** She appeared earlier in ''[[Kessen II]]'' as "Cai Wengi" and was portrayed much as an [[Ax Crazy]] barbarian witch.
* [[Brainy Brunette]] - Was able to write down all of her father's numerous writings just from memory. She also was a famous writer in her own right.
** Cao Cao himself greatly benefited from her in this regard.
* [[Chekhov's Gun]] If you rescue her from bandits in DW9, it just seemslike you got a quest reward and her on your team. However, she plays a role later: {{spoiler|She provides a distraction for the guards around the imperial palace that aids your infiltration}}.
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]] - In DW6: Empires, one would hope so...otherwise, what could she have done that was so bad that every single soldier and ''nature itself'' wants her dead?
* [[Love Interest]] - Notable as the only female character in the cast that averts being one. She pursues none as a love interest after her introduction and her relationship with Cao Cao lacks even the mildest hints of being anything other than platonic. Justified because she married another man after Cao Cao rescued her.
* [[Morality Pet]] - Cao Cao shows great kindness to her. It was he who rescued her from nomads and provided her with a new life.
** Turned into a [[Historical In-Joke]] in a Wei bonus stage where she goes missing and the other Wei officers panic when they consider what might happen if Cao Cao found out she came to harm.
* [[Musical Assassin]] - Prior to DW7, her weapon is a chinese violin. She currently uses a harp.▼
** We even get to see and participate in said rescue early on in DW9.
▲* [[Musical Assassin]] - Prior to DW7, her weapon is a
* [[Rescue Romance]] - Averted. Cao Cao rescues her from enemies, but they seem to be more like friends and she marries a different man afterwards.
* [[Silk Hiding Steel]]: A classy lady with the inner steel to join the battle field. Her poetry and music are moving.
* [[Token Good Teammate]] - Perhaps even moreso than Cao Ren. Cai Wenji definitely ''contrasts'' with the other ambitious Wei characters, with her honest-to-God serene, compassionate personality.
* [[Token Wholesome]] - Compared to the other female characters in the series. Ironically, this has made her very popular with many fans.
** Her outfit is very chaste even having fully covering pants under her skirt to prevent any hint of a [[Panty Shot]] when she jumps.
* [[Warrior Poet]] - Known for her poetry throughout the land.
* [[Whip It Good]]: In DW9.
* [[The Woobie]] - Considered a tragic beauty. This is reflected in her poetry.
