| 10 | |
| 11 | April O'Neil is an ally and big sister/motherly-figure to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. |
| 12 | ---- |
| 13 | * AdaptationalBadass: The Aprils of the original comics, the Fred Wolf cartoon and the 90s live-action movies were generally damsels in distress and had little use in combat. Over the course of the series, this April becomes a good fighter in her own right after some training from Splinter. |
| 14 | * AdaptationDyeJob: April's hair is now unnaturally red and given a purplish tone. |
| 15 | * AllGirlsWantBadBoys: April is shown to have an attraction to Casey Jones, though their contrasting personalities often make them bicker. |
| 16 | * BadassBookworm: A highly intelligent scientist ''and'' a certified Badass. |
| 17 | * BareMidriffsAreFeminine: She's the Turtles' primary female ally who is primarily shown wearing a purple crop top. |
| 18 | * BattleCouple: With Casey, eventually. |
| 19 | * BigSisterInstinct: She loves and cares for the turtles that she's willing to risk her life to defend them. |
| 20 | * CoolBigSis: She acts as this to the turtles. |
| 21 | * {{Leitmotif}}: A quiet, low-key theme that generally plays when she’s in her antique shop. |
| 22 | * GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: She is mostly very feminine and scientific and wears both a [[BareMidriffsAreFeminine mifdriff revealing outfit]] and a [[PrimAndProperBun clean and held back bun]]. Later becomes both a good fighter in her own right and efficient in jujitsu. She even becomes a full-blown JunglePrincess at one time and is able to take out the local giant hornets. |
| 23 | * LettingHerHairDown: Inversion: If April's hair isn't in her trademark bun the situation generally isn't good. |
| 24 | * MissionControl: This version of April makes much more use of her scientific expertise and she often uses her computer skills to aid the Turtles. The most prominent example of this is in the "Return to New York" three-parter, where the Turtles and Splinter assault Shredder's tower, all the while April communicates with them and gives the layout of the building. |
| 25 | * MythologyGag: In the episode "Secret Origins", April poses as a TV reporter to infiltrate a building, wearing a [[IconicOutfit very familiar yellow jumpsuit]]; when she tries to "interview" the soldier supervising the blockade around the Utrom building (it's complicated), she explains that she's from "Channel 9 News *broken tag on jumpsuit flips down* er, Channel ''6'' News". Later, once the smoke clears, Leonardo says April would make a good reporter, to which she replied [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 "In another lifetime, maybe."]] |
| 26 | * NiceGirl: She can be very headstrong and sassy, but she's mostly very sweet, kindhearted, caring and levelheaded to everyone she loves. |
| 27 | * {{Ninja}}: In-training from Season 3 and onward when she starts getting lessons from Splinter. |
| 28 | * NotSoAboveItAll: Most notably in "April's Artifact" where she gets ''waaay'' into the JunglePrincess role and "The Christmas Aliens" where she sticks a spoon on her nose and grins stupidly. |
| 29 | %%* OfficialCouple: With Casey at the end of "The Christmas Aliens". |
| 30 | * PrimAndProperBun: She normally wears her hair like that, as she's very levelheaded and sometimes strict, though she also as a few silly moments (in "April's Artifact" where she gets ''waaay'' into the JunglePrincess role and "The Christmas Aliens" where she sticks a spoon on her nose and grins stupidly). |
| 31 | * TookALevelInBadass: In season 2's "April's Artifact", April and the Turtles are transported to an alien jungle planet. There, she becomes a full-blown JunglePrincess and is able to take out the local giant hornets. At the start of season 3, she also begins to train with Splinter. |
| 32 | * UnfazedEveryman: After her initial scream and/or faint upon meeting the turtles, she becomes this. |

