1The newest generation of Vault Hunters, all of which are trained professionals designed to function in 4-man teams (though that can change given certain circumstances). A total of ''16'' exist in this story, all of which with wildly varying powers that can compliment one another nicely.

3[[{{Characters/VaultHuntersWanted}} Back to the main character index]]
4----
5[[foldercontrol]]
6
7[[folder:Paula Picassa "The Bomber"]]
8A MadBomber / MadArtist combo, Paula is an expert demolitions expert even when compared to the likes of [[spoiler:Not-So-]]Tiny Tina. Honestly believes that her explosions are "art", an idea that makes her very unstable and volatile. Tends to {{Fangirl}} over some anything romantic, with social taboos having the greatest reactions.
9
10Her Action Skill, Mad Art, enhances her current gun over a few seconds, reaching its peak at the end of the duration to deal massive explosive damage. Her first skill tree, ''Everlasting Beauty'', is designed to make her into an off-tank capable of healing herself through her explosive attacks. Her second skill tree, ''Art of A Single Moment'', enhances her explosive damage to insane levels, making her a GlassCannon in the process. Her final skill tree, ''Tranquil Wrath'', uses Splendor stacks to increase her damage while sacrificing her shields in the process.
11* MadArtist: Pretty obvious actually.
12* MadBomber: It's the name of her character class, or close enough.
13* MomentKiller: Does this a lot, especially when romantic things are involved. By the time the moment is about to reach its maximum romantic effect, she kills it with her {{Fangirl}} gushing and {{Squee}}-ing. The narrators even [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] this aspect of her character.
14* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-iJbvAhd90 "Circus"]] by Music/BritneySpears. Fits pretty well, considering her [[AttentionWhore Attention Whore]]-like tendencies.
15* ShipperOnDeck: Outright calls herself this, supporting Suture/Katelyn, Dion/Aurai, and even [[BrotherSisterIncest John/Jane]].
16* StuffBlowingUp: Any fight she's in will end up like this, one way or another.
17[[/folder]]
18
19[[folder:Aurai "The Calamity"]]
20The Weather Siren of the Crimson Raiders, Aurai joined when she was rescued from the Carnival by Suture. This was due to '[[spoiler:his guilt over experimenting on her brutally and his treatment of her. Despite this, she forgives him without a grudge]]. She is an AllLovingHero who is a BadassAdorable and GenkiGirl, though [[spoiler:after Dion's injuries, she has become more a StepfordSmiler due to emotional trauma and grief]].
21
22Her Action Skill, Phasetwist, summons a massive tornado that slows enemies and deals damage around it as well. Her first skill tree, ''Kiting'', emphasizes crowd control abilities and various utility things for herself. Her second skill tree, ''Devastation'', enhances her ElementalPowers, with the final perk giving her a '''''flaming tornado'''''. Her final skill tree, ''Restoration'', makes her TheMedic, increasing her healing and damage in combat simultaneously.
23* AllLovingHero: Holy crap, is she this. Always cheery, always polite, never yells or gets angry with anyone, and never holds a grudge. Even when given the opportunity to [[spoiler:blow Suture's brains out because of his experiment of her for '''''ten years''''' she refused, as it "wasn't in her nature"]]. Even after [[spoiler: Dion's injuries]], it's still hinted she is this.
24* BadassAdorable: No denying this. Even though she is rather pacifistic in most of her interactions, you do '''not''' fuck with her when she gets serious, as [[spoiler:Masher and Jackal Cash figured out the hard way]]. She can summon ''tornadoes'' for God's sake, and do it with a broad smile on her face.
25* BadassFingersnap: She summons her tornado like this, usually in the middle of a dramatic moment to boot.
26* BuxomBeautyStandard: Explicitly stated to have a big bust on numerous occasions. Because ChildrenAreInnocent, she doesn't really seem to care about this or ever comment on it, though others are quick to do so...
27* ChildrenAreInnocent: Has no concept of sex at all, as she probably never took Sex-Ed, and doesn't fully understand sarcasm used against her.
28* CuteAndPsycho: [[spoiler:When she does get excited during her fights, she turns into this. A huge SlasherSmile, drops [[ClusterFBomb Cluster-F Bombs]] without pausing mid-sentence, and generally becoming downright terrifying to others around her. Thankfully, she does not use this side of her often, as she personally dislikes it]].
