[[caption-width-right:350:From left to right : Starfire, Robin, Beast Boy, Terra, Raven, Cyborg]]

* AgeLift: Their looks are younger/older than their comic incarnations were in the adapted arcs. In the comics, Robin was already in college when he met Starfire. Everyone but Beast Boy (who was roughly 15 to 18) were on the very late side of being a teenager.
* ArcHero: All of the Titans, sans Starfire, take turns being this for a season.
** Robin for Season One, where the story is focused on his battle with Slade and foiling the mysterious mastermind.
** Terra for Season Two, where she's the central character being the newbie on the Titans and eventually revealed to be [[spoiler:a SixthRangerTraitor]].
** Cyborg for Season Three, where the main plot is him going up against Brother Blood and the HIVE Academy.
** Raven for Season Four, with the overall story arc being the prophesy of Trigon entering the mortal realm using her as a portal.
** Beast Boy for Season Five, where his past of being in the Doom Patrol and their enemies the Brotherhood of Evil takes center stage.
* BadassCrew: They're still teens but olders, but can make villainous grown men cry.
* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: Starfire, Raven & Terra respectively
* BigThinShortTrio: The male Titans - Cyborg, Robin, and Beast Boy are this respectively.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: Terra, Raven & Starfire in respective order.
* TheBusCameBack: After 12 years since their final appearance, this version of the Teen Titans makes a surprise reappearance in the direct to video movie, ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGoVsTeenTitans'', a crossover with ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo''.
* TheCameo: [[spoiler:This incarnation of the Titans makes a surprise appearance in TheStinger of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGoToTheMovies'', stating they've "found a way back".]]
* ColorCodedCharacters: Robin - Red. Cyborg - Blue. Beast Boy - Green. Raven - Purple. Starfire - Orange. Terra - Yellow to complete the 6 primary and secondary colors for the brief time she was on the team.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: The boys all predominantly use melee combat, with Robin having some thrown projectiles and Cyborg having his sonic cannon. The girls all typically attack using ranged abilities, with Starfire having a bit of melee as well.
* IBelieveICanFly: While Cyborg and Robin typically can't fly, Cyborg has some form of rocket-propulsion that he just [[ForgotICouldFly doesn't usually use]] and Robin has rocket boots and his cape turns into a pair of wings. [[ForgotICouldFly and he doesn't use them either]].
* MinorLivingAlone: All of the Teen Titans live without parental supervision in their island headquarters and they fight crime. [[JustifiedTrope There's a reason for this]]: two of them are orphans, one of them is a runaway, while another two have parents residing somewhere other than Earth. Cyborg is the only one who can readily access his father. Presumably the "super hero" thing credits them with responsibility to do this.
* MoralityChain: The rest of the Titans in general ground Robin, especially Starfire.
* PhysicalMysticalTechnological:
** Robin is the Physical as he relies on his martial arts.
** Raven is the Mystical as she knows socery.
** Cyborg is the Technological as he is half machine and can build gadgets for himself and others.
* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The team consists of a CircusBrat and former sidekick of a [[AntiHero violent vigilante]], a half-man/half-machine, a sorceress with demon heritage, a green-skinned changeling, an alien princess and a earth-controlling runaway princess.
* TheTeam: Beast Boy and Starfire are the easiest to distill to a single archetype. Cyborg and Raven are the hardest. The fact that they can all wear multiple hats easily makes it impossible to shoe horn them into a neat FiveManBand.
** Robin is TheLeader; he is the one saying "TITANS, GO!" and plotting their objectives. Although he can double as either a more SupportingLeader or fall to TheLancer when someone else's ArchEnemy takes the limelight.
** Cyborg is usually TheLancer, [[RedOniBlueOni Laid back when Robin is serious, serious when Robin is extreme]], [[NumberTwo takes over when Robin is absent]]. He's also a GadgeteerGenius GeniusBruiser BigGuy and SmartGuy.
** Beast Boy is the PluckyComicRelief going as far as to lampshade it, most likely to "Turn into a big animal" and thus can be TheBigGuy.
** Raven is a LadyOfBlackMagic, she's the most introspective and [[BadassBookworm Book]] [[TheSmartGal Smart Gal]]. She can be TheLancer too since her dark attitude makes her a {{foil}} to the rest of the team's optimism and wacky antics.
** Starfire is TheChick whose primary roles are Robin's love interest, a GirlyGirl foil to Raven, and the [[TheHeart caring one that everyone on the team gets along with]] and [[NaiveNewcomer helps to understand human culture]]. She also adopts TeamPet Silkie, a mutant silkworm, yet is technically the physically strongest Titan and a {{Proud Warrior Race G|uy}}irl BigGirl.
** Terra joins as a SixthRanger with a similar skill set to Raven. It's hard to pin down how she works in the team because [[spoiler: soon enough she's a SixthRangerTraitor]].
* ThouShaltNotKill
* TrueCompanions: {{Downplayed|Trope}} at first and then later played straight with CharacterDevelopment. They actually have a ''lot'' of internal strife early on, but their bond ultimately sees them through it all and they all grow much closer to each other as the show goes on.
* TwoGirlsToATeam: Starfire and Raven. It's more of a RedOniBlueOni dynamic than a straight up TomboyAndGirlyGirl situation. The second season added a third girl, Terra, [[spoiler:but she was TheMole and didn't last beyond that]].
* VagueAge: Downplayed, since they are obviously teenagers/young adults, but it's never said how old they actually are. Cyborg being able to drive shows he's somewhere between 16-19. Beast Boy appears to be the youngest due to his size and personality. Robin and Starfire are older than Beast Boy but seem younger than Cyborg (and Starfire is still going through alien puberty). Only Raven is explicitly stated to be 16 to 18 due to her dangerous birthday.
* YoungerAndHipper: In the Wolfman/Perez run of the comics, the Titans were young adults. In this cartoon, they look like young adults but they are all teenagers.

!!Robin / Richard John "Dick" Grayson

!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' CharlesAtlasSuperpower, Martial Arts, Weapons and Devices
->''As much as I hate to admit it, he and I are kind of alike. But there's one big difference between me and Slade: he doesn't have any friends.''

[[quoteright:293:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/teentitans_robin.png]]

Robin is TheLeader of the team. Trained by Franchise/{{Batman}}, he manages to keep on an even keel with a team of metahumans through his intelligence, tactical skills, martial arts prowess and, when it all boils down to basics, enough pure crazy to ''frighten'' the four of them if he really cuts loose. Robin left his position as Batman's sidekick and moved all the way to Jump City to start working solo, only to end up taking charge of the Teen Titans on his first night there and deciding, afterwards, that heading a team might not be so bad after all.

Robin is, at heart, a fairly normal teenager, enjoying hanging out and chilling as much as his comrades do. However, he's Batman's ex-sidekick, and this means he shares his mentor's fixation on discipline and hard work, which can put him at odds with his more relaxed teammates. He's also got issues of his own, namely a tendency to fixate on problems to such an extent that he stops paying attention to anything but "the mission", which has damaged his friendships on more than one occasion. Despite this, he is loyal to his team and takes threats against them seriously indeed.

[[ShrugOfGod The creators are ambivalent]] about which incarnation of Robin he's supposed to be, with WordOfGod stating that he represents "[[CompositeCharacter Robin in general]]" rather than a specific member of the Batclan. However, a number of {{Mythology Gag}}s and several other hints point to him being [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick Grayson]], the first Robin; this is explicitly revealed in the ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'' comic.
----
* TheAce: Talented at everything within normal human capabilities such as martial arts, leadership, detective work, manipulation, inventing, etc.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: He's a bit more straight-laced and serious compared to his ''New Teen Titans'' incarnation.
* AdaptationalBadass: One of the coolest, smartest, strongest and most competent versions of Robin. He is the one who is inspired by Batman, a OneManArmy, and a respected leader of the Titans.
* AmazonChaser: Some of the things he likes the most about Starfire are "the way [she] shoot starbolts, that [she is] brave, and the strongest girl ever."
* AnimalThemedSuperbeing: Well, he is "Robin". Also, it's strongly implied that in his adulthood he will become [[spoiler:Nightwing]].
* AntiHero: He may be the leader of a team of superheroes, but he even admits to himself that he is too dogged in his pursuit of villains, and is not above lying to his friends if it helps his plan.
* ArchEnemy: Slade, naturally, just like his comics-book counterpart with ComicBook/{{Deathstroke}}.
* BackportedDevelopment: Much like the Batman of the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueVsTheFatalFive'', this version of Robin used a glider cape inspired by ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'' and ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'' in ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGoVsTeenTitans''.
* BadassBiker: Sometimes rides a motorcycle when chasing criminals.
* BadassCape: That cape of his is made with titanium! That's right. Titanium! And it's a high density polymer that's ''ten times stronger than steel!''
* BadassInCharge: He leads the Titans while using ass-kicking moves himself.
* BadassNormal: Keeps up with a team of metahumans despite having no powers himself.
* BatmanGambit: Robin pulls these several times through out the series, a notable example being during the " Apprentice" story arc, when he tells Slade that if he kills his friends, he will lose his apprentice too, gambling that Slade hates losing, just like he hates losing.
* BattleCouple: With Starfire. Their combos in battle were seamless before they became a couple.
* BerserkButton: He does not like being compared to Slade. [[UnstoppableRage At all]]. This is most noticeable in the Apprentice episodes; he manages to get over it, but it's still a sensitive issue for him. Deep down Robin does acknowledge their similarities, and his obsession stems from the fact that Slade is always several steps ahead of him.
** Also, God help Beast Boy in "The Beast Within", when Robin [[ThisIsUnforgivable doesn't take too kindly at all to his behavioral change and being a suspect in Raven's attack]].
* TheBigDamnKiss: [[spoiler: With Starfire in The Movie]].
* {{Blackmail}}: Slade does this to him in the Season 1 finale. [[spoiler: Become my apprentice or I will kill your teammates.]]
* BlankWhiteEyes: Averted; his eyes are covered by the mask. Even with the mask gone, the show and movie keep his eyes hidden.
* BrokenAce: Everyone looks to Robin as a great leader that's [[TheAce skilled at everything]]. But on the inside he's dealing with an internal struggle, especially in Season 1 and 3 regarding Slade and his failure in stopping his nemesis. In the BadFuture, he's the only Titan who's become more badass, but at the cost of becoming utterly devoted to his work without any teammates. [[note]]Which, it should be noted, is the opposite of how Nightwing usually works, as he's [[MagneticHero usually the hero with the most allies in the DCU]].[[/note]]
* BrokenPedestal: By the end of Season 1, his obsession to catch and imprison Slade greatly disappoints his teammates, especially when he constantly lies and deceives them.
** It's also implied that he left Batman's side for this very reason.
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Brooding Boy to Starfire's Gentle Girl; always serious and plotting when his not-girlfriend is a perpetual ray of sunshine.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: He can be standoffish and violent at times, but he always had a soft spot for [[LoveInterest Starfire]].
* BurningWithAnger: He was flaming in "Betrothed" when Blackfire spitefully engages Starfire to an ugly blob of an alien.
* CatapultNightmare: Robin wakes up scared and covered in sweat from a nightmare involving [[TheDreaded Slade]] in "Apprentice Part 1".
* CatchPhrase: "Teen Titans, GO!" Usually just shortened to "Titans, GO!"
* CelibateHero: He refuses to be "something more than a hero" regarding his relationship with Starfire [[spoiler: until the end of the Trouble in Tokyo movie.]] Probably a holdover from his mentor.
* CharacterDevelopment: In the prequel episode before the Teen Titans were first formed, he worked alone. After meeting the soon-to-be core members, he has learned a lot about the importance of teamwork and a team itself.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Minor, but he didn't show a hint of jealousy when Starfire found Aqualad very handsome in "Deep Six". Admittedly, there was a villain to stop and he didn't interact with Aqualad as much as Beast Boy did, but it's surprising since he'd later show the slightest hint of hostility when Starfire showed interest in other guys.
* CharacterTics: Robin's habit of punching his palm whenever he gets angry. He does this so often that if he took his glove off, viewers might see permanent knuckle prints there.
** He also grits his teeth whenever he charges into battle.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Shown to be capable of beating down large superpowered beings with his bare hands due to his intense martial arts training.
* ChickMagnet: Over the course of the show, Kitten, Blackfire and Starfire, [[spoiler: whom he hooks up with later]], have all been attracted to him.
* CircusBrat: When Raven reads his mind, she sees an image of trapeze artists falling to their deaths, a strong hint that this Robin is Dick Grayson. [[spoiler: Confirmed in the comics when Robin is clarified to be Dick Grayson.]]
* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve: Inverted. Recently-deceased villain Slade returned to beat the living crap out of Robin... or so Robin thinks. Turns out, [[spoiler:he'd been exposed to a drug that makes him see Slade]], and his body reacts as if he's been struck. He is able to disbelieve in his opponent just in time to save himself from the killing blow.
* CloakOfDefense: Robin's cape is made of a special polymer ten times stronger than steel. He sometimes uses it to shield himself against enemy attacks. In "Winner Take All", it proved strong enough to protect Robin from Hot Spot's fire blasts.
* ClothingDamage: Played for drama. Robin's outfit gets teared apart in "Haunted" when he was fighting with what he thought was Slade.
* CombatParkour: He is very flexible and pulls some impossible stunts.
* CombatPragmatist: Robin will use whatever skills, tactics, or advantages he can find.
* CompetitionFreak: Robin is competitive to the point where it backfires horribly. As Cyborg puts it into words: "Crazy, paranoid, hyper-competitive, spiky-haired little..."
* CompositeCharacter:
** WordOfGod has stated that the idea behind this version was for this Robin to represent "Robin in general" rather than any specific Robin. Hence, this incarnation takes elements from different Robins from the comics. He's largely adapted from Dick Grayson (especially Dick from the New Teen Titans comics)—his future identity as ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}, his backstory, his anger issues, his detective skills, and his love for Starfire are all staples of Dick's character. His willingness to do morally compromising decisions takes after Jason Todd. However, his fighting style (especially his use of the bo staff), his spiked hair, his costume having a black cape lined in yellow, fully covering long green pants legs, and steel-toed boots are all from [[ComicBook/{{Robin}} Tim Drake]], the third Robin.
** In terms of demeanor, he has aspects of Batman's penchant for over-preparedness, grimness, and, at worst, paranoia. In series portraying their partnership, Robin's relatively laid-back and light-hearted nature is used to contrast Batman's own no-nonsense approach and intense obsession with his mission, but with the Titans he takes on a more Batman-like role with them holding him back from his single-mindedness.
* TheConfidant: While he doesn't show it very often, he's one of the more understanding members of The Titans. In "Birthmark" Raven lamented some of her past onto him.
** He tries to be this with Terra. It backfires, inadvertently making her believe that [[SecretKeeper Beast Boy]] told Robin about her inability to control her powers, and starting her down the road to working with Slade and betraying the Titans.
* CrazyJealousGuy: Doesn't like it when Starfire shows interest in other guys.
* CrazyPrepared: Downplayed in that he has a very specific range of gadgets instead choosing to apply them in creative ways...but when he made [[spoiler:the Red X suit]], he included a ''lot'' of anti-Titan gadgets, a fact that gets {{lampshade|Hanging}}d when someone steals the suit and uses it on them. The "downplayed" comes from the fact that he didn't have any ''anti'' anti-Titan gadgets [[spoiler: and thus no way to prevent the Red X suit from being turned against him]].
* DarkAndTroubledPast: His tragic backstory is left largely untouched by the show, but in "Haunted", we get a glimpse of his past, including his parents falling to their deaths. The tie-in comics have an entire issue of him mourning the deaths of the Flying Graysons.
* DarkIsNotEvil: As [[spoiler:the famous Nightwing]].
* {{Determinator}}: He never gives up. ''Never.''
* DistractedByTheSexy: He remains quite speechless when he saw Starfire in a prom dress.
* EnemyMine: He teams up with [[ArchEnemy Slade]] in order to save the world from [[GodOfEvil Trigon]].
* EtTuBrute: In "Haunted" when Starfire shoots him in the back [[spoiler:because he is haunted by hallucinations of Slade and threatens to take down anyone who gets in his way]].
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: His {{U|nresolvedSexualTension}}ST with Starfire.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Despite his flaw being fixation on a goal, even he didn't approve of Mento's stern treatment of Beast Boy.
* ExperiencedProtagonist: He already was a vigilante years before meeting the Titans, serving under Batman's wing.
* ExpressiveMask: His masks widens and narrows with emotion.
* FatalFlaw: He's hypercompetitive and prone to complete fixation on his goal, no matter how important, and this repeatedly proves his undoing.
* FollowInMyFootsteps: Slade tries to force Robin to follow his villainous ways.
* ForcedToWatch: Slade forces Robin into submission, after torturing his friends to death.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Choleric, as his priority is always on the mission at hand, but still has to lead the team.
* FunnyBruceLeeNoises: Being the resident martial artist, he often does this sort of thing.
* FutureBadass: As ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} in "How Long is Forever?"
* GenreBlindness: If Robin wasn't so good at [[IndyPloy improvising]] (and so [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower well-trained]]), he would've been dead a ''long'' time ago. The boy simply has no concept that things may not be what they appear to be. ''He gave a frickin' communicator to a villainess who was masquerading as one of his own team'', which was how the season's BigBad and his EvilMinions captured most of the extended Titans roster. There may be nothing wrong with giving a communicator to someone you think is a friend of yours and who you think might be in trouble soon... but there ''is'' after you just spent the whole episode fighting a ''shapeshifting'' villainess.
* GuiltComplex: Quite a lot when it comes to his past mistakes involving Slade, shown the most in the episode "X".
* HairTriggerTemper: For a usually laid-back guy, he's not good at keeping his anger in check once his buttons are pushed, and can be difficult to talk him down when he's angered.
* TheHero: The super skilled leader of the Titans is the closest thing the show has to a protagonist, he also very selfless and determined.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Despite all the girls listed at ChickMagnet, his ShipTease is only with Starfire [[spoiler: and becomes more than teasing in TheMovie]].
* HotBlooded: Downplayed. He has tremendous intensity in battle, but it's (usually) a focused intensity and he is not given to excessive risk taking.
* InspectorJavert: In "The Beast Within", when Beast Boy undergoes a change and is found near an unconscious Raven, he thought Beast Boy was the culprit and an immediate BrokenPedestal FallenHero and another unrepentant super villain to him and his mates.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Starfire, a Tamaranian.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He may seem abrasive to his teammates and does have a temper, but he does care about them and his heart's in the right place. He's a nice guy most of the time, though he sometimes lets his impatience and stubbornness get in the way of it.
* TheLeader: At times he can seem a Mastermind type, but when in battle, he's a Level Headed type.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: When Starfire travels by accident to the future, she meets Robin as an adult. As [[spoiler:Nightwing]] he is tall, lean, and has long shiny black hair.
* LoveAtFirstPunch: When he and Starfire first met, she beat him up and ''[[SlapSlapKiss then]]'' [[SlapSlapKiss kissed him]] to learn the English language.
* MadeOfIron: Despite training under Batman, he's still a teenage human boy, but can take frankly inhuman amounts of punishment from supernatural or empowered fighters like Slade. Perhaps best illustrated in the first season when Robin [[UnstoppableRage at the height of his anger]] beats and hurls around ''Cinderblock'' within an inch of his life without any strain or harm to himself.
* MarriedToTheJob: His reason for being a CelibateHero is that he's too focused on fighting crime.
* MindRape: Suffers a PTSD mental breakdown after inhaling a drug that makes him hallucinating Slade, to the point of not being capable to make any difference between reality and hallucination.
* MrFanservice: [[spoiler:As Nightwing]], his costume is more form fitting and he has much longer hair.
* MyGreatestFailure: Red X. [[spoiler: More specifically, attacking the Titans under the guise of Red X. Not only does Slade figures it out immediately, but he really damaged the trust of his team. When the costume gets stolen and another person takes on the identity, Robin gets obsessed with catching him because he is a living reminder to Robin of how he betrayed his friends.]]
* TheNapoleon: Robin is a short teenager, is very hot-blooded, and has a quick temper. And ho boy, he does hates when someone makes fun of his height (namely, Cyborg).
* NoSympathy: Due to being around Season 3 where he TookALevelInJerkass, Robin never really expresses concern over Beast Boy's [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness grossly uncharacteristic behavior]] in "The Beast Within", apparently convinced that Beast Boy should remove himself if he won't drop his attitude. After the situation reveals itself to be a matter of Beast Boy turning into a monster that apparently assaulted Raven because his DNA might be coming apart, he initially and immediately viewed Beast Boy as a BrokenPedestal, [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity believes that since Beast Boy is now a monster, he is just another super villain to take down]] and decides to get information by losing his patience and effectively subjecting Beast Boy to PerpSweating. He deliberately amps up the pressure and inevitably causes the second appearance of the Beast, this seems like Robin was deliberately trying to get Beast Boy to FreakOut as an excuse to attack and probably kill him out of RevengeBeforeReason for harming his teammates rather it was physically or emotionally... and nobody ever really discusses this.
* NotHimself: When he has visions of Slade and starts acting crazy.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Has a few problems controlling his anger and violent outbursts in Season 1.
* NotSoAboveItAll: A straight-laced and serious leader a good amount of the time, but still capable of being as goofy or awkward as the rest of the Titans. Probably the best example being in one episode where he goes away on a personal training mission. While he's gone, the rest of the titans sneak into his room and start messing around with his stuff and dressing up in his uniform, going so far as to call each other Robin. When he returns home to find them all dressed as him, they clearly are expecting him to be mad, but he just casually greets each of them as Robin before sitting down to eat some pizza.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: From Slade, though as he notes, he has the one difference that matters: his friends.
* ObliviousToLove: As pointed out under SheIsNotMyGirlfriend on the show page, he and Star had effectively been on ''several'' dates and had several romantic moments by the time he makes his declaration. Apparently, this didn't count. To be fair, most of the ''audience'' probably just chalked them up to ShipTease, meaning we missed it too.
* OddFriendship: He and Raven gain an oddly close relationship starting with season 3's ''Haunted'', when Raven has to mentally possess Robin, causing her to see all of his memories. In a sense, after this she understands him better than anyone else on the team, and a season later, he embarks on an solo trip (initially, [[spoiler:Slade]] joins up too) into the underworld to save her after [[spoiler:her father Trigon]] has been summoned into the world.
* OneManArmy: He took down the entire team while he posed as Red X. The Master of Games even literally refers to him as such in "Winner Take All."
* OnlySaneMan: With Cyborg and Beast Boy constantly fooling around, and Starfire getting excited with just about everything and misunderstands the rest, Robin often ends up like this alongside with Raven.
* OppositesAttract: With Starfire, the bubbly and friendly NiceGirl.
* OtherMeAnnoysMe:
** In "Fractured", Larry's antics drive him up the wall.
** In the crossover ''Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans'', unlike the other Titans, Robin remains permanently irritated by his ''GO!'' counterpart even during the heartwarming parting of ways between the others. {{Downplayed|Trope}} in regards to his ''DCAMU'' counterpart as they don't really interact, but he naturally dislikes how Starfire is attracted to Nightwing.
* ParentalAbandonment: His parents died falling to their deaths from sabotaged trapeze cords. Years later, he is still greatly affected.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's a short kid but he's ''very'' strong, as he trains like a beast with no days off.
* RapidAging: He becomes an old man after getting his youth drained by Mad Mod in "Revolution".
* RavenHairIvorySkin: He is an attractive pale-skinned teenager with dark hair. Is even more obvious when he becomes [[spoiler:Nightwing]].
* RealMenWearPink: He enjoys cooking and it looks quite nice compared to what [[LethalChef Starfire]] comes up with ("The Beast Within").
* SanitySlippage: In the episode "Haunted", a drug causes him to go more and more nutso as a Slade hallucination takes over his mind.
* ScreamingWarrior: Does a lot of screaming in battle.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: With Starfire. No one believes him and in one episode it got him in trouble with Starfire herself, which led to him apologizing as if she ''was'' his girlfriend and he were in the doghouse.
* ShonenHair: {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d and parodied in some episodes. Also [[InvokedTrope invoked]], since Robin is shown styling his hair and Cyborg points out that he reeks of hair gel.
* ShoutOut: He's obviously the first Robin and the show makes sure you know it. When Larry first appears, he reveals his name is Nosyarg Kcid, which is Dick Grayson spelled backwards, a.k.a. the first Robin's real name. In "How Long is Forever?", [[spoiler:he grows up to be Nightwing]], his current comic identity.
* SimpleStaff: His weapon of choice is a collapsible bo staff.
* StandardizedLeader: Varies. He'll often come off like this in episodes that focus on other members of the team, but the ones that focus on him tend to make him a much more nuanced character than this trope implies.
* SidekickGraduationsStick: When the series starts, he is no longer Batman's sidekick; he is still Robin, but leads his own team.
* TheStoic: [[Franchise/{{Batman}} His real father figure]] has rubbed off on him. The result is him expressing little emotion, unless he's in combat.
* TallDarkAndHandsome: Not quite tall, but he sure is dark and handsome. He fits this perfectly when he [[spoiler: becomes Nightwing]].
* TheTeamNormal: The only member of the team that is a standard human with no powers.
* TeensAreShort: Subverted; it's not really most teens in the show, just him and Beast Boy. Gets lampshaded by Cyborg early on when he refers to him as being "4 feet tall and smelling like cheap hair gel".
* TokenHuman: The only completely human member of the team.
* TookALevelInJerkass: He became more aggressive and intolerant towards his teammates in season 3, though it changed quickly.
* TwoRightsMakeAWrong: Faking a new identity, lying to your friends about it, and stealing heavily-guarded tech just to trap Slade cannot end up in something good. Slade himself points out how "stealing in order to trap [him], wasn't so noble".
-->'''Slade:''' ... Two wrongs don't make it r-\\
'''Robin:''' Don't ever lecture me. Whatever you'r planning, slade, it's over!
* UnderstandingBoyfriend: In the episode where Starfire turns into a chrysalis, Robin chases after her, even after seeing all her weird changes. Later when he meets up with her again, he tells her he would have come for her even if she hadn't changed back to normal.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: A ''lot'' with Starfire. [[spoiler: They finally get together in the movie.]]
* VocalDissonance: [[spoiler: As Nightwing. While his normal speaking voice is a bit deeper, his shouts are identical to how he sounded as a teenager.]]
* WhatDoTheyFearEpisode: In one of the comics, Robin's greatest fear is his new "family" falling apart and disappearing.
* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Starfire. [[spoiler: TheyDo in the movie.]]
* WouldHitAGirl: He had no problem getting into a fight with Terra in "Aftershock." Any hesitation he had against her was due to her status as a former teammate, not her gender.
* YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame: Robin rages everytime Slade points out how alike they are.
* YourMindMakesItReal: In "Haunted", when Robin is haunted by hallucinations of Slade, Raven enters his mind and tries to calm him down by showing there is no one there - only for the hallucination to punch Raven in the jaw.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/teentitans_starfire.png]]

Technically the reason the Teen Titans exist in this show, Starfire is the second of the three children of the Royal Family of Tamaran. When her planet was attacked and devastated by the Gordanians, Starfire's elder sister Blackfire made a peace settlement with the invaders by giving them her younger sibling as a slave. Unfortunately for her captors, Starfire, while apparently rather naive and gentle by Tamaranian standards, was too much for them to handle, breaking loose and flying to Earth. There, she had an... ''interesting'' meeting with the other future Teen Titans, who came to her defense against the Gordanians. Like all her species, Starfire can fly, is super strong, is extremely durable, and can hurl energy blasts called "starbolts."

