* AdaptationalAttractiveness: In accordance with his demonic poweers bieng AdaptedOut, this version looks like a normal, reasonably handsome human compared to his comics self.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: As chummy as he was with Oliver, he's still a member of a criminal organization. Sooner or later, their two paths had to diverge.

** After tracking him down, Manchester terrorizes and tries to murder [[BigBad Ben Lockwood]].

!!! '''Portrayed By:''' Frederick Schmidt

* GeniusBruiser: While hired for their brute force, they are acutally quite smart and stay ahead of Team Arrow for a good part of the episode.

!'''The Inverse Society'''

[[folder:In General]]
A religious/spiritual cult, under the leadership of Ally Allston.
----
* ChurchOfHappyology: It's hard not to think about a certain real-life cult.
* {{Cult}}: Described as such by Lois, and judging by their rituals, she isn't wrong.

[[folder:Ally Allston]]
!!Ally Allston
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ally_allston.png]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Portrayed By:''' Rya Kihlstedt, Amber Taylor (child)
!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Series/SupermanAndLois''

A shady woman who leads the Inverse Society.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: Various incarnations of the Parasite, including Alexandra Allston, are undoubtedly powerhouses in the comics, which naturally comes with the territory when you're a Superman villain. However, none of them have ever shown the sheer power to fuse two worlds together.
* AlliterativeName: '''A'''lly '''A'''llston.
* ArchEnemy: She is a very personal enemy for Lois, due to Lucy having fallen into her cult and almost died because of it.
* BigBadEnsemble: Lois's primary antagonist for season 2, contrasting Bizarro Superman being Clark's primary foe. [[spoiler: Becomes the sole BigBad after Bizarro is killed]].
* BitchInSheepsClothing: At first, she seems like a friendly group therapy counselor, but underneath that surface, she's a very manipulative woman.
* FlyingBrick: [[spoiler: She gains these powers after merging with her alternate self, [[ComboPlatterPowers in addition to]] being a PowerParasite]].
* FourEyesZeroSoul: She wears glasses, but is anything but friendly.
* FreudianExcuse: When she and her doppelganger are incarcerated, Ally admits that her lust for power was just overcompensation for her own loneliness and feeling of incompletion.
* GodhoodSeeker: This seems to be her goal at the end of the day--merge with her alternate self from the Bizarro world to gain immense god-like abilities, and then merge both universes together to reign over both worlds as its god.
* HateSink: She is very [[ManipulativeBastard manipulative]] and seeks to ruin Lois by turning her sister Lucy against her. And this is just the beginning of her CharacterArc. She only gets more and more monstrous as the season progresses and we find out she seeks to threaten a multiversal apocalypse to reign over what remains as its god, killing any and all who get in her way.
* {{Mundanger}}: In a sci-fi series with aliens and multiple dimensions, her villainy at first appears to have none of these elements--she's just a cult leader, a danger people could encounter in RealLife that's just as or even more insidious than those things. That being said, her name means she's based on the comics villain "Parasite", who is very much ''not'' a {{mundanger}}. Seemingly ultimately [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] as of [[Recap/SupermanAndLoisS2E5GirlYoullBeAWomanSoon "Girl... You'll Be a Woman, Soon"]]; while her backstory, influence and powers still aren't fully revealed, it's clear there are aspects of her associated with supernatural/sci-fi elements involving multiple dimensions, as [[WellIntentionedExtremist Bizarro]] believes she needs to be stopped. [[spoiler: Once she and her Bizarro counterpart get ahold of their pendants and fuse with each other they gain outright superpowers]].
* MythologyGag: Lois calls her a "Parasite", referencing the Superman foe of the same name. [[spoiler: She later gains genuine PowerParasite superpowers (in addition to FlyingBrick powers as well)]].
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: A cult leader named Ally Allston? It's hard not to be reminded of Creator/AllisonMack, who was best known for playing Chole Sullivan on ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' before she was exposed and arrested as a member of the NXIVM cult for human trafficking.
* SequelAdaptationIconicVillain: [[ZigZaggedTrope Of a sort]]. Compared to Morgan Edge in the first season, Parasite is one of Superman's more recognizable rogues alongside Bizarro. On the other hand, Allston isn't one of the better known incarnations of Parasite to the general public and she notably never takes on the more monstrous purple comic book appearance Parasite is known for in the entire second season.
* SlippingAMickey: Ally normally pitches this as HigherUnderstandingThroughDrugs to her followers who aren't concerned about taking illegal hallucinogens. But if she is unsure whether or not somebody she wants on her side will voluntarily take the drug cocktail that causes visions of the Inverse World (and usually makes them fanatically loyal to her), then she won't hesitate to offer them a drink that already contains it.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: She notably never takes on the inhuman purple look her comic book counterpart possesses and still looks fully human, even when she gains greater power.

