The playable protagonist, Bigby is really The Big Bad Wolf from ''Literature/LittleRedRidingHood'' and ''Literature/TheThreeLittlePigs''. After being forced to leave The Homelands, Snow White was able to use an enchanted knife to physically transform him into a human form (unlike the glamours other Fables use). He retained much of his animalistic strength and speed, and can morph into either a more "wolfish" human form or a full werewolf form. [[spoiler:As Episode 5 of Season 1 shows, he can also resume his true form at will - that of an small dinosaur-sized black wolf.]]

* AdaptationalDumbass: Not so much a "dumbass", but merely less perceptive: there are parts in the game where he's fooled by glamours or doesn't notice someone walking up right behind him to knock him down. In the comics, Bigby has an excellent sense of hearing and smell and will notice someone long before they notice him, and would most likely not have been fooled by a glamour as he knows Snow's scent.
* AdaptationalHeroism: In the comics, Bigby is noted to have the morality of a wolf, meaning that he doesn't feel any regret for his countless victims and he only reason cares about his image is because it makes his job easier. He also is a firm believer in MightMakesRight and that threats should be responded with the most [[DisproportionateRetribution extreme measures possible]]. In the game, he isn't proud of his past and is genuinely trying to redeem himself and become respected. And depending on the player's choices, he can avoid choosing the most rash and destructive ways to resolve conflicts. He also gets this in the comic tie-in for the game, which suggests that many of his nicer choices are canonical, but it also shows that this is a phase of him trying his best to be more human, which he will ultimately abandon before the start of the main series.

* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Whilst how "bad" Bigby is depends on the player, he is nonetheless a man who takes any insult toward his mother very harshly. She meant a great deal to him and her loss hugely affected his life.

** Players can have Bigby dedicated to the case on the principle that innocent women were murdered for no reason and he wants to get them justice. They can also have him express a genuine desire to atone for everything he did in the past. He can also be quite chivalrous with the women he interacts with, especially Snow.

* FromNobodyToNightmare: [[AllThereInTheManual An unlockable bio]] in the game's collectables reveals Bigby's past. He was born the runt of his litter, and was the only one who stayed with his mother. He was too small to protect her and she eventually died, so he promised her that every day he would eat something bigger than himself until he was big enough [[spoiler:to kill his father the North Wind for abandoning them]]. The runt of the litter eventually became the Big Bad Wolf, the most feared Fable of all.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Snow White describes Bigby as a "Hot Head with a heart of gold." And Bigby can be played to have a more softer and approachable side beneath his more violent nature.
* KryptoniteFactor: Silver, even a single silver bullet in the right place could actually kill him. This is due to the fact that before traveling from the homeland Bigby allowed himself to be cut with a knife stained with lycanthropy. Already being a wolf this gave him the ability to transform into a human but also gave him the weakness to silver that plagues wererwolves.

* HoistByHerOwnPetard: She could have easily finished off or incapacitated Bigby with another silver bullet. Instead she went out of her way to escalate the fight until Bigby [[spoiler:reveals his true form and instantly turns the fight in his favor.]]

* AdaptationalVillainy: The Crooked Man of the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/There_Was_a_Crooked_Man original poem]], which mentions no villainy.

* OffingTheOffspring: According to his profile, he murdered his children because he didn't want to share what little he had.

* TakingYouWithMe: Once it becomes clear to him that [[spoiler:he's losing his trial, he grabs Bigby in an unguarded moment and attempts to throw him down the Witching Well.]]
* TilMurderDoUsPart: Also according to his profile, he murdered his wife for the same reason he killed their children.

* {{Hypocrite}}: If the player chooses to have Bigby kill the crooked man instead of bringing him to trial and picking the dialogue option that Beast is being ridiculous then he will state that Bigby nearly "gouged his eyes out" when Beast was the one who attempted to murder Bigby just because he thought he was sleeping with Beauty.

[[quoteright:268:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/twau_snow_349.png]]

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Something of a DownplayedTrope as Beast is mostly a NiceGuy outside of his mistakenly believing Bigby and Beauty were having an affair, but his motivation for being TrappedInVillainy comes off as less sympathetic than other fables.. [[spoiler: Their reason for going into debt under Crooked Man was because they were obsessed with living above their means due to originally being royals.]]

* VocalEvolution: After the fist act of the first episode, TJ's voice becomes deeper and he loses his accent.

* TheStoolPigeon: [[spoiler:A sympathetic example. Nerissa explains to Bigby in episode 5 that after Faith stole a photo of Crane and Lily together, they had dirt on Crane, one of the Crooked Man's allies. But Nerissa feared that if the Crooked Man found out about this escape plan, the Crooked Man would simply have Nerissa, Faith, and Lily killed. So Nerissa told Georgie everything. If the player picks the "jerk" choice and accuses Nerissa of having sold out her friends, Nerissa will deny it at first, but then admit "yes", she did.]]

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:While Nerissa was all in on Faith and Lily's plan to escape from the Crooked Man and start anew, when she found out that Faith had stolen a picture of Crane and Lily as additional leverage, she feared the Crooked Man would kill all three of them if he found out. So she told Georgie about the plan, and he promised to smooth things over. However, the Crooked Man overruled Georgie and ordered him to kill Faith and Lily, so Nerissa ended up making the wrong choice by informing Georgie, which she feels very guilty over as she confesses all this to Bigby in Episode 5.]]

