History Characters / BatmanBeyondVillains

* HalfHumanHybrid: Thanks to the miracle of splicing Woof is half man and half hyena.

* TheQuietOne: Since he articulates a lot of growls and laughter, it seems like Woof may be physiologically incapable of speech, but it's revealed in the alternate universe seen in ''Justice League Unlimited'' (where he has several cybernetic modifications) he says, "Sorry, Lord Chronos." In Paul Dini's original movie screenplay, he was supposed to get one line as the GCPD captures the Jokerz, "Aw, nuts."

* BrutishCharacterBrutishWeapon: In the alternate timeline created by Chronos, Bonk gains a cybernetic hand that can turn into a hammer.

* GoOutWithASmile: Unlike most examples, it's not a sign that he died peacefully. Instead it's a nightmarish rictus death grin.

* JockDadNerdSon: Willie Watt a complete nerd and not the cute kind. Conversely, his father Frank is a well-built man who is into construction. He makes it clear to Willy that he "ain't raisin' no wuss" and encourages Willie to use violence against the bullies that torment him. This inspires Willie to steal a high-powered construction Golem and attacks his fellow students with it at a school dance. He even aims to be a SelfMadeOrphan and tries desperately to kill his own father. What was Frank's response when his son got arrested for all this mayhem? "Guess this means he ain't no wuss anymore." Batman's DisapprovingLook makes him regret saying that.

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: In his first episode he was dependent on the Golem to be any kind of threat. By the time Terry sees him again, Willie's become anything but harmless. Not only has he bulked up in prison but he's also developed psychic powers from his bond with the Golem.

* AntagonisticOffspring: Her daughter ends up trying to kill her to seize all of Inque's sizable fortune for herself. Despite this, Inque still loves her daughter and never goes after her in revenge, according to the comics

* BirdsOfAFeather: Melanie, with Terry.

* ImpoverishedPatrician: After the Royal Flush Gang kidnaps him to get the money he owed them for their last heist, Paxton reveals that aside the money for his art collection he is completely broke, as everything he owns or uses is due to company perks.

An old friend of Terry's who turned to a life of delinquency and crime. Thanks to a super serum, Bigelow transforms into a hulking monster who makes use of his old nickname, Big Time.

* TheJuggernaut: The only member of Terry's RoguesGallery that he was never able to beat on his own because she could power through or escape anything he tried. Most of his victories against her were owed to by the aid of others; Bruce (twice), Inque’s treacherous daughter, and Superman.

* VoluntaryShapeShifting: Inque can change her shape at will, and demonstrates quite a bit of cunning with this ability (posing as someone's shadow or a jacket to avoid detection).

** Her inky liquid form is vulnerable to water. Just some water can dilute her enough so that she can't form a solid shape, but it doesn't permanently kill her either, since she's usually able to eventually pull herself together from being flushed.

* DoesNotLikeMen: Never stated outright but Inque expresses no attraction to men outside of manipulating and using them. She seems to take special pleasure in tormenting and dominating both Terry and Aaron. [[spoiler:FridgeHorror when you realize she's so defensive to male contact because she was gang-raped by sex traffickers in her youth.]]

* HiddenDepths: He's generally a vengeful, vindictive man who doesn't care how much damage he causes in his quest to kill Batman. But he shows a decidedly different side around those who seem to appreciate his work. When Terry shows up disguised as a pizza boy, he takes pity on him for getting the wrong order and gives him a tour of his workshop...before snapping back to paranoid anger when he thinks the kid is a spy. This also extends to his partnership with Ollie, as Shreeve generally treats him as an equal and confides his frustrations with him. For all his talk of vengeance, Shriek still on some level [[IJustWantToHaveFriends does value companionship.]]

* NatureIsNotAToy: Shriek was an excellent audio engineer whose inventions allowed him to manipulate sound waves in a variety of different ways, from demolition to outright psychological manipulation. Unfortunately, brilliant as they were, they began proving to be too expensive to build and, as Derek Powers points out when Shriek tries to land a legitimate job at Wayne-Powers, impractical. Derek instead enlists Shriek as a hitman in an assassination attempt against Bruce Wayne, but is foiled by Terry. In the ensuing fight, Terry briefly manages to use Shriek's own inventions against him by turning on every machine in the factory they're fighting in, making it impossible for Shriek to locate him at first. Shriek adjusts the disks on his suit to mute all other sounds except for Terry's footsteps, but this backfires on him rather spectacularly when one of the disks gets struck by Terry's Batarang and ''massively'' amplifies all audio input, rendering Shriek completely deaf.

* NiceToTheWaiter: In his first appearance when Terry poses as a lost pizza guy to investigate him, Shreeve take's pity on him, invites him into his workshop and patiently answers all of Terry's questions regarding the science behind his inventions. It's only after Terry keeps digging by asking about using sound waves for destructive purposes that Shreeve realizes Terry knows about his villainous activities and tries to kill him.
* PunchClockVillain: At first he just wanted continued funding from Derek Powers for his research, which (to Shreeve's regret) he could only get by assassinating Bruce Wayne. After Batman deafens him, his villainy becomes personal.
* RevengeBeforeReason: At first, he just wants to secure funds so he can keep doing his research, but as his life is stripped away he [[MotiveDecay degrades]] to this. Summed up in one exchange, after he's exposed as Shriek and goes to see Powers with the intent of killing him:

* ReformedButRejected: Unlike Bruce, Terry is more accepting of the possibility that Freeze has really reformed. At the end, Bruce seems to have come aroound to the point of believing that Freeze sincerely ''tried'' to reform.