29* CutenessProximity: Damn near weaponized it. Gaige, Paula, Alan, Dion, Lilith, Vika Grieve, and even ''Wolfenstein'' either [[ImTakingHerHomeWithMe want to take her home with them]], gush over her like doting parents, or just melt.
30* HumanizingTears: [[spoiler:When she gets rescued the first time by Dion and co. she bursts into tears when she realizes they really do care about her. Partially TearsOfJoy and TearsOfRemorse, as while she just learned she now had a family, she also realized she had been the one who abandoned them, and all she wants is to go back to "Mommy".]]
31* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEXQGObRjV0 "We are broken"]] by {{Music/Paramore}}. Describes her [[spoiler: BrokenBird aspect of her personality, as well as her dependence on Dion for emotional stability]].
32* SweetTooth: '''Loves''' sweets with a passion, especially [[TrademarkFavoriteFood macaroons]].
33* TouchedByVorlons: Being a Siren, this is implied by their connections to the Eridians and the Vault. Her power involves summoning a huge tornado that slows and damages enemies.
34[[/folder]]
35
36[[folder:Lupus Cithara "The Gunsician"]]
37The second MadArtist of the Crimson Raiders, Lupus is closer to a MusicalAssassin compared to Paula, using his guitars as [[InstrumentOfMurder Instruments of Murder]] in combat. He is fairly dry and cynical, usually talking in a bland monotone voice about everything.
38
39His Action Skill, Rock and Roll, increases his DamageReduction while [[MightyGlacier super-charging his guns but sacrificing movement speed]]. His first skill tree, ''Metalcore'', makes him a close-range [[TheBerserker Berserker]] style of combatant. His second skill tree, ''Death'', increases his tanking abilities, adding even more DamageReduction and healing abilities to Rock and Roll. His final skill tree, ''Nu'', makes him into a pseudo-[[WhiteMage White Mage]] that can buff his allies and himself.
40* MadArtist: Less extreme than Paula for certain, but he still does believe that any fight he's in counts as a "symphony". He'll never let it be too obvious though, as he almost never indulges in [[LaughingMad Mad Laughter]] or [[SlasherSmile Slasher Smiles]], preferring a PerpetualFrowner, TranquilFury look instead.
41* MusicalAssassin: His guitars are his main weapons, using a variety of abilities installed into each one. This includes an air-cannon, explosive-melee axe, a tactical apply-and-detonate gel thrower, and a stunning/executing guitar.
42* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3FLpc-5yvM "Adrenalize"]] by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_This_Moment In This Moment]]. Describes a rockstar addicted to the fame and passion of their music and fans. Fitting.
43* TattooAsCharacterType: Has two crimson tear-lines running down from his eyes, making him similar to [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Ulquiorra Cifer]] in appearance. He got these tattoos when [[spoiler:he was critically ill and began bleeding from his eyes because of it. While he later got some IntimateHealing from Teresa Pangolin and survived, he tattooed them to his face to remember the time he spent with her]].
44[[/folder]]
45
46[[folder:Wolfenstein "The Hound"]]
47A Vice-Admiral in the Crimson Raiders, Wolfenstein is a wereskag, a former Hyperion experiment that was bought from the Jakobs company over the time span. He is a [[TheStoic Stoic]] PerpetualFrowner that always takes his job very seriously, rarely becoming emotional during his assignments. Despite his rough exterior, he cares deeply for his teammates and even has a few PetTheDog (no pun intended) moments, especially with Aurai. Later, it's revealed that [[spoiler:he is a repressed BloodKnight combined with [[ImAHumanitarian Humanitarian]] traits during his fight with Nitro. He chooses to hide this behind his stoic mask to not disturb his teammates and slack off his real duty, though he still has great control over this side of his personality regardless]]
48
49His Action Skill, Inner Wolf, transforms him into his full wereskag form, making him gain high melee damage and [[HealingFactor health regeneration]]. His first skill tree, ''Beast'', turns him into a [[TheBerserker Berserker]] with even more melee damage. His second skill tree, ''Combatant'', increases his [[TheGunslinger Gunslinging]] abilities, more specifically with pistols and sniper rifles. His final skill tree, ''Persistence'', makes him a LightningBruiser with a massive HealingFactor.
