%%* ThreeAmigos: With Keegan and Tynan.

* AmbiguousDisorder: At a crossroads of human, mermish, and wizard behavior, with variable mental acuity and an unpredictable nature, many don't know what to make of Heliotrope.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Likes the feel of the ground on her bare feet, plus webbed toes makes flip-flops or socks difficult.

* BerserkButton: Do not ever call him a Dark Wizard because of his Patronus or his hair, and never make light of the Second Wizarding War. And never use the word Mudblood within earshot of him.

* AdultFear: How Dione lost her voice – in the split second she was out of sight of her parents, she managed to down a caustic cleaning potion that nearly killed her. Inspired by numerous real-life tragedies.

* AdjustingYourGlasses: He adjusts his glasses by their bridge a lot, particularly when he's nervous.

Caretaker of Hogwarts Castle. He’s a lion. No, seriously.

He is a prideful animagus who experimented with developing a technique to allow animagi to speak in their animal form. He technically succeeded but is now stuck in the form of a lion with no way to change back. Following six years of failed treatment at Saint Mungo’s he has come to Hogwarts in the hopes that transfiguration experts like Professor [=McGonagall=] may one day be able to return him to his human form.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: In family, his more scholarly traits aren't as lauded as the outdoorsy traits his family admires, subjects like Creatures or Herbology that Philo is bad with.

* ChubbyChaser: Likes larger women, part of the attraction to Drea (Obderedria). But terribly insecure about it. Best not to mention Drea. Or certain professors. Or an infamous incident in Charms involving a cushioning spell gone awry.
** Note that this isn't the only thing he likes about Drea, just that as this stage the relationship is PuppyLove. On a subconscious note, LikeParentLikeSpouse is somewhat at work here as some women in Philo's family are more full figured.
* {{Expy}}: His family has similarities to the Weasleys.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/avatar_708_1287935490_2232.png Pureblood and [[UsefulNotes/{{Scotland}} Scottish]] by birth, Tynan was born to one of the segments of the Macfusty clan - an ancient group of wizards who guard, care for and watch over the Herbridien Black dragons. His own tiny family calls Minuglay Island home. Missing an eye due to a dragon attack when he was young, Tynan is thick-accented, down to earth and very physical.

* BraveScot: Complete with [[{{OohMeAccentsSlipping}} sliding accent.]]
* ScarsAreForever: He lost his eye by being smashed in the face with the dragon's tail - crushing his eye and breaking most of his face and skull. Considering the extent of the original injury, just missing an eye was lucky - but the eye is covered by a massive scar.
* GrayEyes: Well...eye.
* PrecociousCrush: On Juliette Valliancourt. He's not alone.

* ObliviousToLove: Hasn't bit him in the arse...yet.

* HandicappedBadass / EyepatchOfPower: Has issues with depth perception due to missing an eye - but his muscular build and scarred face make him look much scarier than he might otherwise comes off as.
* CuteBruiser: Male version - very muscular for his age ''and'' used to fighting other strong men...who're considerably older than him. [[{{BadassFamily}} His family helped him out in this respect.]]
* DragonRider: His current goal in life - influenced by his elder brother Cameron, as this was Cameron's dream before he died.

Heliotrope [=LeJean=] is the resident part merperson...yes, you heard that right. Basically she looks like a human under the constant effects of Gillyweed with webbed digits, gills at her neck and freaky eyelids. As she was raised in a Scottish Loch in a merfolk clan she hasn't been too prepared for wizarding school (or other things humans take for granted) although she's slowly adapting. Current play by is Brooklynn Proulx.

* AmbiguousDisorder: At a crossroads of human, mermish, and wizard behavior, variable mental acuity and unpredictable nature, many know what not to make of Heliotrope.

* BookDumb: Helio does batter with hands on learning than strictly academic.
* DoesNotKnowHowToSayThanks

* FishOutOfWater: Figuratively and literally.
* FreeRangeChildren: Mother can’t meet her at the train station after school is out? No matter, Heliotrope will swim '''''several hundred miles around the UK continent''''' on her way to Loch Lomond!!

