History Characters / LegionOfSuperHeroesBronzeAge

** Even though he and Dawnstar love each other, his status as an (basically) immortal energy being leads to their relationship being very difficult, and not just in the physical way. He's willing, even encouraging toward allow her to find something closer to home--but the thought doesn't make him happy.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Decided to let his pre-accident girlfriend continue believing he was dead in order to allow her to move on and find love again.

* BrokenAngel: Dawnstar in v4 lost her wings [[spoiler: after being possessed for three years by Bounty, a thrill-seeking entity that used her tracking powers to go into business as a bounty hunter]]. The reason for this was never explained.

* {{Flight}}: Dawnstar and other Starhavenites have pairs of large, white-feathered wings that grow out of their upper backs, the result of genetic engineering. In deep space, she can travel at faster-than-light speeds. In an Earth-normal atmosphere or in a sizable gravity well, her speed is diminished.

* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Due in large part to her own uncertainties about Drake and his [[EnergyBeing condition]].

* StarCrossedLovers: With Wildfire as he is sentient energy trapped inside a containment suit. [[spoiler:And then later animating a corpse]]. No nookie here.

* LastOfHisKind: Blok is possibly the last of his people, convinced at first by The Dark Man that the Legion was trying to destroy Dryad when they were actually trying to save it.
* {{Metamorphosis}}: Knowing nothing of his race, he suspects he may be entering a pupal form of some sort after his body starts undergoing strange changes.

* OnlySaneMan: Since the Dark Man's brainwashing didn't take as well, he was disturbed by the cruelty and violence of his comrades in the Super-Assassins.

* LeotardOfPower

* {{Protectorate}}: As a youth, she worked as a guide, bounty hunter and tracker-for-hire, devoting her earnings to funding Starhaven's defenses against the hostile planets of the Core. She agreed to join the Legion Academy after Brande offered her a matching salary.

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Although he understands good and evil. He finds the nuances of organic behavior difficult to understand at times.

* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: He's got a talent for putting these together and making them effective. Examples include the Legion of Substitute Heroes, and he band he put together to overthrow Evillo's Tyranny of Tartarus.

* BolivianArmyEnding: The last time he was on Teall, his fellow Teallians were going to inflict DeathOfPersonality on him in order to destroy his individuality and he barely managed to trick his way back on to his spaceship. When Emerald Empress destroys his ship, he's forced to return once more to survive.

* UnskilledButStrong: His power is useful and versatile, but it has a couple of glaring limitations, namely a limited posession time and the destruction of whatever he possesses. Quislet refuses to train it any further because he regards himself as perfect already.

* LastOfHisKind: Blok is possibly the last of his people, convinced at first by The Dark Man that the Legion was trying to destroy Dryad, but they were actually trying to save it.

* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Essentially. Marzal having been populated by would-be slaves who'd overcome their captors, then having what little contact they had with the outside world tend to be highly negative led to misunderstandings about society which needed to be cleared up before Troy could trust the Legion.

* LastOfHisKind: Marzal originated on an Earth that was destroyed during the Crisis, leaving its people the only survivors of that world. Later, the Dominators destroyed Marzal, leaving Troy as one of the few survivors.

The only member if his race to survive the destruction of the planet Dryad, Blok's stony physiology makes him incredibly strong and durable. He is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, although he originally appeared as a member of the League of Super-Assassins, a group of brainwashed villains who were tricked and brainwashed by the Dark Man into thinking the doomed planet Dryad had been destroyed by the Legion. Unlike the other members, he was a native of said planet. His long-term romantic interest is the White Witch.

Born the last of his race on Dryad, his stony physiology makes him incredibly strong and durable. He is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, although he originally appeared as a member of the League of Super-Assassins, a group of brainwashed villains who were tricked and brainwashed by the Dark Man into thinking the doomed planet Dryad had been destroyed by the Legion. Unlike the other members, he was a native of said planet. His long-term romantic interest is the White Witch.

During the Five-Year Gap, he stuck with the Legion, until he couldn't accept Earthgov's abuse of tyhem anymore, and formed a resistance cell against the corrupt government, which several former Legionnaires and Subs would end up joining. He also married Drura Sept, aka Infectious Lass. It was he who gave the speech which convinced the lower castes of Dominator society to no longer support the oppressive ruling class who were pressuring them into war.

* ScarilyCompetentTracker: Dawnstar is a master tracker and can track life forms and objects across light years of distance and through interstellar space. She can even use this ability while unconscious, asleep, under mind control, intoxicated and sensory blinded.

* NoBiochemicalBarriers: Zigzagged. Although Lyle Norg's invisibility serum had been specifically tuned to his genetic profile, Jacques managed to safely drink it without a fatal allergic reaction, and even gain invisibility as Norg did. However, he ''also'' developed uncontrollable and adrenaline-triggered teleportation/dimensional travel, presenting a different danger altogether.

* ReluctantRuler: He hated being President of New Earth and happily left Tyroc in charge the first chance he got.

* {{Metamorphosis}}: Knowing nothing of his race, he suspects he may be in a pupal form of some sort after his body starts undergoing strange changes.

* PossessionBurnout: He can only possess objects for a short amount of time, and the objects disintegrate after he leaves them, except for his ship. As an example, he's used this property to disintegrate missiles.

* WasOnceAMan: Drake was originally an astroengineering student. While he was working on a new propulsion system, the unit's safety valve snapped and discharged a blast of anti-matter energy. He was engulfed instantly but somehow his consciousness survived and Drake found himself transformed into a being of pure anti-energy.

* AbsoluteCleavage

** He is highly resistant to telepathic attack or possession, as when Esper Lass failed to possess him during the attack of the Legion of Super-Villains.

* HeroWorshiper: Idolized his brother his entire life, even though they didn't travel the same path at first.
* InterspeciesFriendship: He forged one with his roommate Grev Mallor aka Shadow Lad as his Academy roomie, and another with Tellus during his days as a member of the Legion.

During the Magic War, when a sacrifice was necessary to lower the barrier the Archmage had placed around the Sorcerer's World of Zerox, Pol offered himself up without hesitation. This action would prove instrumental in saving the galaxy from the Archmage.

Pol Krinn is Magnetic Kid, the younger brother of Rokk Krinn aka ComicBook/CosmicBoy. He became a student of the Legion Academy after a terrorist "fireballing" (think firebombing but nuclear-based) killed his and Rokk's mother, then joined the Legion after his brother retired to an advisory position.

* ForceAndFinesse: Trained his powers toward the latter in order to differentiate himself from his brother.

* TheBusCameBack: Marzal (and thus Tyroc) returned to our dimension after the Dominators used recordings of Tyroc's voice to attack the Khunds, and accidentally summoned it back. Then they Dominators [[BackForTheDead destroyed the island]] claiming it was full of Khund sympathizers. Fortunately Tyroc and a few others survived. Ouch.

* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Essentially. Marzal having been populated by would-be slaves who'd overcome their captors, then having little contact with the world outside its pocket dimension led to a few misunderstandings about society which needed to be cleared up before Troy could trust the Legion.

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:In 5YL, he was deeply shocked to see the state of Dirk's body when he possessed it, and too ashamed of his technical desecration of the dead to come clean to his teammates and Dawkstar about it]].

->'''AKA:''' Yera Allon
->'''Homeworld:''' Durla
->'''Abilities:''' Shapeshifting

The wife of Gim Allon aka Colossal Boy. Being a native of Durla, Chameleon Girl has the power of shape-shifting. She is also an accomplished actress and once posed as Legionnaire Shrinking Violet for an extended period of time.
----
* ActionGirl: Disguising herself as a Legionnaire meant going on Legion missions, and she pitched in as well as the real Violet.
* DistaffCounterpart: To Chameleon Boy, natch.
* FantasticRacism: As a Durlan she's on the receiving end of this. She fights it by proving how talented an actress she can be.
* FantasticVoyagePlot: Yera-as-Violet shrinks to get into the "Lydea Mallor" clone's body and expands enough to give the Servant of Darkness a fatal stroke.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Orange skinned.
* HappilyMarried: To Colossal Boy. The pair fell in love and secretly married while Yera was pretending to be Violet. There ''have'' been a couple of rough patches--like when he insisted on staying an active Legionnaire after being crippled.
* InterspeciesRomance: As mentioned above.
* KryptoniteFactor: Like all Durlans, being hit by a chemical called "cancelite" neutralizes her powers until its cleaned off.
* TheMole[=/=]AWolfInSheepsClothing: Impersonated Shrinking Violet when Violet was kidnapped. Yera was not told of their plans and didn't believe she was assisting in any crime. She ended up marrying Colossal Boy while in disguise, although the marriage did not end when she was revealed.
** EasilyForgiven: Justified, as she not only had started to question her superior's orders, but had done none of what she did out of malice. However, it's been a plot point that Shrinking Violet is not fond of her at all, to the point of flat out warning Yera to never use her form again no matter what. In the Five Years Later Legion Vi and Yera reconciled their differences, but in the Johnsboot Legion Myg (the second Karate Kid) pointed out the tension between Vi and Yera as an example of how the Legion is a joke.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She was hired under the premise that Shrinking Violet had just wanted to go on a vacation in secret, and was horrified to learn the truth.
* OutOfCharacterAlert: Suddenly after years of turning him down, Violet became romantically interested and flirtatious with Colossal Boy. Gim may have been too happy to notice how odd this sudden change was, but it was one of a number of mistakes that eventually led his teammates to uncover Yera's imposture.
* ParentalMarriageVeto: Averted. Gim's parents were surprised he married a Durlan, but they were fine with it. They ''do'' want any kids to be raised Jewish, though.
* PowerPerversionPotential: Implied during her first night with Colossal Boy after the truth came out.
* {{Sizeshifter}}: Part of her shapeshifting abilities. She couldn't get as small as the ''real'' Violet could, but she could get small enough that no one could tell the difference.
* SuperSenses: Yera, like all Durlans, scans the molecular structure of any object or person she encounters via the invisible emanations emitted from her antennae.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Like all Durlans, Yera possesses the ability to transform her body's size, shape and color to mimic any person, creature or object in the universe. Naturally she cannot duplicate super-powers.

->'''AKA''' Grava
->'''Homeworld:''' Extal
->'''Abilities:''' Superfast Flight (including though the vacuum of space), a degree of invulnerability, Stun "Comet" Gas release

Comet Queen was a member of the Legion Academy. She "Graduated" to the Legion of Substitute Heroes. Post 52 reboot the Subs membership may have been retconned. She was recently inducted into the Legion.
----
* AscendedFangirl: Wanted to be a Legionnare, to the point she went though a dangerous comet trail just in the hopes of giving herself powers, which ended up paying off. Decades later real-world time, after stints as both a legion cadet and a Substitute Legionnaire, she finally became a full fledged Legionnaire post reboot.
* FlamingHair: Constantly emitting a fiery-looking gas of some sort from her head. Fortunately for everyone around her it's not poisonous or flammable unless she wants it to be.
* {{Flight}}: She has great skill in flying, showing hairline maneuvering through various obstacles at high speeds. Grava has a small force field that surrounds her body when she flies allowing her to resist friction.
* FutureSlang: Peppers her speech with it.
* GenkiGirl: Thoroughly jazzed about the Legion.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Orange skinned. Maybe a bit odder-looking than some.
* KnockoutGas / SmokeOut: She can generate various gases from the trail off her head. One is a gas that blots out light allowing her to escape or hide. Another gas she uses induces sleepiness.
* LoonyFan: Of the Legion.
* ManchurianAgent: [[spoiler: Retroboot, during the second New 52 arc thanks to a post-hypnotic suggestion left by Saturn Queen to betray the legion at her first opportunity]].
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: She's apparently got seventeen podling-sisters. According to her pod mother she's the only unusual one, personality-wise.
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: Teased with Polar Boy.
* SeparatedByACommonLanguage: Her constant use of slang makes it hard for people to understand what she's saying sometimes.
* SuperSpeed: She is able to fly at super-speeds while trailing a stream of stellar energy, much like a comet does.
* ValleyGirl: She's basically a futuristic version of one. She speaks her own brand of slang, much to the annoyance of nearly everyone she's around because half the time they have no idea what she's talking about.
* VerbalTic: Makes quite a few cosmos, particularly star, related statements in her speech. It's unknown if this is a normal thing on Extal or if it's just her.
* ViolationOfCommonSense: "I wanna be in the Legion! I know! Star Boy got super-powers from the flaming tail of a comet once, so I'll go into space, strip naked and jump into the first comet I see!" She apparently forgot, didn't realize, or didn't care that Star Boy had been in a ''spaceship'' at the time.

->'''AKA:''' Berta Skye Haris.
->'''Homeworld:''' Earth (Possibly)
->'''Abilities:''' Air creation and manipulation, thermal vision.

Depending on which source you go with, Berta is either from a small tribe on another planet with the power to control wind, or has a recessive genetic anomaly which pops up in female members of her family.

Her first attempts to join the Legion failed, and she began to attend the Legion Academy with several other rejects.

During the Bronze Age, Berta began cultivating a more mature and somber attitude (as well as a different appearance) which she hoped would help her gain entry into the Legion at last.

During the Five-Year Gap, she finally joined the Legion during their last big membership drive, only for the team to disband shortly after. Offered a teaching position at the Legion Academy by Chuck and Luornu, her former teachers, she became the harshest, most successful trainer there.

