History Characters / DCFutureState

* WarriorPrincess: Atlantic abolished the monarchy so she isn’t literally this, but people joke that she is.

* ArchEnemy: Solaris The Tyrant Sun has it out for Superman to the point Solaris will destroy hundreds of star systems just for a chance that Superman will eventually be among them. Doctor Morrow fancies himself as this as well, even proclaiming himself to be superior to Lex Luthor becuase Morrow believes he wants to destroy Superman for the ''[[MightMakesRight right]]'' reasons, but everyone falls short of Solaris in sheer scale.

* FamedInStory: To the point that her "[[BroughtToYouByTheLetterS WW]]" ChestInsignia has been adopted into very different clothing fashions of the otherwise isolationist tribe with Yara Flor belongs to.

* ArbitrarySkepticism: He offends Yara Flor, The Wonder Woman demigoddess when he tries to explain away the existence of gods to her while a sun god is in the middle of a race with The Tyrant Sun robot out to kill him. He ends up transitioning to NayTheist, still not preferring to call them "gods" but acknowledging these things have their own rules and properties unlike anything else he's encountered before.

* {{Reconstruction}}: He is basically the DC Comics equivalent of Marvel character The Sentry, having a very rigid system in place to decide who gets saved and when. Like The Sentry, Kent panics when his electronic alert or internal clock fail and put him off schedule, but unlike his Marvel counterpart Kent works ''harder'' so save as many people he can in his desperation rather than shutting down and becoming useless. He even suffers from a similar power fluxuation resulting from the conflict between Kuat and Solaris. In this case the reconstruction is that an ''ally'' is able to recognize and work around this limitation.

* {{Workaholic}}: He lives his entire life on schedule, counting every nanosecond is so habitual to him that it's being done on a celluar level. Yara Flor initially accuses him of not doing enough but quickly takes the opposite stance and tries to stress to him that the world does not need Superman THAT badly.

* PresentAbsence: While to the world at large Numbia and then Yara Flor are adequate replacements, Justice League Dark ends up suffering without her around, with Zatanna only continuing becuase Diana is still a source of inspiration to her.

* ArchEnemy: Parodied with Despera, a wannabe villain who wants to user her "lasso of existential terror" to "make Wonder Woman realize her true place in the universe". Flor is actually afraid of Despera's ''father'', but he never shows up.

* CharacterTics: She bites her lip when under stress.

** She's very verbally demeaning of Superman whenever they meet up, but the more times they talk the more it becomes clear that she's concerned about his physical and mental well being and isn't just putting him down out of meanness or dislike. She also is open in her disdain for The Justice League, but makes it clear she doesn't think they're actually an effective force for the change that is needed in the world. When she is on the team later she snaps at Jon specifically because the League is now helping to her standards and she doesn't want his soft feelings fixing what's clearly working.

* SmugSuper: She's stronger than everyone else, knows it and assumes she can do whatever she wants because of it. This is a problem early on, when the [[HaveYouSeenMyGod gods are MIA]] and poor [[NatureSpirit Caipora]] has to deal with Flor in their absence. As Yara encounters more powerful monsters, actively seeks out gods who prove more powerful than her, [[GatewaySeries gods gain more worshipers as her reputation spreads]], she meets other superheroes and fights super villains she becomes [[BreakTheHaughty slightly less smug.]] Especially after seeing the [[AMillionIsAStatistic consequences]] of [[GodIsFlawed a god having this attitude]].

* {{Reconstruction}}: He is basically the DC Comics equivalent of Marvel character The Sentry, having a very rigid system in place to decide who gets saved and when. Like The Sentry, Kent panics when his electronic alert or internal clock fail and put him off schedule, but unlike his Marvel counterpart Kent works ''harder'' so save as many people he can in his desperation rather than shutting down and becoming useless. He even suffers from a similar power fluxuation resulting from the conflict between Huat and Solaris. In this case the reconstruction is that an ''ally'' is able to recognize and work around this limitation.

This is a problem early on, when the [[HaveYouSeenMyGod gods are MIA]] and poor [[NatureSpirit Caipora]] has to deal with Flor in their absence. As Yara encounters more powerful monsters, actively seeks out gods who prove more powerful than her, [[GatewaySeries gods gain more worshipers as her reputation spreads]], she meets other superheroes and fights super villains she becomes [[BreakTheHaughty slightly less smug.]]

* HeadbuttingHeroes: Has the most issue with the 'strictly professional' aspect of the New Justice League (after Jon), which causes tension, especially with the new Batman. They also see no problem calling out their lack of powers.
* IntergenerationalFriendship:

* SquishyWizard: She has the most advanced technology of the league, aside from maybe Superman, and is the most reliant on technology, aside from maybe Batman. While she normally doesn't lean on it too heavily during day to day operations, her areas of expertise are psychology and criminal investigation. Without the ring she's the most physically vulnerable member of the league, but the ring lets her punch above her weight.