* HumanMomNonhumanDad: A witch and a merman.
* LiteralMinded: self explanatory.
* LonersAreFreaks: Pretty freakish enough being part-mermish, she often wonders off to swim.
* NoSocialSkills: In regards to wizarding/human social strata.
* PowerUpFood: Ever wonder what happens when a half selkie girl eats gillyweed? Also something of a GRatedDrug for her species.
* PressurePoint: Fights kelpies this way. Occasionally pushes some when petting animals.
* RaisedByNatives: Heliotrope does have a witch for a mother but she adopted the merpeople lifestyle too, while being something akin to an assimilated WildChild
* SarcasmBlind: About hand-in-hand with being literal minded.
* SenseFreak: As many human senses are dulled underwater…let's just say Heliotrope takes advantage of dry stimulations.
* SleepMask: Surprisingly NOT for the usual method to show class. She has translucent eyelids so she needs something to block her vision when sleeping the 'landdweller method.'
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: To round out the package of minimal human development.
* WhipItGood: Hand made whip made out of kelp. Used for catching individual fish. Works best when wet.

Shy but sweet, Obderedria or "Drea" as people call her was largely muggle raised by a single mother. She likes all kinds of food and has a very vivid imagination, leading to occasional incorrect or naive understandings of magic. Also, her hair inexplicably grows in a brown with green polka dots pattern. Current play by is Bianca Ryan.

* BigEater
* BizarreTasteInFood

* DisappearedDad: Dad was probably a wizard. And altered the memory of her mother. But Obderedria has no qualms for being raised by a single parent.
* TheDitherer
* ImprobableHairstyle / MulticoloredHair: It naturally grows green polkadots since a magical accident.
* ImaginaryFriend: Her fictional pen pal Beverly. [[spoiler:There's indication that Beverly may be a NotSoImaginaryFriend]]
* MeeknessIsWeakness
* [[MrImagination Miss Imagination]]: Frequently imagines magic to be much crazier than what it really is. Note many of her letters to Beverly or cartoonish doodling and adventure stories.
* ObsessedWithFood: One of her favorite aspects of Hogwarts are the meals, but she genuinely interested in learning to cook them.
* OralFixation: Sugar Quills + taking notes in class
* SanitySlippage: Ever since a criminal's botched Oblivatation after she was victim to a mugging, easily gets more confused.
* ShrinkingViolet
* SweetTooth: Being friends with the Flumes (of Honeydukes fame) helps stretch the candy budget.
* TwiceShy: With Philo, although her memory problems reset this to ObliviousToLove.

!!Casey O'Doherty
!!!Slytherin
Casey O'Doherty is the scion of a wealthy, pure-ish family of Irish loan sharks. Being incredibly rich, Casey has the best of everything, his own house elf of the manor's three servants and access to the family wand almost as legendary as the Deathstick. Being groomed as the next scion he's under much pressure to work past his many allergies and physical weaknesses to be one of the best spell-casters in the year. However he comes off as a jerk given his family's attitudes and his refusal to let anyone close...

There's more to the story as Casey is intersex. In his BigScrewedUpFamily his grandparents enforced a shift in personality from how Casey's muggle mother raised him as a girl. Casey is between male and female but is rendered male by wearing a special appearance changing amulet. His feminine side is represented in the alias of a Hufflepuff third year Hexmerelda 'Hexy' Claggin, at first a SecretIdentity for games of deception and more commonly a avatar of self expression as he comes to terms with a sense of identity.

Not that any other character knows this: chalk it up to TheyreCalledPersonalIssuesForAReason. Current play by(s) is WillPoulter and Quinn Shephard for Hexy.
----
* AmuletOfDependency: Literally with Casey's appearance changing amulet. It's by far the easiest method to look completely like a boy, instead of his naturally androgynous features, so before he lost it he rarely removed it. [[spoiler:Wearing it for years without taking it off, especially when growing up, may have been contributive to his poor health.]]
* BeneathTheMask / BecomingTheMask: Played with over the course of Casey's history of 'matching expectations' from his family and eventually how he is known at school, to the point that while Casey can develop other personas he's not sure who he should really be.
* BreakTheHaughty: Casey is getting bent to the point of snapping pretty soon.

