| 33 | !!The Crew of the Interceptor |
| 34 | |
| 35 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 36 | * BadassCrew: This crew has achieved some impressive creds and is the one out in Frontier Space dealing with threats far from back up. |
| 37 | * ColorCodedCharacters: Razer's red and black attire deliberately stands in contrast with the rest of the green-themed team, particularly Aya, whose main colors are neon green and white. |
| 38 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: |
| 39 | ** '''Sanguine''': Hal; incredibly social and good-natured, while also rather impulsive. |
| 40 | ** '''Choleric''': Kilowog; the most fierce in battle and quick to anger, but with a compassionate heart. |
| 41 | ** '''Melancholic''': Razer; intelligent, brooding, and by far the least social of the group. |
| 42 | ** '''Phlegmatic''': Aya; gentle and eager to learn while being capable in her own right. |
| 43 | * RagtagBunchOfMisfits: A human, a pig-like alien, an A.I. nav computer, and a reformed enemy. |

| 47 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Hal_Jordan_6912.jpg]] |
| 48 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JoshKeaton [[labelnote:Foreign [=VAs=]]]Creator/PierreTessier (FR), Creator/ArturoMercadoJr (LA)[[/labelnote]] |
| 49 | |
| 50 | Green Lantern of Sector 2814, homeworld Earth. Hal Jordan is constantly at odds with the Guardians due his tendency to [[ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight do what's right]], regardless of the political consequences. This attitude drives him to steal the ''Interceptor'' and hunt down the Lantern killers threatening frontier space. |
| 51 | ---- |
| 52 | * AcePilot: His day job at Ferris Enterprises was testing planes and he was very good at it. |
| 53 | * BashBrothers: If he and Guy can stop one-upping each other for ten seconds, they easily fall into this. |
| 54 | * BatterUp: Seems to be his preferred construct for melee combat. [[FridgeBrilliance He did say he used to play baseball.]] |
| 55 | * BattleCouple: With Carol in "Love is a Battlefield"; an apt title. |
| 56 | * BerserkButton: Do ''not'' try to flirt with Carol Ferris. Guy Gardner found this out the hard way via Hal punching them in the face. Also don't try to ''hurt'' her either, as [[spoiler:''Atrocitus'']] found out via a similar method. |
| 57 | * BroughtDownToBadass: Anytime he's unable to use his power ring, he's still a capable combatant. As he puts it, "I was kicking butt long before I ever got this ring." |
| 58 | * TheCaptain: Of the Interceptor, though he was only granted it "under protest" from Appa. |
| 59 | * CaptainSmoothAndSergeantRough: The Captain Smooth to Kilowog's Sergeant Rough. |
| 60 | * ChickMagnet: Besides Carol Ferris, he's drawn the attention of Iolande, the Star Sapphire queen's niece, and ''flirted'' with Aya, an artificial intelligence, to get her to cooperate. |
| 61 | * ChronicHeroSyndrome: It's consistently noted that Hal will always put others' well-being ahead of his own. [[spoiler:In "Steam Lantern", he'd rather take a chance at pulling an entire planet through a crack between universes than send himself back for sure while leaving it to die of cold.]] |
| 62 | * ClarkKenting: |
| 63 | ** Mercilessly mocked by Kilowog and Guy Gardner. Both of them say it doesn't make any sense for him to hide his identity on the other side of the galaxy. |
| 64 | ** Lampshaded when Carol wonders how it ever fooled her after finding out his identity. |
| 65 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Brown eyes and hair. |
| 66 | * DeadpanSnarker: Whether it's a Red Lantern invasion or falling into a black hole, Hal always has a wisecrack ready. |
| 67 | * {{Determinator}}: Naturally, being a Willpower-based Green Lantern, he never gives up. |
| 68 | * EvilCostumeSwitch: Gets a spiffy Orange Lantern uniform when he's corrupted by the Orange Lantern Battery. |
| 69 | * ExpressiveMask: He has been maskless in two scenes over two seasons and still displays emotion. It could be justified by the fact that it's an energy construct and reacts to his thoughts. |
| 70 | * GlowingEyesOfDoom: When amplified by a Blue Lantern ring, his eyes glow green. |
| 71 | * GoodIsNotDumb: He can outsmart criminals like Byth Rok with ease. |
| 72 | * GoodIsNotSoft: Hal is a genuinely nice person, but don't think that means he'll go easy on bad guys. |
| 73 | * GuileHero: in "Flight Club", he OutGambitted Byth Rok not only once but ''twice''. |
| 74 | * TheHero: Main good guy and the one advocating saving others, including people like Razer. |
| 75 | * HeroicSecondWind: Happens during his second and third battles with Atrocitus. After being pummelled into the ground, he gets his second wind and beats Atrocitus unconscious. Justified, as his ring literally runs on HeroicSpirit. |
| 76 | * IrislessEyeMaskOfMystery: When he activates the power of the ring, it creates his mask. |
| 77 | * ItsAllMyFault: Consider's [[spoiler:Aya's rampage]] to be his fault since he was the one who stole the ship back in the pilot and rescued [[spoiler:her]] from the Science Director. |
| 78 | * TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: He admires Sinestro and models his own MO after him. |
| 79 | * LadyAndKnight: The White Knight (heroic green lantern) to Iolande's Bright Lady (benevolent queen), though Carol is his true love. |
| 80 | * LanternJawOfJustice: Cue {{pun}}s, but seriously, it's there and heroic. |
| 81 | * LaserGuidedAmnesia: He uses the Star Sapphires' portal to go back to Earth and stop Atrocitus' invasion of Oa, but this results in him forgetting everything except for his love for Carol. Luckily, Carol quickly notices that something's up and helps him regain his memories. |
| 82 | * TheLeader: He leads by personality since he isn't much for masterminding or hierarchy. |
| 83 | * LovableJock: Implied. Hal tends to make baseball constructs and joins Guy Gardner in using football constructs to destroy a Manhunter. |
| 84 | * NoOneGetsLeftBehind: Hal will ''never'' leave someone in danger if he can do anything about it. |
| 85 | * PapaWolf: Addresses and looks out for Aya as if she were his own daughter. He was, in fact, the one who named her. |
| 86 | * ParentalHypocrisy: Has a tendency to be very reckless on missions and disobeys orders [[ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight when he feels the need to]], but is quick to complain when [[SpaceshipGirl Aya]] ignores orders to do a mission he feels is too dangerous and risky for her. Kilowog lampshades the hypocrisy of it. |
| 87 | * PraetorianGuard: Promoted to Honor Guard following the Red Lantern incident. |
| 88 | * ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated: Since Hal was gone for months in the first season, people thought he was dead. In the premiere of season 2, he comes home to find that he had been replaced at his job. |
| 89 | * RespectedByTheRespected: Hinted to be the case with him and Guy. Guy seems to have the respect and admiration of every person, Green Lantern, '''and''' Guardian in the show yet Guy surprisingly shows Hal a great amount of respect and trust in him despite only knowing him for less than a day. |
| 90 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: The main problem the Guardians have with him; despite being competent and meaning well, Hal has no problem stealing a prototype ship from them, disobeying direct orders to not go in a precise place or punching a viceroy in the face. [[note]] Technically, he punched the viceroy in the ''stomach'', then headbutted him in the face.[[/note]] |
| 91 | * SecretIdentity: He is the only Green Lantern so far to maintain one. He gets mocked for it by the other Green Lanterns. Even Guy Gardner makes no secret of his identity. |
| 92 | * TalkingTheMonsterToDeath: He tried this on Atrocitus but it didn't work. His minions, on the other hand, were willing to talk after he punched out Atrocitus. [[spoiler:He managed to get through to Aya eventually, but she had to nearly kill Razer first]]. |
| 93 | * TeamDad: He provides a mix of guidance and discipline to Razer and was about to give Aya TheTalk. |
| 94 | * TokenHuman: The only human we see besides Carol for about half the first season and the only one that's ever on the ship. |
| 95 | * VitriolicBestBuds: While he often gets into conflict with Kilowog, they still have a deep respect for each other. |
| 96 | * WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: His attempt to take the Orange Lantern Battery resulted in the power of avarice corrupting him, complete with RedEyesTakeWarning. [[note]] ''Orange'' eyes anyway...[[/note]] |

