[[AC:The Radiance]]* [[TheDreaded The Dreaded]]: Several characters regard her as this, correctly.
* [[SealedEvilInACan Sealed Evil in a Can]]: Her canon fate. She's currently not exactly in a can, but she's got no physical means of interacting with the world outside dreams and very weak.

* AbusiveParents: A woman who is likely Benui's stepmother verbally abuses eir in a nightmare. Given what is learned later and that A calls the voice grandma... To spell it out: [[spoiler:Benui and eir daughter seem to be victims of family abduction.]]

* [[TalkToTheHand Talk to the Hand]]: Radiance joins in on a hymn that Stranger is demonstrating, before realizing (sorta incorrectly) who she is actually dueting with and magically punts Stranger out so hard, it causes them to be physically thrown to the ground. Stranger doesn't take it personally.
* [[WhatTheHellHero What The Hell Hero]]: Lurien is rather stunned by a spot of ruthlessness from Stranger when [[spoiler:ey risk the moth tribe by teaching them of the Radiance]].



* PoorCommunicationKills: Her pregnancy took far greater of a toll, because *she didn't tell Benui* that she needed eir prayer.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: She was willing to subject her children to an arguable FateWorseThanDeath.

* WellIntentionedExtremist: She was willing in canon to subject her children to an arguable FateWorseThanDeath.FateWorseThanDeath.
She is actually quite relieved in both stories that the plan is called off. Youth doesn't blame her for it, Stranger can't quite get over eir disgust.



* [[HopelessSuitor Hopeless Suitor]]: Lurien loved the Wyrm, but knew that Wyrm didn't share his feelings. In Over The Hills, he isn't interested in pursuing a child.



* UnrequietedLove: Lurien loved the Wyrm, but knew that Wyrm didn't share his feelings. In Over The Hills, he isn't interested in pursuing a child.

to:

* LaserGuidedAmnesia: The stranger fakes this. [[Spoiler: MissingMom: Benui was a parent, whose child was stolen from them]]



* DeathByChildbirth: Far Away only. Due to Benui's focus understandably being elsewhere, she seemingly goes into a comatose state or dies, begging Benui to care for the children and seeing it as her penance.
* GodsNeedPrayerBadly: She was sustained by festivals and Wyrm praying to her. Benui didn't know that Root herself needed that, leading to her (for now) apparent death in Far Away.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Her pregnancy took far greater of a toll, because *she didn't tell Benui* that she needed eir prayer.





to:

\n* TheExile: Ze'mer, who relays her very wuxia backstory on how she left and why she ultimately chose Hallownest as her home.
* FairytaleMotif: Ze'mer's story is very different from how Benui narrates, echoing the style of Exalted writer, Jenna Moran and wuxia, rather than the dark fantasy setting Hallownest truly is.
* FiveManBand: As in canon, natch.
* LesYay: Ze'mer is a lesbian and it's hinted to be the reason she got exiled.
** Strongly hinted for Dryya for Root, she's Root's (very) personal knight.



* RelationshipUpgrade: [[spoiler:Lurien and Benui, Far Away only.]]
* UnrequietedLove: Lurien loved the Wyrm, but knew that Wyrm didn't share his feelings. In Over The Hills, he isn't interested in pursuing a child.



* GeniusBruiser: In both works, she's a gruff warrior, who respects strength but she has compassion. She refuses to baby the Youth when she finds out it's a nymph and a sense of humor. She's insightful, but she has to be.

* SugarAndIcePersonaliy

to:

* SugarAndIcePersonaliyDeadpanSnarker: The stranger has very dry and self-depreciating humor.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: To try to see Root's thoughts more clearly, the stranger decides to sing [=EXEC_Linker=]-and finds that the magic is already active but that eir casting it made it stronger. Why is this important? The original use of the song was to [[spoiler:erase the caster's mind and let them be possessed by Mir/Mule.]]
* [[LadyLooksLikeADude Enby Looks Like A Dude]]: Due to the body previously holding someone who identified at least loosely as male, people consistently misgender the stranger as male.
* TheFettered: While e does learn how to defend eirself, the stranger is very pacifistic and devoutly Wiccan. To quote the Wiccan rede: ''If it shall harm none, do as you will.'' Time will tell how well the stranger upholds that morality.
* MinnesotaNice: There's a few indications that stranger is from Minnesota.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: The stranger fakes this.
* ShipperOnDeck: Stranger for Ze'mer and the Traitor Lord's Child.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: While outwardly shy and a bit standoffish, the stranger shows small acts of kindness, like thanking a kingsmould that is supposed to be mindless for their service and telling them ey're proud of them or comforting Ogrim by seeing his worth and loyalty, even if he's young and naive. The Stranger also prays to Unn when ey meet her as a show of humility and respect, which earns the grudging respect of the mosskin.



* DudeWheresMyRespect

to:

* DudeWheresMyRespectBewareTheHonestOnes: Just because the youth is being honest, doesn't mean it's dumb. On the contrary, it may be a smarter move than the stranger's lying.
* CowardlyLion: The youth is ''scared shitless'' of everyone, at least, early on.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Root's behavior infantalizing towards the youth deeply annoys it; just because it's a nymph doesn't mean it is okay to baby the wyrm.
* JustAKid: To the horror of the Dreamers and Root.
-->** KidHero: But a very capable kid.
* TheTrickster: The youth is a memester.



* WellIntentionedExtremist

to:

* WellIntentionedExtremistWellIntentionedExtremist: She was willing to subject her children to an arguable FateWorseThanDeath.
