* YouKnowImBlackRight: Downplayed, when talking to Misraaks during Season of Defiance, Mara hears his strict dogma that completely dismisses the Darkness as evil and tries to get him to see the value in a moderate stance between the two without outright pointing out how she and her entire species are half Darkness and half Light.

* OppositesAttract: Riven is by all accounts a paragon of the Ahamkara, a cunning, deceitful, manipulative trickster who must be bargained with an excess of caution to avoid disaster. [[spoiler:Her mate Taranis, in contrast, was a WhiteSheep, perfectly content to grant wishes at face value despite the minimal benefits to himself.]]

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: Well, though she’s more BlueAndOrangeMorality rather than outright “Evil”, Riven fits here.
** It’s a bit of a {{Justified}} case in that, being an Ahamkara, a species noted as being intrinsically selfish and self-serving, it makes sense that Riven would be stymied by altruistic actions and desires. However, she ''does'' show that she’s intrigued by altruism. Her mate, Taranis, is the most prevalent example. Taranis, unlike the rest of their kind, was a BenevolentGenie who fulfilled wishes as they were asked of him, no strings attached. Later, after his mate Riven is Taken, he sacrifices himself to scatter their eggs across the Ley Lines. While Riven didn’t understand his kindness, she admits that it was what attracted her to him and helped fuel her love for him.
** Similarly, Riven is confused by the Sov siblings’ CharacterDevelopment. Mara, once a [[TheStoic stoic]] and cunning [[TheChessmaster Chessmaster]] who kept to herself, was now becoming open with her emotions and placing her trust in others. Crow, formerly Uldren, a man who always pushed as far as he could for his sister’s approval, was now willing to sacrifice himself for his new friends. Riven, for all her life, had been at peace with her nature as an Ahamkara, which provided for her needs and kept her alive, so it makes sense that she’d be confused by the Sov siblings growing beyond their original selves for “the greater good”. Riven admits that their newfound altruism is a trait she wouldn’t subscribe to, believing that it makes one vulnerable. That said, she gives a few words on how altruism can be an advantage for “Good” over “Evil”. Namely that, someone who puts others over self-preservation can’t be predicted, and if they can’t be predicted, how can they be countered?

* WorthyOpponent: In her last words, Riven admits to Mara that she always saw her as this, for her wishes, her cunning, and her push to fulfill her desires. She even says that Mara could be a good guide for her soon-to-be-born children, and gives her a sincere farewell.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Riven is deceitful and crafty, as many Ahamkara are, and is a spiteful and sadistic being even when she's uncorrupted by Taken magic- with her freely admitting, in her own words, to finding "[...] joy [in] turning desire to woe"- but found love in [[OppositesAttract the honest and compassionate Taranis]], to the point of genuinely mourning her separation from him and his death shortly after she was Taken.
