==  Vessalius Household ==

* [[Feuding Families]]: With the Nightrays. (Though, lately, the heirs of the respective families have agreed to do something about this.)

=== Oz Vessalius ===
[[File:51527 4060.jpg|frame]]

The 15 year-old protagonist. Easy-going and generally a cheerful kid. {{spoiler|Not.}} Is cast into the Abyss by the red-cloaked [[Shinigami]] for a 'sin'--[[All Crimes Are Equal|his very existence]]. His Chain is B-Rabbit (Alice), short for [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Blood-Stained Black Rabbit]].  {{spoiler|In fact he ''is'' B-Rabbit, using Jack's body.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Abusive Parents]]: His dad is a dick.}}
* [[Adorkable]]: At times.
*  {{spoiler|[[Animate Inanimate Object]]: He was originally a pair of stuffed [[Everythings Better With Bunnies|rabbit dolls]] owned by Lacie. The Abyss gave him sentience, allowing him to exist as [[Hive Mind|a single consciousness between both bodies.]]}}
* [[Attractive Bent Gender]]:
** When he dresses up as a maid, [[Even the Guys Want Him|Gil says he looks "gorgeous"]] and a male servant of the Barma household seems to approve as well.
** Also [[Meido]] with his and Alice's disguises.
* [[Berserk Button]]: Just try doing anything to Alice, especially as the series progresses.
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Especially if you hurt Alice.
* [[Break the Cutie]]: Seems to zigzag around this trope. Getting stuck in the Abyss didn't break him as much as {{spoiler|accidentally stabbing Gilbert before that.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Conditioned to Accept Horror]]}}
* [[Cute Shotaro Boy]]: Not by choice.
* [[Creepy Child]]: Break even points it out.
* [[Cross-Dressing Voices]]
* [[Devoted to You]]: ''"Alice is my sun."''
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]
* [[Even the Guys Want Him]]
* [[For the Lulz]]: Occasionally.
* [[Generation Xerox]]: To the point that {{spoiler|he looks like a near-exact copy of young Jack. Justified in that "his" body is actually Jack's.}}
* [[Green Eyes]]
* [[Hair of Gold]]
* {{spoiler|[[Hair-Raising Hare]]: As B-Rabbit.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hive Mind]]: Back when he was an [[Animate Inanimate Object]] he split his consciousness between the stuffed rabbit in the Abyss and the other rabbit outside of it. This ended when he transferred Lacie's last memory to Jack, destroying his rabbit body in the real world. His other body became the chain B-Rabbit.}}
* [[I Owe You My Life]]: Retrace LXXI reveals that he felt this way towards {{spoiler|Lacie, who gave him "life" when he was just B-Rabbit.}}
* [[I Will Protect Her]]: Towards Alice. {{spoiler|This is rooted from his promise to protect her while he was still Oz the B-Rabbit.}}
* [[Junko Minagawa]]
* [[Keet]]: {{spoiler|Subverted.}}
* [[Kidanova]]
* [[Kid with the Leash]]: Even though Alice treats him like he's the servant, Oz is the one in control.
* {{spoiler|[[Killer Rabbit]]: Considering he is actually B-Rabbit.}}
* [[Love Makes You Crazy]]: He'll do ''anything'' for Alice. {{spoiler|Will go temporarily insane after witnessing human!Alice's death. Will tear apart the Abyss and almost ''Alice herself'' to get rid of anything that hurts her.}}
* [[The Messiah]]
* [[Parental Abandonment]]
* [[Powers Via Possession]]: Through Alice {{spoiler|and ironically, Jack to Oz in later chapters.}}
* [[Psychotic Smirk]]: Occasionally pops up either when he's really pissed off, revealing his underlying personality, or trying to freak people out.
* {{spoiler|[[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Recently, his eyes turn red whenever using B-Rabbit's power. Or when he was B-Rabbit, for that matter.}}
* [[The Reveal]]: {{spoiler|He's really B-Rabbit and his "body" is actually Jack's.}}
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Connections]]: He uses his connection to Jack as this.
* {{spoiler|[[Sinister Scythe]]}}: Later uses one after {{spoiler|he usurps Alice's power and also when he was still B-Rabbit.}}
* [[Spoiled Sweet]]
* {{spoiler|[[Stepford Smiler]]}}: Let's face it: with that kind of past, it's not strange that he's this.
* {{spoiler|[[Super-Powered Evil Side]]: B-Rabbit mode kicks in and he's going to slash up your asses with his [[Badass]] scythe.}}
* [[Teens Are Short]]: When you were stuck in the Abyss for ten years, it's only natural to stay short.
* {{spoiler|[[Tomato in the Mirror]]: Retrace LXX states that his body isn't really his own, and that he is actually B-Rabbit.}}
*  {{spoiler|[[We Named the Monkey "Jack"|We Named The Rabbit Oz]]: Alice named him after Oswald.}}
* [[When She Smiles]]: In which [[Little Miss Snarker|Alice]] smiles/does cute things and Oz blushes/laughs.
* [[Wise Beyond Their Years]]: Probably due to the parental abandonment, his bookworm tendencies, and being raised as the heir of Vessalius House.  {{spoiler|He's actually been alive since before the Tragedy of Sablier, though he doesn't remember it until Jack triggers his memories.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Yandere]]}}:
** As a {{spoiler|[[Subverted]] [[Keet]]}}, he is this for {{spoiler|[[Bratty Half-Pint|Alice]].}}
{{quote|'''Oz:''' Alice, don't cry. Whoever makes you sad, whoever hurts you, I will destroy them. All of them... With my own hands!}}
** He was already {{spoiler|yandere for her}} from back when he almost {{spoiler|tore apart the Abyss in order to get rid of everything that hurts Alice and causes fear within her, including [[Love Makes You Crazy|Alice herself]].}} As listed above under [[Devoted to You]], he even calls Alice his ''sun''.