| 99 | [[folder:Kilowog]] |
| 100 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Kilowog_5558.jpg]] |
| 101 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson [[labelnote:Foreign [=VAs=]]]Creator/MarcAlfos (FR, 1st voice), Creator/PaulBorne (FR, 2nd voice), Creator/OctavioRojas (LA)[[/labelnote]] |
| 102 | |
| 103 | Green Lantern of Sector 674, the last survivor of Bolovax Vik. He serves as [[DrillSergeantNasty drill sergeant]] for the Corps. Kilowog often plays the voice of reason to Hal's impulsive actions. Like Hal, however, he has a strong sense of justice and joins him in his quest to find the Lantern killers. |
| 104 | ---- |
| 105 | * ActionDad: Heavily implied to have been this in "Fear Itself". In the first nightmare he has, we see him interacting with two children who call him "daddy". |
| 106 | * TheBigGuy: The biggest on the crew and wields light construct hammers. |
| 107 | * BoisterousBruiser: More stoic than most examples but still gets into fighting with a grin. |
| 108 | * BruiserWithASoftCenter: A rough and gruff guy who takes the ToughLove approach with his recruits and others. |
| 109 | * BrooklynRage: He has something of a Brooklyn accent and is a drill sergeant. |
| 110 | * ByTheBookCop: He likes to stick to the regulations, believing that they exist for a reason, but he's not above disobeying orders if he feels it's necessary. |
| 111 | * CompositeCharacter: "Heir Apparent" has him take Soranik Natu's place as a Green Lantern FakingTheDead to expose Ragnar as the murderer of his sector's Green Lantern. |
| 112 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: At some point during his GL career, Bolovax Vik was destroyed, leading to the eradication of his entire species, his wife and children included. |
| 113 | * DatingCatwoman: Falls in love with an alien named Galia, who becomes a Star Sapphire the very episode after her introduction. She may have gotten better after their collective HeelFaceTurn, but she hasn't been revisited since. |
| 114 | * DeadpanSnarker: Not to the extent of Hal, but he does have his fair share of moments when he's snarky. |
| 115 | * DrillSergeantNasty: Shown in the second half of the season. He tells Hal that his students are like his children, then immediately breaks into a string of insults at one offscreen for doing something wrong. |
| 116 | %%* TheComicallySerious: When things get humorous (what happens?) |
| 117 | * {{Foil}}: Tends to be this to Hal because he is a ByTheBookCop and Hal is a CowboyCop. |
| 118 | * FourFingeredHands: Because he's a pig man he doesn't have human hands. |
| 119 | * TheGadfly: When Hal tries to recruit him again in the second half of the season, he refuses. Upon Hal's suggestion that he beat Kilowog's best student to get his help, Kilowog has him fight Ch'p, the alien squirrel. Hal is soundly defeated, but Kilowog goes with him anyway; he just wanted to see Hal fight the squirrel. |
| 120 | * GentleGiant: When in a good mood, he's a big and affable guy. |
| 121 | * GlowingEyesOfDoom: When amplified by a Blue Lantern ring, his eyes glow green. |
| 122 | * HeartbrokenBadass: Mentioning the destruction of Kilowog's home planet tends to be a sore spot for him. When Hal hears of it during the premiere, Kilowog irritably changes the subject. |
| 123 | * JabbaTableManners: He eats a bowl of worms by smashing his face into it and chowing down. |
| 124 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He can sometimes be grimly harsh, and is very aggressive. However, he means well. |
| 125 | * LastOfHisKind: His planet was destroyed. He was the only survivor. |
| 126 | %%* MightyGlacier: He's the biggest and strongest of the crew. |
| 127 | * MoreDakka: When it isn't one-on-one, Kilowog goes for the big guns; [[GatlingGood a lot of them]]. |
| 128 | * PigMan: Just like his comic self, he's an alien who looks somewhat like a pig. |
| 129 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Downplayed. Kilowog's a bit gruff, but he's one of the good guys. Unless you're a bad guy and on the wrong end of his hammer. ''Then'' you can take all the warning you want. |
| 130 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: He's initially ''very'' unhappy about working with ex-Red Lantern Razer, leading the two to come to blows in the fourth episode. They gradually cool into a less combative working relationship, and by the end of the series, they have no qualms about calling each other friends. |
| 131 | * UnderwearOfPower: Kilowog's Green Lantern uniform includes green briefs over his black skin-tight suit. |
| 132 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Hal. The two of them bicker and tease each other a lot, but they'll gladly die for each other if need be. |
| 133 | * TheWorfEffect: Zigzagging with this one; he has a fair body count but when the writers need to stress that something is ''really'' tough they use him. There's an In-universe example during "Fight Club" when Byth has him fight and lose to make his captors cocky and willing to up the stakes of a bet. Once they do so, he tells Hal to AttackItsWeakPoint. |
| 134 | [[/folder]] |
| 135 | |
| 136 | [[folder:Aya]] |
| 137 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Aya-Icon_4885.jpg]] |
| 138 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/GreyDeLisle [[labelnote:Foreign [=VAs=]]]Céline Melloul (FR), Lourdes Arruti (LA)[[/labelnote]] |
| 139 | |
| 140 | The ''Interceptor's'' Nav-Com AI. She serves as the NaiveNewcomer to Hal's group, learning what it means to be a Green Lantern from their example. |
| 141 | ---- |
| 142 | * ActionGirl: She shows that she is quite capable in a fight in the episode "In Love and War". |
| 143 | * AIIsACrapshoot: |
| 144 | ** The Guardians hold this opinion of her after "Homecoming", but Aya is never presented as anything other than fundamentally good (if naive). [[spoiler:Until "Cold Fury", that is, where she shuts down her emotions to get over the pain of Razer rejecting her and betrays the crew after killing the Anti-Monitor.]] |
| 145 | ** It turns out she was this when she was first created, too. [[spoiler:The Science Director gave her life by infusing her with a piece of Ion, the embodiment of willpower. With that, however, came curiosity and free will, and the Science Director quickly discovered that Aya would not obey her and would violently defend her right to exist, so she ended up erasing her memories and firewalling her emotions before installing her on the ''Interceptor'' as its navigational computer.]] |
| 146 | * ArmCannon: Her palms work like Green Lantern rings. |
| 147 | * BadassAdorable: She's a state-of-the-art, combat-capable AI and her behavior is comparable to an inquisitive little girl asking her father, "what's that thing called". |
| 148 | * BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:She appears in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueAction'' without any memories.]] |
| 149 | * BlackEyesOfEvil: [[spoiler:Upon stealing the Anti-Monitor's powers and taking its place as the villain but she still has pupils.]] |
| 150 | * BodyHorror: [[spoiler:She fuses with a damaged Manhunter in "Cold Fury". It's really disturbing. Aya herself realizes this and transfers herself into a spare body when Razer calls attention to it.]] |
| 151 | * BodySurf: [[spoiler:Survived her brush with Death at the hands of the Anti-Monitor by downloading into a disabled Manhunter.]] |
| 152 | * BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[PlayfulHacker Drusa]] hacks Aya over to the Red Lantern's side in "Invasion". Razer snaps her out of it. |
| 153 | * BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:In "Cold Fury". Razer rejects her, which causes her such pain that she shuts down her emotions and ultimately declares her disgust and refusal to have anything to do with organic beings.]] |
| 154 | * CanonImmigrant: |
| 155 | ** Aya debuted in the comic before the series aired. |
| 156 | ** She's since immigrated to the ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' continuation comics, where she is a Green Lantern with her own sector. |
| 157 | * TheComicallySerious: Doesn't have a grasp of humor so she can be funny while completely serious. |
| 158 | * CoolStarship: She's the ''Interceptor'''s AI so her true form is the ship itself. |
| 159 | * CrazyPrepared: She made multiple backup copies of her robotic form (or rather, the associated parts) after losing several limbs to Atrocitus. |
| 160 | * CreepyBlueEyes: [[spoiler:As the Queen of the Manhunters, the eyes are more robotic and uncanny.]] |
| 161 | * DarkActionGirl: [[spoiler:After she shuts off her emotions and takes over the Anti-Monitor's role as the villain.]] |
| 162 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:She ''killed'' the Anti-Monitor [[CurbStompBattle with one attack.]]]] |
| 163 | * DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler:Dies in Razer's arms after [[HeroicSacrifice taking a hit from the Anti-Monitor for him]]. Thankfully, she found a way to survive. Then it happens AGAIN in the series finale after she comes back from her FaceHeelTurn and [[HeroicSacrifice unleashes a virus that deletes her program]]. A ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueAction'' episode reveals that she survived, albeit without any memories.]] |
| 164 | * EasilyDetachableRobotParts: Aya's "body" is just a green energy construct designed to give her human form. Her armor is her physical self, and the individual pieces are all capable of acting independently. It Becomes significant when Aya changes parts in front of Razer, rather viscerally reminding him at the worst possible moment that she's a machine. |
| 165 | * EmotionlessGirl: |
| 166 | ** Downplayed. Her voice is consistently deadpan, even in dangerous situations, but she shows emotion in subtle ways. She displays stealth compassion for Razer and seems to be sensitive to Hal's flirting in the pilot. She doesn't show up on Manhunter emotion scanners, unless Razer, her LoveInterest, is around. |
| 167 | ** [[spoiler:In "Cold Fury", she shuts off her emotions to suppress her pain after Razer said he didn't love her. Cue her killing the Anti-Monitor and taking over as the new villain.]] |
| 168 | * EvilCostumeSwitch: [[spoiler:Goes from green-skinned, white-armored, and blue-eyed to icy blue-skinned, black-armored, and black-eyed in "Cold Fury".]] |
| 169 | * FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:After shutting off her emotions to defeat the Anti-Monitor, she takes over his body, accepts the Manhunters as her 'subjects', and rejects all organics as 'flawed'.]] |
| 170 | * FaceStealer: One based on Razer's dead wife because she used it to free him from a LotusEaterMachine. |
| 171 | * FullyAbsorbedFinale: She appears on an episode of ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueAction'' for a stint as Space Cabbie's GPS, meaning that [[spoiler:she survived the events of this show's series finale]]. |
| 172 | * GlowingEyesOfDoom: Her eyes go completely green when she powers up her arm cannons in "In Love and War". [[spoiler:In "Cold Fury", they turn bright white when she absorbs the ''Interceptor's'' entire power supply.]] |
| 173 | * GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: [[spoiler:Declares herself queen of the Manhunters after her FaceHeelTurn.]] |
| 174 | * TheHeart: Despite being an AI, she serves as the team's moral compass most of the time. |
| 175 | * HeartDrive: Her entire program exists in a small cylinder-shaped data core, making it easy for Hal to have her swapped out of her soon-to-be-dissected body for her incompetent replacement in "Reboot". |
| 176 | * HeroicSacrifice: |
| 177 | ** [[spoiler:Shoves Razer out of the path of the Anti-Monitor's beam in "Loss", which fatally damages her, though she recovers from that.]] |
| 178 | ** [[spoiler:She makes another in the next episode, shutting off her emotions to enable her to drain the ''Interceptor's'' energy and kill the Anti-Monitor. This ends badly, however, because she had come to equate love with pain right before doing that, leading her to merge with the Anti-Monitor and turn on the heroes.]] |
| 179 | ** [[spoiler:''Another'' in the series finale, when she deletes her program to stop the Manhunters.]] |
| 180 | * HumanityEnsues: At the end of "Into the Abyss" Aya constructs herself a humanoid body, if only so that she can be a "real" Green Lantern. |
| 181 | * IJustWantToBeSpecial: Wants to be counted as a Green Lantern in her own right. [[spoiler:Little does she know this is ''exactly'' what she was commissioned for. The Science Director just wasn't happy with the results.]] |
| 182 | * InformedAttribute: [[spoiler:Though Aya claims to have shut off her emotions at the end of "Cold Fury", she certainly doesn't ''[[MachineMonotone sound]]'' emotionless. In fact, she comes off as angry. It's a clue to her origins: Aya's emotions are not a product of advanced circuitry, but stem from the small bit of Ion inside her. As such, she cannot really shut off her emotions.]] It's hinted at by the fact that she attacks everyone on sight, save Razer. |
| 183 | * InnocentBlueEyes: Due to her young age and lack of experience, the eyes of her robotic body express innocent. |
| 184 | * LackOfEmpathy: [[spoiler:Once she shuts off her emotions, she coldly sacrifices an entire Red Lantern warship just to give herself an opening to attack the Anti-Monitor. The finale, however, reveals that she hasn't been willing to kill precisely because she can't fully suppress her empathy.]] |
| 185 | * LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:Aya was originally created by the Science Director, but when she proved too willful to control, the Science Director erased her memories and installed her on the ''Interceptor''. Aya had also discovered evidence of the Science Director's duplicity, which was another motivation.]] |
| 186 | * LoveMakesYouEvil: [[spoiler:It does when you shut off your emotions moments after equating love with ''pain''.]] |
| 187 | * LoveRedeems: [[spoiler:Fatally wounding Razer ([[KickTheMoralityPet and immediately regretting it]]) is what brings her back from the dark side.]] |
| 188 | * MeaningfulName: "Aya" sounds like a corruption of "A.I", making it a slightly tongue in cheek reference to what she is. [[spoiler:It also sounds suspiciously close to "Ion", the embodiment of Willpower. A fragment of said being was used in Aya's creation making her something close to either a child or an avatar of Ion.]] |
| 189 | * MoralityChain: To Razer; she convinces him not to take revenge on Atrocitus for the sake of escaping Shard. [[spoiler:Razer could also be considered one to her post-FaceHeelTurn. She came within seconds of destroying Zamaron, but Razer's mere presence was enough to make her back down and quickly think up an alternative which wouldn't involve having to personally murder him. When she fatally wounds him on impulse in the finale, it immediately puts her back on the side of good.]] |
| 190 | * MsFanservice: For a navigational computer, she designs herself an oddly hot humanoid form. She based it on Razer's wife, which might suggest that Ilana herself [[ImpossibleHourglassFigure had quite the curves]] beneath those prudish garments. [[spoiler:Her evil coloring seems to accentuate the fact, but this may simply be a side effect of the greater contrast between the blue skin and black armor compared to the lighter white and green palette she had before.]] |
| 191 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:When she near-fatally wounds Razer, she immediately regrets it.]] |
| 192 | * NiceGirl: Aya is always calm, accomodating, and wants to become a genuine Green Lantern so she can be a hero. [[spoiler:Which makes her FaceHeelTurn doubly tragic.]] |
| 193 | * NotSoStoic: She's stoic most of the time, but she has her moments. [[spoiler:She sheds a SingleTear after she'd been brainwashed by Drusa in "Homecoming", for example, and her supposedly-emotionless new self in "Cold Fury" sounds angrier than anything she's ever displayed.]] |
| 194 | * OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:She jumps on the "all life must die" bandwagon in "Love is a Battlefield" after her time on Zamaron convinces her that emotion makes beings act irrational. Unlike the Anti-Monitor, she plans to wipe it out all at once instead of just eating planets one at a time. In "Larfleeze", she started, as Kilowog and Razer see the stars above Okaara going dark at an alarming pace. Subverted later, when they discover she hasn't been destroying inhabited worlds.]] |
| 195 | * PowerCopying: [[spoiler:She's able to copy the Star Sapphire teleportation power and improve it so she can teleport whatever she chooses.]] |
| 196 | * RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:After turning good again, she has to release a virus to destroy the Manhunters which she upgraded with her own programming, destroying herself in the process. Razer isn't convinced she's really dead and goes looking for her. It turns out she did survive, as she appeared in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueAction'' without any memories.]] |
| 197 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Whether this is used or not is ambiguous. Aya used the form of Razer's wife when creating a body, but Razer didn't notice the resemblance until it was pointed out by somebody else. At the same time, Aya was the only female he was attracted to, period, so he may have recognized it on a subconscious level. |
| 198 | * RideTheLightning: She can transfer her consciousness in the form of a green bolt of energy. |
| 199 | * RidiculouslyHumanRobots: Justified; she wants to be a Green Lantern and her immediate role models are all humanoid. |
| 200 | * RobotGirl: She's technically the ship but created herself a humanoid body. |
| 201 | * SapientShip: Her true form is the ''Interceptor'' itself. |
| 202 | * SecondLawMyAss: Aya obeys orders most of the time, but she isn't compelled to and has disobeyed orders on a few occasions, even ignoring the Guardians at one point. Amusingly, Hal doesn't approve but this is behavior she learned from him. [[spoiler:As the Science Director discovered when she created Aya, infusing an AI with living willpower is a surefire recipe for something that will disobey you if it feels like it.]] |
| 203 | * SecondLove: She is one for Razer. |
| 204 | * TheSmartGirl: She's the AI of a cutting-edge starship so, yes, she's very smart. |
| 205 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the only female member of the crew. |
| 206 | * SpaceshipGirl: Kilowog tries to argue against Aya's attempt to classify herself as a Green Lantern, reasoning that she needs a physical body. Aya responds by making one. |
| 207 | * TheStarsAreGoingOut: [[spoiler:In "Larfleeze", Razer and Kilowog look to the skies and see numerous stars going dark. Kilowog tries to suggest that it's unrelated, but they both know that's just wishful thinking.]] |
| 208 | * TinmanTypist: She engages in this trope several times. To make it even weirder, after the first example, she immediately explicitly states that she has total mental control over the ship. |
| 209 | * TookALevelInBadass: She took her rather brutal loss to Atrocitus to heart. After that, she modified her palms into Green Lantern rings and kicks a fair amount of ass. [[spoiler:Then comes "Cold Fury", where she takes on every bit of power from the ''Interceptor's'' power battery and ''kills the Anti-Monitor''. Then she took ''his'' power, then kept absorbing star system after star system.]] |
| 210 | * TouchedByVorlons: [[spoiler:The Science Director reveals that Aya was given life by a piece of Ion.]] |
| 211 | * WalkingSpoiler: Becomes hard to talk about in the second half of the series for reasons that obviously can't be written here without putting them in spoiler tags. |
| 212 | * WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: A variation; though Aya can comprehend Razer's past loss, she hadn't come to a full understanding of it at that point. In "Loss", [[spoiler:while dying]], she says she's come to understand the meaning of regret, [[spoiler:specifically that she regrets the lost opportunity between them]]. She still has a bit of trouble with love, [[spoiler:since she isn't able to precisely quantify Razer's love for her in the next episode]]. |
| 213 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: [[spoiler:After Razer tries to deny her love, she ends up shutting off her emotions, viewing the pain as an inhibition to stopping the Anti-Monitor. She absorbs the ''Interceptor's'' entire power supply, using it to kill the Anti-Monitor... but ends up plugged into his systems and decides she doesn't want anything to do with organics anymore, taking the Manhunters and fleeing. She heads to Zamaron to try and get some perspective on love, but only comes away convinced that it leads to pain and decides to wipe out all organic life.]] |
| 214 | * YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:In "Loss", Razer admits his love for her just before she "dies". When she comes back alive, however, he backpedals and declares she's just a machine. This leads to WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds.]] |

