By many accounts, he's one of the most powerful villains in the DC Universe and has beaten down Superman '''and''' Wonder Woman in ''ComicBook/InjusticeGodsAmongUs''.

She has been a member of the Ravens, Tartarus, Injustice League, the Secret Six ComicBook/SecretSix and Titans Villains for Hire.Hire. She betrayed the Secret Six to the Society in the opening story arc and has popped up again a number of times since.



%%* AcquiredPoisonImmunity
* ArchEnemy:
** The closest the Secret Six has to one, but mostly to Catman in particular.
** She's also Roy Harper's.



* MamaBear: And not just to people trying to hurt her kids. She once staged an elaborate plot to ruin and murder ComicBook/BlackCanary because Canary had developed into a psuedo-surrogate mother figure for her daughter.
** Well, at least until their safety proves more of a burden and a liability. At which point she'll go out of her way to conceive a replacement kid, and use that pregnancy as a shield.
** EvilMatriarch: To be fair, staging an elaborate plot to murder the women whom is her daughter's surrogate mother-figure doesn't necessarily make her a MamaBear. Cheshire was espousing that she had plans to retire, and getting Black Canary out of the way would've made things less complicated for ''her''.

to:

%%* AxCrazy
%%* BadassNormal
* MamaBear: And not just TheChessmaster: What's the best way to people trying to hurt her manipulate a superhero and a supervillain who both hate your guts? Have their kids. She also once staged set up a convoluted revenge scheme in ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey'' that started off with Jade framing ''herself''.
* TheChewToy: Any time Gail uses her, Cheshire inevitably gets her ass handed to her. She's been thrown out of a helicopter, tortured, shot in the chest, forced to eat Solomon Grundy's cooked flesh, beaten within
an elaborate plot to ruin inch of her life by Jeannette and murder ComicBook/BlackCanary then kicked upside the head by Tarantula, left as a bloody heap on the floor by three mercenaries hired to steal her son, [[spoiler: and then told said son was killed when he's really alive and been adopted by a loving couple.]]
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Unfortunately for her the Society [[RewardedAsATraitorDeserves aren't idiots.]]
%%* DarkActionGirl
* DirtyCoward: Any time she gets cornered by Roy Harper or Thomas Blake she's quick to make some mention of the fact that she had their respective children. Also, for all intents and purposes, we've seen that while Jade is quick to dish out some extreme punishment, she's barely able to receive any back without pulling tail. See her encounter with Jeannette.
%%* DragonLady
* EvenEvilHasStandards: An inversion of sorts. Deathstroke shot her after she divulged the location of the Six
because Canary had developed into a psuedo-surrogate mother figure for she sold out her daughter.
** Well, at least until their safety proves more of
own team.
* EvilerThanThou: When the only other villain you're listed with under "(Worse) Villains" is '''Junior''', you ''know'' you're
a burden monster. Gail Simone's stated Cheshire is one character whom she never writes with any redeeming qualities and a liability. At which point she'll go out of cites her way to conceive a replacement kid, and use that pregnancy nuclear genocide of Qurac as a shield.
**
the reason why.
%%* EvilIsPetty
*
EvilMatriarch: To be fair, staging an elaborate plot She set out to murder the women whom is her daughter's surrogate mother-figure doesn't necessarily make her a MamaBear. Cheshire was espousing that she had plans to retire, and getting Black Canary out because she's taken care of Lian, and the way would've made things less complicated girl comes to see Canary as more of a mother than Cheshire. Of course, whether or not her love for ''her''.her child is genuine is still up for debate.
** Given how she genuinely didn't seem to care that [[spoiler:Lian was being used as leverage, or that she died]]...
** Hell, she's so bad, even at age 4 Lian is perfectly aware of and ashamed of how horrible her mother is. When Lian's babysitter revealed that her grandparents died in the Qurac explosion, Lian got so angry at her mother she threw Jade's picture at the wall shouting "BAD MOMMY!"
%%* FemmeFatalons
* FreudianExcuse: She was sold into slavery at a very young age.


