2!!Eden
3[[folder:In General]]
4[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eden_people_2.png]]
5* AssholeVictim: Ulises and Brenda are killed in the first and second season respectively. He was a violent guy who didn't give a rat's ass about the wellbeing of others, while she killed people with ZERO guilt. Given their crimes, both of them had it coming. Alma because she killed Ibón, making her irredemeable to most viewers.
6* BitchInSheepsClothing: Basically the Eden members, including Astrid and Erick, are this to the newcomers who are chosen to stay in the island, acting cordial and sympathethic towards them, and even supportive of the sad lives they've have to deal with, but in the meantime they start showing their true faces once each of them, especially Zoa, are suspicious of their intentions. [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk And when they punish those who disobey by murdering them, it becomes serious]].
7* BoomHeadshot: The cause behind some of the deaths seen on the show are often Brenda shooting her victims dead on their foreheads with a large device that is the size of a telescope. Alma is promoted to Brenda's old job in season 2 and kills Ibón with the same device, though this time she stabbed him in the stomach.
8* DisposingOfABody: Judith gets killed by Brenda, her body is hidden in a cave to try and scare Zoa into submission, then is place on a boat headed to a cave in white cloth, mirroring a painting of Patinir in which a man is looking at Hell. However, when shown by Alma, the man is looking at Heaven.
9* EvenEvilHasStandards: Averted with almost all of the Eden members, [[LackOfEmpathy who are not above torturing or murdering those who break the rules]], including the vicious Ulises and the heartless Brenda and Alma. However, some exceptions (other than the [[TokenGoodTeammate token good teammates]] Fran, Bel, Claudia, Eloy, Saúl and [[AmbiguouslyEvil presumably Eva]]) can include Erick, Orson, Mayka and Nico, when it comes to protecting their loved ones, who would be Africa, Eloy, Ibon, Charly and Zoa, even if they put in jeopardy their loyalty to Astrid.
10* HeelFaceTurn: As of season 2, the only redeemed antagonists are Nico, Orson, Mayka and León. In the case of Erick and Eva, [[HeelFaceRevolvingDoor who are constantly changing sides]], their statuses [[AmbiguouslyEvil are a matter of debate]] and up to the viewer's interpretation.
11* IslandOfMystery: The Eden island, the so-called "paradise", is not really what it seems when five of the newcomers are invited to stay. Suspicions arise when they are being followed around by drones and watched by cameras. Then... BANG! People start dying [[HeKnowsTooMuch when they know a lot about its true nature]], being killed as punishment by the orders of two delusional cult leaders. Some of them are unemotional heads of securities like Ulises or heartless murderers like Brenda and Alma.
12* PublicExecution: Zoa and Bel were sentenced to death by Astrid for both their assassination attempt on her and their complicity in Ulises' death, with the high-ranking members in attendance. However, they are fortunately saved (at least for now) when Gabi interrupts and begs Astrid to let them go, then Brisa arrives on a chopper when she is only willing to spare Zoa.
13* TokenGoodTeammate: Bel, Fran, Claudia, Eloy and Saúl are the only good-natured members of the island who are rooting against their leader Astrid and disagree with her immoral ways.

18[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/zoa_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
19* AccidentalHero: Zoa running away to Eden and getting stuck there was the necessary push to lead Gabi away from a life of misery and finally realize that her mother is a junkie who is beyond any help.
20* AmbiguouslyBi: Zoa gets involved with David and Nico, her first male love interests. Later on, she develops feelings for Bel and they start a relationship.
21* BadBadActing: Nico clearly doesn't buy Zoa's claim about having returned to Eden, when she had the chance to escape, because she still loved him (her kiss to him didn't help matters). She hides the fact that it was because her sister Gabi is one of the guests at the party, knowing that Nico would report this to Astrid.
22* BewareTheNiceOnes: She becomes stubborn when bad things happen or don't go her way. She acts defensive when Judith is not allowed to attend the festival even though the contract forbade it by threatening to leave if Judith leaves, gets angry at Astrid for playing mind games on Charly about his sister's death and everyone else, and pressures Bel into murdering Astrid after [[spoiler:Ibón]] was killed, more desperate than ever to save Gabi from being brainwashed, despite Bel asking her to take at least a day off.
23* BigSisterInstinct: She will stop at nothing to prevent Eden from corrupting or even killing her little sister.
24* BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:Her best friend is killed, all because she encouraged her to go to a party she wasn't even invited nor allowed to attend, and her little sister, having been manipulated by the entire environment at Eden, betrays her to Astrid, almost leading to Zoa's inminent doom.]]
25* CoolBigSis: To Gabi.
26* EtTuBrute: [[spoiler:Zoa is hurt to learn that it was Gabi who sold her and Bel out to Astrid. Gabi, in tears, apologizes to Zoa, but she won't hear any of it.]]
27* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Bel starts falling in love with Zoa.
28* DudeMagnet: She attracted two guys: David and Nico.
29* HeroicBsod: Zoa briefly becomes depressed and isolates herself in a beach, believing that she will never escape the island and see her sister after Ulises ordered the newcomers to participate at the festival, knowing that the plan will be complicated with someone keeping an eye on them. However, she is snapped out of it by Bel who reassures her otherwise.
30* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: [[spoiler:Ironically, Zoa herself had to learn this the hard way. She was initially skeptical when Astrid told her that Gabi, gave her all the details about the attempted assassination on her, which was after Zoa warned her not to stay close to Astrid. Gabi being brought over, the first star carved on her wrist for this act, and sadly confirming this is what leaves Zoa in shock and heartbreak that her little sister would be capable of doing such thing to her.]]
31* ILetGwenStacyDie: [[spoiler:Judith gets killed by Brenda and Orson, all because Zoa insisted that she come along with her to the party despite the contract clearly forbidding any admittance to friends. She has to live with that guilt, but that also makes her want to fiercely protect those she cares about, even her little sister.]]
32* ItsAllMyFault: [[spoiler:Zoa beats herself up for Judith's death because she was the one who convinced her to go in the first place, knowing that the contract forbid her from bringing friends on the trip. This is even lampshaded by Astrid and Erick]].
33* ItWasHereISwear: Zoa tries to show [[spoiler:Judith's]] dead body to Ibón, only to find that it's no longer inside the cave.
34* [[LipstickLesbian Lipstick Bisexual]]
35* MsFanservice: Zoa is often shown in revealing clothes, and later shows a lot of naked skin when she gets intimate with Bel.
36* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler:Her idea of bringing Judith to Eden led her to be killed, and this is what drives her to seek justice for those at Eden and her sister Gabi when she arrives.]]
37* NiceGirl
38* OnlySaneWoman: The only mature and responsible woman of her dysfunctional family, consisting of [[MarriedToTheJob a workaholic father]], [[TheAlcoholic a negligent heroin addict mother]] and [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter a naïve little sister who can't tell between right and wrong]].
39* PreserveYourGays: If not for the detective's arrival, Astrid would've succeeded in executing her and Bel.
40* PromotionToParent: Justified in the fact that her mother is addicted to heroin and her father travels a lot for work, something that forces her to raise Gabi on her own.
41* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:Zoa is the reason why her best friend Judith winds up killed by Eden as she was the one who had encouraged her to go in the first place and the contract she signed made very clear that she wasn't allowed to invite any friends.]]
42[[/folder]]

