Recruits

Katja

(Resident Medic)

• Blood From the Mouth When Katja is struck in the face, she spits blood out and informs the BLU Engineer that she 'bit her tongue'. Whether she really did bite her tongue or the Engineer actually caused some major damage is unknown.
• Feminine Women Can Cook Subverted. Katja is a brash, brazen tomboy.
• Multigenerational Household Katja lives with her older and younger brother, parents, and family friends in one house because of Germany's recession.
• Sweet Tooth

Lukas

(Scout)

• Brother-Sister Team Subverted. Scouts and Medics aren't a good combination, in-game or otherwise.

Zach

(Pyro)

• Redheaded Hero Zach jokingly calls himself a ginger, which leads to Katja bestowing upon him the unfortunate nickname 'Ginger'.

BLU Team

The Medic

(Name: Heilwig)

• Conveniently an Orphan Implied in Chapter 4 when he receives no mail when everyone else does. It could also be a case of Abusive Parents.
• Herr Doktor Subverted. He has a heavy accent, but he states that he has trouble understanding Diethelm.
• Kubrick Stare Performs this, almost exactly as described, in chapter 4.
• Major Injury Underreaction Very canon for the Medic. He does not seem overly concerned about his major burns.
• Self-Stitching Bandages and treats his own wounds in Chapter 4. Justified in that he is the only Medic for the BLU Team.

The Heavy

(Name: Evgeniy)

• Parental Substitute Implied to be one to Heilwig in Chapter 4.

The Soldier (Name: goes by John)

• Positive Discrimination He appears to treat Leah better than the others, but this could be more related to the fact that she's also a crazed patriot and soldier and he naturally respects her more.

The Scout

(Name: Alex)

The Engineer

(Name: William)

• Wouldn't Hit a Girl Subverted. He says this, but then he punches Katja in the face.

The Demoman

(Name: Aiden)

The Spy

(Name: Sébastien)

The Sniper

(Name: Cameron)

The Pyro

(Name:)

Recruits

Logan

(Sniper)

• Not the Fall That Kills You Averted. Logan is knocked out of the Sniper battlement by the RED Spy. He tries to grab at a ledge, ends up breaking his arm, then just dies from fall damage when he hits the ground.

James

(Spy)

• Hitman with a Heart

Leah: Too high. Was that a backstab or a stab in the neck? Didn't the Spy teach you how to do it? James: I thought it'd be less painful and much quicker if I went higher...

Leah

(Soldier/Private)

• Big Beautiful Woman When compared to the older soldier, she is described as being 'somewhat slighter' than the muscular, stocky man. This is justified in that a Soldier class carries heavy weaponry and would need to have considerable strength to do so.
• Bob Haircut
• Military Brat Her parents are unknown, but is a soldier, and John the BLU Soldier seems to treat her as a child or a little sister.
• Morality Pet Possibly one to the BLU Soldier.
