Asshole Victim: Most of the villains in the story. Played exceptionally straight in The Long Kiss where the victim is horrifically butchered but, honestly, had it coming. |

Classy Cat-Burglar: Rosenwyn used to be one of these but has changed her mind. Surprisingly, most of the women tend to be much more action orientated and swashbuckling than this trope tends to apply to. |
