* MostCommonSuperpower: Averted. While this is one of her most notable traits in the actual comics, Paul specifically notes that she's more "realistically proportioned" in person. She's still rather busty, just not cartoonishly so.



* NotSoAboveItAll: She almost completely lacks negative emotional traits that Paul can pick up, with one exception - she's notably angered when Paul reveals that The Shade simply pretended to lose to her back in the 40's, as in reality he is far stronger than her and simply nerfed himself to give himself a challenge. While she doesnt have the temper she did back then, it still upsets her, which leads to...

His investigative abilities are ''high'' and his ability to donate large amount of money to disaster relief charities means that he's quite good at those as well. His vast plethora of equipment, tactical and strategic acumen means that he's basically never useless in combat, no matter how powerful the opponent. Not much use in space, though.

[[folder: Wonder Woman/Diana]]

* TheMentor: While on paper Wonder Woman is sponsor for Orange Lantern, who's supposed to be Alan Scott's apprentice. Due to Alan being in his 90s and no way to recharge his own ring, she's functionally OL's mentor despite their very different powerset.
** She also becomes one to Superboy due to OL expressing concern for Superboy's training. She's one of the few that Superboy can safely fight hand-to-hand.
* MsFanservice: Is considered attractive by everyone, she is amused by it.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Has been around since World War II and still hasn't aged a bit. She notes that at 85, she's gotten a little broody.
* ParentalSubstitute: She has this rapport with Superboy. [[spoiler: She later flat out adopts him as her son.]]
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Gets this from Renegade.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Becomes OL and Superboy's mentor and acts as guide and voice of reason.
* SexyMentor: While OL denies it, he does find Wonder Woman attractive.
* SoProudOfYou: Is proud that she became Paul's mentor and helped foster the person he became.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Batman/Bruce Wayne]]

* CrazyPrepared: Batman takes the cake. He managed to take down Constantine, when John was under a spell that made him invisible and so that no one wanted to even look at him. Batman noticed that no one was going into a certain part of the room or even looking at that part of the room, so he started attacking it to make sure.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Surprisingly reasonable.
* ThouShallNotKill[=/=]TechnicalPacifist : While he doesn't like killing, he does acknowledge their work is dangerous and sometimes accidents happen.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Superman/Clark Kent]]

* BrokenPedestal: OL (both Renegade and Paragon) dislike him for how he treats Superboy, especially since the man is Kon's idol and is known to be desperate to have any Kryptonian connection.
* DamnedByFaintPraise: Invoked by OL in a rather backhanded assurance. OL told him that Superman was in his rights to reject Kon, when Superman was changing his mind about Kon and already felt guilty.
* HeelRealization: In the Paragon timeline, he has a change of heart and desired to know Kon better after Kon and the Team free the League from the Light.
** [[spoiler: HeelFaceDoorSlam: His attempts are soundly rejected by Paul, who is offended on Kon's behalf on how he treated Kon for the past months. He explained it in a rather rational way, though.]]
* IntrepidReporter: In his public identity.
* JerkassHasAPoint: While Paul admits he thinks Superman as cruel for rejecting Kon, he does have a point that it's unfair to expect of Superman to take on someone who was made without his consent and has no true obligation to.
* SecretIdentity: It annoys the heck out of OL.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Green Lantern 2814-A/Hal Jordan]]

* [[ByTheBookCop By The Book Superhero]]: Jordan is very orderly and law-abiding which causes him to clash with OL's chaotic nature.
* BoringButPractical: His constructs.
* HeadbuttingHeroes: He and OL do not get along due to their massive difference in ideology.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Says to Paul that even though he understands his powers are limited in usefulness compared to Paul's, he's willing to work within the (restrictive) rules because it allows him to protect his own homeworld from huge threats to it (Alien invasions, demons, mad scientists, etc.)
* WhatTheHellHero: Gives OL one when OL decides to kill the Head of the Demon.

[[folder: Green Lantern 2814-C/John Stewart]]
* MundaneUtility: Uses his Green Lantern to repair damage caused by superhero fights.

