I am not cleaning that up...oh, who am I kidding.

Ironeye

Am I missing anything?

Description Goes Here
  • Absent-Minded Professor: Ironeye is a mild case (milder on the genius than on the absent-mindedness). There is evidence to suggest that he would have become a literal example of this had the Convergence not happened.
  • Affably Evil
  • American Accents: A California accent
  • An Ice Person: Strictly speaking, he only extracts heat, but freezing things is still on the menu
  • The Atoner: His fate at the end of the story.
  • Big Brother Instinct: Towards the (eventually 3) immature members of the team and to his younger brother in the backstory
  • Big Brother Mentor: To Hikari
  • Big Eater: Not a particularly extreme case
  • Black and Gray Morality: How he views the world.
  • Broken Pedestal: To Hikari
  • Catch Phrase: "Good to know."
  • Character Tics: Gesturing with his hands whenever he delivers exposition (whether aloud or internally)
  • The Chessmaster: In the final season, as a matter of necessity—he wants to help his friends, but he's too scared of the villains to do it openly.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: He's fairly sensible so long as he can be kept focused—just don't let him steer the conversation.
  • Conflicting Loyalty: Order, knowledge, the team (especially Kara, Hikari, and Matrix—in that order), or his family—which one comes first?
  • Contemplate Our Navels: Thankfully, his musings actually matter—they explain why he does what he does in the later seasons.
  • Dead Little Brother: Ironeye's brother dies despite Kara's attempts to heal him; subverted when despite initial indication of the contrary, he takes it pretty well.
  • Depraved Homosexual: It's just an act.
  • Dirty Business: Pick a major decision he makes. He regrets making the choice he did, but it's not always clear there was a better option.
  • Ditzy Genius: Though quite book smart and decent in a fight, his social repertoire consists of act friendly, hoping they do the same and snark, and he's generally not grounded enough to be even competent as a leader.
  • Double Agent: Repeatedly
  • Emotions vs. Stoicism: One of Ironeye's core internal conflicts; he ends up doing questionable things whenever one side dominates his thinking.
  • Evil Tastes Good: It's mostly an act, but the bit of him that actually enjoys the evil scares him.
  • Failure Knight: Why is he so devoted to Hikari? It just might have something to do with being unable to save his younger brother.
  • For Science!: When it comes to dangerous Empowered, interrogation always comes before even considering execution—there's no point killing someone unless we learn from the experience.
  • Go Out with a Smile: Subverted, since he doesn't end up dying.
  • The Hedonist: As part of his villainous persona.
  • Heel Face Revolving Door: He's ambiguously a Face for the first half, switches to a Heel in Season 6, switches back to a Face early in Season 7, goes (ambiguously) Heel again later in the season, solidifies his Heel status in the finale, and finally turns Face in the finale.
  • Heroic BSOD: Upon finding out that he caused Hikari to give in to his demon, ironically when he is one of the antagonists.
  • Heroic Spirit: Once he finds something he's willing to die for, he can't be kept down.
  • I Did What I Had to Do: Repeatedly, no matter who he's working with and what is motivating his actions.
  • I Owe You My Life: To Kara, of course, due to her healing him in the aftermath of the Convergence. It's the only reason he hasn't already left the team, and why much of his evil is justified (however poorly) by doing what is best for her.
  • Knight in Sour Armor: His true face
  • Kung-Fu Wizard
  • Leaning On The Furniture
  • Madden Into Misanthropy: Him thinking that he is powerless to save Kara doesn't help anyone.
  • Morality Pet: Hikari and Kara
  • Mr. Exposition
  • My Greatest Failure: Nice job breaking your friend's spirit and inadvertently causing him to give in to the Omnicidal Maniac demon that's been possessing him, Ironeye.
  • Nice Guy: Though he's not as grounded as he could be, he is the first character (other than the cheerfully scatterbrained Matrix, of course) to be nice to Hikari, and his reasons for disliking Cody and Murky are understandable from his perspective: Cody mistreats Matrix (and later Hikari), and he's intimidated by Murky. Despite being genuinely nice to most people, he's actually the nastiest of the bunch and has cut himself off from everyone else to varying degrees.
  • Noble Demon
  • Number Two: He ends up getting demoted once the team joins TV Tropes, though.
  • Obfuscating Insanity: How better to fit in with unstable villains than by playing their game?
  • The Philosopher: His monologues about morality and fate are essential to understanding why his behavior tends to be rather inconsistent.
  • Playing with Fire: Strictly speaking, he can only transmit heat, but if something tends to be flammable...
  • Poisonous Friend: To Kara
  • Power Incontinence: Ironeye can't help but using his power when he feels anger or hate
  • Psychoactive Powers: Siphoning heat requires anger; transmitting heat requires hate
  • Psychotic Smirk
  • Stepford Smiler: To conceal his tendency to be a Poisonous Friend Noble Demon who knows?
  • Straight Gay
  • Subordinate Excuse: The reason why he's on the team to begin with.
  • Sweet Tooth: Sugar!
  • Tin Man: He seems to have no settings other than cheerful, forced rage, and forced hate, but the other emotions are still there—he's just out of touch with them.
  • To the Pain: Ironeye likes talking about how he'll torture people more than actual torture; real torture involves pain, blood, screaming, and potentially stupid mistakes that get people permanently harmed.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: In response to being unable to help Kara after her breakdown.
  • Villainous Breakdown
  • Weak, but Skilled: In melee combat
  • What Is Evil?
  • Wild Card: He eventually decides to play his own game. You may or may not be a piece worth saving.
  • Verbal Tic: "Yeah..."

Cody

Nice going, genius. You screwed up again.

Hikari no Kaze

No... I won't let anyone else die!

Description Goes Here

Korgmeister

It helps to be open minded about what constitutes a win condition.

Part of the Mission Control team. On loan from the Australian government and fresh out of spy school. He brings to the table a newly acquired talent for determining the hidden flaw and weakness in people and everything they create. Absolutely useless in any sort of direct confrontation, he works as a force multiplier by assisting combatants to use their force with deadly precision.
