Power of Ether is a Sci-FI/fantasy webcomic, with some drama and comedy thrown in for good measure. The comic is about 5 young adults, who find themselves stuck on a ship headed to a continent full of people with superpowers. Thing is, these super-powered people, or “Gifted” as they are known in-universe, were all forcibly removed from their homeland several generations ago, so it’s safe to assume that they won’t be very welcoming of the protagonists. Presumably.

Deleted Five Man Band example - poor indentation, zero-context. Part of TRS Wick Cleaning - cannot expand due to unfamiliarity.


* FiveManBand:
** TheLeader: Dax. So far he’s made almost all the decisions.
** TheLancer: Cassandra. Usually whenever Dax says something she’ll find a reason to argue with it.
** TheSmartGuy: Blake (Who is actually a girl), while she often doesn't talk much, is clearly the most knowledgeable in the group, though probably second to Dax who knows a lot abut history and technology.
** TheBigGuy: Isaac.
** TheChick: Olivia. Granted, there’s 3 women in the main cast, but she fills the role the best.

!! Power of Ether contains examples of:

* ArtEvolution: Compare the first comics to the most recent.
* BerserkButton: Don’t call Cassandra “Sugar.”
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler: Isaac and Cassandra’s parents were drug addicts, often neglecting their children, or taking out their anger on them.]]
* EmotionlessGirl: Downplayed with Blake. She generally has a neutral expression, though not always.
* FieryRedhead: Cassandra really has a temper sometimes. See berserk button above.
* FiveManBand:
** TheLeader: Dax. So far he’s made almost all the decisions.
** TheLancer: Cassandra. Usually whenever Dax says something she’ll find a reason to argue with it.
** TheSmartGuy: Blake (Who is actually a girl) apparently knows how to patch up a snake bite. Otherwise is the most logical and stable of the group.

** TheChick: Olivia. Granted, there’s 3 women in the main cast, but she fills the role the best.
* GenkiGirl: Olivia has her moments.
* HalfIdenticalTwins: Cassandra and Isaac. Downplayed in that they have quite different physical appearances.
* InTheHood: Blake wears a full-body hooded cloak.
* NervesOfSteel: Cassandra: What do you do when some stranger has teleported behind you and pulled a knife to your neck? Insult him and beat him up.
* SpikyHair: Dax’s hair almost literally looks like a brown buzz-saw.
* TankTopTomboy: Cassandra’s normal clothes are a tank-top and track pants. Though so is Isaac’s…
* VillainTeleportation: Alfie can teleport himself and at least one other person. Though it apparently has a cooldown, as he doesn’t use it to escape.
