* FauxAffablyEvil: He jokes around and even asks if Artemis and Green Arrow would just let him kill Jones and go about his business. He's still an assassin with no qualms about murdering a man in front of his daughter. In ''Outsiders'', he acts very chummy with an assassination target, telling him that he deserved to have a grand old time in a nightclub... because this is to be his last night on Earth.

* FoeRomanceSubtext: In season 1, she's clearly attracted to Red Arrow, flirts with him to no end, and even steals a kiss during a fight. All subtext is dispensed with in ''Invasion''; they've since fallen in love, married, and had a child together.

In many cases, being a CombatPragmatist is your best bet to outfighting her, as Batman proves.

Whilst this series does show him to be somewhat intelligent, its mostly in the opportunistic sense rather than the schemer from the comics and he doesn't seem to have any further ambitions for himself other than being in control of Santa Prisca. His strength and combat abilities seem somewhat downplayed as well. His debut features him on the losing side of a CurbStompBattle with Mammoth. In the comics, Bane came out on top when he and Mammoth met. He also loses to Robin and Zatanna later on.

He does this whilst talking to persons whose powers include SuperSpeed, {{Telekinesis}}, and SuperStrength. Predictably, they use these combination of powers to remove the explosive threat and then take Bane down.

A spider-themed assassin.
----
* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The original Black Spider has practically no humor and acts as KnightTemplar, whereas this version is a wisecracking assassin.
* AdaptationalVillainy: While his comics counterpart was also a villain, he was a SerialKillerKiller who only targeted other criminals, and in fact ''wanted'' to be allies with Batman but his willingness to kill put him at odds with the Caped Crusader. Here, he's affiliated with the League of Shadows, and takes part in multiple missions that involve the deaths of innocents, even showing delight as he carries out an assassination on a completely innocent target.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: This version has a ComicBook/SpiderMan-like power set derived from a [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman special suit]]. The original version is a BadassNormal who mainly relies on martial arts, knives, and sometimes guns. While the original did take ''some'' inspiration from Spidey, it's made much more obvious here.
* AgeLift: Confirmed to be 22, whereas his comics counterpart is usually somewhere in his thirties.
* AllThereInTheManual: He's the Eric Needham version of Black Spider [[WordOfGod according to Greg Weisman]].
* BuildingSwing: How he gets around.
* TheBusCameBack: After being subdued in his second appearance, and missing the entirety of ''Invasion'', Black Spider is set to make a reappearance in ''Outsiders''.
* CaptainErsatz: Despite being based on a DC character named Black Spider, he's Spider-Man if Spider-Man was evil. He makes wise cracks during battle, he's voiced by [[WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan Josh Keaton]], and he even refers to swinging through the city as 'web slinging.' Of course, "Evil Spider-Man" was pretty much the premise for the original comic character as well.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He jokes around and even asks if Artemis and Green Arrow would just let him kill Jones and go about his business. He's still an assassin with no qualms about murdering a man in front of his daughter.
* GrapplingHookGun: His webshooters.
* HarmfulToMinors: He had absolutely no qualms about trying to kill Bernell Jones with his daughter watching, despite Jones' pleas to spare her the image. Fortunately, Artemis and Green Arrow [[BigDamnHeroes save Bernell's life]] and incapacitate the assassin.
* InNameOnly: This version of Black Spider is basically an evil Spider-Man as opposed to a direct adaptation of the comics.
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: Traditionally a Batman villain, here he never menaces him but rather the Team.
* ScaryBlackMan: Though it's never shown onscreen, he is Eric Needham who is (traditionally) African-American.
* WallCrawl: Spider powers and what have you.

----
* CyberCyclops: He uses a mechanical cycloptic helmet to both see and fight.
* FrickinLaserBeams: Fires artifical EyeBeams from his helmet.
* HandicappedBadass: Ojo is blind, requiring his helmet to see (which is why he gets to keep it, albeit with a boot to stop him from using the laser, in Belle Reve).
* HisNameIs: A non-fatal example in "Terrors" when Ojo recognizes Superboy and tries multiple times to tell people only to be knocked unconscious by said Superboy.
* MeaningfulName: "Ojo" is Spanish for "eye".

->Voiced by Creator/TaraStrong
The missing princess of Markovia and the younger sister of Prince Gregor and Prince Brion. Two years ago, she was taken and is believed to have become a victim of metahuman trafficking.
----
* AdultFear: Not even a royal family is safe from having their teenage daughter getting kidnapped and becoming a victim of (meta)human trafficking.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: [[spoiler:In "Rescue Op", a mysterious shaded figure helped Black Spider assassinate a man by dropping a large boulder on him. It's suspected to be [[BrainwashedAndCrazy under mental control]]]].
* BaitTheDog: The audience is led to believe that Tara is on the side of good, and has been under mind control to commit horrible deeds, only to be rescued by the Team. [[spoiler:Though, anyone familiar with the comics will tell you that it was likely a ruse. They're right.]]
* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:She's a fully-willing agent for Deathstroke.]]
* DishingOutDirt: Her power, given that this is also Geo-Force's power. and that it seems shared among metahuman relatives (like how Ana and Otto can turn into Plasmus), not to mention that this was her power in the source material (there's also her EvilUncle whose metahuman powers gave him a rocky stone-body).
* TheMole: [[spoiler:Deathstroke's agent for infiltrating the heroes.]]
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In DC canon, Tara Markov is a bastard child and half sister to Brion Markov and Prince Gregor Markov. Here, she is the full sister and a member of the royal family.
* TeensAreMonsters: [[spoiler:15 and no less a villain for it.]]

A supervillain who uses a strength-enhancing steroid known as "Venom" to increase his strength and body mass.
----
* BatmanGambit: A small-scale one, he guides the team into routing out the warehouse for him, then attempts to entomb them in a tunnel when they can't do the job in order to get the League to intervene. He reasons he can clean up once the dust settles.
* BigBadWannabe: Bane's attempts at conning the Team into doing his dirty work fall apart amazingly quickly, and in the end, all he can do is watch and be enraged while his Venom-producing operation goes up in smoke.
* ExpressiveMask: One of the most expressive in the series. At times, it almost looks like face-paint.

