| 9 | * FiveTokenBand: The Star Alliance members are all multiracial; the following are merely their most visible lineages. Roxy is Asian, Rio is Hispanic, Claire Caucasian, Merle Indian. [[note]]As in both South Asian and Native American[[/note]], and Tom Caucasian as well, though he also fulfills the "kid in a wheelchair" role later on. |

| 15 | |
| 16 | !Star Lass (Roxanne Kaizen) |
| 17 | The main character of the series, Roxy (as she's called) starts the series having just graduated from high school. Super-strong, super-sharp, and super-snarky, she's struggled with human interaction for years. That is until Rio came along; but his family soon moved away before he got through to her and she still ended up becoming an antisocial outcast until he returned at the start of her senior year. After admitting her true feelings for Rio and finally coming to terms with her insecurities, she becomes kinder and more willing to make friends. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | Despite her IceQueen-like personality, she is very optimistic and wants to make a difference in society; as Star Lass, she intends to do just that. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | * AmazonianBeauty: Although she hides her muscles in public by wearing loose clothing. |
| 22 | * AntiHero: Type III, though she sometimes goes down to Type II. |
| 23 | * AuthorAvatar: WordOfGod gave her a personality much like his own. |
| 24 | * BrilliantButLazy |
| 25 | * TheCape: [[PlayingWith/TheCape A Reconstruction]]. |
| 26 | * CloudcuckoolandersMinder: To Rio. |
| 27 | * CovertPervert |
| 28 | * DeadpanSnarker |
| 29 | * DefrostingIceQueen: After chapter 7. |
| 30 | * DyingAlone: Her greatest fear, though she would never publicly admit it. |
| 31 | * {{Expy}}: For Superman, at least with her Star Lass persona. |
| 32 | * FlyingBrick: She has the three abilities that many Celestians possess: |
| 33 | ** {{Flight}} |
| 34 | ** SuperStrength |
| 35 | ** ThePowerOfTheSun |
| 36 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Phlegmatic I and II. |
| 37 | * GoodIsNotNice: Though [[DefrostingIceQueen she gets better]]. |
| 38 | ** GoodIsNotSoft: Just because she eventually becomes nice, doesn't mean she goes any easier on criminals. |
| 39 | * HandBlast: Her "Solar Blast" and "SMG (Sun Machine Gun)" attacks. |
| 40 | * HatesBeingTouched: With a few exceptions. |
| 41 | * TheHeroine |
| 42 | * HeroicBuild: Although she's slightly more hefty and curvaceous than your average example. |
| 43 | * HeroicNeutral |
| 44 | * HumbleHero: The main reason she has a SecretIdentity is not to protect her loved ones (as she knows they can do fine should anything happen), but rather to not be constantly praised by random people during her civilian hours when she helps people as Star Lass. In fact, even when being personally thanked as Star Lass, she acts rather {{Tsundere}}-ish about it. |
| 45 | * IneffectualLoner |
| 46 | * InformedLoner: While she feels comfort in not being surrounded by people, she also doesn't want to be ''entirely'' friendless. |
| 47 | * IJustWantToHaveFriends: Only she's too afraid to open up to others out of fear that if she went through the trouble of making friends, they would eventually leave and emotionally hurt her. Rio's sudden departure is what made her recognize this. |
| 48 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold |
| 49 | * TheKirk |
| 50 | * KnightInSourArmor |
| 51 | * TheLeader: Probably between a type II and IV, although she has some traits of all four in some way. |
| 52 | * LightEmUp |
| 53 | * LightIsGood |
| 54 | * LonersAreFreaks: Some people she met at high school often asked if she was this kind of person. She may subconsciously believe this, which is why she wants at least one person to consider her a friend. |
| 55 | * LoonyFriendsImproveYourPersonality |
| 56 | * MeaningfulName: Her first two names (her middle one is Mitsuko) mean "light". |