* {{Determinator}}

* DoubleConsciousness: Casey/Hexy
* DualWielding / GunsAkimbo: Attempting this when Casey gets another wand.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: More like jerkish Slytherin is very protective of muggle mother after previous neglect.
* {{Fiction500}}: The O'Dohertys, Irish loan sharks, are one of the five wealthiest families in all of magical Europe. They are said to have more money lying around at home than what is in their sizable Gringotts vault, mainly set up in piles for bowling down the East Wing of the manor.

* GenderBlenderName / MeaningfulName: The gender neutral Casey and 'O'Doherty' which means 'hurtful'

* GoToAlias: Hexy
* HatesBeingTouched
* ImportantHaircut: On the day the grandparents enforced the shift in identity.

* LonelyRichKid: The house elf doesn't count, he's a servant.
* LostInCharacter: When immersed in the 'Hexy' persona.

* MultilayerFacade: Hexy is in a secret society. That means Casey is disguising himself as Hexy who disguises herself as her cat themed avatar Felinae.
* TheNapoleon: Casey's on the shorter side of the male population at school, even after casting a Stretching Jinx on himself one summer. However he's mostly angry because of his other allergies and handicaps instead of height, though it crops up sometimes.

** Being easily exhausted and having a lower immunity can be considered a LogicalWeakness from improper/imbalanced hormones from his intersex condition.

* RaisedAsTheOppositeGender: An odd case. The first picked for Casey was female (a more accurate pick from apparent phenotype physiology) but his grandparents began raising Casey as a male halfway through childhood.
* SecretIdentityIdentity: Crops up at times, especially after the LiteralSplitPersonality incident.
* [[spoiler:SuppressedMammaries]]: [[spoiler:In universe, Casey has to find another magical method to do this when his amulet is lost, so he can still pass as a male student.]]

* WeakButSkilled: Physically weak but watch out when it comes to certin inventiveness of martial magic from Casey.
* WhereDoesHeGetAllThoseWonderfulToys: Most of his magical devices are said to come from underworld contacts the family has with lengthy delays to avoid detection. In the case of the HandOfGlory an extra was fudged for Casey on the order the family commissioned for another criminal.
* WigDressAccent: Besides the body changes covered by the amulet, the Hexy disguise is completed with a wig and more casual clothes than what Casey normally wears (voice is more informed, as the RP is text only).
* WorkingThroughTheCold

!!Alvis Norling

A mildly eccentric Ravenclaw half-blood with an interest in the stars. He comes from a long line of craftsmen, which might explain his interest in designing magical objects, though not his dabbling in combing magic with Muggle technology. When he was six years old, he disappeared for several days only to turn up with his memories of the previous month completely wiped. This memory charm damaged his mind, leaving him vulnerable to the influence of others. In retaliation, his mind learned to defend itself with a sort of psuedo-Legillimency, which he has yet to understand.

* AdjustingYourGlasses: Type 3, by the bridge. He does it a lot, particularly when he's nervous.
* {{Adorkable}}: It's a Ravenclaw thing.

* CuddleBug: Much to the annoyance of certain classmates.
* DitzyGenius: Of the 'naive' variety, though his common sense can be called into question on occasion.
* EmbarrassingMiddleName: Balthazar.
* TheEmpath

* GoodWithNumbers
* HomeschooledKids: Pre-Hogwarts, by his muggle mother.

* ItemCrafting: The family trade on his magical side. His relatives make brooms, potions, spellbooks, and artfacts, while Alvis currently dabbles in a little of everything, to the point of forging basic amulets in the common room hearth.
* MindProbe: Though he doesn’t mean to do it. Usually.
* OddFriendship: With Casey, for given value of 'friendship.'
* NiceGuy
* ProtectiveCharm: Makes them as school projects and gifts.

* SilverHasMysticPowers: But it's also got a melting point that's hard to hit in the common room, so pewter will have to do.
* SmartPeopleWearGlasses
* TeenGenius

An aristocrat with albinisim, Ligeia as she prefers to be called is the youngest in a rather unusual family, what with a half brother more like an uncle and a father old enough to be her grandfather. She's a throwback to many styles, mostly Victorian, with plenty of unusual and macabre interests. Commonly seen about with a magical black parasol and her pet vulture mistakenly called Buzzard. Current play by is Nastya Kumarova.

