A Lebensauger who wants to be a Grimm and kill all Wesen alongside Nick.
* DeathSeeker: After his true form is revealed to Nick, he wants Nick to kill him as he is disgusted with his own existence.
* DirtyCoward: Runs from Nick the second he is found and doesn't even try to fight back. After his true form is shown he wants to die not only for his existence as a Wesen himself but so he doesn't receive any punishment for his actions.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Calls Nick a "traitor to his kind" by not killing all Wesen but he's killing Wesen when he himself is one.
* KillThemAll: How he feels about Wesen as he thinks that their existence is a mistake (even his own).
* LackOfEmpathy: Anyone who's Wesen doesn't deserve to live in his eyes as he believes that just being Wesen is enough to be killed and will do so himself if he has too.
* MoralMyopia: Anything he says and does is right even if it causes pain to innocent people.
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: His solution for any Wesen as when Nick questioned him on the phone, he stated that Berna was Wesen and that's all he needs to deal with him.
* {{Narcissist}}: Believes he is never wrong on his delusional views towards Wesen and even tells Nick that he is better than him as only he can bring justice to Portland.
* {{Sadist}}: While not psychically showing, he seems to enjoy torturing his victims to death as he burned them over and over again till they expired.
* SerialKiller: Killed two Wesen in brutal fashion and nearly kills Bud so he can rid the area of Wesen.
* VillainHasAPoint: Despite his delusional actions, he does make a good point to Nick that he was the one who saved Donna Reynolds and if the cops did it their way, then she may have been dead or mentally traumatized for the rest of her life if it wasn't for him.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: To Donna Reynolds and her family as he was the one who had her location revealed and saved her life.

* Kill'EmAll: How he feels about Wesen as he thinks that their existence is a mistake (even his own).

* KillEmAll: How he feels about Wesen as he thinks that their existence is a mistake (even his own).

A Schakal hunting for the Coins of Zakynthos at the behest of the the Dragon's Tongue, a Japanese Wesen organization. He is responsible for the death of Nick's parents.

* DarkChick: She fulfils this role for Black Claw operations in Portland, and especially for Conrad Bonaparte.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Tricks Adalind into [[spoiler: de-powering Nick by letting her think he has her child (he doesn't) and when she comes to get her child, he throws her in the dungeon and cruelly rubs his deception in her face.]] That being said, no one could argue that Adalind didn't bring it on herself.
** He does it again when he [[spoiler: inflicts an elaborate MindScrew on her in the dungeon.]] It's quite bizarre... [[SarcasmMode And it couldn't have happened to a nicer person.]]
** He was also [[spoiler: the mastermind behind his uncle's death.]]

* ContraltoOfDanger: Despite being the youngest major female character, she's got the deepest voice.

* {{Determinator}}: She has spent years tracking a mysterious killer who defies everything even she knows about the world.
* GetOutOfJailFreeCard: She was briefly arrested for lying about her current status, but after Nick and Hank basically break her out to help them with La Llorona, once the three return with the missing children Renard confirms that all charges will be dropped since she was of vital help in the case.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Valentina can be stubborn and get extremely focused on her goal, but in the final confrontation she prioritises saving the latest children over trying to punish her nephew's killer.

* BadassBaritone: A very deep voice that only deepens when woged.

* HeroicComedicSociopath: Kelly seems to enjoy what she does, and the show gets a couple of funny moments (as noted above) from her sheer casualness with killing Wisen.

[[folder: Kelly Schade Burkhardt]]

* BigScrewedUpFamily: In addition to having one half of the family tree being Grimms and the other half Hexenbiests, his parents were mortal enemies until Adalind turned to Nick for protection from the Royals and Juliette, so the living arrangement is awkward to say the least; and his half-sister Diana is a powerful Wesen who may or may not be a DarkMessiah.

* BrotherSisterTeam: [[spoiler: When he and Diana reach adulthood, they start working together to keep the evil Wesen at bay.]]
* ChildByRape: Consider that Adalind had sex with Nick while pretending to be Juliette, it's not far off this trope.

* MoralityPet: For both his parents- Adalind just wants to raise him right and wishes to permanently get rid of her powers to do so, and according to the interviews, Kelly is the one thing that is keeping Nick from going off the deep end [[spoiler: now that both Juliette and his mother are dead. Well Juliette's not dead, per se, but she's [[CameBackWrong not the same anymore.]]]]

* BrotherSisterTeam: [[spoiler:Diana has become the wesen in a Grimm/wesen team with her brother Kelly in the DistantFinale at the end of the series finale.]]
* BullyingADragon: In "Blind Love", a disgruntled lieutenant who was promised a promotion to captain kidnaps her to get back at Renard. Before long, he's beaten to a bloody pulp and ''begging'' Renard to come and retrieve her and put him out of his misery.

* EnfantTerrible: An example of this, if her impressive powers at such an early age are anything to go by. It only becomes clearer when she appears as a pre-teen in Seasons 5 & 6, where she is very powerful but also [[spoiler:now willing to kill anyone who gets in the way of her parents being together.]] To her credit though, a lot of her more troubling behaviors can be attributed to being mentally 2-ish in the body of an 8-ish year old with the powers of a ''god'', rather than any innate evilness...probably

* MamasBabyPapasMaybe: [[spoiler: Due to Adalind sleeping with ''both'' Eric and Sean Renard, the baby's definitely a Royal, the only question is who her father is and how close her connection to the throne is.]]
* PayEviluntoEvil: Frequently does this. She's killed 2 members of Black Claw, and tortured a cop who kidnapped her.
