* {{Sadist}}: He smiles wickedly after watching humanity being doomed after he replaces Jesus and laughs maniacally after killing Dave Lee.

* GoneMadFromTheRevelation: It's heavily implied that he didn't succumb to M.A.D until Cesar's Alternate revealed him the [[DevilInDisguise truth about God's fate]] during the 3 days he spent locked inside his own room.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]] to be with Cesar. He trusts him enough to go to out in the middle of the night, knowing that the Alternates were around. This ultimately leads to [[ExploitedTrope his death]] in the hands of Cesar's Alternate.

->''"She [[NeverMyFault tries to make me sound like I’m crazy]], and I feel like [[TemptingFate I know myself enough]] to know that's fucking bullshit."''

--->[[AC: "Footage implies that Heathcliff has been paranoid for a prolonged period.]]
--->[[AC: Reasons are implied."]]

** She also does this to Adam in Volume 4 when, after he messages her and tells her about Jonah’s death, she quickly chews him out for [[LackOfEmpathy not even caring at all about him dying and just passing it off as “bad news”]], bringing up the fact she cares more about him even though she didn’t know him as much as Adam did, and demands he be the one break the news to their viewers.

--> ''Jesus said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” And they marveled at him. - Mark 12:17''

* ApocalypticGagOrder: {{Downplayed}}. He orders any evidence about the Distraught Mother's case to not be released to the public for any reason. It's also implied in the Volume 333 teaser that he might have ordered more information about the Alternate invasion to not be published.

* CuriosityKilledTheCast: Thatcher's investigation into Mark's death ends up giving him so much grief he never would've expected. [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] as ''Vol. 4'' reveals he's still alive, but his encounter with the Alternates has cost him his sanity and his partner, Ruth.

* GoMadFromTheRevelation: After a fight with Adam, Evelin vaguely recounts “some awful, terrible things that [she wishes] he never told [her]”. Given the ending revelation, it’s implied that she now has MAD.

--->'''Adam''': I have no idea what her issue was, she keeps making shit up about me. Just on a whim, ''constantly'', there's always something new with-- [static] --I have no idea what she's like with other guys, or if she's had this problem with other guys in past relationships, but, eh, there's ''gotta'' be something up with her.-- [static] -- She tries to make me sound like I'm crazy, and I feel like I know myself enough to know that that's [[PrecisionFStrike fucking]] ''bullshit''. Like, ''[[SarcasmMode I'm sorry]]'' for being the mentally stable one in our relationship. She's got some screws loose up there man!

* TroubleFollowsYouHome: Fleeing from the house and leaving Adam to fend himself with the Intruder, Jonah drives away in palpable panic and grief over what he’s done. However, as Alternates are attracted to dread and Adam has long since lost his fear of their kind, the Intruder spends little time meddling with him now that they’re alone and instead stalks Jonah in his own car to torment him via his GPS.

* AmicableExes: {{Downplayed}}. She and Jude clearly aren't the best of friends, but are willing to help each other out with their son's needs.

* HeroKiller: Going off his actions, he's managed to dispose of Archangel Gabriel, deceived Adam and Eve into commiting the first sin, afflicted and doomed Noah with M.A.D after forcing him to help spread the Alternates across Earth, [[AmbiguousSituation possibly]] forced Jesus Christ into damnation and flat out subverted God's will in general, with any acts He could have done to curb Satan being nonexistent even in the modern age. His first onscreen kill comes in Vol.4, where he’s implied to have [[EyeScream gouged Dave Lee’s eyes out.]]

--> "i know what you love. i know what you dread."

-->'''Cesar's voice:''' ''"[[YouAreTooLate You're too late.]]"''
-->'''Ruth's voice:''' ''"You left me behind."''
-->'''Mark's voice:''' ''"This town is in shambles because of you."''

-->'''Unknown boy's voice:''' ''"Mommy, wanna meet my best friend? He likes to hide, but-"''

---> '''THE DEATH OF MARK HEATHCLIFF''' - ''If you or a loved one has recently been effected by the result of exposure to analog television and mirrors, contact your local authority immediately. (…) [[BaitAndSwitch Financial compensation will not be available.]]"