| 36 | !!Casey Jones |
| 37 | [[quoteright:295:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/casey.jpg]] |
| 38 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarcThompson [[labelnote:Foreign [=VAs=]]]Thierry Janssen (FR), Creator/AndersOjebo (SV)[[/labelnote]] |
| 39 | |
| 40 | Casey Jones is a hockey-masked vigilante who fights crime at night. |
| 41 | ---- |
| 42 | * AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: He was given a tragic backstory (See DarkAndTroubledPast below) that his original [[ComicBook/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesMirage Mirage comics counterpart lacked]] (it's especially jarring considering Eastman and Laird originally conceived him as someone who became a vigilante because he watched way too many "bad cop" shows instead of the usual "someone killed his family" origin). This backstory, however, was [[RetCanon adapted in the comics later onwards]]. |
| 43 | * BadassNormal: The only member of the team who doesn’t have any mutant powers or abnormal origins. Ninjitsu also doesn't rub off on him the way it does on April. |
| 44 | * BashBrothers: With Raph. |
| 45 | * BattleCouple: With April. |
| 46 | * BatterUp: Often wields a bat as well as his signature hockey stick. |
| 47 | * BerserkButton: He really hates the Purple Dragons. Especially their leader Hun. |
| 48 | * TheBerserker: Initially since he's the one to throw himself into a fight before anyone. |
| 49 | * BigBrotherInstinct: He will step headfirst into battle whenever the turtles are in trouble. |
| 50 | * BigDamnHeroes: Gets to do this occasionally. One stand out moment is him saving the Turtles, Splinter and April when they were outnumbered and surrounded by the Foot Clan. By barging into April's store with his motorbike |
| 51 | * BoisterousBruiser: Often on the frontline and loves it. |
| 52 | * BrooklynRage: Has a Brooklyn accent and is easy to anger. |
| 53 | * ButtMonkey: Is often on the receiving end of a lot of jokes. |
| 54 | * CarFu: The Motorcycle variant, when coming to the rescue of the Turtles, he makes good use of his bike when fending off the Elite Foot. |
| 55 | * CharacterCatchphrase: It's revealed that the young turtles were teaching him all about martial arts and fighting (although they never found out) and each took turns to teach him what they knew. The cry comes from when Mikey was training him and told him to say "Gorogoro-sama!" (translation: Lord Thunder). But since Casey couldn't pronounce it correctly, he made his famous phrase "Goongala!". |
| 56 | * CombatPragmatist: Even the bad guys admit that Casey just plain ''fights dirty''. |
| 57 | * CoolBigBro: He acts as this to the turtles. |
| 58 | * CoolBike: Owns a pretty sweet Harley-Davidson style motorcycle that he understandably is rather proud of. |
| 59 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Casey's hatred of crime is rooted in this incarnation in his childhood. While Casey was still a kid, his father Arnold Casey Jones, Sr. refused to pay protection money to the Purple Dragons. His father's shop was burned down as a result, and a teenage Hun threatened Casey to tell his father to pay up next time. Despite being threatened not to, Casey's dad subsequently went to the police, but with no success; it's implied that the Purple Dragons later killed him for trying to turn them in. |
| 60 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: His child self in his debut episode looks like [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/tmnt/images/c/c3/MeetCasey-222.JPG a smaller version of his adult self]] complete with long hair. In ''The Lesson'', [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/tmnt/images/d/d7/S3E13-Lesson-227.png he has a different hairstyle]] and that [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/tmnt/images/e/ed/S4E10-DragRis-356.png same design is reused]] for the flashback sequence in ''Dragons Rising'', which seems to be set at least a day or two earlier than the flashback from ''Meet Casey Jones''. |
| 61 | * EmbarrassingFirstName: Arnold. Casey is his middle name in this continuity. |
| 62 | * FireForgedFriends: His friendship with Raphael consistently begins this way, eventually leading to him befriending the other turtles and essentially being an honorary brother to them. |
| 63 | * ForgottenFirstMeeting: It is revealed in “The Lesson” that Casey actually first met the Turtles when they were young and they tried to help him but since the Turtles were disguised and he went by Arnold then neither are aware of it. |
| 64 | * GoodIsNotNice: In his debut episode. He gets better though. |
| 65 | * HeroicBuild: He is built like a bodybuilder and is introduced while doing bicep curls with a dumbbell [[MythologyGag like in the comics]]. |
| 66 | * HotBlooded: Casey is mostly a very boisterous and energetic person with a large amount of gusto, but there are times where he can get so angry that even Raphael has been disturbed by it on occasion with his intense aggression against those he aims it towards. |
| 67 | * {{Hunk}}: He is a tall, [[HeroicBuild muscular]] and [[MrFanservice handsome man]] who almost always wears [[SleevesAreForWimps sleeveless clothes]]. |
| 68 | * IKnowMaddenKombat: Casey uses sports equipment as his main weapon. |
| 69 | * ImprobableWeaponUser: Hockey sticks, baseball bats, golf clubs, croquet mallets, cricket bats... |
| 70 | ** The last being really amazing because you gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket! |
| 71 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: Pairs with the NoSocialSkills below. He just says the first thing that comes to mind and is confused when people, mostly April, are upset. |
| 72 | * {{Leitmotif}}: An aggressive guitar riff matching his demeanor. |
| 73 | * MaskPower: When going into action, Casey usually wears an unique old-school hockey mask. |
| 74 | * MiddleNameBasis: First name is Arnold but goes by his middle name Casey. His mother still calls him Arnold though. |
| 75 | * MrFanservice: His default outfit is a sleeveless muscle shirt that shows off his physique, and his abs are occasionally visible through his outfit. He is also TallDarkAndHandsome. |
| 76 | * NoSocialSkills: Due to his only focus being to get stronger and take down bad guys most of his life, he's not very well-versed in manners or even basic etiquette. A few of the first interactions with the turtles, and especially April, have him getting on everyone's nerves for never taking a hint or watching what he says. |
| 77 | %%* OfficialCouple: With April at the end of "The Christmas Aliens". |
| 78 | * OvershadowedByAwesome: He straddles the line between BadassNormal and this depending on the situation. Being an important friend and ally to the Turtles, Casey kicks all sorts of ass when he and his buddies are leaping from roof to roof, beating up Purple Dragons, Foot Soldiers, and your average Mooks. But when it comes down to battling against more powerful enemies such as Karai, Agent Bishop, the Triceratons, General Khan, and the Shredder, it's made painfully clear that Casey isn't really in the same league as the Turtles and the bigger, nastier villains. Usually, he is taken out quite early on while the Turtles are able to battle the {{Giant Mook}}s, [[TheDragon Dragons]], and {{Big Bad}}s on more even terms. |
| 79 | * TookALevelInBadass: |
| 80 | ** Casey undergoes a bit of this in ''Back to the Sewer'' when training under [[TheDragon Master Khan]] (he manages to sneak attack and take down all four of the Turtles in this episode) but brainwashing is involved and the show doesn't give any strong indication of whether he retained his newfound fighting skills afterwards. |
| 81 | ** However, Casey still applies to this trope as it was revealed that when he was young, Casey lacked the confidence he shows as an adult, until the Turtles trained him to be assertive. |
| 82 | * VigilanteMan: As he grew older, Casey became a vigilante and started hunting down crooks — particularly Purple Dragons — in the streets, until he met Raph. |

