| 3 | The character sheet for ''Series/{{Hollyoaks}}''. As it is a LongRunner SoapOpera, there are many characters past and present so those which haven't been present in a long time will have no or few tropes. As Hollyoaks was first shown in 1995, expect [[LateArrivalSpoiler spoilers]] from anything older than a few months to be not considered as such. The characters are organised by family, with additional names listed after the main family name. |

He started off as a typical "bad boy" but then matured as he got with Amy and had a child (as well as believing Amy's other child was his for a while). His storylines involved domestic abuse, both from him to Amy then from Brendan to him after figuring out that he was gay and more recently him finding Danny, his real father after almost hooking up with him. He was in a civil partnership with Doug Carter for a while before he died in the explosion and his children are Leah (who Amy initially claimed was his, although he adopted her later) and Lucas (who is his), who swap between being and not being on the show as to whether they're staying with Ste or Amy. |

| 1631 | Fraser's daughter and Clare's sister. She comes to town looking for justice for Clare and initially works alongside Fraser, trying to prove herself useful in his "business." Almost killed Joe Roscoe by crashing a wrecking ball into a building when he was inside it, and subsequently hid him away in a hospital so he couldn't tell anyone what really happened. After Fraser's death, she becomes a much more sympathetic character and her storylines shift to focus on her family life with Trevor and their plan for Esther to have a surrogate baby for them (though Grace is still involved in occasional criminal activity.) |

| 1640 | * TookALevelInKindness: While she was initially pretty much a Clare replacement, her character has evolved to showcase more of the actress's comedy skills and to give Grace more sympathetic plots such as her desire for a baby. |
| 1641 | * TheUnfavorite: Fraser apparently favoured Clare over her when they were children. |
| 1642 | * [[WellDoneSonGuy "Well Done, Daughter!" Girl]]: When first introduced, she was desperate to win Fraser's approval by showing herself to be just as ruthless as he was. |