| 220 | |
| 221 | A Red Lantern who turns on Atrocitus after being pressured into destroying an inhabited world. Razer's wife Ilana died in the wars on his home planet, [[AllThereInTheManual Volkreg]], and her loss inspired the rage which drew the ring to him. |
| 222 | ---- |
| 223 | * AffectionateNickname: While it began as MaliciousMisnaming, Kilowog likes to call him "Red". |
| 224 | * AntiHero: After joining the Green Lanterns, he's firmly against the Red Lanterns, but remains pessmimistic, cynical, and difficult to deal with. Notably, even as a good guy, Razer can still use a Red Lantern ring, powered by the user's rage and hatred. CharacterDevelopment sees him soften over the course of the series, to the point that [[spoiler:the ending implies that he'll become a Blue Lantern and a straight-up hero.]] |
| 225 | * AntiVillain: Before his HeelFaceTurn, he was driven by the death of his wife, Ilana. He was also reluctant to kill in cold blood, his hunter-killer drones don't kill anyone, and he couldn't look at the detonator he presses to blow up a planet. He also blamed himself for pressing the button, to the point of regretting his own existance. |
| 226 | * TheAtoner: He expresses remorse over the things he has done, tends to use non-lethal force if possible, and would like nothing more than to stop relying on his anger to fight. |
| 227 | * BadPowersGoodPeople: Despite forsaking Atrocitus and his crusade, Razer can still use the rage and hate-fuelled powers of a Red Lantern ring. It causes him no end of angst, as he abhors being so hateful, regrets ever having served Atrocitus, and finds the oath he needs to recite to recharge his ring to be vile. [[spoiler:The series finale implies that he'll get a chance to be free of this; his faith in Aya's survival is powerful enough to attract a Blue Lantern ring.]] |
| 228 | * BadassArmfold: His standard pose due to stoic annoyance is crossed arms over his chest. |
| 229 | * BadassBoast: "I am not a friend. I am rage, I am vengeance, I am death." |
| 230 | * BadassBookworm: He was responsible for setting traps during [[EvilGenius his time with the Red Lanterns]], and commanded the drone that damaged and tagged Aya with a tracer in the pilot (which he may have also designed). He is shown to have extended knowledge of space ships and their different sections and parts with enough knowledge to identify a ship's main engine power line. In his flashbacks, his wife implies he's well-educated, as she claims their society needs teachers, doctors, and builders more than soldiers. |
| 231 | ** He also causes a fake explosion in "Reckoning" as a diversion. ''Aya'' had trouble fully analyzing his program. |
| 232 | ** Hal recognizes this in "Invasion". When they find it necessary to destroy an ancient device, Razer is the person he turns to. True to form, Razer hotwires it to explode despite being unfamiliar with the technology. |
| 233 | * BadassCreed: Defied. He thinks the Red Lantern oath is "disgusting and vile." He'd much rather use the one Aya wrote for him. If only it worked. |
| 234 | * BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: From Red Lantern in the pilot to [[spoiler:potential Blue Lantern]] in the finale. [[spoiler:Storyboards for the unmade second season indicated that Razer would become a Blue Lantern.]] |
| 235 | * BerserkButton: Hurting Aya will instantly invoke his rage. |
| 236 | ** Another time was when Atrocitus admitted he killed Ilana. "Pissed off" doesn't even begin to describe his rage. |
| 237 | * BewareTheQuietOnes: When not using his ring, Razer is the [[TheStoic quietest]] and most controlled member of the team besides Aya. |
| 238 | * BizarreAlienBiology: He can go without food for months at a time, which implies that he's [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ectotherm ectothermic]]--in other words, ''[[{{Irony}} cold-blooded]]''. |
| 239 | * BreathWeapon: In "Reckoning". The finest display of any Red Lantern. |
| 240 | * ByronicHero: Razer is very intelligent and talented, but brooding, self-loathing, snarky, and has suffered terrible loss that makes opening up or becoming hopeful again an uphill battle. |
| 241 | * CannotSpitItOut: Finds it very difficult to admit his feelings for Aya, to himself or anyone else. [[spoiler:Even when he finally does during "Loss", he backpedals in the next episode.]] |
| 242 | * CanonImmigrant: Razer was created for the show, but was introduced early on in ''ComicBook/GreenLantern2023'', That said it took some time for the jump from show to the main DC universe to happen, as before that, a counterpart was introduced in the revival of ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010'' and his [[GenderFlip Earth-11]] counterpart was introduced in ''The Multiversity: Teen Justice''. |
| 243 | * CombatPragmatist: Instead of fighting Atrocitus head-on (at first), he attempted to backstab him. Unfortunately, Atrocitus was a step ahead of him. |
| 244 | * CosmicPlaything: Whenever the universe wants to ruin someone's life, he's the bulls-eye. |
| 245 | * CrazyPrepared: Gotta be the only reason he carries around an array of knives and shuriken on his person despite wearing one of the powerful weapons in the universe on his finger. |
| 246 | * CrusadingWidower: Fights on behalf of his dead wife. |
| 247 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Lost his wife and pushed a button that would destroy a planet, which he blames himself for and spent the whole first season dwelling on until he got help with letting it go. |
| 248 | * DeadpanSnarker: Shows his disdain for his teammates through sarcasm: |
| 249 | -->'''Razer:''' ''[SarcasticClapping]'' Congratulations. After weeks of stalking Shard, you've unlocked the secret of when they dump their ''garbage.'' Can total victory be far behind? |
| 250 | ** He's so good at this he can [[SilentSnarker snark without even speaking.]] In "Babel", when the crew's rings run out of energy before they're forced to fight a giant. Among the trophies it has collected is a Manhunter head, which Hal and Kilowog use to recharge their rings before tossing it to Razer, who holds up his ''red'' ring with a deadpan expression. |
| 251 | * DeathSeeker: He was hoping to die in the explosion of a planet, attempts to goad Hal into killing him afterwards, and doesn't struggle when stripped of his ring while Kilowog throws him around. [[spoiler:His assassination attempt on Atrocitus may or may not have been planned to end in his execution, but Razer certainly wasn't struggling.]] He mentions not caring if he died against the Anti-Monitor in "Cold Fury", [[spoiler:since Aya's dead]]. |
| 252 | * {{Determinator}}: In the end, he goes to look for Aya, no matter how long it takes. |
| 253 | * FacialMarkings: In the comics based on the show, they were stated to be clan tattoos. |
| 254 | * FangsAreEvil: His fangs aren't as noticeable as Zox's, and, unlike him, he switches sides eventually. |
| 255 | * FullyAbsorbedFinale: While it is a different universe over on ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'', it does give an idea of what became of Razer after he received his blue ring. |
| 256 | * GlowingEyesOfDoom: When pushed far enough, Razer's rage causes his eyes to turn black with burning red irises, a sign that his powers are feeding off even more rage than usual. [[spoiler:In such a state, he's powerful enough to overcome the negation effect Blue Lanterns normally have on Red Lantern rings.]] |
| 257 | * GoodCostumeSwitch: While the audience never sees it, it's heavily implied that Razer becomes [[spoiler:a Blue Lantern at the end of the series.]] |
| 258 | * {{Guyliner}}: His eyes are outlined heavily with black. As Razer lived in a desert until adulthood, this may be a biological feature to reduce glare from the sun. |
| 259 | * HeartbrokenBadass: The death of his wife drove him to Red Lantern levels of grief and rage. He finally seems to have moved forward in "Loss", [[spoiler:only for things to go so much more wrong]]. |
| 260 | * HeelFaceTurn: He becomes part of Hal's team after saving them. |
| 261 | * HeroicBSOD: Goes near catatonic after [[spoiler:Aya dies]], only able to hold what's left of [[spoiler:her]] while the Anti-Monitor bears down on him. |
| 262 | * HiddenHeartOfGold: His default setting is a gruff mask over his NiceGuy nature which seems to be caused by the death of his wife. |
| 263 | * HiddenWeapons: When attempting to bribe a guard in "Babel", all he has in his pockets are a ''lot'' of knives. |
| 264 | * HopeSpringsEternal: After Aya apparently [[spoiler:dies in the finale, he remains steadfast in his belief that she must still exist in some form; a belief strong enough to draw a Blue Lantern ring to him.]] |
| 265 | * IcyBlueEyes: When de-powered or calm, Razer's eyes are a very pale blue and he himself is ruthlessly focused. |
| 266 | * IgnoreTheFanservice: Proves to be completely immune to the charms of the Star Sapphires due to the death of his wife. |
| 267 | * ItsAllMyFault: [[spoiler:He blames himself for Aya's FaceHeelTurn and for all the harm she has or will cause in that state.]] |
| 268 | * IWillFindYou: At the end of the series, he [[spoiler:leaves on a quest to find Aya]]. |
| 269 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He rarely gets along with Hal and Kilowog (''especially'' Kilowog), pessimistic, snarks constantly and lacks empathy with the group, but his intentions are good. This improves in the following arc. In the second season, he shows a warmer side to the green lanterns, especially Aya who he falls in love with. |
| 270 | * LackOfEmpathy: In the first season, [[DownplayedTrope to a degree]]; he's goal-oriented and tends to be insensitive to his teammates, although he clearly has concern for innocent people. This changes after he spends time with Saint Walker, although he's still does have a cold and distant demeanor most of the time. |
| 271 | * TheLancer: Along with Kilowog, he serves as Hal's {{foil}} being pragmatically heroic and cynical. |
| 272 | * LastOfHisKind: Implied in "Loss". Razer remarks that his home planet was a dead world in the Forgotten Zone. As Razer had a sword and shield in flashbacks, it's highly unlikely his people were spacefaring. |
| 273 | * MadnessMantra: When Ilana dies: "I came back...! I came back for you...!" |
| 274 | * MeaningfulName: |
| 275 | ** Besides the obvious implication of its homonym "razor" (a sharp implement), it's also the present active form of the verb "raze" (tear to the ground). |
| 276 | ** Also his species: the creators have stated that he is from the planet Volkreg (named for producers Giancarlo '''Vol'''pe and Jim '''Kr'''i'''eg'''.) |
| 277 | * NeverBareHeaded: Wears a horned headdress in costume and a skullcap/cowl in civilian clothes. His wife wore a hood, so this may be a cultural thing. Would definitely make sense for desert-dwellers, since [[TruthInTelevision covering up DOES help keep you from dying of heat stroke or getting unholy sunburn.]] |
| 278 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler:Right after telling Aya he loves her in "Loss", he goes back on it in the next episode, claiming he can't love her because she's JustAMachine. Aya is so heartbroken that she shuts off her emotions and ends up ''replacing the Anti-Monitor''. While it's nothing new to see Razer suddenly retreat into his metaphorical shell, he could not have chosen a worse time to do it. Razer himself is painfully aware of this.]] |
| 279 | * OneHeadTaller: Than Ilana and Aya, his wife and love interest respectively. |
| 280 | * PerpetualFrowner: He can show shock, sorrow, smugness, and even happiness, but mostly he just looks angry and/or grumpy. |
| 281 | * PetTheDog: When Aya comes up with a new Lantern oath for him, since he finds the old one abhorrent, he thanks her for the effort despite the fact that only the old oath works. |
| 282 | * ThePowerOfHate: Uses it despite the disgust and shame he feels for having to do so. In "Blue Hope", he realizes that it can be used for good, even if the power itself isn't. |
| 283 | * PutOnABus: After the first half of Season One. When asked where Razer is, Hal says he's "on sabbatical". It turns out he's on Odym, the new homeworld for the Blue Lantern Corps. |
| 284 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: They glow red when he loses control of his anger. |
| 285 | * {{Robosexual}}: A ''very'' complicated version. Razer understandably has extreme difficulty reconciling his feelings for Aya, as she is a robot, he is a bereaved widower, and Aya is closely modeled after his deceased wife. The fact that [[spoiler:Aya is a true sentient]] helps him deal with it, but far too late. |
| 286 | * ScreamingWarrior: Part and parcel of being a Red Lantern; RAGE! you know? |
| 287 | * SingleTear: As he makes his way to [[spoiler:kill Aya in the series finale.]] |
| 288 | * TheSnarkKnight: He often makes pessimistic comments about the situation when in Hal's team, with a heavy use of SarcasmMode. |
| 289 | * SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:To the Science Director. She had tried to seal away Aya's emotions because they made her impossible to control, but Razer reawakened those emotions.]] |
| 290 | * StartOfDarkness: The Spider Guild's torture device reveals the story of how he became a Red Lantern. |
| 291 | * SuicideByCop: He tries to goad Hal into killing him. When Hal realizes Razer ''wants'' to die, [[DefiedTrope he refuses.]] |
| 292 | * SurroundedByIdiots: He sometimes feels this way around Hal and Kilowog, and shows this by throwing sarcastic comments at them. |
| 293 | * TallDarkAndSnarky: Or rather, Tall, Pale And Snarky. |
| 294 | * TokenEvilTeammate: Before his CharacterDevelopment started to develop, he was focused on the mission and suffers from a lack of empathy to anything outside of it. |
| 295 | * TokenGoodTeammate: While he was still loyal to Atrocitus, Razer was the only one to voice any objections to killing innocent people in pursuit of their goals. |
| 296 | * TookALevelInKindness: His time on Odym has softened him, though he's still a rather angry fellow. However, he's become insignificantly more polite. |
| 297 | * TragicHero: From losing his loved one, to blowing up a planet and being an accessory to several murders, Razer has just been through too much. This may also explain his harsh demeanor. |
| 298 | * TraumaCongaLine: In order: His wife died. He was forced to blow up a planet. [[spoiler:He found out his wife was killed by his former leader]], he was stuck in a torture device that replayed the worst memory of his life, he suffocated to the point of blacking out when a mind-stealer couldn't use his ring to keep him breathing. [[spoiler:Aya died, came back, and went on a rampage after Razer told her he didn't love her. Then Aya returned to the side of good, only to kill herself to save all biological life.]] The universe just doesn't want him to be happy but he takes the last one surprisingly well. |
| 299 | * {{Tsundere}}: Toward Aya. She's the only one he's nice to. [[spoiler:In the mid-season finale, his feelings for her allow the Star Sapphires to teleport him to her location but refuses to tell her how he did so. He finally admits it in "Loss", then tries to go back on it. That backfires ''horribly''. He also warms up to Hal and Kilowog after his return]]. |
| 300 | * UnstoppableRage: He beat Atrocitus when it was revealed that Atrocitus [[spoiler:killed Ilana]]. [[spoiler:Razer also overcame the nullification effect of the Blue Lantern rings when Aya was shot by a Manhunter]]. |
| 301 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[spoiler:Retracting his declaration of love towards Aya, and later, telling her that in times of strife, he puts emotion aside and focuses on his task, result in Aya denouncing love as nothing but a source of pain, suppressing her own emotions, and assuming control of the Manhunters after the Anti-Monitor's defeat.]] |
| 302 | * VagueAge: It's really not clear just how old Razer is supposed to be. Hal and Kilowog refer to him as "kid" fairly consistently, and it seems unlikely that Hal is any older than mid to late-20s. Kilowog is probably the older of the pair. This implies Razer is younger than everyone else, yet he was married and has a genius-level knowledge of engineering. |
| 303 | ** The creators have stated that Razer is [[https://twitter.com/VLirael/status/294725100035526656 the equivalent of 19 years old in Volkregian years]], which may not be [[BizarreAlienBiology the same as in human years]]. |
| 304 | * ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: A gender-flipped example. Do ''not'' hurt Aya. You will regret it. |
| 305 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Saint Walker. Razer provides the vitriol. Notably, Razer shared his past with Saint Walker, something he hasn't even been willing to do with Hal, Kilowog, or Aya (who discovered it on her own). |
| 306 | * YankTheDogsChain: [[spoiler:In "Loss", he is ready let go of his widow pain and ready to start fresh with Aya. Then the Anti-Monitor shows up and kills her. Then, after Aya's FaceHeelTurn and back again, she dies again, seemingly much more permanently, and he embarks on a quest to locate her (because he refuses to believe she's really dead) without any idea where to start.]] |

| 309 | !!The Red Lantern Corps |
| 310 | |
| 311 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 312 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: The Red Lantern Corps in the comics didn't show up until after the Sinestro Corps was founded, when this continuity has the Red Lanterns appear before Sinestro has even been kicked out of the Green Lantern Corps, which in effect also makes them the first Lantern Corps besides the Green Lanterns to appear in this continuity instead of the Sinestro Corps. |
| 313 | * AdaptationalIntelligence: In the comics, most Red Lanterns are TheBerserker, so consumed with rage that they can barely ''speak'' until Atrocitus started experimenting to make more intelligent Lanterns. Here, every Red Lantern stays as clear-headed as before they were inducted into the Corps from the start. |
| 314 | * BadassCreed: |
| 315 | -> ''"With blood and rage of crimson red, we fill men's souls with darkest dread and twist your minds to pain and hate. We'll burn you all—that is your fate!"'' |
| 316 | * {{Bowdlerize}}: The Red Lantern oath, seen above in BadassCreed, is altered for the series in the second and third lines. In the comics, it was "ripped from a corpse so freshly dead, together with our hellish hate," instead of "we fill men's souls with darkest dread, and twist your minds to pain and hate." Ripped corpses and hellish hate are not exactly family friendly. |
| 317 | * HeWhoFightsMonsters: In getting revenge on the Guardians, the Red Lantern Corps has become just as bad. Atrocitus in particular has become worse. |
| 318 | * KarmaHoudini: Though the Guardians blame themselves and try to atone for their actions against them, the Red Lanterns's crimes are ultimately swept under the rug in exchange for the ceasefire. Atrocitous is imprisoned but the Red Lanterns are never punished for their genocidal actions and Zilious's murder of a Green Lantern in the opening episode goes unmentioned. Similarly, later recruits like Drusa and Ragnar, who weren't unjustly wronged like the others, continue to stay on the RL's staff. |
| 319 | * {{Revenge}}: Their plan is to get revenge on the Guardians for their past atrocities. |
| 320 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Their status is unknown after [[spoiler:Aya goes off the deep end]]. |

