* TeensAreShort: Similar to Celica, despite being 19 Mia is not that much taller than Lin.

* BladeOnAStick: She uses a javelin due to being in the Partisan Eagle class.

* BladeOnAStick: Like Lao, he uses a javelin as his melee weapon.

* HasTwoMommies: Gender-inverted, as her final affinity quest reveals [[spoiler: that her parents were a couple of ''male'' adventurers]]: the fact that she was TheTeamWannabe had a lot to do with her [[spoiler: missing her dads and wanting to become a great explorer [[WellDoneSonGuy to make them proud]]. The Nopon Tora and Rook looked at her in surprise.]]

* IDidntMeanToTurnYouOn: According to Tika, Alexa's so obsessed with Skells that little else seems to register with her. Which has left all the guys that have fallen for her shit out of luck. And it was enough to drive Mika to [[spoiler: sabotage two of her projects]] out of jealousy over Camber:

* HundredPercentAdorationRating: Because of her [[GoodSamaritan generous personality]], Hope is beloved by the population of New L.A. All the party members have nothing but nice things to say to her, even ''[[TokenEvilTeammate Murderess]]''. [[spoiler: It's due to all of this why Ornella actually comes to resent her. But it's also because of her infinite, saintly generosity that so many people truly care about her and are willing to assist her if needed.]]

* AmbiguousDisorder: Alexa is obsessed with Skells to the point that she has a hard time focusing on or caring about anything else. She also seems to have a hard time reading people, at one point needing a colleague's feelings spelled out to her when the situation is obvious to everyone else involved. A later Heart-to-Heart reveals that she's speculated InUniverse to have some kind of disorder, but that's all that's said on the matter.

* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: His WeaponOfChoice for close combat, befitting for a Shield Trooper.

* DarkSkinnedBlonde

* {{Bishounen}}: Has a high-pitched voice and looks rather feminine.

* BaldOfAwesome: Probably to emulate the look of a monk.

* CutscenePowerToTheMax: Gameplay-wise, while he's one of the strongest recruitable characters thanks to his five skill slots, True Stream Edge and Blossom Dance he's no Cross. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5tFEF1siwc&feature=youtu.be&t=937 In cutscenes]], he's a OneManArmy that can curbstomp a group of Ganglion through use of {{Flash Step}}s.

* MismatchedEyes: One is brown and the other is purple

* {{Foil}}: To Rook as both start off as amnesiac, low level BLADEs. While Yelv is talkative and hot-headed, Rook is silent and (usually) level-headed. While Rook has a good reputation in New LA, Yelv gets along poorly with others.

* CluelessDudeMagnet: If you speak to her friend, Tika, after completing the "What the Skell?!" affinity mission, she tells you the incident with Mika isn't the first time Alexa's had that happen to her. Though it's usually the guy who ends up broken-hearted, because Alexa doesn't realize [[HelloNurse the effect she has on men.]] Skells are the only thing on her mind.

'''H.B.:''' ''[aloud to himself]'' Yeah... like charge of BLADE.
