* AccidentalHero: Though his rescue of the baby was intentional (if clumsy), several following incidents further convince everyone that Craig is indeed a fearless hero. For his part, he legitimately tries to set the record straight and isn't that comfortable with the praise he receives but this gets misinterpreted as modesty and only further endears him to others.

* TheDeterminator: His rescue of that baby wasn't flawless, but he did everything he could until the child wasn't in danger anymore and did it without a moment's hesitation.

!! Craig Morgenstern

The constantly terrified protagonist of ''Are You Terrified Yet?'', who is subjected to several dares and challenges by the kids at his new school who want to test if he's really brave after several events that gained him a reputation as the bravest kid in school.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: He does manage to get a new reputation at his new school like he wished, except that this causes a series of horrific dares to prove his bravery that he has to carry through if he wants to keep said reputation.
* ButtMonkey: His easily scared persona made him an easy target for pranks and ridicule at his old school.
* CowardlyLion: He follows through with the dares and challenges he's faced with despite his fears.
* EmbarrassingNickname: The kids at his old school called him "C-C-C-Craig" because of his stutter.
* MistakenForBadass: Right after he manages to save a baby in a fast-moving car, the kids at his new school hail him as a hero, and after things that weren't really his doing (climbing a tree to rescue a kid and the kid managing to get down on his own, apparently beating up Brad's brother even though he actually just bumped into him), this reputation just gets further instilled.
* TookALevelInBadass: He becomes much more brave and confident after [[spoiler:managing to get revenge on everyone who forced him to do the dares]], though he's still afraid of the dark.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Really, ''anything'' scares him.
