes) and called Jareth "one of us".
* FemmeFatale
* MasculineLinesFeminineCurves: A weird subversion. Ashe's style to draw women tends to be highly (many times impossibly) curvy and this didn't change but "Odile" also has a '''lot''' of sharp lines (more than most if not all male characters) which gives her a "living crystal" look.
* MistakenDeclarationOfLove / MagicKiss: [[spoiler: Seems like accepting "Odile"'s ''hand / answer'' when you're calling out for your true love [[{{Geas}} magically binds you]] to her.]]
* PowerFloats: She was seen to defy gravity at will.
* WaifFu: She is comparatively small and looks fragile but has uncanny (maybe magic enhanced) reflexes and fights barehanded... can fight three armed BadassNormal characters simultaneously without problem. Later revealed that they just stalled her, but it's still impressive.

''Webcomic/{{Roommates}}'' has LotsAndLotsOfCharacters and cameos (more than 100)... this list is far from complete. And can be quite '''spoilerific'''.

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Tropes for Everybody]]

* CompositeCharacter: Most characters who have more than one canonical story. This is an out of canon world where all have an impact... to date poor Morgan suffers the worst effect (this is why it's repeated in her trope listing).
* DysfunctionalFamily: Every character (presumably) has one except those stated otherwise (Like Erik is ConvenientlyAnOrphan, and Jareth is... [[BigScrewedUpFamily well]] [[TangledFamilyTree beyond]] this trope).
* FantasticallyIndifferent: After the characters go native.
** Like Erik not flinching at all when the Zombies knocked on the window... ok, in his case [[TheInsomniac sleep deprivation]] was also a factor.
** Also common fan theory is that the "BiggerOnTheInside" joke about the TARDIS wasn't used because for James this just meant "it's like Jareth's wardrobe".
* TheFourLoves: The primary motivation of most characters (not Jadis' but she is the exception not the rule). Best seen in the case of Jareth because he sucks in showing it but still tries [[StopHelpingMe exceptionally hard]].
* MetaGuy: Everybody seems to be around this level of MediumAwareness. (Except stated otherwise)
* VagueAge: Age is a bit of a vague concept in this 'verse. As a general rule characters are the same age as they where in the canonical story but then ActorAllusion (like Erik's MerlinSickness), the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality (Sarah and Toby are 5 or so years older because plot says so) and the like hits.

* WithFriendsLikeThese: Almost anybody to almost everybody.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatPerks: All powerful characters, most of the time. This is an out of canon world and most characters are determined to enjoy it. The fact helps that the place has the ''GirlsNextDoor'' named [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption Fail-Field]].

[[caption-width-right:300:Top: In his natural state. Bottom: When he switches on the {{badass}}.]]

