* AdaptationalHeroism: While he still initially suffered from DeliberateValuesDissonance, he's less violent and more open-minded than his comics counterpart. He was a Kahdaqi pharaoh who killed his father after his father slain Teth's family. He also pretty legitimate reasons to hate the wizard Shazam.

For the heroes who have are not part of the Justice League or initially not part of the League.
[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder: Alan Scott/Green Lantern]]
* [[spoiler: BackInTheSaddle: Gets out of retirement to help Paul and the Team to fight the mind-controlled League and the Light.]]
* [[spoiler: BadassGrandpa: Still a good fighter well into his 90s.]]
* CoolOldGuy: He acts as a mentor and friend to OL.
* DramaPreservingHandicap: The Green Lantern are forbidden from recruiting him or letting him using their lanterns to recharge his ring and OL took his lantern and changed it to recharge his own ring. It means that he has to conserve as much ring power as possible and his old age hits him without the Green Light keep him young.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: Once Alan realized that without the Green Light keeping him young, old age had finally caught up to him. He accepted that his death is inevitable.
* FountainOfYouth: His personal lantern leaked and exposure to Green Light allows him to stay youthful well into his 90s. Once he loses this, he starts regaining his old age. He gets his youth back once he gets his ring recharged to extreme circumstance. With a fully charged ring, he looks like Paul's older brother than the old man he is.
* IWillWaitForYou: A tragic variant, despite his wife Rose going mad from her SplitPersonalityTakeover he never gave up on her and held hope that she would eventually recover. He would always visit her at the Amazon mental sanitarium every chance he got. She never recovered and she died cursing him with her last breath.
* IntrepidReporter: He was one in his youth.
* LikeASonToMe: He serves as a surrogate grandfather to Paul and he sees Paul the same way.
* LostLenore: He lost his wife, Rose Canton to her own madness and never remarried.
* NiceGuy: Is such a good person that he's only person that Amazon give free reign to visit.
* OlderThanHeLooks: Despite being in his nineties, he looks much younger due to exposure to the Green Light.
* OutOfFocus: Doesn't appear very often in the Renegade timeline.
* RealMenCook: Due to living alone most of his life, Alan is a very good cook.
* RetiredBadass: Was the first Green Lantern before he retired.
* SoProudOfYou: Is very proud of what Paul has achieved.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Guy Gardner/Green Lantern 2814-B]]

* BigEgoHiddenDepths: The lanterns initially mock Guy because he's a loud, obnoxious man with a crass attitude and is more than a little reckless. However, he learned how to project constructs without tying them to the ring before either Hal or John, figured out how to use his ring to heal himself based on something he watched Paul do, and helps rehabilitate criminals.
** Turns out that if Abin Sur hadn't need to recruit someone one closer in order to explain the Green Lanterns, the ring would have picked Guy as the ring saw Guy as the superior candidate.
** He also learned how to ''weaponize'' his large ego, or rather, he figured out how to NoSell Orange Lantern assimilation because he wills himself to be the best he can be, and since he's already perfect, if he changed he wouldn't be the best, now would he?
* {{Foreshadowing}}: He is noted by OL to the superior Lantern to Hal Jordan and to have learned from OL's actions in Paragon, such as quickly learning how to heal himself using the ring and how to separate his constructs from his ring. [[spoiler: Through a great act of will, he becomes the host of '''Ion'''.]]
* HealingFactor: He learned from watching Paul how to heal himself with his ring.
* HeroicWillpower: Well, ''duh.''
* NoSell: Only one immune to Identity Theft. [[spoiler: Was able to resist being controlled with Starrotech through sheer force of will.]]
* ReverseMole: Of sorts. All the Green Lantern Corps' information on Paul and his capabilities as Orange Lantern comes from Guy reporting it. Paul knows and accepts it in hopes that Guy could find more answers on the Orange Lanterns.
* TheMentor: Becomes Paul's mentor on forming constructs with his ring. Notably Paul teaches him as much as he teaches Paul.
* TheShrink: is a prison counselor in his day job. He notably inspires Paul to act as a WarriorTherapist to reform supervillains by telling him his own experiences with reforming criminals.
** He is Grayven's counselor for his anger management therapy.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Guy and Paul make fun of the other's power limitations and quirks but down the line they have each other's backs.

[[folder: Dannette "Danni" Reily/Firebrand/Red Inferno]]

* BackFromTheDead: Believed to have died after TakingTheBullet. She is activated by Dr. Morrow and rejoins the living after she is freed.
* BiTheWay: She start falling for Orange Lantern until her frequent visits with the Logans that she developed an attraction with Marie.
* ManchurianAgent: Was built to infiltrate the All-Star Squadron, which she only knew after the fact.
* PlayingWithFire: Her ability.
* RefusalOfTheCall: Was asked to join the Justice League but declined so she focus on her self and reintegrating with normal life.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Paulphidian improved her body to the point that she has sense of taste and smell and erogenous zones to go with an improved sense of touch.
* RobotGirl: Firebrand was a gynoid created by Dr. Morrow to infiltrate the All-Star Squadron.
* SparedByTheAdaptation
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Inverted, her sugar is a facade she uses to facilitate social interactions. When she's around people she trusts she shows her true self: which is an expressionless and emotionless woman.
* TakingTheBullet: She died taking a plasma blast for Jay Garrick.
* TomatoInTheMirror: She is a lot of emotional issues after finding that she is a gynoid and her earlier memories were not real and her personality was programmed.
* YoungerThanSheLooks: When she "died" she was only three years old


[[folder: John Constantine]]

