History FanFic / TheSailorRainbowSeries

* BornLucky -- Lydia. See below.
* BritainIsOnlyLondon -- Mina suddenly becomes an expert on all things England since she lived there for a few years and the author took a trip there. But, of course, the only other landmark the girls visit is Stonehedge. (She also develops the odd tendency to throw the word "posh" around a lot... [[AuthorAppeal because the author likes the word.]])
* TheFairFolk -- Creatures from Irish mythology pop up occasionally as a MonsterOfTheWeek.
* FieryRedhead: Lydia
* FightingIrish: Lydia
* HeelFaceTurn -- Lydia convinces Malachite to help the senshi fight Beryl in the first story. [[spoiler: He still dies though.]]

* KidFromTheFuture -- Blossom, Fiore and Lydia's child, who is also Sailor Flora Rainbow.
* {{MacGuffin}} -- The Rainbow Coins, which appear so that Lydia has something to collect and can earn back her [[FrillyUpgrade Super and Eternal forms]], which she lost after the [[MineralMacGuffin Rainbow Crystals]] were combined to form the [[PowerCrystal Silver Crystal]].
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands -- Most SM [=OCs=] have a repertoire of special attacks that stays within the single digits. Lydia, due to having a power for almost every conceivable situation possible, has around ''40'' separate attacks by the time the 5th story starts. Some notable examples include the "Rainbow Color Slide", the "Rainbow Shamrock Rope", the "Rainbow Meshed Net", and the "Rainbow Green Glider".
* {{Oireland}} -- Lydia is a proud citizen of the country. She lives on a farm, drinks like a fish (despite being underaged), has a love for the color green, shamrock jewelry, and lucky charms, and her dialogue is written in a thick Irish accent (when the author is not being lazy). In the HP crossovers, she hooks up with Seamus Finnigan, the lone Irish student character, who also becomes incredibly Oiresh to match.
* ParentalAbandonment -- Lydia lives with a family friend named Madame Indigo due to her parents being dead. [[spoiler: When the HP crossovers start, we learn that her parents are not dead, but imprisoned in Azkaban on the false charge of being accomplices to Sirius Black (they've just been good friends with him since their school days) thanks to Lucius Malfoy planting fake evidence and bribing Cornelius Fudge.]]
* PintsizedPowerhouse: Lydia
* PsychicDreamsForEveryone

* SailorEarth

The series is notable for featuring one of the few well-developed SailorEarth s in the fandom. On the other hand, it is also known for plagiarizing the dialogue from the show and movies it is based on, its lack of research on other cultures, and Lydia's {{Mary Sue}}ish tendencies. Though, to the author's credit, the stories do improve as the series goes on.

* DidNotDoTheResearch -- In the earlier stories, the author's lack of knowledge about other cultures, especially Ireland, occationally borders on being racist. In the series, modern Irish society is divided into 2 classes: the upper class, which lives on large estates and have servants ala the 1800s, and the working class, who all live on farms and spend all of their free time at a bar either getting drunk or getting into fist fights. Lydia has also never heard of hot chocolate. Also, the aforementioned stuff on London and the fact that the only meal the SM characters are ever shown eating is ramen noodles.

* DracoInLeatherPants -- Draco, appropriately enough.

* {{Shipping}} -- Fiore/Lydia, Seamus/Lydia, Harry/Serena, Draco/Raye, Lucky/Professor [=MacGonagall=]

* TsundereSue -- Being Oireish and having red hair, Lydia is known for her easily provoked temper, unless she's around Fiore. (She gets it from her mother, who was [[spoiler: Lily's best friend in school and her personal bodyguard. Since she didn't have a problem with beating up Slytherin girls and abusing her brother's powers as Head Boy to get them in trouble.]]) But that doesn't stop the fact that just wearing a "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" shirt will cause a crowd of boys to gather around her, hoping for a kiss. See the rest of this list for more of her {{Mary Sue}}ish qualities.
** She is also a BlackHoleSue (see above), though this is toned down in the latter stories.

* {{MacGuffin}} -- The Rainbow Coins, which appear so that Lydia has something to collect and can earn back her [[FrillsOfJustice Super and Eternal forms]], which she lost after the [[MineralMacGuffin Rainbow Crystals]] were combined to form the [[PowerCrystal Silver Crystal]].

* BritainIsOnlyLondon -- Mina suddenly becomes an expert on all things England since she lived there for a few years and the author took a trip there. But, of course, the only other landmark the girls visit is Stonehedge. (She also develops the odd tendency to throw the word "posh" around a lot... [[FanFicChopSuey because the author likes the word.]])

* CharacterDerailment -- Mina immediately hates Lydia when she finds out that she has never heard of Sailor V and acts like a bitch towards her for the first few stories. (Unless Lydia does something awesome, then she'll admire her or cheer her on like everyone else.)

* WallBanger -- The entire [=MacGreggor=] clan and Lydia's cat, Lucky, are known for their ''incredible'' amount of luck. So much so that it borders on being a DeusExMachina at times. Want some examples? When Lydia saves someone, she automatically gives them a week of good luck. However, if she beats someone up, they get 13 days of bad luck. (This happens to Rita Skeeter, causing her hair to fall out and forcing her to delay sending her article to the ''Daily Prophet''. When she goes to St. Mungo's for help, she finds out that nothing works... and that none of the healers, except for [[spoiler: Lydia's mother]], know how to cure luck curses.) It also allows her to win contests and [[InstantExpert pick up skills immediately, including magic, without any practice.]] Lydia's father [[spoiler: was the best seeker Ireland has ever had because his luck helped him find and catch the snitch very quickly]]. In Lucky's case, his luck translates to him having thicker fur (allowing him to be more comfortable in Ireland's cold climate) and being a better hunter than his siblings, causing them to be [[YoureJustJealous jealous]] and ostracize him. When Darien is [[BrainwashedAndCrazy evil]], he won't attack Lydia, but will attack Serena without hesitation, despite the fact that she is much closer to him than Lydia is. Also, Lydia somehow manages to get drunk on ''butterbeer''.
** To be fair, I think it is technically possible to get drunk on butterbeer, though it would be rather like having hallucinations from eating nutmeg. Consider the amount of nutmeg used in cooking, and that you'd probably have to eat a whole nutmeg (about the size of a small pecan in-shell) to notice any hallucinogenic effects.
*** You can get drunk on butterbeer. But it has a very low alcohol content, so you would have to drink a lot of it. Someone like Lydia, who assumingly is no stranger to the bottle, should be able to handle it.
** A bigger WallBanger would be Lydia gaining her Super and Eternal forms in the first fanfic, which is set in the FIRST season of Sailor Moon, when none of the other senshi have that ability.
