* IJustWantToBeYou: If you get down to it, this is the core of what drives Raneem’s hatred of Miles. She resents that he has a family that she never got. She hates that he had the opportunity given to him because her lotto number was 41 and not 42. Combined with the grief of losing her only family, becoming an orphan, and living in squalor, she chooses to focus on Miles as the recipient of all she feels entitled too even if it makes no sense.

* LogicalWeakness: Rabble can only control technology that requires an AI or some user interface mentally. Anything else like Starling's Wings would require HollywoodHacking on her part, but she has shown to effectively shut down most tech immediately. However, if her enemy isn't reliant on technology like Miles, she would have to use bruteforce.

* {{Technopath}}: Raneem has possessed technopathic powers since she was a child. She "speaks" to machines somehow and is able to overwrite their software mentally. She is not able to do this too much as using her ability to much causes a strain.

* IJustWantToBeYou / IHateYou: If you get down to it, this is the core of what drives Raneem’s hatred of Miles. She resents that he has a family that she never got. She hates that he had the opportunity given to him because her lotto number was 41 and not 42. Combined with the grief of losing her only family, becoming an orphan, and living in squalor, she chooses to focus on Miles as the recipient of all she feels entitled too even if it makes no sense.

* NaiveNewcomer/NewMeat: Her inexperience in the Cape Killers is shown as she is often berated by both Scorpion and Hightail when she messes up. Then again, she is being forced to be a member to work off her sentence.

* DroneDeployer: She is a walking one and this is her MO. She uses drones to [[SkySurfing ride and manuever around on]], [[OrbitalParticleShield to protect and shield herself from direct harm]], [[SurveillanceDrone to physically monitor her surroundings]], [[BombardierMook to blow up on her enemies and firebomb her targets]], and to carry items or people. [[{{Technopath}}On top of her ability to speak to high tech machinery]] and her HollywoodHacking skills, she tends to hijack other people's drones and use them against them.

* SurveillanceDrone: Her AttackDrone Army also serves as surveillance and OrbitalParticleShield.

* SinisterScythe: One made of electricity.

* {{Technopath}}: Raneem has possessed technopathic powers since she was a child. She "speaks" to machines and is able to overwrite their software mentally. She is not able to do this too much as using her ability to much causes a strain.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2023_05_17_224737.png]]

* TheArmorer: She's the one responsible for outfitting Bumbler and Scorpion with more powerful gear, with her price being that they simply use it to ''kill Miles''' as soon as they have the opportunity.

* {{Technopath}}: Raneem has possessed technopathic powers since she was a child.

* TakingYouWithMe: Has a "Pyrrhic protocol" set up to try and self-destruct her devices and get Miles caught in the blast. Miles survives, but [[NeverFoundTheBody there is no trace of her]].

A [[MonsterFangirl supervillain fangirl]] who got herself killed trying to kiss Maxwell Dillon while he was suffering a SuperpowerMeltdown, Francine Frye was resurrected by the Jackal as an incentive to convince the recently de-powered Electro work for him. But the procedure that was supposed to grant Max his abilities back [[HijackedDestiny went to Francine instead]], resulting in her [[KillAndReplace killing and replacing him]] as the brand-new Electro. Frye would go onto join the Sinister Six led by Aaron Davis to steal a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier to sell to Latveria, which was foiled by Miles Morales and the Champions. In 2023, Frye was captured by Agent Gao and chose to join her Cape Killers initiative instead of rotting in prison.

* HatesMySecretIdentity: Averted. Unlike in typical Spider-Man fashion, Raneem isn’t trouble brought into Miles because he is Spider-Man. Being Spider-Man actually saved his life because could imagine what have happened if he didn’t have powers. Raneem hates Miles specifically and only Miles regardless of him being Spider-Man.

* ThePowerOfHate: Is driven by it along with her misplaced grief. Rabble refuses to be redeemed as long as Miles is breathing air. Raneem actually hates Miles.