Added DiffLines:

* ItsAllAboutMe: She has no regard for anyone else unless she can use them.
* KarmaHoudini: Averted multiple times, at least when Gail Simone's the author.
%%* LackOfEmpathy
* LaserGuidedKarma: See TheChewToy. If Gail Simone's the writer, Cheshire will always get what's coming to her.
* [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulative Bitch]]: She purposefully nuked Qurac because she knew if anyone would try to call her out on it they would have to remember she destroyed a country considered to be the terrorist capital of the world and may have considered it a blessing. She basically killed millions just to troll everyone.
%%* MasterPoisoner
* MaternallyChallenged: Subverted. When she was taking care of Lian, and later Tommy, she didn't exactly mistreat or abuse them. But the general implications are that she only does so to carry on the facade of actually giving a shit about them so she can keep using and hurting their fathers. If it looks like she doesn't love her kids, then there's no reason for their dads to give a crap about her. Her original plan for Lian was to use her mere existence to torment Roy Harper as revenge for walking out on her, and Tommy's conception was so she'd at least have one child after leaving the Six and so Catman would have a reason to protect her when she betrayed the team. Gail Simone describes Cheshire as having a lizard-like mentality with her kids: the moment they become a detriment to her freedom, all bets are off.
* TheMillstone: Almost any time a story is being done about Roy and Lian Harper, chances are the main source of drama will come from their relation to Cheshire. Roy will angst over the fact that he was in love with a genocidal maniac and that Lian will hve to deal with the fact that her mother is a manipulative bitch who could never stop hurting others even if she wanted to (which is not very likely). Some authors have tried to get Roy to move past his old relationship, while others have ignored those movements forward for the sake of cheap drama. ''The Trial Of Cheshire'' in the first ''Titans'' volume is a decent example of this.
* MoralityPet: Her daughter Lian, and later her son by Catman, Thomas Jr.. [[spoiler:Now Lian is dead, and Catman convinced her that her son was too, so the MoralityChain may be severed]]. However, when Lian's safety was held over head to ensure her cooperation with the team, she was more than willing to conceive a replacement child just to leave the Six and betray them.
* MoralEventHorizon: In-universe it's usually considered to be her nuking {{Qurac}} ForTheEvulz in ''Deathstroke #19''.
* MuggingTheMonster: The mercenary who went after her and tried to rape her probably should have read up on her history first. Let's just say it doesn't end well for him.
-->'''Cheshire''': To be fair, he ''does'' have the kind of face that looks better in rictus.
* PoisonedWeapons: Tends to use her fingernails, among other things.
%%* PsychoForHire


Added DiffLines:

* TokenEvilTeammate: When she was part of the Six.
* TookALevelInDumbass: Jade always had a rather eloquent vernacular, but following ''Rise of Arsenal'' and starting in ''Villains for Hire'' her vocabulary suddenly became extremely limited and she started swearing more frequently.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Troll}}: It doesn't get any pettier than blowing up the terrorist capital of the world just to prove you could and for laughing in the face of global hypocrisy.
* WomanScorned: This is the whole reason she had Lian. The next time she met Roy Harper after their relationship ended, she told him about their child, a child she was never going to let him see as revenge. And when Roy ''did'' meet Lian, Jade changed her plan to taunting Roy by giving him the barest of details on Lian's development but never letting him see her again.

* DarkerAndEdgier: After he became the Gargoyle he became much more twisted and wicked, which was inevitable considering his powers were now linked to an EldritchAbomination called the Antithesis. When Twister returned in ''ComicBook/TitansHunt2015'', he was back to being Mister Twister but retained the creepiness he developed as the Gargoyle.

A serial child molester who could hypnotize people with his voice. Originally locked up in Arkham Asylum, he was accidentally freed by Cinder which allowed him to resume harming children.

* AbortedArc: There was a plan for Cinder to find Nursery Cryme again after he escaped, but the series was cancelled before that happened.

