Line 46 ⟶ 44:
* [[Kill the Cutie]]: Stabbed thrice by Bec Noir as her Dream Self. Killed off-screen by Gamzee with his [[Carry a Big Stick|Duce Clubs]].
** And now, in [S] Flip, it's made even worse by the fact that her smiling head sits on the jury of Gamzee's mock trial.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922111049/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/walls-covered-in-blood Walls Covered In Blood], which is later remixed for her [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922112907/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/nepetas-theme walkaround theme].
* [[Meaningful Name]]: ''Nepeta cataria'' is the scientific name for catnip. ''Leijona'' means "lion" in Finnish. Leijon was also the last name of a Swedish politician who was the target of a kidnapping plot known as Operation Leo.
** Arsenic used to be used as a green dye.
Line 55 ⟶ 53:

* [[Satellite Character]]: It's [[Word of God]].

However, as of more current updates [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005611 the cat is observed.] Farewell, Nepeta. And then, just to put any doubt to rest, he addressed the issue [[Incredibly Lame Pun|head on]] [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005660 here].
* [[Shipper on Deck]]: Keeps track of all of her friends and herself on her Shipping Wall of course! She takes shipping very seriously and keeps constant track of how relationships develop. She also has Nepeta<3Karkat marked off as her own personal [[OTP]].
* [[Ship Tease]]: The entirety of her [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004195 Shipping Wall] is this. The topmost pairing relates to her specifically, showing that she has a crush on Karkat, of all people. According to him, he's aware of this and has been trying to sidestep the whole thing for quite some time now.
Line 63 ⟶ 61:
* [[Shout-Out]]: Probably not an intentional one, but [[Doraemon|does that fursuit remind you of anyone?]]
** An alternative theory on the forums is that it's a Cathearst suit (from the epilogue of ''[[Problem Sleuth]]'', a Catwoman [[Expy]])
** Her relationship to Equius is evocative of the relationship of Enkidu and [[The Epic of Gilgamesh|Gilgamesh]].
* [[Theme Naming]]: Nepeta's Zodiac sign is Leo.
* [[Third Person Person]]:
** She's the only person in the entire comic to continue to refer to herself by her screen name after her name is entered.
* [[There Are No Therapists]]: In a nice aversion, it turns out that she goes above and beyond as Equius' moirail -- so much that he credits her for keeping him from going as crazy and homicidal as sober!Gamzee.
Line 71 ⟶ 69:
* [[Wolverine Claws]]: Her [[Weapon of Choice]] (they're on gloves, not part of her body though).

* [[Fan Girl]]: She discovered Rose's [[
* [[Fan Nickname]]: Kanpire, Vampaya.
* [[Fashionable Asymmetry]]: Has a bent horn, and most of her outfits are both asymmetrical ''and'' fashionable. The bent horn may have to do with her symbol; it seems like almost all the troll symbols resemble their horn configuration.
Line 122 ⟶ 117:
* [[Hope Spot]]: Shared with Tavros. "Alas, they [[Deader Than Dead|cannot be revived]]. Their dream selves [[Kill It with Fire|have been slain]]." See also [[Unspoken Plan Guarantee]].

* [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]]: She isn't as awful as Tavros at trolling, but she was unenthusiastic about it from the outset and befriends the person she was trying to annoy.
* [[Insistent Terminology]]: She doesn't meddle or mediate. [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004244 She HELPS, dammit!]
* [[Ironic Death]]: Killed by the very wand she made. Not to mention her previous conversation with Future Jade where she said she was eagerly awaiting Kanaya's password from her past self. And the password? [[Incredibly Lame Pun|CROOOOOOOOOOOAK.]]
* [[Lady in Red]]: In the time that she isn't seen after killing Eridan, she replaces her bloody outfit with a gorgeous, blood-red evening gown.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922114912/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/virgin-orb Virgin Orb], which is later remixed for her walkaround theme, [https://web.archive.org/web/20130922122113/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/darling-kanaya Darling Kanaya].

* [[Only Sane Man]]: At least [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004061 Karkat thinks so].

