Elizabeth Storybook (Shining Bonds)/Tropes

Tropes that apply to Elizabeth Storybook, written as if it were a TV Tropes page.

## Characterization and background

* **Nice Girl**: Most of the time.
* **Genki Girl**: She's very upbeat and cheerful.
* **A Tragedy of Impulsiveness**: This one of her main flaws, as she is often reckless and impulsive which can cause problems.
* **Chronic Hero Syndrome**: Even more so than Nanette. She just *cannot* seem to leave somebody who is having a problem alone, even if her help is not needed.
* **No Nudity Taboo**: Zigzagged. She would not take kindly to somebody seeing her naked in civilian form, but doesn't mind when transformed.
* **All-Loving Heroine**: She's a very kind girl and cares for everyone, being willing to forgive villains if they have a change of heart.
* **Beware the Nice Ones**: Very nice and kindhearted most of the time, but dare to harm her Pokémon or friends in any way, and she drops her niceness in a flash.
* **Incorruptible Pure Pureness**: A pure-hearted Nice Girl.
* **Not So Above it All**: Sometimes acts rather childish and immature.
* **Wide-Eyed Idealist**: Uh, *hello*, she's the bearer of the Element of hope! However, she's sometimes a bit too optimistic for her own good, often failing to realize when somebody's not being sincere or is taking advantage of her.
* **Phoneaholic Teenager**: Is 13 and spends a lot of time texting or browsing the Internet on her phone.
* **Deadpan Snarker**: Not very often, but when she does, her sharp eyes add to the effect.
* **Death Glare**: Sometimes, particularly when somebody tells an obvious lie.
* **Meaningful Name**: In the Japanese version, her name is Nijino Nijiko, which means "rainbow child of the rainbow." Fitting, considering her multicolored hair.
* **Sweet Baker**: She's kind and nice and enjoys baking, due to wanting to open her own patisserie one day.
* **Values Dissonance**: Angel Wing is nude since in Japanese culture, being naked is a symbol of purity. Nintendo of America still didn't accept this reasoning in the English dub since nudity is much more taboo in American culture, so they edited her to wear clothes in the English dub.
* **Interrupted Sleep**: In her debut episode, when she and her Pokémon are asleep, Nanette rudely barges into her room in the middle of the night due to her being a Chosen One, instead of just waiting until morning. This makes her, Dragonet, Rotom, Bluey, Casty, Bubblebath, Pudding, and Carrot Cake all think Nanette's a burglar.
* **Berserker Tears**: When Akumatized into The Behaver, she angrily bursts into tears and is visibly distressed when she realizes Ladybug, Cat Noir, and the other heroes have hidden Dragonet from her, destroying several buildings with Aerial Ace while crying in a fit of rage.
* **Stalker Without a Crush**: Her goal as The Behaver is to hunt down Dragonet so she doesn't ever disobey again, and her hawk-like vision helps. She flies all around the city, scanning every last street and building while angrily shouting her name to try and find her. This forces the other heroes, Ladybug, and Cat Noir to hide her from her, much to Behaver's angst as she doesn't understand why they're hiding her best friend from her.
* **Stupid Good**: She thinks every single villain is capable of redemption, not understanding some people just won't change, and immediately believed Meowth's fake redemption promise in "Meowth's Scrafty Tactics" even though everybody else was (rightfully) skeptical. She even tried to reason with Scarlet Moth in episode 5 of season 3 and tried to convince him to use his Miraculous for good, but he refused to listen and escaped from the heroes and the French heroes before they could retrieve it.
* **Determinator**: It takes a ***REALLY*** brave person to confront the most powerful and dangerous villain in all of the Multiverse one-on-one when it's been established that confronting her directly is an almost guaranteed suicide mission despite her being about the same age as most of the heroes. Not even Nanette is willing to fight her directly. And she does this while being only 13 years old and wearing nothing but a pair of white wings on her back. *While refusing to attack her.*

