* EarnYourHappyEnding- Arguably gets the best ending of anyone in Crux:[[Spoiler: He finally finds redemption for breaking under the ERD's torture by convincing Holtzmann to free the autistic Nexus children and later protects the underground railroad by destroying the Van used to rescue them, all in the middle of a Hurricane.

* ShellShockedVeteran:[[spoiler: Done in a unique manner. When he was captured in Vietnam, his captors used [[BrainComputerInterface Nexus]] to make him [[AMindIsATerribleThingToRead live their memories]] of the abuse they had suffered at the hands of their government. This causes him to [[DefectorFromDecadence flip entirely]] and join their resistance, at least until his [[UnwantedRescue brothers in the Corps come to rescue him]], killing his new family in the process while he feels them die.]]
