Other Villains

Parasite (Rudolph "Rudy" Jones)

Once a janitor at S.T.A.R. Labs, exposure to radiation gave him the ability to absorb power upon touch. His absorption abilities have been evolving over time.

---

• Achilles' Heel: He gains the weaknesses of those whose powers he copies, usually with greater effect than the originals.
• Bald of Evil: Lost all of his hair upon gaining his powers.
• Energy Absorption: This is how he copies abilities. Otherwise he wouldn't be known as a parasite.
• From Nobody to Nightmare: Janitor to deadly, sadistic supervillain.
• Horror Hunger: His hunger leads him to desperation and starvation.
• Logical Weakness:
  • Taking Superman's powers means he also gains his weaknesses, creating one of the few times kryptonite is actually helpful to Superman.
  • It's not just Superman's weakness. For example, if he absorbs Martian Manhunter's power, he'll gain his weakness to fire as well.
• Power Copying: Can copy abilities by touching someone, although he also copies their weaknesses.
• Power Parasite: Absorbs the powers of anyone he touches.
• Related in the Adaptation: He's the uncle of Don Jones, who would become the mutant warthog Bebop.
• Secondary Color Nemesis: His skin is purple and his energy absorption is colored green.

• Calling Your Attacks: He has to say the name of whatever Justice League member whose powers it has copied before it can use them.
• Composite Character: His appearance is based on his Young Justice incarnation.
• The Dragon: To Professor Ivo.
• Implacable Man: He's really hard to stop, and he never slows down until he completes his objective.
• Power Copying: Can copy the powers of any superhuman being in his vicinity, and can copy multiple powers at once.
• Red Eyes, Take Warning: It has glowing red eyes. Robot and all that.

Metallo (John Corben)

^{Click for his Human Brain} 

He is an invulnerable cyborg with superhuman strength who uses his Kryptonite power source against Superman, therefore, making him a dangerous foe.

---

• Attack Its Weak Point: Disabling his Kryptonite core is usually the only way to stop him.
• Brain in a Jar: His Arkham Asylum mugshot shows his living human brain in a container.
• Chest Blaster: His most consistent weapon is his ability to project rays from his Green Kryptonite heart.
• Full-Conversion Cyborg: All that's left of his original body is his brain, encased in a metallic exoskeleton powered by Kryptonite.
• Healing Factor: His robotic bodies sometimes include a self-repair function that causes him to stitch himself back together.
• Heart Light: His heart always glows green from the Kryptonite.
• Hollywood Cyborg: A living brain powered by a Kryptonite heart, encased in a steel body, and in turn encased in vat-grown flesh? It doesn't get much more Hollywood than that.
• Implacable Man: Is sometimes played this way, with his nigh-indestructible body, and ability to weaken Superman making him virtually impossible to stop. He'll just keep on advancing, no matter what Superman (or anybody else) throws at him.
• Man of Kryptonite: Metallo's Green K heart does bad things to Kryptonians, and he's often able to project its energies in the form of Eye Beams and other weapons.
• Nigh-Invulnerability: His robotic body makes him difficult to kill.
• Secondary Color Nemesis: His armor has green highlights due to Green Kryptonite.
• Skull for a Head: His mechanical head always resembles a skull.
• We Can Rebuild Him: Who rebuilt him and why varies, but this is always the source of Metallo's augmentation.

Mr. Mxyzptlk

Mr. Mxyzptlk is a fifth-dimensional imp with the power to do almost anything he can imagine.

---

• Alien Geometries: His power is derived from the fact that he's five-dimensional compared to mere three-dimensional beings.
• Badass Fingersnap: He sometimes uses finger-snaps to initiate his reality distortion.
• Beware the Silly Ones: 99% of the time, Mr. Mxyzptlk just wants to use his awesome Reality Warper powers to play harmless practical jokes and be a funny pest. He's a cartoonish man-child through and through, but his power is unbelievable and he could wipe out all of reality with a fart or a sneeze if he felt like it.
• Breaking the Fourth Wall: Mxyzptlk is also able to do this. As his portrait shows fingersnapping the DC Comics logo from 2016, the E27 Logo and artist Phil Cho's autograph signature.
• Court Jester: Was a court jester in his home dimension.
• Dimensional Traveler: One of the many inhabitants of the Fifth Dimension.
• Great Gazoo: An imp from the fifth dimension.

