* [[{{DefrostingIceQueen}} DefrostingIceKing]]: In Season One, he starts off being very icy indeed. Thankfully, Haley and Lucas activate the metaphorical radiators and Nathan gradually realizes that he wants to be a better person than he's been.

* TheFashionista: Starts her own fashion company. Unlike most TV characters that fit this trope, Brooke runs her company in a very conscientious way, refusing to use real fur and demanding that one of her models ''gain'' ten pounds before she is allowed on her magazine's cover, stating "[[{{SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped}} Anorexia is a disease, not a fashion statement.]]"

to:

* ActionGirl
* ADateWithRosiePalms: After Rachel catches Brooke treating herself to one of these, she coins the phrase "Brooke-ing yourself." It subsequently became a [[{{UnusualEuphemism}} euphemism]] both in-universe and among the fans.

* HollywoodPudgy: In RealLife, Sophia Bush has said in interviews that she is considered the "curvy" one in the cast, which is pretty ridiculous.

* BadassTeacher: Becomes one after the four-year jump, or as one of the characters put it: "Tutor Girl becomes Teacher Girl". She gets an undeniably BadassTeacher moment when [[{{TyrantTakesTheHelm}} the new MoralGuardian Principal demands]] that she make a live apology for the "crime" of printing Sam's essay in the school newspaper, just because it mentions sex, drugs, and violence. Haley instead tells her class that she told them to write about the truth and that she's proud of them for doing so, says that she'd be a hypocrite if she made a fake apology, and leaves the room, urging her students to always stand up for the truth.

* CoolLoser: He gets popularity soon enough, however.

* ArchnemesisDad: ''This.'' Dan is this trope personified a thousand times over, both to Lucas (Dan initially alternates between pretending Lucas doesn't exist one minute, and then treating him like trash the next minute) and Nathan (who he uses as a mere vessel for his own self-loathing). In one early episode, Nathan is about to score the winning shot at the annual Father-Son Basketball Game at the high school, when Dan ''aggressively'' moves in to stop him, despite the game being for laughs, growling "I couldn't let you beat me, son!". Honestly, along with Lionel Luthor from {{Smallville}}, Dan is probably the best example of this trope on TV (appropriately enough, Dan and Nathan's relationship in the first few seasons is A LOT like Lionel's and Lex's in the first few seasons of Smallville).