* EvilerThanThou: Compared to the other Villains for Hire, and even some of the other bad guys on this page.
* HarmfulToMinors: A chronic, unrepentant child rapist.
* KarmaHoudini: Escapes from Arkham with no repercussions, and since the series ended before Cinder found him again, it meant he was never punished for presumably raping more children.
* NoodleIncident: It's implied he had a past run-in with Cinder since she was especially fixated on killing him when the team arrived at Arkham, and he even knew her real name.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Was never mentioned before his first appearance in ''Titans'' yet presumably had a history in Gotham City and with Batman.
* SmugSnake: He only uses his power to keep Cinder from leaving his cell until he's clear of the asylum, even thanking for her setting him free and reminding her that every new child he victimizes will be on her head.

Introduced
[[folder:Godiva]]
A mercenary assassin who debuted
in the ComicBook/{{New 52}} series. Leader same issue as Danny Chase, what set Godiva apart from the rest of the organization NOWHERE, Titans' RoguesGallery was that she was much more comedic but still totally insane. Claiming to be a princess born from a Chinese prince and an African princess, Godiva acted like she was the star of her own show and would have her every move recorded by a series of replaceable henchmen she called "Video" so she could watch herself for her amusement. She could control minds and developed an attraction to Cyborg, which kidnaps metahuman teens to build an army of said teens, have a few half trained ones escape and spark a panic regarding them, so they can come in and save the day. he loathed.


Added DiffLines:

* AbhorrentAdmirer: To Cyborg.
* AxCrazy: Was completely insane, and even aware of it.
* BadBoss: Has nonchalantly murdered henchmen and workers for committing such offenses as smoking and eating red meat in her presence. She's also implied to go through a string of "Videos" because she either kills them or abandons them when it's convenient for her.
* BerserkButton: Three. Don't ever stop filming her because she is the center of attention, don't ever smoke around her, and don't ever eat red meat around her or she ''will'' kill you.
* CardCarryingVillain: When she threatened to blow up a satellite and kill everyone in the vicinity.
-->'''Danny Chase''': You're really that crazy, aren't you?
-->'''Godiva''': Yeah, I really am.
* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: Subverted. She never actually makes Cyborg sleep with her, but she still uses her mind control abilities to kiss him while under her thrall and has entertained the idea of having fun with him while in that state. Whether she actually does things like that when controlling people is up for debate. For the most part, Cyborg hates her and was horrified when she began controlling him again.
* {{Hypocrite}}: Calls the dictators she's robbing and then going to kill "Nasty" and "Petty." The irony is completely lost on her.
* InsaneTrollLogic: She kills a construction worker for eating a sandwich containing red meat because, as she puts it, he's hurting himself. Which also hurts her. Which means ''he's'' hurting ''her''.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Her various palaces are built with monitors and TV screens in every room so she can watch Video filming her, and almost killed one Video when he briefly stopped filming her.
* LargeHam: Her EstablishingCharacterMoment has her posing on a motorcycle while her thugs beat up the Chase Family.
-->'''Godiva''': No no Video... hold. Ahh, now... the moonlight is just perfect. Tonight, dear Video, shoot the entire roll. Godiva feels particularly gorgeous. Ahh, Godiva. An alabaster moon splashed against silken flesh. The other girls must be soooo jealous.
* LighterAndSofter: What sets her apart from Deathstroke, Cheshire, and the Fearsome Five is that her defining entertainment factor is how campy and ridiculous she is while still being totally insane and unpredictable. She also lacks any of the moral grey areas found in Deathstroke and Cheshire. There's absolutely nothing good or redeemable about her, but by damn she is hilarious and entertaining.
* {{Narcissist}}: She could probably give the original deal a run for his money with how much time she spends fixated on herself. For added effect, she'll often be seen walking around with a hand mirror held up to her face.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: She appears goofy and ridiculous, but she successfully outfoxed the Titans and a number of dictators and tyrants in her first appearance. And as the rest of the entries make clear, she can easily make people kill each other and will shoot someone in the back just for smoking.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: She's no less dangerous when she's happy, but if her smile falters you better believe someone's gonna die.
* PeoplePuppets: When she focuses on someone, she can take hold of their mind and absorb everything in it, either turning them into mindless zombies forever or making them do her bidding until she lets them go.
* {{Sadist}}: After kidnapping Danny Chase's parents to get the information she needed, she beat it out of Mr. Chase by making Mrs. Chase torture him into talking.
* TakeAThirdOption: She was hired to destroy a powerful satellite. Then decided she could make more money by stealing the satellite and selling it the highest bidder. ''Then'' she decided to just the rob the people she was going to auction the satellite off to, and then kill them.

