* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In the comics, Hot Spot has the ability to generate intense thermal energy from his hands. In appearance, the power was very similar to pyrokinesis, but he could not generate actual flame. In the show, he is a clear pyrokinetic.

* CatchPhrase: "¡Más y Menos, sí podemos!" ("Más and Menos, yes we can!")

* SingleMindedTwins: They shout the catch phrase at the same time. More importantly, they have to be on the same page if they're to properly use their powers.

* MsFanservice: Bumblebee is well-endowed like Starfire and Raven, wears a body fit hero costume which shows her torso.

* MakeMeWannaShout: Timmy Tantrum's power, as he's able to release powerful sonic booms with his screams when agitated enough.

* AdaptationNameChange: While his super-name from the comics, Joto, was chosen because it meant heat in Swahili, it was also discovered to be a homophobic slur in Latin-American Spanish, so it was changed to Hot Spot for the cartoon and in the comics.

* SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: They speak entirely in Spanish. All of it is properly translated and grammatically correct, though they have heavy American accents, don't pronounce the ''R'' as it should be in Spanish, and put too many words together, which makes it really hard to understand.
-->"''¡Y este viejo nos esta jodiendo!''" - "And this old man is fucking with us!"

* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: He was Bumblebee's boyfriend in the comics. In this show, they never interact.

* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inverted. In the original comics, [[spoiler:both brothers were slowly dying. It is explained that their own powers were destroying them, and they needed a transfusion of their father's blood to survive.]] In the animated series, they are simply mischievous teens with powers.

* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: We may never learn if he got together with Kole like in the comics.

* GrandTheftMe: His superpower.

* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: We also may never know if he's the son of Slade/Deathstroke.

* AdaptationNameChange: While his super-name from the comics, Joto, was chosen because it meant heat in Swahili, it was also discovered to be an offensive Latin-American Spanish word for gay people, so it was changed to Hot Spot for the cartoon and in the comics.

* TheTropeKid: Kid ''Flash''.

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/TerraTeenTitans_4801.jpg]]

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

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

However, the episode "Things Change" and issue 51 of the ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'' comic also revealed that Terra's tragic "death", due to PowerIncontinence had not been permanent, and that she was happily living life as a normal schoolgirl, with no desire to return to either villainy or heroics.