| 93 | * BackForTheFinale: After not appearing since "Prodigal Son" from season 4, she returns for the finale of "Back to the Sewers", where she attends April and Casey's wedding. |
| 94 | * CanonImmigrant: Was originally created for this series, but a version of her was adapted in the IDW comics. |
| 95 | * GirlishPigtails: Though she's tomboy. |
| 96 | * FantasticallyIndifferent: Her reaction to seeing four mutant turtles? Calling them off the charts. |
| 97 | * HeelFaceTurn: Initially she wanted to become a Purple Dragon, but after seeing how bad they beat up and capture Casey, she goes to the Turtles and asks them for help in order to rescue him. |
| 98 | * HeelRealization: Seeing Casey getting hurt and locked up by Hun show Angel the error of her ways |
| 99 | * ItsAllMyFault: She blames herself for Casey getting captured by the Purple Dragons. |
| 100 | * PoliceAreUseless: In "The Darkness Within", Angel tried getting help from the police but they refused to look for her brother. {{Justified}}, since they needed to use the resources to rebuild after the Triceraton invasion. |
| 101 | * ParentalSubstitute: She and her brother live with their grandmother. |
| 102 | * {{Tomboy}}: She initially wanted to join the Purple Dragons and could take two thugs in a fight (for awhile at least). |

| 115 | * CloudCuckooLander: Played with. The other homeless people see his "theories" as this, though in reality his theories are some, who are actually shared with the scientific community and a few of them are actually believed to be true. |
| 116 | * DefiantToTheEnd: In "Garbageman", he refuses to kneel before the titular villain. |
| 117 | * EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: He's only known as "The Professor" and we never discover his true name. |
| 118 | * IChooseToStay: During "The Garbageman", him and his homeless friends are captured by the titular villain and are brought to his island, where they are forced to work as slaves. Despite this, after the Garbageman and his thugs' defeat, the Professor and the other vagrants decide to remain on the island, as it has both good food and shelter. |
| 119 | * KingOfTheHomeless: After Garbageman's defeat, he becomes a good and wise leader to the homeless and gives a valuable aesop on recycling. |
| 120 | * TheProfessor: He's obviously one. Becomes a bit confusing in "Worlds Collide" part 1, where he interacts with Donatello and Fugitoid. |

| 131 | |
| 132 | A gifted artist who's a tenant of April's. He found a mysterious crystal and, after attaching it to his pencil, anything he drew could come to life. |
| 133 | ---- |
| 134 | * AdaptationalOriginConnection: The "magic crystal" Kirby found is the same kind the Turtles encountered in the underground city from the "Notes from the Underground" three-parter. |
| 135 | * ArtInitiatesLife: After attaching the magical crystal to his pencil, anything he drew came to life. Though after a while his drawings will disappear. Some of them are the warriors and the Black Horde. |
| 136 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: This applies to both Kirby and some of his human drawings. |
| 137 | * AnotherDimension: It's eventually revealed that his drawings after disappearing are teleported to an alternate world, where his warriors and the Black Horde are at war. |
| 138 | * HeroicSacrifice: When the portal connecting the other dimension to the real world starts shrinking, he orders Don to go first and even helps him pass through the rapidly shrinking portal. The portal closes leaving him trapped in the other dimension and all he manages to do is send a note to Don. |
| 139 | * NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He's an obvious homage to Creator/JackKirby. |
| 140 | * OneShotCharacter: He only appears in one episode. |
| 141 | * PowerCrystal: He found one in a coal pile. When its attached to his pencil, whatever he draws comes to live. |
| 142 | * PurpleIsPowerful: His magical crystal is purple and can bring his drawings to life. |
| 143 | * SeenItAll: He is initially taken aback by Don's sudden appearance, believing him to be the owner of the warp crystal. But after Don clarifies he means no harm, he is not very surprised that a big Turtle is talking to him. |
| 144 | -->'''Don:''' Say, doesn't my appearance freak you out a little?\ |
| 145 | '''Kirby:''' Fella, since my sketches started leaping off the page, I've seen freakier, believe me. |