Deathstroke]]



Deathstroke is the world's greatest assassin/mercenary and one of most famous enemy of the Teen Titans. Originally a soldier in the U.S. Army, he was part of an experimental super-soldier project where he gained enhanced strength, agility and intelligence. His vendetta against the Titans began when he swore revenge for the death of his oldest son Grant; his two other children would go on to become Titans members as Jericho and Ravager. Traditionally his actions have been limited by a strong personal code of honor, although his motives became more villainous following the death of his wife Adeline Kane. Through this time his only steady companion is his loyal manservant Major Wintergreen. He has been a member of Checkmate, H.I.V.E., the Injustice League, the Secret Society of Super-Villains, the Titans and Titans East.

->'''AKA:''' Komand'r

Starfire's older sister, Komand'r is bitter, sadistic, and out for her younger sibling's blood. Born the day that The Citadel attacked Tamaran, and later crippled by a childhood illness that left her unable to fly, Komand'r was abhorred by the people of Tamaran, and passed over in favour of Koriand'r. She eventually betrayed her planet to The Citadel, after which she and her sister were both captured by the Psions and granted their starbolt powers. Starfire became a heroine, while Blackfire turned to supervillainy, trying to conquer Tamaran and eliminate her sister.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Blackfire is turned into a AntiHero of sorts in the New 52 reboot. Even her animated incarnation, while still very much a villain, omits the cruel acts committed by her comic book counterpart.
* {{Archenemy}}: Introduced as Starfire's, though they're on better terms now.
* CainAndAbel: The Cain to Starfire's Abel.
* DrivenByEnvy: Envy of Starfire is her driving motivation. It start when all of her privileges, honors, and celebration were later given to her younger sister.
* EvilCounterpart: To Starfire.
* EvilCripple: It's not visible to us, but Blackfire's inability to fly is a serious handicap in Tamaran society.
* EvilRedhead: As Starfire's evil sister, this is to be expected.
* {{The Evil Prince}}ss: She was first in line to inherit the position as Queen, but the fact that she was born without the superpowers that are common on her planet make her seem weak, so her younger sister Starfire becomes first in line. This does not sit well with Blackfire, who then sells her into slavery to get rid of her.
* {{Expy}}: To Franchise/XMen's villain Deathbird, who precedes Blackfire's creation by three years, and just like her is also an evil alien princess driven by hatred for her younger, more heroic sister.
* FreudianExcuse: As the first princess born in centuries, her birth should have been a joyous event. Then, on the day she was born, the Citadel annihilated a city on Tamaran and slaughtered three thousands people ''in her name'', linking her inextricably to the tragedy, ''and'' she was robbed of the ability to fly by a childhood illness. Because of this, she was hated by everyone, denied her birthright and treated as a villain [[ThenLetMeBeEvil until she decided to be one]].
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Actually subverted. Her better understanding of the darker sides of politics and hard-line attitude make her not only a better queen than Myand'r, but a more popular one as well.
* HandBlast: As her sister Starfire, it is her main attack.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Started out as a villain, but underwent an epiphany in later ''New Teen Titans'' issues, realizing that she was wrong for her jealousy against her sister and vowing to rule Tamaran fairly. However, she'd go back to being a villain by the time of the ''Rann/Thanagar War'' miniseries (after having been believed dead and not having appeared for many years) and murdered Hawkwoman. By the time of R.E.B.E.L.S, she slid into being more of an AntiVillain. In the ''New 52'' continuity, she seems to have the alignment of the AntiHero.
* HumanAliens: Tamaranians are indistinguishable from humans, save the solid green eyes and spray-tan color skin.
* PowerOfTheSun: Blackfire's alien physiology constantly absorbs ultraviolet radiation and converts it to energy.
* TheResenter: Towards Starfire, and most other Tamarans for that matter.
* SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains: {{Inverted}} with her sister: Blackfire wears a full bodysuit, while her more heroic sister wears what amounts to a skimpy swimsuit.

