* KickTheSonOfABitch: To both Mayne and Garcia.

* HeelFaceTurn: Since [[spoiler:Zero lost toe Roland in the Soul Battle and thus absorbed into him]], Isabella drops allegiance with the Church for Roland's side as she believes him to be the best chance for humanity to win in the Battle of Divine Will.

* AxeCrazy: Whatever TheChurch did to her over her centuries' worth of life left her clearly unhinged...[[TooDumbToLive Then Mayne decided to torture her for "insolence."]]

** AssimilationBackfire: [[spoiler:Her final fate when she tries her "Battle of Souls" against Roland; she got assimilated by Roland instead.]]
* BeingTorturedMakesYouEvil: Her torture under Mayne certainly made her worse off, and the narration states Mayne isn't the first...

* UsedToBeASweetKid: [[spoiler:After her ability causes her to be absorbed by Roland, and she's freed from the effects of the thousands of souls she assimilated, the formerly sadistic leader of the church, Zero, shows herself to be a very innocent, friendly and caring child in the DreamLand Roland gains from her.]]

* UsedToBeASweetKid: [[spoiler:After her ability causes her to be absorbed by Roland, and she's freed from the effects of the thousands of souls she assimilated, the formerly sadistic leader of the church, Zero, shows herself to be a very innocent, friendly and caring child in the DreamWorld Roland gains from her.]]

One of the most, if not the most, dangerous of the "Purified." She's one of the only two antagonists to give Roland a hard time.

One of the Zero's lieutenants. She later joined Roland because all she really cared about was winning the war against the demons.

** AssimilationBackfire: [[spoiler: Her final fate when she tries her "Battle of Souls" against Roland; she got assimilated by Roland instead.]]

* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: [[spoiler: How Roland was able to defeat her, with him using her own "Battle of Souls" against her.]]

* DeathByIrony: [[spoiler: For a Witch that consumes countless people who lost against her in her "Battle of Souls", Zero herself was consumed by Roland [[BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame when he defeated her in her own game.]]]]

* DeathByIrony: [[spoiler: For a Witch that consumes the person who lost against her in her "Battle of Souls", Zero herself was consumed by Roland [[BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame when he defeated her in her own game.]]]]

* ChildByRape: Implied. TheChurch rounded up little girls from orphanages, war refugees, abandoned "noble" children, or anywhere they could be found, and upon reaching child-bearing age, would be taken into rape chambers to try and maximize the number of witches that could be "harvested."

* HunterOfHisOwnKind: "Purified" witches hate and hunt "wild" witches with the highest possible priority, and will do anything they can to exterminate them. No amount of reasoning will change their minds... It took Roland delivering an overwhelming and undeniable defeat in battle to make this pattern stop.

* AdmiringTheAbomination: She '''worshipped''' the Red Moon, thinking it must be god because of the fact that mana comes from there.

[[folder:As a whole]]

One of the Zero's lieutenants.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Through drugs, massive indoctrination, torture, and repeated rape, "The Purified Witches" were not only completely unstable, but so tied up in the belief that The Church is righteousness incarnate that there was absolutely no way to reason with them. Isabella somehow broke free of this, but was powerless to do anything other than go along...
* ChildByRape: Implied. The Church rounded up little girls from orphanages, war refugees, abandoned "noble" children, or anywhere they could be found, and upon reaching child-bearing age, would be taken into rape chambers to try and maximize the number of witches that could be "harvested."

* KnightTemplar: Aside from Isabella, all "Purified" witches wholly believed The Church was righteousness incarnate, and "wild" witches were the spawn of demons. No amount of empirical evidence would convince them otherwise.

* TautologicalTemplar: Since The Church is the paragon of righteousness to them, any act The Church commands of them must in itself be righteous. The only way to convince them otherwise is to kill them.

* AxeCrazy: Whatever The Church did to her over her centuries' worth of life left her clearly unhinged...[[TooDumbToLive Then Mayne decided to torture her for "insolence."]]

*

Witches "raised" (read brainwashed, tortured, indoctrinated, and otherwise abused) by The Church.

! [[spoiler: Pope ]]Zero

* TheAssimilator: Every time she wins a "Battle of Souls," she consumes and gains everything that made her victim... human. She can then comb through that person's memories as if she lived them.

* OutOfContinues: [[spoiler: How she loses to Roland in the Battle of Souls.]]

! Isabella
The only one of the "Purified" to ever leave The Church.

* TrappedInVillainy: She didn't like The Church, but she could not see a better way... until she learned about Roland, but by then her "comrades" had already gone to full-out genocidal war.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: She's done, and is still willing to do, horrible, horrible things to win the Battle of Divine Will. Justified in that losing the battle means almost certain extinction for humanity.

* Isabella

* IFightForTheStrongerSide: The only moral compass she has is that she'll join with whoever has the better chance of winning the Battle of Divine Will. She doesn't care about the motives or methods of said group.