Starfire is a strange mixture of personality traits; most of the time, she acts quite gentle and demure, possibly due to expectations of Earth culture and desire to better assimilate in her adopted home, but when the need arises she can be as much the fearsome warrior as any of her comrades. Starfire is deeply fascinated by Earth and enjoys learning new things... perhaps partially because it gives her an excuse to get closer to her leader.
----
* ActionGirl: She's a superheroine and a Teen Titan, so this is a given.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In contrast to her comic book counterpart (who is more forceful and hot-tempered), Starfire in this cartoon is naive, innocent, and somewhat insecure.
* AdaptationalCurves: Inverted. Starfire was the curviest female Titan in the Wolfman/Perez run, but here she was radically toned down to look more like a teenager rather than a young adult.
* AdaptationalModesty: Currently the trope picture. Starfire's outfit shows her midriff as well as some ZettaiRyouiki, but it's positively tame compared to the beyond-ComicBook/EmmaFrost-level {{Stripperiffic}} outfits of her comic book counterpart. In a prior New Teen Titan short for DC Nation, Mad Mod transformed the Titans back into their 80s incarnations. Starfire's outfit was once again more modest than what she actually wore in the comics, but was still skimpy enough that she covered herself up in embarrassment.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: While she was also nice in the comics, as noted above, this version is less of a hothead than her comic counterpart.
* AlienBlood: It's yellow, as seen in one episode where she {{blush|Sticker}}es.
* AlienLunch: Has some weird tastes in Earth food -- admittedly, some of it is because she's not a native and so doesn't truly know what humans eat, but she's also got some very strange eating habits (like considering mustard a drink). Her friends treat her as something of a LethalChef whenever she tries to cook a Tamaranian meal for them.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Justified in that her ability to speak English gets explained later on in the series. She ''didn't'' speak English initially, but she can learn it instantly by kissing someone that does.
* AllThereInTheManual: It is the ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'' comics that reveal why she was a Gordanian prisoner and the existence of her younger brother.
* AmusingAlien: An alien that doesn't get Earth slang or other customs, and has bizarre ones of her own.
* ApologeticAttacker: Often acts regretful when attacking people, such as wondering if she blasted Plasmus too hard.
* ArrangedMarriage: Almost went through with one of these. She'd been told it would end a war, but in fact it was a ruse by Blackfire.
* BadassAdorable: A bubbly and naive girl who is also super strong and shoots lasers from her hands.
* BareYourMidriff: She wears a crop top that shows her midriff most of the time. Even while the rest of the team are all wearing Robin's costume in his absence, Starfire wears a midriff baring version (which may be at least partly due to being so much taller than he is).
* BattleCouple: With Robin. Their combos in battle were seamless before they became a couple.
* BerserkButton:
** She dislikes being pranked.
-->'''Starfire: ''' On my planet, we have a name for those who do such terrible things, you are a... a.. (head expands) CLORBAG Varblernilk!!!
** Don't flirt with Robin.
* BellyButtonLess: Subverted. She had no visible belly button in the cartoon. In the videogame and some of the comics, it's more visible.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She's a NiceGirl, no doubt about that, but she'll still kick your ass if you're a villain.
* TheBigDamnKiss: [[spoiler: With Robin in The Movie]].
* BigEater: Shows she is this in "Betrothed" when she and her fellow Tamaranians engaged in a feeding frenzy during dinner.
* {{The Big G|uy}}irl: As both a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy proud warrior race girl]] and the physically strongest Titan, although her preference for playing FlyingFirepower over FlyingBrick and bubbly disposition make it less noticeable.
* BizarreAlienBiology: She has 9 stomachs, a three/four meter long prehensile tongue, and the ability to learn a language through oral contact. Also, she underwent a chrysalis phase and apparently has no navel.
* BizarreTasteInFood:
** She loves mustard. No, she doesn't put it on food--she likes to ''drink'' it.
** She was the only one who enjoyed [[LethalChef Raven's]] cooking of half-raw half-burnt pancakes.
* BluntMetaphorsTrauma: Can't quite get a handle on Earth slang. For instance, when asked if she "digs this party", she replied that "I didn't know we were supposed to bring shovels."
* BondBreaker: A rare heroic example, and an unintentional one at that. After Starfire goes through time while fighting Warp, she disappears from the rest of the Titans' lives. What was a few seconds for her was twenty years for the rest of the team, and none of them handled her absence well since she balanced them out.
* BoobsOfSteel: Quite powerful in physical sense, and better endowed than the rest of the female cast.
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: Gentle Girl to Robin's Brooding Boy; a kind ray of sunshine in her not-boyfriend's otherwise gloomy life.
* BroughtDownToBadass: In "Stranded", she temporarily loses all of her powers, but she's far from helpless, being a {{Proud Warrior Race G|uy}}irl and all.
* BurningWithAnger: In "Date With Destiny", she literally burns up until she became a burnt match with eyes when Robin was forced to ask Kitten out.
* CainAndAbel: The Abel to Blackfire's Cain; they fight every time she shows up.
* TheChick: One of ''two'' girls on the team, but she's more feminine than Raven and serves as [[TheHeart the team's heart]].
* ClingyJealousGirl: She really doesn't like Kitten's interest in Robin in "Date with Destiny".
* CloudCuckoolander: Justified; she is, after all, [[FishOutOfWater an alien adjusting to life on Earth]].
* CluelessDudeMagnet: Starfire would sometimes not realize she's getting hit on by guys.
* CoolCrown: Briefly wears one during her brief period as the Grand Ruler of Tamaran in "Betrothed."
* CuddleBug: "I would like to initiate a group hug!"
* CuteBruiser: The CuddleBug just might crush you.
* TheCutie: A high energy and adorable nice girl that likes to give her friends hugs.
* DangerouslyShortSkirt: A miniskirt, specifically, but trying to get a peek ''will'' result in a CurbStompBattle.
* DarkSkinnedRedhead: "Bouncy, energetic, fiery personality"? Check! Besides, she's an alien so of course she won't reflect earth nationalities.
* DefeatByModesty: In "Mother Mae Eye" while See-More is fighting Starfire, See-More reveals he had "see-through" vision and then gazes intently at Starfire, which prompts her to cover herself up while blushing. This allows her to be an easy target for See-More's next attack.
* DistressBall: In ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansTroubleInTokyo''. She forgets that ''she can fly'' and has to be snatched out of the air mid-drop by Robin, who has no super-powers. [[JustifiedTrope Her powers are emotion based and it wouldn't be the first time she lost them due to issues relating to Robin]].
* DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength: On occasion, as seen whenever she hugs someone too hard. This is actually a plot point in "Go!", where she's just escaped the Gordanian slave ship with her handcuffs on and tries to break them off by smashing them into things; she isn't aware that things on Earth aren't built to handle people with SuperStrength, so between that and the LanguageBarrier, she looks like she's just on a rampage and destroying the city.
* DreadfulMusician: In "Only Human", when she sings her "Tamaranean folk song", it consists mostly of screaming and it annoys Cyborg, and in the end, the others appear to be terrified of it.
* DudeMagnet: Robin is only her most consistent admirer. She quickly became very popular in Tokyo.
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue: Her English only sounds childish or broken because it's her second language. On Tamaran, the opposite is true.
* EtTuBrute: Happens to her in the two-parter episode, "Apprentice", when she discovers that Robin is working with Slade and was stealing the thermal blaster for him.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: Her UnresolvedSexualTension with Robin.
* ExposedToTheElements: When the other four Titans bundle up when in arctic areas, Starfire still wears her usual outfit with no discomfort. The only piece of winterwear she put on was a hat. This is because Tamarians can survive in ''space'' without protection, so Arctic areas are no trouble.
* EyeBeams: Puberty grants her the ability to shot star bolts from her eyes in addition to her hands.
* FantasticRacism: Was a victim of it in "Troq". According to Val-Yor, Tamaranians are seen to a section of the universe as disposable workers for dangerous areas.
* FantasticSlurs: Is on the receiving end of this when she is called "Troq" by Val-Yor. It means "nothing" or "worthless".
* FashionableAsymmetry: She wears a metal band on one arm.
* FieryRedhead: She doesn't have the fiery temper ([[BewareTheNiceOnes unless you hurt her friends]]), but she's very passionate and [[GenkiGirl energetic]]. She even throws her starbolts by feeling "righteous fury!"
* FishOutOfWater: She's a Tamaranian living on Earth.
* FlyingBrick: Standard Tamaranian powers include flight and super-strength.
* FlyingFirepower: She's like aerial artillery for the Titans due to her flight and starbolts.
* {{Foil}}: Provides a more lighthearted, sympathetic contrast to Robin's HotBlooded seriousness. This makes her a frequent partner of Robin's during fights.
* ForeignFanservice: She came from another ''planet'', and when she came to earth, she shucked her partial armor in favor of a mini skirt and tanktop.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine, being the most compassionate and friendly of all the Titans.
* {{Gainaxing}}: It's subtle, but her breasts occasionally jiggle as she moves.
* GenkiGirl: Justified; all that emotional energy is the source of her super powers. 'Joy' for {{Flight}}, 'confidence' for super strength, and general perkiness.
* GirlyBruiser: Her standard attire involves a mini-skirt and tanktop, she has a bubbly personality, and can beat down supervillains with super-strength or star bolts. According to the episode [[WholeEpisodeFlashback "Go"]], her "girliness" is something she's picked up since coming to Earth; before then, she was more of a {{Proud Warrior Race G|uy}}irl.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Starfire is nice, cheery and wears very girly attires. She is also well-versed in less girly things, like boxing, enjoys to compete with Cyborg for fun and shouts out swears in Tamaranean, and it's implied they are very dirty ones.
* {{Glomp}}: Hands out enthusiastic (and often painful) hugs quite readily.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Whenever she fights. It's a JustifiedTrope because her EyeBeams are charging.
* GratuitousPrincess: She's a princess of Tamaran, but this rarely comes up.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: She is a cute alien girl with orange skin that wears a skimpy outfit.
* TheHeart: "How Long Is Forever?" establishes that she's the emotional crutch holding the team together.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Graduates to such a stage with Raven during "Switched". Trapped in each others' bodies, they have to learn to understand each other just to access each others' powers.
* IAmAMonster: In "Transformation", Starfire thinks herself as this during her metamorphosis, fearing that her final transformation will cause her to be too hideous to be seen with anyone else, even her friends. Afraid her friends will view her as a freak, she chose to isolate herself in outer space. Fortunately, she reverts back to her old self. (Mostly.)
* IBelieveICanFly: One of three titans that can fly. In her case, it's a racial ability. "When you feel the joy of flight, you will fly."
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: In "Haunted", Starfire had no choice but to knock Robin out with a starbolt to the back when he went as far as to threaten the others that he'll take them down should they get in his way of finding Hallucination!Slade.
* ImportantCharacterImportantEvidence: Starfire was the first one to realize that Red X is [[spoiler: Robin]].
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: She doesn't need clothing for warmth or protection, so she doesn't wear much. In one story in the comics, it was revealed that she doesn't have a nudity taboo: she was left mystified why Robin and Cyborg were reacting the way they were.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Robin, a human.
* JabbaTableManners: At least on her home planet. Though given the way all of her race eats when at a table, it's required to get any of the food before someone else devours it.
-->'''Robin''': I'm guessing you picked up your table manners on Earth?\\
'''Starfire''': ''(shoving food into her mouth)'' HURRY OR YOU WILL NOT GET ANY!
* JustFriends: Even before their RelationshipUpgrade, she considered Robin her best friend, to the point where she [[spoiler: couldn't attack him when he was working for Slade]].
* LethalChef: At least by Earth standards.
--> '''Cyborg''' ''(not in his right mind)'': Ooh! Ooh! Starfire! Remember that purple Tamaranian pie thingy that was full of bugs?\\
'''Starfire''': My stewed grunthmek which made you physically sick?\\
'''Cyborg''': YEAH! You gotta cook up some of that!
* LightEmUp: Her main superpower is firing off green bolts of light.
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: The Light to Raven's Dark; bubbly and friendly and nice.
* LightIsGood: Her star bolts and glowing eyes are the bane of super villains.
* LightningBruiser: Not only is she fast and strong but she can tank a lot of hurt.
* MadeASlave: She was enslaved by a group of Gordanians before escaping to Earth. The episode "Go!" shows the tail end of this.
* MagicKiss: Her ability to learn new languages is through kissing.
* MagicSkirt: Despite her skirt being a mini and her frequent flying, there are very few panty shots.
* MalfunctionMalady: Her chromium allergy causes her to sneeze starbolts.
* MostCommonSuperpower: Better endowed than Raven or other female Titans.
* MsFanservice: Her usual outfit is a crop top, miniskirt, and thigh high boots. This is especially apparent next to Raven, who is usually hiding in her cloak. However, it's much more downplayed in comparison to her comics counterpart, who had a far skimpier outfit.
* MusclesAreMeaningless: She's a ''lot'' stronger than she looks. [[GlacierWaif A lot tougher too]]. Robin's staff shattered against her in "Go!", and in "Betrothed", she's easily able to pick up a massive Tamaranean goblet, while Beast Boy and Cyborg struggle with theirs.
* NiceGirl: She's constantly friendly, even to the jerkass that calls her a fantastic slur.
* NoSocialSkills: Justified with her unfamiliarity with Earth
* {{Omniglot}}: She can learn any language by a kissing a speaker of it. By extension, this makes her TheFace when they go somewhere that doesn't speak English.
* OppositesAttract: With Robin; he's serious and gloomy while she's outgoing and cheerful.
* OutOfFocus: An interesting variation. She's a main character, obviously, and several episodes do focus on her, but out of the core group, Starfire is the only one who didn't get a season revolving around her[[note]]It's often been speculated that, had there been a sixth season, Blackfire would have served as the BigBad[[/note]].
* PantyShot: Starfire's skirt still follows the magic skirt rule, however some episodes give a view thanks to [[FreezeFrameBonus Blink And You'll Miss]] camera angles such as "Sisters", "Switched", "X", and more. "Can I Keep Him?" has one where there's nothing under there...
* PardonMyKlingon: For a girl who's supposed to be [[TheIngenue sweet and innocent]], she uses Tamaranian swears frequently.
* PartialTransformation: In "Transformation", Starfire slowly gains these, but reverts at the end.
* PerpetualSmiler: She's rarely down and even when she is, she'll try to smile anyways. There's a practical reason for this: her flight powers are based on "joy" and she'll sink like a rock otherwise.
* PingPongNaivete: On occasion, it seems like she's learning and adapting to earth culture, only to be as naive as ever about it the next episode. Hilariously played with in one episode with a blatant example of ObfuscatingStupidity:
-->'''Robin''': Starfire... where's the sofa?\\
'''Starfire''': Your Earth ways are strange to me. Please, what is this 'so-fa' of which you speak?
* PleaseKillMeIfItSatisfiesYou: "Robin, you are my best friend. I cannot be in a world where we must fight. If you are truly evil, then go ahead, do what you must."
* PlotAllergy: Her allergy to chromium comes up in "Apprentice part 1" and is used to locate a bomb, but is never brought up again afterwards.
* PowerIncontinence: Considering how emotional she is, getting stuck in Raven's body during an episode basically makes her a WalkingDisasterArea as windows shatter and cars explode around her as she gets more and more worked up.
* PowerStrainBlackout: In her introductory arc she faints after using her powers.
* {{Proud Warrior Race G|uy}}irl: The WholeEpisodeFlashback "Go!" which was how the team got together, shows this. She's ''far'' more angry and prone to violence than the Starfire we're used to (it helps that she's in the middle of escaping a life of slavery) and when she learns English, she says the closest word her race has to "kindness" is "weakness". It's disconcerting, considering that everyone on Tamaran besides her sister is a good-natured BoisterousBruiser at the worst. Chalk it up to [[FridgeBrilliance her understanding of english being far from perfect]]. Or trying to sound tough and intimidating.
* PsychosomaticSuperpowerOutage: She needs to feel happy to fly, so when she's depressed, she loses the ability to fly.
* PubertySuperpower: She gained Eye-beams after her "transformation" period.
* RedOniBlueOni: She is the red to Raven's blue.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
** Starfire sadly compares Robin to Slade in "Masks", for not trusting her and the others enough.
** She gives another one to Raven in "Switched", about how she doesn't let herself feel.
* RubberForeheadAliens: Aside from having green sclera and slightly orange-tinted skin, she looks pretty human for an alien and certainly human enough for Earth boys to find her attractive. Note that her sister Blackfire actually looks completely human, with white sclera and a more human-like skin tone/hair color.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: Energetic Girl to Robin's Savvy Guy. As stated elsewhere, perkiness is her power source and she's just like that anyways.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Though not unattractive in the slightest, she was quite stunning in her purple prom dress in "Date With Destiny". Robin certainly thought so.
* ShoeSizeAngst: In "Transformation", she goes through a metamorphosis equivalent to puberty, during which she experiences several physical changes. One of those changes involves the massive growth of her feet. Fortunately for her, this is only temporal.
* ShutUpKiss: In "Go!", but mainly just to learn the English language. [[spoiler: Played straight in the movie's ending.]]
-->'''Starfire''': ''Robin''.\\
'''Robin''': Yes?\\
'''Starfire''': ''Stop talking.''
* SiblingRivalry: With Blackfire. In her introductory episode, Blackfire tried to steal her friends.
* SiblingYinYang: Again, with Blackfire who is cruel and sinister where Starfire is sweet and kind.
* SpockSpeak:
** A rare version in that she doesn't speak this way due to a fascination with logic/science, but as a sign of her relative inexperience with Earth languages. She's not skilled enough with it yet for informal forms and slang.
** She's also royalty, so it's likely that she's used to speaking formally.
* StatuesqueStunner: Downplayed compared to her comic version (who is famously 6 foot, 4 inches tall ''without'' her heels), though she's the second tallest Titan and taller than primary love interest Robin.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Her outfit is rather skimpy, but it's winterwear compared to her comic book version.
* SuperGullible: Starfire lacks experience with Earth culture and tends to accept explanations without a second thought, since the culture difference is so large that it's hard to tell crazy from crazy.
* SuperToughness: A natural feature of her species. She can take more punishment than even Cyborg, as she usually gets up quickly after being smashed through buildings and caught in explosions and such.
* SuperStrength: Even beats Cyborg in this regard; she easily hefts a giant Tamaranian goblet that he struggled to budge. In another episode, Cyborg was stand pressing a huge load of weights, struggling a bit and feeling proud when he lifts them up. However, Starfire next to him effortlessly lifts her weights with only one arm, and it's revealed she was pressing at least four times the amount of weights Cyborg was doing.
* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: When Starfire was undergoing metamorphosis, she retreats into space out of shame. On one of the planets she visits, she gets attacked by a giant alien carnivorous plant. Starfire wasn't able to fight it off and gets eaten... only to be spat back out. The alien plant leaves in disgust, making Starfire feel even more dejected.
* TownGirls: The Femme to Raven's Neither and Terra's Butch. She's the sweet, naive, and girly one of the titans.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Mustard. It's her favorite ''drink''.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: A ''lot'' with Robin. [[spoiler: They finally get together in the movie.]]
* UnusualEyebrows: Her eyebrows are shaped like dots.
* VerbalTic: She never uses contractions (so she will always say "I am" instead of "I'm" or "Is not" instead of "Isn't"), probably because she basically downloaded the language rather than learned it, only allowing her to process the most necessary elements of communication. (Although, she does say "Let's" instead of "Let us" in "The Lost Episode".) She also has a habit of using "the" in sentences where it's either unnecessary or where another word might sound more natural.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: The prom episode with Killer Moth and Kitten, though it was Fang who felt the brunt of Starfire's protective wrath.
-->"Keep your legs off my boy!"
* WarriorPrincess: She's second in line to the Tamaranian throne and the Tamaranian are a proud warrior race culture.
* WhatDoTheyFearEpisode: In one of the comics. Her greatest fear is her friends betraying her and turning her back over to Blackfire and slavery.
* WillTheyOrWontThey: With Robin. [[spoiler: TheyDo in the movie.]]
* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry:
** In "Go!", Starfire was a raging berserker at first, who nearly took out the other Titans and destroyed a good portion of the city, and that was with her restraints ''on''. She eventually mellowed out.
** Then there were her jealous rages in "Date With Destiny"...

[[folder:Beast Boy]]
!!Beast Boy / Garfield Mark Logan
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/GregCipes (English), Creator/KokiMiyata (Japanese), Creator/EzequielSerrano (Latin American Spanish), Leonardo Graziano (IT seasons 1-4), Gabriele Patriarca (IT, Season 5), Creator/HerveGrull (FR), Charles Emmanuel (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' {{Animorphism}}
->''I'm not a man...I'M AN ANIMAL!!!''

[[quoteright:240:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/teentitans_beast_boy.png]]

The son of two scientists studying wildlife in Africa, Beast Boy was infected as a child with a mysterious disease, the experimental cure for which gave him the ability to turn into any animal, but permanently dyed him green. His parents drowned in a boating accident -- Beast Boy being too inexperienced to save anyone but himself -- and he was subsequently adopted by the Comicbook/DoomPatrol. It wasn't a stable family, and Beast Boy subsequently ran away after he hit puberty.

