History Characters / Corpies

* OddNameOut: He's got four summons: Fire Eagle, Lightning Falcon, Plasma Hawk and a giant stone [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roc_(mythology) roc]] named...[[IncrediblyLamePun Rocsteady]].

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Owen is, above and beyond everything, a hero. He's always ready to drop everything at a moment's notice in order to help someone in need, even if that someone is a person he doesn't like. He's generous, usually willing to give people a second chance, and when all is said and done he cares a lot more about saving lives than he does about his personal image and comfort. But for all that... he's ''still'' a bit of a jerk. He's extremely arrogant and often takes his own superiority for granted, he jumps to conclusions about people and treats them with disdain based on those conclusions. Often he's downright condescending to people he views as "lesser." And he has a ton of prejudices that he isn't even aware of. Part of his CharacterDevelopment is to recognize and overome these flaws in himself.

* FashionModel: Her role as a PEER is partly treated as this, as several of her sponsors are makeup and fashion brands. She does photo shoots and modeling, and is essentially always "on camera" -- even stopping to pose in the middle of clearing out debris. Not out of vanity but because part of her ''job'' is to never let anyone get an unflattering photo of her.

* HeelRealization: He goes through two notable ones. The first, and most dramatic one, he goes through before the book starts, after he's been thoroughly called out by Roy for his decision to not only leave his family but quit the hero business entirely after the afore-mentioned scandal. The second one is a little more gradual and subtle: he starts out thinking of the "Corpies" as lesser heroes, who don't have what it takes to become ''actual'' heroes, who spend their time playacting, and who don't deserve much respect. As the story goes on and he gets to actually know his teammates and other PEERS (as well as getting a few TheReasonYouSuck speeches), he comes to realize just how unfair he's been to them, and begins taking them much more seriously.