* AbledInTheAdaptation: Terra in the cartoon has mental issues that are unspecified while Terra in the comics was explicitly psychopathic in ''The Judas Contract'' comic arc. Later {{retcon}}s, however, say that Terra was either drugged by Deathstroke or she was coerced into being how she was, rather than mentally ill.
* AdaptationalAttractiveness: She trades in her "normal girl" looks for a cuter design. She also lost her buck teeth.
* AdaptationalHairstyleChange: In the comics she has messy short hair, but here she has long straight hair.
* AdaptationalHeroism: Unlike her comic counterpart, Terra from the cartoon does come to regret betraying the Teen Titans and [[spoiler:sacrifices herself to save the city from a volcano eruption]] in a last-minute redemption.
* AdaptationalModesty: Played with. Tara Markov wore a leotard that showed off her legs. The TV version of Terra wears a T-shirt and shorts, which while shows less of her legs, also bares her midriff where her comics counterpart doesn't.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Terra in the comics calls her "friends" names and is always hounding on Beast Boy. It initially seemed to be playful with a bit of being a jerk, however her reveal as TheMole shows that she just genuinely disliked the Titans. In the cartoon, Terra is genuinely friendly and upbeat prior to teaming up with Slade.
* AdaptationalSympathy: Terra is portrayed ''far'' more sympathetically in the animated series than in the comics. In the comics, she was working against the Titans from the moment they met and was an irredeemable psychopath with dwindling sanity. She also had a lustful relationship with Slade. In the cartoon, she's instead genuinely interested in being a hero... but too vulnerable to emotional manipulation and paranoid, so she ultimately sabotages herself by playing right into Slade's hands.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: Her 1980s iteration was a sadistic and manipulative sociopath, while here she is a shy and insecure teenage princess.
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul:
** In the comics, Terra never had genuine feelings for Beast Boy, and slept with Deathstroke behind his back. Here, she had genuine feelings for Beast Boy before joining Slade.
** Her relationship with Slade is changed from secret villanous lovers with disturbing pedophile undertones, to a toxic and manipulative father-daughter relationship.
* AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength: "Don't lose control, Don't lose control".
* AllThereInTheManual: Her backstory is flashed out in the tie in comics.
* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:As of "Things Change," it's not clear if Terra truly has amnesia or if she's simply faking it because she desires a normal life; but the Teen Titans Go! comic strongly implies she remembers her brother. Either way, she doesn't have any desire to pursue her old life again, something which Beast Boy ultimately, and somewhat tragically, has to accept.]]
* AndIMustScream: Is heavily implied that [[spoiler:Terra was alive the whole time she turned into stone]].
* AntiVillain: It's not so much that Terra ''wants'' to be bad as she's fallen into bad company and has serious issues.
* ArcWelding: Terra's expanded backstory in ''Comicbook/TeenTitansGo'' shows a silhouetted General Immortus overseeing the experiments that gave her her powers.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:In "Things Change", she's flesh again and walking around]].
* BackForTheFinale: In "Things Change", Terra-but-not-Terra appears for the only and the last time in the GrandFinale.
* BadassAdorable: A pretty woobie with catastrophic Geokinesis.
* BecomingTheMask: Despite her betrayal, she really felt at home with the team.
* BeyondRedemption: After almost killing the Titans despite giving Terra a second chance, they consider she doesn't deserve another chance, their forgiveness and mercy.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Terra is a cute, big-eyed teenager who likes joking and goofing around. She can also be extremely violent and a WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds when provoked.
* BigEater: She can beat ''Cyborg'' in eating competitions. It's subtly implied to stem from her long period as a harassed drifter.
* BattleCouple: Briefly with Beast Boy.
* BreakTheCutie: She started out cracked due to a terrible past and [[CorruptTheCutie then Slade finished the job]].
* BrokenBird: Terra has a DarkAndTroubledPast involving human experimentation, inadvertently causing disasters due to suffering from PowerIncontinence, and being persecuted by people for causing disasters. Add in Slade's typical machinations, and she's an emotional mess.
* BroughtToYouByTheLetterS: Her second outfit when she return to the Titans, has a T on the chest.
* ButterflyOfTransformation: Terra owns a butterfly clip. In Issue 51, Beast Boy tells Brion that Starfire believes Terra's journey was akin to the one of a butterfly.
* TheChosenZero: Terra was chosen to be imbued with geokinetic powers, but ultimately she did not utilize them to live up to the hero she was forced to be.
* ClingyCostume: The armored suit Slade had fused with Terra's nervous system.