* IKnowYouIKnow: She knows she's vulerable to [[spoiler:telephathic assault]] and so far her only defense against it is just hoping the enemy isn't reading her deeply enough to realize she knows she's being messed with until she can identify and subdue them. [[spoiler:The will power of the Green Lantern Corps means it is risky for most to try and outright control her.]]

* SidekickGraduationsStick

* ProperlyParanoid: He doesn't trust anyone in (New)The Justice League, and only works with them because he has to. Once he learns [[spoiler:there are [[PsychicPowers telepaths]] and [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifters]]]] on Earth it literally takes the certain death of himself and every other human on Earth before he even considers working with them again, and he interogates them all for as long as he possibly can even with extinction on the horizon.

* ArbitrarySkepticism: He offends Yara Flor, The Wonder Woman demigoddess when he tries to explain away the existence of gods to her while a sun god is in the middle of a race with The Tyrant Sun out to kill him. He ends up transitioning to NayTheist, still not preferring to call them "gods" but acknoleding these things have their own rules and properties unlike anything else he's encountered before.

* ChronicHeroSyndrome: To the point it is killing him. While Jon can, more or less, handle virtually any mundane problem befalling anyone in his immediate area it gets a little harder when Midnighter keeps informing him of happenings around the world and aliens from otherworlds lean on him to solve their problems too. He absolutely cannot keep helping everyone while dealing with monsters and supervillains capable of killing him, but he keeps trying to anyone without giving his body enough time to recover from his more draining endeavors.

* {{Foil}}: {{Subverted|Trope}}: Jon Kent is lawful to a fault, slow tempered, highly educated, continuously studious, so organized his entire life is on schedule, kind and diplomatic. Yara Flor is any of these things, however they both end up having a positive influence on each other, as Jon helps Yara's transition from poaching criminal to global citizen along Yara helps Jon learn to live a more healthy, balanced life, and to trust others through delegation, to be less obsessive in his micromanaging.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Yara Flor initially criticising his eagerness to enter Earth into an alliance with alien worlds until she finds him sick and struggling to maintain his morning routine of stabilizing the orbit of a planet in a pocket dimension primarily populated by InsectoidAliens with FloatingLimbs. It's at this point she realizes he's going to kill himself through overwork and that he really is as dedicated to saving lives as he claims to be.

* HopeBringer: He routinely writes a message in the clouds reminding the city of Metropolis that Superman is there to help with a message in the clouds. This causes people to worry, however, when he doesn't deliver the sceduled message and is found buried in a street.

** Learning his lesson on trusting other people to do things, instead of insisting he do it all on his own, Jon has to teach a different kind of trust to the rest of The Justice League, which includes Yara Flor. The League are all distant, secretive and independent of one another, only coming together when absolutely necessary. Jon insists they could be doing a better job if they agreed to work together more closely, and are too paranoid about being stabbed in the back for their own good, but is repeatedly blown off until the mmistrusting league are forced to work together.

* BookDumb: To the point Flor doesn't even recognize gender identifiers in her own native langue while she is ''at least'' in her twenties. While BlindIdiotTranslation is often in play when Portuguese is used in Yara's comics, this ''is'' an intended gag as ''Superman'' corrects her during a ''Future State'' crossover. The same crossover has her successfully apply two sciences she ''just'' learned about against a GiantRobot advanced enough to duel with a (weakened)god, showing she's smart enough to understand cause and effect, but Flor still openly admits science and academics aren't her thing while doing this.

* SmugSuper: She's stronger than everyone else, knows it and assumes she can do whatever she wants because of it. This is a problem early on, when the [[HaveYouSeenMyGod gods are MIA]] and poor Caipora has to deal with Flor in their absence. As she encounters more powerful monsters, actively seeks out gods who prove more powerful than her, gods gain more worshipers because of her, she meets other superheroes and fights super villains she becomes [[BreakTheHaughty slightly less smug.]]

* ToBeLawfulOrGood: Possibly one of his biggest personal conflicts as a superhero beyond living up to the legacy of the Bat. Jace is incredibly empathetic to the plight of some of the more morally grey figures he faces on the streets of Gotham which makes him routinely reexamine his purpose as a vigilante. The most notable example of this is in the second issue, where Jace finds out [[spoiler: that the murder victim he was investigating was actually a [[PaedoHunt child predator]] who was killed by [[SympatheticMurderer the grieving parents of a young girl the vic was grooming and inevitably kidnapped.]] While Jace understands ''why'' the mother and father did what they did and explicitly believes the victim got what he deserved, the new Batman ultimately decides that he can't overlook the murder they committed and tries his best to convince them to turn themselves in to the GCPD so they can have their rightful day in court instead of being gunned down by the Magistrate.]]