[[folder:Lucy Lane]]
!!Lucy Lane
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lucynew.jpg]]
!!! '''Species:''' Human
!!! '''First Appearance:''' "[[Recap/SupermanAndLoisS2E4TheInverseMethod The Inverse Method]]" (''Superman and Lois'' 2x4)
!!! '''Appearances:''' ''Series/SupermanAndLois''

Lois Lane's younger sister, who is estranged from her sister and who has joined the Inverse Society, almost dying due to a drug overdose years ago.

-> see Characters/SupermanFilmSeries for the Earth-96 character who bears her name and background
-> see Characters/SmallvilleLanes for the Earth-167 character who bears her name and background
-> see Characters/ArrowverseUSMilitary for her Earth-38 self.
----
* AlliterativeName: '''L'''ucy '''L'''ane.
* CoolAunt: Despite her conflict with Lois, she adores Jonathan and Jordan.
* FatalFlaw: She's got a few that wreak havoc on her life and her relations with others, especially her sister.
** [[CantTakeCriticism Defensiveness]]. A big part of why she's so testy with Lois is that when her sister tries bringing up her concerns Lucy tends to dig her heels in and push back, unwilling to actually critically look at things just because she doesn't like what she's hearing. She constantly twists Lois's words around to make her sister seem harsher than she's actually being and refuses to hear a bad word about Ally, defending and justifying the cult leader's outright illegal actions.
** Vindictiveness. Lucy just can not let things slide when she feels slighted, wanting to get back at whomever she blames. She point blank blames Lois, who was eight years old at the time, for their mother leaving and unloads that on her sister as a manipultation tactic. During Sam's attempt at getting them to reconcile, Lois avoids bringing up anything about Ally or the Inverse Society but Lucy brings it up in an effort to make Lois admit she was wrong. When Lois refuses to admit she was wrong about Ally, given the woman's illegal involuntary dosing of Chrissy, Lucy storms off over not getting what she wanted out of the exchange but not after some petty insults.
** As Lois puts it Lucy has always tended to latch onto people who seem to have all the answers, leaving her as a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter who doesn't think critically about things when red flags pop up.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Is completely taken in by Ally Allston pretending to be a benevolent leader, despite almost losing her life due to an overdose of drugs Ally had her take years ago.
* JerkassToOne: She’s friendly to everyone except Lois.
* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:She never faces any comeuppance for trying to destroy her sister's reputation, drugging her father, almost getting her brother-in-law killed and endangering the lives of her newphews.]]
* MisplacedRetribution: Lucy unfairly places the blame of their mother leaving the family on Lois, who was only eight years old at the time.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: It’s not until she sees Ally [[spoiler: ''nearly kill her father and Superman'']] that she even begins to realize she was following the wrong person.
* PsychologicalProjection: In "Tried and True" she accuses Lois of "[[NeverMyFault refusing to be wrong]]", something that applies far more to Lucy herself.
* TheResenter: A lot of her issues with Lois come down to Lois having been very successful in life. When Lucy decides to leave after staying with Lois and her family for a while, she openly states that she cannot stand to look at Lois's happy life, successful career, marriage and children. This is on top of her childhood grievances towards Lois. Ally expertly uses this to get to Lucy as soon as she mentions being Lois Lane's sister, pretending sympathy for what it must be like living in Lois Lane's shadow.
* SecretlySelfish: While Lucy claims her issues with Lois are morally based, it's implied that she's actually lashing out at Lois out of resentment.
** In "Tried and True" Lois doesn't bring up anything about Ally or the Inverse Society but Lucy does bring it up, leading to another bitter argument. While it seems like Lucy is trying to defend her friend she storms off after accusing Lois of "refusing to be wrong", implying that forcing Lois to admit she was wrong was her reason for bringing it up rather than loyalty.
* TraumaCongaLine: Going through one of these is why she fell in with Ally. She lost her job and her fiancé and had to move in with Lois for an unclear amount of time, things which clearly took a toll on her emotionally.
[[/folder]]