* RevengeMyopia: She's laser focused on taking down Miles as emblematic of a corrupt system that gambles with the lives of marginalized children, even though Miles is just as much a subject of it as her. If he didn't win, she'd probably be stalking another innocent who would be much less prepared to defend themselves than Miles. Taking him out probably wouldn't even change anything, likely being seen as another supervillain attacking a superhero.

A fashion designer turned cuthroat business mogul who decided to take a spin at being a supervillain after discovering the laboratory and arsenal of the original Green Goblin, Roderick Kingsley sought to [[JackTheRipoff surpass Norman Osborn]] as a career [[TheChessmaster criminal mastermind]] [[PragmaticVillainy unbound by the petty revenge-fueled motivations of his predecessor]]. But after suffering [[HumiliationConga repeated defeats]] at the hands of heroes like Spider-Man and Captain Marvel, Kingsley inevitably hit RockBottom and became a shell of his former menacing self. While he joined the Aaron Davis-led incarnation of the Sinister Six as a desprate bid to score a win for himself, their heist to steal a S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier was foiled by Miles Morales and the Champions.

Afterwards, Kingsley was unwittingly dragged into the machinations of the Queen Goblin AKA Ashley Kafka, who [[BrainwashedAndCrazy brainwashed]] him as part of an elaborate plot against a reformed Norman Osborn. But in a twist of fate, a remnant of Kingley's true persona was able to [[FightingFromTheInside resist]] long enough to reverse what Kafka did to him. Now [[HesBack back to his senses with a newfound sense of purpose]], the Hobgoblin has planted his roots in Brooklyn to errect a brand new criminal empire for himself while hunting down his old Queen. And if seeing his grand ambitions realized means fighting tooth and nail against Brooklyn's very own wallcrawler to get it done, [[WouldHurtAChild so be it]].

* CursedWithAwesome: She relishes her power and can no longer imagine what life is like without them. Considering they granted her wealth and prestige, it is hard to say that she is wrong.
* CyberNinja: Runs a clan of Cyber Ninja armed with LaserBlade Katanas.
* DarkActionGirl: Definitely this.
* DatingCatwoman: Heavily implied to be the reason why she was smitten with Miles and why she was so disappointed to learn that he was Spider-Man. Even if Miles did requite her attraction to him, it would never realistically grow past flirting by virtue of her being a {{Yakuza}} and him being a {{Superhero}}.
* GenreSavvy: She is well aware that the only reason she is thriving is because she has not caught the ire/attention of any SHIELD or Avengers operatives. The moment that she did, she immediately dipped out and went into hiding.
** Was relieved when the bane and reason why her organization fell, Tony Stark and James Rhodes, were indisposed, so when she learned that there was a replacement, she immediately went after Ironheart and Rescue to neutralize them before they could become an issue.
* ExplosiveLeash: She implants bombs in her goons' heads as a measure to keep them from divulging information. Not that she needs to worry as they are [[UndyingLoyalty fanatically loyal to her]].
* FromNobodyToNightmare: She herself claims to have been a "nobody" before her Inhuman-powers kicked in and helped her to overthrow the Japanese underworld, becoming a very powerful crimeboss who fights the likes of Iron Man and Spider-Man.
* NeverASelfMadeWoman: Averted. Tomoe started from the bottom and now she is a criminal princess.
-->'''Miles:''' Oh, this is so cool.(referring to the garden on top of her building) Is this your dad's?\\
'''Tomoe:''' [[EloquentInMyNativeTongue Dad's?]]\\
'''Miles:''' Your Father's?\\
'''Tomoe:''' Oh, Oh no. No. This is mine.\\
'''Miles:''' You own this?\\
'''Tomoe:''' I own the building. And the sky above it.
* RagsToRiches: According to her, she used her powers to climb the ladder of success.
* RevengeBeforeReason: She is vindictive and prideful so she does not forget those who betrayed her and slighted her in the least. Given that both Miles and Riri drew her ire, one can expect that she will come back and haunt them again.
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: She started fighting Iron Man and his supporting cast before turning to Spider-Man.
* SmittenTeenageGirl: Very much the case with Miles and why she was disappointed that he was Spider-Man. Even after the fight and the realization that he is Spider-Man and everybody had collapsed, she crawls over to him hinting that she wanted to kiss him.
* {{Technopath}}: An extremely powerful one at that. She can use any technology that is metal based. '''Any''' technology. She has stripped 4 Iron Men of their suits, taken both Spider-men of their web shooters, implanted several biotech mods in her flunkies that she can detonate on will, and shut down an entire building. There is a reason why she is under constant surveillance of SHIELD.
* {{Yakuza}}: Although she was not born in a gang, Tome did create her own syndicate from scratch and used them to overthrow and assimilate her rivals in the Japanese underworld.

