| 16 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_cassandrasavage.png]] |
| 17 | !!!'''Species:''' Metahuman |
| 18 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ZehraFazal |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Vandal Savage's daughter and a member of the League of Shadows. |
| 21 | ---- |
| 22 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: Cassandra has a noticeably darker skin tone than her father, but lighter than her sister. She's clearly mixed-race, as her father is a caveman from some part of Europe, but her mother's ethnicity is unclear. |
| 23 | * AnArmAndALeg: In season 4 she's lost an arm, allegedly due to failing her father. Onyx claims it's from a failed mission to capture Killer Croc. [[spoiler:Subverted later on when it’s revealed in "The Lady, or the Tigress?" that she was faking it and the rest of her injuries with a glamour charm to make her story about being a defector more believable.]] |
| 24 | * AntiVillain: Cassandra genuinely believes in her father as a hero and savior, and regards fighting beside him as defending the Earth, not unlike any of the Team feel when they fight alongside their Justice League mentors. She's also fond of her sister Olympia, [[spoiler:expresses shock when Savage euthanises her]], and mentions a friendship with [[spoiler:Tara Markov]] that was formed while the two trained with the League of Shadows, expressing disappointment at [[spoiler:Tara's]] absence from Santa Prisca. |
| 25 | * BodyHorror: Season 4 shows she has had her arm viciously mutilated and half her face scarred. Allegedly this is because her father punished her for rebellion. [[spoiler:It’s a total lie to gain sympathy from the heroes and she’s perfectly healthy.]] |
| 26 | * CanonImmigrant: Cassandra Savage first appeared in ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'', and was herself a CompositeCharacter of Kassidy Savage and Scandal Savage. |
| 27 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:Although she quickly justifies it as merciful, Cassandra is clearly shocked at seeing her father kill Olympia.]] |
| 28 | * TheStoic: Unlike her more eccentric older sister, Cassandra is much more serious. |
| 29 | * VillainousFriendship: In "Exceptional Human Beings", Cassandra mentions taking a liking to [[spoiler:Tara Markov]] during their training with the other Shadows. |

| 33 | !!''Olympia Savage'' |
| 34 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_olympiasavage.png]] |
| 35 | !!!'''Species:''' Metahuman |
| 36 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JeniferLewis |
| 37 | |
| 38 | The elderly daughter of Vandal Savage. |
| 39 | ---- |
| 40 | * AntiVillain: Only a "villain" in the sense that she's entirely loyal to [[BigBad Vandal Savage]], and even then, Olympia never commits any villainous deeds in her screentime, and her loyalty to Savage is based almost entirely in her adoration of her beloved father. |
| 41 | * CanonForeigner: Olympia does not exist in [=DC=] Comics, nor did she exist in the first pass of episode 7's script. Vietti conceived of her and added her in rewrites. |
| 42 | * DaddysGirl: She has an almost childlike enthusiasm for her father's story, openly regards him as a savior, and is clearly much beloved by Vandal in turn. [[spoiler:Vandal ends her life out of fear her senility will derail his plans, cradling his daughter as she dies and insisting that she be given a funeral worthy of the gods.]] |
| 43 | * DeadpanSnarker: Olympia quips about Kalibak's "daddy issues" after her father riles the brute about lacking Darkseid's favor. |
| 44 | * MercyKill: [[spoiler:Savage asks her to tell him about her favorite story and quickly kills her before she realizes what's happening]]. Cassandra quickly rationalizes it as this trope. |
| 45 | * NeckSnap: [[spoiler:Vandal ends his daughter's life by quickly snapping her neck to ensure that she dies with minimal pain or realisation of what's happening.]] |
| 46 | * ScatterbrainedSenior: She has grown senile from old age. She asks Cassandra three times if she's read the same story, notices the second attacking fleet but just stares calmly at the screen instead of immediately bringing it to Vandal's attention, and Vandal's dialogue implies that he's told her multiple times not to record his life story. |
| 47 | * SheKnowsTooMuch: [[spoiler:Part of the reason Savage kills Olympia is because her senility makes her a liability. She keeps recording his life story despite repeatedly being told not to, and his plans have yet to come to fruition]]. |

| 53 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yji_mercygraves.png]] |
| 54 | !!!'''Species''': Cybernetically-enhanced human |
| 55 | |
| 56 | Lex Luthor's assistant and bodyguard. |
| 57 | ---- |
| 58 | * AdaptationalBadass: Mercy isn't normally depicted as a cyborg with a laser arm cannon. She's also competent enough to fight Arsenal and give him some serious trouble. |
| 59 | * AmbiguouslyHuman: There's discussion as to just how much of her is human. She seems to be MadeOfIron, taking far more damage than the average human, she barely speaks and follows Lex blindly and with little to no emotion, and Lex's intense trust in her is a bit surprising. On the other hand, she does bleed, but only after being thrown into a car so hard the car is totaled. |
| 60 | * AnArmAndALeg: Gets her cybernetic right arm blown off courtesy of Arsenal. |
| 61 | * ArmCannon: Her right arm can turn into a [[EnergyWeapon laser cannon]]. |
| 62 | * ArtificialLimbs: Her right arm. |
| 63 | * BattleButler: She's Lex's right hand woman and his bodyguard as need be. |
| 64 | * BodyguardBabes: To Luthor. |
| 65 | * CombatStilettos: Mind you, she didn't get dressed intended for combat, but she never wears anything other than high heels. |
| 66 | * {{Cyborg}}: [[WordOfGod Greg Weisman]] confirmed on [[LineToGod Ask Greg]] that Mercy is one and has at least one cybernetic limb. |
| 67 | * DarkActionGirl: She kicks some serious ass. |
| 68 | * TheDragon: To Lex Luthor. As befitting the trope, she fights so he doesn't have to. |
| 69 | * EmotionlessGirl: Doesn't display any emotion over the course of the series. |
| 70 | * UndyingLoyalty: Mercy seems to be a very loyal, caring and protective bodyguard to Luthor. She performs multiple tasks that range from driving Luthor around to dressing him up and safeguarding his life. |
| 71 | * TheVoiceless: This is the only incarnation of Mercy Graves who never says a single word. Most likely, the number of times she has been given cybernetic updates by Luthor has reduced her state to the point where she can't even speak. |

