* ThenLetMeBeEvil: [[spoiler:Implied. Eteon framed him for the death of his team, forcing him to go on the run, and by the time we’re introduced to him he’s become as evil as everyone thought he was. [[HeelFaceTurn At least till Fast 8]].]]

* PutOnABus: As of the sixth film, due to the actor wanting to concentrate on his rap career. This is written off in-universe when Brian tries to assemble the team - he and Rico are stated as having last been seen crawling around the casinos in Monte Carlo. [[spoiler: He manages to make a cameo in the eight film, as detailed above. Notably, while Rico makes a return in [=F9=] in a cameo appearance at the end of the film, Tego doesn't, with Rico citing that he's too busy running a restaurant in Brooklyn.]]

* TheCameo: [[spoiler: Alongisde Tego Leo, in ''The Fate of the Furious''.]]

* FriendToAllChildren: Surprisingly kind to and protective of children, even [[spoiler: that of his enemies]]; threatening children in front of Deckard Shaw is an invitation to be on the wrong-side of a one-sided ass-beating.

* Leitmotif: Has a menacing sounding theme that plays several in ''Furious 7'' and ''The Fate of the Furious'', as well as briefly in ''F9''.

* FaceHeelTurn: When he seemingly turns against and betrays his team in Fast 8 (''The Fate of the Furious''.) [[spoiler:Turns out he never truly betrayed them willingly. He was blackmailed and coerced by Cipher in order to protect his infant son's life. Even under her foot, he secretly plotted against her and avoided hurting any of his teammates while being forced to work with her.]]

* CaperCrew: For the most part, they operate as thieves or carjackers using their cars and high-tech equipment to assist their plans. The main thing that changes once they become good guys who they target.

* MercyLead: [[spoiler:For for helping him to kill Reyes, gives 24 hours to Dom at the end of ''Fast Five'' to escape the authorities if Dom's crew leave the money as it is. However, Dom conned out of this as the team switched the vault with a dupe before they head on the bridge.]]

* BruiserWithASoftCenter: His EstablishingCharacterMoment as this comes when Brian saves him from the Police in the first film. Dom's just beaten Brian in a race and had no high opinion of him before the rescue, but afterwards he treats Brian with friendship and respect, showing just how important loyalty is to him. So yes, he is somewhat of a jerk, but stand up for him and he will die for you.

* HeelFaceTurn: For all of his symapthetic qualities, he was more of an AntiHero, or even a VillainProtagonist in his first couple of appearances, before turning into a more straightforward hero.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While he can be a dick, he cares very, very much about his family and friends.

* NobleDemon: It's easy to forget that he's the ''villain'' of the first movie, the notorious carjacker that California law enforcement has been chasing for months. He's a caring TeamDad, [[DoesNotLikeGuns never goes into a carjacking with lethal firearms]], and when he confesses having nearly beat a man to death you can just tell he's been regretting it every day of his life.

* TookALevelInKindness: Even though always a man of honor, Dom started the series with a harsh edge of intolerance for betrayal that characteristic of the typical crime boss; Ever since Brian restored his faith in friendship and honor by trading his career and reputation to save him from a life in prison, the big man gradually softens into a tough but warm-hearted GentleGiant who is willing to forgive anybody.

%%* HotBlooded

%%* {{Tomboy}}

* UnkemptBeauty: She's always covered in engine grease.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's an egotistical ass with a really high opinion of himself, but he protects and looks out for his friends no matter what.

* SpeedDemon: Dom is recognized as the best street racer in Los Angeles. While while having a heart-to-heart with Brian, he admits that racing is the only thing that allows him to forget his troubles for a while.

* BigEater: As highlighted in ''Fast 6'', he's the only person to be frequenting the vending machine in DSS's field operations base in London (even after Hobbs blasted it open with his HandCannon). In the epilogue, he immediately reaches for the potato chips, prompting Brian to rat him into saying mealtime grace for the crew. Lampshaded and justified in ''2 Fast'', where he says he's eating as much as he is because prison food sucks so he's having as much on the outside as he can.

%%* ChildhoodFriends: With Brian.

* BigBad: It's easy to forget considering how personable he is in the first movie, the fact that the climactic fight of that movie was against his rivals at that time, and his status as [[TheHero the definitive protagonist]] in the films ever since ''Fast and Furious'', but he's actually this in the first movie, being the DVD player hijacker in the first film that Brian was tracking down throughout the whole movie.

* TheSmartGuy: He's the team's tech guy and the most knowledgeable one.

* AffirmativeActionGirl: Her addition in ''Furious 7'' is possibly to balance out the cast and replace Gisele's secondary female hero [[spoiler: following her death in the sixth film]].
* BirdsOfAFeather: Gets a few ShipTease with Tej in ''Fate'', most of them basing on their tech expertise.

