History Characters / StormHawks

* OverprotectiveDad: Granddad, rather. He gets suspicious of Aerrow when he and Dove start getting friendly.

* WhipItGood: He has a whip that can fire laser saw blades.

* WaxOnWaxOff: The lessons he gives the Storm Hawks.

* TheSmartGuy: Has a near-encyclopedic knowledge of crystals and how to use them properly.

* TheBigGuy: He's a Wallop, which are essentially anthropomorphic rhinos with a culture based on strength. Physically the largest and strongest of the team.

* {{Leitmotif}}: Very distinct and [[SorryILeftTheBGMOn usually played by one of her own troops when she flies into battle.]]

* AnimalThemeNaming: Birds, for the series as a whole. A snipe is a small, long-beaked bird.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: She is a SorcerousOverlord and can handle any protagonist of her own with relative ease. In the two-part series opening, she easily handles both Aerrow and Starling, and the only way they are able to win is by breaking her ArtifactOfDoom.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Leader of the Raptors, ruler of Terra Bogaton, and by far the most dangerous and competent member of his kind shown.

* SixthRanger: He has no real loyalty to Cyclonia, only kept in line by the promise of rewards for his service and the fact that his Terra's done for if he openly rebels. Several times he makes a bid to become a SixthRangerTraitor when the opportunity presents itself, though it never works out.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He puts up a better fight than any of the Murk Raiders under his command.

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: In "Power Grab", he helps Snipe, then Repton, take control of Cyclonia in Master Cyclonis' absence in hopes of getting a promotion. Given how Ravess and Snipe treated him though, it’s hard to blame him.

* TheChick: The only girl among the Storm Hawks, and generally the closest to Earth.

* PlotAllergy: He is allergic to both Murk Raiders and Sky Sharks. It's good for an early warning and bad for trying to be sneaky, as they make him release [[SneezeOfDoom Sneezes of Doom]].

The Sky Knight of the Interceptors, a squadron that was taken down by Repton.

* CoolBigSis: To the Storm Hawks. She's in her early twenties, while they (except for [[TokenAdult Stork]]) are 14. They look up to her because she is a Sky Knight, with Aerrow and Piper being somewhat in awe upon first meeting her, having known about her beforehand. Deconstructed in "Storm Hawks Seven", where she becomes frustrated with their lack of maturity. Reconstructed by the end of the episode, when she learns to loosen up and have some fun.

* NeverBeHurtAgain: After having lost her squadron, she tries to avoid forming attachments so she won't have to risk losing them again.
* SoleSurvivor: Of the Inteceptors squadron, courtesy of Repton. It also explains [[TheDrifter much of her]] [[IWorkAlone behavior]].

* CloudCuckoolander: Crashing face-first into a wall during a reckless stunt only makes him cheer louder afterwards, and talking to someone doesn't stop him from catching snowflakes with his tongue. Other male Absolute Zeroes seem to be this as well.

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Subverted. He inadvertently comes off as sexist during the first meeting with the Storm Hawks, but it's actually a harmless case of YourNormalIsOurTaboo. In Blizzarian culture, the ''women'' are the leaders and make the decisions, while the men train and have fun. He wasn't excluding Piper because she was a girl, but rather because he thought ''she'' was the Sky Knight, and that Suzy and she were supposed to do leadership things together.

* YourNormalIsOurTaboo: A harmless case in terms of leadership. For the Blizzarians, the women are the leaders and make the decisions, which is why he turns down Piper's offer to join the boys in speed training in the backcountry. Piper, on the other hand, thought the boys were being sexist.

* InnocentlyInsensitive: Inadvertently comes off as sexist during the first meeting with the Storm Hawks. [[spoiler: Interestingly, it's somewhat reversed from what everyone thinks- in his mind, the ''women'' are the ones who make the decisions and are the leaders, while the men train and have fun. He wasn't excluding Piper because she was a girl, he was excluding her because he thought ''she'' was the Sky Knight, and that Suzy and her were supposed to do leader things together.]]
* MadeOfIron: He's show physically colliding with various large objects at high speed and then getting back up, looking no worse for wear.

* {{Animorphism}}: He can change between human and bird form.

* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Into an equally gaudy large bird.

->Voiced by Creator/ScottMcNeil

->Voiced by Mark Oliver

* {{Goth}}: Of the gloomy variety.

* AlienLunch: The stuff he eats is... pretty strange. Some of it's even alive, or poisonous enough to kill a normal person.

* AlienLunch: He built up his poison immunity so he could eat this on a regular basis.

* FightingWithChucks: Nunchucks tipped with {{Laser Blade}}s, no less.

* CorruptHick: He's got the hat and accent of one, anyway.

* PositiveDiscrimination: The AmbiguouslyBrown TokenGirl is probably the least likely to screw up.

* RetractableWeapon: Her staff can collapse to become shorter.

* BoomStick: Her crystal staff can be used as such with a crystal mounted on the end, though more often than not it's wielded as a SimpleStaff.

* MixAndMatchCritters: Some kind of blue-furred lemur rabbit... thing.

[[folder:Leugey]]

* WrestlerOfBeasts: In "The Black Gorge", he beats up a giant eel monster that tries to eat the team. For extra points, he does this ''without'' his knuckle busters.

* SmugSnake: For all her belief that her plans are superior, she's prone to making mistakes that end up proving costly. For example, in "Stratosphere," her high-altitude attacks on the Storm Hawks alert them to her presence. If she had waited until the KillSat she was building was complete, [[NiceJobFixingItVillain they never would've been able to get there in time to stop it]], something that Master Cyclonis berates her for.
* TheStarscream: [[spoiler:Subverted. The second season has her getting progressively more fed up with Master Cyclonis, hinting that she'll betray her. Unfortunately for her, she's exiled from Cyclonia before she can stab any backs.]]

* MesACrowd: Uses the Cloning Crystal from "[=InFinnity=]" to make over three hundred of himself with aspirations to conquer Atmos and overthrow Cyclonis. Luckily, each one is just as gullible as he is, and they quickly fall to infighting once the Storm Hawks trick them long enough for them to escape with the crystal and come up with a way to get rid of the clones.
* MoreDakka: The reason he fails in his debut episode is because he puts ''so many'' guns on his super ship that it doesn't have enough power to keep itself in the air ''and'' keep firing at the same time once the Storm Hawks manage to cut the primary power of the engines. While the guns are working, it's unleashing terrifying levels of firepower.

* TooDumbToLive: In "A Little Trouble," when one of his mooks warns him that feeding away any more power from his warship's failing engines to the cannons will cause them to give out completely, Snipe goes ahead and does it anyway. Seeing as the ''engines'' are what keeps the warship in the ''air,'' as well as the fact he still hadn't shot down the ''Condor'' by this point even with when they were fully working, you have to wonder what the ''hell'' was going through Snipe's head (assuming there was anything at all).

* AccidentalMisnaming: In "King for a Day", Finn repeatedly refers to himself as the "Gomo" of Terra Vapos. It's actually Domo, as Aerrow keeps correcting him. This is particularly funny as Finn is misnaming ''himself''.