During 5YL she was chosen to lead a reconnaissance mission into the Khund invasion, where she and her squad were massacred.
----
* BlowYouAway: Her powers.
* CharacterDevelopment: Started out a flighty, bubbly type, with a flirtatious attitude (much like Comet Queen), but in her later appearances she was a lot more driven and somber. According to her Who's Who, she's cultivating this mature attitude in order to impress the Legion. After her membership and during 5YL, however, she's got a lot to be legitimately serious about.
* CListFodder: Killed fighting Khunds in 5YL.
* DrillSergeantNasty: When training troops during 5YL.
* FacialMarkings: Around her eyes, after her appearance change.
* {{Flight}}: Can make the wind carry her.
* InnateNightVision: Some sources say she's got a thermal vision ability, allowing her to see the currents of wind and use her powers more effectively.
* MonochromaticEyes: Solid blue before and solid white after her appearance change (though the artist forgot sometimes).
* MultipleChoicePast, Some stories go with the {{Mutant|s}} backstory below, others say she's from a small tribe on another planet where everyone has wind powers. She herself claimed that her grandmother gave her her powers once, which doesn't exactly add up and may have been changed.
* {{Mutants}}: She says her powers come from a certain genetic anomaly that occasionally pops up amongst females of her bloodline. If she's not [[MultipleChoicePast an alien]], this may explain her appearance.
* SympathyForTheDevil: Downplayed as Wildfire is far from a devil, but he is a harsh teacher with an abrasive attitude. After hearing his story and realizing just how much of a wreck his life had become after being turned into living energy, she and Lamprey developed a strong sense of empathy for him. At one point they even got into a physical altercation with Laurel Kent and Comet Queen when they bad-mouthed the guy.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: Her appearance radically changes between issues, as does her personality. Welcome to minor character-hood in the Legion!

[[folder: Dawnstar]]
[[quoteright:202:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dawnstar.jpg]]
->'''Homeworld:''' Starhaven

Born on the planet Starhaven colonized centuries earlier by Native Americans, her abilities include flight and long-range tracking. Her longest-running relationship is with teammate Wildfire.

[[folder: Tyroc]]
[[quoteright:232:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tyroc.png]]
->'''AKA:''' Troy Stewart
->'''Homeworld:''' Marzal
->'''Abilities:''' Sonic manipulation

Born on Earth, he has reality-warping screams that give him many different abilities. His home is the racial separatist island Marzal. They are a highly advanced society descended from African slaves, who exist in a dimension that only appears to Earth once every several years. During the apocryphal Five Years Later era, he briefly succeeded Invisible Kid to become President of Earth. There is no counterpart to Tyroc in Reboot Legion continuity. In Prime Legion continuity, Tyroc is briefly depicted as an urban legend.
----
* AbsoluteCleavage
* AngryBlackMan: Even though it takes place in the year 3000. Notably, the writers and artists were all painfully aware of how this trope was being played in a setting where racism should've been eliminated, but were forced to portray Tyroc as such due to the ExecutiveMeddling.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Paul Levitz, despite ignoring him in the 1980s, has devoted enough effort in the current Legion volume to move Tyroc beyond his previous "angry black man" personality and make him likable. For the most part, it's worked.
* CollaredByFashion
* CommonalityConnection: Both he (protector of Marzal) and Shadow Lass (protector of Talok VIII) clicked right away.
* HumansAreWhite: In the Silver Age, the Legion of Super-Heroes featured many aliens but no black human or {{Human Alien|s}} members. Tyroc was added as the AngryBlackMan that was a common sort of TokenMinority back in the day. Supposedly, in the 30th century, the world is above caring about things like race, but the [[ExecutiveMeddling meddling executives]], very much of that point in the 20th century, weren't quite up to having a black character as just another guy instead of The Black Guy.
-->"I always wanted to have a character who was African-American, and years later, when they did that, they did it in the worst way possible....instead of just incidentally having a character who happens to be black...they made a big fuss about it. He's a racial separatist....I just found it pathetic and appalling." -Creator/JimShooter
* LeotardOfPower
* MakeMeWannaShout: He possesses a sonic scream; the pitch, volume, and words of his scream could initially vary to produce a variety of different effects.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: His superpowered screams can do basically whatever the writer likes. He could do nearly anything, from teleportation to pyrokinesis to... making it rain glue. The character was soon written out; common wisdom is that the writers had no idea what to do with him. In his reintroduction he seems to have been Retconned into having more conventional Banshee/Black Canary scream powers.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Mike Grell has stated that Tyroc was inspired by actor and football player Fred "The Hammer" Williamson.
* PutOnABus: After several adventures, it turned out that the frequent use of his scream was causing Marzal to leave our dimension earlier than usual, and he chose to leave with them.
* RealityWarper: His scream lets him do this, [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands in short]].
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Grell's dislike of Tyroc was strong enough that he intentionally made his outfit stupid, comparing it to a cross between Elvis and a football player.

* DrillSergeantNasty: When training troops during 5YL.
* FacialMarkings: Around her eyes, after her appearance change.
* {{Flight}}: Can make the wind carry her.
* InnateNightVision: Some sources say she's got a thermal vision ability, allowing her to see the currents of wind and use her powers more effectively.
* MonochromaticEyes: Solid blue before and solid white after her appearance change (though the artist forgot sometimes).
* MultipleChoicePast, Some stories go with the {{Mutant|s}} backstory below, others say she's from a small tribe on another planet where everyone has wind powers. She herself claimed that her grandmother gave her her powers once, which doesn't exactly add up and may have been changed.
* {{Mutants}}: She says her powers come from a certain genetic anomaly that occasionally pops up amongst females of her bloodline. If she's not [[MultipleChoicePast an alien]], this may explain her appearance.
* SympathyForTheDevil: Downplayed as Wildfire is far from a devil, but he is a harsh teacher with an abrasive attitude. After hearing his story and realizing just how much of a wreck his life had become after being turned into living energy, she and Lamprey developed a strong sense of empathy for him. At one point they even got into a physical altercation with Laurel Kent and Comet Queen when they bad-mouthed the guy.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: Her appearance radically changes between issues, as does her personality. Welcome to minor character-hood in the Legion!

[[folder: Quislet]]
[[quoteright:256:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/quislet_1.jpg]]
->'''AKA:''' (real name untranslatable)
->'''Homeworld:''' Teall
->'''Abilities:''' Object animation

Quislet is an energy being from the dimension of Teall, and was then recruited into the Legion of Super-Heroes. The Teallians exist in a hive mind, but Quislet enjoyed his individuality so tried to escape his people.

