A friend of Tony Stark how has his own PoweredArmor.

[[folder:Fitz]]

[[folder:Simmons]]

Simmons's replacement as the genetics expert on Team Coulson. Is also a Graveyard survivor that was mutated by the experiments there. After being cured, she experimented on herself, resulting in her current form.

* DoAnythingRobot: Averted. His robot chassis is built for superior strength and speed and little else, with the only firepower being whatever guns he physically carries. Tony even laments the lack of bells and whistles.

!!The Grapplers

* AmazonBrigade: They're a team of super-strong women. You do the math.

[[folder:Helen Feliciano / Letha]]
* HatePlague: Similar to Titania, she can induce intense hate in her targets, causing them to become BlindedByRage.

[[folder:Marian Pouncy / Poundcakes]]
* GentleGiant: Is easily the largest and strongest among her friends, but is also the shyest and most soft-spoken.

[[folder:Melissa 'Mimi' Gold / Songbird]]
* MakeMeWannaShout: Dr. Malus's experiments equipped her with modified vocal cords and a special harness, enabling her to unleash sonic blasts and to forge objects out of solid sound.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Is the smallest of the Grapplers, but still tough enough to match super soldiers even discounting her powers.
[[/folder]]

* IChooseToStay: Joined the Grapplers as part of his probationary period, but when he and Wanda were given the opportunity to transfer to the Reserve Avengers, only his twin sister took the offer.

!Winter Guard
[[folder:In General]]
* DirtyBusiness: One main (unstated) reason they were formed was in response to the Avengers, in case the US ever gets plans to use them to invade or if one of them turn rogue. Only a couple find that potential appealing, and Fantasma outright calls it a worst-case scenario.
* FriendlyEnemy: Even if they were created in response to the Avengers, this does not stop Dial from befriending some of them. He even calls Fantasma a frenemy.
* PropagandaHero: Probably not by choice, but the Russian government does influence several of its aspects, like putting on a strong face in front of the Avengers.

* OneDegreeOfSeparation: Eventually meets with Matt Murdock/Daredevil, and is recognized as the the last opponent Battlin' Jack Murdock ever faced and beat before he was killed for not throwing the fight.

Simmons's replacement as the genetics expert on Team Coulson. Is also a Graveyard survivor that was mutated by the experiments there.

* KnowNothingKnowItAll: The Leader. As people point out repeatedly, he might have read thousands of books on all subjects but he has no actual experience in various fields. [[spoiler:HYDRA sees his betrayal from a mile off and Klaue completely dominates their negotiations despite technically being a prisoner.]]

* MotorMouth: Ulysses Klaue, who proceeds to irritate just about everyone he interacts with.

* NumberTwo: Was this to Nick Fury in SHIELD.

[[folder:Phil Coulson]]
An agent of SHIELD/BRIDGE who deals with many unusual threats.

* BackFromTheDead: Thanks to Project TAHITI.

!!Avengers
[[folder:Steven "Steve" Rogers / Captain America]]
A SuperSoldier made in WWII. He was frozen and was unfrozen in present day.

[[folder:Natasha Romanov / Black Widow]]
A spy trained by a Russian program. She later left that organization and joined SHIELD/BRIDGE.

[[folder:Anthony "Tony" Stark / Iron Man]]
A former weapons manufacturer who decided to use his technological skills for good.

[[folder:Clint Barton / Hawkeye]]
[[/folder]]

* ReedRichardsIsUseless: While he hasn't gone too far yet, thus far Dial is trying to avert this. He's managed to create armor and weapons for BRIDGE alongside Tony and plans on making more technology for the world at large.

* AdaptiveAbility: Thanks to his power to copy the properties of any material he touches onto his body, Creel can quickly adapt to situations as needed, and as a member of BRIDGE, he wears a bracer full of samples of useful materials, from [[FragileSpeedster lightweight aerogel]], to [[MightyGlacier superdense osmium]], to [[LightningBruiser refined vibranium]].

The cousin of Bruce Banner. She was captured and experimented on using gamma radiation due to sharing the same gamma gene as her cousin.