| 77 | !!!'''Species:''' Gorilla |
| 78 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DeeBradleyBaker |
| 79 | |
| 80 | Monsieur Mallah is an intellectually enhanced gorilla who works under the Brain. |
| 81 | ---- |
| 82 | * AlliterativeName: '''M'''onsieur '''M'''allah. |
| 83 | * TheDragon: To the Brain. |
| 84 | * GatlingGood: Uses a minigun in battle. |
| 85 | * GeniusBruiser: Doesn't say much, but he was prepped to assist in brain surgery. |
| 86 | * KillerGorilla: A given, as he's the Brain's bodyguard and enforcer. |
| 87 | * MightyGlacier: Big and strong, but rather slow physically, as would be expected for a gorilla. |
| 88 | * TheQuisling: He betrayed his fellow gorillas to work for their captor, the Brain. |

| 92 | !!''Sumaan Harjavti'' |
| 93 | !!!'''Species:''' Human |
| 94 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarkRolston |
| 95 | |
| 96 | The brother of the Qurac President Rumaan Harjavti, secretly in league with Queen Bee. He assists her in annexing his country, in exchange for a prominent position. |
| 97 | ---- |
| 98 | * AssInAmbassador: For betraying his brother and selling out his country, he gets made ambassador, serving as Queen Bee's mouthpiece at the UN (such as complaining about why no Bialyian heroes have been invited to the Justice League). |
| 99 | * CainAndAbel: Somewhere after the time-skip between season 1 and 2, his brother Rumaan is dead, and Sumaan is not. |
| 100 | * EngineeredHeroics: As part of Queen Bee's schemes, he takes a bullet during an attempt on his brother's life. Except the attempt was never meant to kill Rumaan, just make Sumaan look good. |
| 101 | |

| 105 | An underground (literally) genetic engineering lab formerly run by Dr. Mark Desmond and later by the hero, the Guardian. The lab is responsible for creating Superboy from Superman's stolen DNA. The Board of Directors are actually the leaders of The Light. |

| 111 | !!!'''Mark Desmond voiced by:''' Creator/ReneAuberjonois\ |
| 112 | '''Blockbuster voiced by:''' Creator/DeeBradleyBaker (Series), Creator/GregWeisman (''Legacy'') |
| 113 | |
| 114 | The former head of Washington's Cadmus Labs before becoming Blockbuster. |
| 115 | ---- |
| 116 | * AdaptationalUgliness: He's considerably more monstrous in appearance than both the Mark and Roland Desmond Blockbusters of the comics. |
| 117 | * ArcVillain: The main antagonist of the two-part series premiere. |
| 118 | * BloodKnight: Joins Kylstar and other bruisers to re-take his home planet to get "glorious battle". |
| 119 | * BodyHorror: His transformation involves his ''skin ripping off''. |
| 120 | * DeathOfPersonality: Transforming himself into Blockbuster destroys Desmond's mind and reduces him to a mindless, feral brute. |
| 121 | * MadScientist: An evil geneticist who specialises in cloning. |
| 122 | * {{Metamorphosis}}: It appears his transformation is permanent. |
| 123 | * MindControl: Uses the G-Gnomes to suppress the wills of his co-workers and their subjects. |
| 124 | * OneWingedAngel: After he drinks the [[PsychoSerum blockbuster formula]], he transforms from a middle-aged scientist to a large, grotesque monster. |
| 125 | * PainfulTransformation: His transformation into Blockbuster looked very painful. |
| 126 | * PutOnABus: In season two. Explained in the comic tie-in as having joined Kylstar's posse to liberate his home planet. |
| 127 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: In his Blockbuster form. |
| 128 | * SmugSnake: Very confident in his control over Superboy and the power of Project Blockbuster. Neither work out well for Desmond. |
| 129 | * TheSpeechless: After his transformation, he appears to be incapable of human speech. |
| 130 | * StarterVillain: The first villain the Team faces. |
| 131 | * SuperStrength: Strong enough to give Superboy a pounding. |
| 132 | * SuperToughness: He's so tough, that he had to have a building fall on him just to knock him out. |
| 133 | * TwoFirstNames: His last name is more common as a first name. |

