5[[folder:In General]]
6* TheAlliance: Rather than a single unified front, they're several different groups and independent agents with their own agendas that stay out of each other's way and aid the others on occasion.
7* BigBadDuumvirate: The Light as a whole are a LegionOfDoom consisting of seven individual villains at a time, always with an eighth villain as an [[TheDragon enforcer]] to do their dirty work. Vandal Savage is the founder of the alliance and first among equals.
8* CompositeCharacter: The organization is mostly based on their characterization from ''Young Justice'', including their leaders.
9* ComplexityAddiction: Exploited. The Light often stages complicated attacks they expect to fail as distractions for far simpler operations.
10* EvilPlan: They want to turn Earth into a galactic power, and believe the way to do so is through "survival of the fittest" and playing various other factions against each other.
11* GreaterScopeVillain: Considering their involvement, it's no surprise they're this for several heroes.
12* TheIlluminati: The Light seems to have a lot of Illuminati-characteristics, down to their group's name being similar to "the enlightened ones".
13* LegionOfDoom: A unique reconstruction of it.
14* LightIsNotGood: They're called the Light and they're evil. Simple as that.
15* NebulousEvilOrganization: So nebulous they don't even have a symbol.
16* TeethClenchedTeamwork: While they're nominally allies, some groups within The Light dislike or downright ''hate'' each other, like H.I.V.E. and the League of Assassins.
17* WellIntentionedExtremist: Want to fast-track humanity's advancement and put Earth on top throughout the ''universe''. Unfortunately, they're also willing to do almost anything to get there.
18* XanatosGambit: The Light are experts at these, setting up hedges in nearly every encounter that ensures that no matter whether the heroes win or lose, The Light's plans continue moving forward.

23* AdaptationNameChange: Instead of simply Kobra, their leader goes by Lord Naga instead.

25* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: A snake-themed villain who runs a snake-themed cult.

28
29[[folder:Icicle (Joar Mahkent)]]
30* AbusiveParents: He is dismissive of his son, only caring said son's presence when he can be of use to him.
31* AnIcePerson: Just like his son.
32* CompositeCharacter: He's a combination of his original comic book self and Thomas Snow, Caitlin Snow's father from the ''Arrowverse''.
33* RelatedInTheAdaptation: He's the stepfather of Caitlin Snow and her sisters, having married their mother Sigrid Nansen after she abandoned her husband.
34[[/folder]]
35
36[[folder:Frostbite (Cameron Mahkent)]]
37Frostbite is the son of the first Icicle, Joar. Cameron somehow inherited his freezing powers from his father's prolonged exposure to his cold-ray gun which altered Cameron's DNA. Half-brother of Caitlin Snow and her sisters.
38----
39* AdaptationNameChange: He's not called Icicle Jr. but goes by the name of Frostbite.
40* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: His skin is light blue (with or without activating his powers) because he was born with cryokinetic powers.
41* AnIcePerson: Frostbite has the ability to create large ice crystals from his own body, and freeze the air around him to create various obstacles. He has demonstrated the ability to sling crystals great distances, which freeze whatever they strike on contact. He can also shoot light blue beams of ice.
42* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Because of his father's marriage to Sigrid Nansen, he's the half-brother of Caitlin Snow and her sisters Bethany and Roxanne.