* [[Shout-Out]]: She reads [[Our Vampires Are Different|rainbow drinker]] [[Twilight (novel)|romance literature]].
** She's [[Monty Python's Flying Circus|a lumberjack and she's okay]], she sleeps all night and works all day. She cuts down trees, she skips and jumps, she likes to pick wild flowers. She puts on [[Unlimited Wardrobe|women's clothing]], but doesn't hang around in bars.
* [[Sincerity Mode]]:
{{quote|<span style{{=}}"color
<span style{{=}}"color
<span style{{=}}"color
* [[The Stoic]]: In addition to not having any outstanding mental disorders or personality flaws, Kanaya is damn near unflappable.
** [[Stoic Woobie]]: What's the only thing that breaks her calm demeanor during Hivebent? Heartbreak. (Well, that and the taste of blood.)
*** Dealing with Rose [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004599 breaks] [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004600 her] [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004620 calm demeanor] again, at least at first.
* [[Strange Girl]]: She goes out in the daytime (risking attack by the undead) and loves sunlight, bright colors, and fashion.
** She's also completely sane and level headed, which by troll standards is very unusual.
* [[Sword Over Head]]: Done [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005245 here] with her [[Chainsaw Good|CHAINSAW.]] Too bad it [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005246 fails] [[Tear Jerker|against white science]]...[http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005247 Oh Gog]
* [[Team Mom]]: Given all her "fussing and meddling," she seems to consider herself one of these. It's tempting to agree given she's told Vriska she wouldn't keep stepping on things if she picked up her room once in a while. And since her sign is Virgo, that would make her a [[The Bible|virgin mother]].
Line 200 ⟶ 195:
* [[Three-Point Landing]]: Invoked with the [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005438 perfect landing of shades falling from the sky.]
* [[Token Minority]]: An in-universe minority, being the one of the few on Alternia with her particular hue of blood, and as such one of the few who could have a Virgin Mother Grub as a lusus, which is so uncommon that it is considered a historical event. She also loves sunlight, though nearly all other trolls are nocturnal. She's also the only one of the twelve trolls who isn't bisexual.
* [[Took a Level
* [[Unlimited Wardrobe]]: She's the only troll with a fondness for colors and fashion (such as it is in a very utilitarian society) and her WARDROBIFIER, much like Jade's, allows her to instantly change outfits at various intervals.
* [[Unspoken Plan Guarantee]]: Kanaya tells Jade she's going to hatch the Matriorb in the center of the meteor and raise the new Mother Grub to repopulate the troll race. And then the Matriorb was blown to bits. And then Kanaya died.
Line 207 ⟶ 202:
* [[Word of Gay]]: Fans have speculated that, unlike most trolls, Kanaya is [[Everyone Is Bi|not bisexual]], Andrew confirmed that speculation.

* [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]: Gets into a lot of ship-tease/slap slap kiss dealings with Karkat. Later befriends and practically falls for Dave. (Of course, when all's said and done, Terezi's probably badder than either of them.)
* [[Amoral Attorney]]: She aspires to become one, as shown in her court roleplay where the verdict was decided on a coin toss.
{{quote|
"Coin? What coin? Surely you jest, Mr. Senator. The prosecution sees no coin.
''[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s{{=}}6&p{{=}}003947 SHE'S BLIND, REMEMBER?]''" }}
* [[Battle Couple]]: With Karkat, kind of.
Line 245 ⟶ 238:
* [[Head-Tiltingly Kinky]]: She likes Dave's [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/storyfiles/hs2/scraps/ohy34h.jpg obscene bucket comic], her [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004642 response] is "this comic is borderline pornographic, you are a really fucked up kid (it is fantastic, I love it)".
* [[The Hyena]]: Even in text! Her default sprite expression is a laughing grin.
* [[Idiot Ball]]: Terezi's desire for revenge on Vriska gets to the point where she thinks Vriska is the one killing everybody. Partially because she keeps falling for the fake evidence Gamzee is setting up.
* [[Inspector Javert]]: Her "investigations" started by the discovery of Tavros's corpse have led her to conclude that Vriska killed everyone, lack of evidence be damned!
** Also played with, in the fact that although she is partially wrong about the :murder spree, she still has at least one very valid reason for pursuing her - the fact that Jack will find Terezi and her friends if she doesn't get to Vriska first. Chalk it up to [[Dramatic Irony]] depending on who you are rooting for.
Line 254 ⟶ 247:
** She was okay with Vriska killing and feeding young trolls to her lusus, and even helped her with it, but only if she considered the trolls to be bad people. Vriska doesn't care either way.
* [[Kubrick Stare]]: [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003945 here.]
* [[Leitmotif]]: An odd example: while she has a few songs about her (The Lemonsnout Turnabout and <nowiki>L33TSP34K 4ND HORN3D SM1L13S >:]</nowiki>), her only official leitmotif is her [https://web.archive.org/web/20130425135051/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/track/terezis-theme walkaround theme].
* [[Letters 2 Numbers]]: Specifically, with [[Arc Number|4, 1, and 3]]. It gets Lampshaded when she's referring to Aradia's handle (AA = 44), and again when she specifies when she needs 413 Boonbonds ("aie").
* [[Love Before First Sight]]: Dave, according to Karkat.