=== Jack Vessalius ===
[[File:98585 5456.jpg|frame]]

The hero of the Tragedy of Sabliér. {{spoiler|Currently resides within Oz's body, while his 'real' body was <s>mutilated</s> and split into 5 pieces which work as a seal to contain Glen Baskerville... or so we thought.}} Possibly based on Lewis Carroll.

* [[Adult Child]]
* {{spoiler|[[Always Save the Girl]]: It's become evidently clear that he values Lacie above ''everything and everyone.''}}
* [[Badass Longcoat]]
*  {{spoiler|[[Bastard Bastard]]: He was the son of a concubine from the Vessalius household. And he basically wants to send the world into the Abyss.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Because You Were Nice to Me]]: His obsession with Lacie stems from from this.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Beneath the Mask]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Berserk Button]]: Glen/Oswald's attempt at uncovering his true nature provokes him into throwing his drink in Oswald's face. In a flashback in Retrace LXX, he gets inwardly pushed when Glen tells him that it's impossible to bring Lacie back from the Abyss.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Big Bad]]: Seems to be shaping up as this in recent chapters since it's been revealed that ''he's'' the one who caused the Tragedy of Sabliér.}}
* [[Bishounen]]
* [[Blood Spattered Innocents]]: Gets one courtesy of {{spoiler|Lacie}} and some thugs.
* {{spoiler|[[Broken Pedestal]]:}} To pretty much everyone who believed in him. Including those who {{spoiler|trusted him such as Vincent.}}
* [[The Charmer]]
* [[The Chessmaster]]: A [[Mysterious Protector|benevolent]] variant. {{spoiler|[[Evil All Along|Except not really]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Determinator]]: He succumbed to murder, theft, and prostitution in order to reunite with Lacie, and he will do whatever it takes to bring Lacie back from the dead. When that doesn't work? He will do whatever it takes to fulfill what he's convinced himself into believing is Lacie's "wish"--which is bringing the world to Lacie in the Abyss because she loves the world so much.}}
* [[Daisuke Ono]]
* [[Devoted to You]]: To his duty to prevent another great tragedy. To protecting his best friend Glen's reputation and saving his soul. To Alice, whom he refers to as a [[Your Mileage May Vary|most-precious]] [[Lolicon|person]]. {{spoiler|Which is quite doubtful as of late. [[Yandere|His devotion to Lacie, on the other hand...]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Dogged Nice Guy]]: To Lacie. Subverted in Retrace LXXII; when given the chance, he never crossed the line in their relationship.}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Dulcinea Effect]]: Towards Lacie. He only briefly meets her before his obsession kicks in, [[Because You Were Nice to Me|all because she was nice to him]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Evil All Along]]: The "evil" part is debatable, but he was still the true instigator of the Tragedy of Sablier.}}
* [[Face Framed in Shadow]]: Up until his formal introduction.
* [[The Faceless]]: Up until he formally introduces himself to Pandora and Oz's gang.
* {{spoiler|[[False Friend]]: To Glen/Oswald. He acts as Oswald's friend in order to be near Lacie and only sticks around the Baskervilles post-Lacie's death to learn more about the Abyss in hopes of bringing Lacie back from the dead.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Faux Affably Evil]]}}
* [[Grand Theft Me]]: {{spoiler|He can hijack Oz's body if the situation calls for it. Subverted in that Oz's "body" turned out to be Jack's all along.}}
* [[Green Eyes]]
* [[Hair of Gold]]: {{spoiler|Subverted.}}
** {{spoiler|[[Blond Guys Are Evil]]}}
* {{spoiler|1=[[Hannibal Lecture]]/[["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Cruelly delivers one to Oz in Retrace LXX. Subverted in that all his words are, in a sense, [[Exact Words|true]].}}
{{quote|{{spoiler|'''Jack:''' This body does not belong... to Oz Vessalius. Nothing can belong to someone like you. You can't achieve anything. You can't become anything. You can't! You just can't! Because you are nothing... You are nothingness... Because you destroy everything!}}}}
* [[He Who Must Not Be Seen]]: Up until he reveals himself after the Cheshire arc.
* {{spoiler|[[Heroic BSOD]]: When he learns that Lacie has died and after he sees Lacie's last memory.}}
* [[Heroic Spirit]]: {{spoiler|Subverted. It's become doubtful as of late on whether he's really heroic.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hidden Depths]]: Turns out he isn't just the princely hero everyone makes him out to be.}}
* {{spoiler|[[I Love You Because I Can't Control You]]: In spite of finding out that Lacie initially doesn't remember him, he doesn't particularly mind ''because'' he admires Lacie all the more for how free-spirited she is and how she can't be tied down by anything.}}
* {{spoiler|[[I Owe You My Life]]: Feels this way about Lacie to the point where Lacie's mere existence is the only thing that ties him to the world.}}
* {{spoiler|[[I Will Find You]]: He spends eight years searching for Lacie. He eventually finds her... and then she dies.}}
* [[Insistent Terminology]]:
