History Characters / TheVampireDiariesUniverseTheSuperSquad

* Children are Innocent: In The Vampire Diaries episode "Gods and Monsters", Caroline, her surrogate mom says Lizzie and Josie shouldn't be involved in this world because they're only three.

* DoomMagnet: Having had multiple attempts on her life and having been attemtedly sacrificed by radical, over-zealous New Orleans witches even when her mother was still carrying her, targeted by her paternal grandmother Esther and her power sought after by her great aunt Dahlia, having been possessed by the Dark spirit, the Hollow when she was seven. Hope even considers herself a cosmic mistake aware of the circumstances concerning her existence. The repetitive losses and grief she's experienced, as well as her Mikaelson family's history are supposedly why she keeps people at arm's length.

* BoobsOfSteel: Hope is both physically the strongest of the heroes as well as being a very well-endowed young woman.

* MacGuffinSuperPerson: The fact that something like her could even exist kicks off the plot of the show, and drives much of the conflict seen in season one. People either want to kill/use her, or protect her at all costs.

* ActionGirl: Hope is always involved with the action whether it's going head to head with supernatural villains or monsters threatening the school or coming to the aid of lost, new students for the school.

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Hope tends to think what ''she'' considers right and wrong is the best option, and has no qualms attacking her friends if they try to stop her, not understanding why what she's doing could be wrong. [[spoiler:Alaric's memories reveal this is a trait she inherited from her father, as even as a child she had a rather warped perspective on what is right and wrong, and Alaric was trying to be a MoralityChain for her. It also revealed that he initially refused to even ''open'' the Salvatore School if Hope was going to attend after he had Emma get her a psych evaluation, the results noting that she is too much like her father and too dangerous as a result.]]
* BoobsOfSteel: Hope is both physically the strongest of the heroes as well as being a very well endowed young woman.

* DaddysGirl: Formerly. Her father adored her and she loved him dearly, despite the awful things he's done, and is shown to still be mourning him.

* EmoTeen: Hope is known for harboring feelings of contempt so intense after she feels betrayed she contemplates killing someone (i.e. Landon) and having emotional breakdowns given her lot in life, including her Mikaelson family's dysfunctional, tragic and violent past. She compares herself to Lizzie over it, acknowledging probably in the first time ever in any of the series, that this might be a matter of mental health.

* KungFuWizard: She's an extremely powerful witch and also very skilled in hand to hand combat.
* LikeParentUnlikeChild: There is an undeniable irony in Klaus being the established villain of the story and Hope being the heroine every time something bad happens. [[spoiler:{{Subverted|Trope}} later on. Alaric's memories reveal that Hope ''always'' had some of her father in her, and he had been trying to act as a MoralityChain to help her. After becoming the Tribrid though and turning off her humanity, she gladly admits to everyone, namely Alaric and Rebekah, that she ''is'' her father's daughter.]]

* PowerIncontinence: As a first born witch of her generation of the Mikaelson family line, Hope possesses immense magical power as a witch, like her Aunt Freya and her great-aunt Dahlia. She unfortunately runs into problems controlling it, usually in emotional moments.

* ProtagonistJourneyToVillain: She was told that she needed to become the Tribrid so she could finally kill Malivore, but kept refraining from doing so due to not wanting to lose her humanity. [[spoiler:After Malivore fully possessed Landon and began his takeover of Mystic Falls however, she made peace with becoming the Trybrid, but in doing so and [[HeroicSacrifice killing Landon]], she turned her humanity off and became a monster, putting Alaric into a near fatal coma, [[YankTheDogsChain ruining Ryan's life]] so he'd have no choice but to help find the Triad while trying to force him to be [[ThatManIsDead "Clarke"]] again, feeding on random civilians, and making it perfectly clear she has no compunctions ''killing'' her former friends if they don't leave her alone.]]

* RippleEffectProofMemory: Apparently. After Hope, Landon, and Alaric find Landon's biological mother, Seylah whom allows herself to be [[LaserGuidedAmnesia erased from the world's memory by diving into the dimension Malivore]] in order to protect Landon, it is later revealed that Hope somehow retained her memories of Landon's mother even after everyone else's memories of her were erased.

* TranshumanTreachery: [[spoiler:{{Play|ingWithATrope}}ed with. After becoming the Tribrid and turning off her humanity, she began decrying humans as being weak and pathetic, while fully embracing the idea she was an "Apex Predator". Ryan however [[TheReasonYouSuck calls her out]] on this, pointing out that she could have easily compelled him into helping her, but she instead went out of her way to try and [[ForcedIntoEvil ruin his life so he'd go back to being "Clarke",]] because some part of her ''knows'' what she's doing is wrong, and was hoping that if she could make Ryan see being human was weak, then she wouldn't have anymore doubt.]]

[[caption-width-right:350:''Growing up in the foster system, every time I got sent someplace new, I'd hope that this would be the right place. You know, like, uh, "click your heels three times," "no place like home" kind of stuff. Just somewhere I actually belonged. But it never was. You know, and you can only hold out hope for so long, and be hurt by so many people, before it starts to seems impossible to trust someone new.'']]

* ActionSurvivor: Despite being supernatural, Landon ''zero'' offensive abilities for powers including speed or strength, thus is often forced to run, rely on his friends to fight, or use his wits. The good news is that as a Phoenix, he has ResurrectiveImmortality so even if he dies he'll come back. Although since its unknown how many times he can do it, he often errs on the side of caution.

** He has a beautiful girlfriend in [[ActionGirl Hope Mikaelson]] but is constantly remind that as the Tri-brid she's The Hero and more powerful than him by a large margin. He spends most of the first season not knowing what supernatural he is and then after learning he's a "phoenix" its constantly pointed out his only real known power is ResurrectiveImmortality. Then when he finally starts to figure out other potential powers he loses them and left a vanilla human which puts notable strain on his relationship with Hope.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: He and Rafael were in the foster system together, have been through thick and thin, always having each others' backs. They consider each other brothers.

** Her first wish, that she made while leaving the room and out of anger, is that Hope had never started at the Salvatore School For The Young And Gifted, allowing Alaric to focus more on his daughters; however, because of this wish, the school is struggling financially. This reality comes to an end when Hope is found and urged to think about enrolling in the school.

* ContraltoOfDanger: She's a deep-voiced girl and a badass.
