{{tropelist}}
* [[And Your Reward Is Clothes]]: Various outfits are unlocked throughout, such as a reference to the [[Chzo Mythos|source material]], an outfit to [[Harder Than Hard|make you all but visible when not pressed against the wall in complete darkness]], an outfit to [[Easier Than Easy|eliminate all alarm and taser limits]], or an outfit which, combined with the right perk, makes you completely invisible, [[Game Breaker|even in full light]].
** That said, though, both said outfit and the perk are difficult to get. In order to get the outfit, you need to Trilby-rank every normal heist, which only leaves the {{spoiler|bonus heist}} that you might not have completed yet, to use it on, and the perk costs a ''lot'' of reputation points. Still worth it, though.
Line 12:
** Well, except when he was beaten up, captured, tied up and subjected to brainwashing, of course.
* [[Brainwashed]]: Almost befalls {{spoiler|Trilby.}}
* [[Call a Hit Point Aa Smeerp]]: Although Trilby gets money from his various heists, he never actually does anything with it. Instead, in-game skill upgrades are purchased with "Reputation Points," which he earns for particularly impressive exploits.
* [[Call Forward]]: In the best ending, Trilby decides {{spoiler|to go back to England and start breaking into manors of the recently deceased}}, figuring it would be safer. He does this in [[Chzo Mythos|5 Days A Stranger]]: {{spoiler|it [[Cosmic Horror Story|backfires]] '''[[And I Must Scream|horribly]]'''}}.
* [[Coat, Hat, Mask]]: Trilby.