** He prefers not to be called the Hero of Sabliér. {{spoiler|[[Half Truth|Because he isn't]].}}
** {{spoiler|He refers to Oswald by his given name up until Oswald refuses to allow him to bring Lacie back from the dead. From that point on, he mentally disassociates Oswald as Lacie's older brother and refers to him as "Glen" from then on.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Light Is Not Good]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Like Father, Like Son]]: Like his mother, he developed an obsession with the person he loves.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Living Lie Detector]]: He learned how to tell when people were lying in order to survive. He knew Lacie was lying when she told him to meet in a week in Retrace LXVIII, but he didn't realize that it was because of impending death until later.}}
* [[Lolicon]]: ''[[Your Mileage May Vary|Kind of]]'', just as with Oz. [[Innocent Fanservice Girl|Alice]] was thirteen when she [[May–December Romance|met Jack]]. He refers to her as a ''"gorgeously cute, sweet little girl"'' and calls her a ''"most-precious person."'' However, this sort of age difference wasn't uncommon during the times that ''Pandora Hearts'' is based upon. {{spoiler|Retrace LXXI hints that his closeness with Alice might just be due to the fact that Alice represents what is left of Lacie in the world, and Retrace LXXII reveals that he used the Will of the Abyss in order to create B-Rabbit and cause the Tragedy of Sabliér.}}
* [[Long-Haired Pretty Boy]]
* {{spoiler|[[Love Makes You Crazy]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Love Makes You Evil]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Manipulative Bastard]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Memento MacGuffin]]: The earring that he receives from Lacie after she leaves him to return to the Baskervilles. The earring is what tips Lacie off on who Jack is when they reunite eight years later, and he later receives Lacie's other earring from Glen/Oswald after her death.}}
* [[The Messiah]]: {{spoiler|Subverted.}}
* [[Mysterious Protector]]: To everyone in general. Specifically, towards Oz and Alice.
* [[Powers Via Possession]]: He takes over Oz when the situation calls for him to step in and/or speak.
*  {{spoiler|[[Put Them All Out of My Misery]]: If he can't bring Lacie back into the world, then he'll just bring the world to Lacie. In the Abyss.}}
* [[Rapunzel Hair]]: His braid.
* [[The Reveal]]:  {{spoiler|It was Jack and not Glen who caused the Tragedy of Sabliér and was obsessed with Lacie.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Snow Means Love]]: Snow is often associated with Jack's and Lacie's relationship. It was snowing when he met Lacie, and it was snowing when he finally reunited with her eight years later.}}
** {{spoiler|[[Snow Means Death]]: And it was snowing on the day he found out she was dead.}}
* [[Spirit Advisor]]: To Oz.
** {{spoiler|[[Treacherous Advisor]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Stalker with a Crush]]: For Lacie, who he spends eight years searching for after they first met. See [[Yandere]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Start of Darkness]]: Though he wasn't completely "good" to begin with, losing Lacie--and subsequently seeing her remaining feelings/memories through Oz--is what puts him on the deep end and convinces him that if Lacie can't be brought back to the world that she loves, ''then he'll just have to bring the world to her in the Abyss''.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Stepford Smiler]]: Type C. He puts up the friendly, smiling act and asks little questions so the Baskervilles won't keep him away from Lacie, and following Lacie's death, he continues this routine with Glen/Oswald so he can lower the latter's guard and learn more about the Abyss in order to bring Lacie back.}}
{{quote|{{spoiler|His sudden smile concealed a violent passion}}}}
* [[Tall, Dark and Handsome|Tall Bright and Handsome]]
* [[Tragic Hero]]: {{spoiler|Subverted.}}
** {{spoiler|[[Tragic Villain]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Undying Loyalty]]: To Lacie.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Unreliable Expositor]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Xanatos Speed Chess]]: His plans change from being by Lacie's side to bringing her back from the dead to bringing the world to her in the Abyss.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Yandere]]: He is to Lacie as Oz is to Alice... [[Up to Eleven|except about]] [[Oh Crap|100 times worse]].}}
{{quote|{{spoiler|'''Jack:''' To me... this world is like a dark night that swallows everything. But since you came into my life... and you were so kind, to find me. I don't need friends or status anymore. I only need... to have you by my side! Lacie!}}
{{spoiler|'''Jack:''' [''after Glen says that Lacie can't be brought back''] [[Madness Mantra|Unacceptable! Unacceptable! Unacceptable! Unacceptable! Unacceptable! Unacceptable! Unacceptable! Unacceptable!]]}} }}

=== Zai Vessalius ===
* [[Abusive Parents]]: Especially towards Oz.
* [["It" Is Dehumanizing]]: He refers to Oz as a thing. Makes his [[Abusive Parent]] status all the more apparent.
* [[Jerkass]]

=== Ada Vessalius ===
[[File:adavessalius 3542.jpg|frame]]
Oz's little sister. As a child she usually tagged along with whatever mischief Oz is up to with [[Butt Monkey|Gilbert]]. Has a cat named Dinah and later Snowdrop.