| 326 | |
| 327 | Leader of the Red Lantern Corps. His world was destroyed when the Manhunters ravaged the Forgotten Zone. He created the Red Lanterns to exact vengeance upon the Guardians, who he believed sent the Manhunters on purpose. Despite his crusade being based on the deaths of so many, he is willing to do far worse if it means having his revenge. |
| 328 | ---- |
| 329 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: Mostly for animation reasons. He's wrinkled as hell in the comics. |
| 330 | * AdaptationalVillainy: His comic book incarnation is by no means squeaky clean, but he's an anti-hero who cares for innocents. In this series, he's genocidal and will manipulate potential recruits into joining by forcing tragedy upon them. [[spoiler:Poor Razer found this out.]] |
| 331 | * ArcVillain: The main antagonist for the the first half of the season. He kickstarts the Red Lantern War to take revenge against the Guardians for destroying his sector in the past. |
| 332 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Hal could stand against Zilius Zox or Razer with relative match, but Atrocitus was way out of his league. During their FinalBattle, he still shows this. Hal holds his own slightly better, but Atrocitus dominates the fight until Hal's HeroicSecondWind kicks in. |
| 333 | * BadassBoast: "I am Atrocitus, Lord and Master of the Red Lantern Corps. I am the one who will destroy the Guardians and all they stand for. I am ''wrath''. I am ''hate''. I am ''RIGHTEOUS VENGEANCE!''" |
| 334 | * BadBoss: Gives Zox a boot to the face for questioning his plans. |
| 335 | * BerserkButton: When Atrocitus learns that Hal is alive (having fought him in the pilot), he responds with a ''very'' annoyed "You!" Seems Hal left quite the impression. Later, he accepts an offer [[spoiler:from Aya]] to fight Carol simply because killing her would hurt Hal. |
| 336 | * BreathWeapon: He gets some good mileage out of it, [[spoiler:and one shot successfully killed Ghia'ta]]. |
| 337 | * TheCorrupter: [[spoiler:He engineered a war on Razer's homeworld and murdered his wife in order to recruit Razer as a Red Lantern.]] |
| 338 | * DarkMessiah: He comports himself as much a holy man as a warlord, and Shard includes a ''temple'' that casts him in a darkly messianic light. |
| 339 | * DidntThinkThisThrough: Telling Razer [[spoiler:the truth about his wife's death]] was a spectacular KickTheDog moment, but Atrocitus was clearly unprepared for [[UnstoppableRage Razer's reaction]]. |
| 340 | * EvilIsBigger: He's bigger than both Hal's team and his followers. |
| 341 | * EvilPlan: Revenge on the Green Lanterns for the loss of his homeworld. |
| 342 | * EvilSoundsDeep: He's voiced by Jonathan Adams, who's known for his deep, Creator/JamesEarlJones-esque voice. |
| 343 | * FreudianExcuse: The Guardians destroyed his homeworld (and very likely scarred him), and he seeks revenge on them. Notably even Hal tells him point blank that he's right to feel angry for what happened. |
| 344 | * GlowingEyesOfDoom: It's subtle, but Atrocitus' eyes glow when he's angrier than usual. |
| 345 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: Has a large scar on his face, with one cheek burned or ripped away. |
| 346 | * HeWhoFightsMonsters: If he was even good in the first place he's definitely bad now. |
| 347 | * {{Hypocrite}}: He claims to be opposing the Guardians and the Green Lantern Corps because they destroyed his planet. He has no problem doing the same to worlds protected by the Lanterns, which he says is for "the greater good". |
| 348 | * KnightTemplar: He ''will'' bring the Guardians to account for destroying his world--and anyone (or any planet) he thinks is in his way is dead meat. |
| 349 | * LargeAndInCharge: He dwarfs his followers; even Skallox, despite this guy being almost as big as Kilowog. |
| 350 | * ManipulativeBastard: [[spoiler:He was the mastermind behind the wars on Razer's planet, and killed his wife so he would be recruitable as a Red Lantern.]] |
| 351 | -->'''Atrocitus:''' [[spoiler:It was ''I ''who conquered your world, who set your warlords against each other, to create destruction, and chaos, and hate! It was ''I'' who saw your potential and recruited you, and when I saw you needed only a nudge to become a truly hateful creature, then I sealed your fate. ''It was I who slaughtered your '''precious Illana.''''']] |
| 352 | * MotiveDecay: His reappearance in season 2 has him out for revenge against Hal and anyone close to him, [[spoiler:even ignoring all the Manhunters around him]]. This ''may'' be easier to swallow with him being a hypocrite, [[spoiler:but the killers of his sector are everywhere, and he doesn't even acknowledge the fact]]. Then again, he's been in a prison since his defeat, so he might not have been aware of what was happening at the time. |
| 353 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: There are a number of terms that his name would fit with: pain, evil, etc. |
| 354 | * NiceJobFixingItVillain: He probably shouldn't have told Razer that he was the one who [[spoiler:killed his wife]]. |
| 355 | * NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Talks about avenging those lost by the Manhunters, but his LackOfEmpathy to anyone he hurts in the same way shows he's just a hate-filled madman. |
| 356 | * ObviouslyEvil: Seriously, [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast look at the guy's name]], to say nothing of his demonic appearance. Ironically, he considers ''himself'' the good guy, since he's got it in for the Guardians for destroying his homeworld. Played with in that Hal admits that his anger is justified. |
| 357 | * ThePowerOfHate: Uses it, advocates it, and spreads it. |
| 358 | * ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: In the mid-season finale, he mentions that he has waited centuries to take his revenge on the Guardians. |
| 359 | * RedemptionRejection: In "Homecoming", Hal admits that what the Manhunters did to the Atrocitus' people was a tragedy, and that his rage was earned, but offers the Green Lanterns' aid in helping to rebuild the Forgotten Zone as restitution. But Atrocitus is too far gone and consumed with hatred to take the offer. |
| 360 | --> '''Atrocitus''': You can help, Earth man. Your dying screams shall help soothe the restless souls ''of our dead!'' |
| 361 | * RevengeByProxy: He was more than happy to engage in a ForcedPrizeFight if it meant getting to kill Carol Ferris, Hal's one true love. |
| 362 | * RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His EvilPlan in a nutshell. |
| 363 | * TheUnfettered: And how! |
| 364 | * VillainHasAPoint: Hal flat out tells him that he has every reason to hate the Guardians for what happened. The problem is that he's so consumed with rage that he refuses to consider alternate ways and is willing to inflict the same pain on others |
| 365 | * WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Twisted and evil though he may be, Atrocitus' villainy is driven by the pain and rage he feels over the loss of his homeworld. |
| 366 | * WorfHadTheFlu: In "Love is a Battlefield", he claims that his previous loss to Hal was due to fatigue from conquering Oa. Considering he barely did anything before fighting Hal, it's obvious he's just nursing his bruised ego. |

| 374 | ---- |
| 375 | * AlliterativeName: '''Z'''ilius '''Z'''ox. |
| 376 | * AxCrazy: Even Atrocitus doesn't display as much pleasure in killing as this guy. When Razer comments it's pointless to kill a Green Lantern because his ring will find a new owner, Zox merely replies that they will be able to kill that too. Similarly, when Razer helped destroy Rev's planet, he was insanely happy and he took a sadistic pleasure in torturing Razer and being ordered to execute him. |
| 377 | * BigBadWannabe: After succeeding Atrocitus, he starts displaying megalomania and plots to betray the Guardians, but it's obvious he isn't much of a threat. |
| 378 | * BloodKnight: Until the Manhunters get involved he loved fighting. |
| 379 | * BreathWeapon: Unlike most Red Lanterns in this show, he shoots his red energy from his mouth like Red Lanterns in the comic. It helps that his mouth is freaking enormous, especially compared to his tiny little baby arms. |
| 380 | * ButtMonkey: Regularly smacked around by Atrocitus |
| 381 | * {{Cephalothorax}}: Lampshaded by Hal, who once called Zox a "demented beachball". |
| 382 | * DirtyCoward: Would rather hide on the ''Interceptor'' than fight the Manhunters. |
| 383 | * TheDragon: Atrocitus' NumberTwo. |
| 384 | * DragonAscendant: [[spoiler:He becomes leader of the Red Lanterns after Hal takes down Atrocitus.]] |
| 385 | * FangsAreEvil: Along with the 'blood' in his oath, you'd think he was a vampire. |
| 386 | * HeroKiller: The first scene of the series has him killing a Green Lantern, though we can't see it, we can can hear it, and it doesn't sound pleasant. |
| 387 | * InsistentTerminology: That's ''[[TheyCallMeMisterTibbs Prime Magistrate]]'' Zox to you. |
| 388 | * ItsAllAboutMe: When the crew is being chased by Manhunters in "Loss", he's more concerned for his own safety than theirs. |
| 389 | * {{Jerkass}}: Consistently unpleasant, even to his allies. The only one Zox treats with any actual respect is Atrocitus, and even that is largely sycophancy. |
| 390 | * MonochromaticEyes: Pure white with no pupil or iris. |
| 391 | * OhMyGods: Swears to a deity named Brotz on occasion. |
| 392 | * PetTheDog: For all his jerkass tendencies and anger, when he goes into battle against the Anti-Monitor who seems invincible, and the Manhunter army which destroyed his sector, he wishes Hal and the crew good luck in the fight. |
| 393 | * TheStarscream: Rather amusing, considering his [[Creator/TomKenny voice]] [[WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated actor]]. |
| 394 | ** Subverted in a tie-in comic, where he's seen experimenting with some powerful crystals, creating Goldface, and he continues to hide it from Atrocitus, trying to divert attention off of it. However, he merely wanted to impress Atrocitus with his creation, and if it failed, he would suffer none of the consequences of such failure, because Atrocitus didn't know about the experiment. |
| 395 | ** After the war is over, he explains to Bleez that he intends to use the Guardians' offer of peace to rebuild their strength, so they won't lose another war when they start it. |
| 396 | * SycophanticServant: He's quick to agree with Atrocitus. |

| 403 | * AdaptedOut: Owing to the show being intended for younger audiences, and the fact that the Sinestro Corps doesn't exist yet in this continuity, her backstory of becoming a Red Lantern when some Sinestro Corpsmen razed her planet and tried to have their way with her is left out. |
| 404 | * AxCrazy: After the Reds are forced to make peace with the Guardians, she wants to kill their envoy and hide the body. She even offers to dig the hole. |

| 406 | * CombatStilettos: She can fly, so it's not much of an issue. |
| 407 | * DarkActionGirl: Evil, vicious and female. |
| 408 | * DemotedToExtra: In the comics, she was TheDragon. In the series, Zox is TheDragon, so she has less screen time, though more than most Red Lanterns since she is the leader of the QuirkyMinibossSquad. She also gets to be Zox's Dragon later. |
| 409 | * DesignatedGirlFight: With Aya in "Regime Change". |
| 410 | * TheDragon: To Zox, following his DragonAscendant status. |
| 411 | * {{Flight}}: Not just from her ring, but from her wings, as well. This proved useful when her ring got shut off in "Regime Change". |
| 412 | * GunshipRescue: When Zox calls for backup, she comes in Shard [[spoiler:to rescue the ''Interceptor'', blasting at the Anti-Monitor with its cannons and Liberators. However, this proves a mere annoyance to the Anti-Monitor, who absorbs the Liberators then Shard. She evacuates with the rest of the population.]] |
| 413 | * NavelDeepNeckline: She [[http://giancarlovolpe.tumblr.com/post/38338983734/i-love-our-overseas-studio-cgcg-they-sent-this would have had this]], but it didn't clear Standards and Practices. |

| 416 | * WingedHumanoid: A departure from the comics, where she has skeletal wing constructs after her real ones were amputated. Her wings have holes, but are otherwise intact. |

| 446 | * EyelessFace: He doesn't have eyes, merely the Red Lantern symbol on his forehead. His staff, however, has a flaming eye, and it evidently allows him to see, given how it follows movement and sound. |
| 447 | * GoodShepherd: In a GoodIsBadAndBadIsGood kind of way. Yes, he belongs to a ReligionOfEvil, but he thinks the Guardians are the evil ones and that he's preaching a righteous cause. As noted above, he's apparently this trope to his own flock. |
| 448 | * ReligionOfEvil: He preaches Atrocitus' doctrine of rage and hate. |
| 449 | * StaffOfAuthority: To put it simply, the man has [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Sauron's tower]], complete with eye, as a staff. |
| 450 | * TokenGoodTeammate: The closest the Corps has to one after Razer left. While he's still the supporter of a genocidal cause, he's one of the few Red Lanterns shown that isn't a complete {{Jerkass}}, and he seems to genuinely care about the other Lanterns. |