[[folder: Captain Marvel/Billy Batson/Beowolf]]

* {{Adorkable}}: Kind of ditzy and awkward, which kind of endears him to others. Even [[spoiler: Teth Adom]] enjoys his company.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Believed his parents to have been killed by bandits, [[spoiler: found that they were ritually sacrificed by their friend Theodore Adam.]]
* KidHero: Since OL immediately knows who he is, this is played up more.
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: Is chosen as Shazam's champion because of his pure heart. Despite his rage at Theodore Adam, he is able to overcome it knowing that Adam will face justice.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: He congratulates Superman on becoming a father when he finds out about Match, not knowing Superman's discomfort over his clones.
* ManChild: To those who don't know him.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When he found out that Theodore Adam killed his parents, he was ''angry.'' When that he couldn't take on Black Adam because he had to seen with the League taking down the giant man-eating plants, he was '''furious!'''
* OnlyThePureCanWield: Wields the Sword of Beowolf in the Renegade timeline and uses it to full effect.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Doctor Fate/Nabu]]

* BerserkButton: Despises people with chaotic natures like John Constantine or Orange Lantern.
* ClingyCostume: Once someone puts him on, he won't let go.
* FatalFlaw: The only thing that overpowers his pursuit of order is his desire of a body, especially a magical one. [[spoiler: Renegade!OL exploits this to easily assimilate him for Zatara's safety.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: His wants and his goals trump everyone else's in his mind.
* KnightTemplar: Is fully dedicated to the pursuit of order but lets nothing stand in his way.
* LegacyHero[=/=]TheNthDoctor: Well, while the "Hero" bit is somewhat debatable, The Helmet of Nabu is passed along from person to person. Constantine, Zatanna, and OL all go to the original tomb in Bilaya to find the resting place of all of Nabu's former hosts [[spoiler:including his original, [[BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy alien body he used before transferring his consciousness into the helmet.]]]]
* SealedGoodInACan: How he seems like to everyone else...
* SealedEvilInACan: What he actually is in practice. He has no regard to the lives of his hosts even before he got desperate. In Kent Nelson's journals, he would deliberately sabotage Nelson's relationships so he would wear Nabu more. He nearly traps Kid Flash and successfully traps Zatara.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: People respect Nabu but they don't trust him in the least.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Zatara/Giovanni Zatara/[[spoiler: Doctor Fate]] ]]

* BerserkButton: John Constantine [[spoiler:since thanks in part to him, his wife died]].
* DoomedByCanon
* ExactWords: He swears to Nabu that he will let Nabu wear him. [[spoiler: It doesn't take into account that an assimilated construct Nabu can be ordered by Grayven to allow Zatara to take him off.]]
* IGaveMyWord
* TheMentor: Especially so in the Renegade timeline, [[spoiler: where he and Nabu have a more symbiotic relationship and he teaches the order magic he learns from Nabu.]]
* LostLenore: His wife, Sindella.
* ParentsInDistress: Zatanna, Paul and Constantine are determined to rescue him from Nabu.
* ProperlyParanoid: He is very protective of Zatanna and by extension, Paul for good reasons. Zatanna is very unexperienced and her costume was initially very impractical before OL stepped in. He freaks out when Paul gets magical tattoos from Constantine because people who hang around Constantine tend to die or suffer horribly.
* SecretIdentity: Averted, his real name and address is known to the public and he's famous magician.
* [[spoiler: SparedByTheAdaptation: Gets to remain in control of his body due to Renegade!OL assimilating Nabu to force him to give Zatara his freedom.]]
* WithFriendsLikeThese: All of his friends and allies treats his possession by Nabu as if he died. They don't bother to tell his family or employees what happened to him. Which causes Paul and Zatanna to ''seethe''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Martian Manhunter/J'onn J'onzz]]

* TheMentor: Deconstructed, it's noted that while he's a good superhero and the only Martian around on Earth, he's a ''terrible'' teacher. Both Paragon and Renegade OL call him out on exactly how bad things got, and how ''he'' is the one to blame.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: He and M'gann were largely responsible for the disasters that were Contingency and Reordered. Unlike M'gann, though, the mistakes he made could have been prevented with foresight- M'gann's actions were purely accidental.
* RageAgainstTheMentor: Gets a lot of this from Orange Lantern on M'gann's behalf.
* ShapeshifterModeLock: When he was branded by [[spoiler: Paulphidian]] he could not access his shapeshifting until the brand was removed.
* WhatTheHellHero: Is called out for being a terrible teacher to M'gann.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Black Canary/Dinah Lance]]
* BreakTheHaughty: Inflicted on her twice by Paragon!OL:
* DemotedToExtra: She doesn't have as much as a role as TheMentor as she does in canon because it mostly taken by Wonder Woman for Orange Lantern and Superboy.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: The Flash II/Barry Allen]]
* OutOfFocus: Rarely gets the spotlight.
* SuperSpeed