!!''Cheshire (Jade Nguyen)''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yjo_cheshire.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KellyHu
Cheshire (real name Jade Nguyen) is a highly-skilled assassin who worked for the League of Shadows. She is the daughter of Sportsmaster and Huntress, and the older sister of Artemis. She is married to Red Arrow, and the mother of Lian Nguyen-Harper.
----
* ActionMom: Kicks ass while carrying her infant daughter.
* AdaptationalHeroism: She's not ''nice'' by a long shot, but she's also a far cry from the genocidal psychopath of the comics. There's also the fact that there seems to be no doubt that she loves her daughter, unlike her comic counterpart.
* AdaptationalModesty: While her ''Young Justice'' attire has a DangerouslyShortSkirt, it's more tamed in comparison to how her outfits in the comics would accentuate her bust and butt.
* AffectionateNickname: Of all people, she's nicknamed "Chesh" by her husband, Roy Harper/Red Arrow.
* AirplaneArms: She tends to run like this.
* AloofBigSister: To Artemis. Although she does care for her little sister in her own way. And as seen in "Satisfaction" she regrets not being that close to her sister.
* AnimalMotifs: Cats. Her alias comes from the famous [[Disney/AliceInWonderland Cheshire Cat]], she had a poster of said cat in her shared childhood room with Artemis, the mask she wears resembles a cat, and she can be as coy and mysterious as a cat.
* AntiVillain: She's a ruthless assassin most of the time but she definitely has people she cares about and has a tragic past that sort of explains her actions. In season 2 and during the time skip she seems to have become a NominalHero.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Cheshire likes to gloat her enemies while using her martial arts.
* AsianBabymama: For Roy, as she is half-Caucasian, half-Vietnamese and introduced their daughter, Lian, to him in "Salvage". Her goal was to help get her husband back on track by showing that his child needs him in her life.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Which we first see in "Usual Suspects" when she saves her sister from an avalanche.
-->'''Cheshire''': [[OhCrap Artemis!!]]
* BabiesEverAfter: Has a daughter, Lian, with Roy/Red Arrow in season 2.
* BadassAndBaby: In the timeskip, Cheshire manages to fight an army, while carrying her infant daughter.
* BadassNormal: Badass enough to go toe to toe with Aqualad... and the rest of the (superpowered) Team... and pretty much anyone while snarking the whole time.
* BattleCouple: With Red Arrow, her husband. They battle the henchman of a Tibetan monastery who were guarding the original Roy Harper...along with their infant daughter.
* BerserkButton: Cheshire '''''really''''' hates her father, [[AbusiveParents Sportsmaster.]] And once commented she has no problem ''killing'' him.
* BigSisterInstinct: Saved Artemis from an avalanche that could've killed her, even though they were on very different side. And Jade swore vengeance on Aqualad when he "killed" Artemis.
* BloodKnight: She enjoys a good fight in general, and even seems to be a bit bloodthirsty - she considered killing Dr. Roquette even after she'd succeeded in downloading the program to stop the nano-tech the Light were using (after forcing Roquette to develop it in the first place) even though it would no longer accomplish anything; she spared her only because her employers might still have use her later (at least, this is what she claims).
* BrainyBrunette: Jade has black hair and is quite the intelligent one. The best example would be how she managed to find a link to Speedy I's location, when no one else could. Not even the ''entire'' Justice League, which included "the world's best detective" Batman.
* BrokenBird: Beneath her playful demeanor is a lot of anger at her abusive father.
* CainAndAbel: {{Subverted|Trope}}. She's a villain (Cain) while her sister is the hero Artemis (Abel) and both have little problem fighting each other. However, they ''do'' love each other as evident in Artemis's relief that Jade wasn't dead from a plane crash and Jade saving her from an avalanche. To further prove this point, it turns out that she named her daughter after Artemis' middle name.
* CharacterDevelopment: In season one, she believed in the "every girl for herself" mentality. In season 2, she appears to have forgo that way of thinking as evident in her diligent care and parenting of Lian, helping her estranged husband from his self-destructive funk, and openly admitting to and regretting not taking better care of Artemis when they were growing up together.
* CheshireCatGrin: Her mask is permanently set in one.
* ColorMotifs: Green. Her outfit is mainly green and the color can often represent mystery, a character trait of hers.
* CoolMask: First appeared in the ''Teen Titans'' [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans animated series]].
* DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou: Inverted for season 3, [[spoiler:Cheshire has returned to being a villain and doesn't spend time with Lian despite obviously loving her very much because she's a villain. However, when she encounters Will in the tenth episode, her body language, facial expressions, and use of words are all implying she has another reason why she cut herself out of their lives, and she might not have returned to villainy of her own volition.]]
* DaddyIssues: Cheshire ''hates'' her father, Sportsmaster. While on missions together, her sense of professionalism is about the only thing that stops her from trying to kill him. A desire for revenge brings them together again in season 2, but she still clearly loathes him.
* DaddysLittleVillain: Odd example; Cheshire is a rare case of a daughter being just as evil and effective as her father, even working in tandem with him... and actively despising him all the while. Though she does have more redeeming traits than her dad and she eventually makes a HazyFeelTurn.
* DarkActionGirl: She's just as skilled a fighter as anyone on the team, only she works for the Light.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Both of her parents were career criminals; however, while Jade had a loving relationship with her mother, she hated her father who was emotionally and verbally abusive to her and her little sister, Artemis. When their mother was sent to prison, the relationship between Jade and her father truly became acrimonious resulting in running away from home at only 13, leaving behind Artemis (who was 9 at the time). And somehow, she ended up in a life of crime.
* DatingCatwoman: She acts like she and Roy have this relationship in the first season, just to mess with Artemis. In season 2, they're married and have a child.
* DeadpanSnarker: She has a dry sense of humor, and treats her opponents like a cat would treat a mouse, allowing herself to be involved in playful banter to a small extent.
* DeliverUsFromEvil: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. She and Roy got married during the time-skip, but she left him and returned to crime ''after'' having a child. Why? So she could better finance the search for the original Speedy, allowing Roy to get off his butt and step up as a parent. [[spoiler:Subverted by season 3 when she just couldn't adjust to a normal life apparently between season 2 and season 3.]]
* TheDogBitesBack: In "Usual Suspects", Jade refuses to help Sportsmaster after he gets trapped by the team, leaving him to be captured.
* EvenBadWomenLoveTheirMamas: {{Implied|Trope}}. Most of their relationship has yet to be fully explored, but there are hints that Jade always held her mother in high esteem. First, Artemis' flashback implies that Paula was a decent parent (despite being a villain back then) and her daughter's {{downplayed|Trope}} MoralityChain, as Jade said she wasn't going to stay in their house since Paula would be in prison for a while. Secondly, Jade has enough trust in Paula to [[spoiler:babysit Lian.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes:
** Results in her first [[PetTheDog genuinely altruistic act]] of the series. As she states:
--->'''Cheshire''': (''after pushing Artemis out of an avalanche'') "Okay fine, we're sisters. I don't actually want you dead."
** As stated under EvenBadWomenLoveTheirMamas, Jade loves her mother.
** In season two, her husband Roy and their daughter Lian. It's implied in their dialogue in "Salvage" that she left the League of Shadows because she fell in love with him; for the latter, Jade is a good mother to her daughter, putting her needs a first priority.
** {{Averted|Trope}} with and ''only'' with her father, Sportsmaster, as she makes statement after statement about how much she truly hates him.
* EvilParentsWantGoodKids: {{Implied|Trope}}. [[spoiler:In Season 3, Jade leaves Lian with Roy, explicitly saying in "Triptych" that [[GiveHimANormalLife Lian is better off without her]].]]
* FauxAffablyEvil: As a villain, she adopted a playful, flirty demeanor, especially with Red Arrow. The development of their relationship shows that her attraction to him was likely genuine.
* FemmeFatale: Flirts with Roy while working against him. Ironically, they end up married with a child.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Foolish Sibling, who works for the League of Shadows to Artemis's Responsible Sibling who works for the good guys.
* FreudianExcuse: Dad was a dick. Mom was an enabler.
* GoodParents: From what we have seen of Jade's interactions with Lian, Jade would do ''anything'' for her daughter.
* GreenAndMean: She wear a nearly green colored attire as Cheshire and is an assassin for the League of Shadows.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: One that shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
* HeroesWantRedheads: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. She does love Red Arrow, but she starts off as a villain, or AntiVillain in season one. In season two, Cheshire is now more of a NominalHero.
* HiddenDepths:
** In ''Young Justice: Legacy'' Jade's below comment may imply she regrets getting into the villain business.
--->'''Artemis''': We know what you want.\\
'''Cheshire''': Please. Half the time I don't even know what I want.[[note]]Might also be a dry commentary on how the Light tends to keep their true objective secret even from their field operatives.[[/note]]
** Despite being a villain who becomes something of a NominalHero in season 2, turns out to be the "responsible, level headed" parent, than her husband, Red Arrow, even though he was a hero long before her.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:Despite leaving Red Arrow between season 2 and season 3, she still loves him but feels like she can't adjust to a normal life and thus it's better for him and Lian to move on.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: {{Zigzagged|Trope}} with Red Arrow. Both are human, but he's technically a clone of another human.
* {{Irony}}: The daughter who hated Lawrence Crock so much she refused to go by his family name (and ran away in an attempt to get out of his life) ended up working alongside him (albeit grudgingly). Adding to it, her sister (who resembles their father while Jade takes after their mother) ended up an indisputably heroic individual.
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** When fighting Artemis, her sister demands to know who she's working for, but Jade replies that while she may know Artemis' secrets, that doesn't mean she'll tell all of hers to Artemis.
** When she returns to her estranged husband, Roy, he rebuffs her attempts to help him since she left him to return to a life of crime. After a coy response to his accusation, Jade tells him that his obsession with finding Speedy was all consuming, which made it hard for anyone to get close to him, herself included.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: It's ''very'' subtle, considering how she is an [[ArrogantKungFuGuy arrogant]], [[DeadpanSnarker sarcastic]] jerk, but it ''is'' there. She only shows her softer side to the people she deeply loves (Artemis, her mother, Red Arrow, and [[spoiler:Lian]]).
* KickTheDog: Depending on how you look at it, it could be this or PetTheDog -- refusing to take Artemis with her when she runs away from home could be seen as either of these. She claims she's doing it because Artemis would slow her down, but it's also possible that she knew she was entering a life of crime and didn't want to drag her sister into it.
* LadyOfWar: She's a very graceful and feminine combatant.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Some creepy, sneaky bell notes.
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: A sibling example: The Dark (works for the League of Shadows) to Artemis's Light (a protege of Green Arrow and member of the Team).
* MagicSkirt: {{Averted|Trope}} in "Targets", where the skirt on her disguise [[RealityEnsues predictably]] shows her underwear when she performs acrobatic flips and kicks.
* TheMaidenNameDebate: {{Implied|Trope}}. When introducing her husband, Roy, to their daughter, Jade states that their daughter's full name is "Lian ''Nguyen''-Harper", implying that Jade kept her last name after marrying Roy.
* MamaBear:She found every lead she could to find the original Roy Harper, so Red Arrow could get out of his funk to help raise their daughter.
* McNinja: All of the stealth, finesse, and deadly skill associated with ninjas. It almost makes you forget that she's [[ButNotTooForeign half-Caucasian, half-Vietnamese]].
* MeaningfulName: "Jade" is often associated with the color green and is a synonym of being mysterious. The former being her main color scheme in her "Cheshire" attire and the latter is a main part of her personality. Not to mention, to be called "jaded" means "cynical", which she definitely is under her playful exterior.
* MeaningfulRename: {{Justified|Trope}}. Due to her father's emotional abuse and the implied good relationship between Jade and Paula, Jade legally changed her surname (her father's last name) from Crock to her mother's maiden name, Nguyen.
* MissingMom: [[spoiler:Has become this to her daughter Lian in season 3.]]
* MixedAncestry: Vietnamese on her mother's side and Caucasian on her father's side.
* MultiEthnicName: Her first name is of Spanish origin and her last name is of Vietnamese origin.
* MysteriousPast: The exact circumstances of Jade entering into a life of crime.
* NiceHat: In her civilian attire, Jade wears a black hat.
* NobleDemon: She actually enjoys the prospect of killing, but she is not without her own sense of duty, following the orders of her masters to the letter, despite how easy it would be for her to ignore them.
* NomDeMom: Due to issues with her dad Jade took her mother's maiden name.
* OdangoHair: As part of her disguise in "Targets".
* OffScreenBreakUp: She and Red Arrow apparently split between season 2 and season 3.
* OffScreenTeleportation: Befitting her namesake, Cheshire disappears in a cloud of smoke in "Infiltrator".
* OlderThanTheyLook: She's 19 (24 after the timeskip), but can pass for 17 or 18.
* {{Omniglot}}: WordOfGod confirms that Jade is able to speak Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and possibly many more.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Whenever Jade drops her usual coy, sarcastic attitude, it means something has happened that is serious enough for her to treat as such, like helping her husband out of his funk or Artemis' "death".
** [[spoiler: While trying to convince Will Harper to move on and that she's never coming back to him ''or'' Lian, Jade appears at her most vulnerable, runs off without slinking into the shadows or disappearing as she is known to do, and even ''cries''. There is definitely more to her departure than she wishes to tell.]]
* PetTheDog:
** Depending on how you look at it, it could be this or KickTheDog -- refusing to take Artemis with her when she runs away from home could be seen as either of these. She claims she's doing it because Artemis would slow her down, but it's also possible that she knew she was entering a life of crime and didn't want to drag her sister into it.
** Saving Artemis's life during a fight in "Usual Suspects."
** In "Salvage", Cheshire called out everyone she knew to help her find a lead on where Speedy I, so that Red Arrow could move on from his HeroicBSOD.
** In "Satisfaction," she expresses regret for not taking better care of Artemis and vows to kill Aqualad to pay for her sins; the same episode reveals that she named her daughter after Artemis' middle name.
** In "Triptych", she frees Shade from her control.
* PoisonedWeapons: She incapacitates Aqualad with jellyfish poison in their first bout (it's not as effective due to his Atlantean heritage, but still causes him trouble).
* PregnantBadass: {{Implied|Trope}}. Cheshire became pregnant with Lian around January 2015 and after her falling out with Roy, went back in the League of Shadows.
* RapunzelHair: It reaches down her waist.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Here, she's a member of the Crock family, but in the comics, she has no connection to them.
* TheRunaway: She ran away from home at the age of 13, because of her father's constant emotional abuse.
* SaiGuy: A female example. Her preferred weapons; enough that Wally (nearly) takes one as a souvenir after a mission was resolved.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Very pointedly walks away when Sportsmaster gets captured by the heroes.
* SheCleansUpNicely: In "Targets". She looks ''very'' nice in her dress.
%% * SheFu
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: {{Implied|Trope}}. Jade does fall in love and marry Red Arrow AKA Roy Harper. And even after he shuts her out during his whole "Speedy recon" thing, she doesn't stop loving him. She even went out of her way to find the clue that ended in Roy finally finding Speedy I.
* SmokeOut: One of Chesire's favourite tricks.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Jade got a lot of her looks from her mother.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Jade is usually aloof and coy towards others; the exception is her father, whom she acts hostile and aggressive to just downright cold when they are together. But to those she has an actual emotional attachment to she's caring and, surprisingly, sweet.
* TermsOfEndangerment: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Her father calls her "Little Girl", but she hates him for how emotionally abusive he was to her and Artemis during their childhood. But, since they work for essentially the same group, she must remain professional.
* TookALevelInKindness: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. In season one, she was a mysterious, coy enemy to Artemis and the team, performing ''one'' genuine PetTheDog moment for her sister. And she's ''still'' the same coy, mysterious, sarcastic rogue in season 2, but shows more vulnerability and PetTheDog moments.
* TranquilFury: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. She is seething with murderous rage over Aqualad "killing" Artemis but usually keeps her voice even sounding and only shouting a few times.
* {{Tsundere}}: In "Complications", after finding out that Artemis is alive, Jade is relieved and begins to do the same witty banter with her sister and claimed she was angry at Artemis' death because she lost a babysitter for Lian.
* UnkemptBeauty: Even without makeup, a pretty dress, or combing her hair, Jade is still ''hot''.
* VillainExitStageLeft: She is a master at this. That's why she calls herself Cheshire.
-->'''Cheshire''' (''to Artemis''): "So like [[Literature/AliceInWonderland the Cheshire Cat]], I'll just disappear."
* WeaponOfChoice: Prefers to use her sais in combat.
* WildHair: Goes with her personality.
* YouKilledMyFather: Swears revenge on Aqualad for her sister's "death". She later discovers Artemis is alive.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Cheshire wears black knee-high boots.

