* ToBeLawfulOrGood: As the head of the family responsible for mediating witches' issues, she has no choice but to uphold the law and act as neutral as possible, though she is not blind to the kind of person Athalie is. She needs someone from the Severin's family to request a formal trial to be able to pursue action against her, despite her own suspicions. However, she keeps a close eye on how the events are unfolding, believing that the situation that led to Camille's trial is far from being over.

Not quite sure where to sort "Chloe", as I have no idea if both Camille and her are considered to be born "Le Roux" or "Severin" (since this is a matriarchal system).

Camille's mother. She was choosen as the Severin's matriarch, a position that her twin sister Athalie inherited after her tragic death.
* DealWithTheDevil: Like everyone else in her family, Abrielle made a pact with a demon in order to get a wish fulfilled. [[spoiler:Unlike everyone else, she didn't wish for a rich husband: she made a wish for her love, Kalen, allowing him to fully transition from female to male.]]

Added DiffLines:

* RedEyesTakeWarning: Not herself, but after the trial, while she outwardly remains composed with hints of her anger, her familiar, Basil, ostensibly hisses and gains several additional eyes, all of them red. Such a violent reaction scares the [=LaCour=] wheelchair girl enough that she immediately notes that Babette must be informed of this event. Considering how a familiar is linked to their witch's soul, Basil's reaction can be interpretated as Athalie's own.


Added DiffLines:

[[folder:Babette [=LaCour=]]]
The current matriarch of the [=LaCour=] family.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: As the head of the family in charge of settling differences and issues between witches' families, she shows herself to be level-headed, calm and collected, and not easily swayed by words or emotions. While she firmly disagrees to have Camille "muted", she makes it clear that it is because it would be a misuse of a process designed to protect children from themselves and from people who would use their powers to gain advantage over other families, noting that Camille didn't hurt anyone and that her actions didn't warrant such a terrible punishment (especially since, as an adult with a summoned familiar, being muted would essentially kill her). While she distrusts Athalie, she does remind Camille's grandmother that she didn't forget that she hid Camille's heritage from the court, and that if Camille had injured or killed people through her power outburst, the trial would have taken an entirely different direction. In the end, she wants to uphold the witches' laws and respect the spirit of said laws, thus why she doesn't take immediate further action following the trial despite suspecting Athalie of nefarious actions: her hands are tied. She notes that depending on how events unfold, she may have to change some things regarding the independance of witches' families.
* TheStoic: She never raises her voice during the trial, and was able to calmly silence and scare Athalie with a few choosen words and a subtle display of power.

* BeneathTheMask: She acts cold, composed and haughty, but once her buttons are pressed she is quick to let her emotions take control, such as her [[spoiler:sickly joy when she gets proof that Camille has mixed powers and interprates it as a reason for her to be "Muted", and when she flew into a rage when the court refused to punish Camille]]. As the Lacour Matriarch justly points out to her, she has been able to escape being put on trial so far because she was able to keep her facade in public, but her outburst led her to be reprimanded and tipped off everyone present on the kind of person she really is, on top on giving credence to the rumors surrounding her.
--> '''Lacour Matriarch''': You believe you are beyond reproach. You've avoided a direct trial so far only because you put on a good face. But your mask is slipping. So unless you want the court to judge you... I suggest you put your mask back on. And behave.




to:

* SiblingMurder: Discussed. During the trial, she is asked point-blank if she knows anything about the summoned demon who took the lives of her sister and one of her niece, with the clear underlying accusation that she may have been responsible for it. Athalie is visibly stunned by the question, and coldly refutes it.
* WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises: For all her bravado, Athalie is genuinely distraught when the Lacour Matriarch puts her in her place and makes it abundantly clear that she holds no power inside the Lacour's house.