84[[folder:King Vertigo (Werner Zytle)]]
85[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/werner_zytle_earth_27.jpg]]
86
87Werner Zytle is the ruler of the country Vlatava, and one of the archenemies of Green Arrow.
88----
89* AdaptationalBadass: Besides his signature power of inducing vertigo unto others, he can also overwhelm the senses of people and even disrupt the balance of electronics.
90* AdaptationOriginConnection: The one who made his first hearing aid that allowed him to hear and remain balanced was Adrian Veidt.
91* AmplifierArtifact: Werner wears an apparatus on the back of his head with nodes that fit into each ear. This device creates an electromagnetic field that offsets the defect in Werner's inner ear. Werner can use this device to amplify his hearing to superhuman levels. As an added bonus, the electrical field also makes telepathic manipulation rather difficult.
92* AristocratsAreEvil: He's a former Count, now King and a terrorist and a usurper.
93* BadassCape: Wears a fancy green cape over his coat and suit.
94* BoringButPractical: His only power is to disorient people, but it's more than effective against his opponents.
95* ClassyCane: Which also doubles as a CaneSword and StaffOfAuthority.
96* CombatPragmatist: He uses his powers to gain an upper hand in battle.
97* CompositeCharacter: Being married to Lady Quark means he's composed with Lord Volt, Lady Quark's husband in the comics.
98* DiplomaticImpunity: Being the ruler of Vlatava means he can get away with much of his illegal dealings without his enemies being able to do much about it without evidence.
99* EvilCripple: Werner was born with an inner ear defect that made hearing and maintaining his balance almost impossible. When he was eight, he was given a special apparatus designed by Adrian Veidt which offset his disability. If this device is removed, Werner's inner ear disorder will quickly incapacitate him.
100* EvilUncle: To Perdita Zytle alias Gabrielle Doe alias Halo. Which he tried to kill his niece and the queen of his country in order to gain the throne for himself.
101* GreenAndMean: Has green eyes and dresses mostly in green and he's a pretty nasty costumer.
102* ManOfWealthAndTaste: Dresses in a fancy suit with a coat and a cape with a golden chain, plus a cane, all to show his status as the new king of Vlatava.
103* MasterSwordsman: Werner is a master swordsman, particularly with his cane's hidden blade. He is slightly better than his nemesis Green Arrow, though both have their share of victories in their past duels.
104* MindManipulation: This is Werner's infamous "Vertigo Effect", which uses psionic energy to disrupt his enemies' balance. He achieves this through a combination of empathic signals, illusions that create a visual distortion effect and auditory feedback, and even psionic manipulation to the local gravitational field surrounding Werner. Werner can use each of these effects independently or simultaneously. Similarly, he can target a specific individual or create a wide area of effect that does not distinguish between friend or foe. His ability is also capable of disrupting guidance systems on missiles, vehicles and detection systems of all kind. Werner is immune to his psionic effects.
105* MindOverMatter: Though controlled Odic manipulation, Werner can destabilize the gravity around him, causing himself or nearby objects or persons to float in defiance of gravity. Use of this ability requires concentration.
106* {{Pride}}: Werner is an extremely arrogant person. He enjoys lording his greatness over others — especially his long-time archnemesis Green Arrow.
107* RelatedInTheAdaptation: He's married to Tashana Bogdanow, better known as Lady Quark, making him brother in-law of Anton and Szemere Bogdanow/Scimitar, which makes him uncle by marriage of Wolfgang Bogdanow. Through his Kasnian mother he's related to Lyuben Plunder of ECO.
108* RoyalInbreeding: It's believed that the reason behind his hearing in-balance is due to his family's shallow gene pool, which only married with nobility of the other three neighboring kingdoms; Kasnia, Zandia and Markovia.
109* SensoryOverload: Werner can destabilize a person's emotions, causing an emotionally stable person to experience 'emotional vertigo' which is likely to quickly turn the affected persons(s) to violent anger, irrational fear, immense confusion, or uninhibited lust. Werner cannot control the specific reaction of any person, but he is a good judge of character and can often manipulate events to put a person in a situation where his power can tip the scales and elicit the desired response.
110* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: He's not a member of the League of Assassins in the comics, but he is here due to his enmity with Green Arrow.
111* TheUsurper: Has his brother and his wife killed so he can usurp his niece.
112* WhiteHairBlackHeart: White-blond hair on a man willing to murder his own niece to usurp his home country's throne.
113[[/folder]]
114
115[[folder:Cadmus Labs]]
116* AdaptationOriginConnection: They were originally Gila Flats, before being bought by [=LuthorCorp=] as the future site of Cadmus Labs.
117* ForScience: Basically their entire motivation.
118* GreaterScopeVillain: They're the ones who experimented on Grodd, gave steroids to John Diggle and created Conner Kent, Galatea and Bizarro.
119** They're also the ones who experimented on and indirectly created the Royal Flush Gang, as well as giving Carrie Cutter, Slade Wilson and Alex Fairchild the COBALT formula.
120** Cadmus Labs also kidnapped and experimented on the children of former members of Team 7, who would go on to become the hero team [=Gen13=].
121* MadScientist: An entire lab dedicated to the mad sciences.
122* SatelliteCharacter: So far no member has appeared in person, and they serve mainly as motivation for different characters.

125!!Fifth Circle Operatives
126* AmazonBrigade: With the exception of Black Manta, all known operatives of this circle are women.
127* ElementalPowers: Siren represents water, Volcana represents fire, Poison Ivy represents earth, Livewire represents lightning and Killer Frost represents ice. Black Manta is TheTeamNormal.