* AdorableEvilMinions: He is still the King Of The Goblins!
* BerserkButton: Don't you '''dare''' threaten his ''friends''. [[spoiler: Not to mention using his dark side to kill one of them.]]
* CannotDream: Or at least he [[DownPlayedTrope rarely]] dreams. Seems to be a side effect of being a DreamWeaver and/or FairFolk, or at least this bit CrypticConversation suggests something like that:
--> '''Jareth''': "I'm not used to being a dreamer."
--> '''Javert''': "Really? You, who all but lives in them?"
--> '''Jareth''': "Fish don't drink."
* CantArgueWithElves: Technically he isn't an elf but you can't argue with him anyway, or to be precise you can, it's just [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers futile]].
* DavidBowie: For the sake of ActorAllusion jokes.
* {{Determinator}}: You probably couldn't really tell from how he normally [[{{keet}} acts]] but this guy is [[YouCantFightFate trying]] to [[ScrewDestiny change his fate]] since [[ReallySevenhundredYearsOld a really long time]].
* EthicalSlut: He is an equal opportunity and generally tolerant guy, despite his sexuality being (as much as we can tell that is) {{Single Target|Sexuality}}.
* EverythingsBetterWithSparkles: He thinks so... Erik, [[BerserkButton not so much]].
* ExpressiveEars: It's not clear yet if this is a family trait or not.
* TheFairFolk: Thanks to the [[TangledFamilyTree magic family tree]] he is even related to all of them (and the whole WitchSpecies).
* AFriendInNeed / [[StopHelpingMe Jareth. Please. Please! PLEASE!!! Stop Helping Us!]]: He is. He genuinely cares for his friends (random mortals probably not so much), would risk all... but given how ''bad'' he is in doing good he is the personification of the WithFriendsLikeThese principle.
* HeroWithAnFInGood / VillainBallMagnet: He is almost perfectly in the middle of these tropes. He has great intentions but is either misguided or misunderstood. [[spoiler: Because of the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality his wish to be [[{{Heroes}} the good guy]] is maybe a TragicDream.]]
* HiddenBadass: On several levels. He is an incredibly powerful [[TheFairFolk greater fae]] who can kick ass or warp [[TimeMaster time]] and [[SpaceMaster space]], manipulate [[LaserGuidedAmnesia mem]][[CharacterRerailment ories]] and [[DreamWeaver dreams]] and more. Has a SuperpoweredEvilSide. But normally is FriendToAllChildren. And also:
** AgentPeacock: Even more than canonically, he is [[{{Pride}} proud]] and [[VanityIsFeminine vain]] and known to suffer [[VillainousBreakdown breakdowns]] when he notices that others are [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-15-Tall-67361588 taller]][[hottip:*:(He is the only one NOT ridiculously tall from the main cast, but he can float!)]] or [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-13-Flush-66111403 thinner]] than him.
** BewareTheSillyOnes: Let's see he seems like a {{keet}}, [[DumbBlonde blond]], [[TheTrickster prankster]] with [[FearlessFool questionable level of self-preservation instinct]] who [[ItAmusedMe only wants to have fun]].
** TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler: He accepted his darker nature after the ''Dark!Jareth arc'', which resulted in much stronger magic. It also manifests in a lot of different side effects like a BattleAura ([[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-196-Power-Play-265228145 here]]), more frequent GlowingEyesOfDoom, his CrystalBall changing form, flashier InstantRunes sometimes even a partial or full TransformationSequence ([[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-187-Reflexes-259633618 here]])]]
* HumanMomNonhumanDad: [[DownPlayedTrope As much as]] Highly Powerful LastOfHerKind WitchSpecies mom and Close To [[SupernaturalElite Pure Blooded]] FairFolk dad counts.
* IdeaBulb: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-13-Flush-66111403 Idea crystal]]!
* ImpossiblyTackyClothes / RummageSaleReject: There is a reason WHY the others don't approve his [[ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction instant]] [[InstantCosplaySurprise clothing]] spell. Yes. [[WTHCostumingDepartment They see what we see]]. Technically he has VillainousFashionSense with a penchant for PaintedOnPants and some DiscoDan shades.
* TheJailBaitWait: Ended, but he did probably the [[MindScrew weirdest]] one in fiction. [[spoiler: His own PrecociousCrush and [[{{Geas}} given word]] bound him to wait for [[SingleTargetSexuality Sarah]] to be born and grow up to be in legal age for his MayflyDecemberRomance attepts. And he even played the TricksterMentor (like in their movie) to ensure that the right future happens an the whole thing doesn't end in TemporalParadox. See PrecociousCrush in Kid!Jareth's tropes.]]
* KaleidoscopeEyes: Normally he has MismatchedEyes but technically not real heterochromia as both of his eyes are {{Blue|Eyes}} just his different sized pupils create a similar effect. ''But'' in times of high magic (so when his [[TheFairFolk fae]] heritage is close to the surface) his eyes can turn {{Monochromatic|Eyes}} or {{Midnight Blue|Eyes}} where they shouldn't be. He can also get GlowingEyesOfDoom. All of these are UhOhEyes but when it gets {{Monochromatic|Eyes}} ''and'' {{Midnight Blue|Eyes}}. [[spoiler:Ummm... Hello Mr. [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Dark!Jareth]]!]]
* {{Keet}}: Most of the time. With some subtle shades of SadClown mostly after applied FridgeLogic.
* ManipulativeBastard: [[DownPlayedTrope Thank goodness]] for his [[TheFourLoves goodwill]] and [[BrilliantButLazy terminal laziness]].
* MrFanservice: Add the usual MediumAwareness of the series and you'll get the idea. He knows he is MrFanservice and likes to invoke every ShirtlessScene opportunity possible and then ''lampshade'' it with something like a GoofyPrintUnderwear ''[[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-4-Meetings-60853004 If you can read this, thank FANSERVICE]]".
* TheNicknamer: He is a moderate example or ([[SubvertedTrope contrary]] to [[FearlessFool popular]] [[DumbBlonde belief]]) HAS a self-preservation instinct, but still one of the selected few who dares to call James (Norrington) ''Jamie''.
* SlouchOfVillainy: Because here PowerFloats now sometimes [[UpToEleven even on thin air]]!
* StalkerWithACrush: It's his canon, but here, most of the time, he's less guilty than suspected.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: He and [[spoiler: [[Literature/TheErlKing his father]]]]. They look alike, dress alike (PaintedOnPants / VillainousFashionSense), have similar modus operandi and even share a CatchPhrase or two... but for some reason, no HereditaryHairstyle in sight [[spoiler: (Jareth has EightiesHair while his dad is a LongHairedPrettyBoy). So for his mothers great dismay the guy did TurnOutLikeHisFather a whole lot.]]
* ThickerThanWater: Averted HARD. He feels no love, compassion or obligation for his family in general and parents in particular (they can still blackmail him into things though). For his [[TrueCompanions friends]] on the other hand...
* TokenNonhuman: Of the main cast. Can be argued that he is the MonsterRoommate of Erik.
* UpperClassWit: He fits this almost perfectly, even if his friends and Sarah tend to think of him as UpperClassTwit. Only he is part of the SupernaturalElite, and has a SingleTargetSexuality (this doesn't mean that he doesn't appear AmbiguouslyGay or as a ChivalrousPervert though).

''Tropes about his magic:''

* {{Animorphism}}: As in {{canon}} he [[VoluntaryShapeshifting can shapeshift]] into a [[OwlBeDamned barn owl]] ([[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-136-Lurk-187161819?q=sort%3Atime%20gallery%3Aasherhyder&qo=8 like this]]) but here this can also happen to him [[InvoluntaryShapeshifter involuntarily]] for example if he [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-21-Bad-Signs-70656269 uses up too much magic]]. Also results in a lot of {{Feather Motif}}s.
* ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction: His SignatureMove. It's still unclear if this is an [[FlightStrengthHeart addition to]] or a [[MundaneUtility creative application of]] his [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands highly versatile]] magic. He is also prone to bestow InstantCosplaySurprise on the others.
* CrystalBall / PowerCrystal: For SinisterSurveillance, using magic, or just playing. These things (or at least most of them) are, as the physical manifestation of Jareth's spells until activation or [[HourOfPower expiration]], MadeOfMagic. The perfectness of the ball shape also seems to indicate how much control he has over the particular spell.
* {{Geas}}: Outside of the vows taken in his magically binding voice, he also has some other magical bindings like what he can or can't tell people about his magic. [[spoiler: Example: He can't tell you the ''[[WordsCanBreakMyBones Right Words]]'' even if he wanted to.]]
* InstantRunes: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-198-Time-Out-265375997 See the pretty circle?]] His time magic tends to get these (kinda resemble stylized clocks).
* MagicalGesture: His primary way of spell-casting, he even uses {{Badass Finger Snap}}s sometimes. Seems like the range of movement he requires is inversely proportional with the needed fine control and directly proportional to the power level of the spell so sometimes (like in battles) this turns into full blown FullContactMagic.
* PGExplosives: His original [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-20-Infestation-70131387 attack spell]].
* PowerFloats: Gravity is a suggestion, not a law, for him. In his own admission in his MagicalLand he would be GravityMaster or even outright RealityWarper.
* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep / PowerEchoes: We don't know which obviously (it's a comic) but his font changes to [[PaintingTheMedium double-lined letters]] and it's acknowledged that this indicates a "[[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-121-Eagle-Eye-173709868 that funny tone of voice that means that he has to follow up]]". It's not known if this is a side effect of him channeling "the magic of truth" (for the lack of better word) or is this tone itself magic. We saw two uses of this:
** ThePromise / {{Geas}}: He can't break his word given this way. [[spoiler: This magic has a safeguard though namely he is literally unable to ''promise'' things he can't keep, even if he doesn't know why it would be a problem, and he can still say ''try''.]]
** WordsCanBreakMyBones: What he declares or commands in this tone becomes reality (Telling a soul to "Go home" sends it back to it's owner. Declaring "We'll meet again" will make it happen. etc.).
* StormOfBlades: His [[TookALevelInBadass upgraded]] attack spell rains deadly crystal shards and spears on his enemies.
* TimeMaster / SpaceMaster: In the broadest sense ([[LaserGuidedAmnesia even]] [[CharacterRerailment personal]] [[DreamWeaver time-space]]).
* WordsCanBreakMyBones: Knowing the ''Right Words'' can grant you access to his power and force him to do what you want. [[spoiler: Sometimes even things he [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-50-Boundaries-91547204 can't do under normal circumstances]].]]

