Line 6:
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: The Archie for Jacob's Betty and Edward's Veronica. {{spoiler|She chooses Edward.}}
* [[Birthday Hater]]: She hates the attention and how it reminds her that she still ages while Edward doesn't.
* [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]: Almost certainly unintentional, but she often comes off as this due to her poor treatment of others and rather uncharitable thoughts about others appearances.
* [[Brown Eyes]]: Meyer makes sure that we know [[Purple Prose|exactly how beautiful they are]].
* [[But I Can't Be Pregnant]]: {{spoiler|In ''Breaking Dawn''.}} [[Justified Trope|Justified]]--she had previously thought male vampires were sterile.
Line 15:
* [[Dreaming the Truth]]
* [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]]: Was described as such in the first three books, but even moreso when {{spoiler|she becomes a vampire herself}}.
* [[Escapist Character]]: For the [[Target Audience]].
* [[Fainting]]: Bella has an extremely weak constitution, and faints at the smell of blood as well as when feeling overpowered.
** And when Edward ''breathes on her'', don't forget that!
Line 24:
* [[I Can't Believe a Guy Like You Would Notice Me]]: The poster girl.
* [[I Just Want to Be Special]]
* [[Informed Ability]]: She is supposedly wide-read, but never references more than a small handful of books, and they're only the kinds any high schooler had to read in English 101.
* [[Informed Flaw]]: Bella spends so much time talking about how "plain" she is. However, boys are still all over her.
* [[Official Couple]]: {{spoiler|With Edward.}}
Line 47:
** [[Green Eyes]]: In his human life. It makes him a [[Significant Green-Eyed Redhead]].
* [[Heroic Willpower]]
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: In the Japanese dub, Edward Cullen [[Takahiro Sakurai|is]] [[Code Geass|Suzaku Kururugi]].
* {{spoiler|[[Hot Dad]]: As of ''Breaking Dawn''.}}
* [[I Cannot Self-Terminate]]: He has to go to the Volturi in order to commit suicide.
Line 55:
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old|Really 108 Years Old]]
* [[Redheaded Hero]]
* [[Shallow Love Interest]]
* [[Single-Target Sexuality]]: The only girl he has ever dated is Bella.
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]
* [[Stalking Is Love]]: One of the most [[Egregious]] acts he does in the name of "love" is breaking into Bella's room every night to watch her sleep. And he did this ''before'' they were a couple.
Line 77:
* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: ''[[Incredibly Lame Pun|Dogged.]]'' Hehehehehe. Sorry.
* [[Flanderization]]: His crush on Bella becomes a full-blown obsession.
* [[Hot-Blooded]]: Literally. His body temperature is about 108.1 at rest. The reasons behind it verge into [[Artistic License: Biology|Artistic License]] territory, but they're not unreasonable.
* [[Intimate Healing]]: Jacob has a higher body temperature than normal, so he's the obvious choice to help Bella avoid hypothermia.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]
Line 110:
* [[Vampire Hunter]]: Before he became a vampire himself.
* [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]]: In this case his power is compassion, which kind of pales in comparison to some of the more awesome powers.
** That said, it does give him an edge on resisting the desire to drink human blood, to the point that he is able to effectively operate in an environment where he is constantly exposed to it (namely a hospital), which combined with his centuries of medical experience makes him an exceptional surgeon.
* [[Where Did We Go Wrong?]]: He is said to have been a disappointment to his father.
 
=== Esme Cullen ===
Line 132:
* [[The Fashionista]]: Loves dressing people up and throwing parties, [[Les Yay|especially if Bella's involved]]. She not only organized Bella's wedding, but packed her honeymoon suitcase, dressed her up in a cocktail dress and stilettos {{spoiler|for her first post-vamp hunt}}, and filled up her closet at home with more clothes than Bella felt she could wear for a while.
* [[Genki Girl]]
* [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]]: To Jasper.
* [[Waif Prophet]]
 
Line 139:
* [[Badass Normal]]: Despite not possessing any cool vampire power (not one that we know of, at least), he is described as a strong fighter and the Cullen family's "protector".
* [[Blue Eyes]]: As a human.
* [[The Big Guy]]: He is even described as stronger than an average vampire.
* [[Boisterous Bruiser]]
* [[Determinator]]: Gives off this vibe, especially when Meyer described his constant need for rematches.
Line 207:
* [[Evil Redhead]]: Victoria
* [[For the Evulz]]: James. His gentle and almost polite amusement makes it even worse.
* [[Oh Crap]]: Laurent's last look in his face when he sees the Wolf Pack
* [[Scarily Competent Tracker]]: James
* [[Wacky Wayside Tribe]]
Line 223:
* [[Sibling Yin-Yang]]: Seth and Leah.
* [[Team Mom]]: Emily
* [[Theme Naming]]: Most of them have Old Testament names (Jacob, Seth, Leah, Sam, Paul, Rachel and Rebecca). 4 of them (Jacob, Seth, Emily and Paul) are named after Meyer's siblings.
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Jacob and Leah, Type 2.
* [[Wife Husbandry]]: A bad side effect of imprinting, as Quil and Jacob learn.
