History Webcomic / IngridThePlagueDoctor

* LetsSplitUpGang: The major story arc of Season 2 has Ingrid, Amber, Adol (with his talking cursed sword), and Robert seek a neighboring CatFolk village to deal with a plague spread by rats, while Dr. Fleming, Igor, Ember, and the leeches stay in Domburg to treat the ill villagers.

* ConArtist: Stella the Wizard comes to Domburg in order to peddle her wares, none of which are of decent quality; her dragon repellant is just blueberry juice (though Ember does dislike blueberries), her rat repellant both uses the wrong type of oil, and a cheap clock self-destructs in her hand.

* LetsSplitUpGang: The major story arc of Season 2 has Ingrid, Amber, Adol (with his talking cursed sword), and Robert seek a neighboring CatFolk village to obtain some rare medicine, while Dr. Fleming, Igor, Ember, and the leeches stay in Domburg to treat the ill villagers that need it.

* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Episode 128 has Dr. Fleming reassuring Ember that Robert the Crusader's belief that Ingrid was a wicked witch coming to invade Domburg was just an overactive fantasy not worth paying further attention towards, while at that exact same time someone dressed just like a traditional wicked witch arrives in Domburg.

* TheCameo: Ember's plushie hoard depicted in Issue #50 includes a [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Salazzle]] and [[AuthorAvatar Harriet's wolf persona]].

* AnArmAndALeg: Ingrid first meets Igor when his left hand (and most of his arm) is bitten off by a pig he was taunting, requiring her urgent medical attention. While the same thing occurred in the Classic strips as a gag, it's deliberately used to advance the plot in this version, it's what leads to Ingrid being brought to his hometown of Domburg where the rest of the series is primarily set.

* FriendlyEnemy: Unlike his depiction in the Classic strips, Robert the Crusader genuinely wants to protect Domburg from malevolent magic, and tries to genuinely make amends with Ingrid after accusing her of being an evil witch. However, his tendency to put his foot in his mouth keeps their relationship rocky at best.

* ExpressiveMask: The plague doctor masks of Ingrid and Dr. Fleming (as well as Robert the Crusader's helmet in the Classic Strips) express a full range of emotion, and the faces underneath them have yet to be revealed.

* GamerChick: E-Leech, who streams herself playing games in Music/HatsuneMiku cosplay.

* IdiotHero: Adol, a local dragon-slaying hunk who's confused potions with urine samples in Issue #16, and saw more value in a rusty sword than a chest of gold in Issue #68.

* ShipperOnDeck: Ingrid's reaction to Esther and Larry being together, as seen in Issue #20.

* LastOfTheirKind: Rather than being from just a random egg that Ingrid found like in the Classic strips, Ember's origin in this version is that her egg was the last one left after her mother choked to death on a sheep.

* DelightfulDragon: Ember the dragon, who Ingrid adopts and treats like a daughter. Issue #105 has a large egg Ingrid was planning to use for a meal hatch, and reveal a baby dragon inside. The dragon, Ember, quickly proves useful in keeping her cauldron lit, and when she starts maturing, she's treated like Ingrid's daughter.

* AnimalsNotToScale: E-Leech, the result of Ingrid's leeches continuing to evolve for 300 years, can reach over a store counter with ease, and is later shown to be half the size of a human.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Dr. Fleming, usually a jovial fellow, does not take threats against his assistant Ingrid lightly, as shown in multiple confrontations with Robert the Crusader.
* BirdPeople: Ingrid denies being one, despite demonstrating suspiciously bird-like traits. [[spoiler:In "Secrets (bis)", she reveals she actually is one.]]

* DelightfulDragon: Issue #105 has a large egg Ingrid was planning to use for a meal hatch, and reveal a baby dragon inside. The dragon, Ember, quickly proves useful in keeping her cauldron lit, and when she starts maturing, she's treated like Ingrid's daughter.

* TheFaceless: Ingrid has yet to be shown without her plague doctor mask, though there's been the occasional tease. Her ArchEnemy Robert the Crusader is also constantly masked, to the point where, in Issue #133, he's forgotten what he looks like underneath.

* GentleGiant: Dr. Fleming is quite tall and surprisingly buff, but is eager to help Ingrid get better at medicine.
* GivenNameReveal: The end of the "Unmasked" arc has Dr. Fleming reveal that Ingrid's last name is "Corvus", and that due to learning about them in his travels, he's always been aware of Ingrid's secret.
* HospitalHottie: Both Ingrid (technically, as she has no license) and Dr. Fleming, when their cloaks come off.

* KillerRabbit: The leeches, while small and seemingly weak on their own, are capable of hunting bears, as they claim to have done in Issue #116 and actually demonstrate in Issue #185.

* SecretSecretKeeper: Issue #142, "Unmasked - Pt. 5", reveals that Fleming knew Ingrid's secret since the very beginning, but chose not to reveal this to her or anyone else.

* SoapOperaRapidAgingSyndrome: In Issue #156, "Cats", Ember the dragon is still dog-sized. In the very next issue, it appears that her dragon genes have kicked in, as she's now as tall as a regular human, as well as capable of speech. This is acknowledged shortly after in Issue #161, "The passing of time", with Ingrid [[BreakingTheFourthWall noting how few issues have passed since Ember's hatching]].

* CamWhore: Issue #113, "Donations", shows that E-Leech is a toned-down version, while contrasting her with a more stereotypical example.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Averted with humans, as both Ingrid herself and Amber the tavern owner are female, but Esther is the sole female leech among the group Ingrid raises.

* BackAlleyDoctor: Ingid is not a real doctor, having been expelled from medical school after her thesis on the benefits of leeches was rejected.

* TalkingAnimal: Ingrid's enhanced leeches are capable of this.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Esther, the female albino leech, is always seen wearing a bow.

* AnArmAndALeg: Igor, who lost his hand to a pig in his first appearance and is always seen with a pinned sleeve afterwards.

* ExpressiveMask: The plague doctor masks of Ingrid and Dr. Fleming, as well as Robert the Crusader's helmet, express a full range of emotion, and the faces underneath them have yet to be revealed.

* PlagueDoctor: Ingrid herself, of course, and her male supervisor/mentor Dr. Fleming.

* CassandraTruth: A RunningGag is a brief shot of someone (usually Ingrid) doing something unexpected, followed by the statement [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/ingrid-the-plague-doctor/secrets/viewer?title_no=329453&episode_no=3 "No one is ever going to believe you"]].

* ComicallyIneptHealing: Some of Ingrid's treatments have done more harm than good, such as [[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/ingrid-the-plague-doctor/hangover/viewer?title_no=329453&episode_no=12 treating a fever with her leeches and then forgetting to stop them from draining all the patient's blood]].