50* [[spoiler:BloodKnight: Is a repressed one at that, as he himself admits mentally. During a good fight, such as the one he had with Nitro, he gains a SlasherSmile, with his [[ImAHumanitarian Humanitarian]] traits turned up to eleven as he eats and slashes at his opponents]].
51* TheDreaded: When he really begins to fight, enemies begin to panic. [[spoiler:Even Mir, a psychotic MadGod, was absolutely terrified of him when he was fighting him alone]]. It really says a lot that he is the one who gets this treatment the most out of all the Vault Hunters.
52* [[spoiler:InterplayOfSexAndViolence: His "fight" with Mortem. It's written with the same excruciating detail as a lemon, and twice as disturbing, mainly because we've never seen such a side of him before]].
53* NervesOfSteel: When faced with certain death, he usually only reacts with a snarl and a fast gunshot.
54* NotSoStoic: [[spoiler:During his backstory, he openly began to weep and scream to his mentor (possibly even father) to not die and fight him some more]]. On occasions, it becomes obvious that he is merely hiding behind an emotionless mask.
55* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyctTU_0FiM "The Night"]] by Music/{{Disturbed}}. Describes his [[spoiler: BloodKnight tendencies and hyper-violent fighting style that saves his teammates on more than a few occasions]].
56* SilverFox: Like Saprus, he has grey hair. Unlike Saprus, his is more similar to salt-and-pepper and is far shorter, being a trimmed military buzz cut.
57* TheStoic: Rarely has any facial expressions, and tends to speak at a very level voice. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded by the narrators, as one of his biggest attractive features is his quiet confidence]].
58* TranquilFury: His combat style primarily uses this. He rarely does anything more than an annoyed snarl, preferring a constant [[PerpetualFrowner frown]] every time he fights.
59[[/folder]]
60
61[[folder:Saprus "The Infected"]]
62The oldest Vault Hunter (64 if you're curious) and infected with a Hyperion experimental disease called Plaque IX, Saprus is the WalkingWasteland of the Vault Hunters. For the first part of the initial story, he was always wearing his suit to prevent the death of his teammates by proximity, though later revealed he can take off the suit with certain medication for limited periods of time. When he did so, he revealed that he was a {{Bishonen}} SilverFox, which has caused much female attention and [[EvenTheGuysWantHim male attention]].
63
64His Action Skill, Plaque IX, fires a bolt of his disease to deal [=DPS=] to his enemies being very effective in this regard. His first skill tree, ''Reaper'', gives him balanced gun abilities that [[JackOfAllStats improve his combat in general]]. His second skill tree, ''Pestilence'', improves his disease's abilities and his HollywoodAcid powers. His final skill tree, ''Wraith'', allows him a unique compontent called Ethereal that grants him {{Intangibility}} and several bonuses as well.
65* DelicateAndSickly: Coughs on occasion rather violently, making Taika and any other person dolt over him. It's his main charm point, as many find him cute when he does so, activating internal motherly instincts.
66* LongHairedPrettyBoy: Has hair that goes past his shoulders, and is [[SilverFox as grey as a metal curtain]]. It makes the ladies go crazy.
67* IncurableCoughOfDeath: See above.
68* PrettyBoy: The most obvious example in this story, as numerous characters comment on his handsomeness and delicate looks. Even factoring in the grey hair and ''areas of rot around his eyes and temples'', many consider him attractive in a CuteButTroubled way. He doesn't agree personally, but is flattered by the attention.
69* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeI4Ft8P7ks "Broken"]] by Music/{{Seether}} and Music/{{Evanescence}}. Describes his feelings after losing his wife and the eternal pit of sadness that resulted from it.
70* ShipTease: With Taika. [[spoiler:They finally hooked up in the third DLC.]]
71* SilverFox: Remarkably handsome, with hair as grey as steel. Not to mention [[NiceGuy polite, caring]], and [[DepartmentofRedundancyDepartment handsome]].
72* WalkingWasteland: His disease makes him one. Everything around him will rot and decay like gaseous acid, as it has been compared to, and he can't do anything to stop it except contain it in a specially designed suit. Taking certain medications, however, can enable him to take off the suit and walk normally, which he tends to do outside of his combat duties.
73* WineIsClassy: Drinks wine frequently during his recreational periods, and it's even listed as his favorite food. All to make him appear more refined and older than everyone else.