* TookALevelInBadass: Ramsay has at least aquired a certified skill in improvised-weaponary by ''Fast X'', being able to knock out one of Dante's mercenaries out cold through with her laptop computer.

* MySecretPregnancy: Does this twice, no less. The first is in ''Fast Five'', where Vince's wife discovers that she's about three month old pregnant, but she doesn't tell them until Dom attempts to split up the team. The second is [[spoiler: just before the climax of ''Furious 7'', where she tells Brian that she has to come home, or else their second child wouldn't have the chance to meet its father.]]

* PutOnABus: Is put into this in ''Film/TheFateOfTheFurious'', since with Mia being demoted to a housewife, and Brian being retired due to his actor's death, bringing her again without him would have been awkward. However, she makes a return in ''[=F9=]'', as the villain is personal to her, although it's unknown whether this means she is rejoining the team full time.[[note]]In real life, the return was because Michelle Rodriguez (Letty's actress) threatened to leave the franchise if it continued to ignore girl-girl relationship, citing Letty's lack of interaction with Mia despite them being sisters-in-law and having lived in the same orbit for years. In the film itself, Letty specifically invites Mia to return, ignoring Dom's objection, and the two share more interaction than the previous films combined.[[/note]]

* ThickerThanWater: She admits to Letty that even after Dom banished Jakob from home, she kept in touch with him for a year, until he left with a message not to search for him. She did it anyway, even breaking into a police station when she was 16 (much to Letty's amazement). [[spoiler:In the climax of ''[=F9=]'', she saves Jakob after he is betrayed and left for dead, which leads to his HeelFaceTurn. In the aftermath of the conflict, the siblings share a hug, with Mia asking Jakob not to disappear from her again.]]

* CowardlyLion / TheSoCalledCoward: Roman always be the ''first'' to object to a dangerous mission, declaring ScrewThisImOutOfHere on the grounds that he's OnlyInItForTheMoney and the danger is not worth dying for.... only to '''invariably''' come back to save his friends in the nick of time because he ''love them '''more''' '' than his own life or money.

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/FuriousSeven'' | ''Film/TheFateOfTheFurious'' | ''Film/{{F9}}'' } ''Film/FastX''

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Has respect for his brother Owen that he considered [[AvengingTheVillain avenging him by killing the people who put him in a coma.]] [[MommasBoy Not to mention the fact that would do anything to not make his Mom cry.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: When rescuing [[spoiler: Dom's baby son]] from Cipher's clutches, he was ''disgusted'' that her men would open fire in the direction of [[spoiler: an innocent child]]; after disarming said mercenary, he turns [[spoiler: the pram away]] so [[spoiler: the baby boy]] would not have to see him beat the brute into a vegetable. And even earlier than that when it's revealed that [[spoiler: Cipher came to him first to recruit him in the mission to steal the Nightshade device, but Deckard refused to help her when he saw [[AxCrazy what kind]] [[TheSociopath of person]] she is, forcing Cipher to recruit his brother Owen instead.]]

** However, some people accuse him of being a hypocrite due to the part in the last film where he nearly killed Dom's nephew with a bomb. This could be justified, though, by saying that the bomb was only meant for Dom, not Brian, Mia, or Jack and that he didn't know they were their in the first place.

* Leitmotif: has a menacing sounding theme that plays several in Furious 7 and The Fate of the Furious, as well as briefly in F9.

** In the seventh movie, he tears through hordes of prisoners and guards equally in his escape run.
** This is also exemplified in the eighth film, when Deckard [[spoiler: and his brother rip through all of Cipher's mercenaries with ease.]] Deckard even has time to [[spoiler: crack jokes and repeatedly check on the baby.]]

* WorthyOpponent: Oh, Deckard and Hobbs don't like each other, and are ''not'' shy about showing it; however, in ''Furious 8'' they gradually bond through their mutual respect for each other as heroic warriors sold out by their country, so much so that [[spoiler: Hobbs punches a wall in grief and rage at the news of Deckards' apparent death.]]

* BadassBaritone: He has an extremely deep voice.

* BadassBaritone: Considering who's playing him, yeah.

* EveryoneHasStandards: Dom and the team will be the ''first'' to admit that they're not heroes or saints, but even they're horrified enough in ''Furious 6'' by [[AxCrazy Shaw's]] vicious crushing of innocent civilians under his tank that they deliberately change battle formation to protect said civilians from the psychopath's rampaging tank. [[spoiler:Letty exhibiting these same standards by criticizing Shaw while in the tank with him as a member of his crew is a quick hint that her time as a heel is soon to be over.]]

* HighSpeedHijack: Dom's crew specializes in this, to the point where actual law enforcement agencies HIRE them for it.
