* AmbitionIsEvil: Rawneth's ambition is her defining characteristic. In her earliest chronological appearance, she wanted to blood-bind the Knorth heir Greshan to her, and marry him. Since then, she's hired assassins to kill her kinsman Randiroc, ordered the massacre of the Knorth ladies, and engaged in BlackMagic to advance her interests. It's paid off, too: as Randir Matriarch, mother of Lord Randir, a powerful sorceress, and the patroness of the Priests' College, she's currently the most powerful woman in the Kencyrath.

The whole thing has shades of ProtagonistCenteredMorality in it too: Jame and Kirien becoming powerful within their houses despite being women is shown as positive, in the vein of YouGoGirl, but when Rawneth does it it's despicable.

* IKnowYourTrueName: As punishment for failing, Rawneth takes his name away.
-->''That was what Rawneth had done to the cadets who had failed to kill her son's rival: she had taken away their names. Without a name, soul and body crumble. No wonder they had been too wasted even to cast proper shadows. Soon, it would be as if they had never been born, except for an aching, nameless void in the lives of those who had loved them.''

*EnemyMine: The Randir and Caineron are allies in that they both oppose the Knorth. But both houses want power--want to be highlord--and if the Knorth were out of the way, they would turn on each other in a heartbeat, since their once-ally would then be their new biggest rival to power.
