History Characters / WhoMadeMeAPrincess

* {{Nerf}}: Downplayed. The webtoon version of Lucas has his power levels notched down by a margin in contrast to the original novel counterpart so as to not seem that he doesn't solve things right away like the original novel did. That said, he is still a ''powerful'' magician like his main novel counterpart.

** Anthy meeting her father at age 5 derails [[spoiler: Claude's black magic spell that he cast on himself which would have eventually removed his memories and feelings of Diana - and Anthy by proxy. Furthermore, it's implied that Anthy's passing wish to know her mother forced Claude to remember Diana and broke the magic further. In contrast, original Anthy met Claude too late to break the spell.]]

* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Claude loses his memory after trying to heal Anthy from a combination magic overdose/black magic curse. [[spoiler: His memory loss is due to Anthy's magic reversing a black magic spell he cast on himself to forget Diana. It's the same spell that he cast on himself in the original Lovely Princess story.]]

* PetTheDog: The webtoon gives Jennette an extra pet the dog moment by making her request the reason why Anthy is allowed back in the palace. (In the novel, Anthy gets caught when she enters the palace to visit Lily)

* UnwittingPawn: Especially in the webtoons which play up her sweet, kind and naive nature who is taken advantage of by multiple plotters.

* ConflictingLoyalty: After Claude loses his memory, Felix is caught between his loyalty towards Claude and his support for Athanasia. He doesn't want to overtly oppose his Emperor and friend but he also doesn't want Anthy to be hurt. In the webtoon, he compromises by obeying Claude but doing it poorly.

* ImpliedLoveInterest: In the webtoon, Lily and Felix are often paired up, get some moments together and Anthy is a ShipperOnDeck. Their exact relationship isn't defined, leading to this trope.

* YourCheatingHeart: [[spoiler:Her betrayal served as a reminder to Claude to not to trust people easily. He became emotionally scarred due to her betrayal and played around with his harem, until Diana came into his life]]

* SpannerInTheWorks: The reincarnated Athanasia meeting her father at age 5 rather than 9 as the canonical InUniverse novel dictates derailed Duke Alpheus' plan to introduce Jennette to Claude as his biological daughter. The webtoon also shows that [[spoiler:this one meeting also derailed Anastacius' plan to ruin Claude and take the throne of the emperor from him. Though the fact that Claude loses his memory of her brought the plan back to motion, the reincarnated Athanasia's influence and familial bond with Claude is still there to delay that]].

* {{Bookworm}}: Anthy's intelligence isn't just due to being an adult, she is also very studious and likes learning. Lucas mentions that she studies all the time (taking after her father). Her love of books is such that Claude gifted her with her own private library.

* DeliberatelyCuteChild: The main crux of Plan C. Anthy notes that Claude likes when she's being aggressively cute and insolent rather than quiet and frightened so she plays it up.

* InstantExpert: After awakening her magic power, Anthy can cast difficult spells almost effortlessly. She does eventually need instruction but proves a quick learner (which is good since Lucas is terrible teacher).

* MoneyFetish: Athanasia loves gold, jewels and money. It's due to both Lee Jihye being extremely poor and Anthy hoarding jewels and gold in case she has to run away. Hilariously, one of the first spells she casts is summoning money.

* ReincarnateInAnotherWorld: Of course. [[spoiler: The webtoons go further and imply that Anthy might be a triple reincarnation - she's also the original Athanasia reborn.]]

* TimeMaster: Anthy's true magic power is related to [[spoiler: time. In particular, she can rewind time on a person. Lucas suspects that this may be how she transmigrated.]]

* {{Troll}}: Anthy is not above taking advantage of her young age to get away with trolling everyone around her. She feeds Claude sweets while pretending not to notice he hates them, treats Duke Alpheus as a dog and teases Felix at every opportunity.

* TheNotLoveInterest: Anthy might have love interests but they pale in comparison to her relationship with her father.

* RealMenHateSugar: Claude hates sugar but puts up with it during tea time because Anthy loves sweets. It's played for drama after he looses his memory because he can't understand why there's so many sweets and reacts poorly.

* AntiMentor: Lucas' teaching involves him describing spells with sound effects and expecting his pupils to understand. Anthy is probably the only person who can learn from him.

* SpannerInTheWorks: As much as she is an UnwittingPawn, Jeanette also serves as this. Her genuine friendship with Anthy derails people's plans even just a bit.

* {{Bookworm}}: Anthy's intelligence isn't just due to being an adult, she is also very studious and likes learning. Lucas mentions that she studies all the time (taking after her father). Her love of books is such that Claus gifted her with her own private library.

* {{Bishounen}}: He is so handsome that you'll momentarily forgot that it's the same guy ''who parents a 14-year old daughter.'' Even Athanasia thinks so.

* MoneyFetish: Athanasia loves gold, jewels and money. It's due to both Lee Jihye being extremely poor and hoarding jewels and gold in case she has to run away. Hilariously, one of the first spells she casts is summoning money.

