4	!! Stephen Jameson
5	->'''Portrayed by:''' Creator/RobbieAmell
6
7	* TheChosenOne: Stephen inherited his father's advanced powers and has taken up his fight to protect the Tomorrow People against Ultra. He even gets tagged with this appelation.
8	* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Stephen can't resist the impulse to help someone in need.
9	* DisappearedDad: Stephen's father, Roger Price, ran out on the family when Stephen was very young. Stephen thought it was due to his mental illness but it was really to protect his family from Roger's fight against Ultra.
10	* TheMole: Infiltrates Ultra for the Tomorrow People.
11	* MrFanservice
12	* NaiveNewcomer: Stephen constantly expects people around him to act with basic human decency and is constantly disappointed. Pretty much a given since he's torn between a genocidal secret paramilitary organization and the underground resistance group that's fighting them.
13	* NiceGuy
14	* Revenge: After his father dies he basically decides to kill the Founder. [[spoiler:He tosses his ass into a wormhole created by the Machine.]]
15	* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: He's rather fond of this.
16	* TimeMaster: He has the rare power of manipulating time.
17	** TimeStandsStill: He can freeze time for everyone but HS.
18	** ResetButton: [[spoiler:After absorbing Roger's powers he can turn it back too.]]
19	* WideEyedIdealist: In contrast to John's [[KnightInSourArmor jaded heroics]].
20
21	!!John Young
22	->'''Portrayed by:''' Creator/LukeMitchell
23
24	* AbusiveParents: His biological parents are nowhere to be seen, and his foster father pulled a knife on him for having the audacity to demand he feed him and the other children in the home.
25	* TheAtoner: [[spoiler:He wants to make it up to Stephen and the Tomorrow People, in particular the fact that he thinks he killed Roger Price. Later, after Roger is revived, he even lets Roger win the "jaunt", and Cara observes he feels he deserves to get beaten up for what he did.]]
26	* BigBrotherMentor: After a shaky initial relationship, he becomes sort of this to Stephen.
27	* BrokenBird: Even though he does his best to hide it.
28	* BroughtDownToNormal: Lost his powers by the Founder.
29	** DiscardAndDraw: [[spoiler:Jedikiah gives him Roger's power.]]
30	* TheChainsOfCommanding: Is initially against any sort of intervention "topside", or any interaction with the humans, which puts him at odds with the rest who are more sentimental.
31	* TheChosenOne: Was this for Jedikiah. [[spoiler:He needed someone who was capable of killing the Founder.]]
32	* ColdSniper: Plays one in the first season finale.
33	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Orphaned, abusive foster father, Ultra recruiting him and getting his only friend KilledToUpholdTheMasquerade, using him as a test subject, [[spoiler:making him kill one of his father figures.]] It's a TraumaCongaLine.
34	* DarkSecret: The fact that he can kill other people. [[spoiler:And also that he was ordered by Jedikiah to execute Roger Price. The secret comes out and he's voted out of his position as leader.]]
35	* KnightInSourArmor: In a contrast to Stephen's wide-eyed idealism.
36	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: In the first season finale [[spoiler:Jedikiah tampers with his mind so he doesn't remember Cara or the rest.]]
37	* TheLeader: He led the Tomorrow People, [[spoiler:until he was voted out of the position.]]
38	** TheLancer: [[spoiler:Once Cara took the position their roles reversed.]]
39	* MrFanservice
40	* OlderThanTheyLook: He looks very young, but was already a reasonably grown kid — looking like he's about ten to thirteen — in flashbacks set fifteen years ago.
41	* PapaWolf: Fiercely protective of the people under his charge.
42	* TakeCareOfTheKids: A dying Roger asked John to find and take care of Stephen. Years before this, he mentioned to John that he had a kid younger than him, and there would be a time when he would need John to look after him.
43	* ThouShaltNotKill: Despite being one of the only Tomorrow People capable of murder, he hasn't killed that many. One, as a child, prompting him to run way from Ultra, and the next is Killian [=McCrane=], another murderous Tomorrow Person who has gone on several rampages. He kills at least one Ultra agent when they ambush the Tomorrow People and [[spoiler: accidentally kills Cassie when she is hit by a bullet he fired at the Founder. He was also forced to [[ThanatosGambit (seemingly)]] kill Stephen's father, and this is what made him leave Ultra.]]
44	* TookALevelInKindness: He's initially aloof and somewhat unfriendly, especially when it comes to Stephen. He changes and starts to warm up little by little, to the point of becoming somewhat of a BigBrotherMentor to Stephen.
45	* TraumaCongaLine: See DarkAndTroubledPast above.
46	* TroubledButCute
47	* UsedToBeASweetKid: Before the series of events that turned him bitter.

