* DamselOutOfDistress: This is a large part of Claire's character, and justified, given that she was a nurse during World War II and used to dangerous situations and the sight of men seriously injured because of war and violence. It is also because Claire has an indomitable will, and refuses to play the part of a victim in any situation. In situations such as [[spoiler: the Inverness witch trial and Randall's attempt at raping her,]] Claire openly fights back and does not let her fear overcome her.

* ItsAllMyFaultItsAllMyFault: Claire is guilt-ridden over her choice to stay in the past, as it means leaving Frank behind and betraying him by choosing to love Jamie.

* TookALevelInBadassTookALevelInBadass: Near the end of ''Outlander'' Claire boldly searches the Highlands for Jamie with just Murtagh by her side, sneaks into Wentworth to find Jamie, and is later beset upon by wolves outside the prison and manages to kill one with her bare hands (and a scarf!). She is also the one who forms the plan which gets Jamie out of Wentworth Prison and away from the death sentence hanging over his head. Not to mention she successfully and very practically sets Jamie's mangled right hand in MacRannoch's house with only 18th century medicine to help her.

* BreakTheCutie

to:

* BreakTheCutieBreakTheCutie: Randall certainly attempts to do this during his torture of Jamie in Wentworth Prison. It's largely due to Claire that he doesn't succeed.



* FireForgedFriends: Jamie and Lord John, in a way. At first Jamie is hostile toward John, especially after realising that John is homosexual and in love with him, but eventually thaws and comes to trust and like him. Although they do not have to fight on the same side in anything to get to that point.



* ItsAllMyFault

to:

* ItsAllMyFaultItsAllMyFault: Blames himself for his father's death, as he feels that if he had accepted Randall's offer of buggery instead of flogging then he would still be alive. He also blames himself for [[spoiler: the death of Geneva Dunsay, as she had died giving birth to a child that had been conceived the one night she and Jamie slept together. It's hard to say whether he is right in blaming himself so much--Geneva could have easily have died even if it had been Ellesmere's child that she had been carrying.]]

* DarkAndTroubledPastDarkAndTroubledPast: From the moment Jamie is taken to Fort William on the charge of obstruction, this trope comes into effect. Jamie suffers two brutal floggings, seeing his father die during the second flogging, is hunted as a convicted escaped murderer for four years (although he did not in fact commit the murder he was accused of), is seriously injured twice and has to return to France to recover, is brutally tortured and raped by Randall in Wentworth Prison in exchange for Claire's freedom... the list is endless.
** After Culloden he is forced to live in a cave for seven years, before he chooses to give himself up to the English to keep his family from starving. He does not seem to have many good memories of his time in Ardsmuir Prison. And then after that he is paroled and forced into indentured servitude as a groom in Helwater, basically a slave to the Dunsays... and after he finally is pardoned and allowed to return home, he finds that he's not truly home, and that he's lost his connection to the land which he grew up in.



* MyGreatestFailure

to:

* MyGreatestFailureMyGreatestFailure: Jamie will likely never forgive himself for [[spoiler: bedding Geneva Dunsay (although he was blackmailed into it by Geneva herself) and causing the pregnancy which led to her DeathByChildBirth. He is seen doing penance for it by Lord John a week or two after her death, by lying on the chapel floor covered with nothing but his shirt every night until Geneva's funeral.]]

* EvenTheGuysWantHim
* FlorenceNightingaleEffect

to:

* EvenTheGuysWantHim
EvenTheGuysWantHim: Boy, do they ever. The Duke of Sandringham makes indecent advances upon Jamie's person when Jamie is sixteen years old and staying at Castle Leoch (in fact, that is the reason why Jamie leaves the castle so abruptly during that stay), practically attempting to rape Jamie in the stables at one point. Jack Randall also makes his interest known, in a very brutal, sadistic fashion. Lord John is also madly in love with Jamie, but thankfully accepts that his love is unrequited and seems content to remain a close friend of Jamie.

Although Brianna accepts her mother's choice and blesses her trip through the stones, it is revealed much later that she does feel abandoned by her.

The result of this is that Claire is bumped up to a desk job and discreetly encouraged to take leave from the hospital for a time.

* BodyHorror: Has horrifying layered scars on his back from repeated floggings from when he was imprisoned in Fort William for 'obstruction'. [[spoiler: During his torture in Wentworth Prison Jamie's back is flayed, his face and body are brutally beaten and bruised, his skin is marred by horrific burns caused by a hot poker, and his right hand is grotesquely broken. As eloquently stated by Jamie, the only part of him that isn't injured is between his legs.]]

ClingyJealousGirl: Not really to an extreme degree, but Claire is seen to be possessive of Jamie at times and jealous of other people who are in (unrequited) love with Jamie. She is ''very'' jealous of Laoghaire.

After going through the stones Claire has to acquaint herself with life in 18th century Scotland, and eventually is forced to marry Jamie Fraser to protect herself from Black Jack Randall, thus starting her life as a wife to him (Jamie). After Claire finally chooses to stay permanently with Jamie in the 18th century as his wife, they journey to Lallybroch to set Jamie's affairs in order and meet Jenny, Jamie's sister, thus signalling another new beginning. And, after [[spoiler: Jamie's escape from Wentworth, his, Claire and Murtagh's hurried flight across the Channel, arrival in Ste Anne's monastery, and after Jamie heals from his physical and emotional wounds that BJR's torture left on him, Jamie and Claire decide to take up an offer to go to Paris and have Jamie become a companion to Prince Charles and manager of a wine business run by Jamie's cousin Jared Fraser.]]

** On the eve of Culloden a pregnant Claire is forced to return to the 20th century, and reunites with Frank and becomes wife to him again. Soon after Frank takes Claire and they settle in Boston, Massachusetts, where he has a job as a history professor.
* SurprisePregnancySurprisePregnancy: Claire's pregnancy with Bree is certainly this. The realization of it shocks Claire, on the eve of Culloden when she attempts to insist staying with Jamie in the 18th century (and dying with him there, as they both know Jamie will die, whether in the battle or by execution). Although Jamie had known for weeks (or months), Claire did not know she was pregnant (or was unwilling to admit it to herself) until Jamie pointed it out to her.

However, she miscarried when she was well into her fifth month, for unknown reasons, though stress was most likely a factor in it. On the eve of the battle of Culloden, she discovers that she is pregnant again, and this becomes a major force for her return through the stones to the 20th century--Jamie begs her to go, knowing that he is a dead man walking and wanting to spare Claire and their child from what he and Claire both knew would be rampant in the Highlands in the years following Culloden. Claire didn't want to leave Jamie but did so for their child's sake, a child she hated and resented during the months of her pregnancy being the cause of her separation from Jamie.

The Moorwens were an intelligent species living in their own ecosystem, when Kainan and his people brutally burned most of them alive and hunted the rest down before tossing them into a mass grave. As a result, the Moorwen is the last of it's kind and considering that it shows not only intelligence but genuine emotion and sentience, it's very hard to blame it for wanting a little revenge.]]