* [[Genki Girl]]
* [[Green Eyes]]
* [[Hair of Gold]]
* [[Kaori Fukuhara]]
* {{spoiler|[[Nightmare Fetishist]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[She's All Grown Up]]}}
* [[Spoiled Sweet]]




==  Nightray Household ==

* [[Big Screwed-Up Family]]: By the present time.
* [[Cassandra Truth]]: {{spoiler|The Nightray from 100 years ago had a feeling something bad would happen if they didn't keep the Barmas and Vessalius away from the Baskervilles.}} He was right.
* [[Feuding Families]]: With the Vessalius household.  {{spoiler|Thanks to what happened 100 years ago.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Kill'Em All]]: Not counting the servants, only the adoptive children survive.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Off with His Head]]: The only Nightray by blood who doesn't leave this way is Elliot Nightray, who unknowingly contributed to the [[Incredibly Lame Pun|headcount]].}}

=== Raven/Gilbert Nightray ===
[[File:51529 4866.jpg|frame]]
The mysterious man who shows up along with Sharon and Break after Oz escapes from the Abyss. Turns out Raven is in fact the name of his Chain and is really what everyone calls him with in Pandora. Based on Bill the Lizard from Alice in Wonderland. His Chain is based on the Monstrous Crow.

* [[Adorkable]]
* [[Ambiguously Gay]]: Has shown no interest in any of the women in the series and his feelings for Oz are questioned.
* [[Attractive Bent Gender]]: The author will do nothing but to demonstrate this repeatedly.
* [[Badass Longcoat]]
* [[Bishounen]]
* [[Break the Cutie]]: Childhood was awful. Adulthood isn't that much better.
* [[The Chew Toy]]: The universe seems to be against him.
* [[Can't Hold His Liquor]]: YMMV, his [[Crowning Moment of Funny]], confusing whether to use "ore" or "boku" as his first-person pronoun. Of course, this is [[Lost in Translation]] in English.
* [[Chick Magnet]]
* [[Dandere]]: Doesn't talk that much unless it's someone he knows and when he talks, its usually yelling at Alice.
* [[Estrogen Brigade Bait]]
* [[Eyes of Gold]]
* [[Goth]]: Looks like one and acts like one half the time.
* [[The Gunslinger]]
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: He snaps very easily when it concerns Alice. Then again it goes both ways especially when [[Friend Versus Lover|they fight over Oz]].
* [[Happiness in Slavery]]: While Oz usually bullied him, they were the best of friends.
* [[Hot for Student]]: The third anime omake, with Oz.
* [[Ineffectual Loner]]
* {{spoiler|[[In the Back]]: As a child, by Jack.}}
* [[Kosuke Toriumi]]
* {{spoiler|[[Laser-Guided Amnesia]]}}
* [[Nice Hat]]
* [[Perpetual Frowner]]
* [[Poisonous Friend]]: He's not a very good one in the "poisonous" section, mind you. However, {{spoiler|it's noted that he has a hard time holding the urge to kill Alice.}}
* [[Smoking Is Cool]]: Invoked by Break to convince him to start. Subverted as he's now trying to quit and gives a laundry list of reasons why Oz shouldn't imitate him.
* [[Smoking Is Glamorous]]: He certainly looks so while doing it.
* [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]]: By appearance but not by personality, hence his [[Uke]] status.
* [[Tomato in the Mirror]]: {{spoiler|In the past, he was actually Glen's servant and Jack attacked him when he came upon Glen and Jack fighting. Furthermore, he was intended to be the next Glen after Oswald.}}
* [[Took a Level in Badass]]: After Oz disappears for 10 years.
** [[Took a Level in Jerkass]]: Went from a sweet, kind boy to a brooding, serious man.
* [[Troubled but Cute]]
* [[Uke]]: Labeled as one in [[Fanon]].
* [[Weak-Willed]]: How many times has he been hypnotized into attacking everyone?
* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|Why Did It Have To Be Cats?]]
* [[Wimpification]]: Hit by this often in fanfiction... and in the series sometimes...
* {{spoiler|[[Yandere]]}}: for Oz. Though a much milder, [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]] case.
* [[You Should Know This Already]]: Raven is Gilbert post-[[Time Skip]].

=== Vincent Nightray ===
[[File:38924 3177.jpg|frame]]

The younger brother of Gilbert Nightray. Probably is the most screwed up character in the series. His Chain is Dormouse/Yamane, which induces sleep.