Clayface is a shape-changing supervillain with a monstrous, mud-like appearance.
----
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Hagen hoped to cure his cancer thanks to the Lazarus Pit... but it turned him into a mud monster instead.
* CurbStompBattle: Delivers one ''off-screen'' to the team. Only to be given one himself by Batman.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Had a whole issue of the tie in comic devoted to about how he became Clayface. It's really something since he only appeared for a few seconds in the show itself.

!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KeoneYoung
Sensei is one of the League of Shadows' most senior members. He is also an associate of the Light, and directs the League of Shadows based on the Light's orders.
----
* BadassGrandpa: He shows just how badass he is when he takes on Brion, Forager and Halo all at once with minimal fuss. He even snaps Halo's neck, the only reason she survives at all is because of her powers.
* BeardOfEvil: A high-ranking assassin with a beard.
* CoveredWithScars: Scars on his chest and face.
* DeadpanSnarker: His encounter with Brion is filled with calm snark as he mocks the young prince's temper.
* TheDragon: To Ra's al Ghul.
* EvilMentor: He claims to have trained most members of the League of Shadows. Incidentally, it's why he's not worried to face three young heroes at once. He doesn't need an army, he trained one himself.
* EvilOldFolks: An older man and member of the League of Shadows.

[[folder:Sportsmaster (Lawrence "Crusher" Crock)]]
!!!'''Species''': Human
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/NickChinlund
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sportsmaster.jpg]]
Sportsmaster (real name Lawrence "Crusher" Crock) is a supervillain, a former member of the League of Shadows, and was the personal enforcer for the Light. He is the father of Artemis and Cheshire, and estranged husband of Paula Crock.
----
* AbusiveParents: WordOfGod is that he was verbally and emotionally abusive to his daughters, and according to Cheshire, he used to make them fight each other. He's easily the worst parent seen in the series, period - even Black Manta, a more devoted agent of the Light with greater aspirations (who does more damage overall) shows his son Kaldur'ahm a lot more genuine love than Lawrence displays towards both his daughters combined.
* ActionDad: An evil version -- Sportsmaster is a highly trained martial artist with the ability to use a variety of weapons.
* AdaptationalBadass: His comic book counterpart is about as hokey as one would expect from someone with the name "Sportsmaster", and essentially never shows up unless writers want a joke villain, and he retired in the same story that Artemis was introduced in. But on the show he's a machine-gun toting, explosive javelin throwing, helicopter flying, badass mercenary.
* ArchnemesisDad:
** To Artemis -- she works for the good guys while he's employed to [[BigBad The Light]]. Needless to say, they come to blows often.
** {{Downplayed|Trope}} with Jade -- she ''clearly'' hates him, but since they work for essentially the same organization, she is forced to remain professional with her father.
* BadassNormal:
** He doesn't have any powers, but he gives the metahumans and other superheroes in The Team a hard time.
** That part above, about Sportsmaster being a poor man's Deathstroke? He and Slade go head to head at one point. And ''Crusher gives as good as he gets.'' And while it's not stated in the series if Slade is [[EmpoweredBadassNormal augmented]] like normal, he is actually younger than Crusher!
* BattleCouple: In the past, with Paula -- they were married criminals before her injury.
* CompositeCharacter: He's absorbed the role of Jade Nguyen/Cheshire's (unseen) father (as in the original comics she had no blood ties with the Crock family).
* CoolMask: Vaguely resembles a hockey goalies mask.
* DangerousDeserter: Deserts the Light with plans of killing Black Manta. Woe to any who gets in his way.
* DarkIsEvil: His usual outfit consists of dark clothing.
* TheDragon: Acts as one to the Light as a whole, being one of their most frequently appearing operatives.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Subverted. Swears to kill Black Manta in response for Manta's son killing his daughter... because Sportsmaster thinks it made him look bad.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Evil and a {{Jerkass}} he may be, he takes his status as a professional killer seriously, and no amount of money can repair a soiled reputation. Indeed, he thinks taking a payoff in place of revenge on his daughter's killer makes him look ''worse''.
* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor: "So I hear you're going by '[[ComicBook/GreenArrow Red Arrow]]' now. More like broken arrow!" "Broken arrow" is later revealed to be a trigger phrase programmed into Roy by Cadmus.
* EvilVersusEvil: His war against Black Manta and the Manta family for murdering his daughter, Artemis.
* FingerlessGloves: His gloves have no fingers on them.
* HateSink: Crusher is a self-interested thug, sociopath, abusive parent, and all-around {{jerkass}}.
* HeroicBuild: {{Inverted|Trope}}. He has the build, but none of the heroic qualities.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl: When he and Paula were still together: he was the Huge Guy to Paula's Tiny Girl.
* HyperspaceArsenal: The javelin could be explained as collapsible. His pockets must be BiggerOnTheInside if they can hold that big-ass [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_throw hammer]].
* IKnowMaddenKombat: He's a recurring mercenary and the Light's main enforcer, with lots of weaponised sports equipment.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Some of his many weapons, which include exploding javelins and a discus strong enough to destroy a building.
* {{Jerkass}}: Yeah, when you react to your daughter's death with "This is an insult to my professional reputation, everyone will think I'm weak over this." it stands to reason that you qualify for this label. Bonus points when your other daughter is genuinely grieving.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Calls Deathstroke a "chump" and tells him that the Light will betray him, too. Considering the way the Light betrayed the Reach over the course of the season, he might not have been wrong.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: He's mad about Artemis's death and wants to get back at Black Manta for being responsible, because it makes him look bad by association.
* LackOfEmpathy: He doesn't care about Jade's grief over Artemis' death; he only cares about his damaged reputation.
* ManipulativeBastard: Towards his own daughter, no less.
* MeaningfulName: "Lawrence" in French and Latin means "crowned with laurel". A laurel is a wreath used to crown the winners of an athletic contest. And Lawrence's code name, "Sportsmaster" just alludes to his mastery of every type of athletic competition.
* MultiMeleeMaster: He uses multiple sports-themed weapons in combat, all to great effect.
* MultiRangedMaster: His various weapons (javelins, foils, shot-puts, discuses) enable him to be dangerous at any range.
* NotSoDifferent: He argues this is the case with him and Cheshire.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He's sixty by season two, but barely looks half that.
* {{Omniglot}}: WordOfGod states that Sportsmaster is fluent in Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and possibly many more.
* PapaWolf: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. He's not angry about Artemis being killed. He's angry that she was killed ''without his permission'' because it soils his reputation. Chesire tells him he's full of crap and when he finds out that Artemis IS alive, he calls off the mission and leaves his reputation still soiled. It's mainly because he knows that Artemis is working to bring down the organization that screwed him over.
* ParentsKnowTheirChildren: Zigzagged. He doesn't recognize Artemis' presence even inside her own mind, but he ''does'' recognize the fighting techniques he taught her.
* PetTheDog: He covers for Artemis after learning she's really alive, though less for her than to allow her to continue undermining Black Manta.
* RevengeByProxy: He's only pissed that Artemis was killed without his permission since it damaged his reputation, so he leaves Aqualad to Jade, while he gets Black Manta.
* ScrewTheMoneyIHaveRules: If someone damages his professional reputation, no amount of money is going to stop him from taking them down.
* SlaveToPR: His VillainCred seems to be the only thing he cares about. He'll even take on the Light to keep people from thinking he's an easy mark.
* TheSociopath: Enjoys hurting people, distinct LackOfEmpathy, self-centered, and manipulative.
* UnholyMatrimony: In the past, with his wife as they were both married criminals before Paula's injury.
* UtilityBelt: Wears one to hold his weapons.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: At one point knocks down Aqualad with a clothesline move.

* GrapplingHookGun: Uses it to make his getaway.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Ra's, when he's [[spoiler: ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice by Black Beetle]], Ubu charges through Artemis and Lagoon Boy to grab him and escape. His appearance in the comics also has him dragging away [[spoiler: his master's body.]]

!!''Talia al Ghul''
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_talia.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
Ra's al Ghul's daughter. Talia had previously only appeared in the tie-in comics but officially appeared in the show in the sixth episode of the third season.
----
* AbsoluteCleavage: Her first on-screen appearance in the show has her displaying this trait.
* AgeLift: Talia in the comics is many decades older than the 30-something woman that she actually looks, due to having access to the Lazarus Pit. In this continuity, Talia was born in 1984 and thus actually is a woman in her 30s as of 2018.
* ArtEvolution: Talia previously made appearances in the tie-in comics set during Season 1 and 2. When she finally makes her appearance in the show proper during Season 3 her design has been altered so that she more closely resembles the character's appearances in the ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse''.
* DatingCatwoman: What she was to Batman. In the tie-in comics, he rejects her when she can't choose between joining him or staying with her father. [[spoiler: As of season 3, they probably have a kid together.]]
* WhamShot: Her first appearance in the show has her walk out of the shadows [[spoiler:carrying a baby -- most likely Damian Wayne, her biological son with Batman -- in her arms]].
* WomanScorned: Briefly dated Matt Hagen when she realises that a relationship with Batman is impossible. When she realises that he only used her so he could get to use the Lazarus Pit to treat his cancer, she locks him inside, transforming him into Clayface.

Talia's newborn, fathered during the TimeSkip between ''Invasion'' and ''Outsiders''.
----
* AgeLift: [[spoiler: Given the heavy implication of who this is- Damian Wayne - then he's at least a decade younger than he is in the comics amongst his peers. Damian in the comics first appeared when he was 10 years old, and during that time Nightwing was an adult in at least his mid-20s and Tim Drake was in his mid-late teens. He even appears to be slightly younger than Jonathan Kent who appears to be more a toddler, when in the comics he was 3 years older than he]].

One of Ra's al Ghul's new mysterious minions.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: In the comics, he's known as Red Hood, but here, he's known descriptively as the Red-Hooded Ninja (in the credits, anyways).
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:He can't remember his past, but after meeting Dick/Nightwing (again), he starts to remember him.]]
* MysteriousPast: No one outside of Ra's and his people know who he is. [[spoiler:He's an amnesiac Jason Todd, brought back from the dead.]]
* TheQuietOne: He doesn't talk much. [[spoiler:When he does, it's slow and slurred. Given that he has amnesia, it can be assumed this is a result of brain damage.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: Anyone familiar with the comics ([[ItWasHisSled or has at least heard about him]]) would know that his true identity is [[spoiler:Jason Todd, the second Robin, having become Red Hood after Ra's revived him from the dead using the Lazarus Pits.]]
* WhamShot: In case you had any doubts about who he is, when he takes off his hood, he has the same signature hairstyle as [[spoiler:Jason Todd in the comics, or if you were paying attention, in his hologram photo as Robin II back in Season 2]].