| 456 | |
| 457 | Iolande's brother. He is obsessed with becoming a Green Lantern, so obsessed that he murdered one thinking that the ring would come to him. Naturally, this failed, and Ragnar quickly spiraled out of control. His rage at his continued failure eventually drew a Red Lantern ring, granting him the power he was seeking. |
| 458 | ---- |
| 459 | * AdaptationalAttractiveness: His face is less wrinkled and grotesque than how he was depicted in the comics. |
| 460 | * AmbitionIsEvil: His desire to become a Green Lantern and a king lead him to the DarkSide. |
| 461 | * AscendedFanboy: He was so eager to become a Green Lantern that he murdered one to get his ring. Needless to say, it didn't work and he {{Face Heel Turn}}ed into a ''Red'' Lantern. See EvilCannotComprehendGood. |
| 462 | * BaldOfEvil: Double subverted as his head was the same before becoming a red lantern. |
| 463 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: He was acting and looking pretty nice in his first appearance, defending Iolande and expressing his admiration for the Green Lanterns. It's not until he believes his wish to become a Green Lantern has come true that we see his real self. |
| 464 | * BlackEyesOfEvil: Double subverted as his eyes were the same before becoming a Red Lantern. |
| 465 | * DirtyCoward: When his schemes are uncovered, Ragnar takes Iolande hostage and begs for her mercy when she overpowers him. |
| 466 | * EntitledBastard: Ragnar believes that he deserves to be king of Betrassus and a Green Lantern, but doesn't understand why he's unworthy to be either. |
| 467 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: Unable to see that his obsessive desire and extremes he's willing to go through to become a Green Lantern, as well as how he was going to use his power, are the very reasons why he'll never become one. |
| 468 | * EvilIsPetty: Unlike the other Red Lanterns, whose rage was born from incredible personal loss (Atrocitus and Zox's homeworlds, Razer's wife), Ragnar's ring is drawn to him by his jealousy toward his sister and rage over being denied the throne he doesn't deserve. |
| 469 | * GreenEyedMonster: He envied his sister's right to the throne. That the ring chose her over him only serves to fuel his rage. |
| 470 | * INeverSaidItWasPoison: After the disappearance of Green Lantern Duloc, he tells Kilowog that he is glad there are two Green Lanterns on the planet, even though there are three. The fact that he forgets to count Duloc indicates that he knows Duloc is dead, and no one knew that at the time. |
| 471 | * InsaneTrollLogic: He believes that he'll be made worthy of a Green Lantern ring through murdering the current one on his planet, not realizing that Green Lanterns are chosen for their selflessness and heroism. |
| 472 | * ItsAllAboutMe: He murdered one Green Lantern and tried to murder another because he considered himself inherently worthy of their power, and he despises and tries to kill his sister because he feels the same way about the throne of Betrassus. It's even more evident when he becomes a Red Lantern; other Red Lanterns, even Atrocitus, are driven by rage over a personal loss. Ragnar is effectively driven by an overblown temper tantrum over his justly denied ambitions. |
| 473 | -->'''Ragnar''': This is ''my'' planet! I was born to lead! |
| 474 | * KarmaHoudini: Downplayed. While Ragnar escapes the prison, joins the Red Lanterns and is still free and alive the last time we see him, his attempted takeover of Betrassus is foiled and [[YouCantGoHomeAgain it's most likely he'll be attacked on sight if he ever returns to it.]] |
| 475 | * ThePowerOfHate: Gets a Red Lantern ring thanks to his rage. As a notable exception to the other Red Lanterns (unless their origins change for this series), he's the only Red Lantern who is purely motivated by selfishness. Whereas they got the required rage due to the loss of someone close to them, he's only driven by an inferiority complex. By comparison, even this adaptation's far less sympathetic Atrocitus is still driven by great personal tragedy (the loss of his homeworld). |
| 476 | * SiblingYinYang: With Iolande; Ragnar is a cruel and selfish Red Lantern, while his sister is a kind and noble Green Lantern. |
| 477 | * SmugSnake: Neither as smart nor as capable as he thinks he is; Hal and Kilowog manage to deduce his plot and con him into exposing his own crimes, and later, Ragnar is only a serious threat because he has the backing of the other Red Lanterns. |
| 478 | * SparedByTheAdaptation: Iolande merely had him imprisoned after his betrayal. In the comic, he was sentenced to death. |
| 479 | * TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: His comics counterpart was never affiliated with the Red Lantern Corps, having been sentenced to death and beheaded long before the Red Lanterns made their debut (the only Lantern Corps besides the Green Lantern Corps that existed at the time was the Sinestro Corps, which was established a few months before Ragnar first appeared). |
| 480 | * UngratefulBastard: Iolande spared his life despite Ragnar murdering Duloc, trying to kill Kilowog, and committing treason by trying to usurp the throne from his sister. Ragnar doesn't appreciate the mercy ([[{{Hypocrite}} despite begging for quarter when defeated]]) and just becomes more vicious towards his sister while in prison. |
| 481 | * TheWrongfulHeirToTheThrone: He took over the place with help from the Red Lanterns. |

| 510 | Earth's second Green Lantern. Originally set to be Green Lantern after Abin Sur's death, Hal was chosen instead because he was located closer to Abin's crash site. In the second half of the first season, the Guardians choose Guy to watch over Sector 2814 while Hal is unavailable. |
| 511 | ---- |
| 512 | * TheAce: For all his bluster, he's a very competent Lantern (which may partly be ''why'' he's so full of himself) and true to the trope, ''everybody'' in the GLC seems to love him, even ''Appa Ali Apsa'' who doesn't like anyone. Hal comes around eventually, though he draws the line at [[spoiler:giving him permission to date Carol after they break up]]. Guy literally calls himself this in "Ranx". |

| 515 | * BashBrothers: If he and Hal can stop one-upping each other for ten seconds, they easily fall into this. |

| 517 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Has this for everyone, but most noticably Hal. It's used by the writers to establish him as a {{Nice Guy}}. Despite his obvious rivalry with Hal, Guy seems to take protecting his sector's previous Green Lantern as a priority despite knowing full well that Hal can hold up quite well on his own. Most notable moments are when he pulls Hal out of the way from a spike trap wall in his introductory episode and then later in the finale he asks Kilowog to help him cover Hal while the latter is rushing into the thick of battle. |
| 518 | * TheBroCode: Defied. Guy almost ''immediately'' asks for Carol's cell number once she and Hal had broken up. |
| 519 | ** There's a moment where the camera takes time to focus on Guy's expression as Hal leaves and the look on his face implies that he did it so that Hal could have an outlet for his sorrow/frustration since the latter would not accept his sympathies. |
| 520 | * BromanticFoil: To Hal. |
| 521 | * CommonalityConnection: He and Hal start bonding very quickly whenever they find out they have things in common starting with their general opinion of the Guardians, the inability to have a love life due to the nature of their job, sports, and even the simple fact that they're the only human Green Lanterns. |
| 522 | -->'''Guy:''' We Earth Lanterns gotta watch each other's backs, right? |
| 523 | -->'''Hal:''' You bet, pal. |
| 524 | -->'''Guy:''' [hugs him without warning] |
| 525 | * DullSurprise: His response to Chaselon's report that Hal's team is the only one not among their army. The look on his face says it all. |
| 526 | * FeudEpisode: His debut episode centered around him and Hal constantly fighting and then teaming up with each other. |
| 527 | * FieryRedhead: Downplayed; it's more a slow roast than a blazing fire. |
| 528 | * FriendlyRivalry: With Hal. |
| 529 | * FriendlessBackground: This seems to be the case as Guy mentions that no one will miss him if he disappears...and is a little bit ''too'' happy at getting a fist bump and being called "pal" by a fellow Green Lantern. |
| 530 | * FriendshipFavoritism: Despite being friends with almost everyone on the show, he seems to favor Hal the most. |
| 531 | * HeroOfAnotherStory: Not only does everyone seem to know him, he gets the fastest promotion to Honor Guard in the history of the Corps. That's not something you get out of pure likability. |
| 532 | * HiddenDepths: Guy sympathizes with Hal about not being able to get a love life...or a life at all. Were he to disappear, no one would even notice. When Hal mentions that Guy at least has fans Guy simply dismissed them. |
| 533 | ** This could also be why he doesn't keep a secret identity. |
| 534 | * JerkJock: Toes a line between this and LovableJock; he's rude and full of himself but also friendly. |
| 535 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He comes off as a self centered egomaniac, but underneath it, he's not that bad of a guy and gets along well with Hal once they get on the same page. |
| 536 | ** He immediately pulls Hal out of harms way after he just insulted him moments earlier...and then proceeds to gloat about it. Guy even seems to genuinely care for and respect him despite their rivalry. |
| 537 | * LonelyTogether: Him and Hal qualify as this. |
| 538 | * NonUniformUniform: As in the comics, he's got a decidedly more casual approach to the Green Lantern outfit. |
| 539 | * PhraseCatcher: "''Say'', is that Guy Gardner?" |
| 540 | * PraetorianGuard: Gets promoted to it in "Ranx", the fastest such promotion in the history of the Corps. |
| 541 | * SmugSmiler: Constantly has one on but is especially smirky while telling Hal he's just been bumped up to Honor Guard, the fastest promotion a GL has ever had. |
| 542 | * SuperheroesStaySingle: Discusses it with Hal, noting that lives such as theirs tend to put a strain on personal relationships and as such he avoids them. |
| 543 | * TalkToTheFist: Ended up on the receiving end of this after he carelessly asked Hal for Carol's cell number ''right'' after she had just broke up with him on the phone. |
| 544 | * YouAreNotAlone: Tries to invoke this with Hal when Carol had just ended their relationship over the phone. He places a comforting hand on the GL's shoulder and tells him he knows exactly what he's going through. Hal, however, refuses to believe him. |

Zig-zagged in that the show was intended to last longer than it did, and the foreshadowing provided by the fear-inducing yellow crystals as well as the production team confirming that season two would've started with Sinestro framing Hal Jordan make it likely that Sinestro would eventually turn against the Green Lanterns and form the Sinestro Corps as he did in the comics had the series not been cancelled. |
| 602 | * AdaptationalLateAppearance: In this continuity, he doesn't appear until after every other Lantern Corps besides the Orange Lantern Corps had been introduced, when his comics counterpart had been kicked out of the Green Lantern Corps, became a prominent enemy of Hal Jordan and founded his own Lantern Corps long before the Red Lantern Corps, the Star Sapphire Corps and the Blue Lantern Corps entered the picture. |
| 603 | * BrokenPedestal: It's implied that Sinestro allowing a prisoner to die shook Hal's faith in his friend and idol. |
| 604 | * CombatPragmatist: He's very clever when it comes to dealing with an enemy. |
| 605 | * CowboyCop: Hal's idol in this regard, being loose with the rules and disliking the authoritarian Guardians. |
| 606 | * DeadpanSnarker: Exchanges WittyBanter with Hal in a calm voice despite the Spider Guild firing on him. |
| 607 | * LoopholeAbuse: As Hal notes, Lanterns aren't allowed to kill (at least with their rings, which in certain continuities is a built-in restriction). Sinestro points out that he didn't kill the criminal, just didn't save him from suffocating to death. |
| 608 | * MurderByInaction: He didn't kill Neuroxis, he just didn't save him from suffocating to death. |
| 609 | * TheParagon: A personal hero of Hal's, who considers him the greatest Green Lantern. |
| 610 | * PayEvilUntoEvil: He deliberately sets up his plan to expose the mindjumping Neuroxis so that, whatever it does, it will die. It had spent the entire episode trying to get the crew to kill each other, caused the Spider Guild's station to self-destruct, and probably had a very large track record. As a result, Sinestro's action is, to some extent, understandable. He even points out the havoc Neuroxis could wreak if allowed to reach Oa. |
| 611 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Even moreso than Hal, and he's the one Hal got it from. |
| 612 | * ShadowArchetype: To Hal; they share a disregard for the rules, clever planning skills, and NervesOfSteel, but Sinestro takes Hal's CowboyCop attitude into KnightTemplar territory, allowing a criminal to die and even taunting him as it happens, which shocks Hal. Also, when Hal breaks the rules, he owns up to his actions and accepts the consequences; Sinestro, on the other hand, claimed Neuroxis' death to be an accident, covering up his deliberate role in the criminal's fate. |
| 613 | * ASinisterClue: He wears his ring on his left hand. |

| 624 | * GoodParents: As seen when he interacts with his daughter. When he died while saving his people, his daughter missed him greatly. |

| 642 | |
| 643 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 644 | * ArbitrarySkepticism: They're not quick to accept any claims of grave danger to the Corps or the universe in general. It took Hal relaying visual proof of the Red Lanterns for them to accept that their Frontier Lanterns weren't just suffering a string of unlucky accidents. They've gotten slightly better about it in the second half; though they don't accept Hal's assertion that all the Manhunters are waking up on its own, they permit him to form [[TheTeam a team]] to investigate it thoroughly. |
| 645 | * FourFingeredHands: natural for the guardian race. |
| 646 | * GoodIsNotNice: Nominally, they are a force for good in the universe. In practice, they are quite fallible and callous save for Ganthet. |
| 647 | * MiniatureSeniorCitizens: They're all extremely old and don't come up to Hal's waist. |
| 648 | * ObstructiveBureaucrat: All of them to some extent, as they consider the Corps' reputation to be as or more important than the individual sectors they protect. Some of their more rebellious members acknowledge that, as a group, getting things done is difficult. |
| 649 | * OnlySixFaces: The only distinguishing features between them are their hairstyles and the fact that the women have visible eyelashes and lips. |
| 650 | * WillfullyWeak: The Guardians once possessed powers far greater than the Corps does now, but gave up those powers when they created the Corps. [[spoiler:The Science Director thought that was a bad idea and never blocked her powers.]] |

| 655 | |
| 656 | A Guardian of the Universe. By far the most vocal member of the council, Appa Ali Apsa believes in the Guardians' mission to maintain order in the universe, which puts him at odds with Hal's sometimes chaotic actions. |
| 657 | ---- |
| 658 | * AdaptationalHeroism: He gets this ''and'' AdaptationalVillainy. The comics version started off as the Guardian who was most interested in human emotions, then went mad from loneliness, killed a GL, stole cities from across the galaxy and was eventually killed by the other Guardians. This version doesn't quite reach either of those extremes, just being a bit of a {{Jerkass}}. |
| 659 | * GoYeHeroesGoAndDie: He's nothing if not honest about the odds the GLC will face against [[spoiler:Aya and her Manhunters]]. |
| 660 | * HeelRealization: He's fairly unrepentant about the Manhunters laying waste to the Forgotten Zone, but finally realizes their folly after the Red Lanterns come pretty close to killing him and Sayd points out that the fear they're feeling is the same that the Manhunter's victims felt. |
| 661 | * {{Jerkass}}: In contrast to his comic incarnation, who was sent to Earth in order to experience life there, this version of Appa displays a strong lack of empathy for people. His only consideration is respecting the rules of the Guardians. This puts him and Hal at odds, and he banishes Ganthet for feeling emotions. |
| 662 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: When Sayd points out that the fear they're feeling as Atrocitus is baring down on them is probably what the Manhunter's victims in the Forgotten Zone felt, he's visibly stunned by the comparison. |
| 663 | * NotSoAboveItAll: Even the stodgy and ill-tempered Appa Ali Apsa is friendly with Guy Gardner. |
| 664 | * TookALevelInKindness: When Sayd compares their imminent demise to what the victims of the Manhunters must have felt, he finally decides to do the right thing and make amends for their past failures. |
| 665 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: To him, the loss of one planet is an acceptable sacrifice to ensure the security of all the galaxy. |
| 666 | * WhatTheHellHero: He chews out Hal for preventing the Science Director from terminating Aya [[spoiler:because it allowed her to go AIIsACrapshoot and become the second ArcVillain.]] |
| 667 | * YouAreNumberSix: Tends to refer to Lanterns as "Green Lantern of Sector [X]". He ''may'' include their name for formal purposes. As a sign of his increasing dislike of Hal, he forgoes the "Green Lantern" bit entirely and just calls him "2814". Switching back to Hal's name shows that he's lightening up. |

| 675 | ---- |
| 676 | * BadassCreed: Wrote one for the Blue Lantern Corps. |
| 677 | -->''In fearful day, in raging night; with strong hearts full, our souls ignite. When all seems lost in the war of light, look to the stars, for hope burns bright!'' |
| 678 | * BatmanGambit: Showing Hal the prototype Interceptor during a "coffee break" after talking about the Frontier Lantern deaths. Naturally Jordan jumped at the chance to hijack it for a rescue mission. |
| 679 | * CoolOldGuy: He comes across as a grandfather who will give his grandchildren candy and say "Don't let me catch you eating that before dinner." |
| 680 | * GuileHero: While taking "the scenic route" to the commissary, Ganthet gives Hal the means to head to the Frontier. |
| 681 | * HopeBringer: "We need hope!" He's the founder of the Blue Lanterns for a reason. |
| 682 | * HopeSpringsEternal: DiscussedTrope in "Blue Hope". With or without the Cental Lantern Battery active, there will always be hope. |
| 683 | * NiceGuy: Anyone who can singlehandly ignite a Central Lantern Battery based on hope qualifies. |
| 684 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: In opposition to Appa's jerkass figure, he takes Hal's concerns seriously and provides a means to investigate them instead of writing him off on principle. |
| 685 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Seems to share Hal's sense of doing right no matter what the rules say. Ends up being what causes him to be banished by the other Guardians from Oa because they are of the opposite mind. |