Beast Boy is the unofficial [[PluckyComicRelief comedian]] of the team, though most of his teammates consider his typical array of jokes and pranks to be pretty groan-worthy, and it's implied that, like his comics counterpart, he's one of the "jokes to hide the pain inside" types. Whether he is or isn't, he is the youngest, in terms of behavior, of the team, obsessed with video games and goofing off, which means he's often chewed out by Robin. A devout vegetarian: as he has ''been'' [[{{Animorphism}} just about every animal under the sun]], he finds [[CarnivoreConfusion eating any kind of meat]] to be [[ImAHumanitarian too similar to cannibalism for his liking]]. (Though it might be more accurate to a call him a vegan- he eats tofu eggs rather than regular ones in "Nevermore"- but the show always refers to him as a vegetarian.)
----
* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: Twice he's had to choose between saving his team or shutting down a Doomsday Device by the Brain. He ''always'' chooses his friends. Mento chews him out for it, while Robin and the Titans are grateful.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Although it could be attributed to his lack of education and youth, Beast Boy shows signs of ADHD. He gets distracted easily, he's impulsive, he's quite hyperactive, and he appears to have memory issues (he can't remember any facts or trivia that aren't related to pop culture). At the same time, he often shows creativity and ingenuity with his shapeshifting, a vivid imagination, and surprising competence when he is focused on a singular goal (finding Terra, getting a Moped, fighting Slade one-on-one, [[spoiler:and coming up with a plan to defeat the Brotherhood of Evil with a small team of heroes]]). He also sometimes shows signs of [[SadClown depression]], which often coincides with ADHD.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: It's never mentioned in-series just what he is. He actually ''is'' a human with green skin and animorphism powers, however the cartoon doesn't explain this.
* {{Animorphism}}: Name an animal and he has been it.
* AscendedFanboy: His favorite superhero when he was with the Doom Patrol was Robin.
* AttackAttackAttack: The nature of his powers means he usually resorts to galloping or flying at the enemy, transforming into something brutish and wailing on whatever he can reach. He spends many battles rapidly shifting forms to alter his apparoach and keep his foes from getting comfortable.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: The youngest member of the Doom Patrol, before he left.
* BadassAdorable: The cute and endearing kid can become a legion of mighty animals.
* BeastMan: Because of his time being shape-shifted into different animals, he sometimes displays animalistic behavior. On one occasion, he even tries to name himself this but it's vetoed.
* BerserkButton: Don't talk to him about Terra's betrayal.
* TheBerserker: Beast Boy is usually the most bull-headed of the team when it comes to fighting as he usually charges into combat with brute force. Although that's when he's tamed and angering him will is possibly when Beast Boy is at his most dangerous state as he will usually act out in a literal animalistic fury. With his best example being his Werebeast form where he becomes more aggressive and is more prone to being uncontrollable.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: As goofy and playful as he is, he still manages to be effective.
** He was able to take on ''Slade'' single-handedly when [[UnstoppableRage sufficiently enraged]]. Never cross a guy who can turn into the most dangerous animals ever to walk the earth at will.
** He caused [[spoiler:''[[{{Satan}} Trigon]]'']] a bit of pain with a ''wet-willy''-inspired attack. OK, he had actually [[spoiler:changed into a whale inside his head]], but he still got the idea from the wet-willy and called it his 'patented wet-willy maneuver'.
** The Brotherhood of Evil didn't take him seriously [[spoiler: which is why he wasn't captured and why they failed in the end]].
** It should be noted that Beast Boy is the only Titan who has tried to kill someone, as we see with his fight against the Slade-bot in “Things Change”. He had no idea this wasn’t the real Slade, and still attempted to brutally kill him in T. rex form.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: When he gets serious he's very competent.
* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: One of his animal forms is a Sasquatch.
* TheBigGuy: Variation. He's the shortest and skinniest member on the team, but he often relies on brute force.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: The Doom Patrol was not exactly the most stable or caring environment. Never the less when he's gets a distress signal from his old team he goes to rescue them without a second thought.
* BlessedWithSuck: His powers ''would'' be amazing for certain types of espionage missions if it weren't for the fact that any animal he changes into is green.
* BoisterousBruiser: Beast Boy is easily the most energetic and excitable member of the team who enjoys having fun and throwing himself into the action more than anyone.
* BookDumb: It pops up from time-to-time, justified in that he wasn't properly educated. In "Revolution" he gives a very fanciful, inaccurate recount of the "Boston Tea Party", leading Raven to ask if he learnt history from a cereal box. Turns out he did.
-->'''Beast Boy''': Now I know how George Washington felt when Napoleon beat him at Pearl Harbor.
* {{Brainwashed}}: Whilst the other four core members have also fallen victim to this special mention goes to Beast Boy who tends to fall victim to it more often and far more easily, which in itself became a RunningGag in the first Mad Mod episode.
* ButtMonkey: His laid back attitude, lack of intelligence and incompetence generally make him the least tolerated Titan. Poor guy even suffers in the DownerEnding. No wonder he's embarrassed that his first name is the same as that of [[ComicStrip/{{Garfield}} a certain well-known cat]].
* CannotTellAJoke: His sense of humor is often infantile and tends to make the rest of the Titans groan, especially Raven.
* CatchPhrase: "Dude!"
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Originally Beast Boy was written without reference to his comicbook storyline, so the most he ever had to angst about was his disastrous relationship with Terra, and some disrespect from the other Titans on the other. Then the PostScriptSeason started and, strapped for material, the creators decided to bring the Doom Patrol in, which required them to alter Gar's past and history into the show[[note]]compare Cyborg, who at least had a handful of lines over the course of the show describing what life was like before he became what he is today[[/note]]. The show's spinoff comicbook took this even farther by also making canon the earliest part of his comic origin story (his birth parents died in a flood in Africa when he was a boy). The end result is a Beast Boy who is ''substantially'' more complex than the show ever intended.
* ChickMagnet: In the movie, he gets his own legion of Japanese fangirls, and enjoys it very much.
* ChivalrousPervert: Despite wanting attention from the opposite sex, Beast Boy doesn't push his boundaries.
* CloseRangeCombatant: It's worth noting that he's the only Titan that is technically required to get up close and personal when fighting. The [=PS2=] game fakes a few projectiles by letting him throw bananas as a monkey and letting him turn into a werewolf with ferociously nasty breath.
* CoolMask: Continued to wear his Doom Patrol mask until the formation of the Titans where Raven pointed out that there was little point concealing his identity when he was so easily distinguishable due to his green skin.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass:
** He really gets to show how badass he can really be in Season Five. [[spoiler: Despite being the PluckyComicRelief, he's quite possibly the least inhibited of all the Titans. He managed to foil the Brotherhood's plot to capture him, then successfully organized a counterattack against them with only a handful of people before the rest of the Titans came through in a BigDamnHeroes moment.]]
** It's worth pointing out that he and Robin are the ''only'' superhero veterans on the team.
** It's also worth noting that besides Raven, Beast Boy is not only able to fight Slade one-on-one, but he's also capable of actually ''scaring'' Slade. Which is probably a good explanation for why Slade sent [[spoiler: a robot]] after Beast Boy in "Things Change", rather than going himself. Had he gone himself, Slade probably would've been killed.
* CryingWolf: In the second issue of ''Teen Titans Go!'', which is even titled "Cry Wolf!" revolves around Beast Boy pranking his friends until none of them believe anymore his cries for help, even when the danger is real. And no, he doesn't learn his lesson.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: He must have had green eyes before the mutating. It matches with his green hair.
* CuteBruiser: Beast Boy is an odd example. He himself is cute but the forms he takes to do the bruising seldom are, unless of course, you think the ''T. rex'' or gorilla morph etc. are cute.
* CuteLittleFangs: His default form has tiny fangs.
* CuteMonsterBoy: Covers this with his green skin, pointed ears, and CuteLittleFangs.
* DeadpanSnarker: A rarity of Beast Boy as he makes sarcastic comments only when he is irritated. More obvious in the tie-in comics.
--> '''Aqualad''': We Atlanteans try to keep a low profile.\\
'''Beast Boy''': Good job. Don't think anybody even noticed you.
* DidNotGetTheGirl: [[spoiler: ''Twice''! Terra's HeelFaceTurn resulted in her death, and when Beast Boy believes he found her again in the flesh, she doesn't remember him]].
* DoesNotLikeSpam: Beast Boy is down on meat in general since, as an animal-based shape-shifter he has "Been most of those animals" and the thought of eating them squicks him out.
* DoggedNiceGuy: Towards Terra. He tries to win her affections even after she betrayed the Titans and apparently lost her memories and chose to live a normal life.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Deconstructed in "The Beast Within", where it's clearly shown during the fight against Adonis that Beast Boy has deep anger issues because of the lack of appreciation from the other Titans, and during the fight all of his repressed anger goes out and he totally curb stomps Adonis, much to the shock of the other Titans.
* EmbarrassingFirstName: It's [[spoiler: Garfield]].
-->'''Raven''': I'm gonna get a loooot of mileage out of this one.
* EtTuBrute: In the episode, "Betrayal", when he learns that Terra was Slade's apprentice.
* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: He often takes the form of a ''T. rex'' for the stomping power. He also occasionally transforms into ''Triceratops'', ''Stegosaurus'', ''Ankylosaurus'', ''Apatosaurus'', and two kinds of raptor.
* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: He will take the form of a gorilla for brute strength. He also turned into a spider monkey, a baboon, and an orangutan.
* FatalFlaw: His immaturity. The fact that he doesn't take all that much seriously means the other Titans resist putting their trust in him and are sometimes willing to believe the worst about him. He also tends to outright ignore social cues and as such has more than a few InnocentlyInsensitive moments, mostly with Raven.
* {{Flanderization}}: Beast Boy is already a high-energy crouching moron; it really doesn't take a lot of sloppy writing to turn him into an outright pest. ''Trouble in Tokyo'' and the spinoff ''Teen Titans Go'' comics (along with the [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo quasi-Spin-Off of the same title]]) are good examples.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Sanguine, As he's very sociable, carefree, and actively seeks out the company others.
* FreudianExcuse: It's implied his immature and carefree attitude was the result of being brought up as a MilitaryBrat by Mento. Notably, in "Go!" (which takes place shortly after he left the Doom Patrol), he's ''much'' more uptight, even calling Robin "Sir."
* GeniusDitz: Clearly not the most book smart of the Titans, but he can be an effective leader when he gets serious. Also, he's very smart when it comes to ''comic'' books which is essential when fighting Control Freak. He also has a near encyclopedic knowledge of animals, since he is aware of things like amoeba and knows about less popular dinosaurs (he transforms into several prehistoric animals that most teens wouldn't know even existed).
* GenreSavvy: He spends his free time playing games and watching TV.
** It saved the day once against Control Freak because he knew the WeaksauceWeakness of the fictional character that empowered Control Freak.
** In "Fear Itself", he knows full well that [[LetsSplitUpGang splitting up]] when horror-movie stuff has happened is the absolute ''worst'' thing you can do, and that the comic relief guy is always the first to go. Fittingly enough, he ''is'' the first one taken, although thankfully it's not DeathByGenreSavvy.
* GlobalIgnorance: As part of his BookDumb persona. He believed the Great Wall to be in '''Japan'''.
* GroundPound: One of his more effective tactics is to fly high over an opponent as a bird or pterodactyl and then morph into a [[ShamuFu whale]] or something equally gargantuan. Gravity does the rest.
* GrowingUpSucks: He tends to act very immature for the most part, but he starts to learn the importance of maturity in the fifth season.
* TheHeart: To a lesser extent than Starfire. When things gets tense, he's the first to break the ice with his jokes, and goes to great lengths to see Raven laugh or smile. Then there's this beautiful exchange with Raven from Spellbound.
--> '''Beast Boy''': I'm sorry he broke your heart.\\
'''Raven''': I know it was all a lie. And he was the only person who made me feel like I wasn't... creepy. And don't try to tell me I'm not.\\
'''Beast Boy''': Okay. Fine. You're way creepy. But that doesn't mean you have to stay locked in your room. You think you're alone, Raven, but you're not.\\
(Raven walks out of her room and hugs Beast Boy)
* HeartbrokenBadass: He never got over losing Terra.
* HeroWorshipper: To Robin in "Go!". Despite both of them being veteran superheroes, it's clear he believes Robin is the real deal.
* HeroicRematch: It's guaranteed that Beast Boy fares substantially better the second time a villain faces the Titans.
** Useless in the [[Recap/TeenTitansS1E10MadMod "Mad Mod"]], critical in [[Recap/TeenTitansS3E7Revolution "Revolution"]].
** First to disappear in [[Recap/TeenTitansS2E5FearItself "Fear Itself"]], the one to beat Control Freak in [[Recap/TeenTitansS4E1Episode297494 "Don't Touch that Dial"]].
** Slade neutralizes all of the Titans except Robin in Season 1? Come Season 5, he can take Slade on himself.
** Brotherhood of Evil. It should be noted that his fight against the Brotherhood is actually the umpteenth time he's kicked their ass, with the last two that we see ''both'' being times he took them down on his own.
* HiddenDepths:
** Beast Boy is skilled in origami.
** "The Beast Within" shows during the fight against Adonis that he has deep anger issues because of the lack of appreciation from the other Titans.
** As mentioned under Sacrificed Basic Skill For Awesome Training, he's also a PlayfulHacker.
* HowDoIShotWeb: During his time with the Doom Patrol, he couldn't change into animals much bigger than his base form. His last act before leaving the group was overcoming this by turning into a T-Rex.
* HulkingOut: The Beast Within is really Beast Boy's answer to [[Comicbook/IncredibleHulk the Hulk]] more than anything else, being Beast Boy's enormous green rage monster, as it were. Just furry and clawed.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Although Beast Boy is a very vivacious social being, in the episode "Go!" when the Titans first meet, Beast Boy wants to hang out with the other Titans and befriend them mentioning that he hadn't hung out with anybody since the Doom Patrol. This implies that he has been a bit of a loner for a while and likes making friends. In the episode, "Every Dog Has His Day", Beast Boy became depressed when nobody wanted to hang out with him.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: In "Things Change", [[spoiler:Beast Boy decides to let Terra go so she can enjoy a normal life]].
* IconicItem: Has a snaggle tooth that carries over into every animal form he assumes.
* InSeriesNickname: B.B., used by Cyborg and Terra.
* JekyllAndHyde: He endures a case of this in one episode. He comes in contact with a chemical, which intensifies his anger. If he's provoked at all, he goes into an UnstoppableRage and turns into a giant hairy monster. Throughout the episode, he and the rest of the team believed that he hurt Raven. [[spoiler:Actually, he was protecting her from a criminal who was also affected by the chemical.]]
* {{Keet}}: Kid's got a lot of energy.
* KidAppealCharacter: Clown type. He's always trying to be funny and is clearly the least mature, and he usually seems to be the weakest fighter on the team.
* KillerGorilla: When he needs a comparatively compact fighting form, he tends to go with the gorilla, although he's also taken on a surprisingly [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti Sasquatch-like]] form at least twice[[note]]in "Red X" and "Stranded"[[/note]].
* TheLancer: Lost this role to Cyborg as time went on, but in early episodes especially Beast Boy was the quickest to oppose Robin on an issue or doubt him.
* LetsGetDangerous: Since he can't speak while shifted (unlike in the comics), it comes across that when he's in his animal forms, the jokes are over and he means business. And by "business", we mean kicking your ass.
* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: He and Raven sometimes come off as this whenever they get into squabbles.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Raven thinks of Beast Boy as the annoying little brother she hates and adores at the same time, while Beast Boy thinks of her as the grumpy big sister he has to cheer up.
* LittleBitBeastly: If his pointed ears and protruding tusk aren't enough of an indication, the show briefly indicates he has claws and chimp-feet under his clothes.
* LockedIntoStrangeness: His green skin, hair, and eyes are a side effect of the serum that gave him his shape-changing abilities.
* LogicalWeakness: He inherits any biological limitations of the animals he turns into. Also, he can't turn into animals he's never seen or heard of before.
* LoveAtFirstSight: When he first met Terra, he became quite infatuated with her.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Beast Boy's more sensitive, free-spirited nature alongside Raven's more serious, tomboyish nature makes him the Feminine Boy to her Masculine Girl.
* MellowFellow: Often tends to be very laid back.
* MilitaryBrat: How the Doom Patrol, especially Mento, raised him. To the point that when he first met Robin, he recognized the other superhero as his superior and called him "sir" until Robin told him to stop.
* MomentKiller: He actually manages to ''kill his own moment'' with Raven by suggesting she call him "Beast Man." Raven even {{lampshade|Hanging}}s it.
* TheMovieBuff: He's a major fan of various movies, especially science fiction ones. In Control Freak's second episode, this provides him with a piece of trivia that enables him to turn Control Freak's TV-based powers against him, as he had picked up an obscure weakness in the process.
* MustMakeHerLaugh: He puts immense effort into getting Raven to smile.
* {{Mutants}}: Downplayed. Beast Boy never explicitly identified as one, but he matches the profile, what with his UnstableGeneticCode and superpowers.
* MysteriousPast: Unlike the other members of the Titans (who have had their origins and/or backstories either referred to or featured in flashbacks) and just like all of the other characters featured on the show, we never learn about the type of life Beast Boy had before joining both the Doom Patrol and the Titans along with how he received his powers in the first place.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
** Though understandably emotional, he makes the grave error of giving Terra a HeelFaceDoorSlam after learning that she betrayed them. He spends most of "Aftershock Part 1" agonizing over this decision and trying to make things right. He fails... at least until the next episode.
** He's also horrified in "The Beast Within" when the Titans accuse him of attacking Raven.
* NiceGuy: As in TheHeart, he likes to make his teammates happy. Even the practical jokes are in good fun he and he felt really bad about Starfire getting caught in the crossfire... even if it took him a while to actually [[AnAesop work up the apology]].
* NoNameGiven: Beast Boy's ferocious mutant form is never actually given a name beyond "that beast". (For what it's worth, the Cartoon Network episode guide calls it a Man-Beast).
* NoodleIncident: It's never revealed why he left the Doom Patrol, but it's heavily implied he got tired of Mento's brutal leadership.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** Anytime Beast Boy stops making jokes and acting ''dead'' serious, there's something ''big'' going on (i.e., dealing with Terra's betrayal, getting a distress message from the Doom Patrol).
** "The Beast Within" is a rather extreme example. After getting doused in unknown chemicals during a fight with Adonis and having a "good FreakOut", as Raven puts it, Beast Boy proceeds to [[TookALevelInJerkass Take a Level Or Two in Jerkass]], consume an entire plate of meat and eggs, rampage and wreck the gym twice, and attack Cyborg. He's in the middle of losing his temper with Raven for all her insults and her bad attitude and just short of attacking her too when the Titans confront him. At the end of ''that'' he leaves only having managed to convince the group that he's got a serious attitude problem that only Cyborg bothers to question; Robin merely tells him to take his attitude and buzz off. When he finally gets to his room, BB rampages through his room until he finally mutates into [[SuperpoweredEvilSide The Beast]]. Nobody actually acknowledges that he was NotHimself until the last two or three minutes of the episode.
* OutdatedName: When he debuted in 1965, "Garfield" was a perfectly acceptable name for a boy. Since the introduction of ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'', everyone [[JustForFun/OneMarioLimit associates it]] with the lazy orange tabby. This is why Beast Boy in the 2003 cartoon finds his name to be an EmbarrassingFirstName.
* PlatonicLifePartners: With Raven. She's probably the team member closest to him besides Cyborg, but they aren't in a relationship and really don't seem interested in being in one, although this is open to interpretation.
* PluckyComicRelief: He's often causing jokes or being the butt of one, like the mind control thing.
* PointyEars: Chicks dig 'em. Or at least they do in Japan.
* PopCulturedBadass: He can defeat villains while reciting pop culture or, in the case of Control Freak, do it ''with'' pop culture.
* ThePrankster: Has a love for playing practical jokes, which lands him in hot water in "Forces of Nature" when his attempt to get Cyborg back for pranking him accidentally hits Starfire instead.
* PteroSoarer: He frequently shifts into a Hollywood style pterodactyl (obviously modeled after a ''Pteranodon'', but refreshingly lacking a long tail). He appears to favor this form, possibly because it's more useful.
* RaptorAttack: He'll sometimes take the form of a dromaeosaurid, which resembles a scaly and oversized ''Velociraptor'' with quill-like feathers on the head and back. In "Switched", his possessed body took the form of another type of dromaeosaurid, which resembles an also scaly and oversized ''Deinonychus'' (no feathers, though).
* RealMenEatMeat: Inverted; while he sometimes tries to act especially tough, being able to turn into any animal, even carnivores, leaves him perceiving eating ''any'' meat as cannibalism. Funnily enough, in "The Beast Within", when some chemicals make him more aggressive, he says "real men don't eat tofu" and devours Robin's ham-and-eggs breakfast.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives one to Terra in "Aftershock Part 2" after she moans about having no choice but to help Slade.
--> '''Beast Boy:''' That's a lie! You've always had a choice! It's all been your choice! [[DealWithTheDevil You chose to work for Slade]], [[EtTuBrute you chose to betray us]], [[GrandTheftMe and now you've chosen to give him control]]. Slade isn't doing this, Terra, you are!
* SacrificedBasicSkillForAwesomeTraining: Very, very downplayed. Beast Boy's [[PlayfulHacker got the skills]] to penetrate Titans Tower security ([[MundaneUtility so he can figure out when Raven's birthday is]]) and to operate a Brotherhood of Evil ''black hole generator'' on the first try, and yet [[BookDumb he learned American history from the backside of a cereal box]].
* SadClown: He is an insecure and vulnerable kid who constantly uses humor as a defense mechanism.
* SarcasmBlind: He can be incredibly blind at Raven's and Cyborg's sarcastic remarks.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: It's not outright stated, but it's heavily implied that Beast Boy left the Doom Patrol because he had enough of Mento's abusive leadership.
* SecretIdentity: Averted. Aside from his name [[spoiler:Garfield Logan]], his secret identity is virtually non-existent due to his skin and hair pigmentation, a fact Raven points out when talking about his somewhat goofy looking mask.
-->'''Beast Boy:''' But... what about my secret identity?\\
'''Raven:''' [[BrutalHonesty What secret identity?]] You're ''[[LockedIntoStrangeness green]]''.
* ShapeshifterBaggage: Apparently he had something of a mental block due to assuming this. When he first started, he couldn't change into anything bigger than himself. It wasn't until Mento got him to ''think bigger'' that he could pull out something like a T-Rex.
* SidekickGlassCeiling: The episode "The Beast Within" lets {{Animorphism}}-powered Beast Boy get more Beast and less Boy. Even while it lasts, his suggestions that his name be changed to Beast Man fall on deaf ears.
-->'''Raven:''' We're [[GoldenMoment having a moment]] here, don't ruin it.\\
'''Beast Boy:''' ... Beast Dude?
* SmartBall: During his reunion mission with the Doom Patrol, he comes up with the plan to StormTheCastle entirely on his own, despite the mission team in question having been reduced to a meager two members from its original five.
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler:Singlehandedly foils the Brotherhood after they drove the Titans to the brink of destruction]].
* StatusQuoIsGod: Beast Boy is saddled with the most extreme case of this, as the writers were very unwilling to have him escape from his CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass baseline. Most of his serious episodes are ignored once they're over (such as when he was nearly [[MadeASlave Made a Pet]] or the entire debacle), but the biggest example is "The Beast Within" which is one of his [[FreakOut darkest]] [[TheCorruption experiences]] [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone in the entire show]], and he's made to end it by being silly and immature even to the point of MomentKiller.
* StrawVegetarian: Averted; despite being ''devoutly'' vegetarian and nearly vegan (he uses substitutes for dairy and eggs whenever he cooks, but frequently shares a cheese pizza with the other titans) and often pointing out that he only eats meat replacements, he is not hypocritical, preachy or really any of the stereotypes of this trope. In fact, whenever he offers his friends tofu, he takes their rejections in stride, and meat-loving Cyborg is his best friend.
* SuperPoweredEvilSide: Gains one in "The Beast Within," to an extent- the Beast (an homage to ''Film/AnAmericanWerewolfInLondon'', according to WordOfGod) is certainly his most powerful form, but isn't "evil" so much as amoral and uncontrollable- more like The ComicBook/IncredibleHulk than Raven's inner demon.
* TemptingFate: On several occasions and particularly likely to subvert a BadassBoast.
--> '''B.B.:''' That demented doofus is never hypnotizin' me again! ''(hypnoscreen pops out of a wall)'' Duuuuuuhhhh...
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tofu everything.
* UnknownRival: To the Brain in Season 5 -- he treats the Brain with almost as much seriousness as Robin does with Slade, but the Brain barely seems to know who he is. [[spoiler: This partly proves to be the Brain's undoing, as he greatly underestimates Beast Boy's capabilities when it comes to launching his master offensive, and Beast Boy is later able to lead an ambush on the villain base that results in the Brain's defeat.]]
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Raven. Their relationship goes like "{{Slap Slap|Kiss}} Support" (for Beast Boy) "Slap Slap Commiserate after Raven gets used as a pawn for ancient evil magic." (for Raven)
* VocalEvolution:
** In the episode "Go!", we get to see Beast Boy fresh from the Doom Patrol, and his voice starts out notably higher-pitched, almost nervously squeaky. The voice evens out over the rest of the episode into the usual tone Beast Boy has for the rest of the series. Notable in that this was an episode done late into the series as the origin story for how the Titans came together in the first place, technically making it an InvertedTrope that centers itself back out into being played straight.
** Beast Boy's voice was a bit deeper in early episodes.
* WellDoneSonGuy: To Mento. One of the reasons why he left the Doom Patrol is that his father-figure leader was too tough on him. Despite this, Beast Boy still shows a measure of reverence towards Mento, even after years of gaining his independence while being with the Teen Titans. This is most likely because Beast Boy still wishes for Mento to appreciate him for what he is.
* WhatDoTheyFearEpisode: In one of the comics. His greatest fear is the Doom Patrol fully disowning him.
* WillfullyWeak: Downplayed. Beast Boy has access to a ''lot'' of lethal powers that he doesn't use in a fight. Given his goofball disposition it can be easy to forget how deadly his powers actually are... [[LetsGetDangerous right up until he reminds you he can turn into lions, tigers, and bears]].
* TheWorfEffect: The guy that can ''turn into a T. rex'' is useful for demonstrating the power of villains when they smack him aside despite the power of this form. For reference, the ''T. rex'' weighs about nine tons. That's a whole lotta Worfing going on.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: The green hair is side-effect of the serum that made him into Beast Boy.
* YourSizeMayVary: While Beast Boy has always been the shortest of the Titans, exactly how short she is varies per episode. He's slightly shorter than Terra in a few scenes. However he's taller than Terra in others. He is also seen to be up to Raven's nose most of the time, but sometimes is only up to Raven's chin. Similarly, when Raven hugs Beast Boy in "Spellbound", they are the same height. This could be a result of his animal transformations, which may tamper with his body even after he returns to his humanoid state.