| 142 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_dubbilex.png]] |
| 143 | %%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]] |
| 144 | !!!'''Species:''' Genomorph |
| 145 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/PhilLaMarr |
| 146 | |
| 147 | Dubbilex is a genomorph, a G-Goblin created by Project Cadmus. |
| 148 | ---- |
| 149 | * AdaptationPersonalityChange: He was more bumbling and out of his element than sneaky in the original comics and not nearly so enigmatic, though he did have his moments. |
| 150 | * AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: In the comics he was very much a father/responsible older brother figure to Kon-El, one of Kon's most trusted friends and the one who stayed with him the longest out of all of Kon's supporting cast in ''ComicBook/{{Superboy|1994}}''. Here they interact briefly and Conner is suspicious of Dubbilex's behavior. |
| 151 | * CompositeCharacter: [[spoiler:"Dabney Donovan" is an alias used by Dubbilex while disguising himself from humans as opposed to a separate person who was a MadScienist.]] |
| 152 | * CreepyMonotone: Though he turns out to be not such a bad guy at all. |
| 153 | * EnigmaticMinion: To Cadmus, though he turns out to be secretly working against them. |
| 154 | * LaResistance: Believes in acquiring freedom for all genomorphs, even subtly aiding Superboy's escape to help his own cause. |
| 155 | * MindOverMatter: He has telekinesis. |
| 156 | * PowerGlows: His horns glow red when he's using his powers. |
| 157 | * RaceLift: [[spoiler:Dabney Donovan, who was a separate person from Dubbilex in the comics, was a white guy. The guise Dubbilex assumes when posing as Donovan here is black.]] |
| 158 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: A subversion since even though he has red eyes, he really isn't one of the bad guys. |
| 159 | * {{Telepathy}}: He's a telepath. |
| 160 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Doesn't appear after Season 1, so it's unknown whether he led his fellow Genomorphs to freedom. But presumably Cadmus isn't affiliated with the Light anymore, if it exists at all, since the Light is relying other Evil Science facilities in later seasons. He finally shows up again in season 3, as mayor of a town he and his fellow Genomorphs founded with the League's help so aliens would have somewhere they could stay on Earth without fear of persecution. |

| 166 | %%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]] |
| 167 | !!!'''Species:''' Kryptonian clone |
| 168 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/NolanNorth |
| 169 | |
| 170 | Match (named after the project that created him) is a genomorph, and was Cadmus and the Light's first attempt at cloning Superman. |
| 171 | ---- |
| 172 | * BerserkButton: Anyone else wearing an "S" on their chest. |
| 173 | * TheBerserker: Match is too feral and insane to even speak, let alone use any kind of strategy in battle. |
| 174 | * BlackEyesOfCrazy: Looks exactly like Superboy, except his eyes have black sclera. |
| 175 | * BodyHorror: Thanks to CloneDegeneration, Match is left as a deformed monstrosity. |
| 176 | * CloneDegeneration: During the five-year skip. His right arm, left leg, and head become disfigured and deformed, and his skin is now pale. In the comic mini-series ''Targets'', which takes place five years later, his limbs have swelled much further, making it difficult for him to move or fly. |
| 177 | * CompositeCharacter: Comics Match mixed with S-01, as well as a little Superboy-Prime and certain incarnations of Bizarro. |
| 178 | ** More powerful clone of Superboy -- Match. |
| 179 | ** Cadmus's first attempt to clone Superman which failed due to his instability -- S-01 or "Bizarre-O". |
| 180 | ** Flawed Kryptonian clone, mirror-image S -- Bizarro. In the tie-in comic, he also becomes more deformed and gains the pale skin. |
| 181 | ** "Original" Superboy, Black sclera, burning the S onto his chest with heat vision -- Superboy-Prime. |
| 182 | * EvilCounterpart: |
| 183 | ** To Superboy -- Both are clones of Superman and were created by Cadmus (by the Light's order) to ensure a replacement for the Man of Steel. They even are given the same character introduction -- being released by a member(s) of the Team and then beating them up as a result. However, Superboy only has a few of Superman's powers and learns how to control his anger; Match has ''all'' of Superman's powers but is feral and lacks control. |
| 184 | ** To Superman -- Both have the same powers but while Superman is a controlled AllLovingHero, Match is an insane [[TheBerserker Berserker]]. |
| 185 | * FlawedPrototype: To Superboy. While Match has all of Superman's powers, he is also uncontrollably insane and his body becomes more distorted and twisted over time. |
| 186 | * FlyingBrick: Unlike Superboy, Match has all of Superman's powers. |
| 187 | * GoodCostumeSwitch: In the final issue of ''Targets'', [[spoiler: Match is rescued by Superboy and healed from Kryptonite poisoning, wearing a new version of his white healing suit rather than the red suit he wore when working for Lex and Onslaught.]] |
| 188 | * MeaningfulName: The point of the cloning project was, in Luthor's words, for Superman to "meet his match". |
| 189 | * PsychoPrototype: Match was Cadmus' first attempt to clone Superman. However, during the project it was discovered that human science and technology cannot fully read Kryptonian DNA, which caused gaps in the DNA sequences. The incomplete DNA somehow turned Match into a mentally insane berserker that can't be controlled, which is why Cadmus put him on ice and tried again. |
| 190 | * ScreamingWarrior: His dialogue is nothing but shouts and grunts. |
| 191 | * TheSpeechless: He seems unable to form words. |
| 192 | * SuperStrength: Just like Superboy except he is much stronger. |
| 193 | * VillainDecay: He goes from being a difficult opponent due to having Superman's full power-set to being suffocated easily by Batgirl and being easily defeated by Metallo's Kryptonite. This is likely because his mind degeneration and increasing mass makes him easier to outsmart and difficult for him to fly or move around. |