| 158 | ---- |
| 159 | * AcidAttack: Her main form of attack. |
| 160 | * CensorSteam: When Quarry is unfrozen and reverted back to her human form in "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", there's some convenient steam that covers her naughty bits. |
| 161 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: If you look closely at Quarry's design, you may see that they have long hair. This foreshadows [[{{Reveal}} the reveal]] that he, or she, is in fact a girl. |
| 162 | ** In "Notes from the Underground, Part 2", Quarry only remembers that their name started with an S. In "Return to the Underground", his name is revealed to be Sydney. |
| 163 | * GivenNameReveal: In "Return to the Underground", Quarry is permanently cured and tells the Turtles her name: it's Sydney. |
| 164 | * HorrifyingTheHorror: Just saying "horrified" will be an understatement. In "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", Quarry ''is absolutely terrified'' of [[NamesToRunAwayFrom Necropolis]] and the entity that lurks within it. |
| 165 | * IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: In "Return to the Underground", the Turtles find that she has gone feral. Mikey tries this on her, [[SubvertedTrope but it doesn't work]]. |
| 166 | * ItCanThink: While the other mutants are also quite intelligent[[note]]...until they go feral[[/note]], special mention goes to Quarry, since she understands how to use the underground crystals and how to use the Foot's technology. |
| 167 | * NakedOnRevival: When Quarry seems to be cured at the end of "Notes from the Underground, Part 3", he, or in fact she, doesn't have any clothes. |

| 184 | * AmbiguousSituation: Are they [[TheSpeechless not capable of speech due to their mutation]], or [[TheVoiceless are they capable but refuse to]]? |
| 185 | * DishingOutDirt: Sort of. Stonebiter has the ability to dig, but he doesn't have any powers over the earth. |
| 186 | * GeniusBruiser: Downplayed, as while they can pretty much use brute force when fighting the Turtles, the two have been shown to use tacticts against them: Stonebiter caused an earthquake that nearly engulfed the Turtles, while Razorfist pushed a giant boulder against them. |
| 187 | * MeaningfulName: Razorfist has giant pincers, while Stonebiter can dig through the earth. |
| 188 | * MythologyGag: Stonebiter's appearance is very similar to Complete Carnage, a minor villain from the Mirage comics. |
| 189 | * PowerPincers: Razorfist has these. |
| 190 | * RedEyesTakeWarning: Stonebiter has red eyes, but he isn't evil. |
| 191 | * ScaryScorpions: Razorfist resembles a giant mutated scorpion. |
| 192 | * SuddenlySpeaking: While completely silent in the show, Razorfist says one line in a cutscene of the video game. He doesn't say anything else before or after. |
| 193 | * TemporarilyAVillain: In "Return to the Underground", they go feral alongside all the other mutants until they are cured. |
| 194 | * TheWorfEffect: They get hit pretty hard with this. In "Notes from the Underground, Part 1" and the first half of Part 2, they go head-to-head with the Turtles. Then in the second half of Part 2 and all of Part 3, they are scared from the other mutants and are easily overpowered by them. It serves to establish that the other mutants are much more powerful and fierce than they are. |

