  • The Scrappy: Briony. Although it doesn't really get bad until the fourth book when all her character development and learning about how things are not necessarily how they seem goes out the window. From this point, her sections of the story become a real trudge through her accusing people of things without having all the information, making extremely unreasonable demands and whining when she doesn't get her way. Arguably justified in-story since she has just got back to Southmarch, Midsummer is approaching and everybody with the god's blood is acting strangely, and she does get her requisite CMOA towards the end.
  • Strangled by the Red String: While some allowances can be made for Barrick and Qinnitan due to a magical connection, Briony decides that she must be in love with Vansen over the course of the second and third books, during which she has no contact with him at all.