* AnimateInanimateObject: Possesses inorganic objects and makes them move according to his will, though he can't stay in them for long.
* TheAssimilator: Defied. He was sent to our world to find other sapient energy beings and bring them back to Teall, when they would be converted into his peoples' HiveMind. He refused.
* BirdsOfAFeather: Gets along well with the more light-hearted or non-introspective members of the Legion (Dream Girl, Timber Wolf) and those with similarly alien outlooks (Tellus).
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: He wants to help, but his truly alien perspective can lead to him unintentionally offending people.
* BolivianArmyEnding: The last time he was on Teall, his fellow Teallians were going to inflict DeathOfPersonality on him in order to destroy his individuality and he barely managed to trick his way back on to his spaceship. When Emerald Empress destroys his ship, he's forced to return once more to survive.
* BrutalHonesty: He and Wildfire often got teamed up by writers for their banter, frankness and trash talk abilities.
* BubbleBoy: The "bubble" in question being a spaceship he can't leave for long unless possessing something (at least in our dimension).
* CuriousAsAMonkey: Especially when it comes to gossip.
* EnergyBeings: He was a microscopic energy-being from the alternate dimension of Teall who flew around in a tiny spaceship.
* FunPersonified: His primary motivation is to seek out exciting new experiences and have fun.
* GrandTheftMe: Sort of, in that his powers are the possession and animation of ''inanimate objects''.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Easily the most self-centered, egotistic member the Legion has ever had...but he came to this dimension with the specific desire to do good, and [[TheAssimilator firmly declined to pursue his original mission]] as soon as he got here.
* MorphicResonance: Anything he animates develops his symbol on it, which appears to be his name.
* NoBiologicalSex: He's a sexless energy being. That said, he's referred to as a male by non-members of his species, and doesn't seem to care.
* NoSell: The Emerald Eye turns out to be the first object able to resist Quislet's possession.
* PossessionBurnout: He can only possess objects for a short amount of time, and the objects disintegrate after he leaves them, except for his ship. As an example, he's used this property to disintegrate missiles.
* RebelliousSpirit: Quislet's fellow [[HiveMind Teallians]] regarded his independent thinking as a desirable asset in their first astronaut...until he stole their spaceship, told them where to stick their mission and headed through a black hole to parts unknown to them.
* RogueDrone: He's an escapee from his universe's HiveMind.
* {{Shapeshifting}}: Can alter she shape of anything he's possessing, except his ship.
* StarfishAliens: Lacks a body in the traditional sense.
* ThirdPersonPerson: It might be due to having been raised in a HiveMind, or some way to underline his individuality, but Quislet refers to Quisletself as Quislet.
* TheUnpronounceable: His real name was an unpronounceable glyph.
* UnskilledButStrong: His power is useful and versatile, but it has a couple of glaring limitations, namely a limited posession time and the destruction of whatever he possesses. Quislet refuses to train it any further because he regards himself as perfect already.
* WalkingTechbane: If he possesses something besides his ship, it falls apart when he leaves it no matter ''what'' it is, this includes machines, computers, and Wildfire's containment suit.

->'''AKA:''' Ganglios
->'''Homeworld:''' Hyrkaius
->'''Abilities:''' Telepathy and telekinesis

Born on the planet Hykraius, he is a natural telepath with extremely proficient skill. His alien physiology means he needs a helmet to breathe in air, simulating his native environment of liquid methane. He has also been a member of the religious organization Dark Circle, the Legion Espionage Squad, and the temporally displaced Legion Lost.
----
* AwfulTruth: Accidentally scanned Saturn Girl's mind and discovered she was hiding a terrible secret. Investigations with other new members proved that she, along with several other Legion members were planning to break the Legion Code and kill the Time Trapper. He was horrified to learn that the pillars of the Legion would betray its ideals in such a way.
* BirdsOfAFeather: Got along well with Quislet, as both of them were very unlike typical [[HumanAliens aliens]] in the Legion.
* {{Cult}}: During 5YL Hyrakius joined The Dark Circle, a quasi-cult/criminal organization opposed to Mon-el/Valor, and Ganglios (no longer a Legion member) followed them, though he maintains a distant friendship with his former teammates.
* GracefulInTheirElement: Is much happier and more agile in places where he can swim rather than walk, and thoroughly enjoys his trip to the Phantom Zone as a result.
* HiveMind: Not quite, but since Hyrakians are a close-knit society of psychics, they weren't far off. He found the Legion's teamwork and familial atmosphere quite comforting as a result...[[AwfulTruth At first]].
* InterspeciesFriendship: The only Hyrakian in the Legion, so ''any'' of his friendships among them count as this, but he was particularly close with the Braalian Human Pol Krinn and Teallian Quislet, so much so that their loss was one of the main factors to his leaving the Legion. He was also friends with Laurel Kent, the purported descendant of Superman.
* NiceGuy: Very polite and well-intentioned.
* OddFriendship: Developed one with Magnetic Kid, who joined at the same time he did and shared an interest in improving his powers and distinguishing himself among the Legion.
* PsychicPowers
** MindManipulation: Although rarely used, Ganglios' can force his telepathic powers to control lesser minded beings. Normally he uses this ability to allow himself into other's mind to sift through their thoughts without resistance.
** MindOverMatter: One of Ganglios' main abilities is his telekinesis. He uses this to move his large, heavy body about with no difficulty as well as levitating himself and others (with more stress per person).
** {{Telepathy}}: One of Ganglios' main abilities. He uses it as a means of communication, investigation, searching, controlling and deciphering. He can even search the mind of an unconscious foe and reach into the subconscious of other individuals. This is a natural ability of his race.
* TrainingTheGiftOfMagic: PsychicPowers are normal in his species, but training under Saturn Girl expanded his abilities ''well'' beyond the norm for a Hyrakian.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Or telepaths it, in this case. He's been xenologically trained to be able to use his powers on minds radically different from his own. Like, you know, ''ours''.
* StarfishAliens: He is a Hykraian hailing from the ocean world of Hykraius. The Hykraians are an aquatic methane-breathing fish-like people.
* TelepathicSpacemen: All Hyrakians are.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Kind of. When he was chosen to join over a Saturnian telepath who went by "Mentalla", the spurned psychic decided she'd trick the Fatal Five into letting her join and then use her powers to help the Legion capture them. She did so successfully, but the Five realized what she'd done and killed her horribly.
* WideEyedIdealist: At first. Finding the AwfulTruth above, learning that his friend Laurel Kent was actually a Manhunter robot, and losing his two closest friends in the Legion [[TookALevelInCynic changed him]] quite a bit.