After [[spoiler:Aya's FaceHeelTurn as the new leader of the Manhunters]], she aids Hal & co. in deciphering the Science Director's notes after they broke into her personal quarters and then distracts an enraged Appa when he goes looking for the group to imprison them for their actions. |
| 694 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the only named female seen amongst the Guardians until the second half of season one. |

| 700 | |
| 701 | * AbusiveParents: [[spoiler:If you consider her a mother to Aya, as she was her creator, then she fits to a T for being emotionally abusive and attempting to dissect her.]] |
| 702 | * AdaptationalHeroism: She gets this ''and'' AdaptationalVillainy. The original [[spoiler:Scar]] was an agent of Nekron and sought to destroy all life. This one is more of a jerkass mad scientist. On the other hand, the Unnamed Female Guardian who became [[spoiler:Scar]] had no notable evil qualities, being a standard guardian who helped defeat the Anti-Monitor, while this one is a ruthless WellIntentionedExtremist. |
| 703 | * BadassBoast: |
| 704 | ** "The Manhunters '''will''' obey the Guardians!" Followed by shutting them all down simultaneously. |
| 705 | ** Gives another one to the Anti-Monitor about how she existed back when he was nothing, and can return him to such. [[spoiler:She can't back this one up.]] |
| 706 | * BaldOfEvil: While almost all of the Guardians are bald, she's the only one that can be called ''evil''. |
| 707 | * CanonCharacterAllAlong: She's never given an actual name during the series until her reveal she was still alive, with her referring to herself as [[spoiler:scarred, causing Hal to label her as "Scar"]]. |
| 708 | * CompositeCharacter: She fits both AdaptationalHeroism and AdaptationalVillainy because she's one character, while in the comics [[spoiler:Scar]] was an undead entity, and The Guardian died when touched by the Anti-Monitor making them two different people. |
| 709 | * EveryoneHasStandards: Even ''she'' considered the creation of the Anti-Monitor to be a horrific mistake. |
| 710 | * EvilIsNotAToy: "Obey me!" was not her greatest idea. Krona was more powerful than her and he couldn't control the Anti-Monitor. That's why he sent it to another universe. |
| 711 | * AGodAmI: She seriously has one hell of a god complex about the Guardians' former powers she kept. When she declares that "I am a GUARDIAN", it sounds like she's leading up to a slightly different word. |
| 712 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: [[spoiler:Gets a nasty scar over her right eye after barely surviving her encounter with the Anti-Monitor.]] |
| 713 | * {{Jerkass}}: Appa is practically a saint by comparison. |
| 714 | ** When LANOS was switched into Aya's body and tried to advertise that fact, she dismissed it as an attempt at self-preservation. In other words, she was perfectly willing to dissect Aya when she ''knew'' Aya would do most anything to avoid it. |
| 715 | ** Later, when she discovers Aya is still alive, she's pretty pissed, and her only reason for wanting Aya offline is that she isn't behaving within expected parameters. She's at least sensible enough not to press the fact when challenged by Hal. |
| 716 | ** [[spoiler:When Aya dies, she considers it a good thing, and says so to Razer's face when it's obvious he's distraught about it. She's lucky Hal was there to claim she meant something else.]] |
| 717 | * JerkassHasAPoint: Even though she probably is one of the least sympathetic characters in the show, her affirmation that [[spoiler:Aya's evolution was dangerous turned out horribly correct in light of her FaceHeelTurn at the end of "Cold Fury." Then there's her logic for tricking the crew into hitting her with a potentially lethal warhead.]] |
| 718 | * ItsAllAboutMe: She places herself above even her fellow Guardians, believing she knows better than all of them. She also callously disregarding the feelings of others, and when the going gets tough, [[spoiler:tries to kill Hal and Kilowog for questioning her, then abandons them and Razer to the mercies of an extremely angry Aya after being responsible for her rage (and existence) to begin with.]] |
| 719 | * KarmaHoudini: While she ''does'' have [[spoiler:a huge scar on her face as a result of the Anti-Monitor's attack, and she's in hiding, she hasn't received any punishment per se for what she's done.]] |
| 720 | * MadScientist: It's in the name, and it's revealed that she [[spoiler:harvested a small piece of Ion to create Aya]]. No ethicl boundaries for this scientist. |
| 721 | * MrExposition: Explains the Anti-Monitor's back story and the importance of the Green-Red Lantern peace talks, then [[spoiler:Aya's creation in "Scarred".]] |
| 722 | * NeverFoundTheBody: She's apparently [[spoiler:vaporized by the Anti-Monitor, but actually teleported away.]] |
| 723 | * NoNameGiven: Credits only call her ''Science Director'', but fans of the Green Lantern mythos would know her better as [[spoiler:Scar]], which is confirmed [[spoiler:when the Anti-Monitor's beam gets her right in the face in "Cold Fury"]]. Hal uses her more familiar name in the finale. |
| 724 | * NotQuiteDead: As of "Scarred", she is [[spoiler:living in hiding]]. |
| 725 | * {{Pride}}: The Guardians aren't exactly humble, but this one takes the cake. She considered the other Guardians wrong to lock away their powers, so she never bothered to, as well as considering herself worthy of [[spoiler:using a portion of Ion to create Aya]]. She also reacts badly to being questioned, getting angry at best and [[spoiler:trying to kill Hal and Kilowog]] at worst. |
| 726 | * ScrewThisImOuttaHere: When her attempts to [[spoiler:destroy Aya with a warhead made of [[PowerNullifier yellow crystals]] like the ones in the Spider Guild prison fail, she callously leaves Hal, Kilowog, and Razer to Aya's mercy.]] |
| 727 | * VoiceOfTheLegion: [[PowerEchoes Whenever she makes use of her powers]], her voice gets an omnious echo effect. |
| 728 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:She tricks Hal and the crew into building a missile that will kill Aya (or was supposed to, rather) under the pretense that it will merely paralyze her, and fires it when Razer is still in blast range. When called on it, she points out that their affection for Aya is keeping them from doing what needs to be done, and the loss of two lives is a small price to pay to avert the end of all life.]] |
| 729 | * WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Seems rather interested in dissecting and terminating Aya. Fortunately, Hal had Aya's HeartDrive switched out in secret before that happened. |
| 730 | * YouAreNumberSix: Like Appa, she refers to Lanterns by their number except she's even more of a {{Jerkass}}. |
| 731 | * YouShallNotPass: Does this to the Manhunters, and shuts them all down. [[spoiler:Tries it on the Anti-Monitor but that doesn't work as well. She teleports away.]] |

In this continuity, Carol Ferris becomes a Star Sapphire by being drafted into the Star Sapphire Corps, which exists while Sinestro is still a Green Lantern. |
| 739 | * AmazonBrigade: They're all female. |

| 741 | * EmotionsVsStoicism: After explaining that they used to be the same species as the Guardians, Aga’po cites this as the reason they broke off. |
| 742 | * TheEmpath: They have the ability to sense love, it being the emotion that powers them. This even works on a galactic scale when used with their teleportation ability. |

| 745 | * MsFanservice: A whole group of them; those uniforms leave little to the imagination, something Carol Ferris [[MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch openly complains about.]] |
| 746 | * PinkMeansFeminine: They're an AmazonBrigade powered by love and clad in pink uniforms, despite the fact that their lantern color is officially purple. |
| 747 | * TeleportersAndTransporters: By using the love between two individuals as a guide, they can create a wormhole between their home planet and wherever their target is. [[spoiler:When Aya copies the ability, she can transport whatever she wants, but then she has the Anti-Monitor's power augmenting her.]] |
| 748 | * TheVamp: Initially, they seduced men in order to imprison them. |
| 749 | * WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: The ring makes them crazy about love. |

| 759 | '''Aga'po:''' [[ExactWords I am no man]]. I am Aga'po, Queen of the Zamarons! (''destroys him'') |
| 760 | * BenevolentBoss: Even before her HeelFaceTurn, the worst she does in response to Ghia'ta aiding Hal and his team is to say that she "has much to learn". Later, it turns out she did listen to Ghia'ta's arguments and let herself be convinced. |
| 761 | * BerserkButton: Don't insult love in front of her. |
| 762 | * BlueAndOrangeMorality: After learning Razer's true love was killed, she decided that the most clement thing to do was to [[MercyKill kill him as well]]. |
| 763 | * FantasticRacism: She has some shades of this toward robots, due to seeing them as emotionless creatures. |
| 764 | * GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: In her first appearance, she is an enemy. |
| 765 | * HeelFaceTurn: Becomes an ally to the Green Lanterns starting with her second appearance. |

| 768 | * MeaningfulName: Named after ''agape'', one of the four loves (in this case, selfless, unconditional love). |
| 769 | * MostCommonSuperpower: Since this is a comic adaptation, a superpowered lady with great endowment had to happen sooner or latter. |
| 770 | * PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Aga'po is staunchly misandrist, considering men inferior to women, unworthy of positions of power, and fit only to be kept in stasis. Thanks to Ghia'ta, Aga'po has grown out of both her sexism and her villainy by her second appearance. |
| 771 | * RankScalesWithAsskicking: Queen of the Star Sapphires and every bit the badass necessary for the job. |
| 772 | * RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: She personally takes part in fight when the Manhunters attack Zanmaron, proving quite a good fighter in the process. |
| 773 | * StatuesqueStunner: She's rather tall, and quite beautiful. |
| 774 | * StrawFeminist: Averted. She doesn't really espouse feminism (as she never makes any complaints about men being sexist per se) so much as outright ''misandry'' in her first appearance. She doesn't think much of men's intelligence, believing them to be a bunch of primitive wild animals who not only [[WomenAreWiser should be kept far, far away from any position of power]], but should also all be put into "love comas" whether they like it or not to keep them from ruining everything. |
| 775 | * WellIntentionedExtremist: Her position in her first appearance; yes, she traps males as a power source, but she truly believed it was for the greater good. Thankfully, she got better. |

| 787 | * IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Not specifically said, but it's clearly her position toward Hal and Carol, as properly befitting her reformed idea of love. |

| 807 | -->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JenniferHale [[labelnote:Foreign [=VAs=]]]Céline Melloul (FR), Creator/XochitlUgarte (LA)[[/labelnote]] |
| 808 | |
| 809 | * ActionGirl: For an untrained Lantern, she can handle herself well in a fight. |
| 810 | * AdaptationalHeroism: Despite becoming Star Sapphire, she doesn't turn evil and her initial antagonism towards Hal after becoming her comic book counterpart's alter ego was a result of WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity until she snaps back to herself in the same episode she dons her alter ego. |
| 811 | * AllWomenLoveShoes: Upon losing the Star Sapphire uniform, she says that while it didn't suit her, she will miss the boots. |
| 812 | * BattleCouple: With Hal in "Love is a Battlefield" against Atrocitus; apt title. |
| 813 | * CombatPragmatist: While fighting Atrocitus, Carol has no qualms about summoning back-up when she's outmatched by the Red Lantern, and she ends the fight by dropping a massive chunk of rock on Atrocitus while he's distracted by Hal. |
| 814 | * HeroicBystander: If it weren't for her, Atrocitus would have conquered Oan space due to an amnesiac Hal. |
| 815 | * LoveInterest: Hal's girlfriend. |
| 816 | * TheParagon: Ghia'ta and the other Star Sapphires hold her in high regard due to her greater understanding of love and emulate her example. [[spoiler:Because of this she was designated TheChampion of Zamaron when Aya attacked.]] |
| 817 | * PowerMakesYourHairGrow: She keeps her hair short normally, but the Star Sapphire ring gives her an extra foot-and-a-half in addition to the powers and outfit. |
| 818 | * SecretKeeper: She's the only non-Lantern to know Hal's identity. |
| 819 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: Her Star Sapphire outfit. Lampshaded by Hal in her first appearance, she herself bemoaned it the second time she had to suit up. |
| 820 | * TookALevelInBadass: Briefly when she is recruited by the Star Sapphire Corps. She gives it up when it becomes clear that they aren't on the same page. It still shows a remarkable amount of willpower on Carol's part, considering the Violet Light of Love is on the extreme edge of the emotional spectrum and thus the most potent, along with the Red Light of Rage. She gets the ring back in "Love is a Battlefield", and this time decides to keep it. |
| 821 | * {{Tsundere}}: Her relationship with Hal: One second, she's relieved he's alive, then yelling at him for wrecking a plane, the next they're almost kissing. This is exacerbated to {{Yandere}} extremes when she is first recruited as a Star Sapphire, where she displays extreme love toward Hal, then, when believing he was cheating on her, tries to ''kill'' him. This is just a side effect of the initial transformation, though, and wears off when she calms down. |
| 822 | * UnfazedEveryman: She takes Hal's true identity, becoming a Star Sapphire, and teleporting to a distant alien planet with a surprising amount of grace. |
| 823 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed.]] Her actions don't lead to any ''catastrophes'', but her definition of love as "Sacrifice" and "Doing what's best for the person you love" leads to [[spoiler:[[HopelessSuitor Ghia'ta's]] HeroicSacrifice to protect Hal from Atrocitus' BreathWeapon]]. |

| 827 | |
| 828 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 829 | |
| 830 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Like most of the other colored Lantern Corps, this continuity has the Blue Lantern Corps founded while Sinestro is still a Green Lantern, when in the comics no colored Lantern Corps besides the Green Lantern Corps existed (or was confirmed to exist) until after the Sinestro Corps came along. |
| 831 | * BlueIsHeroic: Directly contrasting the [[RedIsViolent Red Lanterns]], the Blue Lanterns are extremely heroic and good natured. |
| 832 | * HopeSpringsEternal: The blue light is powered by hope, and the Blue Lantern rings are drawn to those who feel and/or can inspire great hope, such as Saint Walker's faith that the war with the Red Lanterns can be won or [[spoiler:Razer's faith in Aya's survival]]. |
| 833 | * OddlySmallOrganization: The smallest of the Lantern Corps to appear in the series (the Orange Lanterns ''used'' to have more members, but they died off), consisting only of a single Guardian and two Lanterns. {{Justified|Trope}}, as they're also the newest Lantern Corps. [[spoiler:It's strongly implied that Razer ends up becoming a Blue Lantern after the end of the series, bringing the number of Blue Lanterns up to three.]] |
| 834 | * PowerNullifier: Blue Lantern energy can negate Red Lantern powers, though Razer demonstrates that enough UnstoppableRage can overcome this effect, so long as it is a "righteous" rage |