* [[Aloof Big Brother|Aloof Younger Brother]]: He's more skilled with his gun than his brother at the age of ''nine''. Gilbert once moaned about this.
*  {{spoiler|[[Apocalypse Maiden]]: Male variant. Like Lacie, he's a Child of Misfortune.}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Atoner]]: In a way, for causing the Tragedy of Sabliér.}}
* [[Ax Crazy]]
* [[Bad Boss]]: Towards Echo.
* [[Becoming the Mask]]: It's implied that his {{spoiler|fake-love towards Ada}} is becoming even more real in the recent chapters.
* [[Bishounen]]
* [[Blond Guys Are Evil]]
* [[Chick Magnet]]
* [[Corrupt the Cutie]]: Seems to want to do this to {{spoiler|Ada}}.
* [[Creepy Child]]
* {{spoiler|[[Death Seeker]]: His motive for everything he does is to get the Will Of The Abyss to make it so he never existed.}}
* [[He-Man Woman Hater]]: Considering the women he was around as a child, it's [[Jerkass Woobie|somewhat understandable]].
* {{spoiler|[[I Am Not Left-Handed]]: The dormouse is not my only Chain. }}
* [[Jun Fukuyama]]
* [[Knight Templar Big Brother|Knight Templar Little Brother]]: To Gil.
* [[Long-Haired Pretty Boy]]
* [[Mismatched Eyes]]: One [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|red]] and one [[Eyes of Gold|gold]]. The red one is his [[Freudian Excuse]].
* [[Never My Fault]]: Because [[Yandere|he does it all for Gil]].
* [[Poisonous Friend]]: Towards Gilbert.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]:  {{spoiler|His mother sold him to a freakshow.}}
* [[Smart People Play Chess]]
* [[Troubling Unchildlike Behavior]]: His habit of cutting up dolls with a pair of scissors, which still happens in his adulthood.
* [[Unwitting Pawn]]: To {{spoiler|Jack and Miranda.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Used to Be a Sweet Kid]]}}: Double-subversion. He didn't have his [[Troubling Unchildlike Behavior]] until  {{spoiler|meeting Alice}}.
* [[Yandere]]: And ''how''.

=== Echo{{spoiler|/Noise/Zwei}} ===
[[File:54427 4032.jpg|frame]]
The usually silent servant of Vincent. She's obedient towards her Master, and even regards herself as nothing but a tool for Vincent. {{spoiler|Her Chain is Doldum, [[Don't Explain the Joke|derived from]] [[Alice in Wonderland]]'s Tweedledum and Tweedledee.}}

* [[Battle Butler]]
* {{spoiler|[[Bokukko]]: As Noise/Zwei.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Cute and Psycho]]: Noise or Zwei, whose favorite thing is the pain of other people.}}
* [[Emotionless Girl]]
* [[Happiness in Slavery]]: {{spoiler|[[Subverted]]. Oz gets her to talking about her "beloved" Master...}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hellish Pupils]]: As Noise/Zwei.}}
* [[Kuudere]]
* [[Mad Love]]:  {{spoiler|Noise/Zwei, at least, towards Vincent.}}
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Echo is, well, an echo. You know, she doesn't have a high regard of herself.  {{spoiler|Her [[Split Personality]]'s name is Noise, a sound louder than an echo, meaning that she's the dominant one. Her other pseudonym as Baskerville is Zwei, meaning "two" in German.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Mind Control]]: Doldum's specialty.}}
** {{spoiler|[[People Puppets]]: When the victim doesn't struggle against Doldum's strings, she can't control the mind.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Not So Stoic]]}}
* [[Pronoun Trouble]]: {{spoiler|Zwei has been referred to as a "he" even in the Yen Press translations.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Psycho for Hire]]}}: Echo herself doesn't count, but {{spoiler|Zwei definitely does.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Split Personality]]: This is another connection to the characters Tweedledum and Tweedledee.}}
* [[Rei Ayanami Expy]]: Somewhat.
* [[Ryo Hirohashi]]
* [[Third Person Person]]
* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]

=== Elliot Nightray ===
[[File:62937 2497.jpg|frame]]
The youngest child of the Nightray household. Thanks to the influence of his family, he hates the Vessalius household with a passion for painting them as responsible for the Tragedy of Sabliér. However, he and Oz have overcome this boundary and are aiming to repair the broken relationship between the households. {{spoiler|He was later revealed to be the unknowing core Contractor of [[Eldritch Abomination|Humpty Dumpty]].}}