74[[/folder]]
75
76[[folder:Dion Kormos "The Juggernaut"]]
77The Plasma Titan, Dion is TheBrute of the Crimson Raiders as well as the main tank of the group for the initial story and first DLC. A CelibateHero with a HairTriggerTemper, he tends to [[DisproportionateRetribution overreact]] to many situations. [[spoiler:Later loses the Celibate part when he hooks up with [[GenkiGirl Aurai]], though he is still embarrassed by some of the romantic aspects of their relationship, like kissing and cuddling]]. In combat he tends to be a BloodKnight / CombatSadomasochist, being completely fine with killing other people or taking damage for his teammates.
78
79His Action Skill, Plasma Rage, turns him into a [[EnergyWeapon laser-shooting]] LightningBruiser with [[HealingFactor massive regeneration]]. His first skill tree, ''Malice'', enables the usage of Malice stacks to increase his combat abilities for a short while. His second skill tree, ''Destruction'', improves his ElementalPowers with guns and Plasma Rage, turning him into a [=DPS=] machine. His final skill tree, ''Insanity'', improves his tanking and regeneration abilities to CombatSadomasochist levels, as he becomes more powerful the lower his health is.
80* BloodKnight: One of the more obvious examples in the story, as his Titan genetics make him more vulnerable to violence. Unlike most, he appears externally angry most of the time, shouting at the top of his lungs and roaring in rage during his battles.
81* CelibateHero: Despises romance and {{Fanservice}}, most likely out of child-like embarrassment. [[spoiler:Gets better after staring his relationship with Aurai, bordering on SickeninglySweethearts with her, much to his teammates' chagrin]].
82* CuteBruiser: [[BerserkButton Hates being called this]], but several people all agree that he is one.
83* GoodOldFisticuffs: When he gets in melee range, this is all he uses.
84* HairTriggerTemper: Has many [[BerserkButton Berserk Buttons]], to the point where he developed the aforementioned trope. The list includes:
85** Milk
86** Being caught in [[{{Fanservice}} "embarrassing" situations]]
87** [[BigBrotherInstinct Bothering Aurai]]
88** Running out of rum
89** Being called cute
90** [[TheNapoleon Being called short]]
91* HealingFactor / GoodThingYouCanHeal: Due to his high regeneration, he is frequently up-front in the group and taking the shots. Almost always he makes it through without even sinking to a knee, a testament to his Titan vitality.
92** [[spoiler:Subverted during his second encounter with Jackal Cash, as he became HalfTheManHeUsedToBe and is still undergoing recovery in the hospital]].
93* LightningBruiser: Moves remarkably fast due to his small size, takes a ton of damage, and dishes out just as much in turn to his enemies. Probably one of the best heroic examples in the story.
94* LuminescentBlush: Whenever he gets caught in MarshmallowHell by Tina or anything similar, he gets one of these. He isn't proud of it either.
95* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's five feet tall (155 cm), but he's one of the physically strongest members of the Vault Hunters. He hits like a ton of bricks with his fists, amplified by his plasma abilities, and is apparently MadeOfIron judging by his injuries.
96* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sMgsC8kVOBI "Fight Inside"]] by Music/{{Red|Band}}. Describes his internal struggle to deal with his emotions, more specially his anger, and how difficult it is for him to accomplish. Also describes [[spoiler:his dependence on Aurai, as she calms him down significantly just by her presence]].
97* [[spoiler:SickeninglySweethearts: Amusingly, him and Aurai turn into this later. His team is notably annoyed by this, though only Alan calls them out on this]].
98* UnskilledButStrong: Has little in the way of tactics or firearms, but is frighteningly effective in hand-to-hand combat.
99[[/folder]]
100
101[[folder:Baldemar Rodriguez "The Legionnaire"]]
102The local GadgeteerGenius of the Vault Hunters, Baldemar is actually a wanted man because of his inventions. He is BrilliantButLazy, as he often tends to relax and never take things seriously, but is a deadly force in combat with his gadgets. Also prone to [[DeadpanSnarker Deadpan Snarking]] quite often, though he usually does not mean it maliciously.
103* GadgeteerGenius: His main hat, as he invented the Combat Clone system that he uses in combat. He even upgrades it through his skill trees, his upgrades being [[SlidingScaleOfGameplayAndStoryIntegration one of the more visible signs of the characters leveling up.]]