** She can smell Skaia from Prospit, which even by conservative estimates is still miles away.
Line 287 ⟶ 280:
* [[Screw Destiny]]: Told John she was doing so by trying to kill him
** Remains one of the few people who disagrees with the [[You Can't Fight Fate]] mentality of Sburb.
{{quote|<span style{{=}}"color
* [[Self-Defeating Prophecy]]: [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/scratch.php?s=6&p=005732 Predicting what would have happened if she had let Vriska escape to fight Bec Noir]
* [[Sense Freak]]: She's really interested in the scent and taste of various blood colours, and really curious about Dave's eyes.
Line 296 ⟶ 289:
* [[Shout-Out]]: Terezi is basically Alternia's version of [[Daredevil]]. It's even alluded to in the comic.
** Her use of a coin in the trial scene is a reference to [[Batman|Harvey Dent]] aka Two-Face.
** Her track on the [https://web.archive.org/web/20131104182954/http://homestuck.bandcamp.com/album/alternia official troll album] is called "The Lemonsnout Turnabout". The ''[[Phoenix Wright]]'' games are known as ''Turnabout Trials'' in Japan, and each case in the games has Turnabout in the title (barring the DS extra, which is more a pun on the attorney's name).
*** Furthermore, her forensic investigation of Tavros's body was done a few days before the Japanese release of ''[[Ace Attorney Investigations]] II''.
*** She has also lately dismissed one of her own amateur forensics-type theories as preposterous, while at the same time doing Edgeworth's trademark belittling shrugging/shaking head pose.
Line 303 ⟶ 296:
* [[Slap Slap Kiss]]: More like Mock Mock Cuddle, but definitely this with Karkat.
* [[The Social Expert]]: She's the most talented manipulator of the series, contrasted with Vriska who relies on more direct [[Psychic Powers]].
* [[Starfish Language]]: She jokes about this.

* [[Stealth Pun]]: She likes dragons, and she likes brutal law. What kind of law does she like? Draconian law!

* [[Sword Cane]]
* [[Take That]]: "
* [[The Un-Reveal]]: Terezi takes her shades off for the first time post-blindness, and [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004475 her eyes are just offscreen.]
** Later given a proper [http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004658 reveal].
Line 320 ⟶ 313:
* [[Vein-O-Vision]]: She claims in [http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004475 this] conversation with Karkat that she can "smell" his red blood underneath his skin.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Predicts this relationship for Rose and herself.
{{quote|
** She definitely has this kind of relationship with Dave.
* [[Weapon of Choice]]: Her [[Improvised Weapon|cane]], which also doubles as a [[Epic Flail|multi-segmented]] [[Daredevil|staff.]]
** As of the end game, she's using it as a sword more than a cane.
* [[Western Zodiac]]: Libra. Especially apparent with her constant taste for judgement.
* [[You Taste Delicious]]: Thanks to her enhanced senses of taste and smell she describes the other trolls' blood as flavors. Karkat is cherry, as are the human kids, Sollux's eyes are apple-berry blast while his blood is
** [[Averted Trope|Averted]] when Terezi examines the site of Kanaya's death and when she samples a bit of the blood, she responds with a 'BLUH'.
*** Against her better judgement she does admit that Vriska's god tiered outfit smells delicious.
*** Gamzee is grape jelly.
