* HumanoidAbomination: A Wound in the Force is, at its basic definition, a tear in the very fabric of the Force itself that will instinctively try to repair itself by drawing in Force energies to fill the void. Usually at the expense of other Force-sensitives within the vicinity. When a Wound is centered around a location, this is not terribly bad as its reach is limited. But when its centered around a ''person'', then the siphoning power of the Wound is significantly more damaging as it is carried by its host to various locations. Both Meetra and Darth Nihilus before her defy the natural laws of the Force in a way no modern Jedi or Sith are familiar with.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan both seem to be on their way to this, as the latter allies with [[spoiler:Darth Plagueis]] while the latter, bitter over Qui-Gon's treatment of him and Anakin, begins confiding heavily in Chancellor Palpatine...
* AscendedExtra: Sifo-diyas, who never appeared physically in the films and was killed before the events of the TV series, becomes a member of the Rule of Purpose.
* AwfulTruth: [[spoiler:On top of the revelation that Chancellor Palpatine, who Dooku considered a close friend, is one of the Sith Lords actively going against the Jedi Order, Plagueis gleefully and cruelly reveals that the Republic is already en route to complete collapse due to extensive corruption in the Senate, which has also left the Jedi Order stagnant and fractured without them even realizing it. They are understandably devastated.]]
* BigBadEnsamble: [[spoiler:Darth Plagueis is still alive after the events of ''The Phantom Menace'' due to the presence of Revan and the Exile. As a result, he and Sidious are working against both each other and the Jedi.]]
* BrokenPedestal: Anakin gets a very in-depth description on what being a Jedi entails from Meetra, including being forced to abandon all emotions, including love, effectively severing any relationship he was with his mother. Beyond that, it would prevent him from ending slavery on Tatooine like he had always wanted. This effectively shatters Anakin's faith in the Jedi Order, prompting him to train under Meetra outside of their jurisdiction.
** He also becomes disenchanted with Padme after she lashes out at Meetra for her actions in the Mandalorian Wars without even bothering to look at her side of the story.
** As per canon, Obi-Wan doesn't take Qui-Gon's immediate willingness to turn him aside in favor of Anakin well. The fact that he is also quick to turn Anakin over to Meetra without a second thought doesn't help improve Obi-Wan's opinion, and Qui-Gon's unwillingness to admit to his faults pushes Obi-Wan away... [[spoiler:right into the arms of Darth Sidious]].
* DeathByAdaptation: Darth Maul is killed by Meetra on Naboo, getting the life sucked out of him by the Wound in the Force.
* DreamingOfThingsToCome: From the moment he meets Meetra, Anakin suffers recurring nightmares of her succumbing to the Wound in the Force and becoming a new Darth Nihilus. He becomes driven to stop this from happening.
* EldritchAbomination: Meetra seems to be on her way to becoming this, as her loss of the Force connections she established in ''The Sith Lords'' has caused the Wound in the Force within her to fester and grow, slowly changing her into a Force vampire similar to Darth Nihilus.

* IDidWhatIHadToDo: While she is in no way proud of it, Meetra tries to convince herself that her activation of the Mass Shadow Generator stopped the Mandalorians from continuing their crusade against the galaxy, thereby sparing many more innocent lives. Sadly, a number of characters, including Queen Amidala and Satine Kryze, repeatedly call her out on this.

[[spoiler:right into the arms of Darth Sidious]].
* DeathByAdaptation: Darth Maul is killed by Meetra on Naboo, getting the life sucked out of him by the Wound in the Force.
* DreamingOfThingsToCome: From the moment he meets Meetra, Anakin suffers recurring nightmares of her succumbing to the Wound in the Force and becoming a new Darth Nihilus. He becomes driven to stop this from happening.
* EldritchAbomination: Meetra seems to be on her way to becoming this, as her loss of the Force connections she established in ''The Sith Lords'' has caused the Wound in the Force within her to fester and grow, slowly changing her into a Force vampire similar to Darth Nihilus. [[spoiler:Luckily, Anakin seems to have stabilized the Wound by transfering a portion of his own Force signature to her, albeit at the potential cost of his own connection.]]
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: While she is in no way proud of it, Meetra tries to convince herself that her activation of the Mass Shadow Generator stopped the Mandalorians from continuing their crusade against the galaxy, thereby sparing many more innocent lives. Sadly, a number of characters, including Queen Amidala and Satine Kryze, repeatedly call her out on this.
* MoralityChain: Anakin is this to Meetra.
* SparedByAdaptation: Revan and the Exile's arrival inadvertently [[spoier:spares Darth Plagueis when Sidious plans to kill him and becomes a prominent character in the story.]]
** Sifo-diyas and Komari Vosa survive Palpatine's attempts on their life [[spoiler:and are recruited into Plagueis' new Sith order.]]