A tricky and guile wizard. He becomes Paul's magical consultant when the latter hires after Kent Nelson's failed recruitment.
* ChaoticGood: While he's a good person, he's noted to be very chaotic in nature. Nabu fears that he could become a Lord of Chaos with enough incentive.
* DoomMagnet: It is noted that anyone who hangs around him ends up dying horribly.
* GoodIsNotNice: While some of it is exaggerated, Constantine has earned his bad reputation. OL notes him to be a huge jerk.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: John. Constantine. Hands down. Absolutely ''no one'' in the organized hero community likes him (he has his own group of friends), ranging from Zatara (though he has his reasons) to ''Swamp Thing.'' In fact, Nabu uses Paul's association with Constantine as a reason why he shouldn't be made a member of the League.
** In the original show, Guy Gardner got a NoJustNoReaction. In this continuity, he's given well-reasoned discussion... but ''John'' not only gets that reaction, he gets it with even ''more'' people agreeing.
* MindControl: Tends to use mind control magic the most.
* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler: Is responsible for the death of Zatanna's mother, Sindella.]]
* NiceToTheWaiter: Inverted with his interactions with Paragon!OL. Unlike the other people he has conned, he is downright cordial to OL. Justified since OL pays him very generously for doing magical research.
* TakeMeInstead: He tries to offer himself to Nabu in exchange for Zatanna's freedom. He is refused.
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Deemed too chaotic for Nabu.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Teth Adom]]

* ActionPolitician: He is ancient warrior turned superhero that is becoming [[spoiler: President of Kahndaq in the rebel government.]]
* AdaptationalHeroism: While he still initially suffered from DeliberateValuesDissonance, he's less violent and more open-minded than his comics counterpart. He was a Kahdaqi pharaoh who killed his father after his father slain Teth's family. He also pretty legitimate reasons to hate the wizard Shazam.
* AndIMustScream: Imprisoned in his own decaying corpse for 5000 years before Black Adam traps him in the scarab.
* BeenThereShapedHistory: Exploited. He teaches university what was his rule and Ancient Kahndaq actually like in exchange for lessons in English and modern Arabic.
* BerserkButton: The wizard Shazam for his betrayal of him.
* DefectorFromDecadence: He backed away from the more crueler practices of his time, like taking trophies from dead enemies and killing conquered people when his time as Black Adam gave him the perspective that his enemies weren't so different from him.
* FallenHero: Subverted, he is treated as one by Shazam but is still a heroic figure.
* FashionHurts: The reason he has his PointyEars is because his father wanted the royal family to have an otherworldly, thus godly look. Adom believed that he was lucky that he didn't die of infection.
* FireForgedFriends: Is good friends with Paul after the latter helped him win his freedom and adapt to the modern world.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: He finds several things about the modern world strange and confusing, if not outright horrifying. Such as people turning away perfectly good food like bacon because of Religion, men no longer considering kilts fashionable clothing, and a funny, if disturbing, misunderstanding related to [[{{Squick}} indoor plumbing and tap water]], and their source.
* TheGoodKing: When he was pharaoh, he began an age of prosperity for ancient Kahndaq for 80 years. He established fair laws, didn't have conquered peoples killed but instead moved them and built many great public works projects.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Despite adopting a less violent code of combat to fit in with the modern times, he knows how to utilize the power of humiliation on his enemies.
* GrandTheftMe: He takes over [[AssholeVictim Black Adam]]'s body when he proved more worthy of the gods' blessing.
* HeroicResolve: He will do anything to save Kahndaq, even theoretically work with Shazam.
* HatesBeingTouched
* HistoricalBeautyUpdate: Averted while Black Adam looked like a bodybuilder, Teth Adom looks like his time's ideal of strength: an athletic body that would be considered mundane in modern times. The only difference between his Mighty Adom form and his normal self is that his normal form is slimmer.
* ItsPersonal: While he was already willing to lend a hand in the liberation of the Justice League from the Light for Orange Lantern and Wonder Woman's sakes. When he finds out that his hated enemy, Vandal Savage was part of the attack, it gets personal.
* LikeAFishTakesToWater: He adopts a less violent code of fighting when OL makes a successful argument of following modern laws as he would have wanted his laws obeyed. He stops eating pork to fit in with his countrymen. He hesitates at the idea of becoming king if he and the rebels overthrow Kahndaq's tyrant as he wants to rule as his countrymen want him to. So he becomes president.
* OddFriendship: Is friends with Captain Marvel, as he doesn't hate him for the wizard's actions and views him as a worthy successor.
* PointyEars: He was made to have his ears cut by his father in order to achieve an [[InvokedTrope otherworldly look.]]
* PowerOfHate: Survived 5000 years of boredom through his hatred of the wizard Shazam.
* RebelLeader: Instigates and leads Kahndaq's rebel forces after he starts protecting them from [[TheCaligula President Muhunnad]].
* SlaveToPR: Downplayed, once he learns the importance of a distinct appearance for superheroes he refuses to give up the Black Adam costume.
* TheyWereHoldingYouBack: His wife and children were killed by father when he started to gain more empathy for his enemies and tried to become a kinder ruler.
* WarriorPrince: He was this before becoming pharaoh.

[[folder: Mister Miracle and Big Barda/Scott and Barda Free]]

* AnthropomorphicPersonification: Scott is the New God of Freedom.
* DeadpanSnarker: When she sees OL come up with a good lie on the spot, she comments that she didn't know Earth had a New God of Bullshit. She makes many other snide remarks in Subliminal Godspeak.
* HappilyMarried
* NoodleIncident: Why they had to move from New York. Apparently it involved Big Barda and a "Five Items or Less" line. It's implied that violence ensued.
* WhiteSheep: In the words of Paul, they were kicked out for being insufficiently evil.