44[[folder:Astrid]]
45!!Astrid
46!!!'''Played by''': Amaia Salamanca
47[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/astrid_welcome_to_eden.jpg]]
48* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Sisuk tries reasoning with Astrid that his motives to have her father killed were out of business and pleads for Som to be left out this, but she angrily asks him if he ever thought of ''[[ChildrenAreInnocent also leaving her poor son out of this]]'' when he lit the match. He doesn't respond.
49* BadBoss: As the second season progresses, Astrid starts treating her employees (even Mayka and her own husband Erick) quite poorly and dismissively.
50* BatmanGambit: Astrid orders Nico to take Zoa to a cave where she sees her friend's dead body in an attempt to scare her into submission and show her that that they mean business. However, the plan backfires massively as it causes Zoa to become even more questionable about the island's true nature.
51* BigBad: Arguably, the main antagonist of the show and leader of the cult.
52* ClingyJealousGirl: Jealous of África and Erick, even after learning they had a one-night stand.
53* DarkAndTroubledPast: She lost her father who was killed by two biker assasins, [[spoiler:one of whom is revealed to be Danae, one of her most trusted goons.]] [[FaceHeelTurn This triggered her dark path to villainy in the first place]], as she's willing to finish his research he began years ago.
54* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler:The reasoning behind her insane behavior is that her father was killed on orders of Som's father, and she built Eden to exact revenge on the killers.]]
55* GreenEyedMonster: Astrid becomes this to África as she and Erick start growing closer to each other and Astrid has second thoughts about assigning him as her link.
56* HappilyMarried: To Erick, for 15 years.
57* KarmaHoudini: This woman proves to be untouchable and impossible to kill. She still gets away with most of her schemes, killings and other wrongdoings.
58* KickTheDog
59* LawOfInverseFertility: In season two reveals that Astrid can’t have children, and Nuria is the mother of Issac, not Astrid.
60* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Clearly, her methods to keep the residents at Eden are less than well-intended and highly unethical.
61* PetTheDog: She and Erick vote against executing Zoa, who was suggested as a scapegoat for the "Death to Astrid" debacle. Although she seconds Brenda's suspicions about Zoa's behavior over [[spoiler:her friend Judith's]] death, Astrid still has her hopes up that Zoa can improve, but that she'll accept whatever they choose.
62* UsedToBeASweetKid: In her backstory, she was very humble and a decent woman until the death of her father had totally destroyed her.
63* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Has blonde hair and is the most antagonist character of the show.
64* YouHaveFailedMe:
65** Astrid reprimands [[spoiler:Brenda]] for not living up to the expectations she had of her trying to find out the culprits behind the death-threat and [[spoiler:Ulises']] murder. At the end, she shoots her multiple times, killing her.
66** Does the same to Orson and Alma for failing to kill Eloy, whom they believed was responsible for the murder of [[spoiler:Ulises]]. While Astrid merely gives Orson a warning, she has Alma's second star removed from her wrist.
67[[/folder]]
68
69[[folder:África]]
70!!África
71!!!'''Played by''': Belinda
72[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/africa_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
73* BrainlessBeauty
74* BreakTheHaughty: Almost everything goes bad for her after getting stuck in Eden, from Astrid locking her up and refusing to feed her (and almost having her executed) to Erick, with whom she had an affair, leaving her for his family. And later learns that she's pregnant with Erick's child.
75* EveryoneLovesBlondes
76* IChooseToStay: She and Ibón are the only newcomers, apart from Aldo, Charly and Zoa, who are willing to stay in Eden.
77* DidYouActuallyBelieve: When Erick chooses his family over África and ends things with her, especially after his son Isaac was almost killed by Zoa and Bel, she reveals to him that she did not becomes his and Astrid's maid as a mere thanks for saving the latter's life - it was just an excuse to be closer to Erick.
78* {{Hypocrite}}: Africa becomes this for saving Astrid from Saúl, even though she kept her locked up in a cell, refused to feed her and almost had her executed.
79* ItsAllAboutMe
80* JerkassBall: She behaves like an asshole to Zoa for not rescuing her, even though she clearly had no idea she was in trouble. She also coldly tells her not to disrespect Astrid and Erick, which is because she got to be their maid to escape death. However, in the second case is subverted as she had asked for the job, not because she actually enjoyed it, but to be closer to Erick.
81* ParentalAbandonment: África's mother abandoned her at a park when she was five years old.
82* LikesOlderMen: Just ask Erick.
83* TheMistress: Becomes Erick's lover in the second season.
84* MoralMyopia: Africa angrily blames Zoa for the psychological torture she had to endure from Astrid while she was kept imprisoned for days, completely ignoring that the entire situation was her own damn fault for entering the compound and entering the device room without even knowing what was she causing. It's also Astrid's fault for not allowing Africa to participate in the other festival due to her being famous.
85* NoSympathy: When Erick refuses to attend the New Eden event, which leads to an argument with Astrid and her making Isaac choose who he wants to be with, the kid tries to turn to Africa, who works as his parents' maid, by reaching her hand, but all she can do is to callously brush him off. This is a clear sign that Africa only accepted the job because of Erick and she really doesn't care about him or Gabi.
86* SourOutsideSadInside: Has a lot of followers on social media, but no ''real'' friends.
87* SugarAndIcePersonality
88* WomanChild: She has shades of it.

