Added DiffLines:

!! Alistair Mechanus
* {{Adorkable}}: Alistair's clumsy attempts to woo Julia and his CharacterDevelopment over the course of the novel reveal that he is actually this at heart, and was probably even more so in his previous life.
* BallsOfSteel: Literally. Alistair manages to NoSell a GroinAttack ''from another cyborg'' because he's metal from the hips down.
* {{Cyborg}}: He's literally a self-made man.
* GadgeteerGenius: Alistair built all the robots in Shark Reef Isle himself.
* GeniusBruiser: Alistair may be a man of science first, but he's got one ''hell'' of a (metal) left hook, and when he's at full mental capacity he can hold his own in a fight.
* MadScientist: He doesn't consider himself this at first, but when Julia name-drops the archetype, he does accept the label as reasonably accurate.

!! Julia Parker
* BrokenBird: She suffers from PTSD due to a traumatic event from six months before the novel opens.
* HospitalHottie

!! Jim Thompson
* [[PsychoExGirlfriend Psycho Ex Boyfriend]]: What he becomes after he is turned into a cyborg. There were shades of this pre-cyborging, too, [[spoiler: especially since he set Julia up to be attacked because he thought she was going to break up with him.]]

!! Arthur
