* AnimalMotifs: Bees. She keeps several hives near her hut and has been known to Borrow them on multiple occasions. On a metaphorical level, she is the queen bee of the witches' hierarchy [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial (that definitely does not exist, because Granny wouldn't allow it)]] and she grooms Tiffany to replace her as a new queen. Much like a bee, people respect and fear her, because although she is good and helpful, you ''will'' feel her sting if you don't tread the line.

* WeAreStrugglingTogether: That bit about "overcoming their differences"? Takes a lot of work. Granny and Nanny often tend to gang up on the third of the coven first, leading to lots of bickering, but there's nothing stopping Granny and Nanny bickering with each other as well.

* HisOwnWorstEnemy: As Granny puts it, in her own indelicate way, there's no-one quite like Magrat for getting in the way of her own life.
* MyNaymeIs: Her unfortunate name is due to the fact that her mother couldn't spell "Margaret" on her birth certificate.[[note]]In some British accents, "Margaret" is pronounced "MAH-grit."[[/note]] When Magrat names her own daughter Esmerelda, she adds a "Note Spelling" to the christening card. This doesn't turn out all that well.

* MamasBabyPapasMaybe: There is some uncertainty as to whether his father truly is Sobriety Ogg, who by all records died some time before Shawn was born. While there is a bit of wibblyness thanks to the witches's antics in ''Wyrd Sisters'', given Nanny's own proclivities, some doubt is not unwarranted.

* UltimateBlacksmith: The greatest blacksmith in the world, he can shoe anything, even an ''ant''. The catch is, he ''must'' shoe anything people bring him to be shod, or else he loses the ability to do so. One of the odd things he has to shoe on a semi-regular basis is Death's horse, Binky. Jason, for his part, takes this in stride, doing the job blindfolded, working very hard not to think about what's going on, and never, ever using the metal from the horseshoes he replaces for another living creature.