| 201 | |
| 202 | An ally to the turtles with a scientific mind like Donatello and is often referred to as "LH". |
| 203 | ---- |
| 204 | * AbortedArc: His desire to return to the Utroms as he noted in his debut episode is never brought up again since the Turtles lack the ability to contact the Utroms. Even when they do meet them again, Leatherhead is never depicted actively trying to go back with them as he originally wanted. |
| 205 | * AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Downplayed. He humbly admits that Donnie is his superior in regards to intellect, as well as conceding that Don did the majority of the work on the outbreak virus. He ends up being the Someone Better to ''Stockman'' of all people. Once he has access to Bishop's resources, he quickly develops a cure for the outbreak virus whereas Stockman was getting nowhere. |
| 206 | * BackForTheFinale: After not appearing in seasons 5 and 6, he returns in season 7's "Wedding Bells and Bytes", where he attends April and Casey's wedding. |
| 207 | * TheBerserker: After being experimented on and tortured by Bishop, this side of him will come out and you better hope you're not aligned with the Shredder or Bishop in any way. |
| 208 | * BerserkButton: Several: |
| 209 | ** The Shredder. He's the one who is hunting down the Utroms, who raised him. When Leatherhead got his hands on him, he was ''completely'' destroyed. Also, do NOT say that you either work or have worked with the Shredder. Stockman learned that the hard way. |
| 210 | ** Do NOT threaten to kill his friends. Marlin learned that the hard way. |
| 211 | ** As he was tortured and experimented by Bishop, Leatherhead would lash out and attack him at every opportunity he gets. |
| 212 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Is for the most part a nice, easy going guy. Just don't hurt his friends, you especially don't want to be around him when he loses his temper. |
| 213 | * BigDamnHeroes: At one point, the Turtles are beaten up by Bishop's goons and are about to get gunned by them. Then Leatherhead shows up behind them. [[ScreamDiscretionShot We hear slashes and screaming.]] |
| 214 | * TheBusCameBack: After not appearing since season 2's "What a Croc", he returns in season 3's "Worlds Collide" part 2. |
| 215 | * ButNowIMustGo: He stays with the Turtles in early Season 3 following being freed from Bishop, but eventually decides that his temper is too volatile for him to continue living with them. He establishes a base in a nearby abandoned subway tunnel. |
| 216 | * EarlyBirdCameo: He made a brief cameo in "Secret Origins" part 2, where he was spotted by a soldier, before making his proper debut in "What a Croc". |
| 217 | * EmotionalBruiser: This version was quick to show off just how tender-hearted he is in addition to how tough he is. |
| 218 | * GeniusBruiser: Here he is not only intelligent but also well versed in various technical and scientific fields and therefore the Turtles and their friends (including Professor Honeycutt) find not only his giant strength but also his great intelligent helpful. |
| 219 | * HonoraryTrueCompanion: He's very close to the Turtles and Splinter but is prevented from living with them or joining their team full time due to the PTSD he suffered under Bishop which makes him prone to moments of serious instability. But whenever he's really needed, he'll always be there to lend them a helping hand. |
| 220 | * InterspeciesAdoption: Is an alligator raised by Utroms. |
| 221 | * LoadBearingHero: At the end of "What a Croc", his lair begins to collapse. He holds the collapsing celling, giving the Turtles just enough time to escape with their lives, seemingly dying in the process. In later episodes, it's revealed he survived. |
| 222 | * ManlyTears: He is shown to openly weep on occasion when under significant duress... or when he attends Casey and April's wedding. |
| 223 | * {{Metamorphosis}}: From alligator to humanoid alligator. |
| 224 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Leatherhead says this almost word for word when he attacks Michelangelo in a fit of uncontrollable rage, leaving him unconscious and fearing him badly hurt/dead. |
| 225 | * NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: In "Exodus, Part I", Leatherhead finally comes face to face with the Shredder. Enough said. |
| 226 | * SewerGator: He was a pet alligator that was flushed into the sewers before he was mutated. |
| 227 | * SixthRanger: To the Turtles. He's often called in as extra support in their battles against Shredder and Bishop. |
| 228 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: In "Good Genes" he nearly kills Stockman due to Bishop lying about having a cure for Donnie's mutation, but Splinter is able to convince him to stand down and work with Stockman for Donnie's sake. Leatherhead accepts and actually finds the real cure for the outbreak. |
| 229 | * TruerToTheText: His [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 previous series' counterpart]] was notably [[AdaptationalVillainy a villain]] who antagonized anyone he saw as weaker. His 1987 incarnation was also not particularly bright. Starting with this incarnation, Leatherhead would only antagonize the Turtles due to misunderstandings and quickly became their friend akin to the original comics. This Leatherhead is also easily as smart as (or even smarter than) his Mirage comics counterpart, to the point that he rivals Donatello in terms of intellect (though he later confesses to being inferior to Don's smarts). |
| 230 | * UnexplainedRecovery: Hun and Leatherhead both appear to [[DisneyVillainDeath fall to their doom]] in ''"Exodus, Part 1"''. They both appear later with no explanation of how they survived or what happened to them immediately after the episode. Granted, their fall was indoors and it is rather hard to determine how far they fell (and unlike the Gyoji, it is rather doubtful that the writers intended this to be their death). |
| 231 | * UnskilledButStrong: He lacks any skill in unarmed combat, but he's sheer size and power means that for the most part he doesn't need it. |
| 232 | * WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He doesn't appear in Season 5, even with the threat of the Tengu Shredder and the fact that the Turtles summon almost ''every'' recurring character they can think of. He's later absent from all of Season 7 except the finale, despite the fact his technological savvy could've been of great use in recovering Splinter's data. |
| 233 | * YouCantGoHomeAgain: Leatherhead initially yearns to rejoin the Utroms, not aware they left Earth and their base of operations was destroyed. |

| 266 | ---- |
| 267 | * AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In the comics her power was super strength, while here it's technopathy. |
| 268 | * AdaptationalVillainy: In the original comic Dr. Dome was the one who sought out misplaced vengeance against the Justice Force, while she was the one to snap him out of it. Here it's the other way around. |

| 274 | * OlderThanHeLooks: She appears to be in her mid twenties but based on Stainless Steel's comments about having carried around an old Justice Force Communciator for "almost forty years", she's presumably in her late thirties (unless Steel was counting the time when the team had been together before Ananda was born in that tally). |

| 289 | |
| 290 | An unnamed cop who had his career placed in jeopardy when he started digging up too much dirt on [[CorruptCorporateExecutive Ruffington]], who he was investigating. Unable to stand the corruption, he took on the identity of a masked vigilante to get through the red tape. He eventually joins the Justice Force in the fifth season. |
| 291 | ---- |

| 296 | * DarkIsNotEvil: Wears a costume, that is entirely black with exception of his hands and feet, which are red. He definitely has a sinister look, but he's on the good guy's side. |
| 297 | * EnemyMine: In Season 5 he joins the Turtles’ army of heroes and villains banding together against the Tengu Shredder, and notably Ruffington is among Hun’s allies present. |
| 298 | * TheFaceless: Any time he's seen without his mask his face is always obscured in shadows, so we never properly see what he looks like. |
| 299 | * GoodIsNotSoft: He's on the good guys' side, but don't let that fool you. He's gonna use extreme measures to take out his opponents, even ''guns'' at one point.[[note]] In "Nobody's Fool", he nearly gunned down ''Leo and Mikey'', until he recognized them. In the same episode, he later picks up what is essentially a ''Triceraton bazooka''.[[/note]] In his next appearances, however, he stopped using them. |
| 300 | * MeaningfulName: After Ruffington ruined his career and personal life, he lost everything. In other words, he became a "nobody". |
| 301 | ** MeaningfulRename: During his debut episode, he largely calls himself Nobody. However, after he foils Ruffington's weapons deal and leaves him to the authorities, the arms dealer asks him who he truly is. Nobody replies "somebody". In later appearances, he still goes by the "Nobody" alias, though. |
| 302 | * NoNameGiven: Aside from his superhero alias, his actual name is never revealed. |
| 303 | * RoaringRampageOfRevenge: His motivation in "Nobody's fool". After his career was put in jeopardy, he became a costumed vigilante, who would do anything in order to stop Ruffington and his illegal smuggling of weapons. After achieving his goal, however, he started operating as a superhero for New York City, and he would later become a member of the New Justice Force. |