104* GeniusBruiser: Is exceptionally good in a fight with his guns, and can outsmart most opponents in tactics.
105* TheLeader: Outright was the first leader of the Vault Hunter team during the initial story, though later handed the title to Wolfenstein during the latter's return in the second DLC. Shares traits with the Mastermind, Levelheaded, and Charismatic, though mostly the first one due to his IQ.
106* TokenMinority: Is the ''only'' black guy in the 3rd generation. Subverted, due to the fact that Ningyo is probably some kind of Asian, Aurai, Suture, Dion and Hemera are all Titans/Sirens and Mortem and Alan aren't even fully human.
107[[/folder]]
108
109[[folder:Simo Hathcock "The Longshot"]]
110Making a minor appearance in the second DLC as a side character, Simo is an independent mercenary [[spoiler:though he may change his status later in the story due to the character information provided about him prior to introduction]]. He is a rather humble and meek person externally, but has been hinted to be hiding his true strength from others. One of the few true [[NiceGuy Nice Guys]]in the story, as he is very polite and kind to everyone, at least what's been shown so far.
111
112His Action Skill, Siege Charge, adds 3 Siege Counters that he can use to [[WhiteMage heal his teammates over time]] or deal [=DPS=] to enemies. His first skill tree, ''Physican'', adds even more healing abilities as well as support. His second skill tree, ''Sniper'', adds [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin sniping abilities]], from simple damage bonuses to ImprobableAimingSkills to his arsenal. His final skill tree, ''Technical Pacifism'', allows him to deal more [=DPS=] to his enemies, adding different ElementalPowers to his Siege Counters as well.
113* LetsGetDangerous: When he wants to kill you, he will '''kill''' you. Daedalus figured that out the hard way.
114* MeaningfulName: Both of his names are from famous snipers (Simo Hayha and Carlos Hathcock). Hell, even his nickname Red Death is just a reword of Simo Hayha's nickname White Death.
115* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: His nickname is '''Red Death'''. One wonders how he could've gotten such a nickname, and why it got so infamous.
116* NiceGuy: One of the few straight examples, with no DeadpanSnarker or AloofBigBrother traits to counter this.
117* TranquilFury: Daedalus brought this out of him. It seems to be the reason why he's named Red Death, as he killed his opponent effortlessly when he got this far.
118[[/folder]]
119
120[[folder:Cecilia The Komodo "The Mesmer"]]
121Cecilia the Komodo is one of the top Syndicate members and the replacement for Edward [[spoiler:when he gets kicked out of the competition due to property damages]] in the third DLC. She appears to simply be TheStoner, but more may reveal itself in time.
122
123Her Action Skill, Illusion Shatter, constantly creates illusions around her that distract the enemy but deal no damage at all, but with a button press she can turn them into [[ActionBomb Action Bombs]] that deal more damage the more Counters were used up. Her first skill tree, ''Mirage'', causes her Illusion Shatter and regular combat to turn into ConfusionFu, disorienting her enemies and making it harder for them to hurt her or her teammates. Her second skill tree, ''Caustic'', grants significant bonuses for [[SelfHarm being corroded with acid]], mostly surrounding the usage of said acid in her Elemental weapons. Her final skill tree, ''Avoidance'', increases her DeflectorShields property to its maximum levels, at the cost of SelfHarm imposed through its health costs.
124* TheStoner: Implied by her quotes, hobbies, and theme song. Now completely confirmed. Her introductory chapter was even titled Blaze It.
125* RealSongThemeTune: "Addictive" by RoyalRepublic. Describes an obsessive relationship with either a significant other or some kind of drug, both of which would likely fit her personality (if only we knew it).
126[[/folder]]
127
128[[folder:Alan Fitzgerald "The Minster"]]
129Appearing during the first [=DLC=], Alan is a [[BlackKnight Grave Knight]]-turned-[[ChurchMilitant paladin]] in the service of the Church of Mercy. He is no longer an official member of the church, but he still carries around his cross and his [[BayonetYa bayonets]] to fight with. As a Grave Knight, he has passive immortality and can use the DangerousForbiddenTechnique of the Church without worrying about dying (as he's already dead).