• Pint-Sized Powerhouse: He's an imp even smaller than Bat-Mite, yet he possesses unfathomable power in the Third Dimension.
• Pointy Ears: Comes with being an imp of sorts.
• Reality Warper: Mxyzptlk possesses an unlimited ability to warp reality within the third dimension in any way he can imagine. His powers have been described alternatively as the product of fifth-dimensional magic or advanced technology from the fifth dimension that appears to be magical to third-dimensional beings. Attendant with his abilities is the fact that Mxyzptlk himself is not limited by physical laws: he needs no sustenance such as air or water, can exist in any environment (whether the bottom of the sea or in outer space) and is not vulnerable to any kind of real physical harm.
• Secondary Color Nemesis: Dresses in purple and orange.
• Story-Breaker Power: Easily the most powerful member of Superman's Rogue's Gallery, with the only reason he doesn't defeat Superman outright is because he willingly restrains himself.
• Ugly Guy, Hot Wife: He's an imp while his betrothed is very human-looking and quite hot.
• The Unpronounceable: Oh, that array of consonants makes discussion/spelling hard. It usually goes from "Mix-pih-tulk" to Mix-yez-pitl-ick". Backwards, it's easier to say ("Kel-tip-zex-im.").
• Weaksauce Weakness: His only apparent vulnerability is that whenever he speaks his name backwards, he is shunted back to the fifth dimension, and all effects of his "magic" vanish, making everything as it was before he appeared. This is a temporary deterrent: after ninety days, he can again visit the third dimension at will.

Tobias Whale

The leader of the 100, Tobias Whale and his minions have fought the Outsiders. He is the archenemy of Black Lightning.

---

• Arch-Enemy: By far the most well known enemy of Jefferson Pierce and certainly the most personal.

• Badass Normal: Whale has no superpowers, but his bulk and brilliant criminal intellect still make him Black Lightning's worst enemy and a force to be reckoned within the Metropolis underworld.

• Bald of Evil: Completely bald and a major threat towards Black Lightning and his family.
• The Don: Of the Metropolis branch of The 100, one of DC's largest criminal gangs.
• Fat Bastard: Whale is built like the proverbial brick outhouse, tipping the scales at a morbidly obese four hundred pounds.

• Would Hurt a Child: He clearly has no compunction trying to kill Jennifer Pierce for interfering with his plans.

Veronica Cale

Self-made millionaire and former member of S.T.A.R. Labs, Veronica Cale resents the adulation that follows Wonder Woman everywhere and believes that as a woman who fought for everything she's acquired, she deserves it far more than a Amazon born with divine abilities.

---

• Anti-Villain: She tends to help out the heroes occasionally.
• Corrupt Corporate Executive: Heads up a major company and uses her money to flagrantly violate the law.
• Driven by Envy: Much as Luthor wants to be Superman, so too does Cale want to be Wonder Woman, claiming that if a Wonder Woman exists, it has to be her, and not Diana.
• Evil Genius: She certainly fancies herself one. In reality while Cale is very smart, she's not really cut out for supervillainy.
• Freudian Excuse: Grew up as poor white trash, with a stripper mom and a deadbeat father. She clawed her way to success, while building a massive Inferiority Superiority Complex along the way.
• It's All About Me: Veronica is willing to try killing one of the world's greatest superheroes, endangering thousands in the process, just to make sure that the media talk about her when they think of powerful women.
• Manipulative Bastard: Very good at manipulating employees and the press. When it comes to supervillains, her record gets a lot weaker.
• Omnidisciplinary Scientist: Notably averted. She's a brilliant scientist and businesswoman, but she lacks the ingenuity and natural ability to create complex devices like Mad Scientist types such as Lex Luthor and has to rely on buying or manipulating others to do the work for her.
• Rags to Riches: From the daughter of a prostitute to one of the richest women in the world.
• The Resenter: Believes herself to be a far better female role model than Wonder Woman is, and deeply resents Diana for being the one that women the world over idolize.
• Smarter Than You Look: The cleavage-barring shirts, blonde dye job, Texan accent and gaudy bead jewelry do well to disguise the ambitious and manipulative woman Cale is. Of course, she's not as smart as she thinks she is.

• Stealth Expert: Even without the suit, she's so good at infiltration and being unseen she might as well be a ghost.

• Alternate Self: She's the Emily Page-Parker from the original reality before the Soft Reboot changed the universe and she was replaced by Rose Walker.
• Ambiguously Human: Since she comes from another reality, it's not clear if she's human or member of a species of Human Aliens, similarly to the comics. At least at first.
• Charm Person: Sarya has a passive ability to affect the emotions of others. Those most affected by this are those who remain in her proximity for the longest time and/or bond with her on some intimate level. This effect erodes other's 'resistance' to Sarya's assertions and actions, allowing her to "get away" with more problematic behavior.
• Composite Character: Not only she's an alternate of Rose Walker/Em Parker, she's a combination of all known Emerald Empresses; Sarya, Cera Kesh, Falyce and Ingria Olav. Her outfit seems based on her Justice League Unlimited incarnation.
• Curtains Match the Windows: Unsurprisingly she has green eyes complimented by green hair.
• Depraved Bisexual: She swings both ways and once used her powers to blast Power Girl's outfit and check her out.
• Driven by Envy: Sarya is a literal green-eyed monster. She is jealous of Rose Walker. She wishes to restore herself being the core Esoteric Match

• God Save Us from the Queen!: She calls herself Emerald Empress, and she's one of the biggest foes of the Advena Legion.
• Green and Mean: Her color is always green and she's one of the few villainous Ems.

