* [[Secret Test of Character]]: In the [[Final Battle]] of ''The Belgariad''. {{spoiler|Garion realizes that defeating Torak isn't about killing him, but rejecting him utterly.}}
* [[Serrated Blade of Pain]]: Ulgos use knives with all sorts of nasty hooks to do more damage.
* [[Shapeshifting Squick]]:
{{quote|'''Garion''': "Aunt Pol's mother was a wolf?" Garion was stunned.
'''Belgarath''': "No, Garion," Belgarath replied calmly, "she was a woman - a very lovely woman. The change of shape is absolute."}}
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: Polgara in the prequels. Actually quite intentional on her part; once her sister Beldaran was married to Riva, she decided she had to play the role of the pretty one instead of the [[Wild Child]] she'd been up until then. Vella, as well, who comes under the firm but kindly tutelage of Queen Porenn and discovers that silks and satins can be just as effective at making men drool on themselves as skin-tight leathers are.
* [[She's All Grown Up]]: Velvet, in ''The Malloreon'', as Silk is quick to notice.