| 210 | |
| 211 | Kobra is a supervillain who considers himself to be a living god, the Lord Naga-Naga. He is the leader of the pseudo-religious criminal organization, the Cult of the Kobra. |
| 212 | ---- |
| 213 | * ArrogantKungFuGuy: Kobra comes off as haughty, confident and very prideful. |
| 214 | * BaldOfEvil: No hair, and a criminal cult leader and agent of the Light. |
| 215 | * AGodAmI: He considers himself a living god and makes every attempt to act like one. |
| 216 | * InTheHood: Wears a hooded cape that resembles a king cobra's hood. |
| 217 | * KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Is finally apprehended sometime before season four by the Outsiders. |
| 218 | * OneWingedAngel: In the comic tie-in, he orchestrates a human sacrifice on his twin brother to become a [[ScaledUp giant snake-man.]] |
| 219 | * RankScalesWithAsskicking: Proves to be ''very much'' superior to Robin in combat. He basically just ''stands still'' whilst blocking all of his attacks. |
| 220 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: He has red eyes, seemingly the result of albinism, and is an evil cult leader. |
| 221 | * TheStoic: The most emotion he shows is mild annoyance at the Team's interference. |
| 222 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: Kobra never wears a shirt. |
| 223 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Despite being set up as one of the main minions of the Light alongside Sportsmaster early on, he only appears in one episode and one comic, and then never appears or is mentioned again, and after the timeskip his minions are working for Queen Bee without explanation. He finally makes a return in a flashback in season 4 when he is beaten by the Outsiders. |

| 234 | !!!'''Species:''' Metahuman |

| 236 | |
| 237 | Psimon is an agent of Queen Bee. |
| 238 | ---- |
| 239 | * AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the comics, Psimon is a serious contender for the “worst person on Earth” award in all three main DC continuities. This version of Psimon is still a villain, but it’s hard to picture him trying to nuke Canada or committing mass murder just because someone was rude to him. |
| 240 | * ArchEnemy: To Miss Martian. |
| 241 | * BaldOfEvil: He has no hair, revealing his transparent skull, and is a master of the MindRape on whoever is unlucky enough to wind up in his crosshairs (not to mention he's working for a dictator). |
| 242 | * ButtMonkey: Things tend to go wrong for him whenever he appears. |
| 243 | * CharacterCatchphrase: "Psimon says." |
| 244 | * CombatPragmatist: When he faces M'gann again after the timeskip, he immediately takes her on despite his previous loss. When called on this by Icicle Jr., he points out that he can keep her occupied long enough for his cronies to dispatch her now-defenseless body. Doesn't work out, of course, but the strategy was sound. |
| 245 | * TheDragon: To Queen Bee. |
| 246 | * EvilCounterpart: To M'gann. He's got all the same PsychicPowers but none of the ethical restraints she possesses. |
| 247 | * HeKnowsTooMuch: When he gets dangerously close to discovering her and Aqualad's treachery, Tigress puts him in a coma. |
| 248 | * InTheHood: He wears a hoodie and occasionally uses the hood to hide his [[MyBrainisBig big brain]]. |
| 249 | * LaserGuidedAmnesia: If he gets into your mind, he can do this to you! |
| 250 | * LetsGetDangerous: He's cheerful and relaxed in "Bereft"; though dangerous nonetheless, he doesn't think of the team as a threat. It's the same in "Image", except in this instance he's using Miss Martian's fears against her, which backfires horribly. In "Beneath", he's no-nonsense and brutal. |
| 251 | * MindOverMatter: Can also do this, but doesn't very often. |
| 252 | * MindRape: He and Miss Martian take turns doing this to each other. The first time he does it he manages to get the whole Team in one go. |
| 253 | * MyBrainIsBig: His swelled, telepathic brain is visible under his transparent scalp. |
| 254 | * PetTheDog: As a favor to Manta, he is called in to fix Kaldur after his MindRape. Though it is spoiled by Tigress putting him into a coma when he finds out her and Aqualad's true allegiance. |
| 255 | * RelationshipUpgrade: Seems to be the case in season 3 as he calls Devastation "My love" while expressing concern about her while she is fighting. |
| 256 | * SurroundedByIdiots: He had a solid plan and good improvisation in "Beneath", unfortunately "Stab Miss Martian while I keep her occupied" was too complicated for Icicle Jr. to handle. |
| 257 | * {{Telepathy}}: He's a telepath, more skilled but not as strong as Miss Martian. |

| 268 | |
| 269 | Devastation is a supervillain, and a known associate of Queen Bee. |
| 270 | ---- |
| 271 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: Would appear to be Psimon's. At the very least, his reaction to her advances is that of unease. |
| 272 | * AdaptationalCurves: She has a noticeably more muscular build than her comic incarnation. |
| 273 | * ArtificialHuman: WordOfGod has her as being only one year old in Season One, indicating she has the same backstory as in the comics, created by [[OurTitansAreDifferent the Titans]] to be an EvilCounterpart to Wonder Woman. |
| 274 | * BrawnHilda: She's large, domineering, aggressive, and intimidating yet attractive and beautiful, not to mention that Psimon doesn't exactly look like he enjoys the fact that she has the hots for him (at first). |
| 275 | * TheBrute: But ''[[SmarterThanYouLook not]]'' [[DumbMuscle stupid]] (or at least not overtly so). In fact, upon discovering Wonder Girl in "Beneath", she's the first to catch on to the presence of the other members of the Team. |
| 276 | * InASingleBound: She can jump really high. Useful for catching stray Wonder Girls. |
| 277 | * MinionShipping: While one-sided, her lines and [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace behavior]] towards Psimon in "Beneath" indicate some sort of attraction on her part. [[MayDecemberRomance Doesn't even seem to mind that Psimon's got a good twenty years on her.]] See also: BrainsAndBrawn, TinyGuyHugeGirl. |

