* BreakTheHaughty: [[spoiler: His time being held captive in the Sun Goddess's cult seems to have been a humbling experience, turning him from a stereotypical pampered prince to a much more gracious young man.]]
* MommasBoy: Frederick is implied to be far closer to his mother than to his father, as the queen always stands up for him, even when he misbehaves.
* RoyalBrat: Prince Frederick initially comes across as this in his various descriptions, not to mention his behavior prior to his disappearance in ''Princess Wishes''. It's implied that his increasingly defiant actions, (ie. Dyeing his hair, getting a nose piercing) was a result of Toxic Friend Influence by [[spoiler: the Sun Goddess's cult]]. He becomes a much kinder person after being rescued.
* TookALevelInKindness: After being rescued from [[spoiler: the Sun Goddess' cult]] in ''Princess Wishes'', Frederick appears to have matured significantly from a pampered RoyalBrat to a kinder and more gracious prince.

* AesopAmnesia: Lyra seems to have [[TookALevelInKindness learned to be more polite and humble]] by the end of ''Princess Wishes'', but by the time the heroes meet her again in Ballerina Wishes, she's back to her typical bratty self. Maddie even lampshades this trope, and Zak blithely remarks that people like her rarely ever change. The character development seems to actually stick by the end of ''Pony Wishes'', however.

* BeautyIsBad: The Ice Queen is very beautiful, but is also incredibly cold-hearted and ruthless, to the point where she abducts Peregrine's mother to draw her chariot, and later tries to imprison a servant boy for accidentally bringing her a food she's allergic to. Sebastian notes that the Ice Queen's powers are a lot like her, beautiful, but deadly.
* BigBad: Of ''Unicorn Wishes'', where she abducts Peregrine's mother Phoebe and forces the unicorn to draw her chariot, and curses the young Peregrine with amnesia so he can't reveal her location. [[spoiler: She also serves as the main antagonist of ''Princess Wishes'', having escaped the events of the first book and reinvented herself as the Sun Goddess.]]
* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler: In ''Princess Wishes'', she barricades herself in her temple when Sebastian uses his final spell to reactivate the volcano she built it in. Prince Frederick claims that she's far too vain to abandon her monument, so it's very likely that she perished within its walls.]]
* GodGuise: [[spoiler: She returns in ''Princess Wishes'' under the new moniker of the Sun Goddess, having convinced the hermit people living inside Sun Mountain that she is their goddess and that they must obey her.]]
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: The Ice Queen is a cruel sorceress who abducts and imprisons wayward youths in her castle and forces them to do her bidding. [[spoiler: It extends further when she takes up the moniker of the Sun Goddess in the third book, where she continues to abduct young people from around Zavania into her cult, including Lyra's own brother, and works them to near death to build her temple. Her sadistic nature is put on full display when the group discovers that the Sun Goddess took a twisted pleasure in working Frederick harder than the other enslaved servants.]]
* AnIcePerson: Her magic is primarily ice-based and she resides in a castle sculpted from ice. [[spoiler: She later drops this elemental association after reinventing herself as the Sun Goddess in ''Princess Wishes''.]]

She gets better. [[AesopAmnesia Eventually.]]

* BigSisterInstinct: Age-inverted in ''Princess Wishes'', where she wishes for her older brother Frederick to return home safely. She initially tries to brush it off by stating she's just tired of doing Frederick's royal duties in his absence, but it becomes rather clear as the story progresses that she's deeply worried about him and misses him terribly.
* HateAtFirstSight: Lyra immediately dislikes Maddie when they first meet, insulting her appearance and dismissing her as a common peasant. The feeling is certainly mutual, as Maddie instantly finds herself despising the princess after only knowing her for a few minutes.
* PrincessesPreferPink: She wears a pink gown, and her ballet dress in ''Ballerina Wishes'' is also pink.

A nasty schoolgirl who frequently bullies Maddie and Lucy for incredibly petty reasons.

* AcademicAlphaBitch: As shown in ''Princess Wishes'', Jessica is a relentless grade-grubber and loves to rub her academic success in people's faces, boasting that she'll receive all the academic awards at the school's prize-giving.