* CollectorOfTheStrange: Her decor at home includes what could be argued the most benign things from Borgin and Burkes and several preserved body parts in jars. Purely academic!
* CreepyGood
* DarkIsNotEvil

* HeroicAlbino: Deliberately made to counteract the EvilAlbino trope (though still likes creepy things, see above).
* NightmareFetishist
* PerkyGoth
* SilkHidingSteel: Here's a hint, don't consider her a pushover (especially if you threaten to quit class).

* WomanInWhite: When in her all white outfits.

A recent addition to the tournament roster, the Salem Witches Institute of Magic is the oldest magic school in the United States.

* {{Eagleland}}: Mixed flavor
* ElaborateUniversityHigh

* BookWorm
* CannotSpitItOut
* CantHoldHisLiquor: He is a lightweight.

A transplanted American witch dropout and flying squirrel animagus. Dotty as she prefers to be called has been unscruplous all her life, leading to her expulsion/disapperence from Salem Witches Institute after the accidental death of one of her friends. Her kind of crime-to-survive-substance-abusing-ever-partying-idiotic-behavior is a very distinctive style of crazy. Current play by is Rachel Dashae.

* [[ChaoticStupid Chaotic]] StupidEvil

* StupidCrooks

* DoesNotLikeShoes : Goes barefoot most of the time, though often finds himself regretting it.
* DotingParent : To both Cyhirae and Georgiana, most of the time; but can fall into OverProtectiveDad sometimes, especially with [[{{DatingWhatDaddyHates}} Georgiana's boyfriends.]]
* EveryoneHatesMathematics : Except him - he loves it. Seems convinced long lectures in the middle of the night are the best way to teach it.
* HouseHusband : Was one even before his wife's death; after her death, went full blown into it to take care of the girls. He enjoys it, however, so frankly doesn't care if he might get looked down on for it.
* IntergenerationalFriendship : With Ignan Storm, which he's the younger party. Can overlap into ParentalSubstitute as well.

* MoralityPet : To Ignan Storm.

* NaiveNewcomer : Was new to Hogwarts as a teacher, and was boggled by the mess of changes that had occurred. He's getting used to it - but certainly isn't helping much with the cleanup.
* NeverGotToSayGoodBye : When his wife died suddenly, and when his mother left. Something of an angst-generator, though [[{{ThinkHappyThoughts}} he tries not to worry too much about it. ]]
* ObliviousToLove : Unless it's really, really overt; even then, he tends to try and ignore it once he actually clues in (which can take awhile).

* PapaWolf : Don't hurt his kids. Seriously.
* ParentalAbandonment : Suffered it; his mother had a FreakOut and fled overseas when he was 17, leaving him with his infant sister, and leading to...

* StepfordSmiler : Had elements of this; he smiles almost constantly due to a ThinkHappyThoughts coping mechanism. Can easy head into creepy.
* SternTeacher : Despite his nice nature, he hates having his classes disrupted; often runs his classes, even if they're with 12 year olds, like a college lecture course.

* StrokeTheBeard : A habit of his; doesn't make him look particularly wise, however.
* SweetTooth : Given the choice between sweet and anything else, he's going to go for the sugar.
* WhiteSheep : Not an extreme example, but the rest of his blood-related family is...not much like him, at all. Especially his mother.

* CrosswordPuzzle : Makes a note to always do them in the mornings.

* SeparatedByACommonLanguage: Rou was born in Wales but was raised by his American grandfather, as a result much of his manner of speaking has a blend of British and American dialects, leaning more towards American.

* ABoyAndHisX : Gets 'adopted' by a MagicCarpet. One that specifically can't fly, but it can do other things.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter : In family, his more scholarly traits aren't as lauded as the outdoorsy traits his family admires, subjects like Creatures or Herbology that Philo is bad with.
* BlackSheep : A reclusive Ravenclaw geek in a family of outdoorsy Hufflepuff types.
* ButtMonkey : Has odd or horrible things happen to him beyond his control.
* ChubbyChaser : Likes larger women, part of the attraction to Drea (Obderedria). But terribly insecure about it. Best not to mention Drea. Or certain professors. Or an infamous incident in Charms involving a cushioning spell gone awry.