----
* AffirmativeActionLegacy: The Light's previous two enforcers, Sportsmaster and Deathstroke, were white men, while she is an Asian-American woman.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: She seems much more stoic and less of a BloodKnight than her comic self.
* BadassNormal: While seemingly without metahuman powers, she is able to kill [[spoiler: Ocean Master]] in seconds. Though in the comics, Shiva and Cassandra regularly push the boundaries of not being meta-humans.

!!!'''Species''': Human
[[quoteright:333:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/black_spider_young_justice.jpg]]
->Voiced by Creator/JoshKeaton
A spider-themed assassin.
----
* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The original Black Spider has practically no humor and acts as KnightTemplar, whereas this version is a wisecracking assassin.
* AdaptationalVillainy: While his comics counterpart was also a villain, he was a SerialKillerKiller who only targeted other criminals, and in fact ''wanted'' to be allies with Batman but his willingness to kill put him at odds with the Caped Crusader. Here, he's affiliated with the League of Shadows, and takes part in multiple missions that involve the deaths of innocents, even showing delight as he carries out an assassination on a completely innocent target.
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: This version has a ComicBook/SpiderMan-like power set derived from a [[ClothesMakeTheSuperman special suit]]. The original version is a BadassNormal who mainly relies on martial arts, knives, and sometimes guns. While the original did take ''some'' inspiration from Spidey, it's made much more obvious here.
* AgeLift: Confirmed to be 22, whereas his comics counterpart is usually somewhere in his thirties.
* AllThereInTheManual: He's the Eric Needham version of Black Spider [[WordOfGod according to Greg Weisman]].
* BuildingSwing: How he gets around.
* TheBusCameBack: After being subdued in his second appearance, and missing the entirety of ''Invasion'', Black Spider is set to make a reappearance in ''Outsiders''.
* CaptainErsatz: Despite being based on a DC character named Black Spider, he's Spider-Man if Spider-Man was evil. He makes wise cracks during battle, he's voiced by [[WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan Josh Keaton]], and he even refers to swinging through the city as 'web slinging.' Of course, "Evil Spider-Man" was pretty much the premise for the original comic character as well.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He jokes around and even asks if Artemis and Green Arrow would just let him kill Jones and go about his business. He's still an assassin with no qualms about murdering a man in front of his daughter.
* GrapplingHookGun: His webshooters.
* HarmfulToMinors: He had absolutely no qualms about trying to kill Bernell Jones with his daughter watching, despite Jones' pleas to spare her the image. Fortunately, Artemis and Green Arrow [[BigDamnHeroes save Bernell's life]] and incapacitate the assassin.
* InNameOnly: This version of Black Spider is basically an evil Spider-Man as opposed to a direct adaptation of the comics.
* RoguesGalleryTransplant: Traditionally a Batman villain, here he never menaces him but rather the Team.
* ScaryBlackMan: Though it's never shown onscreen, he is Eric Needham who is (traditionally) African-American.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: [[spoiler:In "Rescue Op", a mysterious shaded figure helped Black Spider assassinate a man by dropping a large boulder on him. It's suspected to be [[BrainwashedAndCrazy under mental control]]]].
* BaitTheDog: The audience is led to believe that Tara is on the side of good, and has been under mind control to commit horrible deeds, only to be rescued by the Team. [[spoiler:Though, anyone familiar with the comics will tell you that it was likely a ruse. They're right.]]
* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:She's a fully-willing agent for Deathstroke.]]
* DishingOutDirt: Her power, given that this is also Geo-Force's power. and that it seems shared among metahuman relatives (like how Ana and Otto can turn into Plasmus), not to mention that this was her power in the source material (there's also her EvilUncle whose metahuman powers gave him a rocky stone-body).
* TheMole: [[spoiler:Deathstroke's agent for infiltrating the heroes.]]
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In DC canon, Tara Markov is a bastard child and half sister to Brion Markov and Prince Gregor Markov. Here, she is the full sister and a member of the royal family.

* BigBadWannabe: Bane's attempts at conning the Team into doing his dirty work fall apart amazingly quickly, and in the end, all he can do is watch and be enraged while his Venom-producing operation goes up in smoke.
* ExpressiveMask: One of the most expressive in the series. At times, it almost looks like face-paint.