* SiblingRivalry: The [[Pantheon/{{Family}} Goddess]]!
* StrongerSibling: She can't fly, but her starbolts are actually significantly more powerful than Starfire's.
* ThenLetMeBeEvil: She was treated as a villain by the Tamaraneans for no fault of her, with her birthright bestowed upon Starfire (who, ironically, was one of the few who ''didn't'' hate her). One day, Blackfire ''snapped'' and became the villain she had been treated as, starting with attempting to murder Starfire.

* LegacyCharacter: Sebastian was the ninth individual to assume the name of Brother Blood.
* MegaManning: He has absorbs powers through [[OurVampiresAreDifferent drinking blood]].
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: After biting and drinking the blood of a victim, Blood gains their abilities such as Superboy's strength or a demon's healing factor.
* ReligionOfEvil: He leads a cult who focuses magic through [[BloodMagic bloodletting]]. He revealed that the Cult of Blood was based on the worship of Trigon the Terrible. It was for this reason that the new Bride of Blood was to be Raven.
* RetCon: His origin. Claims to be the son of the original Brother Blood, although when that villain was last seen in the ''New Titans'', the only child he had was an infant ''daughter''. Of course, maybe this Sebastian was sired earlier and with another mother...
** Also, for his entire religion. Originally a generic cult, GeoffJohns retconned them into Trigon-worshipers.
* SelfMadeOrphan: As is tradition for the High Priest of the Church of Blood. While still a teenager, Sebastian stabbed his father to death, after the latter's failed attempt to take over the Slab and abduct a million infants. He dumped Blood's body into the river and assumed the mantle of Brother Blood.

* AsianBabymama: So nice she did it twice: once with Arsenal, and once with Catman.
* MamaBear: And not just to people trying to hurt her kids. She once staged an elaborate plot to ruin and murder ComicBook/BlackCanary because Canary had developed into a psuedo-surrogate mother figure for her daughter.
** Well, at least until their safety proves more of a burden and a liability. At which point she'll go out of her way to conceive a replacement kid, and use that pregnancy as a shield.
** EvilMatriarch: To be fair, staging an elaborate plot to murder the women whom is her daughter's surrogate mother-figure doesn't necessarily make her a MamaBear. Cheshire was espousing that she had plans to retire, and getting Black Canary out of the way would've made things less complicated for ''her''.
* IHaveAFamily: She's invoked this a couple of times. A standard defense is to remind Roy Harper that she is the mother of his child, which was useful even after Lian died. In ''Secret Six'', she attempted this on Jeannette while being dangled off a building. Jeannette could ''not'' have cared less.
* PunchClockVillain: In the 80s, before [[MoralEventHorizon she nuked a country.]]
* ToxicFriendInfluence: Well, Toxic Ex-Girlfriend Influence on Roy Harper. She eagerly manipulates their past relationship and the fact that she had his daughter just about every time they meet, with key moments being in ''Rise of Arsenal'' and the second ''Titans'' book. In the former Jade had shown up to kill Roy because of Lian's death, but if she hadn't said "our baby is gone" after she'd been cornered, Roy may have very well killed her. In ''Titans'', Roy only joined Deathstroke's team because Cheshire said he "owed" her for Lian's death.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: In ''Villains United'', she was blackmailed into compliance by threats against Lian's safety. Over the course of the miniseries she successfully seduced Catman and managed to conceive a replacement baby in order to betray and leave the Secret Six with Lian's welfare no longer being an issue (that she cared about). It turned out the threat was false, but she didn't know that.