* ClothingDamage: Slade beats up Terra so badly that he tears down her ClingyCostume.
* ColorCodedCharacters: Yellow, being the color of her hair, outfit, and energy aura whenever she uses her powers.
* CompositeCharacter: Before Deathstroke's daughter Ravager appeared in the tie-in comics, Terra's character combined elements of Rose Wilson and Tara Markov, particularly the abusive relationship the comic version of Wilson had with her father, and the long, blonde hair of Wilson's that fell over one eye, creating a visual comparison with Slade.
* CursedWithAwesome: Terra had awesome [[DishingOutDirt geokinetic]] abilities... but [[PowerIncontinence no real ability to control them]], which led to a vicious cycle of her being driven away by angry people after she lost control of her powers and caused disasters. Lampshaded by Beast Boy after her demise.
--> '''Beast Boy''': Her name was Terra. She was gifted with tremendous power and cursed with it as well.
* CuteBruiser: Her geokinetic powers make her one of the more offense-orientated members of the team, and her blue eyed blonde appearance makes her very cute.
* CuteAndPsycho: The show depiction of Terra is LighterAndSofter compared to the comic version but still qualifies. She seems friendly, funny, and kind, although her DarkAndTroubledPast has saddled her with destructive tendencies that can, and if helped along by Slade, will, manifest as homicidal psychopathy. Her switch from a cool gal-pal to Slade's ApocalypseMaiden was astoundingly dark and quick to happen, given the show's track record at the time.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Terra was put through experiments that gave her the geokinesis by her own family. She was incapable to use her powers so she ran away.
* DarkActionGirl: She manages to hold her own against the Titans after her FaceHeelTurn, and, at the end, is the one to kill [[ManipulativeBastard Slade]].
* DarkMagicalGirl: Played Straight, considering the rivalry with a foil, abusive parental relationship, a FaceHeelTurn, [[spoiler:and a HeelFaceTurn that ''literally'' depowers her]].
* DarkSecret: Only in her mind really. Terra saw her inability to control her powers as some horrible crime.
* DeadpanSnarker: She likes to make friendly quips.
* DealWithTheDevil: Episode "Aftershock Part One" begins with Terra swearing to serve Slade and by his side forever in exchange for teaching her to control her powers.
* DeathGlare: She gives an absolutely chilling glare in Beast Boy's direction as she departs in the shadows with Slade.
* DefusingTheTykebomb: [[spoiler:Terra manages to do this to ''herself'', figuratively ''and'' literally by turning against Slade and inadvertently depowering herself]].
* DidYouActuallyBelieve: Terra mocks Raven for befriending and trusting her in their battle.
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: [[spoiler:Terra was turned to stone, not crushed to death as in the "The Judas Contract" comic story]].
* DishingOutDirt: She has control over all the earth and stone around her.
* TheDitherer: Of the Insecure/Submissive type; she is so weak willed that she cannot make her own decisions, nor take responsibility for her own doings, turning her into easy prey for [[ManipulativeBastard Slade]].
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: A lot of Terra's behavior (fear of intimacy, inability to settle down, paranoia, self-destructive tendencies, exaggerated startle response, desperate yearning for approval from a mentor figure that she ''knows'' will hurt her) are all very reminiscent of children who grew up in abusive households. Somewhat justifiable, given her own parents ''let'' their country's scientists use her as a guinea pig to induce metahuman powers, and she has been continually driven away by mobs of people for causing geological disasters.
* TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler:At the climax of season 2's final episode, Terra breaks free of Slade's control, attacks him, and knocks him into a pit of lava. Although she frames it as her realizing that the Titans were her real friends all along, it's quite obvious that Slade's berating her for her cowardice, beating her up for failing him, and revealing he always considered her nothing more than just a tool he could use to his own ends, complete with [[PeoplePuppets bodyjacking her]] in order to force her to fight when she instead wants to run, are major motivations for her aggressive betrayal of her former master.]]
* DoomMagnet: The reason Terra never stayed in a single place, is that whenever she tried to help the people, she ended up doing more harm, like mudslides and avalanches.
* TheDragon: Acts as this to Slade in "Aftershock Part 1" and "Aftershock Part 2" [[spoiler:until she pulls a HeelFaceTurn]].
* DyingMomentOfAwesome: She breaks free of Slade's control and turns herself to stone to prevent him using her to destroy the whole city.
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: She was a normal person before going through the experiments that gave her powers. Deconstructed, in that she couldn't control her powers after receiving them.