| 279 | * MsFanservice: She's very beautiful and pretty despite being a BrawnHilda. |
| 280 | * NoSell: Subverted. Initially able to completely shrug off a stream of electricity from Black Lightning, which had just KO'ed the Terror Twins mere moments ago. ("Ha! Tickles.") At least until Black Lightning turned up the juice enough to make her pass out. |
| 281 | * RelationshipUpgrade: Looks like Psimon finally gave her a chance in season 3, with him referring to her as his love and her being even more affectionate with him (when he's knocked out) to the point of planting kisses on him. |
| 282 | * SmugSnake: Very confident, but ultimately fails to back up her boasts and loses to Wonder Girl. |
| 283 | * SmugSuper: [[BadassBoast "Do you really think you stand a chance, Blondie? I've gone toe-to-toe with the actual Wonder Woman!"]] |

| 285 | * SuperToughness: And as tough. |
| 286 | * TattooedCrook: Sports thorn tattoos across the left side of her face, as well as her left arm. |
| 287 | * WouldHurtAChild: She's quite open about how she'd like to kill Wonder Girl. |
| 288 | * YoungerThanTheyLook: ''Much'' younger. [[http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=15578 According to]] WordOfGod, she's only '''1''' by the end of Season 1. [[note]]Going by her backstory in the comics, Devastation is, in most aspects, [[EvilCounterpart the "anti-Wonder Woman"]]; she was a clay figure breathed to life by Cronus to serve as his champion with the hopes of besting Olympus's own champion, Wondy herself.[[/note]] |

| 361 | * AdaptationalDumbass: While not a genius scientist like his father, Cam is clever enough in the comics, not the absolute dunce he is in the show. |
| 362 | * AdaptationalJerkass: While his comic counterpart was still a jerk, he also felt TrappedInVillainy due to his appearance and genuine camaraderie with his teammates, and even expressed a wish that he could be a hero. Here, while he definitely has standards, he's a lot less sympathetic. He seems to have mellowed out in Season 3, though, even sincerely congratulating Superboy on [[spoiler: his engagement]]. |
| 363 | * AffablyEvil: His amiable interactions with Superboy are sincere. |
| 364 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: {{Justified|Trope}}. His skin is light blue (with or without activating his powers) because he was born with cyrokinetic powers. |
| 365 | * BeardOfEvil: He's grown a chinstrap between Seasons 2-3, though he seems to actually be somewhat less evil. |

| 369 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: From when Superboy and Miss Martian kissed while disguised as brother and sister, it becomes apparent that whatever sort of wrong he is, he draws the line at incest. |
| 370 | * FriendlyEnemy: When he and Superboy cross paths in Season 3, he recognizes Conner through his mask, and gives him sincere congratulations for his relationship [[spoiler:and recent engagement]] with M'gann; saying he thought they made a great couple, and that it gives him hope for himself, and Superboy in turn hopes he does find someone. [[CasualDangerDialogue While in the middle of fighting each other]]. [[spoiler:He even attends Conner and M'gann's wedding in "Death and Rebirth."]] |
| 371 | * AnIcePerson: Icicle has the ability to create large ice crystals from his own body, and freeze the air around him to create various obstacles. He has demonstrated the ability to sling crystals great distances, which freeze whatever they strike on contact. He can also shoot light blue beams of ice. |
| 372 | * IcyBlueEyes: He has blue eyes, and while he be a comic relief, he's still a villain. |

| 376 | * MinionWithAnFInEvil: One explanation for his failure to kill M'gann and his generally benign personality in "Terrors". |

| 378 | * ShipperOnDeck: Apparently he's one for M'gann and Superboy despite still being a bit bitter over them tricking him in season 1, he thought they would make a good couple and is happy for [[spoiler:their engagement.]] |
| 379 | * TookALevelInBadass: In "Darkest", he's not the wimpy big mouth he was in Season 1. Now, he has some muscle and is more of a threat. |

| 459 | * InkSuitActor: The Joker is drawn to resemble a younger version of his VA, Creator/BrentSpiner. In fact, his outfit and shaggy hairdo are a [[ShoutOut direct reference]] to Spiner's first professional appearance in Series/NightCourt (though with The Joker's color scheme, naturally). |

