Miraculous

Like Hawk Moth
As Hawk Moth, his eyes are purple, and he wears dark pants and a dark purple shirt with a light purple bow shaped like a butterfly with a purple gem in the center. He also wears black gloves, and his face is hidden by a large, light gray mask. Whenever he controls someone akumatized, a bright pink butterfly-shaped outline appears in front of his face and around his eyes, helping him establish contact with the akuma victim. After transforming into Scarlet Hawk Moth, the colors of his suit changed to a predominantly scarlet color; the bright pink butterfly-shaped outline also changed color.

As Hawk Moth, Gabi is cunning and determined. His goal is to obtain the Miraculouses, which will grant him the great power needed to fulfill his cherished desire. Hawk Moth doesn't care that innocent people suffer because of his actions, which demonstrates his indifference. He carefully and skillfully chooses his victims, convincing people that he cares about their problems and therefore gives them the strength to help them settle things. When things don't go smoothly, Hawk Moth easily loses his temper: he threatens Ladybug, Cat Noir, and even his victims. After each defeat, Hawk Moth vows revenge. After his death and rebirth, he has become softer, repenting of his actions and deeds.

Like a Monarch
As the Monarch, he wears dark pants and a black shirt with purple sleeves featuring multicolored crystals and the Fox, Mouse, Dragon, and Dog talismans. He also wears black gloves, over which he wears the Turtle, Tiger, Snake, and Rooster talismans. His face has turned purple, his mask has become smaller, and on his head are the Horse, Monkey, Ox, and Bee talismans. A butterfly talisman has also appeared on his stomach, and a pocket for the Rabbit talisman has appeared on his left side. Each time he fuses a kwami, a purple Weapon appears on his back.

Like a Monarch (with rings)
In his new look with the remolded talismans, the Monarch wears a purple jacket with purple pants. He wears black gloves with rings over them. He also wears a purple helmet reminiscent of Hawk Moth's, has light purple skin, and blue eyes.
Like the Night Tormentor
In his Night Tormentor form, he is similar to the Collector version, although this is a variation of him, in his form he has light-medium purple skin, gray eyes, he also wears pink glasses, his hair is dyed blue similar to purple, his clothes are shiny, his tie is light-medium purple, his jacket is dyed the same color as his hair, and his jacket is dark purple similar to purple, he wears pants the same color as the jacket with a shiny pink stripe and shoes the same color as the stripe, he also has pink hands and a pink book or tablet.

Like MonarBug
As Monarchbug, he resembles his Dark Monarch counterpart, except his helmet and chestplate are now black. His eyes are also purple with red pupils, and his suit is red with black spots.

Like Gabriel Agreste
Gabriel has slicked-back blond hair and dark blue eyes. He wears black glasses, a white jacket, red pants, and a red-and-white striped tie, which conceals his Miraculous.
As a Collector
As the Collector, he wears a black jumpsuit with elbow-length sleeves and matching shoes with white heels and black stripes. His skin is light purple, and his eyes are red.

Like a Butterfly
As Moth, his appearance is similar to Hawk Moth's, but his costume is given a collar, his shirt is shorter, and a large purple monocle is added to his left eye, with a peacock talisman also added underneath his butterfly brooch.

Like Kotylok
As Shadow Noir, he wears a black Cat Noir suit. He has the Butterfly and Peacock Gems on his chest and a purple teardrop with two gray wings extending from it. His mask is like his regular Hawk Moth counterpart, but it's black with cat ears. His eyes are purple, a purple teardrop appears on his forehead, and his tail is a gray belt tipped with a peacock feather.

Essentially, Ladybug is Marinette, so her character traits are preserved, but some of them are either enhanced or suppressed.

Thus, clumsiness practically disappears, because under the pressure of extremely dangerous situations (direct confrontation with supervillains, saving others, enormous responsibility, etc.), doubts simply recede into the background, as there is absolutely no time for them. Marinette becomes more self-confident, and her intelligence and resourcefulness become absolutely evident. Wit and daring also emerge, and leadership qualities, true courage, resilience, and fortitude emerge.