%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KellyHu
Cheshire (real name Jade Nguyen) is a highly-skilled assassin who worked for the League of Shadows. She is the daughter of Sportsmaster and Huntress, and the older sister of Artemis. She is married to Red Arrow, and the mother of Lian Nguyen-Harper.
----
* ActionMom: Kicks ass while carrying her infant daughter.
* AdaptationalHeroism: She's not ''nice'' by a long shot, but she's also a far cry from the genocidal psychopath of the comics. There's also the fact that there seems to be no doubt that she loves her daughter, unlike her comic counterpart.
* AdaptationalModesty: While her ''Young Justice'' attire has a DangerouslyShortSkirt, it's more tamed in comparison to how her outfits in the comics would accentuate her bust and butt.
* AffectionateNickname: Of all people, she's nicknamed "Chesh" by her husband, Roy Harper/Red Arrow.
* AirplaneArms: She tends to run like this.
* AloofBigSister: To Artemis. Although she does care for her little sister in her own way. And as seen in "Satisfaction" she regrets not being that close to her sister.
* AnimalMotifs: Cats. Her alias comes from the famous [[Disney/AliceInWonderland Cheshire Cat]], she had a poster of said cat in her shared childhood room with Artemis, the mask she wears resembles a cat, and she can be as coy and mysterious as a cat.
* AntiVillain: She's a ruthless assassin most of the time but she definitely has people she cares about and has a tragic past that sort of explains her actions. In season 2 and during the time skip she seems to have become a NominalHero.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Cheshire likes to gloat her enemies while using her martial arts.
* AsianBabymama: For Roy, as she is half-Caucasian, half-Vietnamese and introduced their daughter, Lian, to him in "Salvage". Her goal was to help get her husband back on track by showing that his child needs him in her life.
* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: Which we first see in "Usual Suspects" when she saves her sister from an avalanche.
-->'''Cheshire''': [[OhCrap Artemis!!]]
* BabiesEverAfter: Has a daughter, Lian, with Roy/Red Arrow in season 2.
* BadassAndBaby: In the timeskip, Cheshire manages to fight an army, while carrying her infant daughter.
* BadassNormal: Badass enough to go toe to toe with Aqualad... and the rest of the (superpowered) Team... and pretty much anyone while snarking the whole time.
* BattleCouple: With Red Arrow, her husband. They battle the henchman of a Tibetan monastery who were guarding the original Roy Harper...along with their infant daughter.
* BerserkButton: Cheshire '''''really''''' hates her father, [[AbusiveParents Sportsmaster.]] And once commented she has no problem ''killing'' him.
* BigSisterInstinct: Saved Artemis from an avalanche that could've killed her, even though they were on very different side. And Jade swore vengeance on Aqualad when he "killed" Artemis.
* BloodKnight: She enjoys a good fight in general, and even seems to be a bit bloodthirsty - she considered killing Dr. Roquette even after she'd succeeded in downloading the program to stop the nano-tech the Light were using (after forcing Roquette to develop it in the first place) even though it would no longer accomplish anything; she spared her only because her employers might still have use her later (at least, this is what she claims).
* BrainyBrunette: Jade has black hair and is quite the intelligent one. The best example would be how she managed to find a link to Speedy I's location, when no one else could. Not even the ''entire'' Justice League, which included "the world's best detective" Batman.
* BrokenBird: Beneath her playful demeanor is a lot of anger at her abusive father.
* CainAndAbel: {{Subverted|Trope}}. She's a villain (Cain) while her sister is the hero Artemis (Abel) and both have little problem fighting each other. However, they ''do'' love each other as evident in Artemis's relief that Jade wasn't dead from a plane crash and Jade saving her from an avalanche. To further prove this point, it turns out that she named her daughter after Artemis' middle name.
* CharacterDevelopment: In season one, she believed in the "every girl for herself" mentality. In season 2, she appears to have forgo that way of thinking as evident in her diligent care and parenting of Lian, helping her estranged husband from his self-destructive funk, and openly admitting to and regretting not taking better care of Artemis when they were growing up together.
* CheshireCatGrin: Her mask is permanently set in one.
* ColorMotifs: Green. Her outfit is mainly green and the color can often represent mystery, a character trait of hers.
* CoolMask: First appeared in the ''Teen Titans'' [[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans animated series]].
* DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou: Inverted for season 3, [[spoiler:Cheshire has returned to being a villain and doesn't spend time with Lian despite obviously loving her very much because she's a villain. However, when she encounters Will in the tenth episode, her body language, facial expressions, and use of words are all implying she has another reason why she cut herself out of their lives, and she might not have returned to villainy of her own volition.]]
* DaddyIssues: Cheshire ''hates'' her father, Sportsmaster. While on missions together, her sense of professionalism is about the only thing that stops her from trying to kill him. A desire for revenge brings them together again in season 2, but she still clearly loathes him.
* DaddysLittleVillain: Odd example; Cheshire is a rare case of a daughter being just as evil and effective as her father, even working in tandem with him... and actively despising him all the while. Though she does have more redeeming traits than her dad and she eventually makes a HazyFeelTurn.
* DarkActionGirl: She's just as skilled a fighter as anyone on the team, only she works for the Light.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Both of her parents were career criminals; however, while Jade had a loving relationship with her mother, she hated her father who was emotionally and verbally abusive to her and her little sister, Artemis. When their mother was sent to prison, the relationship between Jade and her father truly became acrimonious resulting in running away from home at only 13, leaving behind Artemis (who was 9 at the time). And somehow, she ended up in a life of crime.
* DatingCatwoman: She acts like she and Roy have this relationship in the first season, just to mess with Artemis. In season 2, they're married and have a child.
* DeadpanSnarker: She has a dry sense of humor, and treats her opponents like a cat would treat a mouse, allowing herself to be involved in playful banter to a small extent.
* DeliverUsFromEvil: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. She and Roy got married during the time-skip, but she left him and returned to crime ''after'' having a child. Why? So she could better finance the search for the original Speedy, allowing Roy to get off his butt and step up as a parent. [[spoiler:Subverted by season 3 when she just couldn't adjust to a normal life apparently between season 2 and season 3.]]
* TheDogBitesBack: In "Usual Suspects", Jade refuses to help Sportsmaster after he gets trapped by the team, leaving him to be captured.
* EvenBadWomenLoveTheirMamas: {{Implied|Trope}}. Most of their relationship has yet to be fully explored, but there are hints that Jade always held her mother in high esteem. First, Artemis' flashback implies that Paula was a decent parent (despite being a villain back then) and her daughter's {{downplayed|Trope}} MoralityChain, as Jade said she wasn't going to stay in their house since Paula would be in prison for a while. Secondly, Jade has enough trust in Paula to [[spoiler:babysit Lian.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes:
** Results in her first [[PetTheDog genuinely altruistic act]] of the series. As she states:
--->'''Cheshire''': (''after pushing Artemis out of an avalanche'') "Okay fine, we're sisters. I don't actually want you dead."
** As stated under EvenBadWomenLoveTheirMamas, Jade loves her mother.
** In season two, her husband Roy and their daughter Lian. It's implied in their dialogue in "Salvage" that she left the League of Shadows because she fell in love with him; for the latter, Jade is a good mother to her daughter, putting her needs a first priority.
** {{Averted|Trope}} with and ''only'' with her father, Sportsmaster, as she makes statement after statement about how much she truly hates him.
* EvilParentsWantGoodKids: {{Implied|Trope}}. [[spoiler:In Season 3, Jade leaves Lian with Roy, explicitly saying in "Triptych" that [[GiveHimANormalLife Lian is better off without her]].]]
* FauxAffablyEvil: As a villain, she adopted a playful, flirty demeanor, especially with Red Arrow. The development of their relationship shows that her attraction to him was likely genuine.
* FemmeFatale: Flirts with Roy while working against him. Ironically, they end up married with a child.
* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: The Foolish Sibling, who works for the League of Shadows to Artemis's Responsible Sibling who works for the good guys.
* FreudianExcuse: Dad was a dick. Mom was an enabler.
* GoodParents: From what we have seen of Jade's interactions with Lian, Jade would do ''anything'' for her daughter.
* GreenAndMean: She wear a nearly green colored attire as Cheshire and is an assassin for the League of Shadows.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: One that shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
* HeroesWantRedheads: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. She does love Red Arrow, but she starts off as a villain, or AntiVillain in season one. In season two, Cheshire is now more of a NominalHero.
* HiddenDepths:
** In ''Young Justice: Legacy'' Jade's below comment may imply she regrets getting into the villain business.
--->'''Artemis''': We know what you want.\\
'''Cheshire''': Please. Half the time I don't even know what I want.[[note]]Might also be a dry commentary on how the Light tends to keep their true objective secret even from their field operatives.[[/note]]
** Despite being a villain who becomes something of a NominalHero in season 2, turns out to be the "responsible, level headed" parent, than her husband, Red Arrow, even though he was a hero long before her.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:Despite leaving Red Arrow between season 2 and season 3, she still loves him but feels like she can't adjust to a normal life and thus it's better for him and Lian to move on.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: {{Zigzagged|Trope}} with Red Arrow. Both are human, but he's technically a clone of another human.
* {{Irony}}: The daughter who hated Lawrence Crock so much she refused to go by his family name (and ran away in an attempt to get out of his life) ended up working alongside him (albeit grudgingly). Adding to it, her sister (who resembles their father while Jade takes after their mother) ended up an indisputably heroic individual.
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** When fighting Artemis, her sister demands to know who she's working for, but Jade replies that while she may know Artemis' secrets, that doesn't mean she'll tell all of hers to Artemis.
** When she returns to her estranged husband, Roy, he rebuffs her attempts to help him since she left him to return to a life of crime. After a coy response to his accusation, Jade tells him that his obsession with finding Speedy was all consuming, which made it hard for anyone to get close to him, herself included.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: It's ''very'' subtle, considering how she is an [[ArrogantKungFuGuy arrogant]], [[DeadpanSnarker sarcastic]] jerk, but it ''is'' there. She only shows her softer side to the people she deeply loves (Artemis, her mother, Red Arrow, and [[spoiler:Lian]]).
* KickTheDog: Depending on how you look at it, it could be this or PetTheDog -- refusing to take Artemis with her when she runs away from home could be seen as either of these. She claims she's doing it because Artemis would slow her down, but it's also possible that she knew she was entering a life of crime and didn't want to drag her sister into it.
* LadyOfWar: She's a very graceful and feminine combatant.
* {{Leitmotif}}: Some creepy, sneaky bell notes.
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: A sibling example: The Dark (works for the League of Shadows) to Artemis's Light (a protege of Green Arrow and member of the Team).
* MagicSkirt: {{Averted|Trope}} in "Targets", where the skirt on her disguise [[RealityEnsues predictably]] shows her underwear when she performs acrobatic flips and kicks.
* TheMaidenNameDebate: {{Implied|Trope}}. When introducing her husband, Roy, to their daughter, Jade states that their daughter's full name is "Lian ''Nguyen''-Harper", implying that Jade kept her last name after marrying Roy.
* MamaBear:She found every lead she could to find the original Roy Harper, so Red Arrow could get out of his funk to help raise their daughter.
* McNinja: All of the stealth, finesse, and deadly skill associated with ninjas. It almost makes you forget that she's [[ButNotTooForeign half-Caucasian, half-Vietnamese]].
* MeaningfulName: "Jade" is often associated with the color green and is a synonym of being mysterious. The former being her main color scheme in her "Cheshire" attire and the latter is a main part of her personality. Not to mention, to be called "jaded" means "cynical", which she definitely is under her playful exterior.
* MeaningfulRename: {{Justified|Trope}}. Due to her father's emotional abuse and the implied good relationship between Jade and Paula, Jade legally changed her surname (her father's last name) from Crock to her mother's maiden name, Nguyen.
* MissingMom: [[spoiler:Has become this to her daughter Lian in season 3.]]
* MixedAncestry: Vietnamese on her mother's side and Caucasian on her father's side.
* MultiEthnicName: Her first name is of Spanish origin and her last name is of Vietnamese origin.
* MysteriousPast: The exact circumstances of Jade entering into a life of crime.
* NiceHat: In her civilian attire, Jade wears a black hat.
* NobleDemon: She actually enjoys the prospect of killing, but she is not without her own sense of duty, following the orders of her masters to the letter, despite how easy it would be for her to ignore them.
* NomDeMom: Due to issues with her dad Jade took her mother's maiden name.
* OdangoHair: As part of her disguise in "Targets".
* OffScreenBreakUp: She and Red Arrow apparently split between season 2 and season 3.
* OffScreenTeleportation: Befitting her namesake, Cheshire disappears in a cloud of smoke in "Infiltrator".
* OlderThanTheyLook: She's 19 (24 after the timeskip), but can pass for 17 or 18.
* {{Omniglot}}: WordOfGod confirms that Jade is able to speak Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and possibly many more.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Whenever Jade drops her usual coy, sarcastic attitude, it means something has happened that is serious enough for her to treat as such, like helping her husband out of his funk or Artemis' "death".
** [[spoiler: While trying to convince Will Harper to move on and that she's never coming back to him ''or'' Lian, Jade appears at her most vulnerable, runs off without slinking into the shadows or disappearing as she is known to do, and even ''cries''. There is definitely more to her departure than she wishes to tell.]]
* PetTheDog:
** Depending on how you look at it, it could be this or KickTheDog -- refusing to take Artemis with her when she runs away from home could be seen as either of these. She claims she's doing it because Artemis would slow her down, but it's also possible that she knew she was entering a life of crime and didn't want to drag her sister into it.
** Saving Artemis's life during a fight in "Usual Suspects."
** In "Salvage", Cheshire called out everyone she knew to help her find a lead on where Speedy I, so that Red Arrow could move on from his HeroicBSOD.
** In "Satisfaction," she expresses regret for not taking better care of Artemis and vows to kill Aqualad to pay for her sins; the same episode reveals that she named her daughter after Artemis' middle name.
** In "Triptych", she frees Shade from her control.
* PoisonedWeapons: She incapacitates Aqualad with jellyfish poison in their first bout (it's not as effective due to his Atlantean heritage, but still causes him trouble).
* PregnantBadass: {{Implied|Trope}}. Cheshire became pregnant with Lian around January 2015 and after her falling out with Roy, went back in the League of Shadows.
* RapunzelHair: It reaches down her waist.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Here, she's a member of the Crock family, but in the comics, she has no connection to them.
* TheRunaway: She ran away from home at the age of 13, because of her father's constant emotional abuse.
* SaiGuy: A female example. Her preferred weapons; enough that Wally (nearly) takes one as a souvenir after a mission was resolved.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Very pointedly walks away when Sportsmaster gets captured by the heroes.
* SheCleansUpNicely: In "Targets". She looks ''very'' nice in her dress.
%% * SheFu
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: {{Implied|Trope}}. Jade does fall in love and marry Red Arrow AKA Roy Harper. And even after he shuts her out during his whole "Speedy recon" thing, she doesn't stop loving him. She even went out of her way to find the clue that ended in Roy finally finding Speedy I.
* SmokeOut: One of Chesire's favourite tricks.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Jade got a lot of her looks from her mother.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Jade is usually aloof and coy towards others; the exception is her father, whom she acts hostile and aggressive to just downright cold when they are together. But to those she has an actual emotional attachment to she's caring and, surprisingly, sweet.
* TermsOfEndangerment: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Her father calls her "Little Girl", but she hates him for how emotionally abusive he was to her and Artemis during their childhood. But, since they work for essentially the same group, she must remain professional.
* TookALevelInKindness: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. In season one, she was a mysterious, coy enemy to Artemis and the team, performing ''one'' genuine PetTheDog moment for her sister. And she's ''still'' the same coy, mysterious, sarcastic rogue in season 2, but shows more vulnerability and PetTheDog moments.
* TranquilFury: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. She is seething with murderous rage over Aqualad "killing" Artemis but usually keeps her voice even sounding and only shouting a few times.
* {{Tsundere}}: In "Complications", after finding out that Artemis is alive, Jade is relieved and begins to do the same witty banter with her sister and claimed she was angry at Artemis' death because she lost a babysitter for Lian.
* UnkemptBeauty: Even without makeup, a pretty dress, or combing her hair, Jade is still ''hot''.
* VillainExitStageLeft: She is a master at this. That's why she calls herself Cheshire.
-->'''Cheshire''' (''to Artemis''): "So like [[Literature/AliceInWonderland the Cheshire Cat]], I'll just disappear."
* WeaponOfChoice: Prefers to use her sais in combat.
* WildHair: Goes with her personality.
* YouKilledMyFather: Swears revenge on Aqualad for her sister's "death". She later discovers Artemis is alive.
* ZettaiRyouiki: Cheshire wears black knee-high boots.