* EvilCostumeSwitch: When she openly becomes Slade's apprentice, she switches from her "Titan outfit" to a new suit that looks like a mixture of bandage wrapping and body armor.
* EvilFormerFriend: Terra joined forces with Slade after feeling betrayed by Beast Boy twice. Next time she returns, she considers all the Titans her enemies.
* ExpyCoexistence: Terra is a CompositeCharacter of her comic self and Rose Wilson, Slade's daughter, but while she and Rose never meet in the show simply because the latter appears only in the tie-in comics, they both exist within the same continuity.
* ExtremeOmnivore: The only one able to stomach Starfire's alien food and ''like it!'' Like her BigEater status, it most likely comes from her long time on the run, where she would have learned to eat ''anything'' that was available or else starve.
* FailureHero: Hinted at it when Slade starts to deconstructs her past in front of her. Terra constantly tried to do good, help people, but because she could not control her powers, she was always doomed to make things worse and provoke natural disasters like avalanches and mudslides, angering the very people she was trying to save. Little wonder that they turned against her. She tried again with the Titans, but Slade's words poisoned her mind too much and she turned against them twice. Her only win is killing Slade, but she ends up killing herself too. [[spoiler:In the end, she is brought back to life, but abandons any pretention of being a hero and choses to be an ordinary person]].
* FakingAmnesia: [[spoiler:When Beast Boy finds her in the last animated episode, she pretends like she doesn't remember him, at first. When Beast Boy expresses sympathy towards her, she indicates she is interested in him, but only if he acknowledges her as the Schoolgirl instead of Terra. He does not take the hint. Teen Titans Go! Issue 51 indicates that she does remember her past, particularly her brother Brion, as she spots him leaving the grounds of the Murakami School and gives a wistful smile]].
* FallingInLoveMontage: Beast boy has his own montage with Terra falling in love on their first date at a fair. They take photos, have fun on roller coasters and eat pancakes together. Everything takes a darker turn when is revealed she was Slade's spy all along.
* FatalFlaw: Terra has a tendency to run when a situation gets bad, instead of confronting her problems or asking for help.
* FaustianRebellion: Slade taught Terra to control her powers in exchange for becoming his apprentice. She latter rebels against him and sends him into molten lava.
* FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence: When Robin asks Terra why does she hates the Titans so much, her answer is 'You were born'.
* FerrisWheelDateMoment: Not the only one in the show, but Beast Boy and Terra's stands out because Slade was with them in the cabin the whole time and they had no idea. And he interrupts them when the two love birds were about to have their FirstKiss.
* {{Foil}}:
** Raven and Terra have a unique dynamic going on if you take the entire series into account. Both are young female teen superheroes with PowerIncontinence issues and [[HeroWithBadPublicity public image problems]] -- Raven due to her half-demon nature making her come off as CreepyGood and her prophesied role to end the world, Terra due to [[DestructiveSavior the massive damage she leaves in her wake]]. However, their reactions to this issue are mirror images of each other. Raven ''accepts'' her flaws and works to overcome them; she works tirelessly to bring her powers under control and strives to be a hero in hopes of making up for the evil in her blood. Terra, on the other hand, ''runs away'' from her problems, both literally and metaphorically, by blaming others, making excuses for herself, and wallowing in self-pity. Whereas Raven constantly meditates and represses herself to establish her control, Terra fell in with Slade because he promised a quick and easy way for her to get the control she always wanted. Raven is incredibly loyal to her teammates, who she is implies to view as a surrogate family, whilst Terra happily betrayed the Titans to Slade in exchange for his "help". [[spoiler: The end of their respective character arcs further highlights their similarities and differences. Both hit the DespairEventHorizon, but Raven claws her way back from it, with a little encouragement from her friends, and continues fighting crime, whilst Terra ''literally'' declares ThatManIsDead and turns her back on her powers so she can enjoy a normal life]].
** With Starfire. They are both princesses that had to leave their homes, and are gifted with tremendous powers. Starfire was born with her powers in a loving environment, she was sold to the gordanians by her own sociopathic sister and escaped to Earth where she met the Titans for the first time, and despite being strangers she trusted them to chase the gordonians away. Terra was born on Earth without powers, to manipulative parents, who used their both children for experiments, leading to Terra gaining her geokinesis. Both have older siblings, but Blackfire is a sociopath who is ready to sold both her sister and her planet, while Geoforce defended his country and was always protective of Terra, and was heartbroken when she left Markovia. As for their powers and personalities, Starfire is a confident young woman who uses her powers at their fullest potential, whereas Terra was always an insecure StepfordSmiler with powers she couldn't control.
* ForgottenFallenFriend: Terra is mentioned again in Season 4.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Terra goes from a shy and insecure girl to villain capable to destroy a city.