* IDidWhatIHadToDo: She's completely aware of the fact that she is an awful person willing to kill innocents to get to child molesters and serial rapists in high places, yet this is all just stemming the tide until she can finally die herself.
* KnightTemplar: She uses her magma powers to kill sex offenders, but goes as far to as willingly have sex with them so she can burn off their reproductive organs using her vagina, which itself was completely unnecessary since she was alone with her victim.
* {{Narcissist}}: As far as a FlatCharacter can go, she's utterly self-absorbed and knows nothing but hating herself and hunting down rapists to stem the tide until she can satisfy her death wish.
* [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice Job Breaking It Antihero/Villain]]: She attempted to murder a child molester named Nursery Cryme but ended up letting him free by accident.
* PlayingWithFire: Her powers are listed as heat and magma generation.
* RapeAsBackstory: Was raped by her uncle at 14.
* SurvivorGuilt: Her suffering began when she watched her brothers die in an explosion in the field she herself played in numerous times, wondering why she was spared but not them.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Subverted due to the emphasis on "extremist" and the fact that the "well intentioned" part gradually became more and more shallow, until it was clear she only goes out of her way to hunt down rapists and child molesters because she has nothing better to do until she can find a way to die for good.

It consists of kidnapping metahumans (and [[TheEveryman some people off the street]]), forcing them into a ''battle royal'' to determine the 'best', which he then makes his private army.

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: He wants his organization to be this. However, he himself looks like the GrimReaper in a TronLines suit.

[[WMG:H.I.V.E.]]

[[WMG:Mad Mod]]
->'''AKA:''' Neil Richards

* HeelFaceTurn: Eventually ended up doing this.
----

[[WMG:Mister Twister / Gargoyle]]
->'''AKA:''' Bromwell Stikk
* StarterVillain: Aqualad, Robin and Kid Flash's battle with Mister Twister would inspire the formation of the the Teen Titans.
* TookALevelInBadass: Was a much bigger threat as Gargoyle than he ever was as Mister Twister.
----

[[WMG:Sun Girl]]
->'''AKA:''' Deborah Morgna

* AllThereInTheManual: Apparently a master manipulator, though we don't get to actually see too much of her personality other than her rivalry with Miss Martian. Slade's notes (given in a ''Wizard'' magazine article previewing the arc) claim that she reminds him of the original Terra, as well as his daughter Rose.
* ArchEnemy: Of Miss Martian, who she claims will bring doom to the future that she hails from, so she must kill her to prevent it from happening. But she also claims that she and Inertia have also made Miss Martian their slave to torment.
** It's implied that because of whatever Miss Martian did, White Martians in the future were now treated as slaves, and Deborah was more or less Miss Martian's owner.
* EvilRedhead
* LegacyCharacter: Is from the 60th century and a descendant of Dirk Morgna (Sun Boy from ''ComicBook/{{Legion of Super-Heroes}}'') in some way.
* PlayingWithFire: Can harness the very power of the sun to supply her with fire and heat.

[[WMG:The Terror Titans]]

* AttentionWhore: Disruptor.
* BeAWhoreToGetYourMan: Disruptor has a psychotic obsession with latching onto the man she believes to be the most powerful or useful for her.
* DaddysGirl: Persuader.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Originally, no one respected Dreadbolt as leader since he never technically killed anyone.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Persuader murdered her abusive mother, but genuinely loved her dad.
* LegacyCharacter: They're supposed to be related to the villains whose names they share, but only Dreadbolt is actually related to Bolt. Persuader was told that she's supposedly an ascendant of the first Persuader from the 31st Century.
* SelfMadeOrphan: Dreadbolt killed his father.
* TheSociopath: Copperhead.
* {{Spinoff}}: Actually received their own miniseries.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: Originally. That changed when Clock King killed Disruptor and then abandoned them.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Out of all of them, Disruptor.
* TheVamp: Disruptor tries to be this.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Dreadbolt, up until he killed his dad.
* WouldHurtAChild: Copperhead allowed his baby brother to drown in a bathtub.