51
52	* ActionGirl: She challenges her boyfriend to a fight in order to conclude an argument. And she wins.
53	* AttemptedRape: Back in high school, a boy takes her out in his car to a deserted park. It does not go well for him, or for her. [[spoiler:She accidentally killed the son of a very well-connected man in the town, so she had to run away from home at her father's behest.]]
54	* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:Shot and killed by Natalie. Stephen rewound time to bring her back.]]
55	* BadassLongcoat: A trench coat, but occasionally.
56	* BreakTheCutie: Her life since becoming an HS has not been all too pleasant.
57	* TheChainsOfCommanding: [[spoiler:After taking John's place as TheLeader, she's been pushed into making some hard choices.]]
58	* CuteMute: She was deaf up until her powers manifested.

63	* TookALevelInJerkass: [[spoiler:After taking John's place she's violated Stephen's mind without permission, kicked John out, and even hired an assassin to kill Jedikiah while risking Stephen.]]

70	* BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler:"Sitting Ducks" was not kind to her.]]
71	* GirlNextDoor

74	* MuggleBestFriend: To Stephen initially though she's grown closer to the other Tomorrow People, especially John.
75	** PairTheSpares:[[spoiler:Eventually they hook up.]]
76	* PatientChildhoodLoveInterest
77	* TokenBlackFriend: She gave up all her other friends to remain with Stephen, so it seems her life revolves around him.

81	[[folder:Ultra]]
82	!!Jedikiah Price
83	->'''Portrayed by:''' Creator/MarkPellegrino
84
85	* BigBad: Seems to be this at first. This is put in doubt by the introduction of the Founder and Jedikiah's crescent ambiguousness.[[spoiler: By the finale though, with the Founder out of the picture and Jedikiah back creating his private army of telepaths, he definitely seems to be in this position again.]]
86	* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Honestly loved his Little Brother and Morgan. [[spoiler:He also loved John like a son.]] He does try to kill all of them at one time or another though, so it apparently only goes so far.
87	* EvilutionaryBiologist: Inverted. He's a geneticist and he's definitely evil but he's devoted to helping Homo Sapiens humans come out on top against Homo Superior.
88	* KillTheOnesYouLove: Jedikiah had to shoot his brother to stop the machine. [[spoiler:And it was for nothing.]]
89	* SecretRelationship: [[spoiler:Jedikiah is in one with a HS called Morgan.]]
90	* SuperhumanTransfusion: [[spoiler:He eventually manages to gain HS powers via transplant.]]
91	** HourOfPower: [[spoiler:But his body rejected it at the last minute.]]
92	* VillainHasAPoint: Jedikiah obviously has some FantasticRacism issues, but he is correct about the problems that would arise from teenagers and young adults spontaneously manifesting super-powers. [[spoiler: Ironically, when Jedikiah briefly gains powers he pretty much does what he was afraid HS would do, turning him into something of a StrawHypocrite.]]
93	* WellIntentionedExtremist: Jedikiah does some horrible things to Homo Superiors and humans alike but he honestly thinks it's all in service to the continuation of Homo Sapiens as a species.
94
95	!! The Founder [[spoiler: (Hugh Bathory)]]
96	->'''Portrayed by:''' Creator/SimonMerrells
97
98	* BigBad: Jedikiah's superior at Ultra, and possibly the most powerful HS around.
99	* NoNameGiven: During his first appearances. It's only in his fifth appearance that his name is revealed as [[spoiler: Mr. Bathory.]]
100	* TheVoice: In his first appearance, he communicates telepathically to Stephen, never appearing onscreen.
