[[/folder]]

* IceMagicIsWater: Her primary element is [[MakingASplash water]] and her Absolute Zero Craft and Ether Debuster S-Craft has her transform her Orbal Staff into a ChainsawGripBFG and release an icy explosion to inflict magic damage.

* MultiNationalTeam: Though part of the Crossbell Police Department, only about half the members (Lloyd, Elie, Noel, and Sergei) are originally from Crossbell, and the former two had spent some time living abroad prior to the start of the series. Tio is from Remiferia, Rixia is from Calvard, and Randy and Wazy both come from PartsUnknown.

* ALadyOnEachArm: At the start of ''Zero'' Chapter 3, the Seeker sisters mistakenly assume that he got stood up on a date during the Anniversary Festival, so they grab him by his arms to go to a concert near the Harbor District.
* AProtagonistShallLeadThem: The main protagonist of the Crossbell Arc, and was made leader of the SSS due to being the only one who had completed detective training.
* ATasteOfPower: [[spoiler:In ''Cold Steel IV'', he, Elie, Estelle, Joshua, and Renne start off at Level 88, their Master Quartz at Level 5,[[note]]Master Quartz in ''Cold Steel IV'' cap out at Level 10[[/note]] and have mid-game tier Quartz equipped. As soon as their prologue chapter ends, players are stuck with Juna, Kurt, and Altina with barely any starting equipment. Randy is also at a lower level than the prologue party members but is more of a CrutchCharacter when he first joins]].

* BookEnds: In ''Reverie'', he's the first character onscreen when the player first controls him during the Prologue chapter. [[spoiler:He's the final character by default onscreen that players control to go save Rufus.]]

* ContrastingSequelProtagonist: Estelle from the ''Sky'' trilogy was a female staff user who was BookDumb and flighty at times and had known Joshua for a while before the two became an OfficialCouple, and was in the dark about her father's LivingLegend status and joined the non-government aligned Bracer Guild. Lloyd, meanwhile, is a male tonfa user, never met any of his possible love interests before the Crossbell arc started, and is part of the Crossbell Police Department. His defining feature and trait is his talent as a detective, showing him to be quite intelligent. He also initially sees himself stuck in the shadow of his late brother Guy, who was known as an exceptionally talented detective.

* OneSteveLimit: Averted; a fisherman from the ''Sky'' games is also named Lloyd.

* WillTheyOrWontThey: He and Elie are attracted to one another, but whether they act on it depends on the player picking her for the final Bonding Events in ''Zero'' and ''Azure''.

* ATasteOfPower: See Lloyd's entry above relating to ''Cold Steel IV''.

* InstantRunes: Aerial Cannon creates one of these at the end of her gun, which she then uses to rapid-fire [[BeamSpam a lot of energy beams]] at the enemy.

* TheOjou: Notably, even before everyone found out her grandfather was the mayor, the Japanese script has Randy calling her "Ojou-san" (This becomes "Mademois-Elie" in the English localization).

* ParentalAbandonment: Her parents left when she was little, leaving her in the care of her grandfather and Ernest. [[spoiler:One of the sidequests for ''Cold Steel IV'''s Final Chapter has her reunite with her mother [[Characters/TrailsSeriesEreboniaOthers Diana]]]].

* AnIcePerson: Her Crafts Absolute Zero, Mega Zero Cannon, and [[CombinationAttack Cold Gehenna]] all reflect her elemental slant towards water.

* BlueMeansSmartOne: Her hair and outfit are blue and she is a TeenGenius who handles most of the SSS' tech-related matters.

* CatchPhrase: ''What a bother''[[note]]"''mendokusai desu''" in Japanese[[/note]].

* {{Fan Girl}}: She is a huge one of Mishy, the mascot of Mishelam Wonderland.

* HeroicBSOD: Played for laughs during a sidequest in ''Azure'', where Tio can learn a truth that shakes the foundations of her world: beneath the costume, Mishy is a middle-aged man. She spends the remainder of the sidequest in a state of shock.

* OneSteveLimit: Averted; Estelle has a childhood friend named Tio.

* ShorterMeansSmarter: She's TheSmartGuy of the group while also being the youngest and shortest member at 150 cm at the start of ''Zero''.

* ShyBlueHairedGirl: During the Crossbell Arc. She eventually grows out of it by the Erebonia Arc.

* TheSmartGuy: She serves as the most tech-savvy member of the SSS.

* SugarAndIcePersonality: While she may seem impassive and distant, she's kind and considerate.

* SuperSenses: Tio's senses are particularly acute due to her exposure to Gnosis; the headband sensors are more to conceal that she's doing the detecting herself. Unfortunately, it winds up being a disadvantage to her as well. Hearing the sounds of slaughter a room away distresses her greatly (something likely not helped by D∴G Cult-related PTSD), and a person shouting in the same room caused her visible pain.