[[folder:Raven]]
!!Raven / Rachel Roth
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TaraStrong (English), Yuki Kodaira (Japanese), Anabella Silva (Latin American Spanish), Monica Bertolotti (IT), Karine Foviau (FR), Mariana Torres (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' Flight, [[MindOverMatter Telekinesis]], Teleportation, HealingHands, [[TheEmpath Empathy]], Magic
->''[[MagicalIncantation Azarath Metrion ZINTHOS!]]''

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/teentitans_raven.png]]

The half-human daughter of Arella Roth, a human woman who managed to find her way to the other dimension of Azarath/a native of Azarath (the show isn't clear) and Trigon the Terrible, a dread and powerful demon lord who intended to use Raven to open a portal that would allow him to enslave Earth. As a result of her race, Raven has powerful telepathic and psychokinetic abilities that are destabilized by her emotional level -- in other words, if she fails to keep her negative emotions (positive feelings are okay or else her friends would have been the source of about six Apocalypses throughout the show's run) tightly in check, her psychic power runs rampant, breaking and destroying her surroundings until she calms down. Presumably due to her birthplace, she is also versed in a wide variety of occult lore and a skilled practitioner of magic. She also has the power to astral project, dispatching her soul from her body to teleport herself or others, and to heal, though it's left unclear if these are PsychicPowers innate to her or mystical powers she has learned from her studies.

Because of her background and powers, Raven is a solitary, quiet individual who prefers to avoid interacting with others much, but displays a biting, acerbic wit and a love for sarcasm when she does.
----
* ActionGirl: Raven is one of the strongest members in the team.
* AdaptationDyeJob: Raven's hair was black in the comics (and ''very'' long). Here it is purple (and short).
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In the 1980s comics, Raven was genuinely TheStoic, always looked neutral, and rarely emoted. In the cartoon she is more witty and ''much'' more emotional, though she still keeps herself from being too emotional.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Depends on the version, but some depictions of comic Raven gave her long cheek bones and was overall much less attractive than how she appears in the show.
* AdaptationalBadass: In the comics, she can only simply teleport, heal other people, and sense other's feelings. Here, she can do more than that: Use telekinesis, she can fly, knows sorcery, etc.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Her comic book counterpart ''is'' a heroine, but has a bad habit of being in a HeelFaceRevolvingDoor due to Trigon taking over her on a regular basis. This incarnation still has issues with her darker side, but never actually turns evil over the course of the whole show (at her worst, she snaps and inflicts a MookHorrorShow to villains), and when she ''does'' help her father in his plan, it's more as a ''very'' [[ForcedIntoEvil reluctant pawn who has given up]] rather than as a gleeful traitor DrunkOnTheDarkSide.
* AdaptationalSkimpiness: A very minor example. With her blue dress being replaced by a leotard.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: While she does maintain her comic counterparts powers, in keeping with her AdaptationalBadass, she can fly, use telekinesis, and cast spells.
* AirplaneArms: Raven's pink emoticlone, embodying her happiness has a tendency of running like this.
* AllEncompassingMantle: That dark blue cloak of hers goes with her everywhere and hides her entire body. About the only time she takes it off is when she goes to bed.
* AnimalBattleAura: Has one in the form of a giant spectral bird.
* AnimalMotifs: Unsurprisingly, she's associated with ravens. A perfect fit and not just for their name--ravens are often associated with darkness, magic and being prophets of doom, fitting with Raven's darkness motif, ability to use magic and the fact that she was created to end the world.
* AntiAntichrist: Her dad wants her to help him end the world. She said 'no'.
* AntiHero: She may not be the most social person you'd come across, but she is most certainly heroic and on the side of good.
* TheAntiNihilist: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With]]. She's naturally distant and usually deems certain things pointless, but ultimately cares for the Titans and enjoys her time with them.
* ApocalypseMaiden: "The gem was born of evil's fire. The gem shall be his portal. He comes to claim; he comes to sire, the end of all things mortal." She's the gem.
* BadassBookworm: She studies magic tomes. This is where her fringe powers come from.
* BarrierMaiden: In Season 4 her will is all that's keeping Trigon out of the humans' dimension.
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: In season four, Raven is troubled by her destiny to destroy the world and, along with Slade and her father Trigon, repeatedly insists that no matter what she does, there's [[YouCantFightFate nothing she can do to prevent it]]. She fails to realize that the only way the prophecy can come true is if she willingly goes along with it, as the destruction of the world is completely dependent on the conscious actions she makes of her own free will.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: The main reason that she considers the team her friends and the only reason she opens up to them more than most people. They consider her a friend instead of a freak.
* BerserkButton:
** "No one should ''ever'' go into my room.”
** Harming her friends in any way. While it can be argued it's one for every member of the Titans, with Raven it can yield particularly cruel results should it be pushed. Best case scenario you’ll end up severely traumatized, worst case scenario you’ll end up dead, or nearly dead, as Dr. Light, Slade, and [[spoiler: Trigon]] all learned the hard way.
* BewareTheQuietOnes: Most of the time, she's usually reserved and sometimes snarky. But if she's genuinely pissed off, our only advice is this: '''''[[OhCrap Run.]] [[UnstoppableRage For.]] [[CurbStompBattle Your.]] [[PrecisionFStrike Fucking.]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Life.]]'''''
** She strikes fear into some of the most powerful villains. Even Slade. She might just be the biggest badass of the group. [[spoiler: When Trigon took on all other titans and Slade, Raven ''destroys'' him without the need of any effort.]]
* BiggerOnTheInside: Her cloak, to an extent. She was able to drag Dr. Light into it, and he came out traumatized. She probably created a portal hidden in her cloak and sent him to another dimension.
* BirthmarkOfDestiny: Long and creepy looking red ones that form demonic script all over her body. They're a sign that Trigon is coming to fulfill her destiny.
* BoundAndGagged: If Raven is gagged, she cannot connect with her powers as they are dependent on her incantation, "Azarath Metrion Zinthos". As Red X, Robin incapacitates Raven by gagging her with a large adhesive 'X'.
* BreakoutCharacter: Raven's breakout popularity on the show has affected how she is written in the comic, with the intent of bringing her closer in line with Tara Strong's portrayal.
* BrokenBird: The nature of her birth and childhood have left her with a lot of sorrow and little self-esteem. She gradually opens up in the last two seasons.
* CarFu: Raven has a tendency to use her telekinesis to throw cars and trucks at enemies.
* CastingAShadow: She can manipulate dark energy, which plays part of her DarkIsNotEvil motif. It can then [[SwissArmySuperpower extend to a variety of other effects]] such as telekinesis, teleportation, shields, portal generation, interdimensional travel .etc
* CatchPhrase: "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!" is the {{Invocation}} for her powers so she says it a lot.
* CatchphraseInterruptus: There are several occasions where she gets caught short.
* ClothingDamage: During her MindRape with Slade, he ripped up her leotard to exposes her BirthmarkOfDestiny. As much as it was creepy, it looked as though she was in a bra and underwear.
* CharacterDevelopment: Here's a big indicator of how far she's gone. In the earlier episodes, she's seen with her hood up nearly all of the time, even when she's with her friends. As the seasons go by, she wears it less and less.
* ChildByRape: Downplayed, considering this show is for children. Her mother was manipulated into concieving her by Trigon in a human disguise, which is a very fantastical type of rape.
* CombatMedic: Raven is revealed to have healing powers, thus giving her this role.
--> '''Beast Boy''': Who knew we had a doctor in the house?
* TheComicallySerious: Because she tends to have a stoic demeanor, she sometimes provides humorous moments through her snarky remarks and expressing annoyance at Starfire's exuberance.
* CompositeCharacter:
** She has her comic book counterpart's powers and backstory in addition to taking [[ComicBook/WonderGirl Donna Troy's]] role as Starfire's HeterosexualLifePartner.
** Furthermore, she also has elements of Danny Chase, inheriting his telekinesis abilities as well as his [[DeadpanSnarker snarky, rude personality]] (albeit not quite to the extent he was).
* ContraltoOfDanger: Has a low, rumbling voice. Creator/TaraStrong mentioned in an interview that her inspiration for the voice was Tangina Barrons from ''Film/{{Poltergeist|1982}}''.
* CreepyGood: There have been several instances where she has been openly called "creepy" by others, especially Beast Boy. However she remains firmly aligned to good. Beast Boy also helps her see that there is nothing wrong with being creepy, and the important thing was she wasn't alone.
* CreepyMonotone: Her stoicism comes across as this due to her demonic image.
* CrossPoppingVeins: Happens very frequently with her, especially when being annoyed by Beast Boy.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Both of them a purple/indigo color.
* DaddysGirl: Invoked by Trigon himself, but greatly defied by her. Trigon mockingly calls her 'dear daughter', but Raven hates him and [[AntiAntiChrist refuses to submit to the destiny she has been bestowed upon]].
* DangerousSixteenthBirthday: TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt could happen on her birthday. She spends this one staring at a clock and willing it forwards.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Having to live your whole life knowing [[TheAntiChrist you'll bring about the world's end is very troubling]].
* DarkIsNotEvil: She dresses in dark clothing, her powers are tinted black and she's half demon, but she's not evil. She's the polar opposite to LightIsNotGood. See Dr. Light.
* DarkMagicalGirl: A lonely girl with father-angst that develops a close friendship with a sunny and perky girl. Even their powers are {{foil}}s; Starfire uses her powers through fully embracing her emotions while Raven has to suppress her to keep them under control.
* DeadpanSnarker: There is plenty to snark at in Titans Tower, such as Beast Boy's "fake meat" and Robin's attempts to stop yelling with ''more yelling''. This is even more accentuated in the Venezuelan Spanish dub, as her voice actress struggled to get her charaterization right at first.
* DeathGlare: Raven's glares will make you [[BowelBreakingBricks crap bricks]].
* DefrostingIceQueen: For a good part of season 1, she's always seen with her hood up. As her defrosting progresses, she starts having her hood down not only amongst the Titans, but often when she's alone in public as well.
* DislikesTheNewGuy: Instantly suspicious of Terra joining as a SixthRanger. After a FireForgedFriends outing she finally warms up to her. It's relatively short lived as Terra turns out to be a mole after all. Second to only Beast Boy, who had a crush on her, Raven is the most hurt by Terra's betrayal after going through a whirlwind of emotions with her.
* TheDreaded: Mostly to Dr. Light, as part of a running gag. She has also managed to do this with Slade and all the other members of Teen Titans at some point, and it's enough to know that ''they'' fear her.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: She's pale as a ghost and half-demon.
* EmotionlessGirl: Subverted. She certainly ''has'' emotions and very powerful ones, but she has to keep them repressed to control her powers.
-->'''Raven''': Maybe you haven't noticed, but my emotions are dangerous. I can't afford to feel ''anything''.
* EmotionSuppression: Raven has to constantly suppress her emotions lest she lose control of her powers completely. Hence the meditation.
* FaceFramedInShadow: When wearing her hood, her face above the mouth is completely cast in shadow with only her eyes left visible.
* FatalFlaw: Her reluctance to open up to others. Her tendency to clamp down on her own emotions means that she won't confide in them when something's bothering her and that [[InnocentlyInsensitive well meaning actions can set her off rather badly]].
* {{Foil}} Raven and Terra have a unique dynamic going on if you take the entire series into account. Both are young female teen superheroes with PowerIncontinence issues and [[HeroWithBadPublicity public image problems]] -- Raven due to her half-demon nature making her come off as CreepyGood and her prophesied role to end the world, Terra due to [[DestructiveSavior the massive damage she leaves in her wake]]. However, their reactions to this issue are mirror images of each other. Raven ''accepts'' her flaws and works to overcome them; she works tirelessly to bring her powers under control and strives to be a hero in hopes of making up for the evil in her blood. Terra, on the other hand, ''runs away'' from her problems, both literally and metaphorically, by blaming others, making excuses for herself, and wallowing in self-pity. Whereas Raven constantly meditates and represses herself to establish her control, Terra fell in with Slade because he promised a quick and easy way for her to get the control she always wanted. Raven is incredibly loyal to her teammates, who she is implieds to view as a surrogate family, whilst Terra happily betrayed the Titans to Slade in exchange for his "help". [[spoiler:If you believe the Terra look-alike from "Things Change" is the real deal, the end of their resepctive character arcs further highlights their similarities and differences. Both hit the DespairEventHorizon, but Raven claws her way back from it, with a little encouragement from her friends, and continues fighting crime, whilst Terra ''literally'' declares ThatManIsDead and turns her back on her powers so she can enjoy a normal life.]]
* FountainOfYouth: She regresses to a child in "The End Part 2" while she's in the underworld.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Alternates between Melancholic and Phlegmatic. She is mainly Melancholic early in the series where she shut everyone out and kept to herself. As she [[DefrostingTheIceQueen warms up]] to her friends she switches to Phlegmatic, albeit still being quiet and shy.
* FreudianExcuse: Her destiny to bring about the end of the world and her emotion-based powers both make her extremely afraid of being a danger to others. As a result, she keeps a tight rein on her feelings and keeps people at a distance.
* GhostInTheMachine: The episode "Nevermore", with [[ColourCodedForYourConvenience color coding for your convenience]] - the pink, giggly Raven, the grey, shy and apologetic Raven and the green, energetic, CuteBruiser Raven. In a later shot, there are also brown, orange and yellow versions, which combine to form a white Raven, and when her inner demon is defeated it turns into a red Raven.
* GlassCannon: She is arguably the most powerful member of the Titans overall, as her SwissArmySuperpower has undoubtedly the most destructive capability and creative ways to be used. Case in point; she was able to defeat Trigon by herself, who the other Titans couldn't handle together. However, she's the only Titan without Super Strength (or a CharlesAtlasSuperpower in Robin's case), and she can't take quite as much punishment as them either.
* GoodIsNotNice: She's just as heroic as the other titans, but not very sociable. In addition she can also be very brutal and ruthless towards her enemies, though this is usually only when she has been pushed. She’s also come the closest to breaking ThouShallNotKill, or actually has broken it, [[spoiler: if one believes she actually did kill Trigon at the end of Season 4]].
* {{Goth}}: Presented as a bit of a character gimmick for her in the early episodes (most noticeably "Sisters" where she compliments Blackfire's poetry as "surprisingly dark"), then later downplayed.
* GothGirlsKnowMagic: She fits the typical traits of a {{Goth}} with her reclusiveness and taste in dark things in general, and can use demonic and magical spells.
* HadesShaded: She has a light gray skin tone, fitting the series' aesthetic of giving dark/Gothic characters skin tones in varying shades of gray.
* HalfHumanHybrid: Her mother was human and her dad's a demon lord.
* HatesBeingTouched: If it's from [[TheDreaded Slade]] but slowly grows out of it for everybody else.
* HatesEveryoneEqually: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Lampshaded in "Titans Rising", in which Beast Boy then explains that she eventually gets used to the people she meets, in this situation, Terra.
* {{Hellgate}}: She is the "gem" through which Trigon and his legions of demons will leave their dimension and enter Earth.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Forms a close bond with Starfire, despite their differing personalities. 'Switched' was the key episode in which they bonded.
* HiddenDepths: During Cyborg and Beast Boy's [[JourneyToTheCenterOfTheMind field trip into her mind]], they discover that she's got a lot going on under the surface.
** She actually thinks Beast Boy is hilarious. But she also secretly suspects that he doesn't like her.
** She has a ''huge'' amount of repressed anger at her father, to the point where she goes into a homicidal rage when it slips out.
** She gets a huge kick out of battle, approaching BloodKnight levels.
* HumanMomNonhumanDad: As noted above, her mom is human and her dad is a demon.
* HumanoidAbomination: Her demonic heritage manifests as four glowing red eyes and shadowy tentacles growing from underneath her robe.
* InTheHood: Her mantle has a hood to hide herself further.
* {{Intangibility}}: She can phase though objects like solid walls.
* InterspeciesRomance: Had a short-lived one with the dragon-disguised-as-a-mage Malchior. However, she didn't know he was a dragon and he was just using her to be released from the book.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She'll snark like no tomorrow, but there's no doubt that she'll do the right thing. Later, she even opens up to her friends more and even calls them family.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: She's aloof and WiseBeyondHerYears, and uses spells both demonic and magical in nature.
* LeotardOfPower: This is a change from the comics version, who's a bit older. The animators changed her dress with long, narrow skirt to a leotard to avoid getting too... revealing in action poses with a teen character.
* LethalChef: In "The End, Part I" she tries to make the Titans' breakfast. [[BizarreTasteInFood Starfire]] is the only one who nejoys it.
* LevitatingLotusPosition: She does this when mediating because it helps her regulate her powers.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Raven and Beast Boy act a lot like a grumpy big sister and her annoying little brother.
* LonersAreFreaks: She thought this of herself in the origin episode, "Go!". Cyborg responded appropriately:
--> '''Cyborg''': He's [Beast Boy] green, half of me is metal, and she's [Starfire] from space; you fit in just fine.
** The quote serves as a MythologyGag, because in the first issue of ''The New Teen Titans'' (by Marv Wolfman/George Perez in 1980), when we're first introduced to Cyborg and Raven, we get this exchange...
--->'''Cyborg''': [The coach] said I don't belong here anymore. Then where in blazes ''do'' I belong?\\
'''Raven''': With ''me,'' Victor Stone. With others of your kind.
* LonerTurnedFriend: She was a lone wanderer before she settled into Titans Tower.
* MagicalAccessory: The PowerCrystal on her forehead which is a chakra jewel. According to WordOfGod, she was born with it.
* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: In "Masks" when her mouth is duct taped shut, Cyborg grabs on to the edge and pulls. Starfire and Beast Boy cringe awaiting for Raven's response. After a delayed moment, in which spectral images of Raven are shown howling in pain, she ultimate resonds with a very soft "Ow."
* MamaBear: For Melvin, Timmy, and Teether. She wrecked the abductors who messed with "her kids".
* MarkedChange: In the form of her cloak turning white.
* MindRape:
** Victim of Slade who caused her all manner of mental trauma when he returned as her dad's messenger.
** ''Perpetrator'' against Dr. Light. As a ContinuityNod, the first time he reappears, all she has to say is 'remember me?' when he causes trouble and he'll volunteer to go back to prison. Though he apparently gets over it off-screen, as he shows no such sign of being scared of her in his fifth-season appearances.
* MissingMom: Zigzagged. When Raven sought her advice to deal with the prophecy, all she had to do was create a portal and go home. She talked with her mother there but it turned out be an illusion. Arella died when Azarath burned, years ago. Then in the story ''Red Raven'', Raven seeks her out again in a restored Azarath.
* MostCommonSuperpower: Her Skin tight leotard showcases that she is quite buxom. At times her bust seems to be larger than Starfire's.
* MundaneUtility: In "Haunted", she demonstrates that she can use her AnimalBattleAura as an umbrella.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Her list of one-off powers is quite extensive. As are all the times they would have come in handy had she remembered she had them. This is lampshaded in the TrappedInTVLand episode; "Blue Zinthos; what you need, when you need it".
* NightmareFetishist: She collects some creepy-looking things in her room, though presumably these are magic-based;
** "Fear Itself" has her wake up from a nightmare and note she should consider redecorating.
** In "Larry", she finds the world redecorated by a RealityWarper Johnny Rancid to be "cool".
* NotSoAboveItAll: As part of her CharacterDevelopment, she becomes more willing to stoop to the juvenile antics of the other Titans.
** At the end of the episode featuring Malchior, she decides to get involved in a game of "Stankball", using her MindOverMatter to mercilessly pummel Cyborg (off-screen) with a gross ball of stinky old socks.
** After Cyborg's stint as TheMole in the third season, she's an active participant in making him redo his humiliating Titans initiation.
** In "The Quest", she joins the other Titans in dressing up in Robin's spare costumes.
** While their canonical connection is dubious, the "New Teen Titans" comedy shorts take this to the extreme in the episode "The BurpingContest" where, after initially being grossed out, an irritated Raven uses her powers to create a [[GassHole city-shaking belch]] that leaves the other Titans covered in soot after even Starfire joins in the titular contest.
** In "Homecoming," she positively relishes the thought of being able to tease Beast Boy no end over his EmbarrassingFirstName (Garfield).
* OddFriendship: She and Robin gain an oddly close relationship starting with season 3's ''Haunted'', when Raven has to mentally possess Robin, causing her to see all of his memories. In a sense, after this she understands him better than anyone else on the team, and a season later, he embarks on an solo trip (initially, [[spoiler:Slade]] joins up too) into the underworld to save her after [[spoiler:her father Trigon]] has been summoned into the world.
* {{Omniglot}}: In ''Trouble in Tokyo'' she listed off a series of languages that she was fluent in. She did this because ''Japanese'' isn't one of them.
* OnlySaneWoman: When put alongside the likes of immature Beast Boy and Cyborg, and [[AmusingAlien ignorant]] Starfire, she's frequently put in this role.
* PeoplePuppets: Raven can telekinetically seize control of her enemies' bodies and make them move against their will, though she noticeably refrains from doing so for most of the series. In "The Prophecy", when Trigon and Slade push her too far, she uses her power to repeatedly smash the latter against a wall, torturing him while he is helpless to do anything about it, and only stops when she realizes her own friends are shocked by her rage.
* PerpetualFrowner: It appears she actually has difficulty smiling, as shown by her attempt in "The End - Part 1" that results in a creepy CheshireCatGri, to the point that when she does, that they're a sign of impending doom and she's trying to make everyone's last moments together pleasant.
* PlatonicLifePartners: She is very close to Robin (the two of them have a psychic link as of "Haunted" and season 4 focuses heavily on their relationship), but isn't in a romantic relationship with him. A bit more blatant with Beast Boy, despite the occasional ShipTease.
* PowerIncontinence: She can manage to keep her powers under control when she's in control of her emotions. When her emotions are unstable, she has to struggle to her powers in check.
* PowerMakesYourHairGrow: In "Birthmark" and the final part of "The End", she reaches into greater power than usual and her hair grows as a result. On both occasions, she cuts it.
* PrettyInMink: Her winter wear is trimmed with white fur.
* TheQuietOne: She sometimes speaks less than ten lines in a couple of episodes.
* ReiAyanamiExpy: Although the character of Raven from the comics came at least 15 years before Rei Ayanami, it's pretty clear this animated {{Animesque}} incarnation of the character follows the archetype. Quiet and seemingly emotionless? Check. Bobbed bluish hair? Check. Pale? Check. Created by her dad to cause an apocalypse? Check.
* TheResenter: Initially, Raven appears to be this character in regards to Terra -- angry that Terra has apparently managed to control her powers so easily, while Raven still must meditate constantly to keep hers in check. However, since [[spoiler:it turns out that Terra got her control from working with Titans' ArchEnemy Slade, the resentment turned out to be reasonable suspicion]].
* ScrewDestiny: Robin points it out to her when she's having a moment of doubt: despite being raised with the notion that she was evil and would cause an apocalypse she decided to be a super hero.
* SelfMadeOrphan: She ''destroys'' Trigon at the end of the fourth season, and he's never seen again since then.
* ShesGotLegs: Her regular outfit is a legless leotard. Several shots of the show emphasize them.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: The first guy she seemed romantically interested in was a heroic sorcerer who was quite nice and supportive to Raven. [[spoiler: Too bad he was actually an evil dragon.]]
* {{The Smart G|uy}}al: When it comes to magic, she has the expertise. Multiple episoes also shown her to be very skilled with computers and she's generally quite bookish.
* TheSnarkKnight: She's not very social and dishes out snide remarks about all her teammates.
* SourOutsideSadInside: On the surface she's a stoic snarker. Beneath the surface, she's a lonely and fearful girl with DaddyIssues.
* SquishyWizard: Not hugely squishy -- she has some martial arts moves -- but she's still the most fragile of the Titans in direct physical combat (barring Beast Boy's base form, which he doesn't fight in anyway) and tends to hang back to cast magic rather than jumping into the thick of things.
* StepfordSnarker: She's even snippier than usual when upset.
* TheStoic: Reluctantly, on her part. It's necessary to keep her powers under control.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: With her mother.
* StylishProtectionGear: Her fur-trimmed winter wear.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: The poster girl for the UsefulNotes/AnimeFanSpeak term {{Kuudere}}. She acts coldly towards everyone, partly due to attachment issues but mostly because her powers are tied to her emotions, and if she doesn't keep iron control over them at all times, she could get a dangerous case of PowerIncontinence. However, she's willing to go to almost any lengths for her friends, and we occasionally see glimpses of her softer side. Also a rare case of one ''doubling'' as a {{Tsundere}}.
* SupernaturalFloatingHair: Visible in rare instances when she's using her powers and her hood is down.
* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Raven's immensely powerful, frightening, demonic side. Fortunately, it only slips out a handful of times.
* SwissArmySuperpower: Demonic heritage and magic from tomes have a wide range of uses.
* TalkingIsAFreeAction: Subverted as often as it's played straight; she actually ''has'' been hit several times in the middle of reciting one of her spells.
* TeacherStudentRomance: Falls for Malchior, who teaches her all kinds of new magic.
* TechnicolorEyes: She has these eyes when they aren't glowing black from Psychic Powers or red from demonic rage. This is the baseline because PurpleIsPowerful.
* TerrorHero: She ordinarily stays emotionally detached while fighting evil. If her control slips, you may still see a hero, but you'll ''definitely'' see some terror.
* ThroughHisStomach: In "The End", she tries to do something nice for her friends by making them breakfast. Unfortunately, she's a LethalChef. Starfire is the only team member to enjoy it, and Starfire is the one who cooks dishes that involve cultivating fungus.
* TokenWizard: Raven is the only member of the team whose powers are arcane in nature, possessing a modicum of magical knowledge from her upbringing.
* TookALevelInKindness: She becomes more open and friendly in the episodes after ''The End''.
* TownGirls: The Neither to Starfire's Femme and Terra's Butch. She isn't even remotely girly, but at the same time she doesn't act that masculine.
* {{Tsundere}}: When her emotions are more visible, she's actually more like this than {{Kuudere}}. She lacks a lot of the blushing or the sideways glances, or any of the typical stuttering, so it's hard to notice at first.
* TheUglyGuysHotDaughter: More specifically, she's the daughter of [[{{Satan}} Trigon]], a giant red demon with horns.
* TheUnsmile: Once in "The End." She has little practice with such things so it looked odd.
* VaporWear: When she has most of her clothes torn off in "Birthmark," there isn't a bra to be seen. This is TruthInTelevision; wearing a bra with a leotard would be redundant, as they're made to cover the "underwear" aspects that would otherwise be unseemly in a skintight outfit.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Beast Boy. Their relationship goes like "{{Slap Slap|Kiss}} Support" and "Slap Slap Commiserate post-after an evil magician tries to use Raven as a pawn."
* VocalEvolution: She originally had a higher pitched voice.
* WhatDoTheyFearEpisode: In one of the comics. Her greatest fear is her and the Titans' triumph over her father [[FightingAShadow not sticking]] and becoming a portal for him again.
* WhenSheSmiles: She doesn't smile often as a way of self-control, but when she does, it's truly heartwarming.
* WillfullyWeak: In terms of raw power, Raven has the potential to be more powerful than all of the other Titans combined. However, she is [[AntiAntiChrist (with very good reason)]] wary of using her powers to their fullest extent.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: A rare non-villainous example. She is a literal case of the trope name, as the reason for her birth is [[spoiler: to let Trigon onto Earth and destroy it, something which eventually happens in season 4]].
* WrenchWench: It's easy to miss, as it only came up once, but still she helped Cyborg repair the T Car.
* YouCantFightFate: Her attitude for most of Season 4. [[spoiler: As much as she'd ''love'' to ignore her father's plan to bring about TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt, she genuinely believes that she's powerless to stop it. [[DefiedTrope At least,]] [[ScrewDestiny until the ending.]] ]]
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Purple hair, for some reason. Since her mother has the same shade, one can't blame demonic blood for this.
* YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry: The reason she forces herself to be an EmotionlessGirl is that her anger makes her demon half come out.