97* ChickMagnet: Mayka and Som are both attracted to Charly.
98* CoolBigBro: Used to be this to his deceased sister Beatriz, who drowned in a swimming accident.
99* GoodIsDumb: He's rather clumsy and a bit of an idiot, but that doesn't stop him from being a good person.
100* InnocentlyInsensitive: He initially questions Mayka's name because of her gender identity, [[BerserkButton which for a moment angers her]].
101* ItsAllMyFault: Feels guilty for causing his sister's death.
102* MyGodWhatHaveIDone
103* NiceGuy
104* SadClown: His main defense mechanism to cope with his sister's death.

111!!!'''Played by''': Diego Garisa
112[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ibon_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
113* [[AbusiveParents Abusive Dad]]: Ibón's father is very perfectionist and abusive towards his son, forcing him to work full-time at his hotel and making all of the decisions for him, rather than allowing him to make them on his own.
114* AmbiguouslyBi: In season one, he has entered the relationship with Alma, his first female love interest. But in season two, he cheated on her with Orson, and ended up in a threesome with both Orson and Eloy.
115* BewareTheNiceOnes: Ibón is usually very shy and reserved. However, he goes very ballistic when Aldo keeps calling him "Chopin" and almost picks a fight with Ulises when he confronts him for sneaking out of Module 1.
116* BreakTheCutie: Ibón is left traumatized by his murder of Ulises.
117* BuryYourGays: [[spoiler:Ibón is the first bisexual character to be killed off.]]
118* TheCutie
119* DeathByWomanScorned: [[spoiler:Ibón is killed by Alma, his ex-girlfriend, as revenge for cheating on her with Orson and Eloy and choosing to spend with them over her.]]
120* EmbarrassingNickname: Ibón is called "Chopin" (after the late Polish pianist) by Aldo and Charly when he's revealed to be a classic music geek. [[MaliciousMisnaming Aldo even keeps calling him this despite repeatedly correcting him]].
121* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Ibon had sex with Orson, even before the threesome started, he seems to have the hots for Eloy despite being his friend.
122* {{Foil}}
123* TheGwenStacy
124* HiddenDepths: He is an art and music history geek (managing to identify the music playing before he and the guests depart for Eden and explaining a painting from Patinir), and likes playing the piano. But his abusive father disapproves of his son's hobbies while forcing him to work at his hotel.
125* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Just like África, Ibón is sure that the people of Eden truly want to help them move on past their traumatic experiences and initially dismisses Zoa's claim that they killed [[spoiler:Judith.]] Her dead body floating on the sea leaves him horrified. However, after pretending to still trust Alma, with whom he's fallen in love with, he gets too carried away by her probably genuine charms and becomes determined to stay in the island for good.
126* IChooseToStay: Despite Zoa's protests that no one in Eden cares about him, Ibón reiterates that he elects to stay so that he won't return to his abusive father.
127* InnocentlyInsensitive: Ibón cheats on Alma with Orson and Eloy, thus leaving her unhappier than she was after Astrid demoted her. Later, he breaks up with her just after he had a threesome with them.
128* KillTheCutie: [[spoiler:He is killed by his girlfriend Alma.]]
129* MoralityPet: Ibón is this to Alma. [[spoiler:Sadly deconstructed when she kills him.]]
130* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:He's visibly horrified after killing Ulises, despite it being the only way to stop him from killing Zoa.]]
131* NiceGuy
132* RavenHairIvorySkin
133* SadisticChoice: He makes the hard decision to kill Ulises when he tries to do the same to Zoa after she is caught attempting to escape. Had he allowed him to, Zoa would've been dead by now.
134* ShrinkingViolet
135* StepfordSmiler
136* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: [[spoiler:Poor Ibón gets killed by Alma after confessing it was him who killed Ulises to get back on Astrid's good graces.]]
137* UptownBoy: He is implied to be rich, while he's in the relationship with Alma who came from the poor family.
138* WhenHeSmiles: For a shy guy like Ibón, his smile is definitely gorgeous.

143!!!'''Played by''': Albert Baró
144[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aldo_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
145* AdvertisedExtra: Aldo is featured in the official poster and billed in the main cast, but he has very little screen time [[spoiler: because he gets killed off in the middle of the season]].
146* CassandraTruth: No one believes Aldo ''rightfully'' claiming that Eden is a cult. Once he goes missing, they start taking his warnings seriously.
147* ExcellentJudgeOfCharacter: He's right in pointing out that the island's inhabitants are not as good as everyone thinks they are.
148* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Aldo regarding his own escape from the island.
149* TooDumbToLive: [[spoiler:Out of the five members who are invited to stay in Eden, Aldo is the only one who is quick to suspect that the island is a cult, something the others dismiss as jealousy. Nevertheless, Aldo makes numerous attempts to escape and when it seems that he managed to do so after boarding a boat, however, it turns out Brenda predicted this when she suddenly appears with her gun. How does Aldo respond? Getting on his knees and let her shoot him on his forehead]].
150* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler:All we get to know from Aldo is that he was an entrepreneur.]]
151