* HarmfulToMinors: TJ hasn't been having a good time throughout these games. First [[spoiler: the Tweedles threaten to hurt him should Toad sell them out]], then he witnesses [[spoiler:Lily's headless body being dumped in the river]] while out for a swim.

* VocalEvolution: After the first episode, TJ's voice becomes deeper and he loses his accent.

[[quoteright:252:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/twau_tweedledee_2344.png]]

* SirSwearsALot: For the amount a screen time he gets, he's one of the characters who swears the most.

* BadassBaritone: With a pronounced growl that is a carryover from his bestial origin.

* BadassBaritone: He has a very deep and imposing voice.

Nerissa was once The Little Mermaid. Like several other women, she's had to turn to prostitution to survive since The Exodus.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He's the Sheriff of Fabletown and also TheBigBadWolf, heaven help anyone who angers him enough that he hulks out completely.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Something of a DownplayedTrope as Beauty is mostly a NiceGuy outside of his mistakenly believing Bigby and Beauty were having an affair, but his motivation for being TrappedInVillainy comes off as less sympathetic than other fables.. [[spoiler: Their reason for going into debt under Crooked Man was because they were obsessed with living above their means due to originally being royals.]]

[[folder: Bluebeard]]

[[folder: Jack Horner]]

[[folder: Georgie Porgie]]

* DepravedBisexual: His bar is decked out with an equal amount of erotic artwork of men and women, as well as male dancers working for him. His entry in the book of Fables says he's done just about every kind of thing there is to be had. He evens makes a pass or two at Bigby to unsettle him. (It doesn't work.)

* TheChick: Mary is the series' only female villain, and notably the most dangerous.

* SkullForAHead: His face is a stags skull while the rest of his body has normal skin, except for some exposed muscle on his neck.

He was made the Sheriff of Fabletown as it was thought that he was the only one [[AsskickingEqualsAuthority tough enough]] for the job.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Toad is far less of a dick than he appears to be.
** JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: However, he swears at his son and buys fancy cars with the money he earns instead of getting glamours.

* BeAsUnhelpfulAsPossible: A particularly notable example in the games. Whatever help Bigby needs, you can be sure Gren won't give it to him. The only time he doesn't act obstructive is when he's stoned out of his mind, and even then he blacks out before he can give the help he promised to give Bigby.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Just like Beast, he lashes out at Bigby in Episode 5 if he brings back The Crooked Man dead saying he "didn't do shit wrong" when he was the one who attempted to murder Bigby. Bigby may have threw the first punch but Gren initiated the fight and tried to murder him instead of just punching him back.

-->'''Gren:''' God fucking' dammit! ...Of course the dear Princess Snow fucking White is safe and sound! Where were you when we reported this weeks ago, huh? [[WhatTheHellHero '''Where are you when we ever fuckin' need you'''?!]] If you'd given one ''ounce'' of a shit about her, about any of us, she might have been saved! She might have been cared for!

* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: He advocates for this when Bigby is interrogating whomever he captured at the end of episode one, and is pissed off if Bigby doesn't comply with his suggestion.

* {{Narcissist}}: All Bluebeard cares about is himself. In the third episode, the player can have Bigby ask Bluebeard why he cares on capturing Crane and its just because Crane was stealing his money and not about the murders of Faith and Lily showing his uncaring and narcissistic side.

* RedHerring: In his original story, he decapitated his wives. In this game, women are dying of decapitation. In Episode 1, one of the suspects Bigby can name is Bluebeard, purely from the ''modus operandi'', but he's never seriously thought of as a suspect after (chiefly because he has a rock solid alibi).

* {{Sadist}}: Bluebeard is a serial killer who murdered all his wives. In Episode 2, if Bigby tortures Tweedle Dee/Woodsman then Bluebeard won't stop him and smile the whole time seeing amusement in their torture. In addition, if Bigby brings the Crooked Man alive and then rips his head off, then he's the only one of the crowd to have a straight face and not flinch or look disgusted.

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He was made the Sheriff because it was thought he was the only one who was actually tough enough to deal with rowdy Fables.

* AxCrazy: Very much so. She even uses the Woodsman's [[AnAxeToGrind enchanted axe]] against Bigby.

* {{Hypocrite}}: He is disgusted when Bigby usually goes above the law in order to get results or solve cases when Crane`s the one who abuses his position for his own benefit and doesn`t even work when Bigby at least tries to do the right thing.

* {{Hypocrite}}: Just like Beast, he lashes out at Bigby in Episode 5 if he brings back The Crooked Man dead saying he "didn`t do shit wrong" when he was the one who attempted to murder Bigby. Bigby may have threw the first punch but Gren initiated the fight and tried to murder him instead of just punching him back.

* {{Sadist}}: Bluebeard is a serial killer who murdered all his wives. In Episode 2, if Bigby tortures Tweedle Dee/Woodsman then Bluebeard won`t stop him and smile the whole time seeing amusement in their torture. In addition, if Bigby brings the Crooked Man alive and then rips his head off, then he`s the only one of the crowd to have a straight face and not flinch or look disgusted.

* {{Narcissist}}: Other than his love for Vivian, Georgie only cares for himself and even treats his other employees like they are beneath him which always earns Bigby`s wrath on him. Also, he only cares about Bigby`s investigation with the murder of his prostitutes (who he actually killed) when Bigby destroys his stuff and beats him up.