And if Ladybug suddenly despairs (which happens rarely), Cat Noir always supports her, and this is enough to revive hope and optimism in her.

Ladybug strives to save everyone without exception: civilians, those who have been akumatized, and even those she absolutely does not like, and in the final battle, she even tries to reach out to the Monarch.

Ladybug knows she's incredibly powerful and popular, but she doesn't let it get to her head. She takes her superpowers seriously—and the superpowers of her partner, Cat Noir, and her Superhero Team just as seriously. Ladybug adheres to the credo of "You mustn't use your heroic powers for personal gain," but she still breaks it occasionally (though nothing serious).

Ladybug doesn't reveal her identity because it would put not only herself but also anyone she tells in danger. However, Marinette finally confides in her best friend Alya ("The Mystery Gang") because she simply can't keep lying to her. Besides, like everyone else, she needs someone to share her worries with and who can support her; and, well, cover for her if necessary.

However, sometimes Ladybug gets carried away. She can be overconfident, which usually leads to bad consequences, and sometimes confuses pride with arrogance. But eventually, she admits her mistakes and tries to fix everything.

Marinette loves fashion and has an exceptional talent for clothing design. When she was six years old, she dreamed of being a fairy seamstress ("Dreamer").

Marinette loves video games, especially Ultimate Mecha Strike III.

However, Marinette isn't perfect. Her kindness and patience have their limits, and she can be impulsive and irrational. For example, when Chloé Bourgeois truly pissed Ladybug off, she refused to continue defending her from the supervillain and simply left ("Evilistrator"). Or when she was accused of stealing a bracelet, Marinette, despite being innocent, immediately accused others of it—and yet she says she doesn't call people thieves without proof ("Roger Cop"). Marinette also can't stand the thoroughly deceitful Lila Rossi, who also occasionally frames her.

Marinette is in love with Adrien Agreste. For a long time, she was truly obsessed with him: her entire wall is covered in his photos, and she even knows his schedule for three years. Fortunately, she's grown out of it. However, her love for Adrien still sometimes clouds her vision: then she puts his happiness above all else and is willing to do anything for him, forgetting her own feelings and the feelings of others.

For a while, Marinette thought she had romantic feelings for Luca Couffaine, but she realized they were nothing more than friendship. Furthermore, their breakup was influenced by her double life: Marinette couldn't balance her relationship with saving Paris.

Do you know why I broke up with Luka? Not because I don't like him. He's amazing! But because there's something I can't tell him. And do you know why I push Adrien away? For the same reason! You're right: I have secrets, and I lie. All the time! I lie to my friends, my parents, I lie to everyone! And the worst part is, I just can't do anything else!
MARINETTE, "THE GANG OF MYSTERIES"

Marinette hides her identity as Ladybug because the knowledge would put her in danger. For the same reason, not only herself, but also anyone she tells. However, she still admits to being her best friend.

Like Marinette
Marinette is a sweet, modest girl, honest and fair. She's rather clumsy, but also cheerful, happy, and generous. Marinette is always ready to help, and she doesn't know how to say no. She's selfless, even to a fault: she puts the feelings and interests of others above her own, sometimes to her own detriment.

According to Clara Nightingale, Marinette has a pure heart.

Marinette is a bit of a klutz, especially around her lover, Adrien. However, she adapts quickly and, in serious moments when her self-doubt takes a back seat, displays remarkable agility. She's quite flexible and remarkably resilient: she can run long distances without stopping, go for long periods without sleep, and juggle multiple tasks, both back-to-back and simultaneously. She can also be stealthy—for example, she often sneaks up on others silently. She also has very good reflexes, something Adrien notices when he teaches her fencing ("Riposte").
Marinette is very smart and resourceful. For example, she signed her hat, which exposed Chloé, who had stolen her design ("Monsieur Dove"); and also, in case anyone wanted to find out Ladybug's identity, Marinette came up with an entire quest that would eventually lead to her home address instead of her own.
