At Raphtalia's angriest, she goes onto jam her knife multiple times into Mouse's neck, unaware of the bloodshed being caused, until finding out Mouse had already died.
** Consevatie. Having to spend her time as a slave of him, Raphtalia developed a level of contempt and fear that causes her to see him as a bigger monster than any bandit who followed the Bitch Lord. His inability to empathize with anyone, and extreme egotism ends up being a slaveowner even worst than her previous one. Once out of Consevatie's clutches, Raphtalia wants nothing more than to expose the crimes he committed and be the one that personally tortures him for all his senseless cruelty.

** From the start of her introduction, Raphtalia's timid and shy personality brings her fear when put in a situation where she has to fight or kill dangerous threats. Slowly through time, Raphtalia's bravery strengthens, enabling her to more personally confront threats such as a Hell Hound and Mouse in a direct battle.
** In case anything were to go wrong, or if she is left out of a battle her party is involved in, Raphtalia undergoes a HeroicSelfDeprecation believing herself to be TheLoad that failed to do anything when problems occur.

By placing the blame on Consevatie, [[TeachHimAnger Raphtalia is able to learn how to blame others for the problems caused]], rather than sulk in her own despair doing nothing.
