A woman from the African village of Zambesi who inherited one of the village's six magical amulets, the Spirit Totem, which enables her to tap into the spirits of animals and wield their abilities. With the totem, she became the guardian of the village and later eventually recruited into the Justice Society of America. After the JSA leader Rex Tyler is killed by Eobard Thawne, Amaya joins the Legends to take revenge against Eobard. The name "Vixen" is a LegacyCharacter; while Amaya is the Vixen of TheForties, the title is currently held by Mari [=McCabe=], one of her granddaughters.\\\

* FatalFlaw: Rip is used to working on his own initiative and having the final say on what actions needs to be taken. Fitting, as he was trained as [[TimePolice a Time Master,]] usually working solo to resolve situations. Unfortunately this leads to the [[MyWayOrTheHighway side-effect of Rip being used to missions and objectives being resolved according to his intent]]. Not suitable for someone who is leading a team, which is why he left at the end of Season Two as [[TheLancer Sara had easily taken over the role]]. Unfortunately this came back to bite him in the ass hard in Season Three. When Sara refused to risk Damien Darhk’s resurrection in order to trap Mallus, he betrayed her trust, locking down the Waverider and allowing Darhk to be resurrected to draw Mallus out. End result, multiple Time Bureau Agents are dead, Darhk escapes alongside his daughter, and Mallus gains a valuable asset. Thus, despite Rip being right regarding the threat of Mallus, [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome he's destroyed any trust or goodwill he had from both the Legends and the Time Bureau, causing ''neither'' to act on it]].

* DoctorWhomage: While the comics version of Rip Hunter and the Time Masters debuted in DC comics years before years before ''Doctor Who'' debuted on TV and more than a ''decade'' before the British series introduced the Time Lords to its narrative. The Arrowverse version of Rip Hunter borrows ''heavily'' from The Doctor more than his namesake did. Aside from being played by a former actor from the series, Rip shares the Doctor's British accent, love of {{Badass Longcoat}}s, having a CoolShip that travels through time (bonus points of having a female AI who he has a ShipTease with), and being a BadassNormal who mostly relies on gadgets and wits.

* IntergenerationalFriendship: Technically, as he is centuries younger than the other Legends and Jonah Hex. Or so it seems. When the team first visit the Refuge he was raised in, he tells them that the Time Masters fill their ranks with "orphans pulled from throughout the course of history" and later in the episode he describes his younger self as "a cut-purse since the age of five". "Cut-purse" seems quite an anachronistic term for a native of the 22nd Century to use, and it's [[OlderThanSteam used in]] [[Theatre/HenryV Shakespeare]]. So it's more than possible that Rip (or rather [[GivenNameReveal Michael]]) was born centuries ''before'' the other legends or even Jonah Hex.