* GlassCannon: Terra is very strong in the offensive, almost unstoppable, but she has all the weaknesses of a normal human being, which is shown when the Titans almost injure her in the rebound.
* GratuitousPrincess: Her comics counterpart is an illegitimate child of the king of Markovia. Here she is the legitimate daughter of the king and queen, making her explicitly a princess.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Terra's eyes glow yellow when she uses her geokinesis.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Played with; she's introduced as a sweet, friendly blonde NiceGirl who gets along really well with the Titans, until she runs off at the end of her debut episode. She then returns several episodes later and joins the team, only to be revealed as TheMole with a subsequent FaceHeelTurn. But by the end of the season, she's bounced back to the side of good [[spoiler:via a TakenForGranite HeroicSacrifice]].
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: In the episode, "Betrayal", she is on the edge between Heel and Face, having doubts and regrets about what she's done. When Slade reveals the truth, she reaches out to Beast Boy hoping he'll understand. Instead, he says "you don't have any friends" and she goes completely over to Slade.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: She started off good, had a FaceHeelTurn when she went to Slade and became his mole, had a semi HeelFaceTurn that [[HeelFaceDoorSlam got slammed in her face]] when she tried to coax Beast Boy to join her instead of being destroyed with the rest of the Titans only for Beast Boy to chew her out for being a traitor, had an even ''bigger'' FaceHeelTurn as a response by gleefully hunting down and trying to kill the Titans at Slade's behest afterwards, and finally made a permanent HeelFaceTurn when she realized Slade was using her all along and she turned on him... [[spoiler:[[RedemptionEqualsDeath at the cost of her life]]. Or so it seemed...]]
* HeroOfAnotherStory: As Terra says in her own words when the Titans meet her for the first time: "I go where the wind takes me. You know? I get to see new places, meet new people, stop a few bad guys here and there".
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:She stops a volcano from erupting at the cost of being petrified]].
* IcyBlueEyes: After becoming Slade's apprentice, Terra's blue eyes have a vicious expression it them.
* IconicSequelCharacter: Terra is introduced in the third episode of Season 2.
* TheIngenue: At the beginning Terra is pretty much an innocent young girl, and so naive that took the word of an evil man despite being warned about their evil deeds.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: [[spoiler:The reason why she is happy to be a schoolgirl instead of a hero in "Things Change". She'd much rather tackle homework than super villains]].
* ImNotAHeroIm:"...not out to save the world. I'm just a girl with a geometry test next period and I haven't studied."
* IRegretNothing: Terra's opening monologue in "Aftershock Part Two".
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: Already heavily influenced by Slade, she'd hoped to run away with Beast Boy after betraying the rest of the Titans to him. As might be expected, this didn't go well.
* LackOfEmpathy: She's evidently capable of feeling sympathy, but not empathy. She takes pity on Beast Boy and tries to get him to escape the attack on Titans Tower, ''but'', she has no clue how he could be so mad at her for trying to kill his TrueCompanions, especially after he promised to always be her friend. Consequently, she becomes enraged with him without even trying to look at it from his point of view.
* LeanAndMean: She is a scrawny teenager by comparison with [[MostCommonSuperpower Starfire and Raven]].
* {{Leitmotif}}: She's one of the few major characters to have her own theme song, a jazzy European-sounding track that plays when she's using her power (either wrecking up an obstacle course or beating down Sladebots). [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxgustqhHlk It's surprisingly catchy]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXvRkzogu7Y And so's the extended version]].
* LossOfIdentity: As a child Terra was always confused about her own identity, and was never allowed to decide anything for her.
* LoveInterestTraitor: To Beast Boy. When he finally asks her out on a date, she accepts, but then he discovers Terra betrayed the team by selling them out to their biggest enemy Slade and she agreed to the date so at least Beast Boy would be spared the night Slade's forces attack the tower. Although he was obviously angry at the reveal, Beast Boy still has feelings for Terra after her betrayal and tries reaching out to her.