• In-Series Nickname: She's been nicknamed Double-E, Em-Squared and Greensleeves.
• The Leader: She leads the Fatal Five like in other adaptations.
• The Mentally Disturbed: She's not the most mentally stable person around.
• Of Corsets Sexy: Her outfit seems to be an armored corset over a Leotard of Power.
• Polyamory: She's married to both Tharok and Persuader. She also has a harem.
• Power Perversion Potential: She used EKRON to blast Power Girl's outfit and "compromised" her, seemingly just so she could ogle her. One of her weaknesses is her Lust.
• Promoted to Love Interest: In the comics Emerald Empress, Tharok and Persuader were just teammates, but here all three of them are married due to being very different people.
• Related in the Adaptation: She's the mother of Cole Parker, the second Persuader in the comics.
• Rogues' Gallery Transplant: Emerald Empress is well known as a foe of the Legion of Super-Heroes, and while she's indeed an enemy of their equivalent the Advena Legion, she has also battled Power Girl. That said, Supergirl was member of the LOSH for a time and Emerald Empress has recently been considered a candidate for Supergirl's Arch-Enemy.
• Secondary Color Nemesis: Green. She dresses in green and her eyes and hair are green.
• Super-Toughness: Sarya's resilience is extremely high, allowing her to take numerous blows of internal or external assaults before succumbing to the effects.
• Team Killer: She killed many of the members of the original Cadre when she turned on the Anti-Monitor.
• Teleportation: Sarya is able to create folds in the fabric of space in open doorways. When she steps through, she steps into the 'Emerald Eyrie', a pocket dimension located outside normal time and space, which looks like a high-tech observation station. When Sarya leaves the Eyrie, she can return to any doorway she has marked prior or any in close proximity to where others are currently discussing her.

• Politically Incorrect Villain: He is an anti-Semitic, homophobic, white supremacist responsible for exterminating these groups along with metahumans from Great Britain.

• Meaningful Rename: At the suggestion of his daughter, Mr. Nobody changed the group's name from Dada to Nada.
• Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: Even more so than the original Brotherhood. A chthonic-fused son of a witch, a man that's part animal, mineral and vegetable, a Mad Scientist that turned into a botfly hybrid, a living porcelain figure, a girl that's super strong and fast, but only when asleep, a woman with no arms but two floating gloves, a girl that is good at everything and a woman whose consciousness was transferred to a brutalist sculpture.

Mr. Nobody (Eric Morden)

^{Click for Eric Morden} 

• Actor Allusion: Being former friends with Greg Saunders references Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion both starring in Firefly.

• Appropriated Appelation: Back in WWII when he introduced himself after his (colorful) companions, he just said he was a nobody.
• Cloudcuckoolander: Eric is weird, He often will do things for no clear or discernible reason. He has had his enemies defeated and on the verge of death, only to decide to spare them so they can "have fun" another day. He often talks about a "script" and will either adhere to this script with zealous fervor or claim to be going "off-script" to do something he feels is more exciting, dramatic, or fun.
• Dimensional Traveler: Eric can remove himself and others in his proximity from their current dimension to another of Eric's choosing, usually Germelshausen or the Theater Cosmic. Eric has even shown the ability to relocate himself into many dimensions and locations which he should not have access to enter such as the Rock of Eternity or the Light at the End. He claims to have even gained access to an esoteric haven known as the Writer's Room where he beheld the Tapestry.

• Old Friend: Of all his former acquaintances, he still considers Malcolm Merlyn his old friend.
• Pride: Though he calls himself Mr. Nobody, Eric believes he is somebody of true significance. Insults to his pride often aggravate him. He is also prone to proving his superiority with grandiose monologues and overly complex schemes.
• Reality Warper: Eric can use his chthonic powers to alter reality in many ways. He can drain the sanity from others, suspend the laws of physics, transform a small locale of reality into an abstract concept, and can even create complex lifeforms, such as when he used this power to create his daughter Teresa Morden.
• Related in the Adaptation: His mother is Rowena MacLeod, making him half-brother of Crowley, uncle of Charaxes, considers Carabosse his former mother in-law and sort of foster brother in-law of the Baba Yaga.

• Unholy Matrimony: With Tsaritsa the Queen of Fables, although currently they're married but separated.
• Weaksauce Weakness: As Eric's physiology is saturated with chthonic energy, any exposure to vorpal energy weakens him. Vorpal entities of significance, such as an Endless or the Monitor, could theoretically strip him of his power or even "unmake" him.
• We Used to Be Friends: With Greg Saunders all the way back to WWII. He also used to be friends with Ystina, Eve Frankenstein, Yon Kohl and Bigby Wolf. He also used to be lovers and partners in crime with The Brain, until they had a fallout and expelled him from his own group.