Clayface is a shape-changing supervillain with a monstrous, mud-like appearance.
----
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Hagen hoped to cure his cancer thanks to the Lazarus Pit... but it turned him into a mud monster instead.
* CurbStompBattle: Delivers one ''off-screen'' to the team. Only to be given one himself by Batman.

!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KeoneYoung
Sensei is one of the League of Shadows' most senior members. He is also an associate of the Light, and directs the League of Shadows based on the Light's orders.
----
* BadassGrandpa: He shows just how badass he is when he takes on Brion, Forager and Halo all at once with minimal fuss. He even snaps Halo's neck, the only reason she survives at all is because of her powers.
* BeardOfEvil: A high-ranking assassin with a beard.
* CoveredWithScars: Scars on his chest and face.
* DeadpanSnarker: His encounter with Brion is filled with calm snark as he mocks the young prince's temper.
* TheDragon: To Ra's al Ghul.
* EvilMentor: He claims to have trained most members of the League of Shadows. Incidentally, it's why he's not worried to face three young heroes at once. He doesn't need an army, he trained one himself.
* EvilOldFolks: An older man and member of the League of Shadows.
* FeelNoPain: He walks barefoot over magma and when Halo asks if it hurts, Sensei merely replies with, "Pain is an illusion."
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Has an evil one over his left eye. Judging from the clouded iris, the injury seems to have blinded that eye.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: Shown to wield one in issue #12 of the tie-in comic.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Ra's al Ghul. Even after Ra's [[spoiler:leaves the Light and loses control of the League of Shadows]], the Sensei stays with him, and won't let anyone treat his master with disrespect.
* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: Despite "The Resurrection of Ra's al Ghul" revealing that the Sensei was Ra's's father, [[WordOfGod Weisman]] [[http://www.s8.org/gargoyles/askgreg/search.php?qid=13773 has said]] that isn't the case on the show.