| 452 | |
| 453 | An advanced alien race that is connected to the origins of the Turtles. A group of them got stranded on Earth hundreds of years ago and since then, they only want to return to their home planet. |
| 454 | ---- |
| 455 | * AdaptationalLateAppearance: The Utroms first appeared in the original comics in volume 1, issue ''3''. In this series, most early stories from volume 1 have already been adapted in season 1, while they make their debut at the end of said season. |
| 456 | * AlienAmongUs: Obviously. A group of them crash-landed on Earth and, due to the primitive technology on Earth, had to wait in order of the technology on the planet to advance enough in order to return to their planet. During their time on Earth, they blended quite well in human society. |
| 457 | * AlienNoninterferenceClause: The Utroms landed on Earth in medieval times. They strictly adhered to this to avoid skewing humanity's development. Once human technology had advanced enough, they started developing it to try and return home. |
| 458 | * BigGood: As a whole, the stranded Utroms more or less served as this in earlier seasons. Not only did they oppose the Foot Clan and the Shredder long before the Turtles and Splinter's creation, but they also were responsible ''for'' the heroes' creation, whose actions over the course of the series would lead to the downfall of Shredder and the Foot Clan. |
| 459 | * {{Cephalothorax}}: Their bodies resemble brains. |
| 460 | * DecontaminationChamber: After prolonged contact with the outside world, they have to go to one of these. Judging from the Utroms's reactions, it doesn't seem very pleasent. |
| 461 | * GoodAllAlong: In "The Search for Splinter", the Turtles discover that the Utroms have kidnapped Splinter and put him in a pod. In reality, they rescued him and put him in the pod in order to heal his injuries. |
| 462 | * GlowingMechanicalEyes: Their exosuits have these. |
| 463 | * KangarooCourt: At the end of "Exodus" part 2, a group of Utroms act as judges during Ch'rell's trial and proceed to list every crime he has committed before banishing him to an ice asteroid. Despite the trope's name, this is arguably a subversion since Ch'rell is guilty as sin of everything the Utrom judges are condemning him for. |
| 464 | * MobileSuitHuman: In order to blend with humans, the stranded Utroms salvaged some technology from their crashed ship and created such suits. |
| 465 | * MythologyGag: One of them is named Krang, after the alien in the first cartoon loosely based on the Utroms. It's played for laughs as he's named and told to shut up in the same breath. |
| 466 | * OrganicTechnology: Some of their technology has shades of this. |
| 467 | ** When the Turtles and Splinter get stuck in a trap from "Secret Origins", Donatello notes that the room has nerves and uses this to his advantage, literally by making the room sick and vomiting them. |
| 468 | * PayEvilUntoEvil: Stranding someone on a frozen planetoid to die all alone in a far-flung part of outer space might seem inhumanly cruel, but given the many, ''many'' crimes Ch'rell committed against Utroms, mutants and humans alike, the Utroms are frankly being lenient when they do this to him. |
| 469 | * PerfectPacifistPeople: They are a pacifistic and scientific people. Fugitoid, when he is offered a new home on the Utrom's home planet, even remarks that he's thrilled to work with a race that will use his research for good. {{Subverted|Trope}}, as if they need to fight, they will fight. Also, there's Ch'rell a.k.a [[BigBad the Shredder]]. |
| 470 | * ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: They have really long lifespans, which is indicated by both Mortu and Ch'rell, who have been on Earth since the times of Medieval Japan and haven't aged a bit. |
| 471 | * TheReveal: That the employees of the TCRI building are infact Utroms, and that the mutagen that transformed Splinter and the Turtles was a byproduct of their scientific attempts to return home. |
| 472 | * Skelebot9000: Their exosuits (without any disguises) resemble skeletons. |
| 473 | * StarfishAliens: They are small brain-like creatures who have small appendages. |
| 474 | * TechnicolorEyes: Their eyes have blue sclera and red irises. |
| 475 | * WeWait: In "Secret Origins", the stranded Utroms used their long lifespan to their advantage, waiting for Earth's technology to advance long enough and use it to return to their planet. |