------

--> '''Prowler:''' You worried the Tinkerer's gonna come down here and choke you the eff out?
--> '''Ceres:''' [[HaHaHaNo Ha! No.]]
--> '''Prowler:''' I would be. I'd be worried about that dude creeping over my shoulder with a big ass knife. This used to be his domain exclusively.
--> '''Ceres:''' [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome Well that was never true]]. He doesn't own the marketplace. There's plenty of work here for everyone. And if you find better innovation over on his side of the Hudson then you go right ahead, my friend. But what I'm cooking up here [[BadassBoast makes his best stuff look like Iron Man's roller skates.]]

* MindControl: His power, which he primarily uses on the kids he abducts. He also tries to use it on Spider-Man, Rhino, and Captain America when they track him down, but finds this group (a teenager with HeroicWillpower to spare, a semi-reformed villain in full PapaWolf - err, Uncle Rhino -- mode, and ''the'' {{Determinator}} of the Marvel Universe) much harder to control than the children, implying that he's nowhere near as strong as Marvel's most recognizable telepaths like Professor X or Jean Grey.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He specifically says that kids he abducts come from families that, in his view, "don't belong" in the US - undocumented immigrants, homeless people, pro-vaccination families, and so on.
** Has a Neo Nazi Iron Cross tattooed on his arm so yeah, we know his political affiliations.

* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: The Assessor thankfully ends up on the receiving end of this trope after [[spoiler:Miles eventually confesses to [[ComicBook/IronMan Tony Stark]] what happened to him while he was the Assessor's captive. Tony, ''completely horrified'' and ''[[BerserkButton enraged]]'' by the revelation, takes it upon himself to '''[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill singlehandedly annihilate]]''' both the Assessor and his illicit operations in Brooklyn [[PapaWolf for what he did to the kid.]]]]

* OhCrap: In a rare case of NotSoStoic, [[spoiler: The Assessor is completely floored by how Iron Man was able to steamroll past his defenses and dispatch his primary enforcer Quantum. And since Tony set up signal blockers ahead of time that prevent the criminal mastermind from digitally transferring himself to safety, the Assessor has nowhere else left to run...]]
--> [[spoiler:'''Iron Man''': Go on. Try to broadcast your persona out and away from this body. To safety. You can't, ''can you?'']]
--> '''Assessor''': No. Impossible. ''[[VillainousBreakdown Inconceivable.]]''
--> [[spoiler:'''Iron Man''': Wrong. '''Wrong.''' '''[[BadassBoast Invincible]].''' Remember that.]]

* ViewerGenderConfusion: And Viewer ''Number'' Confusion, for that matter. The Assessor exclusively uses the pronoun "we" in self-directed speech. When directly interacting with Miles, the Assessor is seen as a creepy mechanical man, who then vanishes after providing "Subject 002-004" with the redacted terms and conditions. From there, Miles only hears the Assessor as a disembodied voice through a speaker. Towards the end, we see a pair of human scientists, who Miles defeats during his escape attempt, but it's unclear if they were the Assessor, minions for the Assessor, or part of the escape attempt-themed simulation that the Assessor was running on Miles.

* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His outfit is the reverse of Miles’ Spidey suit — mainly red with black designs.