* EvenEvilHasStandards: A target of this by the Suicide Squad in general, who are disgusted by him. Especially noteworthy is Ravan Nassar, who himself was the head of the Kahndaqian military. Even Ra's al Ghul is happy to let Mesi have her revenge on him.

-> see Characters/ArrowverseUSMilitary for her Pre-Crisis self.

* AmbiguousSituation: It's unclear due to the changes in her history whether she still befriended Kara in the new universe. She mentions a fiance, but it may or may not be James.

* HotScientist: A TallDarkAndHandsome scientist.

* {{Mundanger}}: In a sci-fi series with aliens and multiple dimensions, her villainy at first appears to have none of these elements--she's just a cult leader, a danger people could encounter in real life that's just as or even more insidious than those things. That being said, her name means she's based on the comics villain "Parasite", who is very much ''not'' a {{mundanger}}. Seemingly ultimately [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] as of [[Recap/SupermanAndLoisS2E5GirlYoullBeAWomanSoon "Girl... You'll Be a Woman, Soon"]]; while her backstory, influence and powers still aren't fully revealed, it's clear there are aspects of her associated with supernatural/sci-fi elements involving multiple dimensions, as [[WellIntentionedExtremist Bizarro]] believes she needs to be stopped. [[spoiler: Once she and her Bizarro counterpart get ahold of their pendants and fuse with each other they gain outright superpowers]].

* FreudianExcuse: When she and her doppelganger are incarcerated, Ally admits that her lust for power was just overcompensation for her own depression.

* AdaptedOut: His comic counterpart had demonic powers which never made it into the show.

A mercenary group specializing in precisioin demolition of structures. They are hired by H.I.V.E. to kill Oliver Queen during his mayoral debate with Dahrk's wife.

* WeaponOfChoice:
** Rosie uses a [[NailEm nail-gun]] to fire nails with extreme precision.
** Hardhat switches between an axe and a knife.
** Jackhammer makes use of a sledghammer.

* OneManArmy: Despite being the only human in the Elite, has been known to cut through multiple opponents either barehanded or with [[WeaponOfChoice his favorite bat if need be.]]

* EvilCounterpart: She uses trick darts to fight, making her one to the archers of Team Arrow who use TrickArrows.

The only male member of the Longbow Hunters, who uses a bladed shield as his WeaponOfChoice.

The third member of the Longbow Hunters, who uses a knife as her WeaponOfChoice and also uses a sound dampener.

* NonIndicativeName: None of them use longbows whatsoever.

A member of the Longbow Hunters, who uses a variety of trick darts as her WeaponOfChoice.

* DropTheHammer: Jackhammer's WeaponOfChoice is a sledgehammer.

* AnAxeToGrind: Hardhat primarily fights with an axe.

* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed, but there's no indication that he forces his soldiers to go through the burning ritual he created to keep them loyal, nor is there any indication that his workforce is made up of trafficked slaves.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Comic Dante had no qualms about forcing kids into his organization or threatening people's families to make people cooperate; this version makes clear his disdain for the Bertinelli's using kids, and also dislikes people fleeing familial responsibilities out of moral obligations.
* AdaptationalWimp: His power over the organization is neutered compared to the comics. There, Dante was the unquestioned leader of the Ninth Circle and could successfully cow Shado into working for him with nothing but threats, and Emiko was nothing more than a pawn - even when the Ninth Circle was effectively destroyed, he still held unquestionable power. Here, their positions are reversed, so Emiko is the true leader and Dante's her patsy.