## Appearance

* **Multicolored Hair:** Her hair is multicolored.
* **Barbie Doll Anatomy**: When transformed, she's drawn with no nipples or private parts, but the English dub still edited clothes over her anyways.
* **Tsurime Eyes**: She has rather sharp, almost square-shaped eyes that resemble those of Hiiragi Kagami from *Lucky Star*.
* **Color Motifs**: Primarily dresses in blue.
* **Quirky Curls**: Her hair is naturally curly and poofy and she has a cheerful personality, though she usually straightens it. When it gets wet, it poofs back to being curly with a sound effect of a balloon deflating.
* **Rainbow Motif**: Has rainbow-colored hair, a rainbow flower as a Harmony Mark, and her primary outfit includes rainbow socks.
* **Chest Insignia**: More like a waist/shirt-edge insignia, but her Harmony Mark is a rainbow flower. Despite usually being the "muggle," however, she has it untransformed as well.
* **You Gotta Have Blue Hair**: Most members of the cast have varying shades of unnatural hair colors, but Elizabeth's takes the cake for being rainbow colored *as a civilian*.
* **Instant Costume Change**: Inverted as Angel Wing - when she transforms, she gains wings but her clothes disappear completely, leaving her naked. Played straight when she detransforms, however, as her clothing reappears when she changes back.
* **Facial Markings**: Has a blue star marking in the middle of her forehead as Angel Wing.
* **Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever**: As The Behaver, she is a giant Braviary who is much larger than a normal Braviary.

## Abilities

* **Bada\*\* Normal**: She posesses a Harmony Mark untransformed like the other main characters, can use the Element Bottles, is connected to an Elemental of Harmony, is a Chosen One and a main character, and posesses the Light Element... yet can't transform under normal circumstances. She makes up for it with her Pokémon and strategy, however.
* **Light 'Em Up**: Posesses the Light Element (albeit usually inactive), and posesses light-based powers as Angel Wing.

* **Full-Frontal Assault**: Fights naked as Angel Wing. Averted in the English dub, however, where she is edited to wear clothes.
* **Beam Spam**: Angel Wing's main method of attack.
* **Synchronization**: Can help Dragonet become Ash-Dragonet when their feelings are in sync, giving her a significant power boost, though it exhausts them both.
* **Superpowers For a Day**: She only transforms when more help is needed than what is usually available or when the heroes need to get somewhere quickly by flying.
* **Take My Hand**: Angel Wing can free and cleanse somebody who's corrupted, mind-controlled, or brainwashed by grabbing their hand/equivalent thereof and allowing the Light of Hope to flow through their connected hands. She can even turn artificially-created evil beings into normal humans provided they have had a change of heart or lack emotions or free will to begin with.
* **Hope Bringer**: Is the guardian of hope.
* **Speaks Fluent Animal**: All Chosen Ones have the ability to hear Pokémon talk even if they have little or no magic, so this trope includes her.
* **This is Something She's Got to Do Herself**: Angel Wing is the *only* hero who can directly wield the Light of Hope. Thus, since she's the only one with a chance of bringing Necrosis to the good side, freeing the other heroes/Pokémon from mind control, or breaking Event Horizon out of her brainwashing, the others can of course help her out when she frees someone, but it's her who actually has to *do* the freeing. During the final showdown against Event Horizon, the other heroes stand back and let her face Event Horizon one-on-one.
* **Super Vision**: The Behaver has extremely acute vision and can spot somebody from very far away like a hawk, due to Braviary having extremely acute vision.

## Relationships

* **Token Muggle**: Of the main cast. She can't transform under normal circumstances, yet has a Harmony Mark, an Elemental of Harmony, and an Element and can use the Elemental bottles.
* **Mama Bear**: Harm her Pokémon in any way, ESPECIALLY Rotom or Dragonet, and you'll regret it. This was best shown in SBALM015 - when Cheren beat Dragonet up after she attacked and insulted him and the others (calling them "childish idiots"), Elizabeth stormed over, absolutely *furious*, and proceeded to punch Cheren in the jaw at full force, getting him sent to the ER coughing up blood with a huge bruise and a broken jawbone.
* **Aww, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other**: Often is furious at her Pokémon when they cause mischief, but does care about them.
* **Parrot Pet Position**/**Head Pet**: Dragonet and Rotom usually take turns, with one riding on her head/arms and the other riding on her shoulder.
* **Heterosexual Life-Partners**: With Fiona, Marie, and Yvonne. She is also this with Dragonet as an interspecies human-Pokémon example.
* **Love Makes you Evil**: A temporary example in "Dragonet and Tikki's Odd Friendship." When Dragonet sneaks off to the playground with Tikki and disobeys her, she becomes furious precisely *because she loves her and doesn't want her to get hurt*. The Behaver's goal is to hunt her down so she never disobeys and gets hurt again, but since she becomes an enormous angry Braviary with extremely acute hawk vision and is *herself* a danger to her, this forces the other heroes along with Ladybug and Cat Noir to hide her from her (which only increases her rage further).