'''[[ThePhantomOfTheOpera Erik Deshler]] ThePhantomOfTheOpera''' (See also: The Many Faces of... the Cast folder)
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Erik_722.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:300:The Phantom.]]

* AnimalMotifs: Cat.
* BerserkButton: Glitter. Speaking ill of operas, the French or the Europeans. More or less in this order.
* CannotTalkToWomen: Poor guy. According to the [[TheWizardOfOz Wizard]], this is why he played the MailerDaemon.
* CatchingSomeZs: His Z's are [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-12-Movie-Night-65642265 special]] (musical rest signs).
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: He is quite glad that his family can't show up to make his life miserable.
* ExpressiveMask
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Most characters are out of place in the PresentDay setting of the comic but he suffers the worst effect.
* FriendlessBackground: No friends no family and he was never to enthusiastic about this whole friendship thing, but for his misfortune he met Jareth in a bar... and they [[DrowningMySorrows drowned their sorrows]] together. What did you think?
* GadgeteerGenius: He is as good with machines and modern technology, as he is FishOutOfTemporalWater normally. As a direct example he was the first to get a driver's license.
* GerardButler / RaminKarimloo / MichaelCrawford: ActorAllusion but which?
* HairTriggerTemper: Mostly to Jareth. The guy has a gift to piss him off.
* IdeaBulb: He has an [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Wrong-Movie-48267877 idea]] [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-102-Boy-Player-156480419 candle]].
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Punjab lasso which also functions as VariableLengthChain.
* TheInsomniac: Related to being TheWorkaholic, so he is mostly type B or C.
* KindheartedCatLover: The kindhearted part is debatable but he is a cat lover.
* LoveAtFirstNote: He has the tendency of falling in love with singing voices. [[spoiler: Here with Mag's.]]
* MadArtist: He still works on his opera that nobody can perform.
* MerlinSickness: Contracted with the first re-imagining of his original story. He ages backwards (slowly). As fictional character he doesn't really age much... but fan expectations change ([[ViewersAreMorons at least the executives say so]]) and because of this almost every new Phantom remake (re-imagining) has a younger and younger Erik and this affects the one in the 'verse of the comic.
* {{Motifs}}: Outside of his AnimalMotifs he is also MusicThemed as already stated in his UnusualEuphemism and CatchingSomeZs entry but this goes farther than those: You can always expect to find a random treble clef, musical note or something like that on his things etc..
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: He firmly believes in this. For his misfortune his [[MonsterRoommate roommate]] is hard to kill.
* {{Nosebleed}}: He is kind of sensitive to the lack of female attire.
* PleasePutSomeClothesOn: Rare male on male example as he rooms with MrFanservice and he isn't approving all the {{Shirtless Scene}}s at all.
* ProperlyParanoid: If you room with a FairFolk it's a must.
* SceneryPorn: His room is ridiculously detailed and posh.
* StalkerWithACrush: It's his canon, but here, most of the time, he's less guilty than suspected.
* TallDarkAndSnarky: Because he is mostly based on the musical as opposed to his literary incarnation.
* TeleportationSickness: Kind of a NoodleIncident because it's frequently referred to but never quite shown.
* TrapMaster: You can believe that his room and by extension the building is full of traps and even more with secret passages. [[spoiler: This actually got handy when the zombies appeared.]]
* UnusualEuphemism: He swears almost entirely in musical terms. [[spoiler: When he switches to SymbolSwearing or CensorBox you know he is pissed.]]
* WickedCultured: [[ManOfWealthAndTaste Dresses well]]. Check. Uses [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness polysyllabic]] words. Not always but: Check. Likes [[CaptainObvious classical music]]. Check. Likes [[AGlassOfChianti fine wines]]. Check. Has a body count. Just in canon but: Check. Yep. He is a fine example.

'''[[PiratesOfTheCaribbean Commodore James Norrington]]''' (See also: The Many Faces of... the Cast folder)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-James_6637.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:Our OnlySaneMan [[NotSoAboveItAll sorta]].]]

* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: Being a practicing alcoholic for a long time made him extremely resistant to most substances that could knock him out (including Jareth's magic peaches). He isn't perfectly immune but will get over such effects a lot faster than most people.
* AffectionateNickname: He is Jamie for Jareth and from his reaction [[spoiler: [[EmbarrassingNickname probably also for]] [[MommasBoy someone else]] but this isn't perfectly sure yet]].
* TheAlcoholic: He is recovering but falls OffTheWagon sometimes.
* AnimalMotifs: Eagle (or dog).
* AttractiveBentGender: He looks good as male, female, in a drag etc. with or without magical assistance. He is just special.
* BadassLongcoat
* BeingGoodSucks: As he himself put it: "Stupid heroic streak..."
* CatchPhrase: "Just because I don't talk about it doesn't mean I don't rock."
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Died in HeroicSacrifice... twice.
* CovertPervert: His BlindDate arc helping [[YouNeedToGetLaid attempts]], the [[CasualKink allusions]] in his mother's Shovel Talk, his reaction in the Omake, etc. already gave hints that he is a lot more knowledgeable about such matters than his NiceGuy image and time period would suggest but [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-266-Questions-5-and-6-310562546 this]] pretty much cemented his status (even if [[WordOfGod according to Ashe]] it wasn't intentional).
* DatingCatwoman: He is in a relationship with a girl of [[UnluckyEverydude lesser standing]] and [[LittleMissConArtist dubious]] [[ManipulativeBitch "job"]] who is [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking also]] [[CheeseEatingSurrenderMonkeys French]].
* DeadpanSnarker: He can out snark House.
* DropInCharacter: He and Javert almost live at Jareth's and Erik's place.
* GoodIsNotSoft: He is the only genuinely good and nice main cast member and he is underestimated a lot because of it, but he is also BadassNormal navy officer, who proved himself against pirates, undead and seemonsters (and is [[UnusualEuphemism dangerous]] with the rope than Erik is).
* HeroesPreferSwords: He is even the closest thing to a [[TokenGoodTeammate hero]].
* HonorBeforeReason: He is recovering, but his mother still lectures him about it.
* HumbleHero: Never got fame or praise and he never really wanted it. When he saved Phillipa Saito's thank was answered with "Oh- Of course. I'm just thankful I was fast enough.".
* TheLancer / TheRival: He bemoans his canonical standing as these.
* JackDavenport: Yeah. ActorAllusion.
* MommasBoy: With great luck because his mother is a CoolOldLady.
* MoralityPet: Also to Jareth, [[spoiler: whose [[SuperpoweredEvilSide dark side]] isn't above to KickTheMoralityPet, but at least is ''[[BlueAndOrangeMorality nice enough]]'' to ask if he wants to be a [[WorthyOpponent hero]] and [[LetsFightLikeGentlemen fight the villain]].]]
* MrFanservice: No he doesn't have many {{Shirtless Scene}}s that's Jareth's domain. He is this in the old FetishFuelStationAttendant way mostly playing on [[TheWoobie nurturing instincts]] and/or kinks like BoundAndGagged as seen [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-266-Questions-5-and-6-310562546 here]].
* MuggleBestFriend: The BadassNormal variety to Jareth. They are so close that it's [[HomoeroticSubtext bromance]].
* OfficerAndAGentleman: He doesn't dread his ''family'''s reaction to his [[DatingCatwoman girlfriend]] for nothing.
* OnlySaneMan: Depressingly often for his own taste.
* StiffUpperLip: Tends to react this way to dangerous situations. So the ''universe'' tends to conspire against him just to prove that he is NotSoStoic.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Of the main cast. Sure, the others are [[YouCantFightFate trying]] to [[CharacterDevelopment better themselves]] but are still [[AffablyEvil J]][[TheFairFolk ar]][[EvilPrince e]][[StalkerWithACrush th]], [[InspectorJavert Javert]] and [[BastardBoyfriend Er]][[EvilGenius ik]].
* UnknownRival: Of [[IndianaJones Dr. Jones]]. He is the poor history teacher whose classes are empty because everyone goes to the archeology lecture.
* WeirdnessCensor: At the beginning at least he tried really hard not to acknowledge that this place is weirder than his own movie. (For example when he first met Jareth what he first noticed was that [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn the guy is shirtless]] not that he is clearly supernatural.) He reached the FantasticallyIndifferent stage since.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Implied to have this kind of relationship with his father. Who is DeaderThanDead in this comic where NobodyCanDie because [[TheScrappy we fans hate the guy]].
* TheWoobie: [[WordOfGod Ashe even calls him this]], so join the [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Commodore-Catastrophe-Card-270111446 OH NO! James!]] club.

'''[[LesMiserables Inspector Javert]]''' (See also: The Many Faces of... the Cast folder)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Javert_5169.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:The worlds most relentless lawman. Currently PunchClockHero.]]

* AnimalMotifs: Wolf.
* AntiMagic: One of his supernatural abilities, [[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane if it's supernatural all]] and not just a side-effect of his [[{{Determinator}} stubborn nature]], that he is extremely resistant to magic. [[spoiler: Managed to shrug off Jareth's LaserGuidedAmnesia spell and was the first to fight off the CharacterRerailment one.]]
* BadassLongcoat
* ByTheBookCop: He will lecture a demon (Crowley) about not smoking in the library.
* TheComicallySerious
* {{Determinator}}
* DropInCharacter: He and James almost live at Jareth's and Erik's place.
* FriendlessBackground: He doesn't have friends canonically and isn't so keen about making new ones either. He wouldn't even meet his neighbors if James didn't insist [[spoiler: and brings the [[RunningGag Fruit Basket]]]].
* FormerTeenRebel
* InspectorJavert
* [[spoiler: HumanMomNonhumanDad: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. He has WitchSpecies mom and a probably purely human father (not established here but the SpinOff about [[WordOfDante him and Valjean]] named [[TheHunchbackOfNotredame Clopin Trouillefou]]).]]
* OneHeadTaller: Javert and [[spoiler: Valjean]]. It directly contradicts their established statures in the [[LesMiserables book]] to highlight the dynamic of their UST [[TropesAreNotBad Nobody's necessarily complaining, however]]. This height difference comes from the [[ActorAllusion Dream Cast version of the musical]]... and because of this he is taller than ''anybody''.
** I'm not sure about this contradicting the [[LesMiserables Brick]] - Javert is always described as very tall, whereas average height for male Europeans at the time was around 5'3". So [[spoiler: Valjean]] may be burly and muscular, but he's unlikely to have been as tall as Javert (and I don't remember his height being specifically mentioned, either).
* PhilipQuast: ActorAllusion and the reason why he is OneHeadTaller.
* PunchClockHero: He is just doing his job as security guard. He even contemplates pulling a VillainExitStageLeft stunt when he realizes that the university [[OnlyInItForTheMoney doesn't pay him enough]] for all the troubles... but he is to [[{{Determinator}} stubborn]] to give up. He also has some other "heroics" to do for some yet unexplored reason like one (1) honest-to-goodness good deed per year... naturally he tries to get rid off it as early as possible.
* TallDarkAndSnarky
* TrueSight: The one clearly supernatural ability he has here. ([[spoiler:This addition to his canon traits was justified by his gypsy (later outright supernatural) ancestry.]] It would be a useless ability in his original story anyway... here, on the other hand...)
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: He normally is quite oblivious to such matters (he doesn't recognize other people's love problems either). [[spoiler: Since the {{omake}} he got partially over it, but can still be quite oblivious.]]
* WeaponOfChoice: Truncheon.