| 844 | |
| 845 | * AdaptationalBadass: Impressively, the show succeeded in making him even ''more'' badass than he was in the comic while retaining all his traditional characteristics. Specifically, he is shown to be a skilled combatant prior to becoming a Blue Lantern. |
| 846 | * AllLovingHero: Even though the Red Lanterns destroyed his home, he greets Razer without a hint of bitterness and tries to sway him from the self-destructive path of a Red Lantern. |
| 847 | * BadassNormal: Able to take on Razer single-handedly (literally; he keeps one hand behind his back during the fight) and unarmed. |
| 848 | * BigDamnHeroes: Pulls one in "Homecoming" along with Mogo to aid Kilowog against the Red Lantern armada. |
| 849 | * {{Determinator}}: Climbs a mountain with his bare hands in search of a savior to battle the Red Lanterns. When he reaches the top, he is seemingly rewarded with nothing, and Mogo doesn't respond to his questions. Instead of giving up, he decides to keep hope and find another way to fight the Red Lanterns, which draws the Blue Lantern of Hope to him. |
| 850 | * EmpoweredBadassNormal: After demonstrating martial arts, he becomes the first Blue Lantern. |
| 851 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Snuck up on Razer, casually talks to him about what the various ships in the ship graveyard were, somewhat somberly states that Razer might [[HeWhoFightsMonsters end up]] like the criminals who commandeered them, and then cheerfully introduces himself. As a Blue Lantern, he shows up like an angel out of nowhere and ''punches'' a Red Lantern warship to disable it. |
| 852 | * FriendToAllLivingThings: Demonstrated by his reappearance in the second half of Season 1 with the giant monster worm. |
| 853 | * GoodShepherd: In the second arc, gives off the air of a monk with his meditation and monastery HQ and helping Razer let go of his anger. |
| 854 | * HopeBringer: His ability to not only feel great hope, but inspire it, is what led the Blue Lantern battery to him. His arrival on the scene in "Homecoming" turns what Kilowog had assumed to be a hopeless last stand into a fighting chance. |
| 855 | * HopeSpringsEternal: Like in the comics, he believes there is always hope, even when his quest for a savior is seemingly rewarded with nothing. The first Blue Lantern power battery is drawn to him for this reason and gives him the first Blue Lantern ring. |
| 856 | * InSeriesNickname: Kilowog calls him "Moon Face." |
| 857 | * ItWasWithYouAllAlong: In search of a savior to turn the tide against the Red Lanterns, Saint Walker discovers that ''he'' is to be that savior. He sees his own reflection in the first Blue Lantern battery. |
| 858 | * TheLawOfDiminishingDefensiveEffort: He enjoys his fight with Razer as if they are out for a walk on a brisk autumn day. |
| 859 | * NamesToTrustImmediately: ''Saint'' Walker, i.e. 'walking saint'. |
| 860 | * NiceGuy: An affable, friendly HopeBringer. |
| 861 | * ProphecyTwist: He came to Mogo because he was told he would find the savior that would defeat the Red Lanterns. Mogo sent him up a mountain, where he found nothing. His refusal to succumb to despair in light of this fact summoned the Blue Lantern battery to him, and reflected on its surface he saw himself, the savior he was looking for. |
| 862 | * TheShrink: |
| 863 | ** Throughout his conversation with Razer, he continually tries to point him along a path not filled with hatred, even turning hostile remarks back on him as self-probing questions. |
| 864 | -->'''Razer:''' You got a problem with me?\ |
| 865 | '''Walker:''' Do ''you'' have a problem with you? |
| 866 | ** He's all but official in "Blue Hope", as he's seen counseling Razer on Odym. |
| 867 | * SourceMusic: In "Blue Hope", he speaks with Razer and plays an instrument construct at the same time. |
| 868 | * TechnicalPacifist: The only attack he makes in his fight against Razer is a [[TheParalyzer paralyzer]] to temporarily disable him. |
| 869 | * VitriolicBestBuds: With Razer. Saint Walker tries his best to help Razer overcome his rage. |

| 876 | The second Blue Lantern, introduced in "Blue Hope". |
| 877 | ---- |
| 878 | * {{Acrofatic}}: He's quite nimble for a big guy. |
| 879 | * FriendToAllLivingThings: He takes after Saint Walker in this regard, as friendship with others is part of part of being a Blue Lantern. |
| 880 | * GentleGiant: He's some kind of humanoid elephant and takes up the Blue Lantern Creed. |
| 881 | * NumberTwo: Second in command of the Blue Lantern Corps (which admittedly, at the time, consisted only of himself and Saint Walker). |

| 884 | !!The Orange Lantern Corps |
| 885 | |
| 886 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 887 | The Orange Lantern Corps were said to be a team of warriors banded together by some unknown despot to stop Atrocitus from extending his reach into Okaara. However, while they did defeat Atrocitus, the entire Corps seemed to have disappeared overnight. Larfleeze is the only member left, and he obsessively guards the Orange Power Battery among mountains of treasure and unused Orange Power Rings. |
| 888 | ---- |
| 889 | * AdaptationDistillation: In the comics, Larfleeze is the only true Orange Lantern due to the nature of the emotion the orange light represents (greed) meaning that no one would be willing to share its power, the rest being living constructs created from the souls/identities of those killed by his power. Here, they appeared to have been warriors strong enough to use the Orange Light without succumbing to it, though it looks as if they all either killed each other or were killed by Larfleeze once the battle against Atrocitus ended. |
| 890 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: In the comics, the Orange Lantern Corps was the last of the differently-colored Lantern Corps to appear prior to the ''ComicBook/BlackestNight'' event, while this continuity has the Orange Lantern Corps join the Red Lantern, Blue Lantern, and Star Sapphire Corps in appearing when Sinestro has yet to be kicked out of the Green Lantern Corps and found his own Corps. |
| 891 | * {{Greed}}: The orange light is fueled by avarice. The original Corps used individuals with a strong sense of duty, though Larfleeze demonstrates that the tactic wasn't entirely successful. |
| 892 | * {{Mayincatec}}: Apparently had this as their aesthetic, down to subtle [[ThePowerOfTheSun solar symbolism]]. |
| 893 | * NeverFoundTheBody: The legend of the Corps is that they all mysteriously disappeared. The piles of orange power rings surrounding their Power Battery indicates that they're all (with the exception of Larfleeze) dead. |

| 900 | --->"LIARS! It's minemineMINE!" |
| 901 | |
| 902 | The only member of the Orange Lantern Corps left, Larfleeze is an unintelligent but extremely greedy and very smelly creature who refuses to release anything in his possession, including the flies that constantly buzz around him. |
| 903 | ---- |
| 904 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: He is easily distracted; just don't touch or mention his battery. |
| 905 | * BerserkButton: Heaven help you if you touch his stuff, especially his battery. He wants his "Shiny," damn it. |
| 906 | -->'''Larfleeze:''' You stole my "Shiny," and now you're gonna pay with your lives! |
| 907 | * CollectorOfTheStrange: He wants ''everything'' and this would include the strange. |
| 908 | * {{Determinator}}: When he's lost his battery, he wants it back. When Hal's using it, he keeps holding on to it even when Hal's flying and beating the others. |
| 909 | * {{Expy}}: There's more than a little [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Gollum]] in this depiction of him. |
| 910 | * {{Greed}}: His defining trait; he will fight to the death to keep the smallest thing he deems as "his". His obscene greed actually gives him the potential to be ''horrifyingly strong'' but also hampers his ability to keep focused on fighting. |
| 911 | ** His greed is best exemplified after he loses of the Orange Battery to Hal Jordan. Larfleeze is utterly desperate to regain the Orange Battery and thus his power, but when Kilowog and Razer offer to return the Battery in exchange for Hal Jordan, Larfleeze doesn't think it's a good enough deal and tries to bargain for extra. |
| 912 | * HairTriggerTemper: Anything can set this guy off; step within his sight and he'll call you a thief. |
| 913 | * HowTheMightyHaveFallen: Once a great warrior capable of standing toe-to-toe with the mighty Atrocitus, Larfleeze is now a disgusting, insane creature utterly possessed by the orange light. |
| 914 | * IAmTheNoun: When Hal accuses him of killing the Orange Lantern Corps, he responds, "I AM the Orange Lantern Corps." In this case, it's true; when Hal was corrupted by the Orange Lantern Battery he and Larfleeze fought each other to be the sole owner. If his power-set reflects the comics, which they very well might due to Glomulus, he's ''not kidding.'' Every "Orange Lantern" in the comics is a sapient construct of someone Larfleeze ''killed'', making Larfleeze quite literally the ''entire Orange Lantern Corps'' in more ways than one. |
| 915 | * ItMustBeMine: The-one-of-a-kind Orange Lantern Battery belongs to him and no one else. |
| 916 | * LargeHam: His greed causes him to be overdramatic. |
| 917 | * NoYou: Razer thinks that negotiating with him is pointless. He snaps "YOU'RE pointless!" |
| 918 | * OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: He and the Orange Lantern Corps fought Atrocitus and his Red Lanterns to a standstill. A painting depicting this shows Larfleeze fighting against Atrocitus himself. |
| 919 | * TheParanoiac: His extended isolation from the galaxy coupled with his extreme proximity to the Orange Battery has left him paranoid that anyone and everyone who enters his home is trying to steal what's his. To his credit, he's somewhat right in that people are coming to his home to take the Orange Battery. They just incorrectly assume the Orange Lanterns are dead and don't realize they're stealing. |
| 920 | * PetTheDog: Played with. He decided that Hal and the others deserved a gift before they left. Bringing out a treasure chest, he began rummaging through it, continually passing onto smaller and smaller pieces of treasure before settling on... one of the flies buzzing around his head, which he then ate. He wished them a safe trip home instead. |
| 921 | * ThePigPen: The heroes note Larfleeze's ripe stench, and he's constantly surrounded by buzzing flies (one of which Larfleeze eats). |
| 922 | * PsychopathicManchild: His "MINE!" shouts sound like a child's temper tantrum. He also throws one via a giant construct proxy after Hal takes his battery while under its avarice-inducing thrall, screaming and howling exactly like a bratty little kid would. |
| 923 | * SanityHasAdvantages: If the painting depicting the Red/Orange Lantern war is accurate, Larfleeze at one time could fight toe to toe with Atrocitus. In his current state, he can barely remain coherent enough to put up a decent fight against Hal and the others. Of course, he could've been ''just'' as crazy during the war with the Red Lanterns and was distracted by Hal stealing his stuff. |
| 924 | * {{Synchronization}}: Though perhaps not to the same extent as the comics, where he's so connected to his battery that his power is essentially limitless; here, he's shown to be able to sense when Hal is taking some of his Orange Lantern rings. |
| 925 | -->'''Larfleeze:''' He's touching my stuff! I can feel it! He's touching, touching, touching my stuff! ''({{Angrish}})'' Stop touching my STUUUUUUUUUUUUUFFFF!!! ''(Barrels off in Hal's direction)'' |
| 926 | * UncleanlinessIsNextToUngodliness: Hal caught his stench before ever meeting the man himself; when they meet him in person, he has a small cloud of flies buzzing around him. |

| 929 | [[folder:Glomulus]] |
| 930 | A giant, multi-limbed Lantern construct that Larfleeze uses to defend his belongings. |
| 931 | ---- |
| 932 | * ExtremeOmnivore: Swallows both Kilowog and Razer whole, at the same time, though they blew up the construct before he could digest them. |
| 933 | * GoodThingYouCanHeal: Since he's a construct, Larfleeze can just make more if one is destroyed, though he was upset that Kilowog and Razer blew one up. |
| 934 | * MesACrowd: Larfleeze can create multiple copies of him. |
| 935 | * MultiArmedAndDangerous: Larfleeze makes these for him. |
| 936 | * TheVoiceless: He doesn't speak in this version. Were it not for Larfleeze naming him, you wouldn't even know he's supposed to be intelligent. |

| 945 | * BadassNormal: A badass without a ring in a universe with many rings. |
| 946 | * BaldOfEvil: The transition in his character arc is moving from "evil bald guy" to "bald good guy". |
| 947 | * CarryABigStick: His primary weapon is a mace. |
| 948 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He questions Iolande's ability to lead and invokes a challenge to become her husband because he believes it's the best thing for his world. When she becomes a Green Lantern and kicks Ragnar's ass, he immediately apologizes for doubting her. |
| 949 | * KickTheDog: When Kilowog appears to die, Kothak writes it off as irrelevant to his and Hal's duel. |
| 950 | * ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Instead of an ArrogantKungFuGuy, he's truly a warrior proud of his strength and concerned for his home. |
| 951 | * RebelLeader: Becomes one when Ragnar and the Red Lanterns take over Betrassus. |
| 952 | * RedHerring: His first appearance sets him up as the apparent villain, being a guy who wants to marry Iolande apparently to seize the throne. It eventually turns out the real villain was [[BitchInSheepsClothing Ragnar]]; He instantly submit to Iolande when she turns out to be to a Green Lantern. |
| 953 | * TookALevelInKindness: He's much nicer in his second apperance. |

| 961 | * {{Cyclops}}: A one-eyed creature. |
| 962 | * LovableCoward: No one can blame him for being squeamish about returning to prison, and he gladly takes up the title of warden after Hal and co. defeat Myglom. |
| 963 | * OnlySaneEmployee: Is apparently this (for a given value of "sane"), as he's quite ready to turn over his job of warden when the ''Interceptor'' crew returns. Considering he's a small, squid-like being in charge of a prison full of dangerous criminals, it's a perfectly reasonable response. |
| 964 | * SanitySlippage: Goggan claims that digging an escape tunnel for 12 years kept him sane. As he says this during a fit of barely coherent ranting, Hal and Kilowog are skeptical of Goggan's sanity. |
| 965 | * ThirdPersonPerson: He pleads with the crew not to take Goggan back to the 'nightmare rock'. |

| 971 | * FalseReassurance: |
| 972 | ** Myglom assures Hal that "nearly 100 percent" of his prisoners never resume a life of crime. An easy boast to make, since most of Myglom's prisoners don't resume ''living'' at all. |
| 973 | ** While hooking Razer up to a torture device, Myglom gently tells him not to worry, as he'll soon be "far, far away"; the machine forces its victims to relive the worst days of their lives. |
| 974 | * FauxAffablyEvil: Very polite to the Green Lanterns when they arrive with prisoners and he's just as polite when they ''are'' his prisoners and he's about to torture them. |
| 975 | * HellholePrison: The warden of one. |
| 976 | * TheJailer: Proud of his jail and its 'rehabilitation program'. |

| 1027 | * SmugSnake: He was very sure that he was the smartest person in the prison. He wasn't. |
| 1028 | * UncertainDoom: Last seen in the custody of a very displeased Atrocitus. Byth apparently gave up the information his captor wanted, but what Atrocitus did with him after that is unknown. |
| 1029 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: Possibly lost it in the same fight that imprisoned him. He doesn't mind. |
| 1030 | * WingedHumanoid: As a Thanagarian. |