[[WMG:Trident]]

* CollectiveIdentity: He was actually three separate individuals masquerading as a single villain.
* KilledOffForReal: Sammy Jaye, one of the trio, was later murdered by his partners for holding out on them after a big score
* NoNameGiven: The third member, after Sammy and the Prof, is unnamed.

[[WMG:Trigon the Terrible]]
[[quoteright:400:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/b1f01f1e2b321eb0343f7d576aa64db2.jpg]]

Raven's father, Trigon is an interdimensional demon lord who can only enter the real world through her psyche. Bent on annihilating all life, his plans typically orbit around subverting Raven to his will.
----
* AbusiveParent: He is a devil after all.
* {{Archenemy}}: To his daughter, Raven. He'd also finish in second place for the team as a whole, since besides Slade, there's nobody the Titans hate more, and there is no one, including Slade, who they fear more.
* ArchnemesisDad: Trigon impregnated Raven's mother by raping her, shattered his daughter's psyche in order to enter the real world, and makes regular attempts to brain control her and murder all of her friends.
* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Trigon towered over 75 feet tall in "Terror of Trigon".
* BigBad: Of the first ''New Teen Titans'' story arc; he was the reason Raven assembled the Titans to begin with. He returns in "The Terror of Trigon", and has been the big bad of several other arcs as well. In terms of power and scope he is, generally speaking, the biggest bad the Titans have ever faced. By many accounts, he's one of the most powerful villains in the DC Universe and has beaten down Superman '''and''' Wonder Woman in ''ComicBook/InjusticeGodsAmongUs''.
* BigRedDevil: Classic example.
* TheCorrupter: To Raven, who he then used to corrupt several Titans using his seeds.
* DemonLordsAndArchDevils: Just how much of a demon lord he is depends on the writer, though. Some accounts have him as the demonic master of his very own dimension, while others claim that he's simply the devil of the eighth layer of Hell.
* DemonicPossession: Has done it to Raven and numerous others.
* TheDreaded: From the perspective of the Titans and the people of Azarath anyway.
* ExtraEyes: Has two sets of eyes sitting atop one another. Those he is controlling gain the same trait as a mark of their possession.
* GodOfEvil: Sees himself as such.
* HornedHumanoid: Features antlers.
* JokerImmunity: He gets defeated and slain several times, but he has become such an iconic villain, the writers usually find a way to bring him back.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Trigon the Terrible.
* OmnicidalManiac: Annihilated an entire universe in order to keep himself alive, and later tries to do the same to Earth.
* PhysicalGod: Trigon is at least in {{ComicBook/Darkseid}}'s realm when it comes to raw power, and may actually be even more powerful, given some of what he did in "Terror of Trigon". Typically, the only way to defeat him is to magically reseal him inside of Raven's mind.
* {{Satan}}: In "Terror of Trigon" he claims to be the inspiration for Satan, though given how much Trigon likes to talk himself up he may well be lying.
* SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: The only way Trigon can access the real world is via possessing Raven. Most of the time he is sealed within her mind.
----

[[WMG:The Sons of Trigon]]

* EyeBeams
* HatePlague: Their main ability.
* SevenDeadlySins: Their villain names with Raven occupying the position of Pride.
----

[[WMG:The Wildebeest Society]]

* CollectiveIdentity: Their original M.O.
* TheRemnant: Most of those recruited by the original Wildebeest leader were former H.I.V.E. agents who believed their main goal was [[AvengingTheVillain to take vengeance for H.I.V.E.]]