* ArchEnemy: Parodied with Despera, a wannabe villain who wants to user her lasso of existential terror to make Wonder Woman realize her true place in the universe. Flor is actually afraid of Despera's ''father'' but he never shows up.
* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: Part of her growth as a hero involves learning to respect animals. Her first appearance in this continuity involves her ''poaching''. Like most poachers, she does have a reasonable goal, but no one is convinced that justifies the methods.

* IWorkAlone: She initially used to scoff at the idea of joining the Justice League, which led to Yara turning down every single one of Jon's invitations on the basis that the team's moral boundaries would get in the way of her doing what needs to be done. She's clearly outgrown this by the time of ''Future State: Justice League'' though, where she is a full-fledged member of the roster.

** Early on she's a jerk who will vandalize, steal, kidnap, maim and kill to get what she wants, but what she wants is what's best for her tribe. She's outright said to simply be the right person born at the right time rather than a hero of virtue. After the Amazon rain forest catches fire due to over farming Flor broadens her horizons to include the rest of Brazil and eventually the entire Earth in her concerns, becoming slightly less of a jerk in the process.
** She's very verbally demeaning of Superman whenever they meet up, but the more times they talk the more it becomes clear that she's concerned about his physical and mental well being and isn't just putting him down out of meanness or dislike.

* BatmanGambit: Successfully pulls on [[spoiler:an imposter]] Batman by [[spoiler:goading the fake into reading her mind, since the real Batman has no superpowers.]]
* EnemyScan: A feature of her ring that can extend to more than just "enemies", up to and including [[OnceMoreWithClarity clarifying blueprints]] or [[AlienSky detailing the makeup of an atomphere]].
* HardBoiledDetective: As opposed to the "policemen" usually appointed by The Green Lantern Corps, she's an investigator. While she's technically not a ''private'' detective and would take offense to being called "amateur" she is fiercely independent, persistent, and more than willing to shoot people while on cases.

[[caption-width-right:350: They need me. Gotham needs me. But can I take on the Magistrate without them?]]

* PsychoactivePowers: Her "contructs" become more elaborate as she becomes more confident.

* EnemyScan: A feature of her ring that can extend to more than just "enemies", up to and including [[OnceMoreWithClarity clarifying blueprints]] or [[AlienSky detailing makeup of an atomphere]].

* {{Reconstruction}}: He is basically the DC Comis equivalent of Marvel character The Sentry, having a very rigid system in place to decide who gets saved and when. Like The Sentry, Kent panics when his electronic altert or internal clock fail and put him off schedule, but unlike his Marvel counterpart Kent works ''harder'' so save as many people he can in his desperation rather than shutting down and becoming useless.

* CantCatchUp: Played with. Because Jon is only half-Kryptonian, he'll seemingly never be on the same level as Clark or Kara in terms of raw strength or speed. But this also means he's nowhere near as vulnerable to Kryptonite or elements similarly targeted at Kryptonians and can even straight up NoSell direct attacks from them.

* BookDumb: To the point Flor doesn't even recognize gendered conjugation in her own native langue while she's still in her twenties. While BlindIdiotTranslation is often in play when Portuguese is used in Yara's comics, this ''is'' an intended gag as ''Superman'' corrects her during a ''Future State'' crossover. The same crossover has her successfully apply two sciences she ''just'' learned about against a GiantRobot advanced enough to duel with a (weakened)god, showing she's smart enough to understand cause and effect, but Floor still openly admits science and academics aren't her thing while doing this.

** Early on she's jerk who will vandalize, steal, kidnap, maim and kill to get what she wants, but what she wants is what's best for her tribe. She's outright said to simply be the right person born at the right time rather than a hero of virute. After the Amazon Rainforst catches fire due to overfarming Flor broadens her horizons to include the rest of Brazil and eventually the entire Earth in her concerns, becoming slightly less of a jerk in the process.

* ManOnFire: Like Diana, she can endure blazing heat. Unlike Diana, Yara's "sisterhood with fire" doesn't extend to her hair, once having nearly all of it burnt off in a prank.

* SecretIdentity: She initially doesn't have one, openly introducing herself as "Yara Flor, The Wonder Woman." ''Future State:Superman/Wonder Woman'' imply she has taken one on, and ''Future State: Justice League'' outright state she now has one, but we are never shown or told what it is beyond a shot of Flor hastely throwing a jacket over her costume, which is nothing more than a uniform everyone in her tribe wears.

* ManOnFire: Like Diana, she can endire blazing heat. Unlike Diana, Yara's "sisterhood with fire" doesn't extend to her hair, once having nearly all of it burnt off in a prank.

* BloodKnight: She relishes in a good fight far more than her predecessors.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Her “Aqualass” costume is barefoot, but as Aquawoman she has tights and boots, probably to hide her artificial leg.

* MeddlingParents: When she calls Arthur and Mera to talk about her day they immediately offer to come home and help her, and her response suggests that’s their go to move for every little problem she has. To be fair she did straight up disappear for six years, so it’s understandable they’d be worried about her.

* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Have dark skin and white hair.