* AnchoredShip: The one she has with Jareth. She is in denial and doesn't trust the guy at all (who blames her?).
* ArmorPiercingSlap: She is prone to communicate her displeasure this way [[spoiler: mostly to Jareth because you "CantArgueWithElves" anyway]].
* BadassAbnormal: She is [[TouchedByVorlons Touched By]][[hottip:*:(not ''that'' kind of touching for the great annoyance of Jareth)]] TheFairFolk since she bested the Labyrinth and defeated its King. (see also: WordsCanBreakMyBones)
* BadassDamsel: Much more straight example than Christine.
* BrainyBrunette: She is good in solving problems and general magical mess.

* DeadpanSnarker: She has her moments.
* FunctionalGenreSavvy
* JenniferConnelly: OK. There were no jokes about this ActorAllusion, yet.
* JustInTime: She has an A in dramatic timing.
* MoralityChain: It's implied that she is this for [[spoiler: Jareth]] and that his Dark Side would take over without her.
* TheNicknamer: The best example. She named Mrs. Norrington Mrs. N. after their first meeting, has some colorfull "nicknames" for Jareth (like Glittertwit) calls James Jamie, Christine Chris etc. not that bad considering that she isn't even member of the main cast.
* SoapOperaRapidAgingSyndrome: She is inexplicably five or so years older than in her movie was.
* {{Tsundere}}: For Jareth. Even if she tries really hard to hide any ''dere'' side. Not that she successeds:
--> '''[[spoiler: Dark!]]Jareth''': "[[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-172-Villainy-217830784 Your words conflict- stay, go. Attend. Ignore. Help me. Abandon me. ...]]"
* WeirdnessMagnet: More than it's normal for the 'verse. She is the chosen of a powerful [[TheFairFolk fae]] and that makes her interesting for anything supernatural, also her ''special powers'' include very vivid dreams with direct connection to the more established {{Dream Land}}s. [[spoiler: (Like the Limbo from Film/{{Inception}}.)]]

[[caption-width-right:250:''Awwww'' What an [[CuteKitten adorable kitten]]!]]

* AffectionateNickname: He is Misto for Jareth.
* CatsAreMagic: He isn't called the ''Magical Mystical'' Mr. Mistoffelees for nothing.
* CatsAreMean: He likes to torture Jareth.
* CatBoy: His other "form".
* CuteKitten: [[spoiler: Only the characters with TrueSight (to be more precise fae sight, so this is the only time when the GO guys don't count) seem to be able to resist him and see his CatBoy form. So Jareth and Javert.]]
* ExpressiveEars: He IS an anthropomorphic cat.

'''[[TheChroniclesOfNarnia Jadis The White Witch]]''' [[spoiler: (Jareth's mother)]] Her court is Winter. No specialties are known yet but probably quite literally (in the snow, ice, [[EvilIsDeathlyCold merciless cold]] and [[LightIsNotGood blinding whiteness kinda way]]).
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Jadis_5228.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:An ice-cold [[WitchWithACapitalB B...um...Witch]]!]]

* AffectionateNickname: Can you believe that she has one?! [[spoiler: Because the Erlkönig calls her ''[[Funny/{{Roommates}} my Snowflake]]''!]]
* AnIcePerson: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-211-Bundled-271356167 Her son knows]].
* BerserkButton: Mentioning the fact that she was defeated by children is ''not'' wise.
* [[spoiler: BigBad: In ''Such Stuff As Dreams Are Made On''.]]
* CardCarryingVillain: She is evil, knows she is evil and [[EvilCannotComprehendGood doesn't see any use in love or anything like it]]... she sees his ex's attempts to give their son more normal motivations as [[LoveIsAWeakness weakness]]. If there is Evil [[WithACapitalT with a capital E]] around here she is it.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Why is this [[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove love thing]] so important for her son anyway?
* EvilMatriarch: No wonder her son would do a whole lot to keep her away.
* KnightOfCerebus: Not strictly a villain (even if she ''is'' the evilest character here) because the series is quite blurry on the concept but her (and her ex's) arrival marked the beginning of a lot darker stories.
* MightMakesRight: She believes this with all her heart... if she has one.
* WinterRoyalLady: As literally as it gets.
* WitchWithACapitalB: This insult is pretty much reserved for her. [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-133-Forsaken-184751515 Here]] it's the very first thing her ex says to her and also the first thing he says in the comic.

'''[[KingArthur Morgan]]'''[[spoiler: '''/Morgause/Etc. Le Fay/The Healer/Etc.''' (Mother of Javert and aunt of Jareth)]]
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Morgan_746.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:300:Yes. Both are her.]]

* CompositeCharacter: Technically she would be ''Morgan The Healer'' but [[RealityWarpingIsNotAToy so many storytellers messed with her]], her personality got mixed with so many others...
* LethalChef: [[WordOfGod Word of Ashe]] and [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-38-Todd-83350442 this page]] say that she is one of these... either that or she uses some interesting [[ImAHumanitarian ingredients]].
* MoodSwinger: Almost to the point of SplitPersonality. The visible effect of her inconsistent characterization.