| 57 | * MostCommonSuperpower: They're more noticeable when she's in her hero outfit. |
| 58 | * NaughtyByNight: Despite her shy and dutiful personality, she is rather perverted and takes pride in having a healthy sex life with Rio. |
| 59 | * OneHeadTaller: Averted; she and Rio are almost the same height. |
| 60 | * ShrinkingViolet: A [[PlayingWith/ShrinkingViolet downplayed]] example. |
| 61 | * SignatureHairDecs: Has a couple with her redesign to emphasize her femininity in comparison to the other two girls. |
| 62 | * TheSnarkKnight: Also downplayed. |
| 63 | * SociallyAwkwardHero |
| 64 | * StepfordSnarker: As a kid, she used bitter sarcasm as a coping mechanism; however, once she gets over her problems as a young adult, she uses it in a much more playful manner. |
| 65 | * SugarAndIcePersonality |
| 66 | * SweetTooth: She loves sweets, namely dark chocolate. |
| 67 | * ThinkNothingOfIt: See HumbleHero. |

| 69 | * UnkemptBeauty: She hardly, if ever, keeps her hair tidy. |
| 70 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Claire, type 2. |
| 71 | * WhenSheSmiles: Rio finds her adorable when she's happy. |
| 72 | |
| 73 | !Willpower (Macario Valdez) |
| 74 | Roxy's first actual and, for a time, only friend, Rio (as he goes by) has a near parallel personality to her: ostracized due to his scrappy attitude, eccentric quirkiness, and odd habits. Despite this, he and Roxy share a powerful bond as he was the first person she befriended on Earth. After moving away and coming back, Rio promised himself he would do everything he could to stop her from being alone again. |
| 75 | |
| 76 | As the superhero Willpower, he differs from other Kinetics by not using visible strength, but what he calls Xi energy. With it he's able to jump at great heights, run incredibly fast, and can perform various other abilities. |
| 77 | |
| 78 | * AdrenalineMakeover: He grows a goatee in the second half of part 1. |
| 79 | * AntiHero: Type I. |
| 80 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: He's a ton of fun, but don't deliberately hurt any of his friends (''especially'' Roxy). |
| 81 | * BlitheSpirit |
| 82 | * BoisterousBruiser |
| 83 | * BrilliantButLazy: Inverted. He's not very smart, but makes up for it by being a hard worker. |
| 84 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: Roxy is aware of this, which is why she has faith in him despite being frequently loony. |
| 85 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Has various lapses into non-sequitur. |
| 86 | * DareToBeBadass |
| 87 | * DeadpanSnarker: Every now and then later on; Roxy's (and Claire's) style of humor [[GotMeDoingIt is a bit contagious to him]]. |
| 88 | * DeathSeeker: Only at first. He wondered if his kinetic power would reveal itself if he was in danger of dying. As noted by Roxy, this is completely suicidal and he was lucky that he was right. |
| 89 | * {{Determinator}} |
| 90 | * DisappearedDad: His father died two years before he met Roxy. |
| 91 | * TheEmpath: Only toward Roxy, and to a certain extent. |
| 92 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine. |
| 93 | * FunPersonified |
| 94 | * GeniusDitz |
| 95 | * HeartIsAnAwesomePower |
| 96 | * HeroicSpirit |
| 97 | * HeroicWillpower: He's immune to Scaremonger's MindManipulation. |
| 98 | * ImaginationBasedSuperpower: His Xi allows him to do an assorted number of things if he puts his mind to it. |
| 99 | * InASingleBound: His "Rocket Jump" technique. |
| 100 | * JumpedAtTheCall: Rather he "ran all the way to New York, then jumped over the Empire State Building" at the call. |
| 101 | * {{Keet}} |
| 102 | * KidHero: Started being a hero just a couple months before turning 18. However, even nearing his twenties, he still often acts like a kid. |
| 103 | * KiManipulation: He uses his inner energy (he calls it Xi[[note]]pronounced like the letter "Z"[[/note]]) as a foil to Roxy's solar energy. |