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: Terra is a TomboyPrincess who is not afraid of horror themed parks and has a lot of emotional baggage to deal with, while Beast Boy is not in fond of them, is more easy going and relaxed than her.
* MeaningfulName: "Terra" means "earth" and she is, in many ways, literally defined by her [[DishingOutDirt geokinesis]].
* TheMole: From her second appearance on she's reporting to Slade on the Titans' activity.
* MoreThanMindControl: [[ManipulativeBastard Slade]] played on her paranoia and burned heroics.
* {{Motif}}: Reflections and butterfly imagery play a large role in episodes and comics featuring Terra, symbolizing her ever-shifting sense of identity and self-image, [[spoiler:and her eventual maturation into a confident, independent, happy young woman]].
* MultiEthnicName: Terra is a name of Latin origins, while Markov, despite being a made-up name, is supposed to be a slavic or baltic name.
* NeverMyFault:
** PlayedForDrama. Terra's paranoia that others will blame her for disasters that ''aren't'' her fault, as they have in the past, leads to her refusing to accept responsibility for disasters that actually ''are'' her fault. Indeed, this is the ultimate root of her entire villainous arc; she chooses to go to Slade after believing Beast Boy betrayed her (Robin just figured out her secret and didn't know it was supposed to be a secret) and then chooses of her own free will to repay her debt to Slade by infiltrating and betraying the Teen Titans. She even notes in the opening voiceover for "Aftershock Part 2" that she feels no guilt for betraying or seemingly murdering her former friends... and then [[VillainsWantMercy gets upset when they return and treat her as a serious supervillain]].
** [[spoiler:Averted when Terra finally takes responsibility for her mistakes in "Aftershock Part 2" after Beast Boy calls her out on it, where she stops a catastrophic earthquake triggered by her powers, turning herself into stone in the process]].
* NewcomerSavesTheDay: Yeah, especially when is engineered to look like Terra is there to save the day by Slade, whose actual plan was to stage an attack that would let Terra show off her skills to the Teen Titans, and earn herself a place on their team.
* NiceGirl: When the Titans first met her, Terra was a friendly girl.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: To Raven. Episodes featuring the two highlight their many similarities and grudging friendship. [[spoiler:It's Raven who accurately pegs Terra's aspirations to normalcy in "Things Change"]].
-->'''Raven''': [[spoiler:Maybe she didn't ''want'' to be found]].
* NotGoodWithRejection: When Terra reveals to Beast Boy how she was working for Slade she begs him to say that despite that he'll still be her friend. Beast Boy says coldly "Slade was right, you don't have any friends." In response she gets a horrified look on her face before retreating into the shadows and putting on a expression made of TranquilFury. She later punches him in the face when pulling a Face–Heel Turn and swearing revenge on him and the other Titans before trying to kill him.
* NotQuiteFlight: She flies by standing on rocks and levitating them.
* NotWearingTights: When the Titans first meet her, Terra wears normal clothes instead of a costume like them. After running away and returning to the team, Terra wears an uniform with the letter "T" over her chest.
* MetaTwist: Unlike most versions, she is not a the bastard child of the Markovian King, and neither a redeemless sociopath.
* OutOfFocus: After Season 2, where she allegedly dies.
* PeekABangs: In her second appearance, her hair slides over one of her eyes. It's a visual cue to her true loyalty.
* PeoplePuppets: The battle suit Slade gave Terra was designed to control Terra's powers, and her as well. She manages to override it and finish him off.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Even before being trained by Slade she was capable to destroy (unwillingly) a huge stone quarry.
-->'''Slade''': You lack control, Terra. And when you lose control, you are more dangerous than anything I've ever seen.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Physically she's a skinny and tiny girl, but can create earthquakes and throw giant boulders.
* PowerIncontinence: Why she's broken and paranoid; she can't control her powers, and people have always lashed out at her when they realise that she is the one (inadvertently) causing the disasters.
* PrettyPrincessPowerhouse: She is a princess and one of the most powerful meta-humans InUniverse. Eve though the Titans held back, the fact that she took down the entire team one by one and than over the entire city should make Terra a force to be reckon with.
* PsychoExGirlfriend: Terra was not exactly on the evil side until Beast Boy rejected her, which turned her over Slade's completely. After, she becomes hellbent on killing him and his friends.
* RebelliousPrincess: She is a runaway princess, whose older brother is looking for her.
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:Turning against Slade and fixing the mess she made leads to her petrification. However, since she ultimately gets out of that, this becomes RedemptionEarnsLife]].
