* PersecutingProsecutor: Margot’s current role as of the Dynamite continuation. Beneath her dutiful claims that she wants to protect the human populace (specifically, New York’s) from homicidal and feral creatures is a woman who wants to prevent the human world from acknowledging another sentient race as being on the same social footing as humans simply because their mere existence ''dared'' to disrupt her perceived status quo. Her cross-referencing (which is portrayed as a combination of TwistingTheWords and DoubleThink) even dictates that, regardless if the gargoyles didn’t do anything wrong or their actions are heroic, [[CategorismAsAPhobia the human individuals’ fear of them alone is enough to justify them not having any rights and subjecting them to degradation and objectification]]. She even goes as far as to have John Castaway, the leader of a notoriously violent gargoyle-hating group, testify on her behalf.

* KnowNothingKnowItAll: Margot after the existence of the Gargoyles is revealed. In "The Journey", she rants against Macbeth in a news debate saying that the Gargoyles are a threat to society, basing solely on her own unproven opinions. In fact, everything she says about them is followed by a scene that completely contradicts it. She also weaponizes her position as Assistant District Attorney to insist that the public believe them to be incapable of benevolence or intelligence even when she has no evidence or past experiences to support these statements

*AscendedExtra: In the animated series, she was portrayed simply as a mildly annoying background character. However, as the series continued in comic book format, she was revealed to be a relentlessly judgmental city prosecutor who aims to have the public view the Gargoyles species as undeserving of humane treatment and nothing more than dumb animals. In the Dynamite Comics revival, she is depicted as a major obstacle against the main characters.
*AggressiveCategorism: [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] and with emphasis on the “aggressive” aspect of this trope. The majority of characters in this series have the benefit of past experiences to justify their stigmas against certain groups. Not so much Margot whose claims that gargoyles are nothing but bloodthirsty and brainless animals contradict her prior experiences with them. Even when Goliath proves her wrong in front of the entire court (in the Dynamite continuation), she still has the gall to treat him with belittling disdain. Her reasoning boils down to “gargoyles aren’t human; therefore, they have no humanizing features nor should they. And any humanizing trait they exhibit is merely a fluke that should be dismissed immediately.
*AwfulWeddedLife: To put it mildly, Margot doesn’t think highly of Brendan - not wasting a minute to emasculate him whenever he tries to do something right; and even on their first appearance in the show, we see Margot lock Brendan out of their car (though he fails to notice it) when some thugs threaten them as Brendan tries fixing it. Brendan’s reactions indicate that having to put up with it is frying his nerves.
*BullyingADragon:
** In issue #9 of the Dynamite comics continuity, when her attempts to frame Gargoyles as mindless and not sentient fall flat, Margot hopes to win her case of “proving” that Gargoyles are an absolute danger by [[InvokedTrope invoking]] and [[ExploitedTrope exploiting]] this trope, hoping to provoke an angry reaction from Goliath as a means to “prove” her stance. Unfortunately for her, Goliath is savvy about this underhanded tactic and promptly calls her out on it in a calm and professional manner.
** She does this again to Elisa after the latter gives her testimony in issue #10, even leaning in close to Elisa’s face with a crap-eating grin as she condescendingly asks her to repeat her answer; almost as if she is goading Elisa into punching her in the face in front of the entire court to incriminate her alongside Goliath.
*CosmicPlaything: See RecurringExtra. New York theoretically has tens of thousands of inhabitants, but these two keep inadvertently penetrating TheMasquerade.
*DeadpanSnarker: [[DeconstructedTrope Deconstructed]]. Based on her body language and choice of words, she seems to fancy herself as one of these. However, most of her comments lack wit and keen observation, making her come off as unbearably elitist and judgmental instead of clever or sardonic.
*EvilCannotComprehendGood: As shown in the Dynamite continuation. Slighty [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] in that she isn’t exactly “evil”, but still very antagonistic and biased. When Elisa professes her love for Goliath as part of her testimony, Margot undermines her attempt to humanize Goliath by insinuating that Elisa is just “unhealthily obsessed with a monster”. Out-of-context, it’s understandable that Elisa’s testimony could be perceived as such, but considering Margot’s poor treatment of her own husband, it’s very likely that even if Goliath was a human instead of a gargoyle, Margot wouldn’t empathize with Elisa’s genuine devotion and care for him.
*FantasticRacism: Towards gargoyles.
*FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence: Since the start of the series and up to this point, she hasn’t had a single encounter with a hostile gargoyle; not even with Demona, Thailog, or Coldsteel. Yet, the fact that there is another bipedal, humanoid species coexisting with humans on Earth is enough to make her feel repulsed and want to use her legal position to persecute them just for not being human. Slightly [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] in that she might not want them dead (for now, at least), but she ''really'' doesn’t want them to be acknowledged for any human-like capabilities or qualities nor treated as intellectual equals to humans.
*HateSink: A mildly unlikable character in her early appearances, she graduates to this in the comics continuations as she pettily [[CourtroomEpisode shoots down all of the arguments that gargoyles should be treated as equals to humans]] in the most snide and condescending ways, all despite her previous experiences proving her points incorrect (along with just being snide and condescending in general). And, compared to other antagonists, her reasons for hating gargoyles are very shallow - focusing solely on the superficial aspects and nothing else. Her disparaging attitude at Goliath’s “sentience trial” - including being a SmugSmiler - only adds to the flame. Also, most of her interactions with her husband involve her making him feel inferior or inefficient.
*IRejectYourReality: In the 2022 revival comic (issue #5). As if being [[UngratefulBastard ungrateful]], a KnowNothingKnowItAll and [[FantasticRacism Fantastic Racist]] wasn’t bad enough, she presents her case in court declaring that Gargoyles should be considered mindless animals and not people - scoffing at and denying claims that they are capable of thought, self-awareness or even speech. This, despite her presence and interaction with the Gargoyles in both the first part of the ''City of Stone'' arc and the first part of the ''Hunter's Moon'' arc, being rescued by the Gargoyles, having a short dialogue exchange with them (in the City of Stone episode), and being in close proximity enough to hear their properly-formed sentences and conversations with other characters; COMPLETELY derailing her claims that gargoyles aren’t capable of intelligence.
*InSeriesNickname: In the Dynamite revival, during Goliath’s “sentience trial”, Lexington refers to Margot as “The Wicked Witch of the West Side”.
*KnowNothingKnowItAll: Margot after the existence of the Gargoyles is revealed. In "The Journey", she rants against Macbeth in a news debate saying that the Gargoyles are a threat to society, basing solely on her own unproven opinions. In fact, everything she says about them is followed by a scene that completely contradicts it. She also weaponizes her position as Assistant District Attorney to insist that the public believe them to be incapable of benevolence or intelligence even when she has no evidence or past experiences to support these statements
*MoralMyopia: In the Dynamite Comics continuation. In issue #10, her closing statement dictates that the court should rule in her favor because it is too small in scope to redefine the definition of humanity in regards to gargoyles’ rights. ''This'', coming from someone who spent the majority of the CourtroomEpisode using her legal position to define what is and what isn’t “human” on the city’s behalf despite being just a single person herself.
*NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: In issue #9 of the Dynamite continuation, she states that Goliath shouldn’t be present in the courtroom for his trial because of the risk of him bodily harming everyone else present. When Goliath provides his testimony and proves that gargoyles are more than capable of being civil and intelligent, she immediately tries getting under his skin as a means to make him angry in order to win her case; thus, attempting to create the danger that she claimed to want to prevent. It gives the strong impression that, deep down, she couldn’t care less if she is right in her baseless claims about gargoyles or if she is doing a service to the public so long as she can live in a world where another humanoid, bipedal species isn’t treated as the intellectual equal to humans.
*PersecutingProsecutor: Margot’s current role as of the Dynamite continuation. Beneath her dutiful claims that she wants to protect the human populace (specifically, New York’s) from homicidal and feral creatures is a woman who wants to prevent the human world from acknowledging another sentient race as being on the same social footing as humans simply because their mere existence ''dared'' to disrupt her perceived status quo.

*SmugSnake: Margot. Being proven wrong won’t stop her snotty behavior and she will continue to put on an air of overwrought confidence to emphasize that she knows what she is talking about even if she is incorrect.
*UngratefulBitch: This was initially out of fear. However, after the gargoyles' existence is revealed, Margot embodies this trope in a far nastier way. She is also this to Brendan. No matter how much he tries to do right by her, she always finds a reason to belittle him.