[[quoteright:244:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/teentitans_cyborg.png]]

As a teenager, Cyborg was hideously mutilated in a car accident. Fortunately, his parents were foremost experts in cybernetic enhancements, so they integrated their son with a variety of advanced robotic components in order to save his life. For quite some time afterward, he was despondent about his change, and even in the series he remains somewhat unhappy with the loss of his normal life. But he retains a strong zest for life and devotes himself to making the best of his situation, to the extent he usually appears much happier than Robin does. As a cybernetically augmented human, Cyborg has several built in weapons (mainly a sonic cannon), the general resilience you'd expect of someone who's only partly squishy flesh and covered in armor, and super strength, as well as a considerable IQ that he puts to use as a GadgeteerGenius.
----
* AcademicAthlete: He played football in high school and is also the smartest of the Teen Titans.
* AchillesPowerCord: In a BadFuture where the titans ended up splitting. Cyborg was the only one who stayed on the tower because he had long since burned up all of his internal batteries, so he had to be constantly plugged to a large machine to keep functioning, and couldn't go anywhere. He repairs them at the end of the episode, and Starfire returns to her time, possibly preventing said future from happening in the first place.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: He is more easygoing than his comic book counterpart.
* AesopAmnesia: Most of Cyborg's episodes revolve around him accepting, again and again, that he's human, though from different perspectives (not being robotic enough, not being human enough, etc.).
* AmazonChaser: In "Cyborg the Barbarian", he falls in love with warrior NubileSavage Sarasim.
* AnatomyArsenal: He has an ArmCannon, a Boot Cannon and a ShoulderCannon.
* ArtificialLimbs: Almost his entire body is mechanical, with only a bit of his arm and part of his face left.[[note]]And one episode shows the "bits" of his arms are actually flesh-colored prosthetics; he casually pops one out to challenge Raven to a game of ball WithMyHandsTied.[[/note]] Even his brain has been partly modified, though not enough to cause any real damage.
* ArtisticLicensePhysics: The character has always had this, considering his main weapon is a sonic cannon. Once you know [[http://www.makeitlouder.com/Decibel%20Level%20Chart.txt exactly what sound can do at a certain decibel ranges]], you realize anything hit directly by Cyborg's sonic cannon should be a steaming pile of goo... surrounded by the goo from all the things he hasn't hit directly.
* BadassBoast: "It's not ''in'' the circuitry, is it? It's not the ''machine'' that resists you. It's ''me''. My ''spirit!'' ''That's the part you can't break!'' I don't ''need'' you to ''make'' me a man. ''I already AM one!''"
* BaldBlackLeaderGuy: During his days at Titans East, or whenever Robin is AWOL for whatever reason.
* BaldOfAwesome: Part of his skull is his robotic dome.
* BelligerentSexualTension: He often got into quarrels with Bumblebee that implied a denied attraction to her.
* BerserkButton: ''Don't'' steal his blueprints and the use his technology for your own reasons.
* TheBigGuy: He'd be big for his age even without the cybernetics, and consequently he's usually depicted as the Titans' powerhouse. However, though he fulfills the role, he's more typically portrayed as TheLancer, Beast Boy is the most likely to just rely on raw physical force, and his relative strength compared to Starfire is ''heavily'' DependingOnTheWriter.
* BigEater: Nearly put an all-you-can-eat sushi bar out of business. Does he have a second stomach installed or something?
--> '''Cyborg''': We just saved the whole dang universe! Who wants French toast??
** [[ExaggeratedTrope Exaggerated]] in the episode "Crash", when he gets infected with a nasty computer virus and starts running around eating [[ExtremeOmnivore everything from clothing to money to a]] [[UpToEleven TELEPHONE!]]
--> '''Cyborg''': "My stomach! Feels like I ate a tire!"
--> '''Raven''': "That's a distinct possibility."
* BlackAndNerdy: He's the one the Titans turn to when dealing with machinery or computers.
* BlueIsHeroic: His cybernetics always glow blue.
* BoisterousBruiser: Big, all around fun guy to hang out with, and how can he be not with a CatchPhrase like below, said about ''28.5'' times [[note]]The half point was because he said "MOO-YAH!" instead[[/note]] throughout all seasons.
* {{Brainwashed}}: Depending on the situation, he was shown to have immunity to being brainwashed, most notable, is complete immune, to Brother Blood brainwashing powers, fueling the villain's obsession with him.
* CatchPhrase: BOOYAH!
* ChekhovsSkill: The aforementioned [[TrickedOutShoes rocket in his shoe]], when used against Brother Blood in "Titans East, Part 1".
* ChickMagnet: He manages to attract several girls: Jinx, Sarasim and has a mild ShipTease with Bumble Bee.
* {{Cyborg}}: Obviously; "Half of me is metal". His body is mostly mechanical but there's still some skin and (presumably) organs in there. His brain is stated to be half grey matter and half [=CPU=].
* CompetitionFreak: When challenged he can be considerably competitive and lose sight of reason when pushed enough, actually presented as a major character flaw when it causes him to quit the Titans when his leadership skills are challenged and become overzealous when fighting elusive criminals.
* CursedWithAwesome: His enhancements, of course. Deep down he wants more than anything to just be human again; But, of course, he wouldn't be who he is today without his cybernetics. Aside from the powers he's been granted, it also helps him in other ways; he's ImmuneToMindControl because half of his brain is electronic.
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: [[AvertedTrope Averted]]. Even though half of his brain ''has'' been modified, he completely retained his humanity.
* DatingCatwoman: Briefly went out with Jinx while infiltrating the HIVE. She thought he was the super villain "Stone" at the time.
* DeadpanSnarker: Probably the snarkiest member of the team besides Raven but the deadpan part is absent. He's far too high energy.
* DoAnythingRobot: His bionic enhancements have included quite a lot of gadgetry, most notably the sonic cannons in his arms and a radio system in his ear.
* DrunkOnMilk: In the episode Car Trouble. "Fourteen milkshakes. Not a good sign..."
* EyeLightsOut: Everytime Cyborg is about to lose conscience or is severely damaged, his glowing eye will fade, along with the blue lights on mechanical parts.
* FakeDefector: Turns out Cyborg is resistant to MindControl, and Brother Blood had no idea.
* FatalFlaw: He actually has two: first, his over-reliance on technology makes underrate his human half; second, his pride makes him unwilling to listen to his friends and lash out at them when he feels humiliated or unfairly challenged. Several story arcs are devoted to him getting over both of these.
* FeelNoPain: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. It's implied that he doesn't exactly have feeling in most of his body. Upon Brother Blood transforming his arm back into flesh, Cyborg notes that he could actually feel his arm.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Unintentionally. At the end of "Titans East, Part 1" he decides to leave the Titans in order to lead Titans East. As of now, he is the only main Titan in this show who is no longer a Titan in the comics,[[note]]While Dick Grayson is no longer a Teen Titan, he now leads a new team simply called the "Titans" while current Robin Damian Wayne leads the Teen Titans.[[/note]] having been made a member of the Justice League by the advent of the New 52.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: He alternates between Choleric and Melancholic. As the NumberTwo second-in-command, Cyborg is also quite task oriented, but is quite open to his friends. He however goes through phases of Melancholic during his struggles with losing his humanity.
* FreakinessShame: In "Go!", it's shown that Cyborg was extremely ashamed of having to become a cyborg after an accident. However, Beast Boy thought it was cool.
* FunPersonified: When he's not busy being a badass, Cyborg is always up for food, sports, and fun of all kinds. Especially prominent around comic-relief partner Beast Boy.
* TheGadfly: He enjoys teasing Robin about Starfire.
* GadgeteerGenius: He handles and creates just about all the Titans' technology, including a tricked-out car and a top-tier security system for the Titans Tower itself.
* GeniusBruiser: Not only is he a physically strong cyborg with arm cannons, he's also the Titans' mechanic and IT guy.
* GenreSavvy: 'You start messing with the past, you end up with [[Franchise/PlanetOfTheApes monkeys ruling the future.]]'
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: He sustains more graphic damage than any of the other Titans partly because of this and partly because said damage is G or PG rated due to his mechanical nature. He's also the only Titan to suffer realistic dismemberment.
* HeroicRROD: Overusing his cyborg abilities isn't pretty. It can lead to PowerStrainBlackOut or acting like a true robot (without emotions).
* HotBlooded: "BOOOYAH!" followed by running forward and arm cannons blasting.
* HumansAreSpecial: Despite being a cyborg, he exemplifies this in some ways: When he fights with Atlas, it's his humanity that allows him to push past his theoretical limits and win. Furthermore, when Brother Blood tries to brainwash him, it's the human being in him and not the machine that enables him to resist.
* IAmAMonster: Before he met the other Titans, he believed that his cybernetics made him a freak.
* IAmNotLeftHanded: Though it's never explicitly pointed out, he can form his Sonic Cannon from either arm, and in extreme cases both arms at once. He just prefers to use the right, because he's right-handed.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: Becoming a cyborg put the kabosh on a normal childhood and he misses the chance. It's seen best when he infiltrated the H.I.V.E and got the chance to experience relatively "normal" high school stuff.
* ImmuneToMindControl: Cyborg can't be controlled by Brother Blood because half of his brain is electronic. Or so he thought. Brother Blood then tried to hack Cyborg and ''still'' couldn't control him. Turns out he wasn't immune because of his electronics; [[HeroicWillpower he simply has too much willpower.]]
* InnocentlyInsensitive: He calls Starfire "Troq" after she told him it meant "nothing" (without explaining that it meant "nothing" as in "worthless"), meaning he didn't realize how hurtful it was.
* IronButtMonkey: He's known for taking a TON of punishment in fights and is commonly seen getting thrown, torn to pieces, and smashed by the bad guy at the moment, but usually just gets back up and continues to fight. This is actually weaponized more than once as his endurance usually allows him to withstand much more punishment than the other Titans.
* ItsPersonal: Originally Brother Blood was just another villain for the Titans to fight. Then Brother Blood hacked into him and stole and duplicated his technology for his own nefarious plans, then it became ''very'' personal for Cyborg. On Blood's part not only is Cyborg responsible for destroying his academy ''twice'' but Cyborg is also immune to his mind control powers, which drives Blood insane.
* JustAMachine: Most of his inner conflicts come from the fact he is part robot.
* TheLancer: He's taller, darker, and more laid-back to contrast Robin's serious-as-a-heart-attack demeanor. He's also the NumberTwo.
* LossOfIdentity: His main fear is becoming full machine, and losing who he is. Cyborg even has some episodes revolving around overcoming this fear.
* MakeSomeNoise: His main weapon is his sonic cannon.
* MeaningfulName: Cyborg's cover identity when he infiltrates the H.I.V.E. Academy: Stone. This is more of a nod towards Cyborg's real name Victor Stone. Also, his name is a ShoutOut to Victor Frankenstein (in German, "Frankenstein" means "Stone of the Franks").
* MindRape: Not as bad as most examples, but even Cyborg takes his turn when Fixit tries to "fix" him.
* MissingMom: Indirectly mentioned in "The End: Part II", when the [[EnemyWithout evil inner Cyborg]] asks if his good counterpart will run crying to mommy. "Oh, that's right- you don't have a mommy!". A horrible incident caused the death of Cyborg's mother, drawing from a narrative of the original ''Teen Titans'' comic.
* TheMole: Infilatrates in the HIVE Academy, as Victor Stone- the villain, to take down Brother Blood and stop his evil plans.
* MomentKiller: Cyborg interrupts intimate moments between BB/Raven and Robin/Starfire so often, to the point of becoming a RunningGag.
* NiceGuy: While he can be sometimes impulsive, he is more a straight up nice guy than a JerkWithAHeartOfGold. He is friendly, caring, fun-loving and very heroic. He also acts like a big-brother figure for the rest of the titans, especially the girls.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: Robin is initially worried about Cyborg's attitude towards Brother Blood since he of course had the same experience with obsession regarding Slade. By the end however, he allows Cyborg to take command since he knows Brother Blood better.
* NumberTwo: Though it's never officially stated, Cyborg is often considered the second in command of the team, and is always the first to take the lead when Robin is MIA or unable to take the lead.
* OddFriendship: With Beastboy, who is Cyborg's best friend.
* OneManArmy: Not as pronounced as Robin, but thanks to his AnatomyArsenal he can dish take a lot of punishment, while dishing out a similar amount. In "The End - Part 1" he hooks himself to the tower generators and annihilates an entire army of fire demons.
* OnlySaneMan: Whenever Robin becomes too obsessed with something, Cyborg usually calls him out on his irrational behavior, acting more mature and level headed.
* ProperlyParanoid: Purposely made sure his mechanical systems had glitches and failings, which came in handy when Brother Blood stole his blueprints.
* RealNameAsAnAlias: Cyborg infiltrates the HIVE by donning a hologram to make him look human until he "powers up" into a rocklike form. He calls himself "Stone." His real name is "Vic Stone".
* ScaryBlackMan: He is the tallest of the Titans with a deadly weaponry at his disposal, and can look quite scary when he is serious pulling even a KubrickStare sometimes. Otherwise, he is a cheerful and friendly guy most of time.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: He leaves the team for a TenMinuteRetirement after a heated argument with Robin, from the first very episode. He returns anyway.
* SenseLossSadness: Comes up in "The Sum of His Parts", where he tells Fixit that he isn't keen with having his biological parts replaced with robotics because he doesn't want to go without experiencing fresh air and food.
* SmartPeopleBuildRobots: Cyborg has an acumen for science, and he is seen several times building robots, and even duplicates of himself.
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Cyborg is one of the smartest Titans, and plays chess with Raven in one episode. He even puts "Chess with Raven" into his daily Schedule.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Sarasim, because they are part of different timelines.
* SueDonym: When he took the identity of Stone to invade the [=HIVE=], Victor Stone here used his civilian surname.
* SuperMode: His ability to merge with Titans Tower and draw on its massive power reserves serves as one of these. In this form he gains a massive ShoulderCannon which is capable of [[OneManArmy obliterating an entire army]].
* SuperStrength: His most basic power, best shown in "Deception" where he spents the entire episode undercover as Stone, and relies entirely on his strength and toughness, and Only Human, where he's the only one who stands a chance against the massively and incredibly strong Atlas.
* SwissArmyAppendage: His hands can be converted into a variety of tools and weapons. In "Stranded" his arms literally serve as swiss army knives, which he takes out to fix the space station.
* SwissArmyWeapon: Cyborg's arm can cycle through sonic cannon, blowtorch, and pretty much an entire toolbox
* TeamChef: While all the main characters are shown cooking something at some point, Cyborg is the one shown cooking for the team most often.
* TechnoBabble: In "Stranded" where it annoys Beast Boy, who is unable to understand what he's saying. He resorts to "[[LaymansTerms the red candy cane thingamabob!]]"
* TechnoWizard: Cyborg has hacking skills and can create different computer programs.
* TelescopingRobot: He has a wide array of gadgets and weapons housed within him, including his SwissArmyAppendage.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Cyborg's diet seems to consist of two staples. 1: Meat, usually in contrast to Beast Boy's tofu, and 2: breakfast foods in general, waffles coming up most often.
* TwentyFourHourArmor: Cyborg is basically walking armor. Justified, since becoming half robot keeps him alive since his accident.
* UpToEleven: His mechanical muscles are superhumanly strong, but Cyborg initially believed that they had a power cap. During his fight with Atlas, his human half is somehow able to push them to 130% of their maximum output.
* VitriolicBestBuds: There are times when he gets in serious conflicts with Robin since they both are quite hot-blooded and stubborn.
* WatchThePaintJob: He does ''not'' like people messing with [[ThePreciousPreciousCar the T-Car]].
* WhatDoTheyFearEpisode: His greatest fear is losing the remainder of his humanity. This is shown in one of the comics and the first season episode "The Sum of His Parts", where a fully robotized human tried to do the same to him.