[[folder: Tyroc]]
[[quoteright:232:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tyroc.png]]
->'''AKA:''' Troy Stewart
->'''Homeworld:''' Marzal
->'''Abilities:''' Sonic manipulation

Born on Earth, he has reality-warping screams that give him many different abilities. His home is the racial separatist island Marzal. They are a highly advanced society descended from African slaves, who exist in a dimension that only appears to Earth once every several years. During the apocryphal Five Years Later era, he briefly succeeded Invisible Kid to become President of Earth. There is no counterpart to Tyroc in Reboot Legion continuity. In Prime Legion continuity, Tyroc is briefly depicted as an urban legend.
----
* AbsoluteCleavage
* AngryBlackMan: Even though it takes place in the year 3000. Notably, the writers and artists were all painfully aware of how this trope was being played in a setting where racism should've been eliminated, but were forced to portray Tyroc as such due to the ExecutiveMeddling.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Paul Levitz, despite ignoring him in the 1980s, has devoted enough effort in the current Legion volume to move Tyroc beyond his previous "angry black man" personality and make him likable. For the most part, it's worked.
* CollaredByFashion
* CommonalityConnection: Both he (protector of Marzal) and Shadow Lass (protector of Talok VIII) clicked right away.
* HumansAreWhite: In the Silver Age, the Legion of Super-Heroes featured many aliens but no black human or {{Human Alien|s}} members. Tyroc was added as the AngryBlackMan that was a common sort of TokenMinority back in the day. Supposedly, in the 30th century, the world is above caring about things like race, but the [[ExecutiveMeddling meddling executives]], very much of that point in the 20th century, weren't quite up to having a black character as just another guy instead of The Black Guy.
-->"I always wanted to have a character who was African-American, and years later, when they did that, they did it in the worst way possible....instead of just incidentally having a character who happens to be black...they made a big fuss about it. He's a racial separatist....I just found it pathetic and appalling." -Creator/JimShooter
* LeotardOfPower
* MakeMeWannaShout: He possesses a sonic scream; the pitch, volume, and words of his scream could initially vary to produce a variety of different effects.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: His superpowered screams can do basically whatever the writer likes. He could do nearly anything, from teleportation to pyrokinesis to... making it rain glue. The character was soon written out; common wisdom is that the writers had no idea what to do with him. In his reintroduction he seems to have been Retconned into having more conventional Banshee/Black Canary scream powers.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Mike Grell has stated that Tyroc was inspired by actor and football player Fred "The Hammer" Williamson.
* PutOnABus: After several adventures, it turned out that the frequent use of his scream was causing Marzal to leave our dimension earlier than usual, and he chose to leave with them.
* RealityWarper: His scream lets him do this, [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands in short]].
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Grell's dislike of Tyroc was strong enough that he intentionally made his outfit stupid, comparing it to a cross between Elvis and a football player.

->'''Homeworld:''' Dryad
->'''Abilities:''' Super-strength, durability, energy reflection/deflection

Born the last of his race on Dryad, his stony physiology makes him incredibly strong and durable. He is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, although he originally appeared as a member of the League of Super-Assassins, a group of brainwashed villains who were tricked and brainwashed by the Dark Man into thinking the doomed planet Dryad had been destroyed by the Legion. Unlike the other members, he was a native of said planet. His long-term romantic interest is the White Witch.

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Although he understands good and evil. He finds the nuances of organic behavior difficult to understand at times.
* BreathWeapon: Eventually he develops strange "pipes" on his shoulders that spew energy when he's upset.
* CommonalityConnection: He and the White Witch felt isolated from their teammates, and found solace in each other.
* EnergyAbsorption: Owing to his silicon-based nature. He can also [[AttackReflector reflect]] it.
* GentleGiant
* HeelFaceTurn: After learning that the Legionnaires had been helping evacuate Dryad, he shook off whatever brainwashing had affected him and offered his aid to stop the Dark Man.
* ImmuneToMindControl:
** He is highly resistant to telepathic attack or possession, as when Esper Lass failed to possess him during the attack of the Legion of Super-Villains.
** The Dark Man's brainwashing affected him, but not as badly as the other members of the Super-Assassins, likely due to the resistance mentioned above.
* InterspeciesFriendship: He seems drawn other Legionnaires with unusual appearances, such as White Witch and Timber Wolf.
* InterspeciesRomance: Although crush on Mysa Nal is (to all appearances) one-sided in the early comics, it's reciprocated after she becomes the Black Witch.
* LastOfHisKind: Blok is possibly the last of his people, convinced at first by The Dark Man that the Legion was trying to destroy Dryad, but they were actually trying to save it.
* {{Metamorphosis}}: Knowing nothing of his race, he suspects he may be in a pupal form of some sort after his body starts undergoing strange changes.
* MightyGlacier: His massive size makes him slow and sometimes clumsy. He has to wear ''three'' flight rings.
* MultipleChoicePast: In the Legion of Super-Assassin's first appearance, he was implied to have been a mutated human. Once it was decided to make him a recurring character this was changed.
* NighInvulnerability: He is far more durable than a normal human, and can probably withstand impacts and pressures that could severely injure or kill a human with no discomfort.
* NoSell: Against energy attacks, or attacks which only work on organics.
* OddFriendship: Blok seemed to have an interest in people with unusual appearances, like Timber Wolf and White Witch.
* OnlySaneMan: Since the Dark Man's brainwashing didn't take as well, he was disturbed by the cruelty and violence of his comrades in the Super-Assassins.
* SacrificialLamb: His FYL counterpart. His death at the hands of Roxxas was what nudged the Legion into finally reforming.
* ScarsAreForever: He debuted with a formation of stone around his neck in the shape of a collar and large nose. They both got broken off.
* SuperStrength: He is many times stronger than a normal human being, although his strength level is unknown.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Shown to have a sense of honor and responsibility from the start, unlike his more-brainwashed fellow assassins.
* WarriorPoet: He has a more reflective and philosophical frame of mind than many among the Legion, and this is reflected in his thoughts and speech. He also appreciates art and beauty.

The wife of Gim Allon aka Colossal Boy. Being a native of Durla, Chameleon Girl has the power of shape-shifting. She is also an accomplished actress and once posed as Legionnaire Shrinking Violet for an extended period of time.

* ActionGirl: Disguising herself as a Legionnaire meant going on Legion missions, and she pitched in as well as the real Violet.
* DistaffCounterpart: To Chameleon Boy, natch.
* FantasticRacism: As a Durlan she's on the receiving end of this. She fights it by proving how talented an actress she can be.
* FantasticVoyagePlot: Yera-as-Violet shrinks to get into the "Lydea Mallor" clone's body and expands enough to give the Servant of Darkness a fatal stroke.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Orange skinned.
* HappilyMarried: To Colossal Boy. The pair fell in love and secretly married while Yera was pretending to be Violet. There ''have'' been a couple of rough patches--like when he insisted on staying an active Legionnaire after being crippled.
* InterspeciesRomance: As mentioned above.
* KryptoniteFactor: Like all Durlans, being hit by a chemical called "cancelite" neutralizes her powers until its cleaned off.
* TheMole[=/=]AWolfInSheepsClothing: Impersonated Shrinking Violet when Violet was kidnapped. Yera was not told of their plans and didn't believe she was assisting in any crime. She ended up marrying Colossal Boy while in disguise, although the marriage did not end when she was revealed.
** EasilyForgiven: Justified, as she not only had started to question her superior's orders, but had done none of what she did out of malice. However, it's been a plot point that Shrinking Violet is not fond of her at all, to the point of flat out warning Yera to never use her form again no matter what. In the Five Years Later Legion Vi and Yera reconciled their differences, but in the Johnsboot Legion Myg (the second Karate Kid) pointed out the tension between Vi and Yera as an example of how the Legion is a joke.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She was hired under the premise that Shrinking Violet had just wanted to go on a vacation in secret, and was horrified to learn the truth.
* OutOfCharacterAlert: Suddenly after years of turning him down, Violet became romantically interested and flirtatious with Colossal Boy. Gim may have been too happy to notice how odd this sudden change was, but it was one of a number of mistakes that eventually led his teammates to uncover Yera's imposture.
* ParentalMarriageVeto: Averted. Gim's parents were surprised he married a Durlan, but they were fine with it. They ''do'' want any kids to be raised Jewish, though.
* PowerPerversionPotential: Implied during her first night with Colossal Boy after the truth came out.
* {{Sizeshifter}}: Part of her shapeshifting abilities. She couldn't get as small as the ''real'' Violet could, but she could get small enough that no one could tell the difference.
* SuperSenses: Yera, like all Durlans, scans the molecular structure of any object or person she encounters via the invisible emanations emitted from her antennae.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Like all Durlans, Yera possesses the ability to transform her body's size, shape and color to mimic any person, creature or object in the universe. Naturally she cannot duplicate super-powers.