See Characters/{{Carnage}} for more info.

* ChronicVillainy: Discussed. The last time they fought one another, Miles had assumed that the Bumbler heeded his ultimatum to give up being a supervillain and get another hobby that doesn't require breaking the law. So when Miles catches Bumbler trying to pull off a heist, his disappointment is palpable.
-->'''Spider-Man:''' I can't believe I'm going a round two with you. Thought we ended last time on such a good lesson!
-->'''Bumbler:''' Street life is hard! [[OnlyInItForTheMoney I needed the money!]]
-->'''Spider-Man:''' Damn, that's a shame.

[[folder: Selim and the Miles Morales’ clones]]

* RevengeMyopia: She's laser focused on taking down Miles as emblematic of a corrupt system that gambles with the lives of marginalized children, even though Miles is just as much a subject of it as her. If he didn't win she'd probably be stalking another innocent, who would be much less prepared to defend themselves than Miles. Taking him out probably wouldn't even change anything, likely being seen as another supervillain attacking a superhero.
* ShutUpKirk: Miles tries desperately to talk her down but she vehemently denies him because she refuses to let him be the hero in her revenge story.
-->'''Miles (pleading with Raneem):''' You’re right. I don’t understand. I don’t think I ever will. But I know my family isn’t to blame. So please don’t take it out on them. Take it out on me. I won’t fight you anymore, Raneem. Just leave them be.
--> '''Raneem:''' No. No. No. It’s not fair. You still get to decide. You still get a shot at redemption. You still get to take the high road and give me your pity. You still get to be the hero. You still win! I can’t let that happen.
--> '''Miles:''' Raneem, please don’t—-
--> '''Raneem (Powered up and Pissed Off):''' ''I’m never going to stop coming for you, Miles Morales. Or your family. Or your friends. I’m going to be the thing that keeps you up at night. If you want to stop me, you’re going to have to see this through to the end!''
* SinisterScythe: Made of electricity.

--> '''Rabble:''' We can call it even, Miles! Just a simple trade! A mother for a mother! A father for a father! What do you say?! Does that sound fair to you?! When you are the only Morales left, then this debt’ll be settled!
* WouldHurtAChild: Raneem deliberately targeted Miles’ family knowing he had a baby sister and her goal was to kill Billie along with anyone connected with Miles.

* ByTheBookCop: For as long as the [[SuperRegistrationAct Powers Act]] is in effect, Gao will come after Miles with the full might of the NYPD backing her, regardless if he's using his abilities to help out his fellow man.
** Subverted in the ''ComicBook/CarnageReigns'' miniseries, where it's revealed that Gao recruited Scorpion in an off-the-books program where he assists her squad in apprehending other superhuman criminals in exchange for time shaved off of his prison sentence. And Gargan isn't the only villain Gao has roped into her operation this way.
* CapeBusters: Both Gao and the men under her command are specially equipped to combat and apprehend supervillains. Just to drive home how good they are at their job, Gao was able to take out an upgraded [[Characters/MarvelComicsMacGargan Scorpion]] ''[[CurbStompBattle in a single hit]]'', who at the time had both Miles and Misty Knight on the ropes.
** During Cletus Kasady's latest rampage, Gao decides to deploy the Cape Killers: a [[ComicBook/{{Thunderbolts}} Thunderbolts-esque]] team of supervillain convicts (Scorpion, Taskmaster, Electro II, and Hightail) she had personally enlisted to provide backup for her men in their mission to apprehend superhumans in violation of the Powers Act, which includes superheroes like Spider-Man.

* {{Hypocrite}}: She gets on Miles for being a DestructiveSavior in a fight in which Scorpion caused most of the damage but then [[RecruitingTheCriminal recruits Scorpion]] along with several others supervillains in a BoxedCrook arrangement so they can fight other supers on her behalf.