!!Bumblebee / Karen Beecher
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TKeyahCrystalKeymah; (English), Creator/HanaTakeda (Japanese), Yensi Rivero (Latin American Spanish), Deborah Ciccorelli (IT), Vanina Pradier (FR), Fernanda Crispim (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' Flight, shrinking/growth (though apparently no bigger than her normal human size), electricity-producing "stingers"
[[quoteright:169:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/polls_ibumblebee04_fs_5928_704623_answer_10_xlarge_2003.jpeg]]

A metahuman with insect-like wings capable of flight and the ability to shrink to a miniature size, Bumblebee also uses a pair of hand-held electric dart-guns as "stingers." Initially met Cyborg as part of Brother Blood's HIVE Academy, she joins him in taking it down, claiming that, despite appearances, she wasn't totally brainwashed by him and had, in fact, been planning on taking the crime-school down from the inside. She later becomes TheLeader of Titans East.
----
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In the comics, her suit was originally just PoweredArmor that let her fly and blast people. Here, her powers are part of her and include shrinking.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Smugly notes how she handily dealt with Cyborg in their first encounter.
* AnimalMotif: A bee themed superhero.
* BareYourMidriff: Her outfit in all her appearances bares her stomach.
* BelligerentSexualTension: She and Cyborg bicker rather openly at first, even after she reveals herself as TheMole.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Despite her slender frame, she can punch and kick through solid concrete and send Cyborg flying, which has nothing to do with her shrinking powers.
* {{Expy}}: She has more in common with ComicBook/TheWasp (shrinking, biological wings, electric "stingers") than her actual comic book counterpart.
* CombatStilettos: Fights in black heels with deadly effectiveness.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: With the rest of the Titans East, she's the Melancholic.
* GeniusBruiser: She's considerably skilled in combat to the point she can fight Brother Blood by herself and definitely adept at building and understanding technology, having built the second H.I.V.E. academy base.
* HellBentForLeather: The highlights of her pants indicate she is wearing a leather hero costume.
* HeroicWillpower: The reason she's resistant (not immune, but resistant) to Brother Blood's mind control is simple heroic resistance.
* TheKirk: She's a no-nonsense, logical leader.
* TheLeader: Of Titans East on recommendation from Cyborg.
* MostCommonSuperpower: Her tight top crop shows Bumblebee as being just as busty as Starfire and Raven.
* MsFanservice: Bumblebee is well-endowed, wears a body fit hero costume which shows her torso, and she not in lack of MaleGaze for sure.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: She can shrink to the size of a bee and maintain all of her strength, meaning she can send people flying while she's buzzing around them, with or without her stingers.
* TheMole: She's introduced by infiltrating the HIVE academy to investigate Brother Blood.
* SassyBlackWoman: "There's not a man alive who can tell me what to do."
* SizeShifter: Between her default human size and a much smaller insect one.
* SlobsVersusSnobs: Bee is rather persnickety, which causes a great deal of tension when she moves into a tower with four boys who are all varying degrees of gross.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only girl in Titans East, which she seems to resent.
* TallDarkAndSnarky: She's stern, tall, and snarks like there's no tomorrow.
* TeamMom: The way she interacts with her teammates makes her come off as being like a concerned mother. Being the official leader helps this perception.
* WomenAreWiser

[[folder:Aqualad]]
!!Aqualad / Garth ta'ldyl
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/WilWheaton (English), Alfonso Soto (Latin American Spanish), Creator/DamienBoisseau (FR), Sérgio Cantú (PT-BR)

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/titansdream07_9957.jpg]]

A denizen of Atlantis, Aqualad's relation (if any) to Aquaman is never mentioned in the series. He's able to breathe underwater, communicate telepathically with sea creatures, and a potent aquakinetic. He initially operates as a solo hero, but later becomes a member of Titans East.
----
* TheAce: In his intro episode he's a one person team that girls swoon over (including Starfire and Raven). He's less so afterwards, possibly because he had trouble adjusting to a team.
* AdaptationalBadass: Though comic book Aqualad eventually TookALevelInBadass as Tempest, he started out as one of the weakest members of the Teen Titans and couldn't even survive outside the water for more than a limited amount of time. This incarnation has no problem living on the surface, is gifted with powerful hydrokinesis, and was introduced as TheAce.
* AdaptationalDyeJob: As opposed to his purple-eyed comic counterpart, he has white pupils, each surrounded by a black iris and sclera.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: He was this to Beast Boy in his first episode. Beast Boy was so excited that the team was going on their first undersea adventure because he figured that with his ability to turn into any aquatic animal, he'd be the most important hero on this adventure. Then Aqualad shows up and completely upstages him without even attempting to.
* ChickMagnet: His intro episode has both Starfire and Raven swooning over him.
* FloatingWater: As an extension of aquakinesis, he can also do this.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: With the rest of the Titans East, he's the Phlegmatic.
* MakingASplash: Atlantian water manipulation.
* MonochromaticEyes: He stands out in terms of character design, since his eyes are purely black with no sign of pupils.
* MrFanservice: Even a pre-defrostation Raven couldn't help but notice how handsome he is.
* OurMermaidsAreDifferent: No tail for one thing.
* PrettyBoy: [[InstantFanClub Every girl around him faints]], ''[[OutOfCharacterMoment even Raven]]''.
* TheSmartGuy: He serves as the brains for Titans East.
* TheSpock
* TallDarkAndHandsome: The girls instantly fall for his dashing good looks.
* {{Telepathy}}: With fish. It comes in handy.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: His outfit and hair are very different from Garth's in the comics.

!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' BadassNormal specialized as an Archer with normal and "trick" arrows
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/speedytransparent.png]]

Similarly to Robin, Speedy is a former [[ComicBook/GreenArrow "costumed hero"]] sidekick who has since decided to make it on his own, only to become involved with a Teen Titans team.
----
* ArcherArchetype: Initially he fit the cool and stoic template because he was copied off Robin. Then he became, for lack of a better word, grungier.
* BlankWhiteEyes: He wears a mask similar to Robin's.
* BottomlessMagazines: His quiver never runs out of arrows.
* CatUpATree: Saves one during "For Real" for the "slow day of heroism" angle.
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: In "Winner Take All," he was Robin 2.0. In later appearances, he's more of a "bad boy" to better serve as a {{Foil}} to Bumblebee.
* ExpressiveMask: Like Robin, he never takes his mask off so it has to be expressive.
* FingerlessGloves: Partially to serve as an arm protector (he is an archer after all) and partially because they look cool.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: With the rest of the Titans East, he's the Choleric.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Often grouchy and rather abrasive, especially in comparison to Bumblebee and Aqualad, but he does the right thing when it counts.
* TheLancer: As stated above, he's a 'bad boy' to contrast the 'by the book' leaderness of Bumblebee.
* TheMcCoy
* MirrorSelf: To Robin, who Beast Boy and Cyborg think of as his clone.
* RainOfArrows: He has the weapon feat "Many shot".
* TechnoBabble: Briefly with Robin during their first meeting regarding high tech arrow technology. It quickly became literal babble to the other titans.
* TrickArrow: Where Robin uses batarangs for specialized effects, Speedy uses arrows.

[[caption-width-right:300:¡Más y Menos, sí podemos!]]

Young Guatemalan twins who speak only Spanish, these meta-humans have the ability of super-speed, but only while physically touching each other. They are recruited to be part of Titans East, but no other details about them are given.
----
* BadassAdorable: They're maybe three feet tall each, only speak Spanish, and are fully capable of beating up bad guys when together.
* {{The Big Guy}}s: Ironic considering they're so tiny but their speed lets them build up momentum to pack a serious punch.
* BilingualBonus: Everything that comes out of their mouths. Everything. It's specifically PlayedForLaughs a couple of times; notable examples include a long rant that went completely over Speedy and Aqualad's heads, and when Más's long and snide lecture on electromagnetism to explain how he could sense his twin brother was comically abbreviated by Pantha as "He said it was a twin thing".
* CanonImmigrant: They were original characters for the TV show who have since made appearances in the comics.
* CatchPhrase: "¡Más y Menos, sí podemos!" ("Más and Menos, yes we can!")
* DoggedNiceGuy: Played for laughs. They've been assiduously courting Starfire since the moment they first saw her. RuleOfFunny dictates that they be jealous of each other, of course.
* {{Foreign Curse Word}}: They've sworn in Spanish at least once. For obvious reasons, this was censored in the Venezuelan Spanish dub.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: With the rest of the Titans East, they're the Sanguine.
* FragileSpeedster: Their speed is their advantage. Once tagged they are less threatening.
* FunnyForeigner: The fact that they only speak Spanish is the subject of much humor.
* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Aside from their costumes, Más has a full row of front teeth, while Menos has a ChildishToothGap.
* {{Meaningful Name}}s: "Más y Menos" means "plus and minus" in Spanish. It's also a {{pun|nyName}} on the Spanish phrase for "more and less".
* {{Motor Mouth}}s: Naturally, being speedsters they have a habit of talking fast.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Each one is only about half the size of a normal teen. They have to stand on each other's shoulders to look the other Titans in the eye.
* SingleMindedTwins: They shout the catch phrase at the same time. More importantly, they have to be on the same page if they're to properly use their powers.
* SuperSpeed: They were the main speedsters on the show before Kid Flash showed up.
* SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: They speak entirely in Spanish. All of it is properly translated and grammatically correct, though they have heavy American accents, don't pronounce the ''R'' as it should be in Spanish, and put too many words together, which makes it really hard to understand.
--> "''¡Y este viejo nos esta jodiendo!''" - "And this old man is fucking with us!"
* TwinTelepathy: Slightly complicated example. Although Pantha attributes Más' ability to sense Menos to being a "Twin thing", Más explains that it's actually a result of a magnetic connection that gets stronger with proximity.
* WeaksauceWeakness: Their powers only work while ''touching''. Easiest way to disable them is separation. That's not the easiest thing in the world to do, but when Control Freak forced them apart, they were baffled.
* WonderTwinPowers: They grasp hands and then ZOOM!

!!Other Titans

[[folder:Terra]]
!!Terra / Tara Markov
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AshleyJohnson (English), Creator/NatsukoKuwatani (Japanese), Yaraiví Aceldo (Latin American Spanish), Isabella Guida (IT, Season 2), Laura Préjean (FR), Lina Mendes (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' Geokinesis. As Slade's apprentice, wore a special suit that created a telepathic link with him and enhanced her powers (but also allowed him to remotely control her).
->''They actually trust me.''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/TerraTeenTitans_4801.jpg]]

Terra was envisioned as a LighterAndSofter adaptation of the infamous "[[ComicBook/TheJudasContract Judas Contract Arc]]" character, who was a stone-cold psycho hired by Slade from the beginning to infiltrate the Teen Titans and managed to creep ''him'' out. The animated Terra, on the other hand, was envisioned as a more sympathetic, confused character -- WordOfGod describes her as no longer caring about good or evil, [[BrokenBird just wanting to no longer be hurt]].

[[AllThereInTheManual According to the]] ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'' comics, Terra was born Tara Markov, a princess to a small country called Markovia, and whose royal scientists experimented on her and her brother to imbue them with geokinesis (the psychic ability to manipulate earthen materials) as part of a project to create metahuman defenders. Terra escaped and abandoned her country, but, perhaps as a result of this, her ability to control her powers was limited -- Slade mentions, in her debut episode, a history of having attempted to settle down and do good, but causing disaster when her powers invariably went out of control and everyone turning against her for it. When she first met the Teen Titans, the possibility of her finally finding a home arose... but her paranoia meant that she would destroy this chance, and her friendship with them.

However, the episode "Things Change" and issue 51 of the ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'' comic also revealed that Terra's tragic "death", due to PowerIncontinence had not been permanent, and that she was happily living life as a normal schoolgirl, with no desire to return to either villainy or heroics.
----
* AbledInTheAdaptation: Terra in the cartoon has an AmbiguousDisorder but Terra in the comics was explicitly psychopathic in ''The Judas Contract'' comic arc. Later {{retcon}}s, however, say that Terra was either drugged by Deathstroke or she was coerced into being how she was, rather than mentally ill.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: She trades in her "normal girl" looks for a cuter design. She also lost her buck teeth.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Terra is portrayed ''far'' more sympathetically in the animated series than in the comics. In the comics, she was working against the Titans from the moment they met, and more or less an irredeemable psychopath with dwindling sanity. She also had a lustful relationship with Slade. In the cartoon, she's instead genuinely interested in being a hero... but too vulnerable to emotional manipulation and paranoid, so she ultimately sabotages herself by playing right into Slade's hands.
* AdaptationalModesty: Played with. Tara Markov wore a leotard that showed off her legs. The TV version of Terra wears a T-shirt and shorts, which while shows less of her legs, also [[BareYourMidriff bares her midriff]] where her comics counterpart doesn't.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Terra in the comics calls her "friends" names and is always hounding on Beast Boy. It initially seemed to be playful with a bit of being a jerk, however her reveal as TheMole shows that she just genuinely disliked the Titans. In the cartoon, Terra is genuinely friendly and upbeat prior to teaming up with Slade.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Terra displays symptoms of borderline personality disorder: She has inappropriate and/or extreme emotional reactions (taking the Titans' valid criticism of her powers ''very'' harshly), has highly impulsive behaviors (while on the team, Raven has to stop her from taking rash and dangerous actions immediately when presented with a problem), and has unstable relationships (jumping from intense admiration and love to intense hate of a person at the drop of a hat). The Teen Titans Go comic explicitly cites her lack of a concrete sense of identity when growing up. [[spoiler:Her brother Brion explains that "She didn't know who she was supposed to be."]]
* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:As of "Things Change," it's not clear if Terra truly has amnesia or if she's simply faking it because she desires a normal life; but the Teen Titans Go! comic strongly implies she remembers her brother. Either way, she doesn't have any desire to pursue her old life again, something which Beast Boy ultimately, and somewhat tragically, has to accept.]]
* AntiVillain: It's not so much that Terra ''wants'' to be bad as she's fallen into bad company and has serious issues.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:In "Things Change", she's flesh again and walking around]].
* BadassAdorable: A pretty woobie with catastrophic Geokinesis.
* BareYourMidriff: When officially part of the Titans, Terra's uniform was a midriff-baring outfit featuring a black shirt with a yellow "T" on it.
* BecomingTheMask: Despite her betrayal, she really felt at home with the team.
* BigEater: She can beat ''Cyborg'' in eating competitions. It's subtly implied to stem from her long period as a harassed drifter.
* BreakTheCutie: She started out cracked due to a terrible past and [[CorruptTheCutie then Slade finished the job]].
* BrokenBird: Terra has a DarkAndTroubledPast involving human experimentation, inadvertently causing disasters due to suffering from PowerIncontinence, and being persecuted by people for causing disasters. Add in Slade's typical machinations, and she's an emotional mess.
* TheChosenZero: Terra was chosen to be imbued with geokinetic powers, but ultimately she did not utilize them to live up to the hero she was forced to be.
* ClingyCostume: The armored suit Slade had fused with Terra's nervous system.
* CompositeCharacter: Before Deathstroke's daughter Ravager appeared in the tie-in comics, Terra's character combined elements of Rose Wilson and Tara Markov, particularly the abusive relationship the comic version of Wilson had with her father, and the long, blonde hair of Wilson's that fell over one eye, creating a visual comparison with Slade.
* CursedWithAwesome: Terra had awesome [[DishingOutDirt geokinetic]] abilities... but [[PowerIncontinence no real ability to control them]], which led to a vicious cycle of her being driven away by angry people after she lost control of her powers and caused disasters. Lampshaded by Beast Boy after her demise.
--> '''Beast Boy''': Her name was Terra. She was gifted with tremendous power and cursed with it as well.
* CuteBruiser: Her geokinetic powers make her one of the more offense-orientated members of the team, and her blue eyed blonde appearance makes her very cute.
* CuteAndPsycho: The show depiction of Terra is LighterAndSofter compared to the comic version but still qualifies. She seems friendly, funny, and kind, although her DarkAndTroubledPast has saddled her with destructive tendencies that can, and if helped along by Slade, will, manifest as homicidal psychopathy. Her switch from a cool gal-pal to Slade's ApocalypseMaiden was astoundingly dark and quick to happen, given the show's track record at the time.
* DarkActionGirl: She manages to hold her own against the Titans after her FaceHeelTurn, and, at the end, is the one to kill [[ManipulativeBastard Slade]].
* DarkMagicalGirl: Played Straight and Zigzagged, considering the rivalry with a foil, abusive parental relationship, a FaceHeelTurn, [[spoiler:and a HeelFaceTurn that ''literally'' depowers her]].
* DefusingTheTykebomb: [[spoiler:Terra manages to do this to ''herself'', figuratively ''and'' literally by turning against Slade and inadvertently depowering herself]].
* DishingOutDirt: She has control over all the earth and stone around her.
* TheDitherer: Of the Insecure/Submissive type; she is so weak willed that she cannot make her own decisions, nor take responsibility for her own doings, turning her into easy prey for [[ManipulativeBastard Slade]].
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: A lot of Terra's behavior (fear of intimacy, inability to settle down, paranoia, self-destructive tendencies, exaggerated startle response, desperate yearning for approval from a mentor figure that she ''knows'' will hurt her) are all very reminiscent of children who grew up in abusive households. Somewhat justifiable, given her own parents ''let'' their country's scientists use her as a guinea pig to induce metahuman powers, and she has been continually driven away by mobs of people for causing geological disasters.
* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler:At the climax of season 2's final episode, Terra breaks free of Slade's control, attacks him, and knocks him into a pit of lava. Although she frames it as her realizing that the Titans were her real friends all along, it's quite obvious that Slade's berating her for her cowardice, beating her up for failing him, and revealing he always considered her nothing more than just a tool he could use to his own ends, complete with [[PeoplePuppets bodyjacking her]] in order to force her to fight when she instead wants to run, are major motivations for her aggressive betrayal of her former master.]]
* TheDragon: Acts as this to Slade in "Aftershock Part 1" and "Aftershock Part 2" [[spoiler:until she pulls a HeelFaceTurn]].
* EvilCostumeSwitch: When she openly becomes Slade's apprentice, she switches from her "Titan outfit" to a new suit that looks like a mixture of bandage wrapping and body armor.
* ExtremeOmnivore: The only one able to stomach Starfire's AlienLunch and ''like it!'' Like her BigEater status, it most likely comes from her long time on the run, where she would have learned to eat ''anything'' that was available or else starve.
* FakingAmnesia: [[spoiler:When Beast Boy finds her in the last animated episode, she pretends like she doesn't remember him, at first. When Beast Boy expresses sympathy towards her, she indicates she is interested in him, but only if he acknowledges her as the Schoolgirl instead of Terra. He does not take the hint. Teen Titans Go! Issue 51 indicates that she does remember her past, particularly her brother Brion, as she spots him leaving the grounds of the Murakami School and gives a wistful smile]].
* {{Foil}} Raven and Terra have a unique dynamic going on if you take the entire series into account. Both are young female teen superheroes with PowerIncontinence issues and [[HeroWithBadPublicity public image problems]] -- Raven due to her half-demon nature making her come off as CreepyGood and her prophesied role to end the world, Terra due to [[DestructiveSavior the massive damage she leaves in her wake]]. However, their reactions to this issue are mirror images of each other. Raven ''accepts'' her flaws and works to overcome them; she works tirelessly to bring her powers under control and strives to be a hero in hopes of making up for the evil in her blood. Terra, on the other hand, ''runs away'' from her problems, both literally and metaphorically, by blaming others, making excuses for herself, and wallowing in self-pity. Whereas Raven constantly meditates and represses herself to establish her control, Terra fell in with Slade because he promised a quick and easy way for her to get the control she always wanted. Raven is incredibly loyal to her teammates, who she is implieds to view as a surrogate family, whilst Terra happily betrayed the Titans to Slade in exchange for his "help". [[spoiler:If you believe the Terra look-alike from "Things Change" is the real deal, the end of their resepctive character arcs further highlights their similarities and differences. Both hit the DespairEventHorizon, but Raven claws her way back from it, with a little encouragement from her friends, and continues fighting crime, whilst Terra ''literally'' declares ThatManIsDead and turns her back on her powers so she can enjoy a normal life]].
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: In the episode, "Betrayal", she is on the edge between Heel and Face, having doubts and regrets about what she's done. When Slade reveals the truth, she reaches out to Beast Boy hoping he'll understand. Instead, he says "you don't have any friends" and she goes completely over to Slade.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: She started off good, had a FaceHeelTurn when she went to Slade and became his mole, had a semi HeelFaceTurn that [[HeelFaceDoorSlam got slammed in her face]] when she tried to coax Beast Boy to join her instead of being destroyed with the rest of the Titans only for Beast Boy to chew her out for being a traitor, had an even ''bigger'' FaceHeelTurn as a response by gleefully hunting down and trying to kill the Titans at Slade's behest afterwards, and finally made a permanent HeelFaceTurn when she realized Slade was using her all along and she turned on him... [[spoiler:[[RedemptionEqualsDeath at the cost of her life]]. Or so it seemed...]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:She stops a volcano from erupting at the cost of being petrified]].
* IJustWantToBeNormal: [[spoiler:The reason why she is happy to be a schoolgirl instead of a hero in "Things Change". She'd much rather tackle homework than super villains]].
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: Already heavily influenced by Slade, she'd hoped to run away with Beast Boy after betraying the rest of the Titans to him. As might be expected, this didn't go well.
* LackOfEmpathy: She's evidently capable of feeling sympathy, but not empathy. She takes pity on Beast Boy and tries to get him to escape the attack on Titans Tower, ''but'', she has no clue how he could be so mad at her for trying to kill his TrueCompanions, especially after he promised to always be her friend. Consequently, she becomes enraged with him without even trying to look at it from his point of view.
* LoveInterestTraitor: To Beast Boy. When he finally asks her out on a date, she accepts, but then he discovers Terra betrayed the team by selling them out to their biggest enemy Slade and she agreed to the date so at least Beast Boy would be spared the night Slade's forces attack the tower. Although he was obviously angry at the reveal, Beast Boy still has feelings for Terra after her betrayal and tries reaching out to her.
* MeaningfulName: "Terra" means "earth" and she is, in many ways, literally defined by her [[DishingOutDirt geokinesis]].
* TheMole: From her second appearance on she's reporting to Slade on the Titans' activity.
* MoreThanMindControl: [[ManipulativeBastard Slade]] played on her paranoia and burned heroics.
* {{Motif}}: Reflections and butterfly imagery play a large role in episodes and comics featuring Terra, symbolizing her ever-shifting sense of identity and self-image, [[spoiler:and her eventual maturation into a confident, independent, happy young woman]].
* NeverMyFault:
** PlayedForDrama. Terra's paranoia that others will blame her for disasters that ''aren't'' her fault, as they have in the past, leads to her refusing to accept responsibility for disasters that actually ''are'' her fault. Indeed, this is the ultimate root of her entire villainous arc; she chooses to go to Slade after believing Beast Boy betrayed her (Robin just figured out her secret and didn't know it was supposed to be a secret) and then chooses of her own free will to repay her debt to Slade by infiltrating and betraying the Teen Titans. She even notes in the opening voiceover for "Aftershock Part 2" that she feels no guilt for betraying or seemingly murdering her former friends... and then [[VillainsWantMercy gets upset when they return and treat her as a serious supervillain]].
** [[spoiler:Averted when Terra finally takes responsibility for her mistakes in "Aftershock Part 2" after Beast Boy calls her out on it, where she stops a catastrophic earthquake triggered by her powers, turning herself into stone in the process]].
* NotSoDifferentRemark: To Raven. Episodes featuring the two highlight their many similarities and grudging friendship. [[spoiler:It's Raven who accurately pegs Terra's aspirations to normalcy in "Things Change"]].
-->'''Raven''': [[spoiler:Maybe she didn't ''want'' to be found]].
* OutOfFocus: After Season 2, where she allegedly dies.
* PeekABangs: In her second appearance, her hair slides over one of her eyes. It's a visual cue to her true loyalty.
* PeoplePuppets: The battle suit Slade gave Terra was designed to control Terra's powers, and her as well. She manages to override it and finish him off.
* PowerIncontinence: Why she's broken and paranoid; she can't control her powers, and people have always lashed out at her when they realise that she is the one (inadvertently) causing the disasters.
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:Turning against Slade and fixing the mess she made leads to her petrification. However, since she ultimately gets out of that, this becomes RedemptionEarnsLife]].
* RiddleForTheAges: [[spoiler:Terra's ultimate fate. Did she really come back from the dead? If so, does she really have amnesia, or is she just faking it? Each of the Titans has a different answer, and the series ends without resolving the issue]].
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Downplayed. While she is both a princess and superhero, she doesn't pick up the latter until she runs away and becomes a vagabond. While she's a princess the whole time, it comes up less often than Starfire.
* TheRunaway: She fled her country due to the experiments they were doing on her. Now she walks the earth endlessly.
* SaveTheDayTurnAway: Played with. Terra would rather not be acknowledged as a villain or hero. [[spoiler:High school's more her style.]]
* SecretLegacy: Formerly Princess Tara of Markovia.
* SelectiveObliviousness: Played for drama; her paranoia is so bad that, in her first episode, she immediately leaps to the conclusion that Beast Boy betrayed her by breaking his promise and telling Robin about her PowerIncontinence... despite both Robin's detective skills as Batman's sidekick being well known and the fact she had a pretty obvious bout of PowerIncontinence right in front of the whole team.
* SixthRangerTraitor: She joined the core team a long time after they had formed a team, and eventually betrayed them.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Beast Boy due to eventually [[spoiler:being turned to stone, and after that, apparently depowered and stripped of her memories]].
* StatusQuoIsGod: This Terra was never really allowed to feel like part of the team. The episode immediately after she joins has her conspicuously absent save a non-speaking cameo at the end and the following episode has her betraying the team.
* StepfordSmiler: Before her FaceHeelTurn she acts friendly and nice because she doesn't want people to see her nerves.
* StepfordSnarker: After her FaceHeelTurn, she replaces smile with snark. Robin doesn't buy into it, giving her a KirkSummation that shakes her to her core in one episode and a YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre speech in a later one.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: In the opening voiceover to the season 2 finale, Aftershock Part 2: "I have done horrible things, and I have absolutely ''no regrets''."
* TakenForGranite: The strain of using her powers to stop an impending volcanic eruption causes a backlash that turns her into stone. [[spoiler:By the end of season 5, she's reverted to normal, presumably depowered, and is now living a civilian life.]]
* ThatManIsDead: [[spoiler:She tells Beast Boy the Terra he thought he knew is now just a memory in her final appearance]].
* {{Tomboy}}: She's got no problems with [[{{Pun}} getting dirty]].
* TomboyPrincess: A consequence of constantly traveling on her own. A princess without an entourage will do a lot of dirty work.
* TooDumbToLive: Terra's ProtagonistJourneyToVillain, as tragic as it may be, does ultimately stem from Terra making some pretty dumb decisions.
** Firstly, despite being warned by Robin that Slade is [[TheCorruptor a master manipulator who loves to play headgames and is always seeking to ensnare super-teens as his pawns]], what does Terra do? That's right, she lets Slade get her alone and then she lets him get under her skin as he blatantly tries to recruit her.
** Secondly, when Robin notes after welcoming her to the Titans that they'll need to work on her PowerIncontinence, Terra ''immediately'' accuses Beast Boy of betraying her and runs away... as opposed to recalling either A: that Robin is publicly known to be Batman's former apprentice, and Batman is famous as one of the world's greatest detectives, B: that she had a ''very obvious'' narrowly-averted SuperPowerMeltdown during the battle they all just participated in, or C: both A and B. What makes this even worse is that Robin was neither hostile nor confrontational when he brought it up, simply acknowledging it as a legitimate issue that needed working on, so there was really no need for her to run away like that.
** Finally, after running away from the Titans, Terra decides the perfect person to go to in pursuit of finally mastering her PowerIncontinence, which the Titans had already freely offered to do, is... Slade. The creepy, manipulative, ObviouslyEvil self-admitted supervillain with plans of conquest and domination. There comes a point where it almost seems like Terra [[ThenLetMeBeEvil was really on the verge of turning supervillain anyway after all her hard luck]], and Slade was just a convenient excuse.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Zig-Zagged. Once she receives a HeelFaceDoorSlam, Terra is enraged, alternately sadly reminiscing of her time together with her friends in one moment and lashing out at them the next, culminating in her begging Beast Boy to [[NeverSayDie "destroy"]] her.
* TownGirls: The Butch to Raven's Neither and Starfire's Femme. She's rather tomboyish.
* {{Tykebomb}}: She was made into one to defend Markovia and left before her powers could be stabilized. Later, Slade hones her abilities and preys on her insecurities to make her into a more effective one.
* UnexplainedRecovery: [[spoiler: Discussed and PlayedForDrama. None of the Titans have any idea how Terra came back to life, nor does the show offer an explanation.]]
* VillainsWantMercy: In the season 2 finale, Terra had ambushed each of the Titans and took them out one by one with an almost sadistic glee. By the beginning of the following episode, they come back with a vengeance and attack her, catching Terra off guard. She even had the nerve to beg Beast Boy not to attack her despite her attempts on their lives the previous episode.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: After her HeelFaceTurn, she becomes this to the original Titans, who mourn her loss to an extent but temper that sorrow with acceptance of how much she endangered them.
* WeakWilled: She is so lost and confused that she desperately needs someone else to set her life's course for her. Only at the end does she finally find the strength to choose for herself.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Her powers cause earthquakes because she can't control them. She turns evil because she fell in with a horrible parental influence.