153
154[[folder:Mayka]]
155!!Mayka
156!!!'''Played by''': Lola Rodríguez
157[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mayka_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
158* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: Mayka stops Charly from risking his life to rescue Zoa and Bel. To prove her point, she shows him some footage of the entire time he spent at Eden, to prove that she actually cares about him and she couldn't bear the thought of living without him. She risked her job to save him, defended him to Astrid and Erick when they were still willing to execute him, she did it all for Charly so she wouldn't lose him.
159* AntiVillain: While she's been loyal to Astrid for years and follows each and one of her orders, she's not that evil unlike the rest of her delusional co-workers.
160* BerserkButton: DON'T question Mayka's name and gender identity. Charly learned this the hard way when Mayka called him out on this.
161* BettyAndVeronica: Mayka is the Betty to Som's Veronica.
162* BrickJoke: Mayka was not present at the I.T. room to alert anyone about Ibon escaping the Module 1, as she was having sex with Charly. Later in season 2, when Charly and Mayka secretly meet for sex after he was forced to be Som's link in exchange of sparing his family's life, he fears they will get caught, [[CaptainObvious but Mayka quickly reminds him who's the one in charge of the I.T. room]].
163* ConflictingLoyalty: Mayka's loyalty to Eden becomes tested as she starts developing real feelings for Charly.
164* DarkAndTroubledPast: She was attacked and threatened in her hometown for being trans, which led her to join Eden where she was accepted for who she was.
165* FirstGirlWins: In the Charly-Mayka-Som love triangle, and after taking some distance from him, Mayka definitely stands out as the winner. Justified, Charly was basically assigned as Som's link to make her fall in love with him so she could stay at the island, albeit as a way of blackmail, so after Som signed the contract, Astrid no longer needed Charly and he was free to be with her instead.
166* InsecureLoveInterest: Once she finds out that Charly had sex with Som, but in a worse way, as their tryst was taped and shown to her.
167* MoralityPet: To Charly.
168* MsFanservice
169* NiceJobFixingItVillain: She was busy taking care of and then having sex with Charly by the time Ibon ran out of Module 1 where all the residents were supposed to stay during a thunderstorm, so there was no one in the I.T. room to report him. However, this didn't stop Ulises from confronting Ibon the next morning about it.
170* PetTheDog: When Astrid gets death-threatened and she wants to have someone as TheScapegoat, she votes against having Zoa executed along with Astrid, Erick and Saúl. She also votes against executing Charly and África, despite the majority of the results being in favor.
171* TransRelationshipTroubles
172* UndyingLoyalty: She's been the most loyal member of Eden to Astrid for years.

179[[quoteright:1000:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/erick_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
180* AffablyEvil: Erick, despite being in complicity with his wife's schemes, is kind, well-mannered and serves as a father figure to África.
181* AngerBornOfWorry: He gets angry at Africa for entering the device room, which shows how genuinely worried and horrified he is of what is Astrid going to do with her next. Also, he scolds Isaac for leaving his module to explore the island as he was almost discovered by Joel when he accidentally left his backpack behind.
182* AntiVillain: While he's far from being taken seriously as a villain and despite his affection for Africa, Erick still stands with Astrid on every strict policy of the island.
183* BlatantLies:
184** He assures Zoa and Charly that the boat is going to pick them up. He is seen smirking when Zoa calls him a liar.
185** When Erick is leaving Africa upon learning that Isaac was almost killed, he refers to her as a "nobody", which visibly hurts her. After he notices this, Erick claims he didn't mean it like that by clarifying that their romance was merely an affair. SAME THING, MAN!
186* HappilyMarried: To Astrid, for 15 years.
187* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: In season 2, he changed sides twice. The first time, he's had enough of Astrid's obsession with her New Eden scheme and decides to leave the island, taking his son Isaac with him and África deciding to join him, signifying a redemption arc. However, in the finale, he rejoins Astrid's cause after finding out that Zoa and Bel had almost killed Isaac with the bombs they planned to use to blow Astrid up, while also dumping África in the process. And is last seen by Astrid's side when both of them are to be executed.
188* JerkassHasAPoint: While leaving Africa alone and pregnant was not the wisest call to make, Erick choosing his family after learning his son was almost killed is totally reasonable. Naturally, he reacted like any parent would in a situation like this.
189* MayDecemberRomance: His and África's relationship, until he leaves her for Astrid after learning that Zoa and Bel almost killed his son.
190* NeverMyFault
191* NoSympathy: Leaves África for Astrid without even bothering to know that she's pregnant.
192* ParentalSubstitute: Becomes a father figure to África.
193* PetTheDog: He and Astrid vote against executing Zoa, who was suggested as a scapegoat for the "Death to Astrid" debacle. Erick actually was the one who ''came up'' with the suggestion to have Zoa killed, but still.
194* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Erick leaves Astrid to move in with Nuria, as he's fed up with having to put with her lies to the residents about discovering "New Eden", and takes Isaac with him. However, he changes his mind after learning that Zoa and Bel almost killed his son by putting the bombs inside her module.
195* TeamDad
196* VillainRespect: Erick's reaction to finding out that Gabi is Zoa's sister and came to Eden using a fake name is to compliment her intelligence and quick-thinking to avoid being discovered. However, [[EvilIsPetty Astrid feels that Gabi "betrayed" her]] and chides Erick for downplaying the situation.

204* ActionGirl: Bel is very skilled in combat and manages to beat the crap out of Nico who fights her over Zoa.
205* ActionGirlfriend
206* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Most of the time she's stoic but always protective of those she cares about.
207* BadassAdorable: Despite her toughness, Bel is one of the nicest members of Eden after her friend Eloy.
208* BettyAndVeronica: The Betty to Nico's Veronica for Zoa, who is the Archie.
209* BewareTheNiceOnes: Prone to become violent whenever she's provoked, as lampshaded by her. For example, she gets into a fight with Nico over Zoa, later does the same to Eva when they are not on the same page about sacrificing Eloy to protect Ibon.
210* ButchLesbian: Bel is a lesbian who has a braid-hairstyle and often dresses in masculine clothing.
211* CuteBruiser: She may be a girl, but never understimate Bel's abilities to fight. Nico learned this the hard way when he aggresively confronted her for becoming Zoa's new link.
212* TheLadette: The least ladylike of all the female characters.
213* LettingHerHairDown: Midway through the second season, Bel lets down her hair more often than not, showing more of her femininity.
214* MoralityPet: To Zoa.
215* NeverHurtAnInnocent: Bel refuses to defuse the bombs to blow Astrid up with Isaac inside, but Zoa is very insistent as she's grown desperate to get Gabi back.
216* NiceGirl: Bel is tough but most of the time, one of the few nicest characters in the show.
217* PreserveYourGays: If not for the detective's arrival, Astrid would've succeeded in executing her and Zoa.
218* TokenGoodTeammate: The first to be revealed in Eden. She leads the rebellion against Astrid.
219* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Bel is a tomboyish girl, while Zoa is more feminine.
220* WhatTheHellHero: She's mad at Eva for wanting to have Eloy sacrificed for Ulises' death.
221* WhenSheSmiles: Astrid tells Bel that she should smile sometime; she does and it's pretty to see.