* {{Expy}} : His family has similarities to the Weasleys.
* GadgeteerGenius : Of a sort, builds a magical camera out of a broken pair of omnioculars.

* PickyEater : Unsure of solely spinach pie when a vegetarian classmate is visiting and it takes hanging out with Drea to get him to like fruit.
* TwiceShy : With Drea. She's horribly shy to begin with and he has no clue how to express romance at his age (and his brother's love motto isn't helping).

* BrattyHalfPint : To the Professors and older students, anyhow.
* TheBully : Along with Keegan; Tynan participates to a lesser extent.

* OneOfTheBoys : Very much so, to the point where all of the boys think of her as one of them, rather than a girl.

* ThreeAmigos : With Keegan and Tynan.

* BraveScot : Complete with [[{{OohMeAccentsSlipping}} sliding accent.]]
* SeparatedByACommonLanguage : His Scots accent is often so thick with slang the English-born students get a little lost following him. Not to mention the European-born Professors.
* ScarsAreForever : He lost his eye by being smashed in the face with the dragon's tail - crushing his eye and breaking most of his face and skull. Considering the extent of the original injury, just missing an eye was lucky - but the eye is covered by a massive scar.
* GrayEyes : Well...eye.
* PrecociousCrush : On Juliette Valliancourt. He's not alone.
* BookDumb : He's got a lot of practical skills that come from his lifestyle at home...that don't help him at all at Hogwarts.
* ObliviousToLove : Hasn't bit him in the arse...yet.
* WouldntHitAGirl : Unless she hits first. Or she's [[{{OneOfTheBoys}} Mairead.]]
* HandicappedBadass / EyepatchOfPower : Has issues with depth perception due to missing an eye - but his muscular build and scarred face make him look much scarier than he might otherwise comes off as.
* CuteBruiser : Male version - very muscular for his age ''and'' used to fighting other strong men...who're considerably older than him. [[{{BadassFamily}} His family helped him out in this respect.]]
* DragonRider : His current goal in life - influenced by his elder brother Cameron, as this was Cameron's dream before he died.

* AmbiguousDisorder : At a crossroads of human, mermish, and wizard behavior, variable mental acuity and unpredictable nature, many know what not to make of Heliotrope.
* ApparentlyHumanMerfolk : This being Potterverse, Helio looks like she’s constantly under the effects of gillyweed. So she’s human, but with gills on her neck, webbed digits, and translucent eyelids.
* BookDumb : Helio does batter with hands on learning than strictly academic.

* DoesNotLikeShoes : Likes the feel of the ground on her bare feet, plus webbed toes makes flip-flops or socks difficult.
* EmotionlessGirl : Sad? Mad? Glad? She’s oblivious.
* FishOutOfWater : Figuratively and literally.
* FreeRangeChildren : Mother can’t meet her at the train station after school is out? No matter, Heliotrope will swim '''''several hundred miles around the UK continent''''' on her way to Loch Lomond!!
* HalfHumanHybrid : Half human, half mermish, as seen by grayish skin and gills. A biological anomaly in the wizarding world thus far, and actually not as integrated in merfolk society as believed.
* HumanMomNonhumanDad : A witch and a merman.
* LiteralMinded : self explanatory.
* LonersAreFreaks : Pretty freakish enough being part-mermish, she often wonders off to swim.
* NoSocialSkills : In regards to wizarding/human social strata.
* PowerUpFood : Ever wonder what happens when a half selkie girl eats gillyweed? Also something of a GRatedDrug for her species.
* PressurePoint : Fights kelpies this way. Occasionally pushes some when petting animals.
* RaisedByNatives : Heliotrope does have a witch for a mother but she adopted the merpeople lifestyle too, while being something akin to an assimilated WildChild
* SarcasmBlind : About hand-in-hand with being literal minded.
* SenseFreak : As many human senses are dulled underwater…let's just say Heliotrope takes advantage of dry stimulations.
* SleepMask : Surprisingly NOT for the usual method to show class. She has translucent eyelids so she needs something to block her vision when sleeping the 'landdweller method.'
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove : To round out the package of minimal human development.
* WhipItGood : Hand made whip made out of kelp. Used for catching individual fish. Works best when wet.
* WildHair : Never washed, only wet from swims, and hosts algae.