Comet Queen was a member of the Legion Academy. She "Graduated" to the Legion of Substitute Heroes. Post 52 reboot the Subs membership may have been retconned. She was recently inducted into the Legion.

* AscendedFangirl: Wanted to be a Legionnare, to the point she went though a dangerous comet trail just in the hopes of giving herself powers, which ended up paying off. Decades later real-world time, after stints as both a legion cadet and a Substitute Legionnaire, she finally became a full fledged Legionnaire post reboot.
* FlamingHair: Constantly emitting a fiery-looking gas of some sort from her head. Fortunately for everyone around her it's not poisonous or flammable unless she wants it to be.
* {{Flight}}: She has great skill in flying, showing hairline maneuvering through various obstacles at high speeds. Grava has a small force field that surrounds her body when she flies allowing her to resist friction.

* GenkiGirl: Thoroughly jazzed about the Legion.
* GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe: Orange skinned. Maybe a bit odder-looking than some.

* SuperSpeed: She is able to fly at super-speeds while trailing a stream of stellar energy, much like a comet does.
* ValleyGirl: She's basically a futuristic version of one. She speaks her own brand of slang, much to the annoyance of nearly everyone she's around because half the time they have no idea what she's talking about.
* VerbalTic: Makes quite a few cosmos, particularly star, related statements in her speech. It's unknown if this is a normal thing on Extal or if it's just her.
* ViolationOfCommonSense: "I wanna be in the Legion! I know! Star Boy got super-powers from the flaming tail of a comet once, so I'll go into space, strip naked and jump into the first comet I see!"

* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Not only can she survive in space without a suit, she even can use winged flight when there's no atmosphere. Eat ''that'', physics!
* BraidsBeadsAndBuckskins: She lives in the 30th century on another planet, but wears a fringed buckskin dress and boots anyhow. Justified by her planet having been colonized by 13th Century Native Americans.
* BrokenAngel: Dawnstar in v4 lost her wings [[spoiler: after being possessed for three years by Bounty, a thrill-seeking entity that used her tracking powers to go into business as a bounty hunter]]. The reason for this was never explained.
* DemotedToExtra
* {{Flight}}: Dawnstar and other Starhavenites have pairs of large, white-feathered wings that grow out of their upper backs, the result of genetic engineering. In deep space, she can travel at faster-than-light speeds. In an Earth-normal atmosphere or in a sizable gravity well, her speed is diminished.
* InterspeciesRomance: Technically, since Mama Burroughs' boy [[EnergyBeing ain't exactly]] human any more.
* MagicalNativeAmerican: Well, Genetically-Engineered Native American.
* Main/MostCommonSuperpower: Portrayed with maximum cleavage and big breasts.
* MsFanservice: Her original costume was a revealing yellow dress of Native American design, with a plunging neckline and long ornamental fringes on the sleeves and boot cuffs. This costume design went virtually unchanged throughout most of original continuity.
* ScarilyCompetentTracker: Dawnstar is a master tracker and can track life forms and objects across light years of distance and through interstellar space. She can even use this ability while unconscious, asleep, under mind control, intoxicated and sensory blinded.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Wildfire as he is sentient energy trapped inside a containment suit. [[spoiler:And then later animating a corpse]]. No nookie here.
* StuffedIntoTheFridge: Her Five Years Later counterpart. There was a supporting character with the same skin tone as Dawnstar who called herself "Bounty", and she was an AntiHero bounty hunter with a vague backstory. It turned out that she was really Dawnstar, being possessed by a demon called Bounty that amputated her wings. Unlike Lightning Lad and Shrinking Violet, who both had their limbs grown back, Dawny's wings were never restored. And then ComicBook/ZeroHour happened, and that was the last fans saw of her until ''The Lightning Saga''.
** During ''Legion of 3 Worlds'', artist George Perez drew the wingless Dawnstar deliberately behind where Cosmic Boy's word bubble would be placed.
* WillTheyOrWontThey: Dawnstar had a lengthy romance with fellow Legionnaire Drake Burroughs (Wildfire). Wildfire was an anti-energy being in a containment suit, and thus had no physical body. When he briefly was able to partially reverse this, they attempted a physical relationship, but were unsuccessful. Ultimately, she decided that body or not, he was the one for her, but by then he was [[spoiler:animating a corpse]] and too ashamed of it to reveal the truth.
* WingedHumanoid: Though descended from Earth humans, Dawnstar possesses natural wings. This is a common physical trait of her people however, and is not considered unusual by the standards of Starhaven culture.

[[quoteright:174:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/invisible_kid_5.jpg]]
->'''AKA:''' Jacques Foccart

->'''Abilities:''' Invisibility, formerly Uncontrolled Teleportation and Dimensional Travel

Jacques Foccart is the successor of Lyle Norg (Invisible Kid I), who drank Norg's serum to save the world from Computo.

Jacques's younger sister, suffering from a strange energy overload in her nervous system, seemed beyond help until the Foccart family was contacted by Dr. Gmy'll, who told them about how Brainiac 5 of the Legion had come across their daughter's case in a medical journal and believed he could cure her strange malady.

Accompanying his sister to Legion Headquarters, he watched nervously as Dream Girl and Brainiac began scanning and repairing his sister's brain. Unbeknownst to him, Brainiac had incorporated the advanced circuitry of Computo, his computer who had gained an evil sentience long ago, into the implants he placed within Danielle's brain, and the malevolent AI not only took control of poor Danielle, but (by possessing the computers via the scanner) all of Legion HQ.

As the computer inside his sister's body taunted Brainiac Five and Jacques, the brilliant Coluan managed to palm a telepathic earplug into Jacques's hand and shared a fantastic plan with him: Within the infirmary, there was a sample of the invisibility serum invented by Lyle Norg, aka Invisible Kid. Jacques could take it, become invisible, and work against Computo, who was trapped within a weak human body. However, there was a chance that stopping Computo would kill Danielle (though she was dying anyway due to PossessionBurnout). Also, since the serum was designed for Lyle Norg's DNA, it might cause an allergic reaction within Jacques body that could prove fatal. Jacques, after a bit of debate, chose to take the risk.