* [[Anime Hair]]: Not to the silly extent of the usual, but it's still there. A few manga recaps [[Lampshade]] [http://www.mangareader.net/350-24657-2/pandora-hearts/chapter-28.html this].
* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Elliot's introduction has him complaining at length about the actions of one of Oz's favorite characters in a book. He also {{spoiler|runs toward a Chain with just a sword to save his friend without a moment's hesitation.}}
* [[Beauty Mark]]
* [[Blue Eyes]]
* {{spoiler|[[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: Has killed more than half his family under the influence of Humpty Dumpty, who, by instinct, protects the current vessel of Glen Baskerville's soul.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Break the Cutie]]: The Yura arc wasn't very kind to him.}}
* [[Cute Little Fangs]]
* [[Determinator]]
* {{spoiler|[[Famous Last Words]]: "I'm sorry, Leo." Can also be seen as an example of [[Sorry That I'm Dying]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Go Out with a Smile]]}}: It was not pretty.
* [[Hair Color Dissonance]]: Nobody's sure whether his hair is supposed to be blond or a really bright brown.
* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Twice. The first was to save Leo from Humpty Dumpty (though, he didn't know it wouldn't hurt him). The second time, he rejected Humpty Dumpty despite his incuse having reached the point where it's fatal for him. The latter kills him off for real.}}
* [[Hirofumi Nojima]]
* [[Ironic Echo]]: {{spoiler|[http://www.mangareader.net/pandora-hearts/59/41 Lampshaded] [http://www.mangareader.net/pandora-hearts/59/42 in Retrace 59]. In Retrace 25, he'd scoffed at the concept of a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] and ended up [[Tear Jerker|committing one himself]].}}
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]
* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}: In Chapter LIX.
* {{spoiler|[[Laser-Guided Amnesia]]}}: Due to {{spoiler|his contract with Humpty Dumpty. The memories Humpty Dumpty removes or changes around are usually those more painful for him.}}
* [[Living Emotional Crutch]]: It's not very obvious, but he is actually this for Leo.
* [[My Name Is Inigo Montoya]]: {{spoiler|When throwing off the influence of Humpty Dumpty.}}
* [[Opposites Attract]]: Elliot chose Leo to be his valet specifically because the latter's personality irritates the former.
* [[Recurring Dreams|Recurring]] [[Bad Dreams]]
* {{spoiler|[[Sacrificial Lion]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Tomato in the Mirror]]}}: Zig-zagged. {{spoiler|Break accuses him of being the headhunter because it just so happens that Humpty Dumpty's presence was stronger where he is. When it was checked if there was a seal, it was confirmed there wasn't. As it turns out, there really was a seal; Humpty Dumpty's power over it's contractor's memories just made him think there wasn't. When he found this all out, he rejected Humpty Dumpty, [[Taking You with Me|dying with it]] as a result of his seal being past the time when it was still safe to severe the connection between the contractor and the chain. But then, it was revealed that while he was the culprit for the deaths of his brothers, sister and mother, he wasn't the one responsible for the first headhunting case; in fact, he was nothing more than an imitator of the true headhunter, who just so happens to be one of his adoptive brothers. The latter was only revealed [[Acquitted Too Late|once Elliot himself was already dead]], though.}}
* [[Tsundere]]
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Type 2 with Leo.

=== Leo ===
[[File:leoph 7604.jpg|frame]]

Elliot's valet. He may not take his master's side all the time, but the two are still good friends. {{spoiler|He is later revealed to be the current vessel for the soul of Glen Baskerville, and has recently made a contract with Jabberwock. }}

* [[Adorkable]]: {{spoiler|Until he lost his glasses and got his haircut.}}
* [[Akeno Watanabe]]
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Lashes out on Elliot in Retrace 50, surprising even Oz and Gilbert. It was mentioned in the same chapter that he is actually a hot-head himself; it's just that Elliot tends to lose his temper before Leo even gets the chance to.
** Vincent, of all people, lampshades this in Retrace 63.
{{quote|Vincent: Despite his mild-mannered appearance, he can be pretty brutal...}}
* {{spoiler|[[Bishonen]]: [[Beautiful All Along|Well]], [[The Glasses Gotta Go|he]] [[Important Haircut|does]] [[She Cleans Up Nicely|clean up nicely]]...}}
* [[Blinding Bangs]]: Wears [[Messy Hair|his hair]] like this when not wearing [[Nerd Glasses|his glasses]]. {{spoiler|It was later mentioned that his mother let him grow his hair that way to help him stop seeing and hearing things. He has abandoned this look after the [[Important Haircut]] in Retrace LXI, though.}}
* [[Bookworm]]: Many characters do fit this, but he's noteworthy.
* [[Covert Pervert]]: His interest in books even reach to... less innocent territories, if one of the recaps and the Retrace 42.5 Drama CD omake are to be believed.
* {{spoiler|[[Creepy Child]]: Doesn't seem to have any qualms against causing another tragedy if it meant killing the Will of the Abyss, for one. There are also his statements about "a game of tag" with Oz...}}
* [[Cross-Dressing Voices]]
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: {{spoiler|Specks of golden light in his eyes aside.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Cute and Psycho]]: After siding with the Baskervilles.}}
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]
* {{spoiler|[[Freak-Out]]: His reaction to Elliot's death had a lot of sobbing and screaming. He went on with this as Pandora was interrogating him until Vincent came along.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hearing Voices]]: Hearing the voices of the previous Glens comes with being Glen's reincarnation.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hellish Pupils]]}}
* {{spoiler|1=[[I Am Who?]]/[[King Incognito]]: Never found out that the reason he could see and hear things was because of his status as the current vessel of Glen Baskerville until Vincent told him about this in Retrace 61.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Impaled with Extreme Prejudice]]: Retrace 65, courtesy of Jack. Being a Baskerville, he lives, but he was still knocked out.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Important Haircut]]: Gets one in Retrace 61.}}
* [[It's All My Fault]]: Feels this way towards {{spoiler|Elliot's death}}, among many other things. See also {{spoiler|[[They Died Because of You]]}} below.
* [[Likes Older Women]]: According to an omake that came with the Retrace 42.5 Drama CD.
* [[Long-Haired Pretty Boy]]: {{spoiler|Even after his [[Important Haircut]], he still keeps his hair shoulder-length.}}
* [[Opaque Nerd Glasses]]/[[Scary Shiny Glasses]]
* [[Opposites Attract]]: Leo has stated that he and Elliot are complete opposites, but that's precisely why Elliot is so important to him.
* {{spoiler|[[Sanity Slippage]]: Tends to accuse himself of this due to seeing and hearing things, as well as his testimonies not matching that of Elliot's or others'. It happens for real after Elliot's death.}}
* {{spoiler|1=[[Slasher Smile]]/[[Broken Smile]]: Seems to be flashing these as of late, though he's already done [http://www.mangareader.net/350-54109-43/pandora-hearts/chapter-50.html one] earlier.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Technicolor Eyes]]}}: [[Word of God]] confirms his eye color to be [[Black Eyes|pitch black]], but that doesn't stop the fans or even herself from adding some color (most notably [[Purple Eyes|purple]]) when coloring them. {{spoiler|There's also those specks of gold that fly around his eyes, reflected from the Abyss lights he sees.}}
* [[Teens Are Short]]: He's a year older than Oz (technically) and just a centimeter taller.
* {{spoiler|[[They Died Because of You]]: According to the previous Glen (Or Oswald), Leo may have stopped Elliot from dying then and there, but that doesn't mean he has saved him. He internalizes this after Elliot's [[Heroic Sacrifice]].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Took a Level in Badass]]: Granted, his recent contract with Jabberwock still puts a strain on his body. But compare being able to control Jabberwock with having to rely on the guns or swords he's not even good with.}}
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Type 2 with Elliot.
* {{spoiler|[[What Beautiful Eyes!]]}}: At least, Elliot seems to think so. {{spoiler|And lately, [http://www.mangareader.net/pandora-hearts/61/44 even Vincent] [http://www.mangareader.net/pandora-hearts/61/45 thinks so too].}}
* {{spoiler|[[Yandere]]}}: Seriously. This trope runs rampant in the series.

