14* KillerRabbit
15* LaserGuidedAmnesia - several times, to the point that it manages to damage her permanent memory.
16* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous - you know [[Theatre/{{Hamlet}} the one]].
17* TheOphelia - the persona she vows to never have.

39!!Ira Wright
40----
41* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence
42* BadassNormal - sort of. As a human, he had no magic or supernatural abilities whatsoever, but made up for it with wits and good acting in the face of danger. Even as an angel, he's only an ascended soul with the power of teleportation and demon purification, much, ''much'' weaker than Sariel and the others.

46* TheHeart

65* TheStoic - rarely emotes and maintains a straight face even in the face imminent danger.
66* UndyingLoyalty - to Ophelia.

95* TheChessmaster
96* CoolBigSis - what she convinced Ophelia she was.
97* DiseaseBleach - her blonde hair goes stark white after being tossed in Hell's Abyss for five months.
98* EnemyMine - she and Alice get pulled out of Hell's Abyss by Gabrielle to assist with re-securing Lillith. Although Gabrielle notes it's partially because [[NiceJobBreakingItHero breaking out Lillith was Celia's own fault]].
99* EvilPlan
100* FakingTheDead
101* ForTheEvulz - destroying Hell's Gate.
102* FromNobodyToNightmare
103* TheLegionsOfHell - controls several factions of them.
104* ManipulativeBitch - subtly made Ophelia into the self-conscious doormat she is.

112!!Alice Lestrange
113----
114* AffablyEvil - to an extent.
115* AliceAllusion
116* TheAtoner - a warped version, wherein she realized she was an awful human being...so she vowed to be a [[ToServeMan better]] [[RevengeBeforeReason ghost]]. Later played straight.
117* BodyHorror - half of her being a decrepit skeleton with rotting flesh.
118* CassandraTruth / DumbassHasAPoint - about unleashing hell and the dangers it would impose for both her and Celia. Celia refuses to listen.
119* CoolBigSis - dear Lord, she ''tries'' to be one to Ophelia, to make up for Celia's abuse, but it doesn't exactly work.
120* CuteGhostGirl - rather viciously subverted.
121* TheDitz
122** GeniusDitz - knows a lot about chemistry and physics.
123* TheDragon
124* FearlessUndead
125* {{Foil}} - to Xander.
126* GlamourFailure - can disguise herself to look like a regular human, but it fades away after too much usage.
127* HeelRealization / HeelFaceTurn - eventually.
128* IJustWantToBeNormal - as with all jikininki, she pretty much hates being one.
129* IOweYouMyLife - to Celia, again, as she felt Celia gave her a purpose outside of being a miserable soul. Hence why she goes along with Celia's gambit to open Hell's Gate, despite not liking it one bit.
130* JacobMarleyApparel - forever wears the ball gown she was buried in.
131* OlderThanTheyLook - in her 50s, but appears in her 20s, a side effect of, well, being a ghost.

133* StringyHairedGhostGirl / OurGhostsAreDifferent - a jikininki.
134* WasOnceAMan

136
137!!Agares/Jolyne Kokinos

143* CuteBruiser
144* LaughingMad - often dissolves into fits of deranged laughter while fighting.
145* MagiTek - her arms.
146* NominalHero
147* OlderThanTheyLook - she's about 90 years old, but she still resembles a thirteen-year-old.
148* OurDemonsAreDifferent
149* RedBaron - Tigerlily.
150** InSeriesNickname - Though the older demons like to call her "Spidermonkey" in mockery.
151* TokenMiniMoe - as she's physically stuck at age 13.
152
153!!Frederica "Freya" Neves
154----
155* ChurchMilitant
156* CycleOfRevenge - engaged in an decades-long feud with Samigina perpetuated by the fact that neither of them die permanently.
157* DefrostingIceQueen - was cold and distant in her first appearance, but gradually warmed up over the course of the story.
158* {{Determinator}} - Samigina has killed her well over 500 times in her life, seriously eclipsing her in power for most of her life. Freya still chases her for well over 60 years, intent of fulfilling the task that was given to her.
159* EnigmaticEmpoweringEntity - Gabrielle. She thought a young Exorcist going after one of the most powerful demons in Hell was humorous, and as such kept resurrecting Freya whenever she died (usually by Samigina's hands) so they could keep fighting.
160* KilledOffForReal - Lillith rips her heart out.
161* MadBomber - with her Exorcist techniques.
162* NunTooHoly - as far as being a Church-bound Exorcist is concerned.

168* CycleOfRevenge - engaged in an decades-long feud with Freya perpetuated by the fact that neither of them die permanently.
169* KilledOffForReal - see SuicideAttack
170* ItAmusedMe - she was opportunistic as a human, and it culminated in becoming a demon ''because she could''.
171* LonelyAtTheTop - after three centuries of immortality, she found being a demon wasn't quite what she expected it to be. Ultimately, this is what causes her death, as she felt Freya pursuing her gave her a purpose once more, and once Freya was gone, well...
172* NunTooHoly - as a human, she was a nun, and still wears her habit because it's ironic.
173* OurLichesAreDifferent - technically one by virtue of half her soul being torn into multiple pieces and put inside books, though the rest of it is still inside her flesh body.
174* PyrrhicVictory / BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu - she successfully destroys Lillith's cathedral and mortally wounds her host body, more than any of the others had managed to do before -- but at the cost of her life.
175* Really700YearsOld - about 300 years old, but appears to be in her early 20s.
176* SoulJar - developed a spell that ripped out portions of her soul to store in her grimoires, so they could independently cast spells. It also gives her a form of immortality.
177* SuicideAttack - she uses her last remaining grimoire as firepower against Lillith, blowing her chapel up.
178* TokenEvilTeammate - for the main characters. She outright admits she's not a good person, but it doesn't stop her from assisting them.
179
180!!Sallos/Priscilla
181----
182* AnIcePerson
183* BarrierWarrior
184* TheBigGuy - a slightly darker version, and she doesn't go along with a standard FiveManBand.
185* FallenAngel - a Grigori.
186* AFormYouAreComfortableWith - has to possess a human body while on Earth, as she was never human.

193* BenevolentBoss - head of the Court, and manages to get along with her subordinates quite well.
194* DealWithTheDevil
195* FallenHero
196* FromNobodyToNightmare - a much more extreme example than Celia, which she takes extra time to rub in the latter's face.
197* JadeColoredGlasses
198* NobleDemon - both literally and in the sense of the trope.
199* OurDemonsAreDifferent
200* RealityWarper

253* HypocriticalHumor - dislikes the dark persona she's acquired, and yet still enjoys her job skewering lost souls.
254* {{Immortality}} - she won't die. Ever. As a messenger of death, she's obligated to live forever, and she regenerates from even fatal angel weaknesses.

279* VoluntaryShapeshifting
280
281!!Natalia Krueger, née ''de La Fontaine''

285* KnightInSourArmor
286* MamaBear - a more passive variant, but still there.