With Computo's focus entirely upon its hated creator, Jacques was able to access the serum and drink it. As Computo faced the Legionnaires on multiple fronts, Jacques got his hands on a hypo disc which he used to knock out Danielle's body.

Danielle survived her separation, and in light of his courageous actions, Jacques Foccart was voted into the Legion, just in time for The Great Darkness Saga. During his first official case, he came into contact with Darkseid himself, who could not only see him, but chose to allow him to live as homage to his courage, albeit forever marked with a streak of white hair.

During the Five-Year Gap, he stuck with the Legion, until he couldn't accept Earthgov's abuse of tyhem anymore, and formed a resistance cell against the corrupt government, which several former Legionnaires and Subs would end up joining. He also married Drura Sept, aka Infectious Lass. It was he who gave the speech which convinced the lower castes of Dominator society to no longer support the oppressive ruling class who were pressuring them into war.

After the Dominators were driven away, Earth destroyed and New Earth established, he unhappily found himself named the President of New Earth. However, when the Adult Legion and the Legion consisting of [=SW6=] members were formed, he happily rejoined the former and left running New Earth to Tyroc.

In Reboot Legion continuity, there is a version of Jacques who becomes a government spy.

* AffirmativeActionLegacy: Hails from Côte d'Ivoire and is both black and French. Well, the first part counts.
* CommonalityConnection: Let me count the ways:
** White Witch understood how he felt as a "newbie".
** As a member of the Legion Espionage Squad, he was close with all its members.
** Having come face-to-face in with death (in the form of Darkseid) and overcoming his fear, he formed a respectful bond with Sensor Girl who had had similar experiences.
* DieOrFly: In spite of having no training, Foccart performed admirably in what might be considered an informal first Legion mission.
* DimensionalTraveler: This and {{Teleportation}} were adrenaline-activated powers caused by Jacques's DNA being different from Lyle Norg's. Eventually, they proved too dangerous and had to be removed.
* EightiesHair: Has a long, fluffy mullet during 5YL. (Some artists salvage this by making it a ponytail instead).
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Inverted. In spite of their own differences with each other, Jacques had so many {{Commonality Connection}}s with the other Legionnaires that he fit right in.
* GratuitousFrench:
** 'e 'as got ''la fantistique'' ac''zent''. Plus perfect, non?
** By 5YL it's toned down. Much better, n'est-ce pas?
* HumansAreWhite: One of the characters who averts this.
* IllGirl: His younger sister, who suffered from some sort of electrical overload in her brain. Thankfully, Computo's possession appears to have inadvertently cured it.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Infectuous Lass in 5YL.
* {{Invisibility}}: Like his predecessor Lyle Norg, Foccart can become undetectable via light waves in the range of human vision. Unlike Norg (at least Preboot), Foccart was invisible to other levels of EM detection as well.
* LegacyCharacter: In the original continuity is the successor of Lyle Norg (Invisible Kid I).
* LockedIntoStrangeness: He got the white streak in his hair from being touched by ComicBook/{{Darkseid}}.
* MortonsFork: Between ''possibly'' dying from an allergic reaction to Lyle Norg's invisibility serum or ''definitely'' dying at Computo's hands, along with his sister and Brainiac 5, Jacques knew there was only one choice.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He treats the death of Wharlik as this, in spite of [[PowerIncontinence not really being responsible]].
* PowerIncontinence:
** Preboot, Thanks to his DNA being different from Lyle Norg's, he developed teleportation and dimensional travel as unaffected side-effects from the serum. However, they were activated by adrenaline and he couldn't control where he ended up, which meant that every time he was startled, or angry, or fighting, he might get sent who-knows-where. Thus, after he accidentally teleported himself and Wharlik, a Khund he was fighting, into space, he had it removed. At least one incarnation has them back/never lost them, however.
** Postboot, Jacques was permanently invisible.
* ReluctantRuler: He hated being President of New Earth and happily left Tyroc in charge the first chance he got.
* SkunkStripe: He has a white stripe down the centre of his hair. Originally, this was caused by an encounter with Darkseid (see above), but in the Reboot Legion, flashbacks show he had it from a very early age.
* SuperSerum: He took Lyle Norg's original invisibility serum. However, since he was genetically different from Norg's, his invisibility works slightly differently, and he gained {{Teleportation}}/DimensionalTraveler powers as well.
* {{Teleportation}}: This and DimensionalTraveler were adrenaline-activated powers caused by Jacques's DNA being different from Lyle Norg's. Eventually, they proved too dangerous and had to be removed.

->'''AKA:''' Drake Burroughs
->'''Homeworld:''' Earth
->'''Abilities:''' Composed of anti-energy, energy blasts and manipulation