229* AntiVillain: He's loyal to Eden and is desperate to make Astrid proud of him, but at the same time, he genuinely wants to help Zoa.
230* ComfortTheDying: [[spoiler:Zoa stays with Nico during his last moments after Saúl injects him with overdose.]]
231* CrazyJealousGuy: He just can't stand seeing Zoa and Bel together.
232* CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler:Being injected with overdose is definitely not a nice way to go.]]
233* DemotedToExtra: [[spoiler:Nico's role in season 2 is smaller as he still attempts to get a promotion from Astrid. After finding out that Saúl was responsible for threatening Astrid with death, he tries to report him, but in the process Saúl fatally injects him with overdose.]]
234* DidNotGetTheGirl: [[spoiler:Nico never gets to be with Zoa after she chooses Bel and is killed by Saúl.]]

239* ItsAllAboutMe: He's desperate for a promotion and is willing to do whatever it takes to please Astrid.

242* WouldHitAGirl: He gets into a physical fight with Bel after he saw her and Zoa making out.

251* BewareTheQuietOnes: Snaps at Alma when she provokes her by bringing up [[spoiler:Fran's death]].
252* BlackGirlDiesFirst: [[spoiler:She's the first black character in the show to be killed off, followed by Nico and Saúl.]]
253* BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:Fran's death]] is what makes her a sad character to watch.
254* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:Once she's made to take the fall for the death threat directed at Astrid, Claudia willingly goes with Orson and Brenda so they can finish her off and stops Zoa from interfering.]]
255* TokenGoodTeammate: Along with Bel, Fran, Eloy and [[spoiler:Eva]], but she refuses to parttake in their rebellion and advises Zoa against it.
256* TheScapegoat: [[spoiler:Gets framed by Eden for the "Death to Astrid" video, after Alma reported her to Astrid for refusing to share information about Zoa, resulting in Orson and Brenda killing her the same way they killed Judith]].

261!!Alma
262!!!'''Played by''': Irene Dev
263[[quoteright:407:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/alma_bienvenidos_a_eden.png]]
264* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler:As she reveals in season 2, Alma had such a crappy childhood, since her parents were poor and would always blame their situation on her, considering Alma "a worthless weak little girl" as Astrid said when she scolded her for failing to kill the culprit of Ulises's killer.]]
265* BettyAndVeronica: Alma is the Veronica to Orson and Eloy's Betty for Ibón (Archie).
266* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:She was already this after the newcomers arrived, but season 2 has her pretending to support Ibón after telling her that he killed Ulises, but she becomes desperate to earn her place back in Eden, and ends up killing him as revenge.]]
267* BlatantLies: Alma confronts Claudia, demanding to know what was she telling Zoa, even going as far as to bring up [[spoiler:Fran's]] death, which causes Claudia to snap at her. Alma apologizes to Claudia for offending her. However, her discreet grin as she leaves suggests otherwise.
268* ClingyJealousGirl: She continually questions Ibon on why is he around Zoa the entire time (and he lies to her about it to avoid suspicions about her paranoid behavior over Eden), even though the two barely know and have no feelings for each other. She becomes even more jealous to see Ibon with Orson and Eloy.
269* TheDragon: [[spoiler:Astrid's newly appointed second-in-command after Brenda's death.]]
270* EvilCannotComprehendGood: She doesn't feel remorse for killing [[spoiler:Ibón]] and clearly fails to understand that he suffered a lot worse than she did, as he had an abusive father while Alma's neglectful parents were poor.
271* EvilRedhead: Zig-zagged. While Alma is loyal to Eden and sees herself reflected in its ideals, however, she starts developing genuine feelings for Ibón. [[spoiler:However, season 2 takes this to a new level when she kills Ibón, who had confessed to being Ulises' killer, in order to prove herself to Astrid and shows no remorse about it when Orson calls her out.]]
272* FatalFlaw: Her flaw is that she is a people-pleaser. Alma lived with abusive parents who blamed her for their situation, which caused her have low self-esteem and live in Eden. She met Astrid and looked up to her, feeling she was the mother she needed and could please at any cost. Tragically, this leads to her killing [[spoiler:Ibon]] to earn back her place after she was demoted for disobeying a direct order to execute the alleged culprit behind Ulises' death.
273* {{Foil}}
274* FreudianExcuse: Her reason to choose Eden as her new home is because her parents were poor and considered her a "worthless weak little girl" as Astrid described.
275* GreenEyedMonster: She wasn't quite happy when Ibón grew closer to Orson and Eloy.
276* IronicName: Her name means "kind" and "nourishing". However, Alma is clearly beyond any kindness or redemption after she kills [[spoiler:Ibón.]]
277* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Alma's reason to kill Ibon was to get back "where she belongs". In short, fixing her loyalty to Astrid.
278* IJustWantToBeSpecial
279* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: In season 2 only after killing Ibon.
280* KickTheMoralityPet: [[spoiler:Sadly, her murder of Ibon.]]
281* LackOfEmpathy: Just like Brenda, she never felt remorse after killing [[spoiler:Ibón]].
282* LoveMakesYouEvil: [[spoiler:As Alma grows increasinly jealous of Ibon's closeness with Orson and Eloy, her love for Ibon soon turns to obsession, eventually leading her to murder him herself.]]
283* NotGoodWithRejection
284* PsychoExGirlfriend: [[spoiler:She kills Ibón, not only for killing Ulises, but also out of jealousy for cheating on her with Orson and Eloy.]]

