* MasqueradeEnforcer: His main job with the ICW. Even his destruction of Dresden played into this, as he wiped out a good chunk of Grindlewald's top enforcers when he set the city on fire, and the statute was not endangered by this because sizable parts of Europe were already on fire at the time thanks to WWII.

* UnskilledButStrong: [[spoiler:The blessing of the Grail grants him incredible power, but no understanding of how to effectively use it. This allows Alexandra, who had spent four years coming into her power and developing a proper dueling style around it, to easily trounce him.]]

* KinslayingIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Indirectly murdered all but two of his siblings to consolidate his hold on the throne of Keter. When he personally slew his sister to stop her efforts to aid Osiris in supplanting him, he was cursed for it. Now he can never rule anything directly, for the moment he claims the throne, the nation in question is doomed.

* UnfitForGreatness: After [[spoiler:losing his position as Champion of Fate]], he is forced to conclude that had he not been a holder or prospective holder of that title throughout the Tournament preliminaries, he wouldn't have made it to the Tournament at all.

Added DiffLines:

* DemotedToExtra: After the Chamber of Secrets, he ends up being relegated to being a secondary threat compared to the Exchequer and the Army of Light at best. His ultimate defeat is almost incidental, and isn't even because of any direct opposition to his plans: [[spoiler:the Exchequer destroys his Horcuxes, and Alexandra kills him, because if he dies to someone who ''isn't'' TheChosenOne, then TheChosenOne loses access to the power of Fate.]]

* ProperlyParanoid: Trained herself to be able to recognize common potions that an enemy might illicitly dose one with by smell. This comes in handy when Cassiopeia Black treats her younger relatives to a meal, which is liberally dosed with a number of highly unpleasant prank potions.

Added DiffLines:

* EveryoneHasStandards: [[spoiler: While he may be loyal to the Light, he is nowhere near as fanatical and self-righteous as Ra and his Light fanatics. After the Fourth Task, he considers Ra a madman that should be sealed away forever for the good of the world - especially if Osiris is sealed away with him - and states that he'd ensure that anyone who tried to make an attack against the Dark while Venice was frozen and the Statute was at risk would be considered a dangerous fool and sent to Azkaban to prevent them from causing any further harm.]]

Added DiffLines:

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Outside of the most fanatical members of the Light, Ra is nearly hated by ''everyone'' for his arrogance and extremist views about the Light. [[spoiler: It gets to the point where after the Fourth Task, ''[[FakeUltimateHero Albus]] [[ObstructiveBureaucrat Dumbledore]]'' considers him a madman and thinks that the world would be better off if he were sealed away forever.]]
* TheCorrupter: [[spoiler: Alexandra's conversation with Merlin reveals that before Ra was born, there was only one Light Power - Innocence. After Ra murdered his father and supplanted the throne of Egypt, he banished Osiris and began ritually corrupting all the other Powers to become aligned with the Light, forcing Osiris to do the same to the five Powers Ra had not already corrupted, making a total of six Dark Powers.]]

----
* NeverMyFault: Blames Alexandra for the loss of privileges Flitwick strips from him for trying to murder a student.
* RevengeBeforeReason: Tries to murder an eleven-year-old for crimes her father allegedly committed a decade previously. Getting caught and punished is no deterrent for him.
* RuleOfThree: Tries to murder Alexandra three times. The third time ends with him getting killed by a troll.
* SinsOfTheFather: James Potter was allegedly responsible for the death of some of his family in the war, so he seeks revenge upon his daughter.


Added DiffLines:

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: Like Sirius Black in the original books, his reputation as a criminal expanded over the years until everyone was certain that he was an Inner Circle Death Eater who played a part in everything not blamed on Voldemort or Bellatrix Lestrange when the only provable crime to his name was a single act of betrayal[[spoiler:,which he didn't actually do.]]
* TheMole: [[spoiler:A failed double agent that nobody knew was trying to be a double agent.]]

[[folder: Peter Pettigrew]]
Last and least of the Marauders, he dropped off the map shortly after the end of the Voldemort war, only to turn up again a decade later as a mercenary in the service of the Shadow Blades vampire coven.
* AtLeastIAdmitIt: He isn't a good man, but unlike the other Marauders, he also doesn't lie about being a good man, to himself or anyone else.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Pettigrew serves neither Light nor Dark, only money. He works for vampires because they pay well and deal with him fairly.
* OnlySaneMan: While the other Marauders swore themselves to Dumbledore's crusade against the Dark wholeheartedly, Pettigrew concluded that [[LightIsNotGood Light is not necessarily good]], [[DarkIsNotEvil Dark is not necessarily evil]], and that the smart thing to do is to get out of the line of fire.
* WhiteSheep: Least evil of the Marauders.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Before him, there was no such thing as Light or Dark. Each of the Thirteen Powers was totally independent. But then a certain Champion of Innocence decided to start binding other Powers to his own as a power play against his brother, forcing his brother the Champion of Chaos to do the same to counter him, and the escalation never ceased. So ultimately, everything is Ra's fault.

* CurbStompBattle: Say what you will about his hypocrisy and sheer idiocy, but he's still an Archmage from the time of Ancient Egypt. [[spoiler: When the six Dark Champions plus Eleanora try to fight against him, he gives them a few moments to show off their abilities... and then summons Excalibur and uses a FlashStep to instantly decapitate Yegor Poliakov and Teleklos Arali, and nearly does the same to Lucrezia before Alexandra interferes - and even just blocking the blade destroys Fragarach.]]

* PeoplePuppets: During the fight against [[spoiler: Ra]], he's shown to be able to puppet the bodies of his enemies to fight against each other.

* WeHardlyKnewYe: [[spoiler: Among the Dark Champions, he has the least screen time, only appearing in a minor role during the fight against Ra before being decapitated by Excalibur.]]
