Line 21:
* [[Reluctant Warrior]]: Never wanted to rule Perdido Beach, but the choice was between him and the people who did want to, who weren’t the [[The Sociopath|best]] [[Complete Monster|candidates.]]
* [[Shoot the Dog]]: Often called upon to do this.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: A very minor version before the series starts. Apparently followed Astrid home on at least one occasion.
* {{spoiler|[[They Do]]: With Astrid in ''Fear''.}}
* [[Ultimate Authority Mayor]]: In ''Hunger''.
Line 50:
Called Pete, Petey, or Little Pete. Astrid's younger brother, Little Pete suffers from very severe autism, rendering him mostly incapable of communication, which hides what is probably the FAYZ's highest-ranking power.
 
* {{spoiler|[[Ascend to Aa Higher Plane of Existence]]}}
* [[Berserk Button]]: Astrid being threatened is enough to get a reaction out of him.
* [[Disability Superpower]]
Line 65:
* [[Awesomeness By Analysis]]: Manages to come up with a working economy using an eighth grade education and an encyclopedia.
* [[Black and Nerdy]]: Implied to have been this before the FAYZ.
* [[Good Withwith Numbers]]: And economics in general.
* [[Greed]]: His main vice.
* [["No Respect" Guy]]: Subverted. While not everyone admits his importance, almost everyone recognizes that he holds the real power, at least in Plague.
Line 81:
* [[Healing Hands]]: Her power.
* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Starting to suffer from this.
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]
* [[Love Triangle]]: [[Badass Normal|Edilio]], [[The Chick|Quinn]], and {{spoiler|[[Third Option Love Interest|Sanjit]]}} have one revolving around her, although it's a pretty minor subplot and only hinted at in Edilio's case, and definitely not going anywhere there, what with him and the Artful Roger.
* [[The Medic]]: A superpowered one, no less.
Line 144:
* [[Dirty Coward]]: At first, he hides behind Orc and switches sides at his own convenience. Later seems to be developing some courage, though.
* [[The Dragon]]: To Orc.
* [[Fun Withwith Acronyms]]: Most nicknames in the series (e.g. the FAYZ, Zekes, etc.) are his doing.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Changes to Sam's side with Orc in ''Gone'' when he thinks it's the smarter move.
* [[Jerkass]]: Especially in ''Gone'', where it takes a physical threat from Mary to convince him to arrange to get food for a bunch of toddlers.
Line 164:
 
* [[Promotion to Parent]]: At nine.
* [[What Happened to Thethe Mouse?]]: How are you reacting to {{spoiler|your only remaining family member's suicide}}? Not at all? Okay . . .
 
'''Duck Zhang'''
Line 236:
* [[Morality Pet]]: [[Dark Chick|Diana]] acts as this for him {{spoiler|until he spends a whole book [[Kick the Morality Pet|kicking said morality pet]].}}
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]
* [[Name of Cain|Name of Caine]]: [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|Well . . .]]
* {{spoiler|[[Separated Atat Birth]]}}: With Sam.
* [[The Sociopath]]: According to [[Word of God]].
* {{spoiler|[[Teen Pregnancy]]: Gets Diana in this situation}}.
Line 412:
* [[The Ditz]]
* [[Fantastic Racism]]
* [[What Happened to Thethe Mouse?]]: {{spoiler|With the rest of the Crew [[Killed Off for Real]] or serving Caine}}, we have no idea what happened to her.