** In Miles Morales: Spider-Man #10-12, she sicc’s Hightail on Miles for no other reason other than to antagonize him. When Miles is helping Blade and his daughter deal with an energy vampire infestation, Hightail intervenes in what is a controlled situation only to become a thrall of the head vampire herself. She then starts biting multiple civilians and infected them thus becoming an example of said public reckless endangerment that Gao berated Miles for just because Gao forced Hightail to illegally stalk Miles.
* IControlMyMinionsThrough: The carrot and stick approach. All of the supervillains recruited into her strike team called the Cape Killers (Scorpion, Taskmaster, Electro (Francine Frye), and new villain Hightail) are rewarded with time shaved off of their prison sentence and implied financial compensation for their continued cooperation. But if they ever step out of line while in the field, Gao has methods of painfully shutting them down via ShockCollar and will throw their asses back into [[TheAlcatraz the Raft]] if they prove themselves to be too much trouble.

* MisplacedRetribution: Seems to be under the impression that Spider-Man is a lot like Batman whose vigilante actions created the vacuum that allowed supervillains to exist.
** Gao was forced to [[MercyKill shoot her own partner]] to spare him the fate of [[FateWorseThanDeath being taken by Cletus Kasady]] during ''ComicBook/MaximumCarnage'' and she blames Spider-Man for even bringing the symbiotes in existence. Problem is that she is antagonizing [[CollectiveIdentity the wrong Spider-Man]], who wasn't even in the same universe when Maximum Carnage went down. It was mainly Venom's/Eddie Brock's fault for the creation of Carnage than either Spider-Man's. And Peter, as soon as he found out that his black and white suit was a living symbiote, immediately tried to destroy it.
** Gao, in the same speech, blames Spider-Man for Scorpion, which is more egregious than the Venom accusation since it was John Jonah Jameson that hired Mac Gargan as a private investigator to track down how Peter Parker was getting the photos of Spider-Man and when that failed, he put Mac in an experiment to create a Spider-Man buster that we see as Scorpion today. Peter did nothing to "make" Scorpion happen other than be too good at his day job. And Gao should know this as JJJ himself went and took full responsibility for his actions on the front page of his own newspaper. Also, in the incident that she berates Miles for, it wasn’t Miles that caused most of the property damage. It was Scorpion and PDNY’s pursuit of Scorpion that did so as Miles simply prevented a casualty.

-->'''Spider-Man:''' I'm just saying. Keep that same energy when you're not in Brooklyn. Also, incase you missed it -- '''I SAVED THE DAY!'''
-->'''Agent Gao:''' At what cost, genius?
-->'''Spider-Man:''' Huh?
-->'''Agent Gao:''' Destruction of private property. Destruction of public property. Destruction of municipal property. Interfering with the public transportation system. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero This single act of vigilantism has cost the city more than whatever money Scorpion would've gotten from that bank]]. Money that was ''insured'', by the way. So, again, I ask...''[[ArmorPiercingQuestion at what cost?]]''
* MistakenForRacist: Subverted. When Miles accuses her of disproportionately targeting minorities like himself, Gao retorts that she didn't even know what the wallcrawler ''looked like'' under his mask until he brought it up, but she does not deny Miles' claim that they do in fact target people of color. Note that Miles didn't mention what race he was either. In ''ComicBook/CarnageReigns'', she immediately proves Miles' point when she had Scorpion take down a black woman with wind powers who refused to be a bystander when she was getting robbed.
-->'''Miles:''' Oh, I heard all about you guys. Cracking skulls and pushing around folks for looking after their own streets. Heard ones where folks living there who look like me get it the worst. That about right?
-->'''Agent Gao:''' Got no clue what you look like under there, kid, but now I can take a guess.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Agent Gao effectively supplants Frank Quaid, a prominent cop character from the Bendis-era, as the reoccurring hardass law enforcement officer in Miles' life. Albeit she seems to be taking a far more antagonistic approach in comparison to Quaid since her first major act is to enlist supervillain convicts to assist her efforts in capturing Spider-Man and combat other superhumans regardless of their innocence.

