History Characters / DressUpTimePrincess

* BigBad: Chapur, being the one who started the coup in revenge for his father.

* BadCopIncompetentCop: The police are impotent or just plain incompetent where they're not actively corrupt. The most helpful officer Elizabeth encounters works as an information broker on the side, and the assistance he provides is entirely through this side gig rather than in any official police capacity.
* BedlamHouse: The Metropolitan Hospital for the mentally ill is a filthy hellhole where the inmates are routinely abused by the staff. Elizabeth writes an exposé on the conditions there at the beginning of the story, kicking off the plot when her article touches a little too close to secrets that some powerful people would prefer stay buried.
* BigBad: Councilman Harris for the Edmund and Diane routes, Juliano for the Vittorio route.
* TheBigRottenApple: Prohibition-Era New York is shown as rife with crime and corruption. The Mafia has influence within the city government and the nascent worker's rights movement, the authorities who aren't working with the mob are mostly incompetent, and the journalists of the time are more concerned with sensationalizing the news to sell papers than with reporting the truth. Meanwhile, decent people struggle to make ends meet and rarely manage to obtain justice for the wrongs done to them by the more powerful.
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: The good ending for Diane's route. While Harris is brought to justice, the fallout from the case ultimately costs Elizabeth her friendship with Charlotte, who admits herself into an insane asylum soon after.]]
* CorruptPolitician: City councilman Steven Harris, whose philanthropic public image conceals ties to the nastier end of the Mafia and use of his charitable foundation as a front for very bad things.
* DaEditor: Elizabeth's first boss at the Sun is one of these, valuing sensationalism over facts, constantly berating his staff give him good sales and turning on his star reporters the second they're no longer useful to the paper. Her second boss, Mr. Kane, is the exact opposite of this, committing deeply to ethical reporting and supporting his staff.
* DenOfIniquity: The Sparrow Room, a Mafia-run nightclub where Elizabeth can go undercover as a dancer to try and get close to Juliano. Many of the dancers are forced to work there to pay off debts incurred by boyfriends, with the threat of worse hanging over them if they don't cooperate.
* GoldenEnding: [[spoiler: If players obtains all good endings from the three routes, a bonus ending can be obtained where Elizabeth and Edmund ultimately takes down the entire human trafficking ring together, earning them a Pulitzer Prize.]]
* GreaterScopeVillain: [[spoiler: Tommany Hall, the organization behind the human trafficking ring.]]
* HeKnowsTooMuch: [[spoiler: Before Councilman Harris could stand trial, his associates kill him for what he knows.]]
* HiddenWeapons: Late in Vittorio's path, Elizabeth resorts to smuggling a gun to Juliano's birthday dinner by hiding it in her garter. She's doing it again in the "Mafia Couple" ending CG.
* IntrepidReporter: Elizabeth Colvin, the heroine of "Gotham Memoirs." Most of the story is driven by Liz's inability to back down once she realizes she's on the trail of a story someone's been trying to cover up.
* TheMafia: As one might expect from the period setting, the ''cosa nostra'' is all over the dirt that Elizabeth uncovers when she starts digging into Councilman Harris and the Taylors. Several major characters are either made men or in bed with the Mafia, and one possible story branch sees Liz teaming up with principled mob boss Vittorio Puzo to take down Vittorio's rival Francesco Juliano and his human trafficking business.
* NeighborhoodFriendlyGangsters: Vittorio Puzo, described in his companion profile as "a man of integrity," and his crew. Vittorio stands in direct opposition to Francesco Juliano, who seeks to expand the drug trade in New York and makes his biggest profits off of forced prostitution and human trafficking - aside from a couple of gunfights instigated by Juliano and his men, the only illegal activity Vittorio's people are shown engaging in on-screen appears to involve bootleg alcohol.
* NeverSuicide: [[spoiler: After Councilman Harris supposedly commits suicide before his trial, Elizabeth immediately suspects foul play involved. She's right.]]
* NonIdleRich: Edmund Davis is wealthy enough to indulge in a playboy lifestyle, but not only does he own the Gotham Times and keep it running with his personal funds so that it can maintain a higher standard of journalistic integrity instead of resorting to sensationalism to drive sales like most of the rest of New York's newspapers, he works for his own newspaper as a reporter.
* StoryBranching: While present in other stories, this book has the most elaborate one as it has three different branches of story if Elizabeth asks either Vittorio, Edmund, or Diane for help in pursuing the truth.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: No explanation is provided for why Vittorio's sister Stella is an inmate at the mental hospital, or whether or not she's still there after Elizabeth's article exposing the hospital's abuses is published.

* AndTheAdventureContinues: [[spoiler: Vane's ending has him present a new treasure map to Cordelia as they prepare to set out for new adventures.]]
* ArchnemesisDad: [[spoiler: Hawke for Vane.]]
* ArcWords: "You are the captain of your destiny."