[[folder:Sportsmaster (Lawrence "Crusher" Crock)]]
!!!'''Species''': Human
!!!'''Voiced by''': Creator/NickChinlund
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sportsmaster.jpg]]
Sportsmaster (real name Lawrence "Crusher" Crock) is a supervillain, a former member of the League of Shadows, and was the personal enforcer for the Light. He is the father of Artemis and Cheshire, and estranged husband of Paula Crock.
----
* AbusiveParents: WordOfGod is that he was verbally and emotionally abusive to his daughters, and according to Cheshire, he used to make them fight each other. He's easily the worst parent seen in the series, period - even Black Manta, a more devoted agent of the Light with greater aspirations (who does more damage overall) shows his son Kaldur'ahm a lot more genuine love than Lawrence displays towards both his daughters combined.
* ActionDad: An evil version -- Sportsmaster is a highly trained martial artist with the ability to use a variety of weapons.
* AdaptationalBadass: His comic book counterpart is about as hokey as one would expect from someone with the name "Sportsmaster", and essentially never shows up unless writers want a joke villain, and he retired in the same story that Artemis was introduced in. But on the show he's a machine-gun toting, explosive javelin throwing, helicopter flying, badass mercenary.
* ArchnemesisDad:
** To Artemis -- she works for the good guys while he's employed to [[BigBad The Light]]. Needless to say, they come to blows often.
** {{Downplayed|Trope}} with Jade -- she ''clearly'' hates him, but since they work for essentially the same organization, she is forced to remain professional with her father.
* BadassNormal:
** He doesn't have any powers, but he gives the metahumans and other superheroes in The Team a hard time.
** That part above, about Sportsmaster being a poor man's Deathstroke? He and Slade go head to head at one point. And ''Crusher gives as good as he gets.'' And while it's not stated in the series if Slade is [[EmpoweredBadassNormal augmented]] like normal, he is actually younger than Crusher!
* BattleCouple: In the past, with Paula -- they were married criminals before her injury.
* CompositeCharacter: He's absorbed the role of Jade Nguyen/Cheshire's (unseen) father (as in the original comics she had no blood ties with the Crock family).
* CoolMask: Vaguely resembles a hockey goalies mask.
* DangerousDeserter: Deserts the Light with plans of killing Black Manta. Woe to any who gets in his way.
* DarkIsEvil: His usual outfit consists of dark clothing.
* TheDragon: Acts as one to the Light as a whole, being one of their most frequently appearing operatives.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Subverted. Swears to kill Black Manta in response for Manta's son killing his daughter... because Sportsmaster thinks it made him look bad.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Evil and a {{Jerkass}} he may be, he takes his status as a professional killer seriously, and no amount of money can repair a soiled reputation. Indeed, he thinks taking a payoff in place of revenge on his daughter's killer makes him look ''worse''.
* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor: "So I hear you're going by '[[ComicBook/GreenArrow Red Arrow]]' now. More like broken arrow!" "Broken arrow" is later revealed to be a trigger phrase programmed into Roy by Cadmus.
* EvilVersusEvil: His war against Black Manta and the Manta family for murdering his daughter, Artemis.
* FingerlessGloves: His gloves have no fingers on them.
* HateSink: Crusher is a self-interested thug, sociopath, abusive parent, and all-around {{jerkass}}.
* HeroicBuild: {{Inverted|Trope}}. He has the build, but none of the heroic qualities.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl: When he and Paula were still together: he was the Huge Guy to Paula's Tiny Girl.
* HyperspaceArsenal: The javelin could be explained as collapsible. His pockets must be BiggerOnTheInside if they can hold that big-ass [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammer_throw hammer]].
* IKnowMaddenKombat: He's a recurring mercenary and the Light's main enforcer, with lots of weaponised sports equipment.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Some of his many weapons, which include exploding javelins and a discus strong enough to destroy a building.
* {{Jerkass}}: Yeah, when you react to your daughter's death with "This is an insult to my professional reputation, everyone will think I'm weak over this." it stands to reason that you qualify for this label. Bonus points when your other daughter is genuinely grieving.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Calls Deathstroke a "chump" and tells him that the Light will betray him, too. Considering the way the Light betrayed the Reach over the course of the season, he might not have been wrong.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: He's mad about Artemis's death and wants to get back at Black Manta for being responsible, because it makes him look bad by association.
* LackOfEmpathy: He doesn't care about Jade's grief over Artemis' death; he only cares about his damaged reputation.
* ManipulativeBastard: Towards his own daughter, no less.
* MeaningfulName: "Lawrence" in French and Latin means "crowned with laurel". A laurel is a wreath used to crown the winners of an athletic contest. And Lawrence's code name, "Sportsmaster" just alludes to his mastery of every type of athletic competition.
* MultiMeleeMaster: He uses multiple sports-themed weapons in combat, all to great effect.
* MultiRangedMaster: His various weapons (javelins, foils, shot-puts, discuses) enable him to be dangerous at any range.
* NotSoDifferent: He argues this is the case with him and Cheshire.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He's sixty by season two, but barely looks half that.
* {{Omniglot}}: WordOfGod states that Sportsmaster is fluent in Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and possibly many more.
* PapaWolf: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. He's not angry about Artemis being killed. He's angry that she was killed ''without his permission'' because it soils his reputation. Chesire tells him he's full of crap and when he finds out that Artemis IS alive, he calls off the mission and leaves his reputation still soiled. It's mainly because he knows that Artemis is working to bring down the organization that screwed him over.
* ParentsKnowTheirChildren: Zigzagged. He doesn't recognize Artemis' presence even inside her own mind, but he ''does'' recognize the fighting techniques he taught her.
* PetTheDog: He covers for Artemis after learning she's really alive, though less for her than to allow her to continue undermining Black Manta.
* RevengeByProxy: He's only pissed that Artemis was killed without his permission since it damaged his reputation, so he leaves Aqualad to Jade, while he gets Black Manta.
* ScrewTheMoneyIHaveRules: If someone damages his professional reputation, no amount of money is going to stop him from taking them down.
* SlaveToPR: His VillainCred seems to be the only thing he cares about. He'll even take on the Light to keep people from thinking he's an easy mark.
* TheSociopath: Enjoys hurting people, distinct LackOfEmpathy, self-centered, and manipulative.
* UnholyMatrimony: In the past, with his wife as they were both married criminals before Paula's injury.
* UtilityBelt: Wears one to hold his weapons.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: At one point knocks down Aqualad with a clothesline move.

* AmbiguouslyBrown: His skin seems lighter than his appearance in other animated adaptations.
* TheBrute: Ra's al Ghul's bodyguard and muscle.
* GrapplingHookGun: Uses it to make his getaway.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Ra's, when he's [[spoiler: ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice by Black Beetle]], Ubu charges through Artemis and Lagoon Boy to grab him and escape. His appearance in the comics also has him dragging away [[spoiler: his master's body.]]

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yj_talia.png]]
%%[[caption-width-right:300:some caption text]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human
Ra's al Ghul's daughter. Talia had previously only appeared in the tie-in comics but officially appeared in the show in the sixth episode of the third season.
----
* AbsoluteCleavage: Her first on-screen appearance in the show has her displaying this trait.
* AgeLift: Talia in the comics is many decades older than the 30-something woman that she actually looks, due to having access to the Lazarus Pit. In this continuity, Talia was born in 1984 and thus actually is a woman in her 30s as of 2018.
* ArtEvolution: Talia previously made appearances in the tie-in comics set during Season 1 and 2. When she finally makes her appearance in the show proper during Season 3 her design has been altered so that she more closely resembles the character's appearances in the ''WesternAnimation/DCAnimatedMovieUniverse''.
* DatingCatwoman: What she was to Batman. In the tie-in comics, he rejects her when she can't choose between joining him or staying with her father. [[spoiler: As of season 3, they probably have a kid together.]]
* WhamShot: Her first appearance in the show has her walk out of the shadows [[spoiler:carrying a baby -- most likely Damian Wayne, her biological son with Batman -- in her arms]].
* WomanScorned: Briefly dated Matt Hagen when she realises that a relationship with Batman is impossible. When she realises that he only used her so he could get to use the Lazarus Pit to treat his cancer, she locks him inside, transforming him into Clayface.

!!!'''Species:''' Human
Talia's newborn, fathered during the TimeSkip between ''Invasion'' and ''Outsiders''.
----
* AgeLift: [[spoiler: Given the heavy implication of who this is- Damian Wayne - then he's at least a decade younger than he is in the comics amongst his peers. Damian in the comics first appeared when he was 10 years old, and during that time Nightwing was an adult in at least his mid-20s and Tim Drake was in his mid-late teens. He even appears to be slightly younger than Jonathan Kent who appears to be more a toddler, when in the comics he was 3 years older than he]].

!!!'''Species:''' Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JoshKeaton
One of Ra's al Ghul's new mysterious minions.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: In the comics, he's known as Red Hood, but here, he's known descriptively as the Red-Hooded Ninja (in the credits, anyways).
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:He can't remember his past, but after meeting Dick/Nightwing (again), he starts to remember him.]]
* MysteriousPast: No one outside of Ra's and his people know who he is. [[spoiler:He's an amnesiac Jason Todd, brought back from the dead.]]
* TheQuietOne: He doesn't talk much. [[spoiler:When he does, it's slow and slurred. Given that he has amnesia, it can be assumed this is a result of brain damage.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: Anyone familiar with the comics ([[ItWasHisSled or has at least heard about him]]) would know that his true identity is [[spoiler:Jason Todd, the second Robin, having become Red Hood after Ra's revived him from the dead using the Lazarus Pits.]]
* WhamShot: In case you had any doubts about who he is, when he takes off his hood, he has the same signature hairstyle as [[spoiler:Jason Todd in the comics, or if you were paying attention, in his hologram photo as Robin II back in Season 2]].