%%* {{Tsundere}}: A mild example, usually directed at Lloyd.

* ChickMagnet: Shown to be quite the catch with the ladies.

* ColorCodedCharacters:Heavily associated with the color red, being a FieryRedhead who was born as part of the ''Red'' Constellation [[PrivateMilitaryContractors jaeger corps]] where he earned the title of the [[RedBaron Red Reaper,]] his [[RedEyesTakeWarning eyes]] gain a red glow when tapping into his old Red Reaper self when using his Death Storm Craft, as well as his Death Scorpion and Berserker S-Crafts, and his primary element is [[PlayingWithFire fire.]] Some characters also refer to him as [[InUniverseNickname Red]] as well.

* LaResistance: He joins up with Mireille and the rest of the Bellguard CGF members who refused to go along with Dieter's plan near the end of ''Azure''. Naturally, he also joins the larger group that forms the resistance against Erebonian occupation following the conclusion of the game.
* LadyKillerInLove: Since his first introduction, he's shown to be quite the ladies man who can't stop flirting with any attractive woman in sight. Despite that, it's heavily implied that Mireille had a special place in his heart [[spoiler:which proves true when he ends up proposing to her near the end of ''Reverie''.]]

* OneHitKill: Death Storm has a chance to inflict instant death.

* TheReveal: He is a former jaeger and the son of the late leader of the Red Constellation.

* ChickMagnet: His androgynous looks have made him quite popular with ladies, and he's highlighted as a host, a job which he was noted to be very popular at.

* WalkingSpoiler: Most of her tropes concerns the ending of ''Zero'' Chapter 2.

%%* {{Tsundere}}: A mild example, usually directed at Lloyd.

* TeenGenius: Is fourteen in her first appearance and already a highly skilled researcher and programmer for the Epstein Foundation, being the most tech-savvy of the SSS.

** Her Paraselene Dance S-Craft starts with her leaping into the air and launching several chained claws at the enemy to hold them in place. It's upgraded variant in ''Reverie'', Pearl Moon Dance, begins her throwing some [[StockNinjaWeaponry kunais]] and {{PaperTalisman}}s at the enemy.
** Her Hien Souzan Craft from the first ''Daybreak'' game has leap upwards, send her chain-mounted claws down upon her opponents, then drop down and slash them herself.

* PunchAWall: When Sigmund demands he return to take over the Red Constellation Chapter 2 of ''Azure'', he punches the wall to punctuate how enraged he is at them for trying to drag him back into the life he tried so hard to get away from.

* CombatStilettos: Her outfit includes a pair of heeled boots which she is shown to have trouble wearing into battle.

* ReducedManaCost: Her Brave Order ''Cross Strike'' cuts down the EP Cost of the party's arts(50% in ''Cold Steel IV'', ''90%'' by ''Reverie'') for a few turns in addition to letting the other team mates get the next turn.

%%* {{Tsundere}}: A mild example, usually directed at Lloyd.
* TearsOfJoy: Played for laughs when the group visited Mishelam Wonderland. It gets played much more seriously in Chapter 4 of ''Zero'', where she cries after receiving wholehearted support from Lloyd, Elie, and Randy.
* ThousandYardStare: Ends up with one during a sidequest in ''Azure'' upon discovering that a middle-aged man is under the Mishy costume, with her being utterly silent with a blank expression and remaining that way until the SSS return to Crossbell.
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: She starts loosening up as the games go on until it reaches a head in ''Reverie'', which marks the first time where she ''smiles'' in her default portrait.

* BladeLock: Ends up in one against Shirley during his attack on the Red Constellation in Chapter 3 of ''Azure''. He loses when she activates Testa-Rossa's [[ChainsawGood chainsaw function]], which cuts through his damaged Berserker.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: He's the son of the leader of the most powerful jaeger corps in western Zemuria and has literally grown up on the battlefield and been killing people since the age of nine. Shirley reveals one particular incident has him raid a village full of civilians but he understandably told her to shut up before divulging anymore details.

* FieryRedhead: Has bright red hair, and while usually laidback can get pretty passionate when provoked. His primary Element is also [[PlayingWithFire fire.]]

* HatesTheirParent: Has nothing but contempt towards his father Baldur for raising him up as a ChildSoldier. That said, he was slightly upset upon learning about his death from Sigmund at the start of ''Azure''.

* PunchAWall: Does this in rage in Chapter 2 of ''Azure'' when Sigmund demands he return to take over the Red Constellation to punctuate how enraged he is at them for trying to drag him back into the life he tried so hard to get away from.

* YouaReBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: On more than one occasion, he's expressed a strong sense of self-loathing over his past as a jaeger, seeing himself as nothing more than a failure good only for violence. His TrueCompanions are quick to rebuke him for it and tell him in no uncertain terms that regardless of his past and flaws, he's still one of them and they all care about him and thus should value himself more.
