Basic Trope: A character becomes more cynical throughout the series, due to horrible things happening to them and those around them.
* Straight: Jade starts as a Wide-Eyed Idealist, but during her adventures through the Crapsack World she lives in, she becomes much more cynical.
* Exaggerated: Jade starts out as The Pollyanna, but then something goes wrong and immediately becomes The Snark Knight (or even a Nietzsche Wannabe).
* Justified: Jade has no idea what she's getting herself into at the beginning, so when she sees the horrible things she has to do and have happen to her/those around her, she becomes more hardened and cynical.
* Inverted: Jade starts off as a Grumpy Bear but as time goes on she accepts that the world is far more idealistic than she gave it credit for.