* MayDecemberRomance: [[spoiler: By the time the novel ends, Athanasia is 18 years old (albeit mentally a few decades older) while Lucas is thousand of years older than her, which doesn't stop them from having a romance.]]
* MerlinAndNimue: [[spoiler: With Athanasia, he teaches magic and eventually has a relationship with her.]]

* ChildProdigy: Sociological Theory, Arlantian language, common Pascal tongue, ''just name it'' and she'll gladly show you how bright she is. And she is also a gifted magician. This is probably because she was reborn with an already-adult mind. It's also shown that Anthy is very studious and likes learning.

* OrphansOrdeal: Twice over. The original Athanasia had a MissingMom and a neglectful father who ignored and disowned her. Lee Jihye was also an orphan.

* TheUnfavorite: As the spare of the royal line. It's reflected in his [[MeaningfulName name]]: Claude is derived from claudicatio which is Latin for "limping"

* AmbitionIsEvil: It's implied that Penelope cheated on Claude with Anastacius because he was the spare and she was aiming to be Empress of Obelia

* TheAce: The only daughter of Emperor Claude de Alger Obelia and the sole heir to the throne of Obelia. A bright kid who manages to memorize Sociological Theory and speak Common Pascal Tongue. To add to that, many boys in the webtoon are smitten for her, she's a certified a beauty and she is also a talented and capable enough magician to shock Lucas with an offhanded display of magic. Athy speculates this is because she was reborn having an adult mind.

* ChildProdigy: Sociological Theory, Arlantian language, common Pascal tongue, ''just name it'' and she'll gladly show you how bright she is. And she is also a gifted magician. This is probably because she was reborn with an already-adult mind.

* MeaningfulName: Royals are named for immortality or resurrection. Athanasia is Greek for "immortal"

* ReincarnateInAnotherWorld: Of course. [[spoiler: The webtoons go further and imply that Athanasia might be a triple reincarnation - she's also the original Athanasia reborn.]]

* {{Troll}}: Athanasia is not above taking advantage of her young age to get away with trolling everyone around her. She feeds Claude sweets while pretending not to notice he hates them, treats Duke Alpheus as a dog and teases Felix at every opportunity.

** The tea he usually drinks. It's revealed that the Lippe Tea is actually Diana's favourite tea, according to Felix]].

* GreenEyedMonster: [[spoiler: Jennette is secretly jealous of Claude and Athanasia's close relationship. She wants to have that same familial relationship with the two of them.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: [[spoiler: Jennette wants a relationship with Claude and Athanasia but doesn't seem to notice how her desire affects others and gets jealous when other people spend time with them coming across as incredibly selfish. It's implied that this is partly due to an over-idealized vision of what family means as people who will always offer unconditional love and support. This is also contrasted with Athanasia who realizes that even familial love requires work.]]

* PetTheDog: The webtoon diverges from the novel by giving Jeannette more moments bonding and helping Athanasia. She helps hide Athanasia and asks Claude to accept Athanasia back.

* BloodFromTheMouth: [[spoiler: Happens to her twice and both times from magic overload.]]

* DreamingOfTimesGoneBy: Athanasia often dreams sequence of events showing a woman she dubs as "Fairy Lady" and an unknown man whenever Claude is around.[[spoiler:Unbeknownst to her, the unknown man os Claude and the woman is her now deceased mother, Diana. She only becomes slightly aware that the dreams are Claude's own memories during the time she's in a coma due to her mana running wild.]]

* MissingMom: Athanasia's mother, Diana,[[spoiler:died due to giving birth to her. Athy did see her in her dreams, it's just that ''she wasn't even aware it was her''... until she grows older and realizes that the dreams she saw are Claude's memories of his time with Diana]].

* OhCrap: Athanasia was aware that mentioning Diana in front of Claude was a BigNo but can't stop herself from indirectly doing so, and she panics appropriately. The most notable OhCrap moment she has is when [[spoiler:she takes a sip of the tea Claude is drinking and said the ''same exact words Diana used to describe the tea''. It even adds FuelToTheFire that the ''same tea'' is Diana's favourite.]]

* PrettyPrincessPowerhouse: Don't expect her to just sit around and do pretty things all day because she's a [[spoiler:competent magician herself and is just below Claude and Lucas in terms of her magical capabilities]]

* MoneyFetish: Athanasia loves gold, jewels and money. It's due to both being extremely poor in her past life and hoarding jewels and gold in case she has to run away. Hilariously, one of the first spells she casts is summoning money.

* OrphansOrdeal: Twice over. The original Athanasia had a MissingMom and a neglectful father who ignored and disowned her. Athanasia's modern life was also an orphan.

* BeautyIsBad: [[spoiler:She's committed many atrocities, but she's also noted as being a very beautiful woman]].

* EveryoneCanSeeIt: It is obvious to everyone - Lucas, the guards, the nobles, even the people, that Claude loved and doted on his daughter. About the only people that didn't notice was Claude and Athanasia.

* TheNotLoveInterest: Anthy might have love interests but they pale in comparison to to her relationship with her father.

* BigFancyCastle:[[spoiler: As the story progresses, Athanasia manages to get her well-deserved castle after Claude orders her to live in the Emerald Palace]]

* PowerCopying: [[spoiler: It's implied that the spells Athanasia casts are from copying Lucas' magic. Teleportation, illusion, summoning money are all spells he cast on her.]]

* LaserGuidedKarma: Claude's original fate. [[spoiler: He ends up cursed by black magic due to spending too much time with Jeannette. The whole thing was a plot by Anasticus who retakes the throne.]]

* TheAce: The only daughter of Emperor Claude de Alger Obelia and the sole heir to the throne of Obelia. A bright kid who manages to memorize Sociological Theory and speak Common Pascal Tongue. To add to that, many boys in the webtoon are smitten for her, she's a certified a beauty and she is also a talented and capable magician. Athy speculates this is because she was reborn having an adult mind.

* GenerationXerox: Depending on the situtaion, Athanasia look like exactly like her mother and father. She also takes after her father in magical ability, intellect, and occasionally temperament.

* DrinkOrder: Lippe Tea which she introduced to Claude.

* GenerationXerox: In the webtoon, Athanasia is supposed to look like her mother though that's an InformedAbility. She takes after her father in magical ability, intellect, looks and occasionally temperament. Notably in the scene where she calls out her father and is truly angry - she looks eerily like him.

* PowerCopying: It's implied that the spells Athanasia casts are from copying Lucas' magic. Teleportation, illusion, summoning money are all spells he cast on her.

* {{ReincarnateInAnotherWorld}}: Of course. [[spoiler: The webtoons go further and imply that Athanasia might be a triple reincarnation - she's also the original Athanasia reborn.]]

* ChildProdigy: Sociological Theory, Arlantian language, common Pascal tongue, ''just name it'' and she'll gladly show you how bright she is. And she is also a gifted magician. This is probably because she was reborn with an already-adult mind.

** Even more shocking to everyone is the fact that [[spoiler:he says this line after having memory loss and forgetting the moment in question that he's referring to, meaning he doesn't even mean it.]]

''' Warning''': Majority of the tropes here are spoilers from the completed webnovel. '''You have been warned'''.

The only daughter of the Emperor of the Obelia Empire, Claude, and his late unofficial consort, Diana. She is the first princess and the only heir to the throne of the Obelia Empire. Originally dying at her first life in her father's hands, a woman named Lee Jihye found herself reincarnated as the pitiful Athanasia. With the knowledge of what will happen to her, she tries to prevent herself from falling to her bad ending.

* SpoiledSweet: She's the beloved and favored daughter of the Emperor of Obelia who was gifted with the treasury, lives in the Emerald Palace, has her very own library and was even built with four rose gardens. Adding to that, she's kindhearted and humble. Rather than feel entitled to these gifts, Athy appreciates them wholeheartedly as she was desperately poor in her former life.

* DownerEnding: The ending of the original Athanasia's life in ''The Lovely Princess''. [[spoiler:Her mom died in childbirth, and her dad blames her for her mother's death. She is forced to live in a pitiful situation all her life in the Ruby Palace. Her dad didn't love her and, instead, loved her ''half-sibling''. And just when you thought she could at least be happy with Jennette as a friend, she is falsely accused of trying to poison her half-sister and died at the hands of her father at the young age of 18, who told her that he never saw her as his daughter. He didn't even ''mourn or show remorse'' after he was told that Athanasia was innocent.]] It's no wonder the new Athanasia is so desperate in making the latter's situation in her second life much happier.

* AwfulTruth: [[spoiler:Jennette is not Claude's daughter conceived through his fiancee, her mother. She is conceived by Claude's brother, Anastacius. Jennette didn't take the news well]].

* CharmPerson: [[spoiler:As a "Chimera", the black magic around her allows her to make people like her and works based on her subconcious will. This also explains why Claude warms up to her in the original novel]].
* MeaningfulAppearance: Possessing crystaline eyes in Obelia means that the person is a member of the royal family. [[spoiler:This is the reason why Ijekiel's father and everyone around her were fooled and thought that Jennette is Claude's daughter and he is horrified when he learned that Jennette is actually conceived by Anastacius, not Claude late in the novel. Additionally, her crystals eyes are actually residual magic leftover from her creation as a "Chimera" and when the residual magic is all taken away, her eyes are actually green instead of blue]].
* NaiveEverygirl: Really, she means well sometimes [[spoiler:but lacking a perspective on other things gives people around her a lot of problems]].
* NiceGirl: She in this because her kindness
* NotBloodSiblings: PlayedWith. [[spoiler:Jennette is indeed related to Athanasia and Claude... but by a technicality and accurately, she is Claude's ''niece'']].

* WalkingSpoiler: ''Big time''. It's hard to talk about her without discussing the fact that [[spoiler:Jennette isn't really related to Claude in the sense that they are father and daughter and also about the circumstances of her birth]].

* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He is often the ButtMonkey of the webtoon but he's one of the best knights in the Empire who have an undeniably known reputation being the Emperor's most trusted ally and the Princess' knight.
* DorkKnight: Felix is known for being the Emperor's most trusted ally and his friend whom he have known for such a long time, Claude even trusted him enough to protecting his beloved daughter. He also has a formidable reputation in helping Claude squash any rebellion, gaining him the title of being "The Red Blood Knight", but he is a very adorkable knight who is prone to Athanasia and Claude's teasings, much to their fun.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Again with Claude. His mother was Claude's caretaker and the two of them have been together for a long time. Felix is one of the few people, the other being Athanasia, who could discriminate his unreasonable actions or nag him at his nonchalant attitude.

* OlderThanTheyLook: He was mistaken as a young man by a few visiting young ladies in Athanasia's tea party and you wouldn't realize that he is Claude's age due to how young he looked either.

* VitriolicBestBuds: With Claude. He nags him and doesn't give a damn if he's the ruthless emperor of Obelia. It irritates Claude, but Felix did have a point with some of the things he said.

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Ijekiel fell for Athanasia but she didn't exactly reciprocate his love, believing that she isn't the right person for him. [[spoiler:Later, he felt that he doesn't deserve her because of what his father had done... but fortunately for him, in the extra's in the final book, Athanasia is implied to have reciprocate his love in one AlternateUniverse]].
** It was even pointed out by none other than Jennette in a very offending way, [[spoiler: she told him that he would never, ever be with Athanasia since she has Lucas by her side. Even going as far as telling him they were on the same boat, Ijekiel was none too please with her statement.]]
* {{Bishounen}}: ''Have you seen him?'' The illustrator truly pulled all the stops to make many of the characters to look really beautiful in the Manhwa.
* CoolBigBro: Is genuinely kind and patient to Jennette like a brother would.

* TheDreaded: [[spoiler:Just mentioning his name brought enough fear from the other characters. Ijekiel's father is horrified to know about who Jennette's father actually was late in the novel.]].

Claude's former fiancèe and Jennette's MissingMom who died due to childbirth like Diana.

* AlphaBitch: Is a BitchInSheepsClothing and ambitious to boot.
* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Really, not many but Jennette and her family missed her. With what she did to Claude, fans are extremely relieved that she's already dead]].
* BeautyIsBad: [[spoiler:The atrocities she committed can't even be counted on hands alone]].

* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She did fell for the TheStoic Claude and managed to conceive him a heir at the cost of her life.
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: [[spoiler:The novel reveals that she had this relationship with Claude as she helped him to slowly heal from Penelope's actions on him... which makes her death even more painful for Claude to bear]].
* HotConsort: She is often depicted as being ''"a beauty that you couldn't take your eyes off''' in the webtoon. Lily, Felix and, even Claude subtly remarked on how beautiful she is.
* MissingMom: She died [[spoiler:after giving birth to Athanasia]]. Averted in another timeline, [[spoiler: when Lucas jumps through other universes. He encountered Claude desperately begging Diana not to pick Athanasia, he then resorted in eating Athanasia's magic while still in Diana's womb. The extra implied that Diana lived in that universe]]
* NeverSayThatAgain: Athanasia knew and was aware that mentioning or asking about Diana has been a forbidden subject to both of them. It doesn't stop her from mentioning it unconciously.
** She did, finally, decided to ask about Diana and all Claude answered was he never remembered her, but she knew that he is lying, so she dropped it.
* NiceGirl: Diana appears rarely in the webtoon, but that doesn't stop fans to adore her personality. [[spoiler: She did tame Claude and is justified in his feelings how much important her role is in his life. Her selflessness knows no bound and even risked her life giving birth to Athanasia rather than picking a peaceful life with Claude. Lily looked up to her, and frequently showers Diana with praises with Felix whenever she's brought up. Even with Claude's {{Jerkass}} attitude, she understood the meaning beneath his harsh words and believe that Claude would take care of their only daughter.]] It's no wonder why fans also likes her too.
* PlotTriggeringDeath: [[spoiler: Her death is the reason why Claude neglected and left Athanasia in the hands of the maids in the Ruby Palace and was forced to use black magic just to forget the pain he felt losing Diana]].

* UnkemptBeauty: No wonder Athanasia is so beautiful. She may have messy hair but there's no denying that Diana is drop dead ''gorgeous''.

* ActOfTrueLove: She started having a resentment and fear for Claude in the early parts of the story. But as time goes, she grows to love him as her father.
-->'''Athanasia''': ''Even if Claude no longer sees me as his daughter because of Jenette''
--> ''Claude was the first father I've ever have and I've love every moment of it...''
--> ''This is the only time I can say this so truthfully.''
* AffectionateNickname: She is called by her nickname, "Athy".
* AngelicBeauty: Ijekiel even named her "Angel".
* BecomingTheMask: Originally planning to act as a DaddysGirl to survive, she ends up finding herself to care for Claude as a father and became a full-fledged DaddysGirl in time.

* BigFancyCastle:[[spoiler: As the story progresses, Athanasia did manage to get her well deserve castle after Claude ordered her to live in the Emerald Palace]]
* ChildProdigy: Sociological Theory, Arlantian language, common Pascal tongue, ''just name it and she'll gladly show you how bright she is.'' [[spoiler: And she is also a gifted magician]]
* CostumePorn: There is no appearance of Athanasia that includes her in a shabby clothes. Just look at her debutante ball dress.
* DaddysGirl: Her Plan C is to act cute and be Claude's most favored child just to survive her DoomedByCanon ending. She did become Claude's beloved daughter not until [[spoiler: he forgot about her and fans are heartbroken that Athanasia have to do everything again, ''back to square one'']]
* DreamingOfTimesGoneBy: Athanasia often dreams sequence of events showing a woman she dubbed as "Fairy Lady" and an unknown man whenever Claude is around.[[spoiler: She wasn't even aware that the unknown man was Claude and the woman she dubbed was her now deceased mother, Diana. She only got slightly aware that the dreams were Claude's own memories during the time she was in a coma due to her mana running wild.]]
* DudeMagnet: Ezekiel and Lucas harbor feelings for her. [[spoiler: Cabel and even Lucas' alternate self has a crush on Athanasia. ]]
* DownerEnding: The ending of original Athanasia's life in 'Lovely Princess'. [[spoiler: Her mom died due to childbirth, her dad blames her for her mother's death. She is forced to live in a pitiful situation all her life in the Ruby Palace. Her dad didn't love her and instead, he loves her ''half-sibling'' and just when you thought she could at least be happy, she is falsely accused of trying to poison her half-sister and died at the hands of her father at a young age of 18, who told her that he never saw her as his daughter. He didn't even ''mourned or show remorse'' after he was told that it wasn't original Athanasia's fault.]] It's no wonder the new Athanasia is so desperate in making the latter's situation in her second life much happier.

** Averted when she has her third pet [[spoiler: whom she named ''Nox'', even Lucas was shocked that she gave a better name]].
* HilarityEnsues: She knows how dangerous her father can be, but it doesn't stop her from plotting to hit Claude while he's sleeping after the boat incident between the two of them.
** She hit Lucas after he transported her at the Alpheus' residence ''in the middle of the sky.'' Her face shows that she isn't even slightly happy about it.
* InhumanlyBeautifulRace: Her father's insanely handsome, her mother is drop-dead gorgeous, don't question how she became that beautiful. Heck, even her evil uncle is quite a good-looker.
* MeaningfulAppearance: Possessing crystaline eyes in Obelia means that the person is a member of the royal family. [[spoiler: It also links to the ability of the royal family to use a special kind of magic.]]
* MissingMom: Athanasia's mother, Diana,[[spoiler: died due to giving birth to her. She did see her in her dreams, it's just that ''she wasn't even aware it was her''... until she grows older and realized that the dreams she saw are Claude's memories of his time with Diana]].
* MoralityPet: She serves this to both Claude and Lucas. [[spoiler: She is the only person holding them down to prevent them from doing violent things.]]
** In Lucas's case, [[spoiler: he cares about no one, except for Athanasia. If something bad did ever happen to her, it is implied that Lucas might end the world they are in with just a snap of his fingers. Even implying that you would do something bad to her puts him off ''really bad''.]]
** In Claude's case, [[spoiler: Athanasia's presence itself would greatly change his decisions, most notably during Jenette's verdict. He was originally planning to execute her but a ''mere glare'' from her makes him fastly change his verdict to Jenette. Athanasia even said in her monologue during that scene that Claude can't stand it if she ever harbors resentment to him.]]
* OhCrap: Athanasia had been aware that mentioning Diana in front of Claude is a BigNo but it doesn't stop herself indirectly doing so. The most notable OhCrap moment she has is when [[spoiler: She took a sip on the tea Claude is drinking and said the '''same exact words Diana described to the tea'''. It even adds FuelToTheFire that the ''same tea'' is Diana's favourite]]
* OlderThanTheyLook: Discussed by Lucas once and Athanasia thought that he figured out of her status as a reincarnated person which nearly served as a WhamLine for her.

* PowerIncontinence: Her magical reserves are just so massive that the leftovers are split to a holy beast she named Blackie lest she gets ''killed'' from it. [[spoiler:This stopped being a problem after season 1 since she absorbed Blackie]]. It's also hinted early that her magical reserves are the reason why [[spoiler:Diana passed away in childbirth because her body couldn't handle the strain]].
* PrettyPrincessPowerhouse: Don't expect her to just sit around and do pretty things all day because she's a [[spoiler: competent magician herself and is just below Claude and Lucas in terms of her magical capabilities]]
* SacrificialLamb: The original Athanasia was killed by her own father without even doing anything wrong, falsely accused of poisoning and for ''what''? '''Nothing'''. Even the reincarnated Athanasia thinks it's too cruel to kill her without a reason why.
* SpannerInTheWorks: The reincarnated Athanasia meeting her father at age 5 rather than 9 as the canonical InUniverse novel dictates derailed Duke Alpheus' plan to introduce Jenette to Claude as his biological daughter. The webtoon also shows that [[spoiler:this one meeting also derailed Anastacius' plan to ruin Claude and take the throne of the emperor from him. Though the fact that Claude loses his memory of her brought the plan back to motion, the reincarnated Athanasia's influence and familial bond with Claude is still there to delay that]].
* SpoiledSweet: She's the beloved and favored daughter of the Emperor of Obelia who was gifted with counted treasury, lives in the Emerald Palace, has her very own library and was even built with four rose gardens. ''Adding to that, she's kindhearted and humble.''

* WellDoneSonGuy: What the original Athanasia felt to Claude, who only looked at Jenette.

Claude is the current Emperor of the Obelia Empire and Athanasia's father. He is introduced as the one who killed the original Athanasia by his own hands.

* BerserkButton:
** Saying that his precious daughter should be married off for the sake of the empire triggers his PapaWolf tendencies.
** Saying something insulting to Athanasia is also a BigNo
** And early in the story, mentioning Diana will result in a DeathGlare.

* {{Blackmail}}: Kind of. He tried doing it to Diana, telling her that he won't love Athanasia, even going as far as telling her that he would erase any memories he have of her and if she wanted to, she can visit and watch Athanasia as a ghost and '''what did Diana do?''' [[spoiler: ''She smiled at him'', as Claude described in the novel]].
* BrilliantButLazy: He's usually shown sleeping, having tea with his daughter, or dumping paperwork to Felix but he is said to be a ruler who is much better than the former tyrant Emperor, his brother.
* TheComicallySerious: Even Athanasia acting cute to him won't change his expression.
* DrowningMySorrows: He always do this whenever Athanasia's birthday would come, which is also the anniversary of Diana's death. '''Ouch'''.
* TheDogBitesBack: Claude learned the hard way when Athanasia finally snapped and delivers him the same medicine he's been giving her since he lost his memories.
* DotingParent: Ordering that the chair Athanasia is sitting on his office should be soft? Getting pissed at the mere speculation of someone saying horrible things in front of Athanasia during her debutante ball? Gifting Athanasia with a private library and four rose gardens? Hiding the drawings Athanasia gave him and ''even cast a preservation magic?'' We get it, Claude. [[SarcasmMode You don't really love your daughter that much]].
* TheEmperor: He is ''literally'' the Emperor of Obelia.
* FirstLove: Penelope was his first love and fiancèe. [[spoiler: Well, not until she decides to screw with him and cheats on him with ''his own brother'']]
* GoodParents: Despite being a DisappearedDad for the first five years of Athanasia's life, he did raise her pretty well.
* HeCleansUpNicely: Not that he's ugly, he's ''far'' from ugly. It's just that Claude usually dresses so casually whenever Athanasia saw him. [[{{Bishounen}} So when he bothers to dress up nice and fancy for the Debutante]]...
* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: To Diana and Athanasia.
** In Diana's case, [[spoiler: it was revealed that he slightly blames Athanasia for her death and that he originally planned on killing her, but every attempts gets thwarted for the fact that Athanasia is almost the carbon copy of Diana. He can't bring himself to killing her and is torn by the mere fact that Athanasia is the only gift Diana gave him.]]
** Meanwhile, in Athanasia's case. [[spoiler:he doesn't want history to repeat itself. Losing Diana was already painful for him and if Athanasia left him, he might die out of grief. It is notably shown in the novels and later, the webtoon, when Athanasia ran away from home. She teleported herself temporarily to check on him and found a very distressed, pale and thin Claude after her initial disappearance.]]
* MaternalDeathBlameTheChild: Claude slightly blames Athanasia for Diana's death.
* MementoMacguffin: A lot of it, actually.
** Athanasia wished her advance birthday gift from Claude. [[spoiler: She simply wanted a family portrait with the two of them like the other royal portraits, it was her final wish before Claude got a memory loss]].
** His daughter's drawings, even going as far as ''casting a preservation magic'' on it. The dumbfounded look he has when he and Felix found it was utterly hilarious.
** And the last one and a certified {{Tearjerker}} was the tea he usually drinks. [[spoiler: It was then revealed that the Lippe Tea is actually Diana's favourite tea, according to Felix]].
* OlderThanTheyLook: Although Claude's real age isn't revealed, it's speculated that he is in his 30s, but he looks like he is in his early 20s. It is later noted that those with so much magical energy and talent usually live longer than most people and aged slowly, so this is justified.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: He is known for being ruthless and cruel who have murdered his brother to forcefully get the throne and squash any rebellion impending to happen but he leaves everyone ''astounded'' after he complemented his daughter's appearance after their dance.

** Even more hilarious is the fact that he even doesn't believe it himself [[spoiler: after having memory loss and forgetting all the things he have done for 9 years, including his memories with his daughter]].
* OverprotectiveDad: Expressionless as he may seem, Claude doesn't like it if some ''pests'' are hovering around Athanasia. Just ask Ezekiel for that. [[spoiler:In the final book at the novel, he nearly attempted murder on Lucas because of how much he liked his daughter but came to approve of him when Lucas decided to bring ''a baby dragon as a new pet for Athanasia'']].
* ParentsAsPeople: Claude is too grief-stricken by Diana's death to properly care for Athanasia and neglected her for the first 5 years (9 in the original "Lovely Princess" novel) and even in the current universe, he spent his time mourning for her instead of celebrating Athanasia's birthday.

* PapaWolf: Whatever you plan to do, '''don't harm Athanasia'''. It doesn't matter if it's a person or an animal, or even physically or verbally, Claude will ''hunt you'' and probably ''cut off your tongue, feet or hands'' and '''hang it on the gates'''
** In the novels, [[spoiler: a noble took an opportunity to gain his graces after seeing how Claude and Athanasia's bad relationship is judging by how she walked out of the party, insulting her manners to gain his trust, his attempt backfiring horribly]].

* ReplacementGoldfish: This is what Athanasia thought of what Diana's relationship to Claude was like after seeing Penelope's broken portrait on his room. [[spoiler: It's actually not true as Claude only kept Penelope's portrait as a reminder of what Penelope did to him (As the portrait itself had it's frames broken off). Although being his SecondLove, Claude loves Diana so much and his actions to her death are justification of how much he treasures her. ]]
* SecondLove: Although few hints about Claude and Diana's relationship is revealed, [[spoiler: All the readers can probably tell that Claude loves Diana so much. Sure, he acts like a {{Jerkass}} during her pregnancy to Athanasia but as revealed later in the story, the only reason he neglected Athanasia and tried to erase his memories of her late mother is because he slighty blamed her for Diana's death and adding to that, he simply can't accept Diana's death. Before her death, he tried to convince her in desperation to pick him and not the child, knowing that she will die if she continues her pregnancy but Diana chooses the latter]].

* {{Tsundere}}: A platonic example in the way he expresses his affection for Athanasia. This is played more darkly as, in her younger years, his affection for her is genuinely mixed with hatred because she brings back painful memories of Diana. As he warms up to Athanasia, though, it gets mostly played for laughs.

--> '''Lucas''': [[spoiler: ''The Black Tower Magician have always been handsome!'']]
* BettyAndVeronica: The Betty to Ezekiel's Veronica. While Ezekiel gives off a more kind and princely atmosphere, Lucas displays a cold and manipulating personality that doesn't care about anyone except Athanasia.
* {{Bishounen}}: ''Oh yes'', the illustrator really likes drawing the characters here absolutely beautiful, and Lucas is no exception to this treatment.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Lucas may act nice and friendly if the formality calls for it. But Athanasia and anyone who knew of him are aware that he's more than nice and friendly.
* BrickJoke: [[spoiler:In one of the extra's in the final book of the novel, Lucas asked what Athanasia would like for a gift and she suggest "Maybe a dragon" jokingly. Days after he asked that, ''Lucas actually caught a baby dragon for her as a pet'']].
* BrilliantButLazy: As a result of [[spoiler:living a long life]], Lucas is a very competent magician that is even greater than Athanasia and Claude combined, and is even par or greater than Ezekiel and Athanasia when it comes to intellectual knowledge, but he would rather spend his entire time messing or teasing Athanasia rather than giving all his time in some paperworks. [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud The only flaw he has is that he is very bad at teaching others magic, something that even Athanasia mentioned.]]

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: With Athanasia again. [[spoiler: Even Ezekiel knew he won't stand a chance since it is clear that Lucas is one step above him. He's been with Athanasia ever since they were children, have known her more than him and have been her friend ever since.]]
* CrazyJealousGuy: And he doesn't even realize it himself.

** After bringing her back from her meeting with Ezekiel, he look ''pissed'' and even questions why he is a bad mood.
** In the novels, [[spoiler: he burned her gloves after her visit in the Alpheus residence, saying 'it's already tainted'.]]
** Another again in the novel, [[spoiler: in the same scene, he told her she's his.]]
* GreenEyedEpiphany: Invoked after Athanasia and Ezekiel's meeting on the flower field. He even questioned ''why''.
--> '''Lucas''': ''Why am I such in a rotten mood?''
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His first appearance is this.
* MayDecemberRomance: [[spoiler: By the time the novel ended, Athanasia is 18 years old while Lucas is thousand years older than her.]]
* MysteriousPast: The only thing Lucas is known for is the fact that he became the Imperial Magician at a young age who introduces himself as a talented child magician who cured Athanasia of her ''incurable disease'', which is only Athanasia having too much magic in her body it nearly killed her. Later, it's revealed that he was actually [[spoiler: '''The Real Magician of the Black Tower''' who lived for thousands of years]].

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When he does something out of his usual self, it really bothers Athanasia.
* PutOnABus: He started his journey to find the World Tree to recover his magical reserves and left the Imperial Palace. But after he left, everything went downhill from there on.
* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: Lucas may be brilliant in magic but he's awfully bad in teaching it. Even Athanasia lampshaded it when he decided to teach her using sound effects.
* SecretKeeper: In the webtoon adaptation. [[spoiler:he is aware that Athanasia had been reincarnated all along with the implication that he also knew in the webnovel adaptation]].
* SingleTargetSexuality: [[spoiler: He only has his eyes for the sweet Princess Athanasia]].

* SpannerInTheWorks: The webtoon reveals that [[spoiler:Lucas taking a branch from the world tree caused some natural disasters to happen outside it's realm when the world tree tried to defend itself from Lucas, one of which is the landslide that killed Jenette's aunt who planned the FrameUp of princess Athanasia back in the original novel. Her death means that the reincarnated Athanasia won't be framed as a result]].
* SugarAndIcePersonality: If you're not Athanasia, don't even try to act like you're close with him. [[spoiler: Jenette found it in a hard way after getting too comfortable with Lucas because she's Athanasia's friend, he told her harshly that she shouldn't talk to him like how Athanasia does because she isn't Athanasia.]]
* TheBusCameBack: [[spoiler: Fans are '''absolutely happy''' after he came back from his trip to the World Tree.]]
* TheStoic: He looks bored all the time, and is either seen reading a book or doing his ''job'' as the Imperial Magician. If he did show emotions, it always involve Athanasia's ridiculous requests to him.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: He even overthrew the ''Lone, Grey Wolf'', Duke Jarvis for his appearance alone for the girls invited to Athanasia's tea party.
* {{Tsundere}}: A male example. He denied having feelings for Athanasia yet the readers fully knows he likes her. [[spoiler: Athanasia did manage to catch his feelings for her, but even she '''questioned''' if he really likes her or not]].
* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Athanasia. Most of the time that they are seen together ends up them [[BelligerentSexualTension bickering, snarking and taunting one another]], even going as far as sending another via teleportation in somebody else's house.[[spoiler: The novel's ending stays ambiguous whether they will, but an extra story, which features Lucas jumping into alternate universe, confirms that TheyDo and at one timeline, are HappilyMarried with BabiesEverAfter]]

[[folder: Jenette Margarita]]

* AwfulTruth: [[spoiler:Jenette is not Claude's daughter conceived through his fiancee, her mother. She is conceived by Claude's brother, Anastacius. Jenette didn't take the news well]].

* MeaningfulAppearance: Possessing crystaline eyes in Obelia means that the person is a member of the royal family. [[spoiler:This is the reason why Ezekiel's father and everyone around her were fooled and thought that Jenette is Claude's daughter and he is horrified when he learned that Jenette is actually conceived by Anastacius, not Claude late in the novel. Additionally, her crystals eyes are actually residual magic leftover from her creation as a "Chimera" and when the residual magic is all taken away, her eyes are actually green instead of blue]].

* NotBloodSiblings: PlayedWith. [[spoiler:Jenette is indeed related to Athanasia and Claude... but by a technicality and accurately, she is Claude's ''niece'']].

* ShelteredAristocrat: She is raised in a very sheltered way by the Alpheus family [[spoiler:so Ezekiel's father can make use of her relation with the royal family to gain a standing in the political scene]].
* WalkingSpoiler: ''Big time''. It's hard to talk about her without discussing the fact that [[spoiler:Jenette isn't really related to Claude in the sense that they are father and daughter and also about the circumstances of her birth]].

[[folder: Ezekiel Alpheus]]

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Ezekiel fell for Athanasia but she didn't exactly reciprocate his love, believing that she isn't the right person for him. [[spoiler:Later, he felt that he doesn't deserve her because of what his father had done... but fortunately for him, in the extra's in the final book, Athanasia is implied to have reciprocate his love in one AlternateUniverse]].
** It was even pointed out by none other than Jenette in a very offending way, [[spoiler: she told him that he would never, ever be with Athanasia since she has Lucas by her side. Even going as far as telling him they were on the same boat, Ezekiel was none too please with her statement.]]

* CoolBigBro: Is genuinely kind and patient to Jenette like a brother would.
* ForWantOfANail: Because Athanasia met him very early before he left for Arlanta, Ezekiel never came to love Jenette and fell for her instead.
* LoveInterest: In the original "The Lovely Princess" novel, he is the love interest of Jenette. In the current universe, while it's implied that Jenette does see him in a romantic light, his romantic interest is shifted to Athanasia due to ForWantOfANail effects in play.

* TheDreaded: [[spoiler:Just mentioning his name brought enough fear from the other characters. Ezekiel's father is horrified to know about who Jenette's father actually was late in the novel.]].
* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler:The Cain to Claude's Abel because he was envious of how much talented Claude was in magic and attempted to conceive Jenette artificially just to get back at him]].

* WalkingSpoiler: Yes, it's hard to discuss him without going into [[spoiler:his relationship with Claude and Penelope and his role in Jenette's birth]].

Claude's former fiancèe and Jenette's MissingMom who died due to childbirth like Diana.

* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Really, not many but Jenette and her family missed her. With what she did to Claude, fans are extremely relieved that she's already dead]].

* MissingMom: To Jenette, she died before the story begun.

* WalkingSpoiler: Talking about Penelope's history would include [[spoiler: Jenette's true heritage and her past with Anastacius and Claude]].

* StrongFamilyResemblance: With Anastacius, his older brother. They can even be mistaken as twins.
** And with the addition of Athanasia, she may look like Diana but when she's angry or she snapped, she looked exactly like Claude.
* WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises: His inital reaction after seeing his daughter cough up blood in front of him.