!!Support Team
[[folder:Fitz]]
A scientist in Coulson's team. He later leaves that team to work for Tony Stark and helps him and Dial create new technology.

* ThoseTwoGuys: Is this with Simmons.

[[folder:Simmons]]
A scientist in Coulson's team. She later leaves that team to work for Tony Stark and helps him and Dial create new technology.

* ThoseTwoGuys: Is this with Fitz.

[[folder:JARVIS]]
An AI made by Tony.

* [[RobotMaid Robot Butler]]: His robot body is literally dressed as a stereotypical butler.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Tony.

[[folder:X]]
An AI made by Dial.

* SecretKeeper: He is the first one Dial told about how Marvel and the Omnitrix are fiction where he's from.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Dial.

!!The Grapplers
[[folder:General]]
* AmazonBrigade: They're a team of super-strong women. You do the math.
* HeelFaceTurn: Originally they were mercenaries who were hired by HYDRA, but seeing how nefarious they were gave them the incentive to flip, especially after Titania was captured. Eventually, they become a part of the Initiative, a program by BRIDGE to help reform enhanced individuals that deserve a second chance.
* OneDegreeOfSeparation: They were experimented on by Dr. Karl Malus, the same person that gave Series/{{Jessica Jones|2015}} her powers.
* SoleSurvivor: The four of them were the only survivors of their high school wrestling team when their bus got in a wreck; everyone else was killed.
* SuperStrength[=/=]SuperToughness: Thanks to Dr. Malus's experiments, all of them have this to varying degrees.
* TrueCompanions: All of them would do anything for the others.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: They were high school wrestlers before their accident.

[[folder:Davida Devito / Titania]]
* AlliterativeName: '''D'''avida '''D'''evito.
* LovePotion: Can instil fanatic love in her targets, enough that they would kill for her.
** Unfortunately, it goes into GoneHorriblyRight territory when she uses this on the Appoplexian Rath, as his species expresses romantic love by beating the crap out of said lover.
* SizeShifter: Can increase her size and height to a noticeable degree.

[[folder:Helen Feliciano / Letha]]
* HatePlague: Similar to Titania, she can induce intense hate in her targets, causing them to become BlindedByRage.
* TeamMom: Was the first to wake up after the experiment that gave them powers, and immediately put all her efforts into creating a safe home for the rest when they woke up later, even if it meant mercenary work.

[[folder:Marian Pouncy / Poundcakes]]
* GentleGiant: Is easily the largest and strongest among her friends, but is also the shyest and most soft-spoken.

[[folder:Melissa 'Mimi' Gold / Songbird]]
* MakeMeWannaShout: Dr. Malus's experiments equipped her with modified vocal cords and a special harness, enabling her to unleash sonic blasts and to forge objects out of solid sound.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Is the smallest of the Grapplers, but still tough enough to match super soldiers even discounting her powers.

!Winter Guard
[[folder:In General]]
* DirtyBusiness: One main (unstated) reason they were formed was in response to the Avengers, in case the US ever gets plans to use them to invade or if one of them turn rogue. Only a couple find that potential appealing, and Fantasma outright calls it a worst-case scenario.
* PropagandaHero: Probably not by choice, but the Russian government does influence several of its aspects, like putting on a strong face in front of the Avengers.

[[folder:Mikhail Uriokovitch / Ursa Major]]
The liaison between the Russian government and the Winter Guard.
----
* {{Animorphism}}: Can [[HulkingOut shapeshift]] into a gigantic [[BearsAreBadNews bear-man]].
* HandCannon: Carries an [=RSh-12=], a revolver that fires sniper-caliber bullets.
* LetsGetDangerous: Was introduced as the Winter Guard's military liaison, with no indication that he was a metahuman himself. When the Bus came under attack by Red Ghost's cyber-monkeys, he soon proved he had the chops.
* ParentalSubstitute: To Fantasma; he mentored her after the Russian government conscripted her and taught her to love her powers. Coulson compares it to his own relationship with Skye.