298!!!'''Played by''': Alex Pastrana
299[[quoteright:900:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ulises_bienvenidos_a_eden.jpg]]
300* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:No one is definitely going to shed a tear for Ulises after he attempted to choke Zoa to death and got his well-deserved comeuppance by Ibón who drowned him]].
301* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:Zig-zagged in season 2, as Ulises was killed by Ibón at the end of season 1 in defense of Zoa, only to be avenged by Alma, who murdered Ibón right on the spot after he confessed to being the culprit. Zoa and Bel were accomplices as they covered up the murder, and Astrid was ready to have them both done for after Gabi revealed their plan to have her killed. But they survived thanks to Brisa arriving, interrupting the execution.]]
302* DragonInChief: Ulises in Season 1. While he's not the BigBad of the series overall, Ulises, Eden's head of security, serves as Zoa and the other newcomers' antagonist in their attempt to escape the island. [[spoiler:He meets his demise at the hands of Ibón by being drowned while attempting to kill Zoa]].
303* GreaterScopeVillain: Of Season 2, [[spoiler:posthumously]], as two of the season's main villains, Joel and Danae, are summoned by Astrid to reinforce the island's security and investigate the person responsible for Ulises' death. [[spoiler:It doesn't end well for Ibon, as Alma ends up killing him after he admits to it.]]
304* HairTriggerTemper: Due to his cranky attitude, Ulises easily gets angry, almost violent.
305* HateSink: He's very vile, unempathetic and unforgiving in nature. He tortured Fran for disobedience, attacked Ibón for sneaking out of Module 1, left Eloy with a bleeding nose when he tried to defend him and tried to kill Zoa.
306* TheHeavy: In Season 1. While Astrid is still his boss, he's the one causing most of the problems. Astrid is simply fulfilling her goal to invite as many people as possible to stay in Eden forever, while Ulises is directly antagonistic to the newcomers, such as having a violent confrontation turned into a fight with Ibon for sneaking out of Module 1 during a thunderstorm and viciously attempting to kill Zoa when she attempts to escape.
307* {{Jerkass}}: A sadistic, unsympathetic and ruthless person who will do anything to get what he wants.
308* KickTheDog: Ulises tortures Fran for disobedience, picks a fight with Ibón, while demanding to know why he snuck out of the module during the storm, and punches Eloy when he tries to break them up.
309* MeaningfulName: His name means "to hate, wrathful", which exactly fits his personality.
310* TheSociopath: Has zero qualms for carrying out orders from a cult's leader, even attempted murder.
311* TheStoic: Ulises shows very little emotion for most of the time. [[NotSoStoic That's until he attempts to kill Zoa]].
312* VillainousBreakdown: He loses his TranquilFury cool and savagely attacks Zoa when she attemtps to escape the island, to the point of choking her while he grunts scarily.
313* WouldHitAGirl: Ulises shows no mercy on Zoa, as he furiously attempts to choke her to death after he caught her trying to escape Eden.

321* AntiVillain: He's very hot-tempered and strict to following orders, but he grows into this by the second season, especially because of his relationship with Eloy.
322* BettyAndVeronica: Orson is the Betty to Alma's Veronica for Ibón.
323* BitchInSheepsClothing: Pretends to comfort Judith after she witnesses Fran being tortured [[spoiler:until it turns out that he and Brenda lead her into a trap, resulting in her death]].
324* CharacterDevelopment
325* DirtyCoward: Despite being sad about Ibón's death and clearly against Zoa and Bel being executed, he can't do anything about it as he's afraid Astrid will punish him if he doesn't follow her commands.
326* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Orson is shown to be in a relationship with deaf member Eloy, which is supposed to be one of his few redeeming qualities.
327* EvenEvilHasStandards:
328** He's not visibly pleased when Ulises injures Eloy in an attempt to break up a fight he had with Ibon.
329** Torn between emotions and strict adherence to the rules, Orson was very hesitant to kill Eloy despite being framed by Eva for murdering [[spoiler:Ulises]] that he did not want to watch and pressured Alma to just kill him already, which she couldn't do either.
330** He was also disgusted to learn that [[spoiler:Alma]] killed [[spoiler:Ibón]].
331* HeelFaceTurn
332* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Orson might be unkind and detestable to a certain extent, even when he helped Brenda kill [[spoiler:Judith and Claudia]], but that doesn't mean he's uncaring. When Alma suggests that Ibón be put in charge of security alongside Ulises instead of checking the sound with Orson, he says he has no problem with that change and accepts it without a second thought. Later in season 2, while initially dismissive towards Ibón, Orson helps him up when he almost falls off a cliff.
333* ManlyGay
334* MrFanservice
335* NotSoStoic: Like Ulises, he shows little emotion for most of the time, but his relationship with Eloy and [[spoiler:Ibón's]] death points to the contrary.
336* PetTheDog:
337** When Ulises suggests Eloy as potential scapegoat for the death threat to Astrid, Orson says he doesn't think he could do such thing.
338** Despite not being that fond to Ibon initially, he agreed to start their own search party to find Eloy before Astrid's goons did.
339* TookALevelInKindness: [[spoiler:He refuses to kill Eloy even if he didn't kill Ulises and starts bonding with Ibón. He even turns on Alma after she kills him.]]

347* AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler:Brenda sobs pathetically when she falls to the ground wounded, before Astrid kills her by shooting her.]]
348* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:Despite how unforgivable her murders were, some fans who liked the acting of Claudia Trujillo felt sad when Astrid killed Brenda.]]
349* AloofDarkHairedGirl
350* AssassinsAreAlwaysBetrayed: [[spoiler:Despite her loyalty to Astrid and doing her job without any hesitation whatsoever, Brenda is nonetheless finished off by Astrid over her failure in catching Ulises' killer, shooting her several times until she's dead. She is replaced by Alma as the new hitwoman.]]
351* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:Like Ulises, she gets zero sympathy by fans when Astrid killed her.]]
352* BackForTheDead: [[spoiler:Brenda is killed by Astrid in the Season 2 premiere when it becomes clear to her that Brenda hasn't done her job properly in finding the culprit who killed Ulises. Before this, she was seen helping Orson putting Ulises' corpse on a small boat into the sea.]]
353* DirtyCoward: [[spoiler:Brenda is shown to be this when Astrid is about to kill her, as she doesn't struggle to fight back and starts sobbing.]]
354* TheDragon: To Astrid, as she is the one who often carries out the executions at Eden if anyone dares disobey the rules at the island. [[spoiler:Her death at the beginning of season 2 makes her lose this title and is replaced by her friend Alma.]]
355* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Despite how sadistic and nightmarish she is, she has a close friendship with Alma, whom she invited to join the island.
356* HateSink: Brenda is widely loathed for both her attitude and murders of [[spoiler:Fran, Judith, Aldo and Claudia]], and without [[LackOfEmpathy any shreds of guilt]].
357* {{Jerkass}}: Like Ulises, She’s one of the most insufferable characters in the series.
358* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: Brenda ''(jokingly)'' swears to Ibón that she would kill him if he ever dared try to hurt Alma. Ibón laughs with her. Wait a second Brenda, [[BlatantLies would you?]].
359* LackOfEmpathy: Brenda never regrets any of her actions, including the murders she committed on Astrid's orders. She didn't even hesitated on doing the same to Judith, who was desperately begging to be spared.
360* NoBisexuals: It's never explicitly stated if Brenda is into both guys and girls, when she kissed Judith in the threesome with her and Orson and was on the relationship with Lucas.
361* ShipperOnDeck: Brenda is very supportive of Alma and Ibón's relationship, especially due to how close she is to Alma.
362* ThisIsGonnaSuck: [[spoiler:Judging by her face and Astrid's disappointment on her for doing a rather incompetent job in keeping her detractors at bay, Brenda clearly knows Astrid just wants to get rid of her and does so by shooting her.]]

371* DudeMagnet: Orson and Ibón.
372* EtTuBrute: It's hard to blame Eloy when he gets mad at Eva for betraying him, to the point he tells her not to do that again. She assures him she won't. He initially thought it was Bel.
373* FriendToAllChildren: He began to bond with Issac.

394* NiceGuy: To his fellow colleagues and the newcomers.
395* PetTheDog: Votes against executing Zoa, who was suggested as a scapegoat for the "Death to Astrid" debacle. It says a lot [[spoiler:when he's revealed to be the assailant who attacked Erick and Astrid, making him another member to be totally against her unethical methods.]]
396* TokenGoodTeammate: Not only this, [[spoiler:but he's the one who tried to kill Astrid and Erick back in season 1, and was acting on his own accord to exact revenge for his mentor Graciela's death.]]

405* AmbiguouslyEvil: [[spoiler:By the end of season 2, after having betrayed Zoa and Bel for Astrid once again and joined Joel's military unit, it is left unclear whether she regrets delivering this hard blow or willingly wanted a promotion without a care for their feelings.]]
406* AntiVillain: Eva betrays the rebellion more often than not to be on Astrid's good graces, but is still affable.
407* BewareTheNiceOnes: She fights back against Bel when they argue over Eloy taking the fall for murdering Ulises.
408* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: She has the tendency to betray the rebellion for Astrid and get herself a promotion. [[spoiler:She tells on Fran when he tries to flee the island, makes Eloy the scapegoat for Ulises' murder and allows Joel and his team to capture Bel and Zoa.]]
409* GoodAllAlong: [[spoiler:When she's revealed to be part of the rebellion against Astrid. However, this is zig-zagged when she keeps betraying the rebellion when things go out of hand, all for wanting a promotion from Astrid, which causes Bel to question her actions: Ibon killing Ulises during Zoa's failed attempt to escape makes her frame Eloy, who found the body and hid it, and almost have him killed, and in the mix comes Gabi, who sells Zoa and Bel out to Astrid, leaving Eva with no choice but to allow them to be captured.]]
410* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Her most defining trait in season 2, from being secretly revealed to be helping Bel take Astrid down to betraying the rebellion multiple times, including framing Eloy for Ulises' murder. She rejoins Bel to assist in Astrid's assassination by blowing her up, but Eva again goes back on her word by selling Zoa and Bel out to Astrid and Joel. By the finale, she has joined the army team led by Joel.
411* MsFanservice: She shows a lot of skin in season 2 whenever she engages in sex with Joel.

413* RegretfulTraitor: [[spoiler:While she wasn't the one who sold Zoa and Bel out to Astrid, Eva did not tip them off about Joel and his team coming after them as Bel speaks to her over the walkie-talkie, only to get no response at all. Eva, who has joined Joel's team, answers with a simple "I'm sorry".]]
414* TheQuietOne: She hardly speaks and voices her opinions about Eden.

