* TheQuietOne: After settling in post-rescue, she doesn't talk much, if at all, which Dr. Jeice chalks up to her trauma from being kidnapped for two years. [[spoiler:Which just makes it easier for her to slip into The Team dynamic unnoticed and quietly transmit information to Deathstroke.]]

* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:She's a fully-willing agent for Deathstroke.]]

* 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.

* EvilOldFolks: An older man and member of the League of Shadows.

* AmbiguouslyEvil: At first, it was implied that Terra was serving the League of Shadows as a {{mind control}}led {{slave|Mooks}}, even committing assassinations for them. [[spoiler:However, well after the heroes rescue her and remove the MindControlDevice attached to her neck, she later contacts Deathstroke with a text message by her own free will, revealing that she is a (voluntary) double agent.]]
* BaitTheDog: The audience is led to believe that Terra is on the side of good, and has been under mind control to commit horrible deeds, only to be rescued by the Outsiders. [[spoiler:Though, anyone familiar with the comics will tell you that it was likely a ruse. They're right.]]

* 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 Outsiders. [[spoiler:Though, anyone familiar with the comics will tell you that it was likely a ruse. They're right.]]

[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yjo_blackspider.png]]
!!!'''Species:''' Human

A spider-themed assassin.

* TheBusCameBack: After being subdued in his second appearance, and missing the entirety of ''Invasion'', Black Spider is set to make a reappearance in ''Outsiders''.

!!!'''Species''': Human
!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DannyTrejo ("Drop Zone"), Eric Lopez (''Legacy'')

A supervillain who uses a strength-enhancing steroid known as "Venom" to increase his strength and body mass.

* AdaptedOut: His history as a nemesis of Batman is gone for this version of the character. WordOfGod confirms that they have never met prior to Season 1 and 2. Their brief confrontation during Season 3 appears to be the first meeting between the two.
* AdaptationalWimp: Downplayed example. Bane in the comics is one of the smartest and most formidable members of Batman's RoguesGallery. 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.
* 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.
* CaughtMonologuing: What leads to his defeat in ''Drop Zone''. Bane chooses to partake in some EvilGloating to the Team, explaining how he manipulated them to ensure he would take back his island, intending to blow them up with explosives, visibly holding a detonator. 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.
* ExpressiveMask: One of the most expressive in the series. At times, it almost looks like face-paint.
* GeniusBruiser: One of the few times he's portrayed as this outside of the comics.
* GratuitousSpanish: Refers to the Team as "such clever ''ninos''" (Spanish for "children").
* GrowingMusclesSequence: Whenever he injects himself with Venom.
* GutturalGrowler: Bane's voice makes him sound like he gargles with thumbtacks.
* PsychicStatic: Recites Spanish and football scores in his head to block out Miss Martian's mind reading abilities.
* SleevesAreForWimps: Wears a black undershirt.
* SuperSerum: The Venom drug, which gives the user immense strength and muscle.
* SuperStrength: When he's on Venom.
* TookALevelInBadass: Whilst not quite to the level of his comic counterpart, Season 3 shows him having abandoned his Venom addiction, and Bane puts up a serious fight against Batman that the Dark Knight is forced to make a retreat from.
* VillainTeamUp: Provides security for Luthor on his island in exchange for Apokolyptian technology in "Usual Suspects".
* TheWorfEffect: Gets curbstomped by Mammoth.

* PetTheDog: He legitimately praises [[spoiler:Terra]] for her efforts in killing a target who had nearly slipped away from Black Spider. He even goes so far as to say that all the bosses (presumably the Light) would be proud.

* 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.

* 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".

* PetTheDog:

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.

* PetTheDog: He covers for Artemis after learning she's really alive, though less for her than to allow her to continue undermining Black Manta.

* 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]].

* WhamShot: [[spoiler: The baby's appearance in Talia's arms is a big one for those familiar with the comics, especially given who the baby is most likely to be.]]

* 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]].

* 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.

* MasterSwordswoman: Capable of decapitating an Atlantean with a single sword stroke, and she outright states she’s a superior sword wielder to Katana, who not only has to DualWield to keep pace, but eventually switches opponents with Metamorpho before they and Batman simply retreat. Katana is a MasterSwordsman hero, and she does better against ''Deathstroke'' than she does against Shiva.

* [[MasterSwordsman Master Swordswoman]]: Capable of decapitating an Atlantean with a single sword stroke, and she outright states she’s a superior sword wilder to Katana, who not only has to DuelWield to keep pace, but eventually switches opponents with Metamorpho before they and Batman simply retreat. Katana is a MasterSwordsman hero, and she does better against ‘’Deathstroke’’ than she does against Shiva.

* [[ArrogantKungFuGuy Arrogant Kung Fu Lady]]: While calm and controlled at all times, the sheer confidence and pride with which she holds herself screams this. She very specifically wants to beat Katana in a sword fight to demonstrate her superiority as a fighter.

* LadyOfWar: She carries herself a polite demeanor, fights with a fluid combat style, and is reputed as a martial arts grandmaster and the most dangerous woman alive. She invokes this when training members of the League of Shadows.

* 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.]]

* AdaptationPersonalityChange: She seems much more stoic and less of a BloodKnight than her comic self.

* LadyOfWar: Fights in a fluid combat style. As she puts it herself, there is a strength in grace and serenity.