* RegretfulTraitor: When Terra sets up Titan Tower to be attacked, she gets enough cold feet to try to save Beast Boy and eventually breaks down apologizing to him when he finds out.
* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: In the comics she is just a bastard child of the King, but the tie-in comics made her a legitimate child and a full-blood sister to Brion.
* RepressedMemories: Slade implies that Terra chose to not remember anything that happened after [[spoiler:being revived by unknown means]] since she felt the damage she had done after betraying the team would have caused more pain for her.
* RetiredBadass: She gave up her failed superhero life for a happier and more fullfiling life as a high schooler.
* RichesToRags: From a princess who used to live in a castle to a vagabond who sleeps on the ground.
* RiddleForTheAges: [[spoiler:Terra's ultimate fate. Did she really come back from the dead? If so, does she really have amnesia, or is she just faking it? Each of the Titans has a different answer, and the series ends without resolving the issue]].
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Downplayed. While she is both a princess and superhero, she doesn't pick up the latter until she runs away and becomes a vagabond. While she's a princess the whole time, it comes up less often than Starfire.
* TheRunaway: She fled her country due to the experiments they were doing on her. Now she walks the earth endlessly.
* {{Ruritania}}: She is from Markovia.
* SaveTheDayTurnAway: Played with. Terra would rather not be acknowledged as a villain or hero. [[spoiler:High school's more her style.]]
* SecretLegacy: Formerly Princess Tara of Markovia.
* SelectiveObliviousness: Played for drama; her paranoia is so bad that, in her first episode, she immediately leaps to the conclusion that Beast Boy betrayed her by breaking his promise and telling Robin about her PowerIncontinence... despite both Robin's detective skills as Batman's sidekick being well known and the fact she had a pretty obvious bout of PowerIncontinence right in front of the whole team.
* SixthRangerTraitor: She joined the core team a long time after they had formed a team, and eventually betrayed them.
* SkySurfing: Terra learns to simulate flight through a levitating boulder.
* SlasherSmile: Cracks a few after becoming Slade's Dragon.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: When officially part of the Titans, Terra's uniform was a midriff-baring outfit featuring a black shirt with a yellow "T" on it.
* StarCrossedLovers: With Beast Boy due to eventually [[spoiler:being turned to stone, and after that, apparently depowered and stripped of her memories]].
* StartingANewLife: As Beast Boy points out to Brion, Terra chose to start a new life away from everyone who was part of her old life. In present she is just a mere student girl.
* StatusQuoIsGod: This Terra was never really allowed to feel like part of the team. The episode immediately after she joins has her conspicuously absent save a non-speaking cameo at the end and the following episode has her betraying the team.
* StepfordSmiler: Before her FaceHeelTurn she acts friendly and nice because she doesn't want people to see her nerves.
* StepfordSnarker: After her FaceHeelTurn, she replaces smile with snark. Robin doesn't buy into it, giving her a KirkSummation that shakes her to her core in one episode and a YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre speech in a later one.
* SuperPowerMeltdown: Everytime she loses control of her powers.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: In the opening voiceover to the season 2 finale, Aftershock Part 2: "I have done horrible things, and I have absolutely ''no regrets''."
* TamerAndChaster: This Terra was made a specifically to be kid-friendly. Her sexual affair with Slade from the comics was turned into a twisted daughter-father relationship.
* TakenForGranite: The strain of using her powers to stop an impending volcanic eruption causes a backlash that turns her into stone. [[spoiler:By the end of season 5, she's reverted to normal, presumably depowered, and is now living a civilian life.]]
* TakeOverTheCity: With Slade assistance, she almost conquers Jump City with implied casualties among the civilians.
* TearsOfFear: Terra sheds tears when Slade begins controlling her body through the special suit she was wearing.
* TeensAreShort: She is about Beast Boy's height.
* ThatManIsDead: [[spoiler:She tells Beast Boy the Terra he thought he knew is now just a memory in her final appearance]].
* {{Tomboy}}: She's got no problems with [[{{Pun}} getting dirty]].
* TomboyPrincess: A consequence of constantly traveling on her own. A princess without an entourage will do a lot of dirty work.
* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She is TomboyPrincess, but has she enjoys romantic things like dating.
* TooDumbToLive: Terra's ProtagonistJourneyToVillain, as tragic as it may be, does ultimately stem from Terra making some pretty dumb decisions.
