* StoutStrength: Cord plays with the trope. He's ''very'' strong (bordering on CharlesAtlasSuperpower territory) and looks pudgy when fully clothed (partly on account of being built like a fireplug, partly on account of being baby-faced). However, when he [[ClothingDamage loses his shirt]] during a fight in the first book, he's revealed to actually be quite trim.

Dark Skinned Blond is no longer a trope

* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Samella is a downplayed example; she has dirty-blonde hair and still looks tanned after three years in an environment not conducive to suntanning.

* HumansAreWhite: Averted. Cord, a redheaded, freckle-faced Scot, is the only central character who seems to be explicitly white. Samella is a gray-eyed blonde with an Irish surname, but apparently [[DarkSkinnedBlonde still looks tanned after three years indentured to an electronics firm]]; Heleth, although pale from living underground for the first seventeen years of her life, is ambiguous. Jeko and Rontal are explicitly ''not'' white; Rontal is black, Jeko is Japanese-American.

Actually she said she wouldn't have had the nerve to bluff when asked if she'd really rigged the asteroid to blow. Whether she would have had the nerve to atomise everyone or not wasn't asked.
