* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Of the whopping ''three'' people that Hazel gave a damn about before going off the deep end, she had the closest relationship with Tuba, whom she saw as an adoptive mother, and Amelia, her creator and de facto mother whose approval she seeked through her tenure as an Apex member.
* EvenEvilCanBeLoved: As terrible as she eventually became, the Master of Masters/[[spoiler:Alrick]] was legitimately fond of her, and while he could've done more to steer her away from the path of evil, he did do his best and was kind to her whenever possible, and is legitimately disheartened when [[spoiler:his revelation that he's Alrick causes her to go off the deep end and become a villain.]]

Added DiffLines:

* NatureVersusNurture: Hazel only retains her canonical nice personality while with Tuba, her adoptive mother figure, during Act 1. Once Tuba [[spoiler: is assimilated]] by accident, Hazel spends the rest of the story either under the care of Amelia, who's not winning any "Mother of the Year" awards anytime soon, or left to her own devices, leaving her unable to stay on the straight part and instead plummet into a darker mind.

* AdaptationalAbomination: Canon Hazel is a half-Denizen with shapeshifting powers, and that's it. ''This'' Hazel is a HumanoidAbomination who doubles as TheAssimilator, [[spoiler: and that's before she assumes her true form.]]



* ArtifactAlias: Despite it being revealed her "name" is actually [[spoiler: the number on her pod and thus was NeverGivenAName]], people keep calling her Hazel regardless.



* NeverGivenAName: [[AmbiguousSituation Possibly]]. [[spoiler: The numbers on her pod have a numerical designation that, when decyphered, spell out Hazel. What this means is unclear at the moment.]]

* ArtifactAlias: Hazel is merely a nickname [[spoiler: that's the literal translation of her numerical designation]], but event after this is revealed, everybody keeps calling her Hazel, with the girl herself never bothering to correct them.


Added DiffLines:

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Tuba, Amelia, and the Master of Masters/[[spoiler:Alrick]] are pretty much the only people on the Train that Hazel gives a damn about, as the former's death and the middle's approval are part of the reason she turns antagonistic in the first place. After [[spoiler: Amelia's treatment of her and Alrick's revelation]] however, Tuba becomes pretty much the ''only'' being Hazel cares about.


Added DiffLines:

* WellDoneSonGuy: Hazel's ''desperate'' for Amelia's approval through most of the story, which is why she works hard to please her. After the events of Act 2 and 3, however, she stops caring about this.

* BondVillainStupidity: During the climax of the story, despite [[spoiler: Goh being a sitting duck and his Second Chance being the only reason Chloe doesn't stay dead, Hazel never once targets him, instead focusing on killing Chloe repeatedly until he enters the fray himself.]]


Added DiffLines:

* ConflictKiller: Her [[spoiler: takeover of the Apex]] and plans for the Train eventually end up becoming such a big threat that just about ''everyone'' still around set aside their differences to stop her once and for all.


Added DiffLines:

* MagikarpPower: Even with [[spoiler: the power to assimilate Denizens]], Hazel wasn't particularly strong early in the story, with most of her victories coming down to either her escaping or outwiting her enemy. By the time she [[spoiler: assumes her Steward form]] however, she becomes one of the biggest threats to the Train.

** Her OneHitKill also only works on Denizens, not Passengers, forcing her to face [[spoiler: Chloe and Goh]] properly.



* AmbiguousInnocence: As much of a monster as she became, Hazel is still ultimately a little girl who's been given way too much crap by the world and didn't get a chance to see right from wrong before she went nuts.



* ArchEnemy: After [[spoiler: pinning the blame on them with a WoundedGazelleGambit, and then showing remorse for nearly killing Hazel Hughes just to pull a KillAndReplace on her]], it's safe to say she's this to Zenith Fantasy.

* FatalFlaw: Her inability to think things through bites her many times, from [[spoiler: not trying to kill Hazel Hughes at the Cupid Bee Car]] to [[spoiler: falling for Goh's bait and giving Chloe enough grief to unleash an AngstNuke.]]

** She tries doing this to [[spoiler:Goh in the final battle, but fails on two accounts: 1) she makes the mistake that it was Specter who got him on the train and 2) talking smack about Specter ''while Chloe is within earshot'' gives Chloe enough emotional anguish to unleash her attack that severely weakens her.]]