* [["No Respect" Guy]]

** [[Big Bad]]: Glen
** [[The Dark Chick]]: Lotti
** [[Genius Bruiser]]: Fang
** [[The Brute]]: Doug
** [[Tagalong Kid]]: Lily
* {{spoiler|[[Immortality]]: [[Healing Factor|Type IV]]. Being more Chain than human, though, they're still affected by powers related to the Abyss.}}

[[File:72072 2152.jpg|frame]]
The enigmatic leader of the Baskervilles and the one who caused the Tragedy of Sabliér. {{spoiler|[[Silent Scapegoat|Or so we thought]]}}.

* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]: ''He'' was the one who had to be physically separated in order to seal Jack away, not the other way around.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Immortality]]: A hybrid of various types, including the aforementioned Type IV shared by all Baskervilles.}}
** {{spoiler|[[Body Surf]]: Not being human, Glen needs to take over one person after another in order to continue his reign on the Baskervilles. The transfer is usually in the form of a ceremony (which may take a decade or so to complete) in which the next vessel must drink the blood of the Five Black-Feathered Chains, and eventually, of the current Glen instead. It seems that failure to hold the ceremony forces Glen to go through the same reincarnation cycle as the others. Either way, the next vessel will inherit Glen's name, duty, soul, and memories.}}
* [[Love Makes You Evil]]: {{spoiler|He caused the Tragedy of Sabliér when he lost his love Lacie to the Abyss. Subverted as it turns out that everything that happened to "him" happened to ''Jack'' instead.}}

* [[Posthumous Character]]
* [[Purple Eyes]]
* {{spoiler|[[Shoot the Dog]]: Upon becoming the next Glen Baskerville, he was forced to send his sister Lacie into the Abyss.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Spirit Advisor]]: Along with the previous Glens, he was this towards Leo, though, the former didn't really appreciate the help, considering how the voices established his status as "the weird one", and eventually was able to get them blocked out. At least for the time being.}}
* [[The Stoic]]
** [[Not So Stoic]]: {{spoiler|He reacts badly when Jack suggests bringing Lacie back from the dead and for causing the Tragedy of Sabliér and stabbing Gil. Also, in Retrace LXXII, he confesses to Lacie (prior to her death) that he'll be lonely without her.}}
* [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]]

=== {{spoiler|Glen Baskerville/Revis Baskerville}} ===
[[File:143367 2005.jpg|frame]]

{{spoiler|The former Glen Baskerville, preceding Oswald. He impregnated Lacie as part of an experiment and is the father of both Alice and the Will of the Abyss. When he died, he became the chain Humpty Dumpty.}}

* [[Bishounen]]
* [[Dissonant Serenity]]
** He frequently does this, such as when warning {{spoiler|Jack Vessalius}} that he could have him killed and nobody would notice.
** Another example is when {{spoiler|he explains to a young Lacie about [[Deader Than Dead|her]] [[Your Days Are Numbered|fate]]}} without having the smile on his face waver.
* {{spoiler|[[Immortality]]: A hybrid of various types, including the aforementioned Type IV shared by all Baskervilles.}}
** {{spoiler|[[Body Surf]]: Not being human, Glen needs to take over one person after another in order to continue his reign on the Baskervilles. The transfer is usually in the form of a ceremony (which may take a decade or so to complete) in which the next vessel must drink the blood of the Five Black-Feathered Chains, and eventually, of the current Glen instead. It seems that failure to hold the ceremony forces Glen to go through the same reincarnation cycle as the others. Either way, the next vessel will inherit Glen's name, duty, soul, and memories.}}

