* EvilIsPetty: ''Extremely''. [[https://www.neorice.com/hoh_3795 This page]] reveals just how she's willing to go spite someone by [[spoiler:burning down her own business in order to take down the spirit that had been using it for its own ends]]. Her MotiveRant also explains that instead of feeling loss from that act, it actually felt ''euphoric'' to her.



* HatesTheirParent: Evyle does ''not'' like her father, at one point referring to him as "that murderous bastard who happened to conceive me." It's likely one of the reasons why [[spoiler:she legally changed her name, to distance herself from him]].



* MotiveRant: [[https://www.neorice.com/hoh_3796 Page 3796 onwards]] is basically explaining to [[spoiler:Vonesperda]] that while she was initially happy enough to quietly work for the corrupt executives in exchange for money and the opportunity to still insult them, the actions of [[spoiler:Vonesperda]] have made that impossible. However, after meeting Burk and seeing how freely he lives his life, she realizes that she finds it much more fun to spite her enemies regardless of the cost, saying that even [[spoiler:burning her business to the ground]] was utterly worth it just to get back at someone.



* VillainRespect: Instantly develops this towards Burk, of all people, once she meets him in person. Realizing that he's chosen to be a hero just for the heck of it, while she's decided to be a villain for similarily immature reasons, makes her instantly understanding of him. Rather than attempting to uncover some HiddenDepths underneath some supposed fascade of his, like Nightshade did, she takes Burk, in all his pantsless ridiculousness, at face value and [[spoiler: strikes up an allegiance with him to get back at the Eddstadt Executives.]]

* UnskilledButStrong: Held can be a surprising threat in a fight, even before she was 10 years old, as she can combine her notably fast reflexes with magically enhanced speed to land lethal blows. However, beyond some swordfighting lessons from her father, she has little to no training in using her magic, and despite [[spoiler:managing to kill a soldier that was seeking to assassinate her and her father]], she has little experience in real fights. Her father sends her away to study under a magic teacher to correct this weakness, in particular hoping that it could reduce the amount of magic backlash Held seems to experience.

to:

* PrecociousCrush: Has one of these for Valiant, an older student of Zelmeyer, who helped stopped the older students from bullying her. Valiant, for his part, doesn't quite return the affection due to the age difference (Held was around 9 at the time, and he seems to be his late teens), but doesn't crush Held's dreams by dismissing her affections outright, instead saying he has to focus on being accepted into Vallance.
* ThePromise: Makes one of these with Valiant, a fellow student of Zelmeyer whom she had a PrecociousCrush on, that they would both do their best to make it Valliance, a meritocratic country that welcomes magic users. [[spoiler:This becomes even more significant to Held when Valiant disappears (possibly even dies) after stopping an invasion from a hostile spirit.]]

Her father sends her away to study under a magic teacher named Zelmeyer to correct this weakness, in particular hoping that it could reduce the amount of magic backlash Held seems to experience.

Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup (Ambiguous Disorder; Moving to YMMV as Diagnosed by the Audience as example was solid.)


* AmbiguousDisorder: He snarks freely at his classmates and has trouble remembering their names/faces (to the point that he has trouble recognising a friend who's changed his hairstyle), but he's quite [[http://www.neorice.com/hoh_257 shocked and apologetic]] when someone ''tells'' him he's being rude. Fan wiki suggests it is [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosopagnosia prosopagnosia]] -- reduced ability to recogize faces and facial expressions.

* ChildProdigy: Being born with magic is already uncommon, but what sets Held apart is that she was able to use spirit techniques ever since she was an ''infant'', though her body wasn't ''quite'' as ready to use them yet, frequently resulting in her coughing up blood.

!Held

The fourth (and most recent) protagonist introduced. A young girl born with magical abilities in a kingdom during a period where ''all'' magic users were purged, she was left with her uncle (an accomplished magic user himself) to keep her safe.

* MarkOfTheSupernatural: Held was born with vivid pink hair, which is what tipped her parents off that she would be a magic user. This was unfortunate for them, as not only were they living in a kingdom and period where magic users were distrusted to the point of slaughtering them, her father was in charge of ''carrying out said purges''. He left her with her uncle as a way to not have to kill his daughter.

Played with, as it's her ''powers'', and her [[PowerIncontinence lack of control over them]] that are the biggest threats; Chernyl otherwise appears to be a decent person that is utterly ''terrified'' of her abilities [[spoiler:and was unaware of just how ''bad'' things had gotten, due to a trick by the Hallowman that convinced her that her powers were being contained, until Noah informed her of the truth]].

* LogicalWeakness: While Burk is fast and nimble enough to dodge most direct attacks, and has some ability to NoSell magical attacks, there's not much he can do against a massive AOE attack that isn't magical in nature and is too fast to escape from, [[spoiler:such as the massive sonic attack Vonesperda unleashed [[https://www.neorice.com/hoh_latest here]], which actually caused him to bleed]].

Corrected misspelling of Ambiguously Evil in Ciel's entry


* AmbiguoslyEvil: Her exact moral compass isn't clear. While she does attempt to help Noah, there's a lot about her that Noah finds either annoying or offsetting, including how she's referred to [[spoiler:Noah jumping into a person's mind]] as ''meals'' for herself. This isn't helped by her urging Noah to do so with various powerful magic users in spite of the risk it poses.

Added Aura Vision to Noah's entry, Ambiguosly Evil to Ciel's folder, Eye Scream to Veda's folder and Undying Loyalty to Nail's folder.


* AuraVision: One of the magical abilities that Noah actually works on, and indeed excels at, is Spirit Sight, which lets him see the spirit in his surroundings, including the spirit emanating from other magic users. After some lessons from Ciel, he's shown to something of a prodigy in that aspect, with some of the Royal Guard giving Noah the nickname "Radar."



* EyeScream: [[spoiler:Is revealed to be alive but held captive by the Hallowman during the Nightmare arc. Apparently not able to land any lethal hits on Veda due to some mysterious protection she has, the Hallowman exploits the loophole of ''non''-lethal wounds... by ''ripping out her eye''. He does this more so to torment Nail so that he would give information that the Hallowman wanted.]]





to:

\n* UndyingLoyalty: While little is still known about him, what's clear is that he's very loyal to Veda. [[spoiler:The Hallowman attempts to exploit this by torturing Veda in front of Nail to get him to surrender any information he may know.]]