* {{Sadist}}: All the Alternates are demons and enjoy their work, but 6 in particular seems to really enjoy emotionally fucking with people. He’s seen smiling at the woman in ‘’Intruder Alert’’ immediately after abducting and likely murdering her child with the knowledge that he's about to drive a woman to suicide, remorselessly emotionally tortured Mark for years since childhood, and repeatedly taunts Jonah for abandoning his friend.

* SupernaturalFearInducer: His mere presence on a property apparently instills irrational dread and paranoia even if the victim has no idea he’s nearby, and save for Adam and one brave investigator, it’s been enough to completely deter people from entering the home he’s occupying.

* UnreliableNarrator: [[JustifiedTrope Justified.]] Most of the information they provide has been altered in one way or another by the Intruder.

[[caption-width-right:350:''"[[{{Catchphrase}} Don't be]] [[ArcWords afraid!]] I bring good news of great joy!"'']]

* DecompositeCharacter: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]], given that Mark and Dave already look like Alex in real life.

* NoSell: He says the Alternate Cesar plush is brought to you by “ The mysterious voices that tell me funny things at night!” heavily implying he’s immune to MAD

* TheBadGuyWins: He’s already won, effectively, having come out on top in the conflicts that the Biblical Satan failed in and ended up winning much, much more after that. By the modern age, humanity is constantly suffering under the spread of evil and his Alternates.

* TheDreaded: Ironically enough, for a cabal of demons that are strengthened by fear. Gabriel/Satan speaks of The Shepherd in quiet, [[TranquilFury Tranquil Furious]] tones, and it is heavily implied that The Shepherd and their presence in the world, and their influence on it's people, is the ''sole'' reason why, in spite of appearing to have [[TheBadGuyWins already won]], the Alternates have insisted on staying subtle and haven't just taken the world by storm already.

The antagonistic force of the series, shapeshifting demons who seek to kill their victims via proxy by causing them to commit suicide. They are alluded to be a temporal anomaly of some sorts.

The Detectable. [[TheDreaded The Unspeakable.]] A mysterious figure first seen in "Overthrone" that presents itself as the ArchangelGabriel, but seems quite a bit off. In truth, this figure is {{Satan}}, an extremely intelligent and powerful Alternate who managed to replace the Archangel Gabriel during the birth of Jesus and convince people that he's the "true savior," allowing him to conquer Earth within the following millennia. He is single-handedly responsible for the Alternates managing to get onto Noah's Ark and spreading across the world, resulting in the Alternate Crisis.

* DemiurgeArchetype: A case where the Demiurge is {{Satan}}, who somehow [[KillAndReplace killed and replaced]] the ArchangelGabriel, then overthrew Jesus himself. Posing as the both of them and as God, he tricks humanity into worshipping him instead of the true god, describing himself as the "one true savior". He also unleashes Alternates, demon doppelgängers of human beings, onto the world to destroy humanity via a mass KillAndReplace, furthering the themes of illusion, deceit, and impersonation.

* GreaterScopeVillain: As expected of the embodiment of evil, the entire tragedy behind the Alternates plaguing humanity was started by him, he's changed world history for the worse by subverting divine will, he's the current ruler of Earth and is about the most powerful and dreaded entity the series has to offer. In the modern times however, he's either dormant or absent from the main events, with other Alternates, namely the Intruder, leading most of the carnage instead.

* WalkingSpoiler: It's basically impossible to talk about him without revealing that he's actually Satan in disguise and also subjugated Earth thousands of years ago.

* InterimVillain: InUniverse example[[labelnote:Note]]While it is true that Gabriel is the GreaterScopeVillain of the series, the series mostly focuses on 6, who is a more prominent threat and has way more appearances and main roles, whereas Gabriel mostly appears in cameos or small segments.[[/labelnote]]. In the modern times setting, Gabriel is almost nowhere to be seen save from a few cameos, leaving him as the biggest threat humanity has to face until [[SecondComing Gabriel's return]].
