* HotBlooded: According to Miriam, Beatrice used to be "far quicker to anger" before she ran away five years ago.
-->'''Miriam:''' She looks so composed and calm now... It's like she's a totally different person.

''"I can't wait for the day... when I can see his eyes draped in agony."''

->''''That's when I realized that there ''was'' a way to make them pay. You didn't have to harm or kill anyone. You could just beat them at their own game. You could use the laws and rules ''they'' made against them.''''

->''"Naught can remain concealed."''

* StrawMisogynist: William was well known for being "a chauvinistic pig", in Aria's words. He desperately tried to have a son, but only got three daughters. It's safe to assume he would have kept trying if his wife hadn't died. He preferred to marry one of them to a rival house and have the husband lead House Frega rather than let her own daughter be in charge. This daughter, Laefe, isn't happy about it, obviously. William is depicted overall as a very nasty man that few people mourn.

* CrazyPrepared: She [[NearVillainVictory almost]] gets off scot-free because she prepared for the very unlikely scenario that ended up happening, and only gets caught thanks to a DeusExMachina. Beatrice used her demonic familiar, Marrunath, to murder her father. Marrunath is constantly hidden from everyone else thanks to the invisibility spell she casts on him every hour, so nobody even knows about his existence. Despite this, Tyrion manages to figure out through deduction and Celeste's Detect Magic spell (which can detect the usage of the invisibility spell) that Beatrice has a familiar. He has him testify, and finds out that demons can't lie. When it seems that it's going to be easy for Tyrion to prove his case, Beatrice steps in and has Marrunath confess to the crime. Then she asks him "Did I order you to murder my father?", to which he answers "No, you did not". Which is technically true - she just told him he ''could'' murder the victim, knowing that he ''would''. She argues that familiars have their own agency and she's not to blame for the murder, except her Blood Contract with Marrunath explains the concept that he can't kill any human without her express permission. Of course, the contract is not in evidence, so Tyrion would have normally lost had his dead mother not suddenly communicated with him and taught him how to issue a Divine Edict to get a copy of the contract - something that not even Beatrice could have possibly predicted. And keep in mind, the only reason Beatrice was even a suspect in this case was because [[SpannerInTheWorks an unpredictable third party accidentally framed her]]. So she avoided directly ordering Marrunath in preparation for the extremely unlikely scenario that Marrunath was called to testify.