| 1036 | |
| 1037 | A supremely powerful being who was created in the Anti-Matter universe. Upon recognizing its superiority to organic life, it went rogue and was sent to another dimension. Now, it has returned to feast on ours. |
| 1038 | ---- |
| 1039 | * AdaptationalWimp: He's taken down by a single synthetic being built by the Green Lantern corps, when in the original continuity he was defeated only by the combined forces of heroes from across TheMultiverse. |
| 1040 | * AIIsACrapshoot: He's an AI invented by Krona in this continuity. Immediately upon being activated he realized his superiority and turned on Krona. [[spoiler:Though it seems, like Aya, he is "alive" to some extent.]] |
| 1041 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Over the Manhunters because his signal controls them. |
| 1042 | * AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: He's as big as Shard. |
| 1043 | * BadassBoast: Gives one upon his first meeting with the heroes, and doles them out like candy in "Cold Fury". |
| 1044 | * BigBadWannabe: He was set up to be the main villain of the second arc, [[spoiler:until Aya snatched the reins from him.]] |
| 1045 | * ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: He agreed to leave the last world in his old universe alone if Duke Nigel sent him to Hal's, but he had already fed on the sun and destabilised it, dooming Nigel's planet to a slow and painful death. [[spoiler:Later, after having the gall to ask Hal and company for help, the Anti-Monitor has no qualms about offering an alliance to Aya when she turns up.]] |
| 1046 | * CranialProcessingUnit: His life-force resides in his head, allowing him to survive decapitation. Unfortunately, all his ''power'' is in his body, which left him quite defenseless against [[spoiler:Aya once she stole it]]. |
| 1047 | * DiscOneFinalBoss: He was all set to kick ass [[spoiler:...until Aya showed up]]. |
| 1048 | * EvilSoundsDeep: As befitting his giant size. |
| 1049 | * EyeScream: Aya destroys his head by [[spoiler:gouging his own fingers into his eye sockets before ripping it in half.]] |
| 1050 | * FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: His head is crushed by [[spoiler:giant thumbs through his eyes]]. |
| 1051 | * GeniusLoci: He installs his head into Ranx after his defeat [[spoiler:at Aya's hands]]. |
| 1052 | * GoneHorriblyRight: Krona created him as the ultimate being, able to do anything. Great job, buddy. |
| 1053 | * GrandTheftMe: Aya blows off his head and ends up [[spoiler:taking over what's left of his body]]. |
| 1054 | * HeroKiller: The heroes have no choice but to run when he shows up, and he even takes a few down. |
| 1055 | ** He very nearly killed Hal in his introduction to the heroes, who was saved because he happened to fall through the dimensional rift the Anti-Monitor used to enter this universe. |
| 1056 | ** He came even closer with [[spoiler:Aya]], who only survived by [[spoiler:{{Body Surf}}ing into a nearby Manhunter]]. In this case, he did it ''unintentionally''; he was busy absorbing the asteroids in the vicinity while the Manhunters did the grunt work, and just happened to hit something while feeding. |
| 1057 | * ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: With [[spoiler:a Green Lantern powered and Aya shaped spear.]] |
| 1058 | * TheJuggernaut: It's really saying something when it takes [[spoiler:Aya, supercharged by absorbing the ''Interceptor's'' entire power supply, ''punching a hole through his chest and blowing his head clean off'' to stop him. His head survives the ordeal.]] |
| 1059 | * KilledOffForReal: He survived Aya's [[spoiler:first attempt to kill him within his disembodied head. She took care of that problem in "Ranx" and thus removed any possibility that he could come back a second time.]] |
| 1060 | * LoopholeAbuse: His deal to spare Thornberry's world in exchange for travel to a different universe is upheld; the world itself was unharmed. Its local star, without which it would freeze, was not part of the deal. |
| 1061 | %%* MightyGlacier: His size makes dodging rather pointless, but he doesn't ''need'' to. |
| 1062 | * NoSell: The ''Interceptor's'' main cannon, fully charged, knocked him on his back. It didn't cause any damage and he was up in seconds. In "Steam Lantern", the titular hero's attempt to combat the Anti-Monitor was so ineffective that the Anti-Monitor either didn't care or didn't notice. He did flinch and protect himself from [[spoiler:Shard's]] cannons and the [[spoiler:Science Director's]] energy attack, but neither did any actual damage and he overpowered them quite quickly. |
| 1063 | * OffWithHisHead: Aya blows it off in "Cold Fury". However, [[spoiler:[[CranialProcessingUnit it still works]] until Aya crushes it in "Ranx".]] |
| 1064 | * OmnicidalManiac: He desires nothing less than the destruction of entire universes to feed himself. He even condemned the last living world in his previous universe to die by destabilising one of its suns after negotiating a deal to leave them alone in exchange for being sent to a new universe. |
| 1065 | * OpinionFlipflop: Not that one can blame him for it, but he calls Hal's team for help in "Ranx", only to immediately turn on them when [[spoiler:Aya shows up and disables them.]] |
| 1066 | * OrcusOnHisThrone: As he notes, he can conquer the entire universe by himself (and has before). Apparently he's too lazy to do that this time, so he's recruited the Manhunters to do it for him. |
| 1067 | * PlanetEater: He eats them and stars to feed himself. |
| 1068 | * SealedEvilInACan: The other universe was meant to be his can. Didn't pan out. |
| 1069 | * TimeTravel: The Science Director mentions that Krona designed him with this ability, though he doesn't make use of it. [[spoiler:Aya takes the time travel device from his head as part of her EvilPlan.]] |
| 1070 | * TouchOfDeath: Understandably, a being made of pure anti-matter is deadly to everything. |
| 1071 | * TractorBeam: He can fire an immobilizing beam from his hands instead of a death ray, should he choose to. |
| 1072 | * WaveMotionGun: His regular hand blasts are enough to qualify, and he can use both to create an even more devastating blast. |

| 1077 | |
| 1078 | The Guardians' first attempt at a universal peacekeeping force, the Manhunters are robotic drones originally intended to destroy evil. However, they came to equate evil with emotion, and decided to eliminate all emotion as a result. They began to attack sectors/planets, and killed countless people. Atrocitus' home sector was eradicated before they were decommissioned, fueling his vendetta against the Guardians. In the present, they are reactivated by the Anti-Monitor to serve as his (and later Aya's) army. |
| 1079 | ---- |
| 1080 | * AIIsACrapshoot: They were programmed to eradicate evil. Evil stems from emotion. Therefore, by their logic, emotion is evil as are all who feel it. |
| 1081 | * ArtificialStupidity: They are prone to monumental tactical errors when forced to focus on more than one task. |
| 1082 | * BadassCreed: "No man escapes the Manhunters". |
| 1083 | * BoomStick: Their primary weapon is a staff-shaped blaster that can be used for long range combat. |
| 1084 | * TheEmpath: Subverted. They can detect emotions, which they are programmed to eradicate, but are otherwise just unfeeling machines. |
| 1085 | * GreaterScopeVillain: They were responsible for the destruction of the Forgotten Zone, inciting Atrocitus to become the monster that he is and setting off the threat for the first half of the series. |
| 1086 | * HerosEvilPredecessor: To the entire Green Lantern Corps. The Manhunters were the Guardians' first attempt at an interplanetary police force, but they proved horrifically ill-suited to the task. They're even powered by the same green energy that empowers the Green Lanterns (which, conveniently, allows a Manhunter head to serve as a substitue for a Power Battery for Hal and Kilowog in a pinch) and are subject to the same power enhancement [=GLs=] get from the Blue Lantern rings. |
| 1087 | * KeystoneArmy: The anti-matter signal used by the Anti-Monitor to revive them also provides them with instruction, and in its absence they shut off. [[spoiler:Killing the Anti-Monitor shuts them all off, but then Aya takes over his body and turns them right back on. On top of that, she used her programming to make them autonomous, forcing her to create a virus to destroy them and herself after she was redeemed.]] |
| 1088 | * MachineMonotone: "No man escapes the manhunters" sounds like a tape wedged into their mouths for all the feeling it has. |
| 1089 | * MadeOfIron: Aside from the literal application, they are extremely tough, enough to shrug off all but the most powerful attacks of a Green Lantern. |
| 1090 | * {{Mooks}}: They are MechaMooks serving the Guardians, then the Anti-Monitor, [[spoiler:then Aya]]. |
| 1091 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: Played with with Aya. The Manhunter she tries to reform believes she's like him, driven by her programming, while Aya believes he has the capacity to evolve. Both are wrong. [[spoiler:At least until "Cold Fury".]] |
| 1092 | * NotSoSimilar: Unlike Aya, the Manhunters have neither the capacity nor the desire to grow beyond what they are. [[spoiler:And unlike her, they are nothing but unfeeling machines, whereas Aya is a living, growing being, capable of love and empathy even when she doesn't want to be.]] |
| 1093 | * OmnicidalManiac: They have determined that emotion is evil, and all those who feel it are evil and must be terminated. |
| 1094 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Ironically, their eyes are actually green beneath the faceplate. |
| 1095 | * VocalDissonance: [[spoiler:Aya's reprogrammed Manhunters speak in her voice.]] |

| 1100 | |
| 1101 | The "Lightspeed Astronomical Navigation Operating System" is a nav-com AI meant to replace Aya after the Science Director decided to decommission her. He is non-sapient and far less intelligent. [[HeroicSacrifice But even he can surprise you.]] |
| 1102 | ---- |
| 1103 | * CaptainObvious: Painfully so at that. Repeatedly staing the ovious is part of what separates him from Aya. |
| 1104 | * DrivesLikeCrazy: When first introduced, his first act is to take off and fly across Oa at top speed while barely missing every building in his path. |
| 1105 | * DissonantSerenity: He's constantly cheerful, even when he really shouldn't be. |
| 1106 | * {{Expy}}: His hyper-cheerful personality brings to mind Eddie, the AI for the ''Heart of Gold'' in ''Film/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy2005''. |
| 1107 | * HeroicSacrifice: After Hal sets the ''Interceptor'' on auto-pilot, [[spoiler:LANOS ultra-warps Aya to parts unknown once Hal has left the ship.]] |
| 1108 | * InSeriesNickname: Hal and Kilowog derisively nickname him "Lame-o." |
| 1109 | * LiteralMinded: Taking everything at face value is just one more thing that makes him an inferior replacement. |
| 1110 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: LANOS is almost completely devoid of his more peppy traits during [[spoiler:his final scene, telling Hal that he'll take it from there and somberly advising him to get clear of the ship before it goes into warp drive. Hal gives a solemn nod in response to reinforce the seriousness of the situation.]] |
| 1111 | * SuckSessor: Hal and Kilowog immediately dislike him for replacing Aya, which isn't helped by the fact that he proves completely incompetent by comparison. |
| 1112 | * WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Hal and Kilowog had no problem exchanging him for Aya to save her from decommissioning. [[spoiler:Hal is noticeably more upset when he tells him to get clear.]] |

| 1120 | ---- |
| 1121 | * TheAtoner: He's done nothing wrong but feels driven by guilt to live up to his hype. |
| 1122 | * CoolShip: An airborne one piloted by his girlfriend, which serves as his base of operations. |
| 1123 | * {{Determinator}}: His first action as a hero was a disaster, but he still carries on. |
| 1124 | * EngineeredPublicConfession: What Duke Nigel makes him do in the end. It backfires; people respect him more for telling the truth. |
| 1125 | * FakeUltimateHero: Though not by choice, and eventually Hal tells him that his fighting against Duke Nigel [[spoiler:makes him a real hero after all]], ultimately going on to make him defy the trope. |
| 1126 | * PoweredArmor: Powered by steam and {{Unobtainium}}. |
| 1127 | * ShoutOut: His name is a reference to Hal Jordan's creators, ''Gil'' Kane and John ''Broome''. |

| 1145 | The villain of Steam Lantern's world. Except it turns out he's not as bad as he appears to be. |
| 1146 | ---- |
| 1147 | * TheAtoner: He didn't mean to create evil mechas, but walking [=TVs=]. He feels a need to make up for it. |
| 1148 | * ComicBookFantasyCasting: He sounds a lot like Creator/TimCurry. |
| 1149 | * DealWithTheDevil: He made a deal with the Anti-Monitor to force it away from his universe and save its inhabitants. Unfortunately, the Anti-Monitor's going into Hal's universe only delayed things, as the sun from Nigel's universe had been destabilized by it already. |
| 1150 | * EvilBrit: Downplayed; in a world where everybody sounds British, it's nothing particularly exceptional. |
| 1151 | * HeelFaceTurn: After realizing he's seen as a villain, he reforms. |
| 1152 | * HeelRealization: He realizes the Anti-Monitor destabilized his planet's sun, meaning all he did was hold off his planet's destruction for a few months while giving the Anti-Monitor a new universe to feed on, and that he really has made things worse for his home planet. |
| 1153 | * MadScientist: Subverted; he was merely misguided. When he realizes that he's seen as a villain, he's more than willing to atone. |
| 1154 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: When he realizes that he became the very thing he didn't want people to see him as and his DealWithTheDevil with the Anti-Monitor just delayed his planet's destruction for a few weeks at the cost of untold numbers of lives in another universe, he is horrified. |
| 1155 | * ShoutOut: His name is a [[WesternAnimation/TheWildThornberrys smashing]] one. |

| 1171 | |
| 1172 | Razer's deceased wife. She longed to start a family with him, but with the ongoing war, she was afraid to. She was reluctant to let Razer join the milita because she believed the world needed more doctors, builders and teachers rather than soldiers, but when Razer says he'll join to protect her, she understands his motivation. |
| 1173 | ---- |
| 1174 | * BothSidesHaveAPoint: She is reluctant to let Razer join the milita because she understandably does not want to raise a family in a war zone, and she's right that more fighting won't help, and about the world needing more doctors, builders and teachers. But from the perspective of Razer, she was his motivation for wanting to join. He did it to protect her, so she lets him join. |
| 1175 | * DeclarationOfProtection: She gets one from Razer, who joined the milita in order to do so. |
| 1176 | * InnocentBlueEyes: This carries over to Aya. |
| 1177 | * KilledOffForReal: By Atrocitus. |
| 1178 | * KilledOffscreen: Razer returns from fighting to find her lying lifeless on the ground. We don't get to know who killed her until Atrocitus tells Razer he killed her to recruit the latter as a Red Lantern. Razer is understandably fuelled with UnstoppableRage. |
| 1179 | * TheLostLenore: To Razer. She's [[spoiler:killed by Atrocitus,]] which fuels his decision to join the Red Lanterns, via manipulation from Atrocitus. |
| 1180 | * NiceGirl: Despite being at odds with her husband about their ideals, she still cared a great deal for him, even lovingly touching his face when he says he'll protect her. |
| 1181 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Aya's design was intentionally based on Ilana's. |
| 1182 | * ShortLivedBigImpact: Her [[spoiler:death]] was what caused Razer to give in to his anger and got him manipulated by her very killer to join the Red Lanterns. |
| 1183 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: Her [[spoiler:death]] happens prior to the events of the series, so she only appeared in flashbacks. |