A charming speedster who develops a thing for Jinx and manages to convince her to change sides.
----
* AdaptationDyeJob: His eyes are green in the comics.
* AdaptationalBadass: His comic self is in no way harmless, but this version of the character raises his skills to OneManArmy levels, which in the comics he didn't reach until [[SidekickGraduationsStick he became the Flash himself]].
* BattleCouple: [[spoiler:With Jinx, his girlfriend and fellow superhero.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He's a friendly superhero so don't get on his bad side. [[OneManArmy Seriously, don't]].
* DatingCatwoman: Flirted with Jinx when she was with Hive Five. He's no longer this when she leaves them and becomes a superheroine.
* DeadpanSnarker: Pokes fun at the H.I.V.E. Five for still going by that name even though there are six members.
* TheDulcineaEffect: Of sorts, with Jinx. Once he crosses paths with her, Kid Flash continuously tries to convince Jinx to make a HeelFaceTurn.
* {{Expy}}: Of his incarnation from the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' cartoon. Like his DCAU counterpart, he's FunPersonified (a trait that would be carried by later incarnations), [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]], and [[CasanovaWannabe flirty]], and though he likes messing with the bad guys, he can see the good in some and [[MagneticHero bring it out]]. His consistent characterization in both shows was one reason why some viewers believed that ''Teen Titans'' was a DCAU entry.
* FragileSpeedster: He can be stopped if he runs into a sturdy enough surface.
* FunPersonified: He's a very friendly, playful guy who likes joking around and teasing others.
* HyperactiveMetabolism: Spends a lot of his early scenes in ''Lightspeed'' eating or attempting to. It's also made clear that the best way to beat him is to hound him until he tires out.
* IWarnedYou: Tells the Hive Five, specifically Jinx, not to go work for the Brotherhood of Evil. When he encounters the boys from the team just as they'd started fleeing the final battle, he notes that now they're not only in too deep but also on the losing side, adding "Hate to say it, but told ya!"
* InnocentBlueEyes: Likely signaling his trusting nature towards Jinx, [[spoiler: which Madame Rouge takes advantage of]].
* {{Intangibility}}:
** He can use his speed to phase through walls, shocking the Hive Five. It's why you need a containment field to hold him.
** When Madame Rouge gets him tired, he just runs though the walls instead, leaving an ImpactSilhouette.
* ItAmusedMe: He spends most of his introduction episode simply toying around with Hive Five, even though he was fully capable of turning them in at any time.
* KidAnova: In the animated show he only flirts with Jinx but the tie-in comic plays this completely straight. This lands him in some hot water with his girlfriend, [[spoiler:Jinx]], when he ends up flirting with different Titans girls.
* ManicPixieDreamGirl: A gender-flipped version because ''he's'' the reckless free spirit that is trying to get a wound-too-tightly chick to loosen up and have fun.
* NiceGuy: Even though he screws around with the H.I.V.E. Five, he never uses enough force to injure them and is actually rather jovial with them in conversation. Oh, and there's also the fact that he [[spoiler:reformed a supervillainess]].
* OfficialCouple: He successfully courts [[spoiler:Jinx]].
* OhCrap: When he encounters Madame Rouge.
* OneManArmy:
** Madame Rouge hypes Kid Flash up as being one of the harder team heroes to capture. Indeed, he spent the first half of his introduction episode screwing around with all of the Hive Five, a group of villains that even the Titans had trouble beating together.
** He and [[spoiler:Jinx]] show up to the final battle. He proceeds to clean up villains so fast his fellow speedsters Mas and Menos are impressed. Shortly after, Raven notes that the battle got a lot easier.
* OppositesAttract: He's in an official relationship with [[spoiler:Jinx, who is his opposite in almost every way. He's perky/happy, comedic, good, while Jinx is dark in looks, personality, and her powers]]. He seems to have a thing for "gothic girls" despite their personalities typically being nothing like his. This is evidenced by the fact that in the comics for the animated series, he flirted with Raven and Argent, two other gothic/dark characters.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: Until he starts getting tired, running through walls (not phasing) doesn't seen to bother him too much. Also people he carries at super speed don't seem to be damaged by it. He is, however capable of being stopped if he runs into someone or something sufficiently sturdy.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: After Jinx contacts Madame Rouge, he decides not to hang around for much longer. During his fight with Rouge, his side of the conflict can be summed up as RunOrDie.
* SuperSpeed: If it wasn't obvious enough. He's so fast that that he can vibrate his molecules through walls and send cars flying simply by running past them. This applies to his fine motor skills too, as he's able to quickly dismantle Gizmo's workshop with a wrench and mess with Gizmo's tools to turn them into a mini-cage around him.
* TheTropeKid: Kid ''Flash''.

[[folder:Red Star]]
!!Red Star / Leonid Kovar
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JasonMarsden (English), Víctor Díaz (Latin American Spanish), Gilles Morvan (FR), Ricardo Juarez (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/abilities:''' Generating radioactive energy blasts and explosions, flight, super-strength.
"As long as I am in this place, the world is safe from me."
[[quoteright:307:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/red_star.PNG]]

A Russian super-soldier with powerful radioactive abilities, which he can't control. He isolates himself in a remote, abandoned nuclear facility out of fear of harming others with his powers, and is regarded with fear and hate by those who know him for the damage he's caused before and who believe him to be the monster who ravages the village.

Despite that reputation, in person he's a polite, kind young man who wants desperately to help in spite of what he's become, but whose fear of his own power keeps him in self-imposed exile.
----
* AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength: He's terrified of his own powers; considering they make him a walking nuclear bomb and he has very little control of them, it's a justified fear.
* AngstNuke: Three of the triggers of his powers are frustration, anger, and fear.
* ChildSoldiers: He was a teenager when he was picked to be part of the experiment to create supersoldiers, and must've been in the army for at least several years before that to have achieved the rank of captain.
* CompositeCharacter:
** His powers are similar to Starfire's (energy blasts, super strength, flight, environmental immunity, extreme durability, etc.)
** His physical appearance is basically a [[DistaffCounterpart male human Starfire]] (red hair and eyes that glow a dull green, although his do not have visible pupils or irises). His eyes also glow when he is powering up, like Starfire's, granted his glow with his signature red energy as opposed to Starfire's green energy.
** He has PowerIncontinence if he becomes too emotional like Raven.
** His willingness to help people but to accidentally cause trouble thanks to his PowerIncontinence is no different from Terra's issues.
** He has a similar IJustWantToBeNormal demeanor and mechanical/technological skills to Cyborg.
** He has as similar origin story and military rank to ComicBook/CaptainAmerica.
** He has what is essentially a [[GloriousMotherRussia Cold War USSR era]] version of ComicBook/BuckyBarnes WWII costume (Even has a Captain America-esque star right in the middle of his chest). Likewise when his powers are going critical, the resulting PowerGlows makes his visor look like Bucky's DominoMask.
* DistaffCounterpart: To Starfire. Fitting considering his character's original comic book codename was Starfire (as in he was the original "Starfire"). In-universe though, they have similar personalities (being highly caring to those around them), share similar powers (though Red Star has to vent built up energy, unlike Starfire who can just power down), and share similar physical traits (red hair, and Red Star's eyes constantly glow green, similar to Starfire's though his glow red when he powers up, while Starfire's glow green)
* TheDreaded: His former commander refuses to even speak his name out of fear, and the entire village is terrified of him.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The first thing we ever see of him is him freeing a bear from a trap set by hunters, showing that despite what we'll later hear about him, he's a good guy.
* ExplosiveOverclocking: The more he lets his rage out and pushes his power use, the more radioactive energy he can generate, making his attacks stronger, but drastically decreasing the time it takes for his energy to build up to [[GoingCritical critical]] [[SuperPowerMeltdown levels]].
* FlawedPrototype: He was a test subject of a project to develop super soldiers for the Russian military. While he was granted super human powers, they were also [[SuperPowerMeltdown highly unstable and made him into a literal walking nuclear bomb]] who was just as much a danger to his allies (if not more so) as his enemies. So his superiors had good reason to cancel any further developments of the program.
* GadgeteerGenius: Developed a lot of skill with snowmobiles, even getting good enough to create an entire fleet and make ''lasers'' for them.
-->"I have... much free time."
* GeniusBruiser: He's tall, muscular, and primarily known for his destructiveness... But he's also skilled enough to understand, operate, and maintain an old Soviet nuclear facility by himself. He was also able to create a fleet of snowmobiles in his spare time.
* TheGoodCaptain: His rank in the military was captain, as we find out when the general addresses him as "Captain Kovar" near the end of "Snowblind". Incidentally, this is all that's shown of his real name in the show, since he's always just called Red Star; in the comics, his full name is Leonid Constantinovitch Kovar.
* GoodSamaritan: Him getting involved with the Titans at all was the result of him helping Starfire when she'd passed out after getting lost in a snowstorm.
* HuskyRusskie: He's about as tall as Cyborg, and even without the heavy coat he's very well-built.
* IAmAMonster: After his destructive powers first manifested, he had this opinion of himself. Until Starfire, no one disagreed with him.
* ILoveNuclearPower: Granted he doesn't "love" his powers, but the trope is played straight. he was granted his abilities thanks to nuclear age SovietSuperScience, and one of his main abilities is directed blasts of radioactive energy. If he doesn't perform a controlled vent of his powers, eventually he will literally explode like a nuke.
* LastOfHisKind: Starfire asks if there are others like him. Red Star replies that there aren't...anymore. Implying he wasn't the only test subject of the project who managed to gain super powers, but he is the only one to still be alive after so long.
* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: Despite what the people in the surrounding city think, not only is he ''not'' a monster who delights in causing harm, he doesn't even know that his powers are creating the monster that attacks the village periodically.
* MonochromaticEyes: His eyes changed to a blank green after the experiment that gave him his powers; previously, his eyes were normal.
* MythologyGag:
** At one point, the Titans forget his codename. In comics, prior to being Red Star, he was named [[NamesTheSame Starfire]]. This reference is also why Starfire takes such a prominent role in the episode introducing him.
** His eyes glow green and lack pupils or irises, referencing Starfire's design in most of her comic appearances.
** His red radioactive energy and the generally unstable nature of his powers make a strange sense when you notice he was one of Professor Chang's early experiments. Professor Chang is the one who developed Xenothium, a red colored, highly powerful, and highly unstable chemical energy source. Whatever was used to grant Red Star his powers seems most likely to have been a [[FlawedPrototype early version or precursor of Xenothium]].
** Related to the above. The large containers he vents his radioactive energy into look like giant vials of Xenothium once charged.
* NiceGuy: He's a deeply caring person and is willing to put himself on the line for people (or even animals) that he's never met and with no expectation of getting anything in return. That concern for others was the reason he wouldn't help fight the nuclear monster initially, as he was afraid of losing control of his power and hurting people.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Despite being a "Teen" Titan, the emblems on his uniform are those of the Soviet Armed Forces (which were disbanded in 1991), his uniform is appears as a modified Red Army officer's coat circa the 1960s, his flashbacks are in black/white film reel style which further alludes to mid-century Russia, he was one of Professor Chang's earlier experiments (and both Chang and Red Star's former commanding officer have greatly aged since), the tank used in one of his strength tests was a Soviet T-34 (which were phased completely out of service by the USSR in the late 1960s). On top of that he holds the military rank of Captain, which usually takes at least a couple of years minimum military service to achieve (and a recruit had to be 18 to join the Red Army, so by rank alone he would have had to have been at least 20 years old before his exile). So in all likely hood, Red Star is actually around his mid 50s in chronological age. Most probably the experiment that gave him his powers greatly slowed or outright haulted his physical aging processes.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: He destroyed an entire city when his powers first appeared; preventing something like that from happening again is something he has to channel his power away regularly to prevent.
* PowerGlows: His outbursts of nuclear power are heralded by a red glow that gains in intensity, starting with [[RedEyesTakeWarning his eyes]].
* RedEyesTakeWarning: When his normally-green eyes glow red, it's one of the first signs that he's about to lose control of his powers and let off an explosion of energy; the glow intensifies and grows to cover his whole body within a couple seconds, hopefully giving him enough to get clear of other people.
* SovietSuperScience: His design gives the image of a Red Army soldier from the USSR and evidence in his flashbacks point to him gaining his powers around the 1960s.
* SuperPowerMeltdown: The main draw back of his super powers. If he doesn't vent his energy when it starts to build up, he literally [[GoingCritical goes critical]], unwillingly venting radioactive energy with the force of a nuclear bomb. This is befitting his status as essentially a walking nuclear reactor
* SuperSoldier: The Red Army used him in an experiment to make the perfect soldiers. It seemed to work at first, when it changed him from a scrawny teen to a muscular and powerful fighter with super-strength. The experiment was regarded as a complete success... until his powers showed (very violently) for the first time.
* TestingRangeMishap: Red Star's backstory shows that while he was in a testing range demonstrating his abilities against tanks, PowerIncontinence causes him to accidentally destroy a city.
* UnexplainedRecovery: Despite his apparent death at the end of his first episode, he returns alive and well in the episode "Titans Together" without explanation.

!!Hot Spot / Isaiah Crockett
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BumperRobinson (English), Ángel Balam (Latin American Spanish, Season 2), Luis Enrique Poján (Latin American Spanish, Season 5), Tristan Petitgirard (FR), José Leonardo (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/abilities:''' Pyrokinesis, Heat transformation, Heat Vision, Superhuman durability and endurance
"That's because...I was just warming up."
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hotspot.png]]

A hotheaded pyrokinetic solo hero from Morocco who first met the Titans when kidnapped by the Master of Games to compete in a "Tournament of Heroes” where he was forced to fight Robin. He became an honorary Titan after the Master was defeated and his powers were returned to him.
----
* AdaptationNameChange: While his super-name from the comics, Joto, was chosen because it meant heat in Swahili, it was also discovered to be an offensive Latin-American Spanish word for gay people, so it was changed to Hot Spot for the cartoon and in the comics.
* AdaptationalNationality: Hot Spot is American in the comics. In the show, he is Moroccan.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In the comics, Hot Spot has the ability to generate intense thermal energy from his hands. In appearance, the power was very similar to pyrokinesis, but he could not generate actual flame. In the show, he is a clear pyrokinetic.
* AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength: Only in situations where they are a liability, and seeing as he lives next to an extensive oil field this limits where he is willing to go while using his powers. During his fight with Rouge, he prefers not to power down after he figures out that as indestructible as she is she can’t hold on to him while he is powered up which limits his movements.
* AllForNothing: After spending the better part of a day fighting and fleeing from Madame Rouge, he burns himself out in a final attempt to take her out and escape from her and protect the rest of the Titans by keeping her from getting a Titans communicator. Not only does this allow her to capture him, she also [[spoiler: takes his form and almost immediately gets Robin to give her a communicator to replace the one Hot Spot had destroyed to keep her from stealing one]].
* ADayInTheLimelight: The episode "[[Recap/TeenTitansS5E3Trust Trust]]" is dedicated to Madame Rouge’s attempts to steal his communicator from him.
* FlamingHair: He occasionally appears to have a fire atop his head while transformed, especially while BurningWithAnger, but usually keeps a bald look.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He is quick to anger in some situations and will snap at anyone trying to boss him around but his immediate response upon learning that Madame Rouge is only after him for his communicator is to destroy it to protect the other Titans even knowing that he is removing any reason she had for trying not to kill him.
* IWorkAlone: While he is an honorary Titan he prefers to work alone and is not only hesitant to call in help but insulted when it is insinuated he needs to. Even if he is happy to see Robin that does not mean he will take orders from him, especially if they contradict what Isaiah knows about a situation.
* ManOfKryptonite: Hot Spot's powers make it impossible for Madame Rouge to capture by force- at least directly and make it difficult for her to hold up her transformations while near him.
* MonochromaticEyes: While he is powered up his eyes are completely white.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: His costume is much sleeker and black in contrast to the busy grey yellow and white bodysuit with cropped hoodie from the comics, though his comics costume eventually came to reflect the more simplified one from the show.
* TheNoseless: While transformed since magma doesn't have a nose.
* LeParkour: How he gets around his city, running, jumping and climbing.
* PlayingWithFire: He is Pyrokinetic.
* ProperlyParanoid: By the time Robin actually does show up to help him against Madame Rouge, he’s been fighting her for a very long time and discovered that she spent hours masquerading as Robin trying to help him escape from Madame Rouge, so he is not up for another RememberThatYouTrustMe from anyone who looks or sounds like Robin and just runs from both Robins so he’ll only have to fight one at a time.
* WreathedInFlames: When he is powered up he transforms to look like he is made of fire or magma trapped in glass.

!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' Electricity manipulation, above-average agility (Lightning). Sonic blast generation, superhuman strength (Thunder). Flight, rain generation (Both).
[[quoteright:310:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/thunder_and_lightning.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:310:Lightning (left), Thunder (right)]]

A pair of supernatural brothers with storm-based powers who search for new ways to amuse themselves, regardless of how much damage they cause or how many lives they jeopardize in the process. They first come into conflict with the Titans when they use their powers to destroy a bridge and are later manipulated by [[BigBad Slade]] into using their powers to create a monstrous fire demon to destroy Jump City. Fortunately, they undergo a HeelFaceTurn and combine their powers to form a rainstorm that destroys the fire monster, which summarily helps them make peace with the Titans and become honorary Titans as well.
----
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In the original comics, the brothers are both rather aggressive and desperate, as [[spoiler:their powers were slowly killing them,]] but Thunder is shown to be a bit more aggressive. The animated versions of them are more playful, with Thunder being more open-minded while Lightning is impulsive.
* AdaptationExplanationExtrication: In the original comics, their entire backstory was explained. They have virtually no development in the animated series.
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inverted. In the original comics, [[spoiler:both brothers were slowly dying. It is explained that their own powers were destroying them, and they needed a transfusion of their father's blood to survive.]] In the animated series, they are simply mischievous teens with powers.
* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Thunder says this when Lightning is about to strike him down.
-->'''Thunder''': Tell me, brother, are we still having fun?\\
'''Lightning''': ...No.
* BadassBoast: Lightning drops a pretty chilling one when he brings down Starfire and prepares to finish her off. Thunder comes in with the save.
-->'''Lightning''': It seems your power has limits. But mine has ''none.''
* BashBrothers: Thunder and Lightning work well together. It's their motif. They are also brothers.
* EtTuBrute: Lightning reacts this way when Thunder attacks him to end their fight with the Titans.
* {{Flight}}: Both of them are capable of flying in distinct ways. Lightning transmutes the lower part of his body into electricity while Thunder summons a cloud to ride on.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Though they both relish in the chaos they create from their "playtime", Thunder is the first to realize what kind of trouble their actions cause after Beast Boy calls him out on it. Lightning, however, is fixated on keeping himself amused and doesn't realize the amount of danger he puts others in until the climax of his debut episode.
* ItAmusedMe: They started wrecking things because they were bored and looking for fun.
* MakeSomeNoise: Thunder is capable of firing powerful blasts of sonic energy from his hands not unlike what Cyborg can do with his sonic cannons.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone:
** Thunder has a moment when Beast Boy points out how he and his brother are putting people in danger, causing him to question their actions. He later gets another one that sticks during his next encounter with Beast Boy.
** Lightning starts to feel this way when he's about to strike down Thunder.
** Both have this moment after they helped create a giant monster made of fire.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Their designs look much more like a classic anime, ala Manga/AstroBoy or Manga/{{Cyborg 009}}, with Thunder especially having his eyes stylized as connected together rather than being individual.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: The way Beast Boy saw them, although their random destruction was much more dangerous than his pranks.
* OneShotCharacter: They only speak in one episode, and merely cameo in others.
* RedOniBlueOni: Lightning is the impulsive red to Thunder's conflicted blue.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveSupernaturalPowers: Originally, they both believed that they can amuse themselves however they wanted thanks to their powers, and Slade attempts to goad this mindset further by asking them why they should care about the harm they do as those with "unique gifts" and thus "better" than normal people. Lightning pretty eagerly laps it up, though Thunder has doubts thanks to Beast Boy and ultimately shakes his brother from this mindset.
* ShockAndAwe: Lightning is capable of generating powerful bolts of electricity and generate lightning from his hands.
* SiblingTeam: These brothers fight together, and even have the power to make rain when working together.
* SmugSuper: They are very confident about their powers, although Lightning embodies this more due to lower impulse control.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility: Thunder realizes this thanks to Beast Boy's talks, and he helps Lightning realize it as well.

'''Gnarrk Voiced by:''' Creator/DeeBradleyBaker (English), Carlos Vitale (Latin American Spanish), Mathieu Buscatto (FR), Luiz Carlos Persy (PT-BR)
!!!'''Powers/Abilities:''' Full-body crystallization providing augmented durability (Kole). Above-average physical strength and endurance, skilled tracker and survivalist (Gnarrk).
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gnarrkkole_1.jpg]]

A pair of loyal friends living in a subterranean prehistoric world beneath the Arctic Circle. Kole is a good-natured teenage girl capable of transforming her body into a nigh-indestructible crystalline substance, allowing Gnarrk, a super-strong Neanderthal, to use her as a makeshift weapon.