* CloudCuckoolandersMinder : Drea watches out for when Heliotrope doesn't get things.
* {{Dandere}} : Shy but very bubbly underneath.

* ImprobableHairstyle / MulticoloredHair : It naturally grows green polkadots since a magical accident.
* ImaginaryFriend : Her fictional pen pal Beverly. [[spoiler:There's indication that Beverly may be a NotSoImaginaryFriend]]

* [[MrImagination Miss Imagination]] : Frequently imagines magic to be much crazier than what it really is. Note many of her letters to Beverly or cartoonish doodling and adventure stories.
* ObsessedWithFood : One of her favorite aspects of Hogwarts are the meals, but she genuinely interested in learning to cook them.

* SanitySlippage : Ever since a criminal's botched Oblivatation after she was victim to a mugging, easily gets more confused.

* SweetTooth : Being friends with the Flumes (of Honeydukes fame) helps stretch the candy budget.
* TwiceShy : With Philo, although her memory problems reset this to ObliviousToLove.

* BeneathTheMask / BecomingTheMask : Played with over the course of Casey's history of 'matching expectations' from his family and eventually how he is known at school, to the point that while Casey can develop other personas he's not sure who he should really be.
* BreakTheHaughty : Casey is getting bent to the point of snapping pretty soon.
* CrazyPrepared : Living with a lot of bizarre medical allergies prompts Casey to have many backups, special artifacts and trained knowledge.

* DontYouDarePityMe : Never pity Casey. He discerns both genuine and insulting pity as 'phony' unless he's playing the handicapped card.
* DoubleConsciousness : Casey/Hexy
* DualWielding / GunsAkimbo : Attempting this when Casey gets another wand.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas : More like jerkish Slytherin is very protective of muggle mother after previous neglect.
* {{Fiction500}} : The O'Dohertys, Irish loan sharks, are one of the five wealthiest families in all of magical Europe. They are said to have more money lying around at home than what is in their sizable Gringotts vault, mainly set up in piles for bowling down the East Wing of the manor.
* FullyClothedNudity : Very uncomfortable being seen in any state of partial undress.
* GenderBlenderName / MeaningfulName : The gender neutral Casey and 'O'Doherty' which means 'hurtful'
* GlassCannon : Insanely powerful at casting spells but he has low stamina and resistance to everything.
* GuiltyPleasures : Dancing to club/pop/(w)rock music of all things, inspired by the first time Casey was significantly LostInCharacter as Hexy at a teen nightclub. Often retreats to a club themed version of the Room of Requirement to practice spells.
* GoToAlias : Hexy

* ImportantHaircut : On the day the grandparents enforced the shift in identity.
* LiteralSplitPersonality : During the 'Body Swap' event when many characters are swapped with each other, Casey's personality is split along his male and female identities. While both share some memories and a body of knowledge, they don't interact or recall each other until re-assimilated.
* LonelyRichKid : The house elf doesn't count, he's a servant.
* LostInCharacter : When immersed in the 'Hexy' persona.
* MasterActor : When he isn't being a total jerk, Casey can pull this off surprisingly well (Occlumency also helps) which adds to Hexy being a complete other persona.
* MultilayerFacade : Hexy is in a secret society. That means Casey is disguising himself as Hexy who disguises herself as her cat themed avatar Felinae.

* TheProudElite : While not incredibly handsome, Casey is very snooty and antisocial from his upbringing, until he forms certain close relationships.
* RaisedAsTheOppositeGender : An odd case. The first picked for Casey was female (a more accurate pick from apparent phenotype physiology) but his grandparents began raising Casey as a male halfway through childhood.
* SecretIdentityIdentity : Crops up at times, especially after the LiteralSplitPersonality incident.
* [[spoiler:SuppressedMammaries]] : [[spoiler:In universe, Casey has to find another magical method to do this when his amulet is lost, so he can still pass as a male student.]]
* UtilityBelt : Contains all of his magical possessions. Came out looking more like a skirt.
* WeakButSkilled : Physically weak but watch out when it comes to certin inventiveness of martial magic from Casey.
* WhereDoesHeGetAllThoseWonderfulToys : Most of his magical devices are said to come from underworld contacts the family has with lengthy delays to avoid detection. In the case of the HandOfGlory an extra was fudged for Casey on the order the family commissioned for another criminal.
* WigDressAccent : Besides the body changes covered by the amulet, the Hexy disguise is completed with a wig and more casual clothes than what Casey normally wears (voice is more informed, as the RP is text only).

