The Vampire Diaries: Difference between revisions

** Alaric.

* [[The Casanova]]: Damon, especially when doing his 'flirty eye thing'.

* [[The Cast Showoff]]: Candice Accola singing in "The House Guest".

* [[Charles Atlas Superpower]]: Experienced hunters can resist compulsion, especially if they've had training.

*** As of "Isobel", we now know that {{spoiler|it's John Gilbert.}}

* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Yes, Elena may try to be an [[Action Girl]] within the limits of human ability, but she is also nearly constantly being threatened and/or kidnapped to enrage Stefan or sometimes Damon. Justified as she is pretty much the only main character who doesn't have any sort of magic ability.

* [[Doppelganger]]: Elena is specifically called Katherine's doppelganger. They are both "Petrova" doppelgangers.

* [[Domino Revelation]]: First we learn about vampires then witches and eventually werewolves.

* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Elena and Bonnie (Tomboys) and Caroline and Katherine ([[Girly Girls]]). Though in a refreshing subversion, Caroline and Katherine are the feisty [[Action Girl|Action Girls]] whilst retaining their femininity.

** It is doubtful that any of the women listed can be called Tomboys, especially Bonnie. Neither Bonnie or Elena have demonstrated much physical skill and {{spoiler|Caroline and Katherine are vampires imbued with superhuman strength and with the inherit ability to fight, especially Caroline who have gotten new found fighting skills since she was turned}} Bonnie has not exhibited anything in particular but her witch powers. All of them are girly-girl feminine and not true Tomboys like say [[Lost]]'s Ana-Lucia Cortez. Still that doesn't mean they aren't tough. Elena can take pain very well without breaking down and sobbing.

** Also Caroline after {{spoiler|Katherine turns her into a vampire. With no help from anyone, she manages to feed herself, glamour a nurse into forgetting that she attacked her, and call Damon out for behaving so badly towards her, even flinging him down a hallway.}}

** Bonnie, as of late Season 1 can bring on a really nasty migraine in 160 year-old vampires with just a squinty, mean look. Throw in telekinesis and the ability to set fire to water with just her mind and she has the edge on most of the supernatural beings on the show {{spoiler|except Katherine thus far}}. May become an example of [[Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards]] as the show progresses.