423* AffectionateNickname: Zoa calls Gabi "Ardillita" (Little Squirrel) because of her messy hair in season 1.
424* AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler:She desperately pleads Zoa to forgive her for selling her out to Astrid by reminding her of their one-rule: "We never say goodbye in anger". However, Zoa just stays silent, [[OocIsSeriousBusiness as she's too depressed to even be moved by this attempt]], before she privately breaks down in tears.]]
425* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: At least from Zoa's point of view. Zoa even says that she's 15-years-old, but she keeps acting like if she was five. The two have a sort-of love-hate relationship but it doesn't mean they don't deeply care about each other.
426* TheBabyOfTheBunch: The youngest of the characters in the show.
427* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler: Gabi changes her hairdo to copy Zoa's appearance and improves her social media profile under a fake name ("Molly") in order to get herself invited to Eden]].
428* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: She goes from wanting to rescue Zoa who is stuck at Eden, to showing interest in staying once she arrives there and even not take seriously her big sister's warnings about its dark environment. [[spoiler:It comes to a heat when Gabi betrays Zoa to Astrid by revealing her plan to murder her, which severely strains their relationship.]]
429* BlatantLies: [[spoiler:When Astrid reveals Gabi's betrayal to Zoa, she claims that her life was being threatened and thus she had no choice but to cooperate, but Astrid is quick to call her bluff.]]
430* BrainyBrunette: She was originally this with brown hair, before dying her hair blonde. Not to mention, you could see her reading a book in episode 2 back from season 1.
431* CorruptTheCutie: [[spoiler:Astrid unknowingly manages to do this to Gabi, which leads to her going as far to betray her own big sister by revealing the entire assassination plot when her cover is blown.]]
432* DidntThinkThisThrough: [[spoiler:It actually never ocurred to Gabi, and it's no wonder the reason how, that Astrid would punish Zoa with death after she spilled the beans about her and Bel's plan to assassinate her.]]
433* EasilyForgiven: This is possibly the outcome for Gabi betraying Zoa to Astrid, as the two hug each other wordlessly when the execution is unceremoniously interrupted by Brisa's arrival to Eden.
434* FatalFlaw: Her naiveness causes problems for the characters, especially Zoa, at Eden more often than not.
435* ForcedToWatch: [[spoiler:While her sister Zoa is about to be executed, after begging Astrid to let her and Bel go. Fortunately, the nightmare is over when Brisa arrives.]]
436* {{Flanderization}}: She was already a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter and a SpoiledBrat, but by season 2, her naiveté gets the best of her when she [[spoiler:betrays Zoa by selling her out to the ObviouslyEvil Astrid]], which leads her to become an ExtremeDoormat and [[TookALevelInDumbass take a level in dumbass]].
437* GoodCannotComprehendEvil: Gabi doesn't clearly understand Astrid's true motivations of bringing people to Eden, let alone killing them if they dare disobey her rules. [[spoiler: When Astrid has Zoa and Bel executed, Gabi pleads for Astrid to change her mind, even calling her "my mother" and telling Zoa "our mother will forgive you", clearly seeing this as ToughLove on her part.]]
438* HasAType: 16-year-old Gabi and guys who are twice her age: David and Joel. She even kisses them both.
439* HeelRealization: [[spoiler:Gabi finally realizes how of a living hell Eden truly is while she lashes out at Som who finds her crying and races to stop Astrid from killing her sister and Bel, but it's uncertain if her statement about Astrid being the perfectly good mother for them was actually true or a ploy to get Astrid to stop the execution.]]
440* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter:
441** Both Zoa and her father want nothing to do with her mother because of her addiction to heroin. Gabi, on the other hand, is the only one willing to give her a chance everytime she left the rehab clinic, yet Zoa always told her not to get her hopes up because she would relapse after a short while. [[spoiler:Later on, Gabi realizes that Zoa was right when she goes missing and their mother shows very little interest in her disappearance]].
442** [[spoiler:Happens once again in season 2 when Gabi becomes content with her new lifestyle in Eden and comes to believe that Astrid and Erick have good intentions with the guests. This creates a rift between her and Zoa, who repeatedly insists that they're brainwashing her.]]
443** [[spoiler:She continues to believe that Astrid is truly a good person despite having attempted to kill Zoa and Bel.]]
444* {{Hypocrite}}:
445** Gabi gets mad at her mom for drinking, but she also does the same at a party where she encounters David and attempts to kiss him. [[IronicEcho She even repeats the same her mom said, about not being used to drink a lot.]]
446** This little girl has the gall to tell Zoa that she's not being corrupted by Astrid and that she would never do anything to harm her, despite Gabi having absolutely ''no problem'' diving in very deep sea waters, and almost drowning, to retrieve her necklace to prove herself.
447* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She may be very ungrateful, bratty and self-righteous, but deep down she looks up to and cares a lot about her sister Zoa, despite their frequent fights and disagreements.
448* LiarRevealed: [[spoiler:It turns out she didn't keep her promise to not get near Astrid and ended up selling Zoa and Bel out by revealing their failed assassination plot.]]
449* LikesOlderMen: She becomes enamored with David, a random guy Zoa met at the Eden party, and later Joel, the tough leader of the military team hired by Astrid.
450* MoralityPet: To Zoa, in season 2. [[spoiler:Actually deconstructed.]]
451* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:Gabi cries after hearing Astrid intending to kill Zoa and Bel because she told on them. She repeatedly apologizes to Zoa, [[EtTuBrute who is completely heartbroken that her sister would do something like that to her]].]]
452* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Her naiveness in two cases about Eden leads to the following outcomes:
453** When Gabi tries on the wristband David stole from the boat, it sets off an alarm back on the island, inadvertently revealing his location [[spoiler:and causing him to be captured, then executed by Astrid's mainland hitmen.]]
454** She overhears Charly breaking up with Som, and informs Astrid about it. As a result of reneging on the deal to be Som's link in exchange for sparing his brother's life, she sends León to his house and attempts to kill him. Fortunately, Brisa is there to back him up and they both survive, but still...
455** And to put a nail on the coffin, [[spoiler:Gabi betrays Zoa and reveals her attempted murder on Astrid, which leads to her and Zoa almost getting executed, and ''she'' is the one who attempts to prevent it.]] [[WhatTheHellHero Shame on you, Gabi]].
456* OnlySaneWoman: She is the only one to show serious concern for Zoa's whereabouts while her parents just sit there and do nothing about it, but especially their alcoholic mother couldn't care less that Zoa ran away again. It is deconstructed in season 2 [[CassandraTruth as Gabi repeatedly dismisses Zoa's warnings about Eden]].
457* ShipperOnDeck: She's totally okay with Zoa and Bel as a couple and says they look good together to her. She also thinks the same about Charly and Som, [[DramaticIrony not knowing this was forced upon him by Astrid and that he actually likes Mayka]].
458* SpoiledBrat: Probably the worst kind you could ever imagine.
459* TookALevelInDumbass: Ever since she arrived at Eden, all this little girl has been making were a lot of stupid decisions, [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter especially when she's blinded by her idealized personality of Astrid]].
460* TookALevelInJerkass: She becomes more selfish, childish and ungrateful than she was in the previous season, especially when her and Zoa clash over their differing views about Eden.
461* UngratefulBitch: She belittles Zoa's efforts, mistaking them for jealousy and apathy, to protect her from the people of Eden who are up to no good in favor of having a better lifestyle.

Both Erick and Sisuk himself try to talk some sense into her, reminding Astrid that Som is not to blame for the ordeal, but she refuses to hear them out.]]
