Line 259:
* [[Heel Realization]]: While {{spoiler|Alador Blight tries to reign in his wife Odalia's worst tendencies}} when they involve murdering Amity's friends, {{spoiler|his ditziness and utter trust in his wife blinds him to her lack of empathy}}. Then in "Clouds on the Horizon", a disguised King tells {{spoiler|Alador}} what the Day of Unity involves. {{spoiler|Alador confronts Odalia about this and is horrified to find out she is okay with mass genocide, as well as handing Amity's girlfriend to the Emperor, because Belos promised to treat the Blights like royalty. He frees Amity and her friends from Odalia's Abomination forcefield, helps fight his wife and Kikimora, and destroys the Abomitron factory while quitting on the spot. As an apology, he comes with Amity and the others to drive an airship to confront Kikimora and rescue Luz because they need a pilot}}.
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Two in succession in "Thanks to them": when Belos forces {{spoiler|Hunter to crush Flapjack, it gives Hunter the [[Heroic Willpower]] to resist Belos and toss the Titan's blood in the nearby lake, knowing that Belos would rather drown trying to get it than save either of them. Sure enough, turns out neither Belos nor Hunter can swim in his Earth clothes; when Camilla rescues Hunter, his body expels Belos. Then when Hunter is not breathing as Belos shuffles into the recreated portal, a dying Flapjack rests on Hunter and willingly shares Palisman magic with him.}}
* [[He Who Fights Monsters]]: Luz and {{spoiler|King's dad]] discuss this in "Watching and Dreaming". When he gives her the option to {{spoiler|return to life and give her the power to stop Belos, Luz asks if wanting to kill Belos makes her as bad as him. King's dad responds that Luz may have made mistakes, but her intentions were always to help others and from a place of goodness. Belos can say that he wanted to be a hero, but his motives are not pure, given that he spent centuries planning genocide after murdering his brother. He wanted the glory and not the actual goodness that a true hero requires.}}
* [[Hidden Agenda Villain]]: Many.
** It was not known at first why Belos is so intent on apprehending Eda. While having powerful servants is a benefit to any ruler, there has yet to be any clue as to what his actual goals are. At the end of Season 1, he claims to be working for the Titan and that his goals involve opening a door to the human world, although he tells Lutz it's not for something as "trivial" as an invasion; this unfortunately raises a lot more questions than it answers. {{spoiler|It comes out that he wants to use the portal and the Day of Unity to release the Collector from its prison beneath the Boiling Isles, drain all the witches of their magic, and wipe them out en masse}}.
Line 279 ⟶ 280:
* [[Hypocrite]]: Odalia Blight. A small trace of this is shown in the beginning of "Escaping Expulsion" when she tells Amity, “You should be in class right now, what are you thinking?" even though ''she'' is the one who pulled Amity out of class and made her come to the office. Far more seriously, her - stated - reasons for having Luz, Gus, and Willow expelled from Hexside is because of the dangerous incidents caused by the students. While she might have a small point there, she ''literally'' tries to kill Luz later in an ''incredibly'' dangerous demonstration of an equally unsafe abomination-powered robot, something even her husband Alador seems to object to.
** Luz flat-out calls {{spoiler|Belos}} this in {{spoiler|the episode "King's Tide".}}
* [[If You Kill Him You Will Be Just Like Him]]: Belos invokes this towards Luz when {{spoiler|she lets him wither away to flesh and bones in the Titan rain, after she rips him out of the Titan's heart. She watches coolly as the rain eviscerates him, and he grovels at her feet, saying that she will be as bad as the "witches" if she doesn't save him. Luz walks away, knowing it's not her kill. She lets Eda, Raine and King deliver the final blow.}}
* [[I Gave My Word]]: {{spoiler|The Collector will honor any deal he makes if he "pinky swears" to it, though he gets ''really'' angry at anyone who breaks the deal.}}
* [[Ignored Epiphany]]:
Line 310 ⟶ 312:
** Piniet, the villain in the episode "Sense and Insensitivity" is a publisher who punishes clients who fail to meet their deadline by turning them into small cubes (and even ''steps'' on one of them when he's angry). He's also willing to use extortion to get a client to comply, kidnapping Luz to "persuade" her and King to write a sequel to King's first book. He not only gets no comeuppance at the end of the episode, he gets a client who he believes writes better than King.
** {{spoiler| Possibly Odalia. In the [[Grand Finale]], she is the only character unaccounted for, so her fate remains unknown, and it is unclear whether she ever faced any punishment for her crimes.}}
* [[Karmic Transformation]]:
** As Luz points out to Belos, {{spoiler|he sacrificed his humanity in his quest to rid the Boiling Isles of Witches. She strips the last bits of it from him when branding him with his sigil. For most of season three he has a feral form that has to move on all fours.}}
** A benevolent one in the series finale; Luz willingly takes on {{spoiler|the Titan's power from the Void Between Worlds so as to stop Belos. She becomes the witch that she always wanted to be, but uses it to save her friends and the Collector from the former Emperor.
* [[LARP]]: {{spoiler| Basically what the Collector's "game" is in Season three, although it is clearly only fun by his own twisted definition.}}
* [[Laser-Guided Karma]]: The series finale shows what happened to Kikimora: {{spoiler|she's sentenced to helping rebuild the Boiling Isles both for being a Belos stooge and trying to take advantage of the Collector's chaos.}}