130
131His Action Skill, Evil Angel, gives him [[PowerGivesYouWings wings]] and turns him into a LightningBruiser, with more gun damage, melee damage and movement speed. His first skill tree, ''Holy'', taps into his WhiteMage side and adds several utility abilities as well. His second skill tree, ''Inquisitor'', turns him into a JackOfAllStats with several gun techniques and abilities for general combat. His final skill tree, ''Zealot'', lets him get within melee range [[TheBerserker berserker style]] and tear his enemies apart, dealing insane damage to them with ease.
132* BayonetYa: His prime weapons of fighting within melee range. Are nearly a foot long and can be used for swordfighting.
133* BlackKnight: Being a Grave Knight is a lot like this. The only reason he got kicked out was a misunderstanding from his master Grave Lord Arlon, falsely accusing him of treason and exiling him. Alan is still sore about this, though he doesn't appear to want to go back.
134* ChurchMilitant: The Church of Mercy appears to be like this, and Alan was once a priest there, so...
135* TheGadfly: ''Loves'' screwing with other people, from stealing Gaige's bras while she's sleeping to assembling a huge hand to smack people with straight out of ''Series/{{Jackass}}''. Gaige seems to be his main target, though anyone is susceptible to this.
136* KnightTemplar: Zig-zagged. He will hunt a "heathen" without mercy or pity, though his definition of a heathen so far has remained ambiguous. He's only called a few people that, so it's likely he is just using the term as a term alone.
137* ShownTheirWork: Actually quotes Bible verses correctly (for the most part, all verses vary upon translation anyway) while in combat or not.
138* SirSwearsALot: His language is ''atrocious'', even compared to other Vault Hunters, though he gets better as the story goes on. Not by much, but still better.
139[[/folder]]
140
141[[folder:Mortem "The Necromancer"]]
142Appearing in the second [=DLC=] as the first boss, Mortem is actually [[spoiler:the daughter of Grave Lord Arlon, which explains why he wanted to want her captured alive]]. She appears to be a LovableSexManiac with an attachment to Wolfenstein, though he is [[{{Squick}} Squicked]] out by the prospect due to her [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld really young body]].
143
144Her Action Skill, Raise Dead, create undead zombies that fight for her, all of the skill trees being impacted by the number of minions she summons. Her first skill tree, ''WhiteMage'', is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, giving her healing and buffs. Her second skill tree, ''Minion Master'', makes her into StoneWall. Her final skill tree, ''Warlock'', increases her ElementalPowers and utility abilities in combat.
145* TheAlcoholic: Can drink more than any other person in the story, capping in at over '900' beers without passing out. They say it has something to do with being immortal, but Suture didn't even want to begin opening that can of worms.
146* LovableSexManiac: How lovable is up to debate, but the girl does not hide her attraction to Wolfenstein or others. Her quotes make this even more obvious, flirting with Dion, Saprus, and Aurai.
147* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She was turned into a Grave Knight as a teenager, and that was a long time ago. It was so far she even became sexually active despite her young body.
148[[/folder]]
149
150[[folder:Bartholomew Lowe "The Pirate"]]
151Making a minor appearance in the second DLC as a side character, Bartholomew is still an independent pirate captain [[spoiler:though he may change his status later in the story due to the character information provided about him prior to introduction]]. He is a fearsome pirate captain with robotic enhancements on his arm and leg, making him tower over other people intimidatingly. Despite this, he secretly is a GentleGiant who is a FriendToAllChildren, as shown in his interaction with Aurai.
152
153His Action Skill, Cannon Shot, fires a huge blast of air pressure to [[BlownAcrossTheRoom throw his enemies back and stun them]], all while dealing massive damage. His first skill tree, ''Assault'', enables Destruction stacks that amplify his Cannon Shot ability, making it deal more damage per stack and capable of intense burst damage. His second skill tree, ''Tactics'', increases his ammo to BottomlessMagazines size and allows for more usage of Cannon Shot for strategic purposes. His final skill tree, ''Courage'', turns him into a DeflectorShields tank capable of taking a ton of damage and get back to full shields faster.
154* AnArmAndALeg: Both his right arm and leg have been replaced by metallic prosthetic. No details have been given to ''why'', but it could be literally anything considering his shady past.
155* BoisterousBruiser: Turns out to be his real personality. He uses TheStoic as a guise so others do not underestimate him.
156* TheCaptain: Leads a pirate crew known as the Lowe Pirates, most likely after his own last name.
157* DressedToPlunder: Averted for the most part, with only the bandana part still being a component of his outfit.