* UngratefulBitch: Miles saved her from falling out of an helicopter during the CarnageReigns event. He then stops Carnage with the help of IronMan when her Cape Killers failed spectacularly and even ended up as a liability. She chooses to continue antagonize Miles’ specifically for no apparent reason other than a grudge.

* BoxedCrook: In ComicBook/CarnageReigns, she is under the control of Agent Gao in the latter's personal superhero killing program, Cape Killers.

* {{Mutant}}: In ''ComicBook/RedGoblin'' #5, Feilong criticizes Agent Gao for the villains she chose to be a part of her team's roster, taking particular offense to the fact that one of them [[FantasticRacism is a mutant]]. With Scorpion and Electro being officially classified as human mutates while Taskmaster wasn't born with an X-Gene to explain his photographic reflexes, that leaves Hightail as the only member of the roster who could be the mutant in question.
* StickyFingers: She is a thief that uses her SuperSpeed to steal.

* FromNobodyToNigjtmare: She herself claims to have been a "nobody" before her Inhuman-powers kicked in and helped her to overthrow the Japanese underworld, becoming a very powerful crimeboss who fights the likes of Iron Man and Spider-Man.

** Gao, in the same speech, blames Spider-Man for Scorpion, which is more egregious than the Venom accusation since it was John Jonah Jameson that hired Mac Gargan as a private investigator to track down how Peter Parker was getting the photos of Spider-Man and when that failed, he put Mac in an experiment to create a Spider-Man buster that we see as Scorpion today. Peter did nothing to "make" Scorpion happen other than be too good at his day job. And Gao should know this as JJJ himself went and took full responsibility for his actions on the front page of his own newspaper.

* ByTheBookCop: For as long as the [[SuperRegistrationAct Powers Act]] is in effect, Gao will come after Miles with the full might of the PDNY backing her, regardless if he's using his abilities to help out his fellow man.

* CowboyCop: What she actually is. Gao is exploiting a law implemented by a CorruptPolitician to carry out a vendetta towards supers due to a misplaced belief that superheroes like Spider-Man are the center of all of the problems in New York. Not only does she state that Mayor Cage is unaware of her operation, its heavily implied that he'll take her badge if he ever finds out.

* FantasticRacism: Hates supers with a passion to the point that she will abuse the law implemented by Wilson Fisk back when he was still the mayor of New York to arrest civilians with powers who just happen to fight or defend themselves.

** She is definitely a hypocrite when it is revealed in ''Red Goblin'' #5 that Gao and the Cape Killers are being funded by Kelvin Heng aka Feilong, an anti-mutant supremacist mutate who has publicly gotten in squabbles with Iron Man where Kelvin used his power against Iron Man and caused property damage. Kelvin has created Stark Sentinels to accomplish his anti-mutant agenda which is more destructive than any vigilante could hope to be. Feilong is funding Gao with the express purpose of causing disruption and disorder and the fact that Gao isn't aware of this or at least is not looking into her benefactor is hypocritical.
* IControlMyMinionsThrough: The carrot and stick approach. All of the supervillains recruited into her strike team called the Cape Killers (Scorpion, Taskmaster, Electro (Francine Frye), and new villain Hightail (Sandra Santos)) are rewarded with time shaved off of their prison sentence and implied financial compensation for their continued cooperation. But if they ever step out of line while in the field, Gao has methods of painfully shutting them down via ShockCollar and will throw their asses back into [[TheAlcatraz the Raft]] if they prove themselves to be too much trouble.

* IronLady: Leads her squad with impunity and not afraid to punish her enslaved supervillains when they don't give her respect.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Agent Gao effectively supplants Frank Quaid, a prominent cop character from the Bendis-era, as the reoccuring hardass law enforcement officer in Miles' life. Albeit she seems to be taking a far more antagonistic approach in comparison to Quaid when her first act is to have Scorpion work for her to possibly capture Spider-Man as well as fight other superheroes.

* BlackSheep: So much so that the courts took custody of Lana away from her declaring her to be an unfit parent.
