History Characters / ArrowverseMickRory

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: He's nowhere near as unstable as he was in his appearances on The Flash, even in the episodes where Mick is at his most dangerous. He also sounds very different, having become more of a GutturalGrowler between The Flash and Legends.

* GutturalGrowler: In notable contrast to Snart's smooth baritone, Mick has a very deep and rough voice, possibly due to smoke inhalation, though a Season 3 episode suggests it might be inherited.

* TheFriendNoOneLikes: Tends to get this a lot with the Legends as the team constantly mocks him and sometimes treats him as an afterthought when they go on missions. The other Legends frequently [[SilentSnarker eyeroll]] or ignore the outlandish things he says. This eventually gets {{deconstructed}} in "The Fellowship Of The Spear" when Mick finally has enough of the Team constantly distrusting him and treating him like a thug and decides to join the Legion Of Doom in order to use the SpearOfDestiny to rewrite his tragic past. This part of his character fades away, and while some new team members still treat him this way, those who spend enough time with him realise that for all his drinking, insubordination, and lazing around, he's a dedicated and competent her.

* {{Determinator}}: Mick has very strong will power when the time comes.

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: He can't come to terms with the idea that Snart may actually be trying to do a good thing for its own sake, or call the Legends his team when Rory says ''they'' were a team. Snart has to flat out say "people change", and it ''still'' doesn't seem to kick in any more than for him to assume it a betrayal by Snart.

* EvilSoundsDeep: As part of the contrast to Snart, Mick has a very rough, gravelly deep voice in comparison to Snart's smoother baritone. Possibly due to smoke inhalation.

* TheFriendNoOneLikes: Tends to get this a lot with the Legends as the team constantly mocks him and sometimes treats him as an afterthought when they go on missions. The other Legends frequently [[SilentSnarker eyeroll]] or ignore the outlandish things he says. This eventually gets {{deconstructed}} in "The Fellowship Of The Spear" when Mick finally has enough of the Team constantly distrusting him and treating him like a thug and decides to join the Legion Of Doom in order to use the SpearOfDestiny to rewrite his tragic past. This part of his character fades away, and while some new team members still treat him this way, those who spend enoguh time with him realise that for all his drinking, insubordination, and lazing around, he's a dedicated and competent her.

* GeniusDitz: He's typically the butt of DumbMuscle jokes, but he is smart enough to memorize the architecture of his Heat Gun and regularly repair it. Season 3 also reveals he's has HiddenDepths and is secretly an acclaimed author of an erotic novel.

* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Mick has a habit of going through this. Upon being introduced on ''Series/{{The Flash|2014}}'', he is a straight out criminal and [[CardCarryingVillain proud to show it]]. When he gets recruited to join the Legends, he is a NominalHero with shades of NobleDemon. Then he turns full-out evil again after betraying the team and becoming Chronos. The Legends manage to capture and reform him, where he has [[CharacterDevelopment evidently matured]] and [[TookALevelInKindness becomes a much better person]]. Then when Snart joins the Legion of Doom, Mick reluctantly betrays the Legends and switches to the villains' side with his partner, but soon comes to regret it and helps the Legends undo the Legion's damage to reality.

* IHatePastMe: He meets his teenaged self from just after he burnt his house down and killed his family. Mick absolutely resents his younger self and blames him for the accident, falling in love with his father's lighter fluid. However he does eventually make peace with him, acknowledging that it isn't his fault. "Welcome to the Jungle" and "Necromancing the Stone" reveal that he isn't very fond of himself overall.

* IconicSequelCharacter: While he's introduced midway during ''Series/TheFlash2014'' Season One, he does not appear in the Arrowverse until it's third year.

* LastNameBasis: Rip and the rest of his team sans [[FirstNameBasis Snart]] addresses him this way in the first season, although this is eventually phased out.

** He seems to grow out of this after his team up with [=LoD=]!Snart showed him what their friendship was really like before joining the Legends and when [[AlternateSelf Leo]] joined the team he inverted this with the two not forming a friendship until Leo stopped using him as a stand in for his dead friend, of course there's still his instant obsession with [[DefrostingIceQueen Ki]][[EvilISCool ll]][[DeadpanSnarker er]] [[HiddenHeartOfGold Fro]][[KillItWithIce st.]]

* RunningGag: In each of the crossover events, he develops a one sided attraction to the newcomer superheroine; first Supergirl, then Killer Frost, much to their horror and annoyance respectively.

* SleepsInTheNude: He likes to sleep in this manner. In the season 3 episode "Necromancing the Stone", Wally discovers this the hard way when he gets Mick out of bed for a briefing.

* TwoFirstNames: Per the Creator/DCComics norm.

* DemotedToComicRelief: After being a major character with his own arc is Seasons 1 and 2, Season 3 onward has his BookDumb tendencies becoming far more pronounced, with him only really sticking around for comedy purposes.

* BadassBaritone: He has probably the deepest voice in the main ''Legends'' cast and is most definitely the sort of guy you want on your side in a fight.

* BadassBaritone: The already deep voiced Mick Rory gets an even deeper voice when he's armored up.