158* GentleGiant: When Aurai pumps into him and spills ice cream on his metal leg, he calmly apologizes (despite it not being his fault) and gives her money to buy even more ice cream than she had originally. He's also the tallest Vault Hunter at 7' 6", or 195 centimeters.
159* MeaningfulName: Named after two famous pirates (Bartholomew Roberts and Edward Lowe respectively).
160* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXoZsgNHquM "You Are A Pirate"]] by {{Music/Alestorm}}. Pretty much ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, a song about how he is a pirate.
161[[/folder]]
162
163[[folder:Taika "The Predator"]]
164The LadyOfWar SilkHidingSteel huntress of the Vault Hunters, Taika possesses ImprobablyAimingSkills to an insane degree. Despite her role as the markswoman, she is a FriendlySniper for the most part, though she does border on DeadpanSnarker quite a lot when around Dion or Baldemar. Joined the Vault Hunters to become the next El Cazador, the best hunter in the universe, [[spoiler:which she obtained from Mordecai during the initial story. It's hinted that she only stays now because of loyalty and [[ShipTease Saprus]]]].
165
166Her Action Skill, Roosevelt, summons a digitally constructed wyvern that shoots laser beams and flies around in her defense. Her first skill tree, ''Beast Proficiency'', adds bonuses to Roosevelt and tunring her into TheBeastmaster. Her second skill tree, ''Critical'', increases her sniping abilities, adding [[PoisonedWeapons poison]], bullet reflections, and more critical hit damage. Her final skill tree, ''Intuition'', is to turn her into a JackOfAllStats meant to survive long fights, making her far more sustainable while solo.
167* DeadpanSnarker: Even compared to Baldemar, she is this. She loves commenting on how utterly stupid her teammates' actions are, though she'll just as soon praise them for their efforts.
168* FriendlySniper: A fairly good example, considering how she's almost the TeamMom among the first group.
169* GoodBadGirl: Discusses her sexual interests to others freely, and makes little effort to hide it. Granted, around Wolfenstein and Saprus, she obtains a CrushBlush and even ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend traits when Saprus is involved.
170* LadyOfWar: Despite being a rugged outdoorswoman and sniper, she has this personality. Very calm and graceful, though still has her emotional reactions at certain points.
171* ShipTease: With Saprus. [[spoiler:They finally hooked up in the third DLC.]]
172* TeamMom: When blows come to blows, she's usually the one who tries to sort it out among the team. She's NotSoAboveItAll though, as she gets mad on occasions as well.
173[[/folder]]
174
175[[folder:Suture "The Surgeon"]]
176Appearing during the first DLC as a boss, he eventually [[HeelFaceTurn joins the Crimson Raiders]] out of mutual interests. The second resident MadDoctor (Doctor Zed being a bit more stable), Suture also has dashes of MadScientist due to his experiments that extend past the biological. He also is in love with [[GRatedDrug chocolate]], constantly chewing on a piece of it and carrying it around in his pockets to always have a supply on hand.
177
178His Action Skill, Blood Rage, makes him use BloodyMurder powers CastFromHitPoints alongside a massive HealingFactor. His first skill tree, ''Butchery'', turns him into a surrogate GlassCannon, dealing more damage and decreasing his defenses. His second skill tree, ''Medicine'', improves his healing powers and team buffing abilities, turning him into a WhiteMage of sorts. His final skill tree, ''Frankenstein'', causes him to electrocute himself constantly to gain significant power bonuses, making him a sort-of CombatSadomasochist.

180* BloodyMurder: Uses his blood as bullets, blades, and even miniature bombs to some extent, making him remarkably similar to numerous characters from ''Manga/DeadmanWonderland''.
181* {{Expy}}: With his BloodyMurder powers, he is ''very'' close to characters from ''Manga/DeadmanWonderland'', though his personality is more similar to Doctor Franken Stein from ''Manga/SoulEater''.
182** His obsession with chocolate also resembles [[Manga/DeathNote L Lawliet's]] obsession with sweets, combined with their socially-awkward tendencies and odd mannerisms.
183* MadDoctor: Directly called a doctor, but notorious for being utterly insane when he begins cutting with his scalpel. [[spoiler:Slightly subverted when he reveals he feels guilt for what he did to Aurai, as most [[MadDoctor Mad Doctors]] have little to no sympathy to their victims]].