=== Fang ===

* [[Affably Evil]]: The most polite and level-headed of the group.
* [[Anti-Villain]]: On top of being the most polite and level-headed, he's the least inclined to kill, considering how he questioned Glen for the order to kill. {{spoiler|Then again, killings aside, it has already been established that the Baskervilles aren't really villains, to begin with.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Apocalypse Maiden]]: As a Child of Misfortune with the ability to interact with the Core of the Abyss, her existence is a threat to the world's stability.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Babies Make Everything Better]]: The only reason she seemed to agree with Revis' "experiment" was so that, through her child becoming the vessel for the Core of the Abyss, the Core of the Abyss wouldn't have to be alone anymore.}}
*  {{spoiler|1=[[Cessation of Existence]]/[[Deader Than Dead]]: Her fate in the Abyss.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Cute and Psycho]]}}

* {{spoiler|[[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]]}}

* {{spoiler|[[Rapunzel Hair]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Raven Hair, Ivory Skin]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Runaway]]: She meets Jack after running away from the Baskervilles.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Strange Girl]]: For one, she hates common sense, and she wore a sundress while it was snowing. Jack even describes her as someone from another dimension.}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Un-Reveal]]: Her parting words to Glen/Oswald.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Yandere]]: For Jack. Though, after the 8-year time skip in the flashback arc, she claims to see him as nothing more than a toy. Whether those are her real thoughts or mere lies, it is notable that she spares Jack of any knowledge that she will be sacrificed.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Your Days Are Numbered]]: She must be cast to the Abyss by the black-feathered chains and be killed [[Deader Than Dead]].}}

* [[Big Eater]]
* [[Bratty Half-Pint]]

** Not to mention her [[When She Smiles]] moments.
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: She's prone to losing her temper when around anyone in general but mainly toward Gilbert, who she [[Friend Versus Lover|constantly fights especially when it concerns Oz.]]
* [[Devoted to You]]: Both [[Yandere|Oz]] and [[Mysterious Protector|Jack]] are this towards Alice.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]: So much.
* [[Girl in the Tower]]: Very much. {{spoiler|[[Mysterious Protector|Jack]]}} was her first friend after he discovered her in her lonely prison of a tower. She seemed really fond of {{spoiler|Oswald, then Glen}}, though, enough to {{spoiler|name her stuffed rabbit after him}}.
* [[Hot-Blooded]]
* [[Innocent Fanservice Girl]]: Alice was at least 13 before she {{spoiler|died/became a chain}} and looks like a 13-year old girl. Not to mention the flow of time in the Abyss is different so mentally and physically she really is thirteen. She also grew up incredibly sheltered, gullible and despite coming off arrogant, bratty and brash she is actually quite innocent and this is later [[Lampshaded]] by Sharon, who believing Oz took advantage of [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?|Alice, who didn't really know what a kiss]] ''[[What Is This Thing You Call Love?|was]]'', attacks him with her [[Paper Fan of Doom]].
** ''"You are a wolf in rabbit's clothing taking advantage of a poor innocent little rabbit!"''.

* [[Trademark Favourite Food]]: Meat.
* [[Troubled but Cute]]
* [[Tsundere]]
* [[Unwitting Pawn]]: Ended up telling {{spoiler|Vincent that the Baskervilles were planning to kill his brother thanks to false information given to her by Jack.}}
* [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]]: See [[Innocent Fanservice Girl]] above. Alice is unaccustomed to human conventions and things related to romance and shame.
* [[When She Smiles]]: {{spoiler|Oz blushes.}} Or, if she's being her obliviously adorable self, {{spoiler|Oz}} laughs in endearment.

=== {{spoiler|Will of The Abyss}} ===
[[File:78145 7982.jpg|frame]]

* [[Ax Crazy]]
* [[Animal Motif]]: White rabbit.
* [[Broken Bird]]

* [[Light Is Not Good]]: And ''how''.
* [[Mood Swinger]]
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]
* [[The Ophelia]]
* [[Purple Eyes]]
* {{spoiler|[[Sharing a Body]]: Played with. The Will of the Abyss and Alice do have bodies of their own, but while Alice was spat out of the Abyss, the Will of the Abyss stayed. In order for her to explore the outside world, she had to swap souls with Alice. This stopped when the Alice died in the Tragedy.}}
* [[Slasher Smile]]
* [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]]
* [[Woman in White]]
* [[Yandere]]: For Jack. She just doesn't show most of the tendency {{spoiler|during her life.}} Although she still shows some, such as when she reveals her identity to Jack, but she's definitely this.

=== Cheshire ===

* [[Cheshire Cat Grin]]: His first form.
* [[Devoted to You]]: To The Will of The Abyss (aka [[Ax Crazy]] White Alice).