| 499 | ---- |
| 500 | * AdaptationalBadass: Goes from joke villain to leader of the Injustice League. His return in ''Outsiders'' also shows this, being a man who genuinely spells trouble and terror in others, while also being a calculating mastermind. |
| 501 | * AmbitionIsEvil: Count Vertigo's villainy is driven by his desire to become ''King'' Vertigo. He's prepared to murder his own niece or help Baron Bedlam take over Markovia in order to make that happen. |
| 502 | * AristocratsAreEvil: ''Count'' Vertigo is a murderous supervillain and would-be usurper to the royal throne of Vlatava, who dismisses commoners as being "peasants". And appropriately enough, in Season 3 he teams up with another evil nobleman, Baron Bedlam of Markovia, helping each other to seize power over their respective countries. |
| 503 | * BadBoss: As part of Bedlam, he constantly threatens his underlings with death when things go wrong. |
| 504 | * BoringButPractical: His only power is to disorient people, but it's extremely effective considering it will work on ''any'' opponent, regardless of their power. Kryptonians, Martians, speedsters all succumb to his deadly "vertigo" and collapse on the ground. |
| 505 | * TheBusCameBack: After being arrested in his second appearance, Count Vertigo returns in ''Outsiders'' as a recurring antagonist. |
| 506 | * CainAndAbel: He murdered his own brother, the Vlatavan king. |
| 507 | * CaneSword: Wields one, which, according to Perdita, is an heirloom of Vlatava's royal family. |
| 508 | * CharactersCatchphrase: "''Count'' Vertigo to you, peasant!" |
| 509 | * TheChessmaster: "Coldhearted" shows him at his finest. |
| 510 | * ClothesMakeTheSuperman: His "vertigo" ability comes from a special piece of headgear. |
| 511 | * CombatPragmatist: He uses his powers to gain an upper hand in battle. |
| 512 | * DiplomaticImpunity: The reason why he isn't arrested with the rest of the Injustice League, as revealed in "Coldhearted". Unfortunately for him, he loses this as he is tricked by Kid Flash into revealing the truth. |
| 513 | * TheDragon: To Baron Bedlam upon his return in ''Outsiders''. |
| 514 | * EngineeredPublicConfession: Tricked into one of these in "Coldhearted" after the queen presumably had died. |
| 515 | * TheEvilPrince: Or rather, an Evil ''Count''. |
| 516 | * EvilUncle: He tried to kill Perdita, his own niece and the queen of his country, in order to gain the throne for himself. |
| 517 | * FauxAffablyEvil: He acts the part of a cultured nobleman, but that falls apart when his plans start to fail. |
| 518 | * GracefulLoser: At least when the Injustice League is defeated, because he knew his diplomatic immunity would keep him out of prison. Not so much in "Coldhearted", where he tries to kill Perdita after having his title and immunity taken away from him. |
| 519 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: If he and the Light hadn't gone so ''far'' in attempting to kill his niece (including Vandal Savage distracting Kid Flash for 15 minutes), it would not have led to Wally discovering his involvement in the plot and - more importantly - successfully tricking him into confessing his high treason. This leads to Perdita revoking his diplomatic immunity and his being thrown into Belle Reve, which he'd originally avoided. |
| 520 | * InsistentTerminology: He's not trying to murder Perdita... |
| 521 | -->'''Count Vertigo''': It's called ''regicide''. |
| 522 | * KarmaHoudini: Thus far, Vertigo has evaded justice for his crimes and is still on the loose. |
| 523 | * NonActionGuy: Downplayed by the fact that he isn't entirely helpless, but his only power is his ability to induce vertigo on others, which is admittedly strong as he can hold down heavy hitters with it. However, he's a physical normal and doesn't have much in direct combat skills, and relies mainly on leadership, planning, weapons, and others to carry out the heavy lifting. While he can ''hold'' people with his power, he's much less skilled at ''fighting'' others directly all by himself. |

| 525 | * TheSociopath: He had no qualms about trying to murder his own niece for the sake of power, all while pretending to be concerned over her health. He takes it a step further in ''Outsiders'', where Vertigo has dispensed with any pretensions of nobility, shamelessly participates in ([[SuperhumanTrafficking meta]]){{human traffick|ers}}ing of innocent children, and repeatedly threatens to kill his subordinates for any mistake, all so that he can ultimately get the throne he's always wanted. |

| 528 | * TheyCallMeMrTibbs: "''Count'' Vertigo to you, peasant!" (Who let him keep his title, anyway?) |
| 529 | * VillainTeamUp: The leader of the Injustice League. His second appearance heavily implies he's a high-ranking ally of the Light, given all the trouble they go to in order to secure the Vlatava throne for him -- though they quickly abandon him once his diplomatic immunity is revoked. ''Outsiders'' sees him working with the Bedlam Syndicate. |
| 530 | * WhiteHairBlackHeart: White-blond hair on a man willing to murder his own pre-teen niece to usurp his home country's throne. |
| 531 | * WouldHurtAChild: He plots to kill his own 10-year-old niece in "Coldhearted". Taken even further in ''Outsiders'', [[spoiler:when he is revealed to be one of the leaders of Project Bedlam, which is conducting dangerous lab experiments on metahuman children, which have a damn high fatality rate.]] |