| 485 | The CEO of the Techno Cosmic Research Institute (TCRI), the company that created the ooze which mutated the Turtles. He's revealed to be an Utrom, who leads the group of stranded Utroms on Earth, wanting nothing more than to return to their home planet. |
| 486 | ---- |
| 487 | * ArchEnemies: As they were both stranded on Earth, Mortu and the Shredder regarded each other as this before the Turtles showed up. |
| 488 | * AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: He was the one who led the stranded Utroms on Earth and he goes hand to hand with ''Shredder''. |
| 489 | * TheBusCameBack: In "Exodus" part 2, he returns and saves the Turtles, Karai, Chaplin and Shredder from the exploding ship. [[BackForTheFinale He also later reappears at Casey and April's wedding.]] |
| 490 | * TheCaptain: He was this before Ch'rell sabotaged his ship and crashed on Earth. |
| 491 | * CanonForeigner: He was created for this series. |
| 492 | * {{Expy}}: He's the 2003 series' version of Professor Jordan Perry from ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesIITheSecretOfTheOoze'', albeit less nerdier and TheProfessor looking, wearing dark clothes instead over lighter colors such as donning a BadassLongcoat over a typical white lab coat and being more based on the initial depiction of him revealed to be an Utrom before revising him to being a mostly human character. |
| 493 | * GoneHorriblyWrong: Says this when the Turtles get trapped in the virtual reality program. |
| 494 | * NoodleIncident: In "Wedding Bells and Bytes", an Utrom informs Mortu that there is no sushi at the wedding, to which Mortu mentions that the last time he was near sushi he ended up smelling like soy sauce. |
| 495 | * ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Since the times of Medieval Japan, he hasn't aged one bit. |
| 496 | * SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: The way he explains time dilation to the Turtles is this. Obviously, only Donatello understands him. |

| 498 | * SdrawkcabName: His name is "Utrom" spelled backwards. |

| 500 | * TemptingFate: A rare "From bad to good" example. Mortu doesn't believe that the Turtles will be able to activate the internal fail-safe of the virtual reality program. They do. |

| 531 | ---- |
| 532 | * AncientTradition: The organization was created by the Utroms during medieval Japan in order to protect themselves, as well as oppose the Shredder's clan of ninjas. |
| 533 | * BadassLongcoat: The trenchcoat is a part of their modern-day attire. |
| 534 | * BadassNormal: All of them appear to not have any powers, but only ''one'' of them is capable of defeating several dozen Foot Ninjas. |
| 535 | * CanonForeigner: They were created for this series. |
| 536 | * TheCavalry: In "Return to New York" part 3, as the Turtles are about to get attacked by ''legions'' of Foot ninja, the Guardians come to assist them in the battle. |
| 537 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: The Guardians were fairly prominent in season 1, aiding the Turtles in their battles against the Foot Clan. At the end of the "Secret Origins" three-parter of season 2, they get transported, alongside the Utroms and the Fugitoid, to the Utrom's homeworld, but (unlike both the Utroms and the Fugitoid) they never reappear again. |
| 538 | * CoolShades: All of them wear dark shades. [[SunglassesAtNight Even at night.]] |
| 539 | * CoolSword: All of them have these and with them, they can defeat any Foot ninja they encounter. [[PowerGlows They even glow.]] |
| 540 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: In "Shredder Strikes" part 2, Leo is cornered by dozens of Foot Ninjas. Suddenly, a Guardian jumps down and proceeds to kick the Foot's butt. |
| 541 | * LuredIntoATrap: The Guardian that Leo befriended, is lured to the Foot's HQ when the tower has seemingly reactivated. In reality, the Turtles wanted to get his attention and to ask him about the truth. When he says that he can't tell them the truth and leaves, the Turtles track him with a [[TrackingDevice small tracking device]]. |
| 542 | * MenOfSherwood: Only one or two of the Utrom Guardian Ninjas have any dialogue or prominence, but when a whole detachment of them join in the battle against Shredder in "Return to New York Part III", they help win the day. |
| 543 | * MysteriousWatcher: In "The Shredder Strikes" part 1, two Guardians are watching Leo, who just met the Shredder for the first time. |
| 544 | * NoNameGiven: We never discover any of the Guardians' names. Not even the one that befriended Leo. |
| 545 | * TheOmniscientCouncilOfVagueness: They are lead, or at least monitored, by "The Council". Played with, as they aren't actually evil and are in fact Utroms. |
| 546 | * TheReveal: In "The Search for Splinter", the Turtles realize that the Guardians are somehow connected to a company called TCRI, the company that created the ooze that mutated the Turtles. |
| 547 | * SamuraiPonytail: All of them have ponytails, but are more of a case of [[SamuraiShinobi ninja-samurai combination]]. |
| 548 | * SamuraiShinobi: They are ninjas, who are loyal to their masters, the Utroms. |
| 549 | * SecretTestOfCharacter: During the "The Shredder Strikes" two parter, the Guardians are monitoring the Turtles, seeing if they will accept Shredder's offer and join the Foot. When they discover that they rejected, a guardian helps Leo in a battle and introduces himself. |
| 550 | * SmokeOut: This is how the Guardian from "The Search For Splinter" part 1 leaves, when he can't tell the Turtles the truth. |

