* TheWorfEffect: They get hit pretty hard with this. In "Notes from the Underground, Part 1" and the first half of Part 2, they go head-to-head with the Turtles. Then in the second half of Part 2 and all of Part 3, they are scared from the other mutants and are easily overpowered by them. Justified, since the other mutants are much more powerful and fierce than they are.

Justified, since It serves to establish that the other mutants are much more powerful and fierce than they are.



* AbortedArc: His desire to return to the Utroms as he noted in his debut episode is never brought up again since the Turtles lack the ability to contact the Utroms. Even when they do meet them again, Leatherhead is never depicted actively trying to go back with them as he originally wanted.



* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Downplayed. He humbly admits that Donnie is his superior in regards to intellect, as well as conceding that Donnie did the majority of the work on the outbreak virus. He ends up being the Someone Better to ''Stockman'' of all people. Once he has access to Bishop's resources, he quickly develops a cure for the outbreak virus whereas Stockman was getting nowhere.



* ManlyTears: He is shown to openly weep on occasion when under significant duress... or when he attends Casey and April's wedding.



* TruerToTheText: His [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 previous series' counterpart]] was a notably [[AdaptationalVillainy a villain]] who antagonized anyone he saw as weaker. Starting with this incarnation, Leatherhead would only antagonize the Turtles due to misunderstandings and quickly became their friend akin to the original comics.

to:

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: In "Good Genes" he nearly kills Stockman due to Bishop lying about having a cure for Donnie's mutation, but Splinter is able to convince him to stand down and work with Stockman for Donnie's sake. Leatherhead accepts and actually finds the real cure for the outbreak.

-> '''Quarry''': Those crystals are the embodiment of evil.

Quarry is one of the many individuals that were kidnapped and mutated by the Foot.
----
* AcidAttack: His main form of attack.
* AlienLunch: In "Notes from the Underground, Part 2", Quarry says that they had to adapt to the native creatures of Underground, which he demonstrates by eating one of them.
* CensorSteam: When Quarry is unfrozen and reverted back to his human form in "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", there's some convenient steam that covers his naughty bits.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: If you look closely at Quarry's design, you may see that he has long hair. This foreshadows [[{{Reveal}} the reveal]] that he, or she, is in fact a girl.
** In "Notes from the Underground, Part 2", Quarry only remembers that his name started with an S. In "Return to the Underground", his name is revealed to be Sydney.
* GivenNameReveal: In "Return to the Underground", Quarry gets permanently cured and tells the Turtles his, or her, name: it's Sydney.
* HorrifyingTheHorror: Just saying "horrified" will be an understatement. In "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", Quarry ''is absolutely terrified'' of [[NamesToRunAwayFrom Necropolis]] and the entity that lurks within it.
* ItCanThink: While the other mutants are also quite intelligent[[note]]...until they go feral[[/note]], special mention goes to Quarry, since he understands how to use the underground crystals and how to use the Foot's technology.
* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: In "Return to the Underground", the Turtles find that she has gone feral. Mikey tries this on her, [[{{Subverted}} but it doesn't work]].
* NakedOnRevival: When Quarry seems to be cured at the end of "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", he, or in fact she, doesn't have any clothes.
* SamusIsAGirl: At the end of "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", Quarry is the first "cured" mutant and the Turtles discover that he is a girl.
* SuddenlySpeaking: During the entirety of "Notes from the Underground, Part 1" and the first half of Part 2, he remains silent, up until he realizes that the Turtles are not their enemies.
* TearsOfJoy: Quarry after returning to the surface as a human.
* WallCrawl: He's able to craw the walls of the caverns, though that isn't exclusive to him.

Stonebiter and Razorfist are the companions of Quarry. Strong and intelligent, they are two of the three Underground Mutants who haven't gone feral.
----
* AmbiguousSituation: Are they [[TheSpeechless not capable of speech due to their mutation]], or [[TheVoiceless are they capable but refuse to]]?
* DishingOutDirt: Sort of. Stonebiter has the ability to dig, but he doesn't have any powers over the earth.
* GeniusBruiser: Downplayed, as while they can pretty much use brute force when fighting the Turtles, the two have been shown to use tacticts against them: Stonebiter caused an earthquake that nearly engulfed the Turtles, while Razorfist pushed a giant boulder against them.
* MeaningfulName: Razorfist has giant pincers, while Stonebiter can dig through the earth.
* MythologyGag: Stonebiter's appearance is very similar to Complete Carnage, a minor villain from the Mirage comics.
* PowerPincers: Razorfist has these.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Stonebiter has red eyes, but he isn't evil.
* ScaryScorpions: Razorfist resembles a giant mutated scorpion.
* SuddenlySpeaking: While completely silent in the show, Razorfist says one line in a cutscene of the video game. He doesn't say anything else before or after.
* TemporarilyAVillain: In "Return to the Underground", they go feral alongside all the other mutants until they are cured.
* TheWorfEffect: They get hit pretty hard with this. In "Notes from the Underground, Part 1" and the first half of Part 2, they go head-to-head with the Turtles. Then in the second half of Part 2 and all of Part 3, they are scared from the other mutants and are easily overpowered by them.

* KangarooCourt: At the end of "Exodus" part 2, a group of Utroms act as judges during Ch'rell's trial and proceed to list every crime he has committed before banishing him to an ice asteroid. Despite the trope's name, this is arguably a subversion since Ch'rell is guilty as sin of everything the Utrom judges are condemning him for.
* KickTheSonOfABitch: Stranding someone on a frozen planetoid to die all alone in a far-flung part of outer space might seem inhumanly cruel, but given the many, ''many'' crimes Ch'rell committed against Utroms, mutants and humans alike, the Utroms are frankly being lenient when they do this to him.

* GoodIsNotSoft: He's on the good guys' side, but don't let that fool you. He's gonna use extreme measures to take out his opponents, even ''guns'' at one point.[[note]] In "Nobody's Fool", he nearly gunned down ''Leo and Mikey'', until he recognized them. In the same episode, he later picks up what is essentially a ''Triceraton bazooka''.[[/note]] In his next appearences, appearances, however, he stopped using them.



** MeaningfulRename: During his debut episode, he largely calls himself Nobody. However, after he foils Ruffington's weapons deal and leaves him to the authorities, the arms dealer asks him who he truly is. Nobody replies "somebody".

* BigGood: As a whole, the stranded Utroms more or less served as this in earlier seasons. Not only did they oppose the Foot Clan and the Shredder long before the Turtes and Splinter's creation, but they also were responsible ''for'' the heroes' creation, whose actions over the course of the series would lead to the downfall of Shredder and the Foot Clan.

* BatmanGambit: Knowing the Triceratons and the Federation will relentesly search and kill in order to obtain his teleportal, Fugitoid deletes the Teleportal plans and comes to Earth in "Worlds Collide" part 1, where he tries to surrender himself to them. If one of the sides captures him, he will upload a virus, that will cripple both sides' forces, which will force them to surrender. While this plan works with the Federation, [[SubvertedTrope the Triceratons realize this]] and use it to their advantage by destroying their helpless enemy...until Traximus' rebels come in and overthrow Zanramon.