[[folder:Nikolai Krylenko / Vanguard]]
A soldier who volunteered to receive powers for his country.
----
* CaptainPatriotic: Perhaps the most obvious example. He's a SuperSoldier like Cap, also wields a shield, and fights purely for his country.
* HeadbuttingHeroes: Is incredibly honorable, and thus detests the idea of working alongside a literal GodOfEvil, or ex-cons like Alloy. His superior Mikhail has to take him aside when he starts calling Creel out.

[[folder:Fantasma]]
An amnesiac woman who was taken in by the Russian government after displaying her powers.
----
* ExposedToTheElements: Her suit is [[{{Stripperiffic}} comparable to a swimsuit]], and she has no problems with the Russian weather.
* FantasticRacism: Discusses being called a freak, even by her allies.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: Uses magical sigils and mandalas similar to Dr. Strange's.

[[folder:Sergei Kravinoff / The Hunter]]
A hunter who was recruited because of his ability to hunt and kill anything.
----
* BadassNormal: Has no need for anything other than his bare hands and a [[KnifeNut bowie knife]] to match superhumans.
* BloodKnight: Finds the whole idea of civilization weak, and only joined the Winter Guard for the chance to fight other metahumans (particularly the Avengers).
* EgomaniacHunter: As is befitting Kraven the Hunter.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Not 'token', but he is the only one who outright relishes the idea of potentially [[HuntingTheMostDangerousGame hunting the Avengers]].

[[folder:Galina Nemirovsky / Crimson Dynamo]]
* HiddenDepths: Recognizes a reference to TabletopGame/Warhammer40000 that Dial makes.
* SamusIsAGirl: No-one realized she was a girl until she got out of her armor.
* ShockAndAwe: A main focus of her PoweredArmor.
* WrenchWench: In addition to designing the Crimson Dynamo armor herself (with a few of Ivan Vanko and Tesla's notes), she also created the generator for the Winter Guard Hall.

[[folder:Chernobog]]
The literal god from mythology. He joined because Winter Guard wanted a powerhouse and because he thought it would be fun.

* GodOfEvil: A literal example.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Not 'token', but he is a literal [[YourSoulIsMine soul-stealer]] that kills for pleasure, who even his own allies find off-putting. The only reason he is on the team is as a contemporary (and potential match) for either Thor or the Hulk.
* {{Troll}}: Dial outright calls him one, as he switches between affable and assholish at the drop of a hat. He goes from outright telling Dial that the Winter Guard has contingencies to defeat the Avengers, to admitting plans to go on a sightseeing tour of every Bald Mountain in the US.
--> '''Chernobog:''' I love this new world. So much more fun. I love seeing all the little ways people act out.

!HYDRA
[[folder:Strucker]]

[[folder:Emil Blonsky / Abomination]]
* BloodKnight: All he wants to to fight.
* TheBrute: As per normal.

[[folder:Rana Phillips / Aberration]]
* TheBrute: She's a gamma-enhanced human like the Hulk and Abomination.

!Intelligencia
[[folder:Samuel Sterns / The Leader]]
* EvilGenius: As in the comics, he essentially has this as his only superpower. He's been one of HYDRA's best assets, designing technology, creating more gamma mutants and holding back the various {{AI}} in the series from discovering HYDRA's secret base, despite how advanced X and Jarvis are.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: The Leader. As people point out repeatedly, he might have read thousands of books on all subjects but he has no actual experience in various fields. [[spoiler:HYDRA sees his betrayal from a mile off and Klaue completely dominates their negotiations despite technically being a prisoner.]]
* TheStarscream: Even after entering a BigBadDuumvirate with Baron Strucker, he always planned on absconding with some of their tech once their alliance was no longer beneficial. Sadly for him, [[OutGambitted Strucker easily saw it coming]].

[[folder:Ulysses Klaue]]
A weapons dealer who has earned the ire of Wakanda.

* DeadpanSnarker: Not even being attacked or imprisoned will shut him up.
* MotorMouth: Ulysses Klaue, who proceeds to irritate just about everyone he interacts with.

[[folder:Ivan Kragoff]]
A Russian scientist who believes that the only way for Russia to remain great is to attack other countries.