| 576 | ---- |
| 577 | * AdaptationalLateAppearance: In the original comics, he appeared as early as ''issue 5 of volume 1''[[note]] not to mention his own comic book series that was published before TMNT was created[[/note]]. In this series, most stories from volume 1 (specifically the issues that were adapted into the "Shredder Strikes Back" two-parter and "The Return to New York" three parter) had been adapted in season 1, while Fugitoid makes his debut in "The Fugitoid". |
| 578 | * BadassBookworm: Becomes one as the series goes on. |
| 579 | * BatmanGambit: Knowing the Triceratons and the Federation will relentlessly search and kill in order to obtain his teleportal, Fugitoid deletes the Teleportal plans and comes to Earth in "Worlds Collide" part 1, where he tries to surrender himself to them. If one of the sides captures him, he will upload a virus, that will cripple both sides' forces, which will force them to surrender. While this plan works with the Federation, [[SubvertedTrope the Triceratons realize this]] and use it to their advantage by destroying their helpless enemy...until Traximus' rebels come in and overthrow Zanramon. |
| 580 | * BellBottomLimbedBots: Professor Honeycutt, a.k.a. The Fugitoid, falls cleanly under this. |
| 581 | * BrainUploading: Thanks to a combination of [[LightningCanDoAnything lightning]] and his telepathic helmet, his mind was transferred into his robot's body. |
| 582 | * DisneyDeath: He sacrifices himself to cripple the Triceraton and Federation forces in the "Space Invaders"/"Worlds Collide" arc, and is given a space burial, but later returns several episodes later into the season. |
| 583 | * EleventhHourRanger: To the Turtles in late Season 3, assisting them in their final assault on the Shredder. |
| 584 | * HeroicSacrifice: |
| 585 | ** Pulls one in early Season 3 to cripple the war over his teleporter, but later returns alive and well. |
| 586 | ** At the end of Season 3, he agrees to join the Turtles and Splinter in their attempted TakingYouWithMe to Shredder. |

| 588 | * JustAMachine: Although it's not true, he is considered this by The Federation. |
| 589 | * TheProfessor: Obviously. |
| 590 | * PutOnABus: In early Season 2 he leaves to live with the Utroms. At the end of Season 3, he returns to them and isn't seen again until the series finale. |
| 591 | * TookALevelInBadass: In the series finale, he's the very first of the Turtles' allies to leap into the fray against the Cyber Shredder's forces. |
| 592 | * UndyingLoyalty: To the Turtles. |
| 593 | -->'''Honeycutt''': I am with you until the end. |
| 594 | * UnwantedAssistance: In the "Worlds Collide" three-parter, he's trying to surrender himself to the Triceratons now that he's wiped the data of his teleporter from his memory, and is annoyed that the Turtles are trying to save him from the warring aliens. |
| 595 | * WasOnceAMan: A non-monstrous example. Honeycutt was once a human-looking alien scientist, who tried to free his robot companion when he entangled himself in wires. Due to a combination of his telepathic helmet and [[LightningCanDoAnything lightning]], his original body was destroyed, while his mind was transported in his robot. |
| 596 | * WeaponizedTeleportation: In both seasons 2 and 3, Honeycutt wants to ''completely [[DefiedTrope defy]] this'', as he has created a Teleportal that is wanted by both [[EvilVsEvil the Triceratons and the Federation]], who would use it to conquer the galaxy by teleporting weapons of mass destructions to the cores of planets, which would result in the dead of untold millions. |

| 607 | ---- |
| 608 | * BashBrothers: He becomes one with Raphael. Over the course of the "The Big Brawl" four-parter, they are put in a duel, in which Raphael won. Even then, Traximus took Raph for a drink and began to talk like good old friends. Traximus later helps Raph infiltrate Daimyo's fortress and discover why Splinter was imprisoned. In "Space Invaders" part 2, where the Turtles encounter Traximus for a third time, he jokingly asks them for a rematch. Raph is enthusiastic in meeting him again. |
| 609 | * CanonForeigner: He was created for this series. |
| 610 | * DefeatMeansFriendship: In "The Arena", he's defeated by Leo, who spares him. This act reminds him of what fighing with honor is, which makes him refuse to fight them later in the episode, thus becoming an ally of the Turtles. |
| 611 | * {{Expy}}: He's very similar to Maximus from ''Film/{{Gladiator}}''. Both of them are warriors who are turned into gladiators. He's also similar to Spartacus, as they both lead a rebellion. [[spoiler: A succesful one in Traximus' case.]] |
| 612 | * GatlingGood: At the end of "World Collide" part 3, he's given a gatling gun by Mozar and destroys Zanramon's throne. |

| 619 | ** In "The Arena", he proclaims that Zanramon's regime is coming to an end. |
| 620 | ** In "Worlds Collide" part 3, he succeeds in overthrowing him. He proclaims [[DawnOfAnEra the beginning of a new era of peace and prosperity between the Triceratons and the Federation]]. |
| 621 | * RuleOfSymbolism: InUniverse. He destroys Zanramon's throne, symbolising the end of Zanramon's regime and the return of honor to the Triceraton society. Before he does so, he has this to say: |
| 622 | -->Let this be a symbol of things to come. From this day forward, none shall sit upon the throne of the Triceratons! |
| 623 | * ThrillSeeker: His quote from "Battle Nexus" part 3 suggests he is one. It's the quote for his character page. |