* WrongGeneticSex : Intersex, both male and female, though his natural body without the amulet is more feminine.

* CollectorOfTheStrange : Her decor at home includes what could be argued the most benign things from Borgin and Burkes and several preserved body parts in jars. Purely academic!

* EmbarrassingFirstName : The P.E. stands for "Polly Esther." She has a sister named Polka-Dot and a father named Argyle.
* HeroicAlbino : Deliberately made to counteract the EvilAlbino trope (though still likes creepy things, see above).

* SilkHidingSteel : Here's a hint, don't consider her a pushover (especially if you threaten to quit class).
* TalkingToTheDead : Many of her best friends are ghosts (including ''Moaning Myrtle'')
* WomanInWhite : When in her all white outfits.

* {{Tomboy}} : Laney is a rough-and-tumble girl who prefers to [[{{OneOfTheBoys}} hang with the boys]].

* LeanAndMean : Laney is a card-carrying member of the [[{{IttyBittyTittyCommittee}} IBTC]], and she likes it that way. What she may lack in bust, she [[{{ShesGotLegs}} makes up for in legs]].

* SomeCallMeTim : Laney’s full name is Lorraine, but most of her acquaintances call her Laney.
* TheObstructiveLoveInterest : for the [[{{MayDecemberRomance}} slightly more mature]] Frank Pratt
* TheMasochismTango : a favorite game with Philomenes Kecklepenny
* SlapSlapKiss : with George Carter, Laney's go-to [[{{NewOldFlame}} rebound]].

* MamaBear : Don't hurt her kids.

* InLoveWithYourCarnage : Ignan and Azorma do this to ''each other.''

* Pettanko : In her [[http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a39/Armiece/azbio.png true form]]

* TheBaroness : Sexpot Variety.
* WomanScorned : Oh yes - having this happen to her three times snapped her, and technically, she thinks it happened again.
* SlapSlapKiss : With Ignan - not as, ah..cute as other examples.
* DestructoNookie : With - who else? - Ignan.
* FallenPrincess : Was thrown from her clan over a youthful transgression.
* ArrangedMarriage : Was a perfectly functional, if somewhat dull, one - until she cheated on him.

* AnimalMotif : Flying squirrel animagus. Behaves very squirrelly.
* BewareTheSillyOnes : She can be unpredictably chaotic at her most inebriated to needlessly aggressive when she isn't.

* IntoxicationEnsues : Often the explanation to some of Dotty's more [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy bone headed actions]].
* ItsAllAboutMe : Only in it for herself.

* LowerClassLout : A 'trailer trash' kind.
* MushroomSamba : Frequently after her favorite hallucinogenic drink.
* MyNaymeIs / InsistentTerminology : She will hate [[PaintingTheMedium hearing you say her nickname incorrectly as 'Dotti']] even if her full name suggests that.
* TheSlacker : Rare female example.
* TheStoner : Also rare female example
* StonersAreFunny : Most of her time her various intoxications make her escapades more silly and stupid. Withdrawal, on the other hand, can make her more dangerous.
* StreetSmart : Although graduated at the bottom of the class, but luckily for her Dotty is an InvincibleIncompetent.

* ThePigPen : Anytime she's not caring about her appearance.
* PsychoForHire : Not that she gets much work as her needling often makes her TheLoad.
* TheRuntAtTheEnd : Youngest of a brother and sister. [[TheGloriousWarOfSisterlyRivalry She was horrendous to her older sister]].
* ToadLicking : Her favorite drink, Blue Toad, is the liquid version of this. Comes complete with a slick cartoon blue Bufo Toad mascot.
* TrashOfTheTitans : Her hideouts invariably turn into this with all the junk she pilfers.