| 636 | |
| 637 | Baron Frederick [=DeLamb=] a.k.a. Baron Bedlam is the brother of Ilona [=DeLamb=]-Markov as well as the brother-in-law of the king of Markovia. He is the commander of the security forces of Markovia and is also the head of Bedlam. |
| 638 | ---- |
| 639 | * AdaptationalBadass: His metahuman powers makes him tough enough to toe-to-toe with the likes of Geo-Force and Superboy, whereas his comics counterpart is strictly a normal. |
| 640 | * AdaptationalSpeciesChange: Became a metahuman instead of a BadassNormal like in the comics. |
| 641 | * ArcVillain: He's the main antagonist for the first three episodes of ''Outsiders''. |
| 642 | * AristocratsAreEvil: ''Baron'' Bedlam is a murderous supervillain who plans the assassinations of his own sister and brother-in-law, the Queen and King, with the ultimate goal of seizing control over Markovia. And appropriately enough, he even teams up with another evil nobleman, Count Vertigo of Vlatava, helping each other to seize power over their respective countries. |
| 643 | * AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Given all the vile deeds he's done over the course of the third season, it's hard to feel sorry for him when Brion kills him. In fact, the heroes seemed more concerned about how Brion killed him rather than the fact that he died.]] |
| 644 | * BlatantLies: Tries claiming he made himself a metahuman as a spur-of-the-moment decision after his brother in-law and sister were murdered, but Gregor immediately shoots this down by pointing out he fights too well with his powers for someone who just got them. |
| 645 | * CainAndAbel: He had both his [[SiblingMurder sister]] and brother-in-law assassinated as part of his own grab for power. |
| 646 | * CurbStompBattle: Dishes one out to Brion during their first fight....and is on the receiving end when Superboy knocks him on his ass in 5 moves (tellingly Bedlam runs for the door rather than face Superboy again.) |
| 647 | * CruelAndUnusualDeath: [[spoiler:Brion drowns/burns him to death by shoving lava down his throat until it's coming out of his ears, nose, and eyes.]] |
| 648 | * DevilInPlainSight: Downplayed. While he doesn't do anything to encourage it himself, it's obvious that he had the most to gain from the King and Queen's deaths, and so most of the characters suspect him of foul play long before his true colors are revealed. |
| 649 | * DirtyCoward: He has no problem mocking Brion and calling him weak during their rematch yet immediately runs for the door when faced with the prospect of fighting Superboy (someone who has already kicked his ass once). |
| 650 | * EvilMakesYouUgly: As befitting for a [[BitchInSheepsClothing two-faced]] [[FauxAffablyEvil sociopath]] like himself, he is hiding his true appearance after his own secret metahuman transformation, which [[TakenForGranite turned his skin into stone]] (he wears a fake skin to cover his changed body). [[BeneathTheMask Underneath his charade]] of being a ReasonableAuthorityFigure, he is [[EvilMakesYouMonstrous both figuratively and literally a monster]]. |
| 651 | * EvilUncle: [[RelatedInTheAdaptation In this universe]], Bedlam is the uncle of Gregor, Brion, and Tara Markov. He was willing to have [[SiblingMurder his own sister and brother-in-law murdered]] and kidnapped, experimented on, and sold his niece as a slave [[spoiler:to the League of Shadows]]. Then when his plans take an unpredictable turn, he tries to have his nephew framed for his crimes (see below). |
| 652 | * FrameUp: After learning that Brion was captured in the hospital and gained superpowers, he tries to cover his tracks by framing his own nephew for the metahuman trafficking conspiracy. It soon falls apart though when Bedlam reveals his own powers, which leads to Gregor correctly deducing that his uncle was responsible for all those crimes. |
| 653 | * HateSink: Stands out as one of the vilest and most repulsive villains in the series. Not only is he behind the metahuman trafficking of children, [[spoiler:he has his own sister and brother-in-law murdered, and their children turned into metahumans]]. |
| 654 | * {{Hypocrite}}: HOO YEAH! He paints himself as a reasonable authority figure while orchestrating the not only the murders and/or kidnapping of his relatives but running a mass trafficking ring that kills enough children to warrant mass graves. He also makes bigoted comments against Quaraci while hiring one to kill his sister and brother in law and calls Brion weak while running from a stronger opponent. |
| 655 | * KickTheDog: Calls the Markovs "orphans" when HE was the one who orphaned them. |
| 656 | * KnightOfCerebus: While the series always had its fair share of dark moments in the first two seasons, [=DeLamb=]'s vile actions quickly establishes the DarkerAndEdgier tone of the third season. |
| 657 | * KnowWhenToFoldThem: The first thing he does when he sees Superboy (the guy who kicked his ass in single combat) with backup is run for the door. Given how badly Superboy kicked his ass the first time they fought it's a smart move on his part. |
| 658 | * OutOfFocus: Frederick is showcased as a major villain for Season 3, but gets shoved under the rug in-universe and out when [[spoiler:Granny Goodness suddenly enacts her plan mid-season and becomes a much more pressing threat. Any real focus on Frederick doesn't return until the season finale, [[BackForTheDead which is also when he dies]]]]. |
| 659 | * PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Implied. He hired a Quraci assassin as a pretense to screen all Quraci refugees for the metagene, and empowered the military to use "[[DeadlyEuphemism extreme tactics]]" to ensure their cooperation. While it could just be a scheme to kidnap more metahumans, it comes off as being racist (especially given the rampant xenophobia against Quracis in Markovia). |
| 660 | * PostFinalBoss: [=DeLamb=] is the last antagonist the Team and Outsiders fight in Season 3, but was OutOfFocus after the initial arc in Markovia until the season finale, and has significantly less bearing on the plot than [[ArcVillain Granny Goodness]]. |
| 661 | * RelatedInTheAdaptation: The brother of the Queen of Markovia, and therefore the uncle of Gregor, Brion, and Tara Markov. |
| 662 | * SignificantAnagram: "Bedlam" is an anagram for his real surname, "[=DeLamb=]". Nightwing, who spent hours second-guessing the identity of the culprit, is practically kicking himself for not seeing it sooner. |
| 663 | * StrawHypocrite: The stuff he does behind closed doors is the opposite of what he pretends to stand for in public. |
| 664 | * StrongAndSkilled: In comparison to his nephew [[UnskilledButStrong Brion]], Bedlam is able to fight more effectively with his meta abilities. Unfortunately for him, this is what allowed his other other nephew to see through his lies. |
| 665 | * TheSociopath: He [[BitchInSheepsClothing pretends to be]] a ReasonableAuthorityFigure who's just trying to do what's best for his country's security and his family's safety; when he is really a power-hungry tyrant who kidnaps innocent children, and shows no real remorse over backstabbing his own family members in the worst ways possible. He is also a ConsummateLiar who tries to pin his horrible crimes on his innocent nephew, and almost got away with it until the heroes exposed him. |
| 666 | * TakenForGranite: Has undergone metahuman experiments on himself to gain a rocky stone-like body. He wears a false skin to hide his transformation. |
| 667 | * TooDumbToLive: [[spoiler: Sure, Bedlam, go ahead and taunt your superpowered nephew (whose parents you murdered) with anger issues and a need for validation about how you will keep on being a threat to him, while he has you at his mercy. No way that could end badly. Even not knowing about Baazovi's MoreThanMindControl, it's still an incredibly stupid decision.]] |
| 668 | * TyrantTakesTheHelm: What his reign as regent for his nephew was shaping up to be. Gets much worse after a few months in prison. When he's busted out by the Light, he just seizes control by force and plans a mass purge of anyone loyal to Gregor. Fortunately, he lasts barely twenty four hours before Brion... ''deals'' with him. |
| 669 | * TheWorfEffect: While soundly able to defeat the recently empowered Geo-Force, Bedlam gets easily defeated by the more experienced Superboy. |
| 670 | * WouldHurtAChild: Frederick [=DeLamb=] leads the child trafficking conspiracy in Markovia, and is implied -- and later confirmed -- to be responsible for his own niece's disappearance as part of that conspiracy. He also attempts to frame his 17-year-old nephew, Brion, for the crimes he himself committed, pummels his nephew thoroughly in a fight, and then tries to order the royal guards to execute him. |
| 671 | * YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: |
| 672 | ** He shoots the metahuman assassin he hired to kill his sister and brother-in-law in the back, after he had served his purpose. |
| 673 | ** [[spoiler: The Light does this to him in "Nevermore", when Ambassador Baazovi influences Brion into killing him to turn Geo-Force against the heroes.]] |

