* {{Foil}}: According to [[WordOfGod audio commentary]], this was intentional. Eloise is brave and hardworking and opinionated and basically everything that the Pirates have to learn to be.

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Of course he is when he's played by Larry the Cucumber. Elliot presses the button on the Help-Seeker even though his friends understandably think it might be a bomb, when it causes a rowboat to appear he presses the button hoping it'll give another rowboat, while on the Island of Walking Rocks he amuses himself by making a couple of small rocks "walk" and making up a little song about them, sees nothing wrong with singing thirty-two verses of "Papa's Got A Gumball, Nelly" much to George's chagrin...

She\'s definitely a Determinator, but she probably doesn\'t quite qualify as an Action Girl in the normal sense