| 104 | * TheLancer: Of the NumberTwo variety. |
| 105 | * LaserBlade: Eventually learns to wield two of them with Xi energy. |
| 106 | * LetsGetDangerous |
| 107 | * LivingEmotionalCrutch: For Roxy, who was emotionally devastated when he unexpectedly left, but gradually warmed up again after his return. |
| 108 | * ManicPixieDreamGirl: Male variant. |
| 109 | * TheMatchmaker: A non-romantic version for Roxy and Claire, whom he believed would make great friends. |
| 110 | * MeaningfulName: Macario and Espiridión (his middle name) mean happy and spirit, respectively, in Spanish. |
| 111 | * TheMcCoy |
| 112 | * MusclesAreMeaningless: He has next to none; justified due to using his Xi energy in combat. |
| 113 | * OneOfTheKids |
| 114 | * ThePollyanna |
| 115 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: [[InvertedTrope Except]] he's ([[BewareTheNiceOnes usually]]) incredibly friendly. |
| 116 | * SuperSpeed: Although he has a hard time stopping. |
| 117 | * TriangleShades: Often wears sunglasses as Willpower, although he's trying to invoke RuleOfCool. |
| 118 | * UnderstandingBoyfriend |
| 119 | |
| 120 | !Cannon Queen (Esther Claire Morlan) |
| 121 | A girl Rio befriends at school, Claire (she prefers to just go by her middle name) starts out as Roxy's inadvertent enemy for Rio's affection. Her personality being similar to Roxy, it allows her and Rio to get along just as well, with Roxy herself initially feeling threatened by her. It isn't until Roxy warms up that the two become best friends, [[SnarkToSnarkCombat if sometimes belligerent]]. |
| 122 | |
| 123 | As Cannon Queen, she uses her training under Tom and her self-made, multifarious weapon to become a force of nature without superpowers. |
| 124 | |
| 125 | * ActionGirl: After becoming Cannon Queen. |
| 126 | * AntiHero: Type III. |
| 127 | * AscendedExtra: Initially intended to be a GirlOfTheWeek character, she instead becomes a tritagonist of sorts. |
| 128 | * BadassBookworm |
| 129 | * BadassLongcoat |
| 130 | * BigDamnHeroes: In "Wedding Bell Blitz" |
| 131 | * TheBigGuy: Despite physically being the weakest member, her weapons make her the one prone to doing the most damage. |
| 132 | * CelibateHero: A variation; much like her inspired character, she isn't big on romantic relationships ([[CharacterDevelopment early on]]) and has very little interest in sexual activity. |
| 133 | * CreepyMonotone: Well, more like ''uneasy'' monotone. |
| 134 | * DeadpanSnarker |
| 135 | * EmotionlessGirl: Pre-character development. |
| 136 | * {{Expy}}: Based mainly on [[WesternAnimation/{{Daria}} Daria Morgendorffer]]; she bears the physical resemblance and has a similar personality (though it's later deconstructed). She also shares some similarities to ComicBook/IronMan; relying on her smarts and gadgets for her lack of superpowers (or, in Crow's case, the training to make up for it). |
| 137 | * FirstNameBasis: Mostly averted, as nearly everyone except her parents and Roxy (she invokes the FirstNameUltimatum when she highly demeans or praises her) refer to her by her middle name. |
| 138 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: Melancholic. |
| 139 | * GadgeteerGenius: Even more so than Tom, considering she made Gypsy. |
| 140 | * GoodIsNotNice: She trades the shyness Roxy has with even more hostility. |
| 141 | * {{Gunslinger}} |
| 142 | * ICallItVera: She calls her homemade weapon "Gypsy". |
| 143 | * {{Irony}}: She's regarded as the team's outcast, yet is the only thing linking Star and Willpower with Crow and Servo before they all meet. |
| 144 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Although she often acts more like a {{jerk|ass}} than Roxy. |
| 145 | * MeaningfulName: Her last name is an anagram for "normal". |
| 146 | * MuggleBornOfMages: Her father is Celestian, but she has none of the powers. [[BrattyTeenageDaughter Her sister]], however, may have them. |