* AmbiguousSyntax: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Such-Stuff-as-Dreams-Are-Made-On-2-288145205 "My son and the girl he has chosen are both in residence"]] (in the building... he doesn't say in the same apartment, or that they are together...). And the [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Such-Stuff-as-Dreams-Are-Made-On-2-288145205 "gift of mortality???"]]
* BadassCape: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Mist-and-Madness-217138534 See]] this is his trademark clothing.
* BadassLonghair: [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Mist-and-Madness-217138534 See]]?
* TheBeastmaster: All of his minions seen to date were magical / shadow / animal / spirit things. [[spoiler: He can definitely use them as {{Animal Eye Spy}}s and he even [[BondCreatures lent their power to the cast]] in ''Such Stuff as Dreams Are Made On''.]]
* [[spoiler: BigBad / TricksterMentor: He was one of these in ''Such Stuff as Dreams Are Made On''... Not perfectly clear which but TricksterMentor is a bit more likely.]]
* BorrowedCatchphrase: He pretty much stole Jareth's "Such a pity.".
* CreepyAwesome: He is on both the [[NightmareFuel/{{Roommates}} Nightmare Fuel]] (even his son calls him this in-universe) ''and'' the [[Heartwarming/{{Roommates}} Heartwarming]] subpage and also inspires a fair amount of {{Squee}} every time he appears.
* CoolCrown: He wears an (impossibly AwesomeButImpractical looking) antler crown. Or he could be a HornedHumanoid but from the [[Literature/{{TheErlKing}} poem]] crown is [[{{canon}} much more likely]].
* CrypticConversation: Likes to do this, just add his AmbiguousSyntax, love of the RuleOfSymbolism and being a FourthWallObserver and you will get the idea. Weirdly he is quite sincere and straightforward just cracking the ''code'' he is speaking isn't that easy.
* DisappearedDad: [[spoiler: For Jareth]] and in his defense, he was banished by Jadis with [[TalkingTheMonsterToDeath THE monologue]].
* DreamWeaver: We didn't see much of his magic yet, but he can do this with high proficiency. [[spoiler: On perfect YourMindMakesItReal level, if you die in one of his {{Dream Land}}s he [[TheGrimReaper can even]] [[YourSoulIsMine claim your soul]].]]
* EvilParentsWantGoodKids: Not outright evil just [[BlueAndOrangeMorality morally challenged]], but he certainly tried to give his son more normal dreams and ambitions. But sadly his wife's idea of the perfect child was OverlordJr (and she [[SolomonDivorce won custody]]). [[spoiler: He still has [[XanatosSpeedChess a lot to do]] with the fact that for a member of TheFairFolk Jareth is positivelly cudly.]] See also PinocchioSyndrome and try not to think too hard about it.
* TheFairFolk: Well, we are talking about an old-school [[TheFairFolk fae]] from the time before {{Disneyfication}} that's for sure, but the same time he seems to have some [[MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch interesting ideas]] concerning the importance of [[ThePowerOfLove some]] [[ThePowerOfFriendship human]] values (he freely admits that he [[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove doesn't really know what love is]] but he can identify {{Power}} when he sees it).
* FemmeFatalons: In his fae form at least.
* FourthWallObserver: He seems to be almost as aware as the GO guys and is also DangerouslyGenreSavvy. He won't underestimate ThePowerOfLove but build on it!
* InvisibleToNormals / InvisibleToAdults: The only adult characters who can see him if he doesn't want to be seen are the ones with TrueSight.
* KnightOfCerebus: Not strictly a villain because he doesn't have the outright malice for it and also the series is quite blurry on the concept but his (and his ex's) arrival marked the beginning of a lot darker stories.
* LargeHam: He is really over-dramatic and over-poetic but also kinda brooding and {{angst}}y at times (when he isn't being [[TallDarkAndSnarky Tall, Blond And Snarky]]). Also ChewingTheScenery is one of his favorite pastimes.
* LimitedWardrobe: Something he and his son doesn't have in common. He was seen in grand total of two (2) different outfits (his [[TwentyFourHourArmor fae armor]] and a [[AwesomeAnachronisticApparel "suit" that was probably fashionable around the 17th or 18th century]]).
* MagnificentBastard: [[spoiler: Finally awarded for his outstanding performance of XanatosSpeedChess in ''Such Stuff as Dreams Are Made On''.]]
* [[MonochromaticEyes Monochromatic]] MidnightBlueEyes: At least according to the one existing color illustration of him.
* PinocchioSyndrome: He seem to have a [[DownplayedTrope mildcase]] from the TakeAThirdOption variety. As FourthWallObserver he sees pretty well what kind of fate ([[TheGoodGuysAlwaysWin they]] [[EvilWillFail lose]]) his kind is doomed to because of their [[MightMakesRight oldschool]] [[AllTakeAndNoGive mentality]] so he tries to find a way to change this (like getting access to the PowerOfLove and [[PowerOfFriendship Friendship]])... being extremely long lived, patient and alien this means no good for anybody in his way. See also EvilParentsWantGoodKids and shudder.
* PowerCrystal: And even natural looking. This seems to be his equivalent of Jareth's CrystalBall so the MadeOfMagic physical representation of his spells.
* PurpleIsPowerful / SupernaturalIsPurple: Purple is his second favorite color after (light) blue.
* RomancingTheWidow: He does. [[spoiler: James' mother.]]
* TheShadowKnows: According to [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Twilight-Waltz-308908496 this]] his glamour can slip this way.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: [[spoiler: He and his son [[Film/{{Labyrinth}} Jareth]] (even more so in his [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Dark]] form). They look alike, dress alike (PaintedOnPants / VillainousFashionSense), have similar modus operandi and even share a CatchPhrase or two... but no HereditaryHairstyle (Jareth has EightiesHair).]]
* SueDonym: Example bordering on LouisCypher with a dash of MrSmith. He uses the name ''[[SueDonym Lord Errol King]]'' or ''[[MrSmith Mr. King]]'' for short in his human disguise.
* {{Wingdinglish}}: He speaks in runes if he doesn't bother with being understandable for Non-Magic people... because this represents the language of the magical beings. (When he does use his [[TranslatorMicrobes Translator Spell]][[hottip:*:([[WordOfGod Word of Ashe]] that he [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-138-Loss-188692595 never bothered learning any other language]].)]], or [[TranslationConvention everyone who hears him is magical]], in a [[ForeignLookingFont runic looking font]].)

* TheFairFolk
* GracefulLadiesLikePurple / TrueBlueFemininity: She prefers the misty colors of her eyes and hair and is a graceful fae lady. Maybe even a case of SupernaturalIsPurple.
* [[MonochromaticEyes Monochromatic]] PurpleEyes
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: It's purplish blue, actually.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: [[CaptainObvious Her hair matches her eyes]] and [[ExaggeratedTrope so do her clothes]].