** Firstly, despite being warned by Robin that Slade is [[TheCorruptor a master manipulator who loves to play headgames and is always seeking to ensnare super-teens as his pawns]], what does Terra do? That's right, she lets Slade get her alone and then she lets him get under her skin as he blatantly tries to recruit her.
** Secondly, when Robin notes after welcoming her to the Titans that they'll need to work on her PowerIncontinence, Terra ''immediately'' accuses Beast Boy of betraying her and runs away... as opposed to recalling either A: that Robin is publicly known to be Batman's former apprentice, and Batman is famous as one of the world's greatest detectives, B: that she had a ''very obvious'' narrowly-averted SuperPowerMeltdown during the battle they all just participated in, or C: both A and B. What makes this even worse is that Robin was neither hostile nor confrontational when he brought it up, simply acknowledging it as a legitimate issue that needed working on, so there was really no need for her to run away like that.
** Finally, after running away from the Titans, Terra decides the perfect person to go to in pursuit of finally mastering her PowerIncontinence, which the Titans had already freely offered to do, is... Slade. The creepy, manipulative, ObviouslyEvil self-admitted supervillain with plans of conquest and domination. There comes a point where it almost seems like Terra [[ThenLetMeBeEvil was really on the verge of turning supervillain anyway after all her hard luck]], and Slade was just a convenient excuse.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Zig-Zagged. Once she receives a HeelFaceDoorSlam, Terra is enraged, alternately sadly reminiscing of her time together with her friends in one moment and lashing out at them the next, culminating in her begging Beast Boy to [[NeverSayDie "destroy"]] her.
* TownGirls: The Butch to Raven's Neither and Starfire's Femme. She's rather tomboyish.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Pizza.
* TragicVillain: Terra was just a troubled girl who didn't know better and just used as a tool by a psychopathic terrorist.
* {{Tykebomb}}: She was made into one to defend Markovia and left before her powers could be stabilized. Later, Slade hones her abilities and preys on her insecurities to make her into a more effective one.
* UnexplainedRecovery: [[spoiler: Discussed and PlayedForDrama. None of the Titans have any idea how Terra came back to life, nor does the show offer an explanation.]]
* UnskilledButStrong: Terra in a nutshell and deconstructed in her case. As Slade points out, there are tragic consequences when an insecure and untrained person with incredible powers try to interfere. People will turn against them out of fear if more harm is done than good.
* UnstablePoweredWoman: Terra's inability to control her powers resulted in causing multiple natural disasters and her becoming a runaway in order to avoid hurting others, eventually turning to Slade when he promises to be able to give the control she so desperately wants.
* VillainsWantMercy: In the season 2 finale, Terra had ambushed each of the Titans and took them out one by one with an almost sadistic glee. By the beginning of the following episode, they come back with a vengeance and attack her, catching Terra off guard. She even had the nerve to beg Beast Boy not to attack her despite her attempts on their lives the previous episode.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Raven. After several disagreements they finally come to understand each other. Too bad that Terra was already TheMole for Slade by the time it happened.
* WalkingTheEarth: Given that she is from Markovia, a fictional country that exists in Europe, she travelled quite the distance from one continent to another.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: After her HeelFaceTurn, she becomes this to the original Titans, who mourn her loss to an extent but temper that sorrow with acceptance of how much she endangered them.
* WeakWilled: She is so lost and confused that she desperately needs someone else to set her life's course for her. Only at the end does she finally find the strength to choose for herself.
* WitchWithACapitalB: She calls Raven a "witch" during their MudWrestling.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Her powers cause earthquakes because she can't control them. She turns evil because she fell in with a horrible parental influence.

* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Averted, since she's a superheroine.

* BadassNormal
* DemotedToExtra
* KatanasAreJustBetter

* BareYourMidriff: Her outfit in all her appearances bares her stomach.

* AdaptationalModesty: Played with. Tara Markov wore a leotard that showed off her legs. The TV version of Terra wears a T-shirt and shorts, which while shows less of her legs, also [[BareYourMidriff bares her midriff]] where her comics counterpart doesn't.

* BareYourMidriff: When officially part of the Titans, Terra's uniform was a midriff-baring outfit featuring a black shirt with a yellow "T" on it.

* ElectricBlackGuy: Bumblebee is a teenage African-American woman who uses a pair of stingers that blast electricity at the targets.

* MsFanservice: Bumblebee is well-endowed, wears a body fit hero costume which shows her torso, and she not in lack of MaleGaze for sure.