The duo first come into contact with the Teen Titans when they fall into the formers' underground home and are accosted by a pack of Utahraptors, which Kole and Gnarrk save them from. Shortly after befriending the Titans, Kole is abducted by Dr. Light, hoping to use her as a means of powering a device built to absorb the Northern Lights into a newly-created suit to amplify his powers.
----
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In the original comics, Kole had more powers such as making crystals out of thin air, as well as flight.
* AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, Kole could do things like create crystals and fly. Her animated counterpart's only power is to transform herself into an immobile, rock-hard crystalline statue to be used by Gnarrk as a club.
* AgeLift: Kole was explicitly 18 when she first appeared in the comics (as she was kidnapped by Thia when she was 16, and subsequently spent 2 years as her captive), but like the rest of the Titans, her animated counterpart looks to be at least a few years younger.
* BookDumb: As is expected from a prehistoric hominid, but Gnarrk does have crucial survival skills.
* CompositeCharacter: Kole takes over Lilith Clay's role as Gnarrk's companion.
* ContemporaryCaveman: Gnarrk once he leaves his underground home and goes topside to help the Titans.
* GrievousHarmWithABody: Thanks to being able to turn herself into a nearly-indestructible crystalline substance, Kole is capable of being wielded as an improvised club by Gnarrk.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Gnarrk is a hulking caveman and Kole is a tiny teenage girl.
* NiceGirl: Kole is sweet, perky, and unwaveringly loyal to Gnarrk.
* NiceGuy: Gnarrk is kind and loyal to his friend Kole.
* PokemonSpeak: All Gnarrk ever says is his name.
* PoweredByAForsakenChild: The reason Kole lives underground with Gnarrk away from modern society. People had tried to abuse her power for their own gain in the past, presumably to power superweapons like what Dr. Light planned to do. She eventually decided humanity couldn't be trusted and exiled herself to the underground.
* RoseHairedSweetie: Kole has a short pink bob and is a sweet, loyal friend.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: Kole was created for the sole purpose of dying for ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths''. This version survived.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Kole has pink hair.

Arella was a denizen of the extradimensional realm of Azarath and the mother of the Teen Titan Raven.

Arella unwittingly became the bride of the evil inter-dimensional being known as Trigon, but shortly after the wedding Trigon made love to her and then abandoned her rather than make her his queen. Through this union, Arella gave birth to Raven and raised her in the peaceful realm of Azarath. Despite Arella's efforts, her daughter was bound to Trigon by a prophecy which entails the subjugation and destruction of all life. Arella forever gave Raven her love, even knowing what she was destined to become: a vessel for Trigon's evil.

When the prophecy was about to come to pass, Raven desperately sought out Azarath for help, only to find the city at first apparently deserted. A white dove led Raven to her mother, who could offer neither help nor comfort since the prophecy was inevitable. Right afterwards, it was revealed that the sound state of Azarath had been in fact a cruel illusion: the city was destroyed and in flames, and its people, including Arella, had apparently perished.
----

A breadbox-size mutant silkworm. Initially bred by supervillain Killer Moth to be one of his evil moth minions, Beast Boy found him and took him in. Starfire took an immediate shine to him, and started to take care of him; unfortunately, the food she gave him led him to grow to a monstrous size, and he exploded. Thankfully, he was only molting, and a new Silkie was born from the ooze. He mostly serves as a source of many a FunnyBackgroundEvent.
----
* BigCreepyCrawlies: He a silkworm that's the size of a small dog, whereas most silkworms are only a few inches long.
* BigEater: Shown to eat quite a ton when hungry, and [[ExtremeOmnivore he'll eat almost anything too.]]
* CanonImmigrant: He was created for the series, but immigrated as part of Kori's ''ComicBook/DCYou'' series--albeit [[AdaptationSpeciesChange as a creature native to Tamaran]] and [[AdaptationNameChange the spelling modified to "Syl'Khee"]].

->''"I see you have a Tamaranean."''

A hero from another planet who's on a mission to stop [[MechanicalLifeforms The Locrix]], however his true self is anything but heroic. It turns out he's a {{Fantastic Racis|m}}t towards Tamaraneans like Starfire.
----
* AliensAreBastards: It turns out that Val-Yor isn't as heroic as he claims. While he does nothing genuinely evil on-screen and, as far as we know, the Locrix are believably an AlwaysChaoticEvil alien race that needed to be put down, he is a racist asshole that stirs a great deal of internal turmoil with the Titans he is working with. To further cement his status as an antagonist rather than a villain, Val-Yor never returns to cause trouble after his earthly mission is complete.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: He acts all friendly towards the Titans, except Starfire, and is seen as a great hero. Then it all turned sour when he called Starfire a "Troq" and when the rest of the Titans learns about his bigotry.
* BrokenPedestal: The Titans including Starfire were awed by his heroics, but they all lost respect for him when he called the latter [[FantasticSlurs ''Troq'']] and when the former discovered his prejudice against Starfire and all Tamaraneans. By the end of the episode, he declares that the Earthlings are on the same level as the Tamaraneans because they called him out on his racism, making the feeling mutual.
--> '''Val-Yor:''' I thought you Earthlings were alright. I guess I was wrong. You're just like the Troqs.
* BullyingADragon: {{Downplayed|Trope}}; he does have powers and is capable of handling on his own in a fight. However, he is still prejudiced against a FlyingBrick race with ComboPlatterPowers and ferocious temperaments. Within the episode, however, the trope is later examined rather than played straight. Starfire notes, sadly and accurately, that although she could beat Val-Yor in a fight, an unprovoked attack would only give him a [[JerkassHasAPoint justification for his contempt]].
* {{Expy}}: His metallic skin is very similar to ComicBook/CaptainAtom.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: A ''very'' negative take. When Starfire and Val-Yor are about to end the Locrix, they spring a trap that incapacitates Val-Yor in their crumbling stronghold. He shows no apprehension or fear at dying and simply tells Starfire to escape. He could ''easily'' however, ask Starfire for help but adamantly refuses to do so. Val-Yor's racism is so strong he would rather ''die'' than be saved by a Tamaranean.
* FantasticRacism: Taken UpToEleven towards Tamaraneans like Starfire.
* FantasticSlurs: ''Troq'' means "Nothing" or "Worthless" which means he calls Starfire a "Stupid Nothing".
* HateSink: Of his sole appearing episode. With the Locrix being a race of faceless beings the audience learns nothing about to form any investment in their defeat, Val-Yor and his racism becomes the main antagonistic focus of the episode.
* HiddenDepths: He was seen smiling as he left Earth; while it's probably because he's [[SmugSmiler smirking]] at being relieved to finally leave a planet full of Tamaranean sympathizers, [[AlternativeCharacterInterpretation there's also a possibility that]] [[PetTheDog he truly is thankful that Starfire saved him]].
* IronicName: ZigZaggingTrope. His name sounds similar to ''valor'' meaning "Courage". While he is indeed courageous when facing off against the Locrix, he's anything but when confronted about his racism.
* {{Jerkass}}: At his core, Val-Yor is a vile racist whose aggression extends towards those that stand against his bigotry.
* JerkassToOne: Val-Yor is a jovial and friendly guy to everyone but Starfire. Eventually, when the other Titans confront him on his racism after the Locrix are dealt with, he reverts to being a plain {{Jerkass}} to everyone.
* LightIsNotGood: Played with; he wasn't doing anything villainous other than being a racist {{Jerkass}} towards Starfire.
* LongLostUncleAesop: Existed to show that being racist is terrible, and he is never seen again after his debut episode.
* MysteriousPast: Due to being a CanonForeigner, nothing is revealed about his backstory and/or origins such as if his people have the same powers as him or not, if the Locrix are this AlwaysChaoticEvil race or it's just part of another group Val-Yor is prejudiced against, or why is he a racist towards Tamaraneans or if the rest of his people share the same contempt as him.
* TheNicknamer: Aside from "Troq" towards Starfire, he called Robin "Spike", Raven "Sunshine", Cyborg "Metal Butt", and Beast Boy "Champ".
* NobleBigot: Deconstructed. Barring Starfire, Val-Yor genuinely liked the other Titans and is trying to stop an evil alien race, but that doesn't stop them from losing respect for him once they realize his racism. Unlike in other VerySpecialEpisode where the racist's life is saved by a member of the group they are prejudice against, learns the error of their ways and changes for the better, Starfire saving his life didn't make Val-Yor any less of a racist than he was at the start of the episode.
* PoliticallyIncorrectHero: If not for his racism, he would've been genuinely heroic.
* UngratefulBastard: In spite of the fact that Starfire, and by extension the Titans, saved his life and helped him accomplish the mission, he still continues to act racist towards Starfire by half-heartedly "thanking her" and not even apologizing to her in the slightest bit, and when the Titans defend her, he accuses them of being just as bad as the Tamaraneans.
* WhatTheHellHero: The Titans call him out on his racism.
* YouAreACreditToYourRace: Val-Yor thanks Starfire this way, "complimenting" her on being one of the good Tamaraneans. None of the Titans are impressed.

* TheCameo: Appears in one at the end of "Regarding Robin", the first story of issue 47 of [[ComicBook/TeenTitansGo the tie-in comic]], watching from afar as the team tries to help Robin cope with the anniversary of his parents' deaths. It's revealed that he is the one who has been narrating the whole time, though the comic repeatedly misdirects the reader into thinking it's one of the Titans themselves.
** He also cameos along with the rest of the Justice League in issue 45, when Beast Boy claims they recruited him.
* TheGhost: He never appears in the series proper, nor is he referred to by name, but there are several nods to him throughout:
** In "Apprentice, Part 2", Slade suggests that he might become like a father to Robin; Robin responds "I already have a father" as a swarm of bats flies across the sky.
** Later in "Apprentice, Part 2", Robin as Slade's apprentice is forced to steal from a Wayne Enterprises building.
** In "Haunted", when Raven accesses Robin's mind, one of the memories she sees is Robin silhouetted against the wall of a cave taking an oath with someone, traditionally an aspect of the beginning of Dick Grayson's partnership with Batman.
** In the flashback episode "Go!", a thief Robin confronts in an alley is surprised to see him and asks "Aren't you supposed to be with—" before Robin cuts him off.

!!Doom Patrol

[[folder:General]]
The superhero team to which Beast Boy previously belonged.
----
* AdaptedOut: Niles "The Chief" Caulder, original founder and leader of the Doom Patrol from the comics, does not appear and is not mentioned by the Patrol; in the show, TheLeader slot belongs to [[CompositeCharacter Mento]], who serves as a FrontlineGeneral. Other references to him are also curiously absent -- Robotman briefly mentions a "they" when referring to how he got his body, when it was Caulder who built it for him in the original version, and the control module on Robotman's chest was originally a camera and two-way speaker to communicate with the Chief, who was usually serving as MissionControl.
* BadassInDistress: They're introduced in the Brotherhood of Evil's clutches, messaging Beast Boy for help (who brings the Titans along with).
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: As they part ways with the Titans, the Doom Patrol says they will continue chasing the Brotherhood of Evil. Despite this, they're never seen fighting the Brotherhood's mass expansion or targeting of young superheroes, nor do the Titans attempt to contact the Doom Patrol.
* FirstNameBasis: Unlike most other superheros and supervillains in this show, who are OnlyKnownByTheirNickname, the Doom Patrol used {{Code Name}}s but also refer to each other by first name (including Beast Boy, whom they alone call "[[EmbarrassingFirstName Garfield]]").
* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: In "Homecoming", the Doom Patrol's latest mission is a rank disaster, with the group dropping one member after the other as they proceed from one trap to the next until only Beast Boy and Mento are left.
* InformedAbility: Cyborg indicates the Doom Patrol are "legends", but compared to the Titans they actually seem to be very dysfunctional and bad at working together.
* LeeroyJenkins: What little we see of the Doom Patrol in action mostly consists of them charging headlong from one incident to the next, which just as often drops them into traps as it results in success. The most strategy we see from them typically involves matching a specific patrol member to a specific obstacle.
* SimilarSquad: The team as a whole is a dark mirror of the Titans, with each Titan having a ShadowArchetype among the Doom Patrol sans Beast Boy himself.
* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the comic, Beast Boy joined the Titans because the rest of the Doom Patrol died in the end of the original run[[labelnote:Although]]Mento survived because he wasn't a full-time member of the team in the comic. Robot Man turned out to be OnlyMostlyDead when the series was revived, and so were most of the others at various later points.[[/labelnote]]. Here Beast Boy elected to leave, ostensibly to step out of Mento's shadow, and they're last seen alive and well.

[[folder:Mento]]
!!Mento / Steve Dayton
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/XanderBerkeley (English), Ledner Belisario (Latin American Spanish), Serge Faliu (FR)
[[quoteright:292:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/f37f6ccbe096b4b688a766106f0de242.jpg]]

The leader of the Doom Patrol and the go-to nemesis for the Brain. Real name is "Steve".
----
* AbusiveParents: Not intentionally, but chewing Beast Boy out for saving the team instead of destroying the Brain's doomsday device was not good for BB's emotional development. His general attitude seemed to treat Beast Boy as another recruit, instead as his surrogate son.
* AdaptationalJerkass: Now, it's worth noting that classic 1960s Mento began as a pompous ass and did ''not'' get along with Beast Boy (he didn't get along with Cliff or Larry, either), and his appearances in the ''Titans'' comics through the 80s and 90s were temperamental at best, but that's still a far cry from the demanding, obsessed, and unforgiving leader in the cartoon, probably a result of his CompositeCharacter nature.
* ArchEnemy: His venom towards the Brain is palpable.
* CharacterDevelopment: After spending the better part of two episodes being an unwavering dictator, he finally relents after Beast Boy chews him out over his command style. Best shown when he says "I'll let it slide" after seeing the Titans join the fight against the Brain against his orders in the finale of the season five premiere.
* CompositeCharacter: Combines Mento and The Chief, who in the comics was the actual leader of the Doom Patrol whereas the original Mento was the team's occasional SixthRanger and eventually financial backer.
* CoolHat: {{Inverted|Trope}}. Mento's got his super-dorky "Pot Head" helmet going on, but it stimulates his psychic powers.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Mento straight up lashes out at Beast Boy when the Brain and Monsieur Mallah escape in the prologue of "Homecoming" and blames him for not taking out the Brain's machine first (when what actually happened was that Beast Boy rescued the patrol, allowing Negative Man to take out the machine only seconds later).
* DistressedDude: Along with Negative Man for Homecoming Part 1, he is captured by the Brotherhood of Evil.
* GeneralRipper: A rare ''heroic'' example, and easily one of the more self-destructive out there. His entire character arc centers around relentlessly pursuing a vendetta against his long-time nemesis, which almost results in the destruction of his team.
* GrumpyBear: He's rather sour, due to his intense focus on finishing the mission, though he gets better.
* KnightTemplar: A mild case, but in his defense...
-->'''Cyborg''': [The Brain]'s targeting the Tower!\\
'''Raven''': Not just the Tower. He's targeting the entire ''city''.\\
'''Mento''': Now you see why I have such a problem with this guy?
* LeeroyJenkins: His diving head long into danger nearly screws his entire team over. Beast Boy chews him out over it, which gets him to relent.
* MrExposition: "Homecoming: Part 2" starts off with Mento explaining the Brotherhood of Evil in full.
* ParentsAsPeople: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. During the prologue to ''Homecoming'', he encourages Beast Boy to follow the plan "like we practiced", suggesting at least an attempt to build a decent relationship. He just can't drop his KnightTemplar focus on the objectives.
* SenselessSacrifice: He makes it clear that he sees sacrificing one's life as necessary in fighting evil, to which Beast Boy strongly disagrees with.
* ShadowArchetype: Mento takes Robin's obsession with "the mission" and churns it up to borderline KnightTemplar levels. Extremism aside, the biggest difference is that while Robin is more focused on the overall goal of winning and as such is more adaptable, Mento seems more concerned about just ''doing'' the mission the way it was planned.
* TheUnfettered: He puts the mission above everything else, even his own team's survival. It isn't until he's right at the edge of death that he calms down.
* UngratefulBastard: Beast Boy saves him and his team twice, and both times he chews him out for it.

[[quoteright:306:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ef38e2e939d7f9222a89b9d01fc8f146.png]]

The cyborg teammate, whose real name is Cliff. Not known for strategy.
----
* TheBigGuy: The Doom Patrol's DumbMuscle. The guy can chop trees in half with a swing of his arm.
* BlessedWithSuck: He spends five months effectively in a coma after the Brotherhood shuts him down and hangs him out to dry; as invulnerable as he is, he is less than pleased over the fact that he was built with an off-switch.
* {{Cyborg}}: Unlike Cyborg himself however, only his brain is still organic.
* DumbMuscle: Raven makes fun of him over it.
-->'''Raven''': You sure he has a brain in there?
* LanternJawOfJustice: His robotic body gives him quite the broad and chiseled chin.
* LeeroyJenkins: "If he builds it, I'm gonna break it. That's the way we do things in the Doom Patrol".
* NotQuiteDead: It initially appeared that he died during a fight with the Brotherhood of Evil, but it is later revealed that he merely shut down and he later reactivated.
* PetTheDog: He tries to circumvent one of Mento's lectures so they can celebrate the fact that Beast Boy just turned T-Rex for the first time and saved the Patrol from death, but Mento can only see that the Brotherhood escaped.
* ShadowArchetype: Robot Man is a grumpier and [[LeeroyJenkins far more impulsive]] Cyborg, with brain waves as his only remaining 'organ'.
* UselessAccessory: Averted; in the original comics that thing strapped to his chest was [[{{Zeerust}} a portable two-way camera]] used to communicate with [[BigGood The Chief]] remotely when they were out in the field. In the cartoon it appears to be a control mechanism of some sort that Cyborg has to repair.

[[folder:Negative Man]]
!!Negative Man / Larry Trainor
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JudgeReinhold (English), Fumitoshi Miyajima (Japanese), Héctor Indriago (Latin American Spanish), Arnaud Arbessier (FR)
[[quoteright:252:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eb1feacf8641749bb8be7cf6860b460b.jpg]]

A man wrapped head-to-toe in bandages; his body houses a "negative spirit" that he can project forth for extended periods of time. His real name is Larry.
----
* DeadpanSnarker: Quips as much as he can when given the chance.
* DistressedDude: Along with Mento for Homecoming Part 1, he is captured by the Brotherhood of Evil.
* TheFaceless: Negative Man's face is covered in bandages, so you never see it.
* GrumpyBear: He talks as if he's perpetually bored, and coupled with his penchant for snark, he's the most likely member to voice his pessimism over their chances.
* HeroicSacrifice: He uses his soul to cover for Beast Boy, Mento and Elasti-Girl, but he stays out of his body for so long that he fails to return to his body in time.
* MeaningfulName: His name's ''Negative'' Man and he's a [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] GrumpyBear.
* NotQuiteDead: Somehow manages to survive his HeroicSacrifice ordeal.
* ShadowArchetype: Negative Man is as [[DeadpanSnarker deadpan and snarky]] as Raven, but he seems to be more bored than dispassionate.
* TheStoic: He's low-key compared to everyone else.

[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/5e8a9dfa85447a3d9e43d8e878b0f19c.jpg]]

The only female member and the one with the best temperament of the group. Her real name is Rita.
----
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: In the comics, she relates a few of the sillier stories of Beast Boy's childhood to the team.
* TheChick: The only girl in the team. Also by far the nicest of the group and the only one who regularly calls out Mento for his attitude toward Beast Boy.
* DangerouslyShortSkirt: She always fights in a miniskirt.
* HeroicSacrifice: Holds onto a giant boulder that gets shot by a drone, all to give Mento and Beast Boy time to escape.
* ImpliedLoveInterest: She is implied to have a thing going on with Mento ("Steve"), which is rather fitting, since they are married in the comics, and Beast Boy's ''de facto'' foster parents.
* MagicSkirt: No PantyShot despite the mini skirt.
* MamaBear: Since Beast Boy and Elasti-Girl had a mother-son relationship, she was not only protective of him because he was a teammate or the youngest, but because Beast Boy is like a son to her. She would also always stand-by Beast Boy whenever Mento was really harsh with him or whenever he was scolding him for making a mistake.
* NiceGirl: Elasti-Girl shows to be like Starfire by always showing compassion and consideration for others, and they're the girls of their own team that always have a big heart.
* NotQuiteDead: Survives her HeroicSacrifice like the other members.
* ParentalSubstitute: She's the most openly caring of the group towards Beast Boy, and the way she ruffles his hair and gives him a kiss on the cheek are all maternalistic gestures.
* ShadowArchetype: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. She and Starfire are both TheHeart on each team, but the Doom Patrol doesn't have much to hope for, natch, so her advice to Beast Boy after losing a teammate is to not think about it.
* SizeShifter: Her main power is to grow to gigantic size. In the comics, she could also shrink to miniature size, but it's unknown whether she can do the same in the show.
* TeamMom: She acts as a surrogate mother for Beast Boy.

** WordOfGod has stated that the idea behind this version was for this Robin to represent "Robin in general" rather than any specific Robin. Hence, this incarnation takes elements from different Robins from the comics. He's largely adapted from Dick Grayson (especially Dick from the New Teen Titans comics)—his future identity as ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}, his backstory, his anger issues, his detective skills, and his love for Starfire are all staples of Dick's character. His willingness to do morally compromising decisions takes after Jason Todd. However, his fighting style (especially his use of the bo staff), his spiked hair, his costume having a black cape lined in yellow, fully covering long green pants legs, and steel-toed boots are all from [[ComicBook/RobinSeries Tim Drake]], the third Robin.

'''Starfire''': HURRY OR YOU WILL NOT GET ANY!

* BlessedWithSuck: He spends five months effectively in a coma after the Brotherhood shuts him down and hangs him out to dry; as invulnerable as he is, he is [[{{Understatement}} less than pleased]] over the fact that he was built with an off-switch.

'''Titans and Allies''' | [[Characters/AnimatedTeenTitansVillains Antagonists]] ([[Characters/TeenTitansSlade Slade]])]]

This is the character sheet for the WesternAnimation/TeenTitans heroes as they appear in the animated series of the same name. [[Characters/ComicBookTeenTitans See here]] for the characters from the [[ComicBook/TeenTitans Titans comic books]].

* DreadfulMusician: In "Only Human", when she sings her "tamaranean folk song", it consists mostly of screaming and it annoys Cyborg, and in the end, the others appear to be terrified of it.

* DreadfulMusician: When singing her "tamaranean folk song", it consists mostly of screaming and it annoys Cyborg and the others appear to be terrified of it.

* AmazonianBeauty: She's got muscles and she's easy on the eyes.

When the prophecy was about to come to pass, Raven desperately sought out Azarath for help, only to find the city at first apparently deserted. A white dove led Raven to her mother, who could offer neither help nor comfort since the prophecy was inevitable. Right afterwards, it was revealed that the sound state of Azarath had been in fact a cruel illusion: The city was destroyed and in flames, and its people, including Arella, had apparently perished.

** In the crossover "Teen Titans Go! vs. Teen Titans", unlike the other Titans, Robin remains permanently irritated by his ''GO!'' counterpart even during the heartwarming parting of ways between the others.

* VerbalTic: She never uses contractions (so she will always say "I am" instead of "I'm" or "Is not" instead of "Isn't"), probably because she basically downloaded the language rather than learned it, only allowing her to process the most necessary elements of communication. She also has a habit of using "the" in sentences where it's either unnecessary or where another word might sound more natural.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: He didn't show a hint of jealousy when Starfire found Aqualad very handsome in "Deep Six". Admittedly, there was a villain to stop and he didn't interact with Aqualad as much as Beast Boy did, but it's surprising since he'd later show the slightest hint of hostility when Starfire showed interest in other guys.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Originally Beast Boy was written without reference to his comicbook storyline, essentially free-floating in the show's setting, so the most he ever had to angst about was his disastrous relationship with Terra on the one hand and the continuously growing pile of disrespect from the other Titans on the other. Then the PostScriptSeason started and, strapped for material, the creators decided to bring the Doom Patrol in, which required them to essentially {{Retcon}} Gar's past and history into the show[[note]]compare Cyborg, who at least had a handful of lines over the course of the show describing what life was like before he became what he is today[[/note]]. The show's spinoff comicbook took this even farther by also making canon the earliest part of his comic origin story (his birth parents died in a flood in Africa when he was a boy). The end result is a Beast Boy who is ''substantially'' more complex than the show ever intended, which leaves us with an entire ''four seasons'' of what basically amounts to EarlyInstallmentWeirdness.

* PerpetualFrowner: It appears she actually has difficulty smiling, as shown by her attempt in "The End - Part 1" that results in a creepy CheshireCatGrin.

* WhenSheSmiles: Raven's smiles are so rare that they're a sign of impending doom and she's trying to make everyone's last moments together pleasant.