[[caption-width-right:250:FairFolk [[OnlyInItForTheMoney for hire]]]]

* TheFairFolk: Quite probably. Has all the physical characteristics to qualify as a pure blooded fae in the series (namely: PointyEars and MonochromaticEyes) and called Jareth "one of us".
* FemmeFatale
* MasculineLinesFeminineCurves: A weird subversion. Ashe's style to draw women tends to be highly (many times impossibly) curvy and this didn't change but "Odile" also has a '''lot''' of sharp lines (more than most if not all male characters) which gives her a "living crystal" look.
* MistakenDeclarationOfLove / MagicKiss: [[spoiler: Seems like accepting "Odile"'s ''hand / answer'' when you're calling out for your true love [[{{Geas}} magically binds you]] to her.]]
* PowerFloats: She was seen to defy gravity at will.
* WaifFu: She is comparatively small and looks fragile but has uncanny (maybe magic enhanced) reflexes and fights barehanded... can fight three armed BadassNormal characters simultaneously without problem. Later revealed that they just stalled her, but it's still impressive.

'''The Shadow Beasts''' (Minions of the Erlkönig)
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Shadow_3114.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:The three with most panel time and their master.]]

* BondCreatures: They can act like this. [[spoiler: The Erlkönig lent them to the cast in ''Such Stuff as Dreams Are Made On''.]] They cause AnimalMotifs and MythicalMotifs and can turn their partners into an {{Animal Themed Superbeing}}s.
* DarkIsNotEvil: They appear in animal form so probably pretty neutral morally.
* LivingShadow: Can appear as these when they need to disguise themselfes (mostly when they're bound to someone so this overlaps with TheShadowKnows)
* MonochromaticEyes [[spoiler: Also can happen to their partners if they channel their knowledge or power.]]

!'''The Many Faces of...'''

[[folder:Jareth]]

There were several versions of '''Jareth''' appearing in the comic justified by his powers (TimeMaster) and heritage (TheFairFolk). I made them a separate section because all of them are more or less ''spoilery''.

'''Kid!Jareth''' [[spoiler: (Appeared in the ''Kid!Jareth'' or ''Little Time Traveler arc'' and he is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin really. He is a small kid Jareth from the past.)]]
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Jareth-Kid_35.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:Little Jareth is cute!]]

* [[spoiler: CloudCuckoolander: He is a small child from a MagicalLand of course he acts weird in the modern world.]]
* [[spoiler: DivorceAssetsConflict: His parents are in the middle of it and yes they both count him as asset. Ends with SolomonDivorce more or less, Jareth ends up with his mother, ''daddy dearest'' takes his sister (but it's implied that she wasn't from this marriage anyway).]]
* [[spoiler: LonelyRichKid: Lonely [[SupernaturalElite Magical Royal]] Kid. With parents like his who wouldn't be?]]
* [[spoiler: PrecociousCrush: And he even [[ThePromise gave his word]] and those tend to be [[{{Geas}} magically binging]]. Technically he promised to [[ScrewDestiny '''not''' be]] [[IAmNotMyFather like his parents]], [[TimeTravelRomance always]] [[MayflyDecemberRomance love the girl]] and to [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor make all her wishes come true]]. The girl was Sarah. An older one. In the future. Their whole movie happened because of this ForgottenFirstMeeting that wasn't really forgotten just didn't happen yet... MindScrew anyone? Also 2 out of 3 isn't so bad. See also: TheJailbaitWait in his regular tropes.]]
\\
\\

'''Dark!Jareth''' [[spoiler: (Appeared in the ''Dark!Jareth arc'' and also in ''Such Stuff As Dreams are Made On''. He is basically Jareth's SuperpoweredEvilSide and read ''Evil'' as ''[[TheFairFolk Fair]]''.)]]
[[quoteright:251:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Jareth-Dark_3504.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:251:Our ''Villain'' ladies and gentlemen.]]

* [[spoiler: BlueAndOrangeMorality: He thinks in {{trope}} and measures moral questions in the terms of the TheoryOfNarrativeCausality. He would kill if that was the story, maybe feel remorse about the life lost but would think and feel that that was the right thing to do. To clarify he seems to have some idea about what humans call "good" or "bad" but he thinks of them as [[{{Trope}} storytelling devices]] not morality and as such doesn't value them over any other {{trope}}.]]
* [[spoiler: BrainwashedAndCrazy: His second appearance was pretty much magically manipulated by his mother.]]
* [[spoiler: TheFatalist: As Sarah put it he is "Mr.-I-have-to-obey-the-story".]]
* [[spoiler: FourthWallObserver: He is [[MediumAwareness aware]] of the [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality story]] his [[DesignatedVillain role in it]] his [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption ultimate fate]] and his [[LoveRedeems only way out]]... if only the heroine would notice.]]
* [[spoiler: LargeHam: What can we say? The guy planned a RooftopConfrontation just for the effect!]]
* [[spoiler: [[MonochromaticEyes Monochromatic]] MidnightBlueEyes: A lot like his fathers... and a lot darker than his normal eye color. The most telling mark that you're dealing with him.]]
* [[spoiler: NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: He has his moments. Not that he is friendly. He knows perfectly well how awkward intrusion in their personal space can be for others.]]
* [[spoiler: SuperpoweredEvilSide: Technically he would be Jareth's original [[TheFairFolk fae]] personality... but his love and gratitude for the girl he chose, the camaraderie he feels for his friends and his own desire to change makes him suppress it.]]
--> [[spoiler: To quote [[http://comments.deviantart.com/1/254362098/2163676706 Pika-la-Cynique's comment]] about it: "... is an [[NobodyCanDie indestructible]], [[ChaoticNeutral irrepressible]], [[ItAmusedMe easily-amused and frequently bored]] [[TheTrickster prankster]] on his [[HeroWithAnFInGood *good* days]], and an [[NeutralEvil amoral, ruthless]], [[TheoryOfNarrativeCausality Story-powered]] [[{{Villains}} villainous]] [[TheFairFolk Fae]] [[EvilPrince lord]] with [[TimeMaster time-fluxing abilities]] on [[SuperpoweredEvilSide the bad]]."]]
* [[spoiler: StrongFamilyResemblance: He, even more so than normally, and [[Literature/TheErlKing his father]].]]
* [[spoiler: ThenLetMeBeEvil: After his last attempt to make the heroine see his side of the story in the ''Dark!Jareth arc''. To be fair talking in BlueAndOrangeMorality [[PoorCommunicationKills didn't help his cause]] (like suggesting that Sarah's wish to be the [[{{Heroes}} heroine]] makes it her fault that a villain is needed), not to mention that (realistically written fictional) humans normally can't just choose to "love" someone.]]
* [[spoiler: VillainousFashionSense: ... not that his "Good" side doesn't normally dress like that, mind you. But that at least doesn't force it on the others. Most of the time.]]

