* EmissaryFromTheDivine: As avatar, Tarot's role in the Cosmic Game is to carry out Dragon's will and ocassionally deliver messages for her by allowing the goddess to take over her body.

* TooCleverByHalf: The counterpart to Peanut's TooDumbToFool. She's much smarter, but more likely to overlook the simple solution, best shown during ''Temple Crashers 2'', when they get to choose their powers and forms in Pete's temple. Tarot chooses to take the form of her HulkingOut body and gets stuck at a puzzle near the endgame, while Peanut waits to see what the best course of action is, eventually taking the form of a loosely defined 'Puzzle Master' so he can just cheat the system.

* PoweringVillainRealization: Played with. Tarot knew Dragon's power would be meaningless if Tarot wasn't there to enact her demands according to the rules of The Game; it was ''Dragon'' who was too short-sighted to see how disastrous mistreating that power-supplier would be. Tarot put up with so much during her career with Dragon, the goddess never thought for a moment Tarot would turn against her, or even disliked her. When Dragon realizes what's happening, she asks Tarot in shock "What did I ever do to hurt you?". As soon as Tarot and King have time to talk without being spied on by their respective gods, the two agree to put their weapons down and cease combat entirely, which ends The Game.

* WomenAreWiser: Tarot and Sabrina are far more sensible and intelligent than many of their male cohorts, with the notable exception of King, who infrequently butts heads with Tarot due to their conflicting natures.

** She can also turn into Dragon at the goddess' will (Presumably and hopefully with Tarot's consent, although it seems Tarot can fight her off if she really wants to), which seems to dissipate her normal body until Dragon is complete.

* TransformationOfThePossessed: When Dragon takes over her body, she can choose to speak through Tarot's body (which turns her eyes green and allows Dragon control of her) or to transform her entirely. This is what leads Peanut to believe that Tarot is shapeshifting ''into'' a dragon, rather than being possessed by a different entity entirely.



* VoluntaryShapeshifting: She's capable of transforming into a much larger, more monstrous form with the help of Spirit Dragon's powers. After her depowering, she regains this ability twice, both when in proximity of a Mana Pool she taps into to borrow power from.

* FirstEpisodeTwist: Tarot works for a Celestial, is on the opposite side from King, and her 'Dragon form' is actually it's own character who she works for. All of these were twists at one point, but later plot points cannot be discussed at all without these being established.

* LastMinuteHookup: She shows up at the very end of ''N-ple Date'' to hook up with Peanut.



* PairTheSpares: Tarot shows up to Peanut as soon as he accepts that he can't have Grape, and tells Grape that she is here ''because'' he can't have her.



* StrangledByTheRedString: An in-universe example. Tarot shows up out of nowhere to pair up with Peanut solely so he'll have a love interest in the comic, but not only is this a diagetic event that is considered by Grape to be sudden and bizarre, it turns out to have actually been part of a planned move by TheChessmaster Dragon.