| 783 | * FashionableAsymmetry: Fury's second outfit has a sleeveless right arm, and an armored gauntlet on her left. |
| 784 | * LighterAndSofter: In ''52'', Trajectory was reliant on drugs to function at normal speeds, and Everyman was an AxCrazy cannibal. No indications of either here. |

| 1043 | * EvilOldFolks: Morrow is 100 years old, and even though he can no longer act on his own, he continues his efforts against the heroes. |
| 1044 | * ForScience: Morrow's primary motive in creating more powerful androids seems to be for the sake of advancing robotics technology. |
| 1045 | * GracefulLoser: In "Welcome to Happy Harbor", he doesn't get angry over the destruction of Mister Twister, taking solace in the knowledge that his tracking program worked well enough to at least narrow down Red Tornado's location. |
| 1046 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: No more "Pinocchios!". ItMakesSenseInContext. |
| 1047 | ** All his Red androids [[GoneHorriblyRight went horribly right]]. The first three, designed to infiltrate the Justice Society of America, became genuine heroes and turned against him, and Red Volcano, meant to have no humanity, decided that Morrow was obsolete and turned against him. |
| 1048 | * TheManBehindTheMan: Or the man behind the man behind the robot behind the robot. No, really. |
| 1049 | ** According to "Humanity", the T.O. Morrow we met onscreen is actually an android copy created by the original human T.O. Morrow. So, this T.O. Morrow is actually The robot behind the man behind the robot behind the robot. Could this get any more convoluted? Actually yes. If the original human T.O. Morrow is also involved in these plots, then that guy is The man behind the robot behind the man behind the robot behind the robot. |
| 1050 | *** And then the last robot subverts all this and kills the robot before him, thinking he is the man, and hijacks the plan to KillAllHumans for himself. And the actual ManBehindTheMan is just a bedridden old pensioner who is in not fit state to mastermind anything. |
| 1051 | * RobotMaster: He built the Red androids and a robot double of himself |
| 1052 | * RoboticReveal: The T.O. Morrow we met onscreen is actually an android. The real and human T.O. Morrow appears in the end of "Humanity" as an old bedridden man. |

| 1062 | ---- |
| 1063 | * AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Gets no respect in Belle Reve. |
| 1064 | * CoolShades: Triangular green glasses with a purple frame. |
| 1065 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: The only criminal in Belle Reve who actually escaped. |
| 1066 | * EvilCounterpart: In a way, he's one to Robin I/Nightwing. They're both clever planners, although while this isolates Riddler and makes him a minion, it's what makes Dick a leader. There's also the way they both play around with language, though Dick outgrows his backformations as he grows up, with a few catching on in his friend group as in-jokes, while The Riddler childishly keeps using riddles to annoy people. Dick is also the one who solves the riddle in "Usual Suspects," and is the [[ButThouMust set leader of Alpha Squad]] during Riddler's turn as a level boss in ''Legacy.'' |
| 1067 | * InsufferableGenius: The other cons in Belle Reve find Nigma extremely annoying. |
| 1068 | * SissyVillain: His lisp gives off this impression. |
| 1069 | * SmugSnake: Boasts of his position as the Light's strategist, but he goes down easily to Robin. |
| 1070 | * SpellMyNameWithAThe: Known as "'''The''' Riddler". |
| 1071 | * SpeechImpediment: Has a slight lisp. |
| 1072 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: Despite getting no respect whatsoever from his fellow convicts, the Riddler was the only one to actually escape in Icicle Sr.'s prison break scheme. |