184* MadScientist: Comes with being an experimental surgeon and doctor. [[spoiler:After all, he experimented on Aurai [[ItAmusedMe just because he could]], with little justification to doing so. Subverted like MadDoctor above, with his guilt towards his actions making him appear more humane]].
185* OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank: Bleeds ''gallons'' of blood during his techniques, as his main power uses blood as a weapon. Of course, being a Titan also helps with his ability to generate so much blood so easily, especially being the Blood Titan.
186* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tBaMlAUj08 "Institutionalized"]] by {{Music/SuicidalTendencies}}. Describes his violent and eccentric insanity and how much he denies it.
187* TheStoic: Dear Lord, he's almost as bad as Wolfenstein. [[spoiler:Unlike Wolfenstein, the story takes great efforts to expose that he's simply a very emotional man with NoSocialSkills. His heartfelt confession to Aurai and genuine affection to Nurse Katelyn are the most obvious examples.]]
188* TheyCallHimSword: Sutures are stitches used after surgery to keep damaged tissue together. While not technically a weapon, Suture does make usage of these quite often, especially if the scars on his body are anything to go by.

191[[folder:Ningyo Torikku "The Trickster"]]
192Appearing in the second DLC as a side character, Ningyo is currently helping the Vault Hunters defeat Cassius's army after his GreatEscape from prison. It's unknown what he'll do after these events, though it's likely he will join them permanently due to the character information on him.
193
194His Action Skill, Puppet Master, uses strings to control an enemy for a limited time, making him an effective MarionetteMaster. His first skill tree, ''Influence'', adds WhiteMage style benefits to controlling his teammates. His second skill tree, ''Marionettes'', increases crowd control abilities and Puppet Master. His final skill tree, ''Rogue'', enables the usage of Shealth stacks, which increase evasiveness (decreases enemy aggro) and melee damage, and only goes away when firing a gun, making him a StealthExpert {{Ninja}}.
195* ArtificialLimbs: His hands are made of metal and allow him to wield his RazorFloss that can control other people.
196* AmbiguouslyGay: Makes a joke about how he did oral with a black guy (to explain why he can hold his breath for five minutes). His quotes don't help him much either, and the people he wishes to fight in his character information are all male.
197* MarionetteMaster: His tool of the trade uses this, being able to control his enemies for a limited time to fight on his side.
198* {{Ninja}}: Wears an all black jumpsuit and sneaks through the shadows to smash peoples' heads in with any melee weapon he can find. Of course, his outfit is also {{Stripperiffic}}, though that's to be expected out of him.
199* RazorFloss: Implied through his perks, as certain perks can add damage to applying and releasing his strings from targets.

202[[folder:Hemera "The Vanguard"]]
203Hemera is the Light Siren and one of the top Syndicate members as well, being given the title "Helios". She is a sarcastic {{Jerkass}} who constantly belittles and undermines those around her for no obvious reason. Despite this, she is more than willing to aid other people and never complains about doing so.
204
205Her Action Skill, Phasesprint, increasing her movement speed tremendously while also causing her to deal damage to those around her, as well as making her completely invulnerable. Her first skill tree, ''Renegade'', makes her a close-range [[TheBerserker Berserker]] style of combatant and increasing her [[SuperSpeed movement speed]]. Her second skill tree, ''Adrenaline'', enables the usage of Adrenaline stacks, increasing [[MoreDakka weapon fire rate]] for a brief period of time upon dealing damage, as well as adding various bonuses to her gun abilities. Her final skill tree, ''Supernatural'', uses ElementalPowers to their fullest extent, also adding bonus to her unique [[NonElemental Light Damage]], which cannot be resisted but is not super-effective.
206* DeadpanSnarker: Possibly the number one example now, as she doesn't pull any punches with her words.
207* {{Jerkass}}: Implied through her quotes. Now confirmed in the story.
208* RealSongThemeTune: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTaJLO74EWU "Nobody Likes Me"]] by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuce_(singer) Deuce]]. ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin, a song about how other people don't like her and how they can go to Hell.
209* SuperSpeed: Being the Light Siren, she literally moves at the speed of light. She could probably give Nitro a run for his money.
210* TouchedByVorlons: Being a Siren, this is implied by their connections to the Eridians and the Vault. Her power involves making herself invincible and dealing damage to those around her constantly.
