* {{Humanshifting}}: [[spoiler: Uses a potion to disguise herself as Renard in "The Believer".]]

* CharacterDevelopment: Adalind started out as an uncaring sociopath with little regard for anyone, but after Diana was born, Adalind gained a softer and more protective side. When she was having her second child with Nick, she developed a new caring side to Nick and went from being his enemy to his lover while they raise their son together. This development was especially shown after she was forced to leave Nick to get to Diana and refusing to tell Bonaparte where Nick lived to protect him, till she was forced to tell him after she was being choked to death, but still remained loyal to him.

* {{Adorkable}}: Watch him decorating for Christmas and geeking out over the historical value of the Trailer and try to say it's not true.
** Heck, watching him giving flowers to Rosalee is this as well.
** Gushing over his favorite cuckoo clock.

* AntiVillain: Had an [[spoiler:[[AbusiveParents abusive mom]] [[UndyingLoyalty to whom she]] [[LoveMartyr was fiercely devoted]] and was a LoveMartyr to Renard. They actually used her as a pawn and were probably sleeping together, [[MoralEventHorizon with the mother encouraging her daughter to pursue Renard in order to advance in her own agendas]]]]. Add that to the fact that Grimms are usually very dangerous to all Wesen and that all the evil things she did were to get back at [[CycleOfRevenge Nick]], whose goodness she knew little about, [[spoiler: and, later, [[MistreatmentInducedBetrayal Renard]]]], and you have an AntiVillain, which still doesn't excuse casualties. However, it's hard to excuse [[spoiler: selling your unborn child to a [[NothingIsScarier still unspecified fate]] just so you can get your powers back. For a while, it seemed that her new MamaBear traits would pull her further into AntiVillain territory. However, [[BaitTheDog it was not to be.]] Whatever sympathy was garnered for her by the loss of her child was chucked out the window when she decided to rape Nick by deception and take away his powers in a bid to get her daughter back, which fails when the Royals capture her.]]

* DarkActionGirl: Sort of. With her Hexenbiest powers and enhanced strength, she was able to kill a huge thug and even fight Nick for a short while (but was still completely beaten). However, after being BroughtDownToNormal, she seemed to have no combat skills.

** Bitsie Tulloch (Juliet) actually posted a pic on Twitter showing how it takes one makeup lady holding the other up in order to reach his face while he's standing.

* {{Deal with the Devil}}: with Royals [[spoiler:after she becomes an Hexenbiest. Angry with Nick and their friends for their supposed betrayal, she helps the Royal to lure Nick's mother, Kelly Burkhardt, in a trap to kidnap the king's granddaughter Diana. But then the Royals kill Kelly and leave her head behind for Nick to find it, and when he and Juliette meet again, she claims that she didn't know Royals would have also killed Kelly, as if the latters' previous actions suggested that they would have just taken away Diana and nothing more.]]

* WithUsorAgainstUs: When she comes to know about Adalind[[spoiler:'s pregnancy]], she wants to kill her[[spoiler: and her baby]], and when Nick stops Juliette from doing it, she angrily claims that he's choosing Adalind over her, so it doesn't matter that he's bound to protect [[spoiler:his child]]: for her, Nick's actions mean only that he doesn't care about her anymore.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: She wanted to have a royal baby and exchange it for her powers. [[spoiler: She now has her powers, and had her baby taken away.]]

* BlackBestFriend

* HideYourPregnancy: Bree Turner was heavily pregnant during season two. So far, Rosalee has been mostly seen standing behind a desk or with the camera zoomed in on her from shoulders and up, with baggy clothes, well-chosen camera angles, and bags and other items to hide her stomach doing the rest.

* CowboyCop: In "Game Ogre". It also extends further into his history, as the ogre of the episode went after Hank because Hank 'lost' evidence in order to convict said ogre. Granted, the ogre was still a bad guy but...

-->'''Nick:''' (silent 'OhCrap')

* NightmareFace: [[spoiler: His Wesen side is certainly horrific.]]

* MsFanservice: spends quite a lot of time in the second half of the second season in sexy negligees or underwear

* GrayEyes: Fits with Nick being strong willed and something of a [[TheStoic stoic]].

* PapaWolf: Has vowed to protect his and Adalind's newborn son Kelly. The same applies to Adalind's daughter, Diana.

* TheAtoner: He has done some very "Big Bad Wolf" things in his past, isn't proud of them now, and seeks to be a better man than he was.

* HeroicNeutral/NeutralNoLonger: After his beating in "Of Mouse and Man", Monroe is no longer reluctant in helping Nick with his cases despite it conflicting with the status quo. As he says, "I'm not much of a status quo guy anyway."

* InformedAbility: Averted with him, whose day-job occupation as a clockmaker (which he is evidently very good at) comes up in the 8th episode of the 1st season when he is called upon to identify and provide information about an antique watch. In the next episode, he is called out to fix a clock. Unfortunately, it turns out to be a ploy to send a message about his work with Nick. He takes it about as well as you'd expect from a RetiredMonster--defiantly.

* TheNoseKnows: He has a supernaturally strong sense of smell. The pilot episode has him leaning out of his car to track someone's scene.

* RedEyesTakeWarning: Series 2 implies that this happens to Blutbaden who actively suppress their urge to Woge.
* RetiredMonster/[[VegetarianVampire Vegetarian Werewolf]]: Thanks to a "strict regimen of diet, drugs and pilates", he is less Big Bad Wolf and more ordinary suburban guy who just happens to mark his territory in his yard.

** As of "Big Feet," Hank's censor has been badly damaged after seeing Monroe with his GameFace on, and even more after watching [[spoiler: a Wildermann go from game face to human as he dies.]]

* SubmissiveBadass: He tries to avoid physical conflict as best he can. That doesn't take away the fact that he is strong enough to tear your arm clean off.

* FriendToAllLivingThings: She's a vet. Lampshaded by Rosalee that she and Nick are rare people who don't judge Wesen and still remain friends with them. Most importantly, they don't try to cut their heads off. However, Juliette has her limits. [[SubvertedTrope Ask the ogre...]] [[DomesticAbuser or Joe]].

* GreenEyes: Of the untrustworthy kind.
