* DeathOfPersonality: His Proto form ends up dying during the mission to save Death.

Daughter of the [[HerosEvilPredecessor Supervillain]] Zebediah Killgrave AKA The [[Characters/DaredevilCentralRoguesGallery Purple Man]], Kara Killgrave's childhood was without incident. She grew up in a normal suburban setting with her mother Melanie. However when Kara turned thirteen, at the onset of puberty, her body completely turned into a shade of purple On seeing this Melanie begins to reveal to Kara the identity of her father, and the circumstances of her birth. The shock of her changing appearance and her mother's startling revelations were too much for Kara to cope with and she fled. Realizing her power, she impulsively kidnapped Northstar and made him take her to a deserted island where she intended for them to remain. Fortunately he managed to regain his mental control and delivered her to Alpha Flight's headquarters where she promptly escaped by using one of their members. Fearing the team intended to harm her, she used her powers again, this time on the whole group. She escaped, taking Madison Jeffries with her. On the run, they fell for a time into the clutches of the Auctioneer. When rescued by Alpha Flight, Heather Hudson recruited Kara as the first member of the newly created Beta Flight. She will be a member of Clint Barton's heroic version of the Thunderbolts in May 2022.

* DaddysGirl: Subverted. In a very twisted way, Zebediah adores his daughter, which his own sons will readily recognize, identifying Kara as her father's favourite. But Kara doesn't return this favoritism, see below.

* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Living with Melanie and Kara Killgrave and his sister in an Etobicoke high rise neighbourhood is this for her.

* ExtradimensionalShortcut: Able to create portals to other dimensions and parts of the world. Is also able to use this ability to swap places with her her twin, Goblyn.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[Spoiler: Kara accidentally ordering a girl to jump off a cliff once she got her powers results in Northstar having to blow his cover at an exhibition ski event. He uses his superspeed flight to save the girl, but is outed as Northstar, a mutant with superhuman speed powers. As a result, he eventually has to give back all his Olympic medals. This, in addition to her mind controlling him, may go some way towards explaining Northstar's cold interactions with Persuasion in Alpha Flight.]]

* TheBusCameBack: He hadn't appeared in 26 years when he was recruited by Jane Foster and Dr. Strange to their team of {{Combat Medic}}s.

* BigSisterInstinct: Has this dynamic with Pathway and Goblyn.

* HollywoodAutism: Kara Killgrave sees here and Goblyn's births through a MindMeld. Laura's anti-mutant parents were planning to have the visible different Goblyn killed in the womb and used her dimensional powers to save her. Kara claims this explains why she "withdrew completely" from the world. In subsequent appearances after being reunited with her sister, Laura is more responsive and verbal.
