History Characters / ConfinementFoundation

* ADateWithRosiePalms: Connor claims that he got over his depression over [[MissingMom his mother]] [[ParentalAbandonment abandoning him]] after he started masturbating. [[ThatCameOutWrong He quickly adds to Dr. Powers that he was]] ''[[ThatCameOutWrong not]]'' [[ThatCameOutWrong masturbating to the thought of his mother]].

* ImmortalLifeIsCheap: Connor's ResurrectiveImmortality has been endlessly exploited by the Foundation, as they treat him less like an SCP object and more like a [[CannonFodder D-class test subject]] who can be thrown at any highly dangerous experiment or expedition they have in mind for him.

* KarmaHoudini: Exactly how the hell Wilson managed to go seemingly unpunished (let alone still allowed to keep his job) after General Marcus caught him in the act of ''murdering one of the guards'' at the SCP-2200-3 containment perimeter, is anyone's guess. According to [[WordOfStPaul Orion]], [[https://scpconfinementofficial.tumblr.com/post/708575439916089344/i-have-a-question-regarding-a-funny-plothole-from the Foundation has considered getting rid of Dr. Wilson in the past]], but they ultimately couldn't [[CantKillYouStillNeedYou because his skills are too valuable]].

* TokenGoodTeammate: [[AntiVillain At least for a high-ranking Foundation bureaucrat]], O5-3 seems to serve this role in the O5 Council, given that he's the leader of the Ethics Committee. He personally objects to the cruel exploitation of both Connor and regular D-class personnel for human experimentation; he only reluctantly approves the use of Connor as a D-class, because it prevents mortal test subjects from being used and sacrificed at Site 95, while still lamenting the regular tortures that Connor has to suffer through. He also once managed to persuade the rest of the Council to fund mental health treatment for sapient [=SCPs=] like Connor, a program which he seems to feel personally invested in.

* ShirtlessScene: Strips off his clothes to relieve a full body itch in Episode 2. [[NakedPeopleAreFunny Because of course he does.]]

* {{LOL69}}: They all say "Nice" when O5-1 reads a note from Site 69.

* PointyHairedBoss: [=O5-1=] is portrayed as a senile and literally half-dead old man who suggests filling up empty containment cells with non-anomalous endangered animals and "those three-wheeled European cars".[[note]](the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reliant_Robin Reliant Robin]], the car frequently seen tipping over in ''Series/MrBean'')[[/note]]

* ActionSurvivor: Connor starts out as a NonActionGuy who had no real fighting skills, relying mostly on his immortality (and sometimes his wits) to get himself out of sticky situations. But during "The Infinite IKEA" duology, he [[TookALevelInBadass suddenly becomes an]] ActionHero as an unusual side effect of his temporary [[LaserGuidedAmnesia memory loss]].

* AmbiguouslyBi: [[https://twitter.com/Lord_Bung/status/1007288012739244033 Courtesy of]] WordOfGay. To clarify, the author sees him as bisexual, but you can think whatever you like.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: Connor is definitely anomalous, but seems to be mostly human aside from his power of ResurrectiveImmortality, which may imply that there's something even more [[HumanoidAbomination off about him]]. [[spoiler:And then it's soon revealed that Connor's body or soul is actually [[DemonicPossession bonded with an]] EldritchAbomination.]]

[[spoiler:And then it's soon revealed that Connor's body or soul is actually [[DemonicPossession bonded with an]] EldritchAbomination.]]

* BadBoss: During the [=O5=] Council meeting, when O5-3 starts talking about Connor's therapy sessions, O5-1 ignores the part about how Connor has been used as the sole test subject at Site-95 for years, and how these sessions have been helping him keep it together. O5-1 says that signing off on funding mental health treatment for [=SCPs=] was "uncharacteristically thoughtful" of him, and holds a vote to defund this program in favor of hiring more security guards, to almost unanimous agreement from everyone besides O5-3.

* ItsAllAboutMe: Only cares if Connor comes back from another dimension so long as he has something for him.

* DefectorFromDecadence: Briefly allies with the Autocratic State of Soulsberg, killing one of the guards from the top of the wall. Ultimately, [[KarmaHoudini nothing comes of this]].

* UngratefulBastard: His condolences for sending Connor through another dimension quickly devolves into how he couldn't get a team of military professionals to do it instead.

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Very slightly with the Foundation, possibly as a side effect of it being PlayedForLaughs. Several "safe" humanoid [=SCPs=] are allowed to meet up and congregate relatively unsupervised, and even share quarters (which is played as being "not important" enough for their own rooms). In SCP canon, they'd be more likely to all be individually confined with socialization, especially socialization with other anomalies, something allowed only for their mental health and with prior approval from on high. Connor can also go just about anywhere in the facility and is asked to go there on his own, not escorted unless he is going off-site. In canon that would be treated as a ''very'' rare amount of freedom, mostly because of how many anomalies would take advantage of it.