| 147 | * NotSoStoic: Her moments of these are often seen after Tom's accident. |
| 148 | * RedheadInGreen |
| 149 | %%* ReplacementGoldfish: What Roxy believed her to be at first. |
| 150 | * TheSmartGuy: To a lesser extent than Servo. |
| 151 | * TheSnarkKnight |
| 152 | * TheSpock: Just replace "logic" with "common sense". |
| 153 | * StatuesqueStunner[=/=]HugeSchoolgirl: She's the tallest member of the team. |
| 154 | * SwissArmyWEapon: Her homemade instrument, Gypsy, which can transform and be used as a variety of attacks. |
| 155 | ** PlayingWithFire: Plasma Ray, the default mode. |
| 156 | ** AnIcePerson: Frost Beam. |
| 157 | ** ShockAndAwe[=/=]PowerFist: Electric Gauntlet. |
| 158 | ** HomingProjectile: Homing Missile. |
| 159 | ** WaveMotionGun[=/=]HandCannon: Neutron Cannon, [[{{Cooldown}} requires a ten minute recharge]]. |
| 160 | * SugarAndIcePersonality: Her kinder side only shows up mainly when she's under a lot of emotional stress, though it may briefly pop up elsewhere. |
| 161 | * TheTeamNormal: Only one out of the main five that isn't either a Kinetic or a non-Kinetic with [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower special training]]. |
| 162 | * TeenGenius |
| 163 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Roxy, type 2. |
| 164 | |
| 165 | * WrenchWench |
| 166 | |
| 167 | !Crow (Merle Dawson) |
| 168 | Merle is the only child of a young family of performing acrobats and a carefree one at that. Raised to be soft spoken and well mannered (although she may often not act as such), she prefers to stay positive in the face of adversity. In addition, she's quite popular with the boys in her school and has a talent in theater acting. After losing both her parents, she was adopted by her former babysitter Leila and, upon having learned her secret identity as Dusk Woman, wanted to follow in her footsteps as a superhero. |
| 169 | |
| 170 | As Crow, she is highly agile and takes any opportunity to strike. |
| 171 | |
| 172 | * ActionGirl |
| 173 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: Kind of hard to tell her ethnicity, but she's a mix of Indian and Native American. |
| 174 | * AntiHero: Albeit a more friendly example. |
| 175 | * BadassNormal[=/=]CharlesAtlasSuperpower |
| 176 | * ButtMonkey: Anytime where someone gets beat up for laughs, it's probably going to be her. |

| 189 | * HormoneAddledTeenager: Very much one, with no help from her hedonistic view of life. Including, but not limited to, the following tropes (although she isn't as sexually explicit as most of the examples; ie, most of these are [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]]) |

| 201 | %%* SheFu |

| 204 | |
| 205 | !Sonic Servo/Servo Seer (Thomas Richter) |
| 206 | A kid about Merle's age, Tom (as many call him) is a super-intelligent Kinetic with the power of sound/vibration. He led a rather normal life until he saved Merle from an abusive date, which she repaid him for by revealing her superhero identity. Near the end of part 1, he develops a romantic relationship with Claire and helps her become a hero. |
| 207 | |
| 208 | As Sonic Servo, he uses his power both as shock absorbers and as a dangerous weapon. After being paralyzed from the waist down, he becomes Servo Seer, playing a new role as the team's MissionControl. |

| 329 | !Dusk Woman (Leila Ross) |
| 330 | A young cosmetic prodigy who, in just 5 years, became a millionaire in the fashion industry. However, beneath her desire to help people look as good on the outside as they are on the inside, she felt compelled to search for her parents' murderers and find the motive behind it. However, after taking custody of a newly orphaned Merle, she realized how pointless it would be and gave up her quest to help raise her foster child, who wants to become a superhero as well. |
| 331 | |