'''Mortal!Jareth''' [[spoiler: (Appeared in ''Such Stuff Dreams Are Made On'' after receiving a rather [[BlessedWithSuck ambiguous]] [[BroughtDownToNormal gift]] from his father. He broke the spell around halfway through the arc.)]]
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Jareth-Mortal_1909.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:Jareth - Magic = {{Adorkable}}]]

* {{Adorkable}}: Ditzy, wide-eyed, confused and insanely cute.
* [[spoiler: BadDreams: The DreamingTheTruth / TalkingInYourDreams variety.]]
* [[spoiler: BroughtDownToNormal: Not a permanent DePower but his only strange ability (according to Shadow!Javert) in this form is to always know where Sarah is.]]
* [[spoiler: CellPhone: He has one and has his [[Literature/ErlKing dad]] [[PostmodernMagik on speed-dial]].]]
* [[spoiler: FakeMemories: Seem to have them and he is locked in a full-blown LotusEaterMachine. Daddy thinks of everything.]]

[[folder:The Cast]]

Sometimes we see other versions of the others... you can guess this has to do with all {{The Trickster}}s around.

!''The Kid versions''
[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Kids_8685.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:300:Yeah... They're cute too. Even Erik.]]
[[spoiler: ([[CaptainObvious Appeared]] in the ''[[FountainOfYouth Kids arc]]'')]]:

'''Kid!Erik'''

* [[spoiler: StaticCharacter: He was only shorter as a kid.]]

'''Kid!James'''

* [[spoiler: PuppyDogEyes / SparklingStreamOfTears: Yep. He cries a lot... and looks ADORABLE in the process.]]

'''Kid!Javert'''

* [[spoiler: EvilIsPetty: He isn't above taking candy from a baby... or at least cookie from Kid!James.]]
* [[spoiler: RebelliousSpirit]]

!''The Female versions''
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Fem-Erik-Javert_3907.jpg]]
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Fem-James_3137.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:Not pictured: Female!Legolas.]]
[[spoiler: (GenderBender brought to us by Jareth's [[PowerIncontinence cold]]. They stayed in this form the longest, made some fans [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer question their sexuality]] and Sarah lampshaded the AttractiveBentGender principle.)]]:

'''Female!Erik'''

* [[spoiler: TheLadette: What did you expect?]]
* [[spoiler: StaticCharacter: Still the murderous psycho we all love.]]

'''Female!James'''

* [[spoiler: DifferentForGirls: (S)he really shouldn't stand like that with his new... body parts.]]
* [[spoiler: SpiritedYoungLady]]
* [[spoiler: TeamMom: (S)he is the closest to this.]]

'''Female!Javert'''

* [[spoiler: TallDarkAndBishoujo]]

'''Female!Legolas''' (We don't see enough form her for any tropes.)

!''The "Shadow" cast''
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Shadow-Normal_9147.jpg]]
[[quoteright:250:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Roommates-Shadow-AFS_942.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:The two faces of the [[spoiler: Shadow!Main Cast]].]]
[[spoiler: of ''Such Stuff Dreams are Made On''. At the surface they look like {{muggle}} versions BroughtDownToNormal like Jareth, but it becomes apparent quite quickly that they are a lot more. Mr. King lent them the power of his minions. See also: The Shadow Beasts in the Magical Community folder.]]

'''Tropes for all'''

* [[spoiler: AnimalThemedSuperbeing: In {{Dream Sequence}}s and after Jareth breaks the LotusEaterMachine.]]
* [[spoiler: CrypticConversation: They do this... a lot... almost like they enjoy knowing more about the situation than Jareth does.]]
* [[spoiler: [[MonochromaticEyes Monochromatic]] BlueEyes: At least when they are testing the safeguards of the LotusEaterMachine.]]
* [[spoiler: TheShadowKnows: Their AnimalMotifs and MythicalMotifs appear this way in the [[LotusEaterMachine "normal world"]].]]

'''Shadow!Javert'''

* [[spoiler: AnimalMotifs: He is still the [[BigBadassWolf Wolf]].]]
* [[spoiler: WalkingShirtlessScene: The "Fae Animal Superhero" outfit makes him this.]]

'''Shadow!James'''

* [[spoiler: AnimalMotifs: [[BigBadassBirdOfPrey Eagle]].]]
* [[spoiler: CapeWings: His "Fae Animal Superhero" outfit has a feathered cape that can act as fully functional wings or the other way around and he has wings in this form that can look like a feathered cape. So [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Such-Stuff-As-Dreams-Are-Made-On-36-303479249 wings]] or [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Such-Stuff-as-Dreams-Are-Made-On-16-294056058 cape]]?]]
* [[spoiler: SacrificialLion: He admits being this in his own story and plays the trope [[InvokedTrope intentionally]] here.]]
* [[spoiler: WalkingShirtlessScene: The "Fae Animal Superhero" outfit makes him this.]]

'''Shadow!Erik'''

* [[spoiler: AnimalMotifs: [[PantheraAwesome Panther, or at least some kind of a big cat]].]]
* [[spoiler: WalkingShirtlessScene: The "Fae Animal Superhero" outfit makes him this.]]

'''Shadow!Saito'''

* [[spoiler: BadassLongRobe: The {{Kimono}} variety.]]
* [[spoiler: MythicalMotifs: He got [[DragonsUpTheYinYang Eastern Dragon]]! How Mr. King got this Shadow Beast is a mystery... if it's his at all.]]

'''Shadow!Sarah'''

* [[spoiler: AnimalMotifs: Swan.]]
* [[spoiler: BattleBallgown: Her Swan Girl costume. She looks really Goblin Queen like in it.]]
* [[spoiler: BareYourMidriff: Her Swan Girl costume.]]
* [[spoiler: FryingPanOfDoom]]