* ObstructiveBureaucrat: As far as most members of the Council are concerned, the only thing that's important for Foundation interests is ensuring that anomalies remain secured and contained as much as possible. When O5-3 mentions the SCP mental health program and praises rhe positive morale boost it offers for their anomalous prisoners, all of his colleagues immediately vote to defund this project in favor of hiring more security personnel instead.

** Played more straigtly when the O5 Council are introduced, as all of them (except for O5-3) don't hesitate to defund the mental health program for [=SCPs=], which is implied to negatively affect (if not possibly cancelling) Connor's therapy sessions with Dr. Powers.

* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Subverted at least in regards to what Dr. Wilson thinks, claiming that his bosses are all just a bunch of useless bureaucrats, and hates them for it. But in reality, they're making logical decisions like refusing to let him send an entire Mobile Task Force into [[EldritchLocation SCP-093]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext just to retrieve his favorite clipboard]]. He also claims that they do stuff like sip on champagne all day, when ''he's'' the one who does that, to the point that it's the only thing he has to drink in his office.

* HypocriticalHumor: Rants to Connor about bureaucratic asswipes that lay back and drink alcohol at three in the afternoon, when he keeps some champagne in his office while ordering Connor to fulfill very petty tasks on his behalf.

-->'''Connor:''' "''Christ'', I hope this isn't permanent..."

** At the end of "The Infinite IKEA (part 2)", Connor finds himself [[spoiler:temporarily [[MergingMistake fused together with all the remaining members of the Canopy Tribe]] into [[BodyHorror one big, grotesquely deformed mass of flesh]], due to [[TeleporterAccident an unknown side effect of the teleporting staple gun]] which he used to help them all escape from SCP-3008. Connor is able to break free by asking Tallboy to press one of his muscular arms against Connor's forehead]], instantly killing him and making him regenerate into a new, separate body.

** In "The Infinite Ikea (part 1)", an amnesiac Connor frequently [[spoiler:falls victim to [[UnstoppableRage berserker rages]] when his blood is drawn; swiftly and ruthlessly [[OneManArmy annihilating whole tribes]] on occasion. He only ever seems to stop when there are no enemies left to kill, and comes to with a confused look on his face, as though he had no clue what just happened.]]

* ADateWithRosiePalms: He claims that this is how he got over his mother abandoning him.

* MagicPants: Whatever he's wearing when he dies ends up regenerating with his body (his usual jumpsuit in Episode 1, ''[[NakedPeopleAreFunny just]]'' [[NakedPeopleAreFunny his body]] in Episode 2, his pants and T-shirt in Episode 4...).

* OneManArmy: Connor becomes this in "The Infinite IKEA" episodes; where he inexplicably [[TookALevelInBadass turns into such an incredible fighter]], that he can vanquish large numbers of both human enemies and the IKEA monsters with ease. Even Connor doesn't seem to understand where these skills come from. [[spoiler:It's strongly implied that it's from the demon possessing him, which has previously been bonded to at least one warrior (Ragneer) in the past.]]

* ParentalAbandonment: Connor states he was abandoned by [[MissingMom his mother]] as a baby, without any mention whatsoever of him having [[DisappearedDad a father]] either. He was also left by his mom in a car to die of exposure or starvation, over and over and over again, until somebody noticed the large number of identical dead infants locked in that car. [[spoiler:The newspaper article Dr. Powers reads at the end of Episode 5, which talks about a massive explosion caused by a cult that is in someway linked to Connor and the entity inside him, implies this may not be the truth, and is just a cover story the Foundation came up with to prevent Connor from finding out the truth]].

* UnkemptBeauty: If Dr. Powers, SCP-1360 and SCP-1836's assessments of him is to be believed, he's attractive, but not very clean.

* NoNameGiven: Par for the course, their only names are their numbers, O5-1-through-13. Subverted with O5-1, who's referred to as Graham once.

* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:He is killed after SCP-1360 hands him a hard drive which turns out to be a disguised bomb, turning his body into burnt paste smeared against the walls.]]

* IronButtMonkey: Connor gets put through ''a lot'' of physical (and sometimes mental) pain in each episode; but he obviously always comes out of whatever mess he got into without any permanent or long-term damage.

* FantasticallyIndifferent: His body has been significantly altered by his time in the Night Terror Dimension, though he doesn't seem to very bothered by these changes, and gets around accomplishing his tasks with little difficulty.
