Though, completely averted with most of the other characters. Even before the FAYZ, when he saved a busload of his classmates from going over a cliff. Taking charge when things get tough and attempting (not always succeeding) to go back to being a Ordinary High-School Student is an established character trait for Sam.
The Apocalypse Brings Out the Best in People: Sam takes the lead during the FAYZ, despite being completely average during normal circumstances. This is just the major characters - anyone else's fates are debatable. For the record, those who are confirmed to have made it out of the FAYZ are Sam, Astrid, Diana, Edilio, Dekka, Quinn, Lana, Al bert, Taylor and the Artful Roger. #Gone home tvtropes series#
Anyone Can Die: Following in the footsteps of Remnants, the series has a surprisingly high body count for a YA book series.Howard as well but following in the footsteps of Zil we'll never know since he's dead as of Fear. It's popular Fanon that he is gay but we'll never find out as he's dead as of Plague. Whenever he gets a Character Focus chapter, a lot of it is him admiring Lance and his looks. Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence: Little Pete, after his body dies at the end of Plague.Justified, however, when it is revealed that the meteor that carried The Darkness seems to have broken reality.

Artistic License Biology: Lampshaded when Astrid points out that there is no gene for shooting lasers out of your hands. 
Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: Drake, he burns frogs, microwaves a puppy, and draws pictures of weapons. 
For Little Pete in Light: "It is not okay to hit.". For Astrid in Plague: "A simple act of murder.". For everyone in Hunger: "Hungry in the dark.". Anyone Can Die: At the beginning of Hunger, the list of people alive in Perdido Beach is at 332, and at least sixty names come up on a regular basis. Anguished Declaration of Love: Dekka to Brianna during her "surgery". And I Must Scream: Brittney and Drake being buried alive. Alliterative Name: Lana Lazar and Edilio Escobar. Aerith and Bob: We go all the way from Sam to Drake to Astrid to Caine to Zil to Orsay. Averted in Fear when Connie attempts to stop the government from bombing the FAYZ. And when one gets pulled in by accident, he quickly goes insane and inadvertently helps resurrect Drake. #Gone home tvtropes full#
As of Fear Astrid definitely counts as a full on Action Girl it would be easier to list the exceptions (Astrid, Mary, and Diana), though even they have their moments. Action Girl: Lana, Dekka, Brianna, Taylor, Penny, Brittany.
Acid Reflux Nightmare: Sam, after eating canned asparagus. In Fear, Cigar gets drunk and accidentally kills a fellow fisherman. Orc's entire character arc consists of this, particularly in Plague, when he accidentally kills a little kid when he was drunk. In Plague, Taylor took advantage of Sam and made out with him when he was drunk. Above the Influence: Averted every time the characters drink. That works for a little while, but only until Light - Sam and Caine both leave to look for Gaia, so Edilio becomes the final Mayor of Perdido Beach, and actually maintains that position until the barrier comes down. Sam then left again for the Lake Tramonto settlement at the end, so Caine came back and became the absolute ruler of Perdido Beach. That turned out to be a disaster, so Sam returned as of Plague. Sam then took over for Hunger, and then got tired of the responsibility and gave the leadership to the Town Council in Lies, run by Astrid. Caine waltzed in and took over, but left after the end of Gone. Abdicate the Throne: The leadership of Perdido Beach is like a game of musical chairs. The series provides examples of the following tropes:
