1	* DesignatedHero: Mae in ''Surrender'', where she spends the whole book gleefully trying to steal Sin's birthright. [[spoiler:And succeeding.]]
2	* EsotericHappyEnding: [[spoiler:The magicians and the Goblin Market join together...except many if not all the magicians are still just as evil and will likely soon take down the Market from the inside.]]
3	* HoYay: Nick and Jamie - Mae even suspects Jamie has a crush on him.
4	* LesYay: Mae and Sin, oh so much. From Mae's obvious girl-crush to Sin's more subtle flirting. Can't forget Liannan twirling about there:
5	-->'''Mae''': What else do you want? Besides the obvious.
6	-->'''Liannan''': I want a kiss.
7	-->'''Mae''': A - a kiss?
8	-->'''Sin''': A kiss? I have a certain amount of expertise on the subject.
9	-->'''Mae''': No. You can have your kiss. I'll do it.
10	-->'''Liannan''': I'll keep you both in mind for later. But I don't believe I mentioned who I wanted the kiss from.
11	* ShipMates: Mostly this depends on which brother you'd prefer to see Mae with, but most commonly [[spoiler:Alan/Sin to Mae/Nick.]]
12	** And of course, [[spoiler: Nick/Sin or Nick/Jamie to Alan/Mae]]
13	* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Annabel, [[spoiler:pointlessly killed off literally one chapter after she becomes a more interesting character.]]
14	* TooBleakStoppedCaring: When exactly it sets in is up for debate, but odds are you'll get hit with it somewhere. Most likely [[spoiler:Annabel's death, combined with Helen getting away scot free, which serves no real purpose to the story.]]
15	* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic:
16	** [[spoiler:Seb]] talks a big game about still being a nice guy even after being revealed as a magician, but in practice he comes off as being just as bad, including not one but two scenes where he has no objection to his allies threatening to kill a little kid. It ultimately takes an action even the other magicians think is wrong to get him to put his money where his mouth is.
17	** Also, [[spoiler:Helen is supposed to be seen as a {{Worthy Opponent}} whose {{Heel Face Turn}} should be praised. Except there's that time when she pointlessly and heartlessly murdered Annabel, which makes her come off as a {{Karma Houdini}} instead.]]
18	* TheWoobie:
19	** Jamie in ''Lexicon'' has got to be in the running for Woobiest Woobie to Ever Woob. By the end of ''Covenant,'' [[spoiler:when he, in conjunction with Nick, proceeds to wipe the floor with some of the Obsidian Circle, he's a lot less vulnerable and a lot more grown-up]]...but he still needs a hug. '''Badly.'''
20	** Hell, Nick and Alan themselves fall into the Woobie category.....