Drake Burroughs exists as a cloud of sentient antimatter energy in a containment suit. This grants him incredible powers, although he can never be truly human again. There have been two other primary versions of Wildfire in different Legion continuities. In the Reboot Legion, he is a composite of Atom'X and Blast-Off named Wildfire; in Prime Legion continuity he has taken the name ERG-1. His primary romantic interest is Dawnstar, despite their complications.
----
* TheAgeless: Energy doesn't age, so he'll be around for a good long while, unless something kills him.
* BlessedWithSuck: Wildfire cannot contain his form without a special suit and he cannot touch most beings without burning them. This places a burden on his love life and social abilities, and makes him quite short tempered.
* BrilliantButLazy: As a student, Professor Vultan felt he had a lot of potential, but no self-discipline. Ironically, [[{{Determinator}} discipline]] is now incredibly important for him.
* BrutalHonesty: He and Quislet often got teamed up by writers for their banter, frankness and trash talk abilities.
* [[CantHaveSexEver Can't Have Sex Ever]]: Because he doesn't have a body. When he managed to put one together with the help of Quislet, his touch still burned Dawnstar.
* ClingyCostume: Without his ERG-suit, Wildfire is just a mass of anti-energy, shapeless and largely unable to interact with the rest of the world.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: Using his powers at too high a level can damage or destroy his Containment Suit. [[HotBlooded He keeps spares]].
* DemotedToExtra
* {{Determinator}}: It takes incredibly strong willpower to reassemble himself from dispersal or maintain himself when outside of his suit.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Wildfire was killed off in the NoodleIncident known as Black Dawn, when he merged his energy with the sun in order to restore it after Dr. Regulus made it unstable. He eventually managed to return, however.
* EnergyBeings: He is pure anti-matter energy.
* {{Flight}}: Outside of his suit he can self-propel, with concentration.
* FlingALightIntoTheFuture: His devotion to the Legion is just as endless as his lifespan, thus ''he's'' the light who in the 57th Century restores the Legion from darkness. He's so good at it there's a Legion in the 853rd century.
* FusionDance: Postboot, Wildfire was created by the fusion of the powers and souls of two dead heroes, Randall "Atom'X" Burroughs and Jahr-Drake "Blast-Off" Ningle.
* HandicappedBadass: He's reliant on puppeting his containment suits around to interact with the world. In addition, like a spacesuit, the suits aren't constructed with the full range of motion that a living body would have. Hence he's unable to perform much in the way of, say, martial arts because the techniques are too complicated.
* TheHeart: Postboot, but not in the main series itself. Two FlashForward series--''Legends of the Dead Earth'' and ''ComicBook/DCOneMillion''--show Wildfire as the only surviving member of the original Legion in both the 57th and 853rd centuries, respectively, having kept the Legion name alive all that time.
* HeroicSacrifice:
** At first it was thought that he'd died saving three Legionnaires on the planet Manna-5, but he'd only damaged his suit so badly it couldn't contain him any longer. He was out of commission until he managed to reassemble himself via force of will, something that would come to happen more than once.
** However, he seemed to have destroyed himself permanently when he was forced to use his power to re-ignite the sun. [[SoulJar Not quite.]]
* HotBlooded: Passionate and impetuous.
* IAmAMonster: One of his first reactions after his accident was to call himself a "thing", and claim that he wasn't even ''human'' anymore. After he was forced to shoot his terrified former girlfriend's car in order to save a bunch of kids she was fleeing toward when her car went out of control, he used this trope by name.
* IncompletelyTrained: Quislet was teaching him how to create a body with his powers, but ended up being forced back to Teall for good. Without his help, Drake was unable to maintain his body and was forced back into a suit.
* {{Intangibility}}: In his energy form, he can pass through solid things, but not force fields.
* InterspeciesFriendship: Reboot Wildfire grew close to Shikari, a Kwai. Of course, as an formerly-human energy being, ''any'' friendship he makes is technically this nowadays.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Decided to let his pre-accident girlfriend continue believing he was dead in order to allow her to move on and find love again.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's got a sharp tongue and an abrasive attitude, but he's firmly dedicated to the Legion.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:In 5YL, he was deeply shocked to see the state of Dirk's body when he possessed it, and too ashamed of his technical desecration of the dead to come clean to his teammates and Dawkstar about it]].
* NoBiologicalSex: Because a cloud of pure anti-energy would look weird with dangly bits. He still thinks of himself as male, however.
* NoPlansNoPrototypeNoBackup: His original Containment Suit.
* OneSizeFitsAll: Averted in regards to his Containment Suits.
** His original suit was designed by the now-dead Professor Vultan and allowed him to utilize his energy in flexible ways, and thus [[SuperpowerLottery mimic the powers]] of several other Legionnaires. It was destroyed by his first HeroicSacrifice.
** Every suit since then has been an imperfect copy, nowhere near as as comfortable (according to him) nor as efficient, and the powers they provide (if any) tend to be far more limited. They all let him use SuperStrength, {{Flight}} and [[HandBlast energy blasts]], at the very least though, and his SuperSenses and XRayVision appear to be inherent to himself.
* PoweredArmor: His various Contaimment Suits operate this way, super-tough and allowing him to use his energy to replicate SuperStrength, FTL {{Flight}}, and [[HandBlast Energy Blasts]], among other things.
* SecondLove: During his college days, Drake had been seeing a young lady named Kerri, who thought he was dead after his accident. Afterward, he fell for Professor Vultan's daughter, and ''believed'' she felt the same. It's not clear if this was the case or she thought leading him on would make it easier to keep him around. (See UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom)
* SenseLossSadness: Sight and hearing are all he has left.
* SoulJar: In 5YL,having just barely been able to reassemble himself from his HeroicSacrifice, the exhausted Wildfire felt his control over his form slipping. Desperate for a receptacle to place himself into before he dispersed for good, he found Sun Boy's corpse on Shangalla and stuck himself inside it. He spent a while hiding the truth within his containment suit.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Dawnstar.
* SuperpowerLottery: A being of pure anti-matter energy, Wildfire possessed a variety of superhuman abilities, depending on [[OneSizeFitsAll which Containment Suit]] he's wearing.
** {{Flight}}: He could travel at faster than light speeds without the aid of external applications.
** HandBlast: Wildfire could produce concentrated blasts of pure energy for offensive attack.
** NighInvulnerability: Although Wildfire's containment suit can be destroyed, his energy body is virtually invulnerable and can only be dispersed under the most extreme of conditions. Even then, most of the time he could use his willpower to reassemble.
** {{Sizeshifter}}: He could expand his mass and volume several times greater than normal, allowing him to achieve heights similar to that of Colossal Boy, or contract it to shrink like Shrinking Violet.
** SuperSenses: Depending on [[OneSizeFitsAll which suit]] he's wearing.
** SuperStrength: He, or rather his suits, possessed a strength level many times greater than that of the average human. This seems to be consistent across suits.
** SuperToughness: His suits have this by necessity.
** XRayVision: Like his teammate, ComicBook/{{Superboy}}, Wildfire possessed the ability to see through varying layers of solid objects. This seems to be inherent to himself rather than his suit.
* ThatManIsDead:
** After his accident, Vultan had to break it to him that his life as Drake Burroughs, normal human, was no more.
** Reboot Wildfire says as much of the two people who were fused together to create him.
* UnableToCry: After discovering he was no longer human and life as he'd known it was over, you can bet he gave it a shot, but a cloud of pure energy doesn't have tear ducts.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom:
** Unbeknownst to Drake, the reason Vultan had a Containment Suit ready so quickly after Drake's accident was because Vultan was terminally ill and had planned to use the suit to prolong his own life. Vultan unselfishly chose to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice]] his chance at using it for his student's sake...
** ...While Vultan and his daughter Zera were helping him adapt to his suit, however, Zera was also secretly siphoning his energy and using it to extend her unknowing father's lifespan. But when Drake left Earth for over a year with Vultan's blessing, the good doctor died. Drake didn't know about this until Zera tried to kill him for revenge.
* WasOnceAMan: Drake was originally an astroengineering student. While he was working on a new propulsion system, the unit's safety valve snapped and discharged a blast of anti-matter energy. He was engulfed instantly but somehow his consciousness survived and Drake found himself transformed into a being of pure anti-energy.

* StarCrossedLovers: With Wildfire as he is sentient energy trapped inside a containment suit. [[spoiler:And then later animting a corpse]]. No nookie here.

* WillTheyOrWontThey: Dawnstar had a lengthy romance with fellow Legionnaire Drake Burroughs (Wildfire). Wildfire was an anti-energy being in a containment suit, and thus had no physical body. When he briefly was able to partially reverse this, they attempted a physical relationship, but were unsuccessful.

* GratuitousFrench: 'e 'as got ''la fantistique'' ac''zent''. Plus perfect, non?
