* TheSnarkKnight: Thoroughly deconstructed by the end of part 2. [[spoiler: Although she never said anything, she held up high standards with a lot of things: one of those being not taking another life. Once she broke that standard, she completely lost her sense of morals. The biggest reason she tried to kill herself (which may also have been a subconscious cry for help to her friends) was because she was afraid of not caring anymore and possibly becoming evil. It only adds insult to injury when she discovers that she suffers from depression.]]

** [[spoiler: BadassAbnormal[=/=]SupernaturalMartialArts: In part 2, after suddenly gaining powers, she learns her parents had recessive Kinetic genes which had skipped their generation. Her ability is to use dark energy to enhance her physical attacks.]]

!White Dwarf (Orion Forestar)
A Celestian warrior who takes Roxy under his wing to teach her all he knows.

* BadassGrandpa: He easily defeats Roxy with only about 1/5 of his power.
* BiTheWay: In his youth, he courted his closest friend, Astro Nexus. However, due to tragic circumstances [[hottip:*:That I've yet to come up with, but it will most certainly borrow heavily from [[Manga/YuYuHakusho Genkai's relationship with Younger Toguro]].]], he eventually fell in love with Astro's sister, Nebula, and married her instead.
* CoolOldGuy

* MeaningfulName: Being called the "White Dwarf" is more than just what he's capable of, he's incredibly pale (even by Earth standards) and only about 4 feet tall.

* OldMaster: It's even the name of the chapter he debuts in, but with a "the" added at the beginning.

* MidnightBlueEyes

* HeroicWillpower: He's immune to Scaremonger's MindManipulation and isn't entirely affected by Anti Lass' negation power.

* {{Expy}}: Based mainly on [[{{Daria}} Daria Morgendorffer]]; she bears the physical resemblance and has a similar personality (though it's later deconstructed). She also shares some similarities to {{Batman}}; relying on her smarts and gadgets for her lack of superpowers (or, in Crow's case, the training to make up for it).

* {{Expy}}: Also one for {{Batman}}, much like Cannon Queen; she shares the tragic backstory, rich civilian persona, and taking custody of an orphaned child.

** TheBigGuy: Crow (The Apathetic)
** TheHeart[=/=]MissionControl: Servo Seer (The Conflicted)

* PowerNullifier

* TheLeader: Probably between a type II and IV.

** TheHeroine: Star Lass (The Realist)

* TheHero

* TheLancer

** EvilGenius: Dr. Machine

A ruthless CorruptCorporateExecutive who, for reasons she doesn't want to talk about, has found pleasure in causing pain and suffering while profiting from it. Leila, who once looked up to her while in high school, sees her true colors and promises to make her pay for her crimes.

!Dr. Machine (Brutus)

* HeroicWillpower: He's immune to Scaremonger's MindManipulation.

!Gadget Girl
A young hacker whose skills impress Astra enough that she gives the child a spot in the Anti-Squad.

* StartOfDarkness

!Killspot (Caitlin Cassidy)
An assassin hired by Ozborn to kill the Dawsons to settle a petty grudge she had against them. Despite her line of work, she comes off as incredibly friendly in her civilian persona due to Caitlin and Killspot [[SplitPersonality actually being different people]].

* AlliterativeName
* AntiVillain: Type I.
* CareerKiller
* CrazyPrepared
* DanceBattler
* DarkChick
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Killspot's a ruthless psychopath, but she still felt deeply ashamed after causing Merle to become an orphan.
* {{Expy}}: To {{Deadpool}}, sans the fourth wall breaking.
* FieryRedhead
* FriendlySniper
* HealingFactor

* IAmLegion: The two both use first person plurals unless something is only directed at one or the other.

* SplitPersonalityMakeover: As Killspot, Caitlin wears a half-black, half-dark pink mask and puts her loose hair in a ponytail.
* ThouShaltNotKill: Caitlin would barely harm another person let alone kill them. Killspot, on the other hand, terminates her targets without hesitation, but [[WouldntHurtAChild her one rule is to spare any child under the age of 16.]]
* WildCard: Further enforced when they decide to defect and become neutral.

* BenevolentBoss: He treats his henchmen as if they were his own children, [[PapaWolf and would even go out himself and avenge one of them if they were killed]]. [[spoiler: However, if they go against his orders, go do something foolish, and die attempting it, he will mourn their loss but hold no grudge against their killer. His conversation with Claire after she killed one such fool makes that clear.]]
* DumbMuscle: Subverted

* AFatherToHisMen

* RobotMaster
* SixthRanger: Is recruited by Astra in part 2.

A young hacker whose skills impress Astra enough that she gives the child Killspot's position in the Anti-Squad.

* WildCard: Much like the member she's replacing, perhaps even more so: she doesn't care when she learns Astra is evil, she just wants to challenge Servo again.