136
137Originally a shock-jock Leslie Willis was turned into electricity-based super villain known as Livewire.
138----
139* DeadpanSnarker: Comes with her job as a ShockJock.
140* DumbassDJ: Before gaining her powers, she was a popular DJ who spent all her time insulting Superman in order to boost her ratings.
141* ElementalBaggage: She works like a battery; she must absorb charge from other electricity sources to use her powers, and when that charge runs out, she's [[BroughtDownToNormal normal]].
142* FireIceLightning: Has formed a trio of sorts with Killer Frost and Volcana.
143* FlippingTheBird: In her Arkham mugshot.
144* TheGlassesComeOff: When Leslie got her powers, her eyesight improved and she stopped using glasses. But when she is wearing an inhibitor collar in Arkham, her powers don't work and she has to wear glasses again.
145* HandBlast: Livewire also uses an unusual application of which is the ability to act as a radio antenna as well as fire powerful blasts of electrical energy.
146* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: She's been diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder. She has an exaggerated sense of self importance and [[AttentionWhore constant attention seeking behavior]]. She is also oversensitive to failure, is prone to extreme mood swings between self-admiration and crippling insecurity, and tends to exploit interpersonal relationships for short-term gain.
147* TheLadette: While she's a woman, she doesn't act very feminine.
148* LightningCanDoAnything: Passing through Superman first apparently means it can create metahumans. Applying the trope to Livewire specifically, she's able to do nonsensical things like dive into TV screens and then appear on them.
149* LogicalWeakness: Livewire and water do not mix. Her stored electricity will short circuit and at least partially dissipate if she gets wet.
150* NavelDeepNeckline: She has a large lightning bolt-shaped slit that goes down to her belly button.
151* PsychoElectro: She has electrical powers and isn't very sane.
152* ShockAndAwe: Gains electric powers [[LightningCanDoAnything after being struck by lightning]]. Livewire has the ability to absorb, generate and project volumes of electrical energy of an extremely high voltage. She also has the ability to transform into living energy. In that form she can transmit herself through powerlines.
153* StatuesqueStunner: She's 5'9"/175cm tall, and she's not bad looking at all.

158[[caption-width-right:250:[[labelnote:Click for Civilian Look]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/claire_selton_earth_27.jpg]][[/labelnote]]
159* BareMidriffsAreFeminine: As Volcana she wears a tank-top that leaves her flat stomach on display and she's quite seductive, even if it's not her primary approach.
160* CanonImmigrant: She first appeared in ''Superman: The Animated Series''.
161* CleavageWindow: As Volcana her outfit comes with a circular one.
162* ConspicuousGloves: As part of her ensemble as Volcana she wears red gloves.
163* DarkActionGirl: She's willing to fight and is also a villain.
164* EvilIsBurningHot: She's a villain with fire powers.
165* FieryRedhead: She's got long orange hair and her temper can get as fiery as her powers.
166* FierySensuality: She's very attractive and the fire powers make her even more intense-looking.
167* FireIceLightning: Has formed a trio of sorts with Killer Frost and Livewire.
168* FlamingHair: Her hair is just as long as Starfire's and she can set it on fire with her powers.
169* FlyingFirepower: She has pyrokinesis and flight.
170* GlowingEyesOfDoom: Her eyes glow orange when using her powers and she's as dangerous as they come.
171* PlayingWithFire: She can create streams and even crude shapes of fire.
172* RedEyesTakeWarning: Her eyes turned red when her powers manifested and she's not someone you want to upset.

175[[folder:Poison Ivy (Pamela Isley)]]
176[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/poison_ivy_e_27_enhanced.jpg]]
177[[caption-width-right:250:[[labelnote:Click for Civilian Look]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pamela_isley.jpg]][[/labelnote]]
178
179A brilliant botanical biochemist, Pamela Isley is a fervent eco-terrorist out to save the world's plant life by any means necessary.
180----
181* ActionMom: She's the spiritual mother of Tefé Holland/Sprout. She's also the parent/creator of Hazel, Thorn and Rose Isley.
182* AdaptationalBadass: While powerful, most versions of Ivy are {{Glass Cannon}}s that rely on her plants to do all the fighting. Here, she has enhanced physical capabilities to go with her plant powers.
183* AdaptationalAngstDowngrade: Since Jason Woodrue doesn't interact with her much on Earth-27, she doesn't have a history of abuse that many of her counterparts do.
184* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: When she's in Poison Ivy mode, her skin turns green due to her connection to The Green. In Arkham Asylum, Ivy's inhibitor collar lowers her chlorophyll levels, turning her skin from green to flesh colored. Since her powers are what corrected her vision, she also needs her glasses when she wears the collar.
185* AntiVillain: She wants to protect plant life and stop humans from polluting the world and deforesting it. The problem is that she views a plant's life as infinitely more valuable than any number of humans' lives (even if it's just a tiny leaf, since that leaf can sprout into a new plant).
186* BadassBookworm: She's a very talented and knowledgeable botanist and chemist, but she's also one of the most deadly people on the planet, with powerful control over nature.
187* BareMidriffsAreFeminine: Her outfit as Poison Ivy shows off her toned stomach, and she's incredibly feminine and seductive.
188* BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: With Harley and Catwoman as the Gotham City Sirens.
189* BettyAndVeronica: She is the Betty to Joker's Veronica and Harley's Archie. Compared to the Joker, she is far more loving and affectionate toward Harley. Granted, it's not saying much and she isn't above her own problems.
190* BewareTheQuietOnes: Somewhat. Back when she was just Pamela, she was actually pretty shy and demure with the implications of having controlling parents. Then her accident happens and she finally vents out her problems and issues.
191* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The redhead to Harley's blonde and Selina's brunette.
192* BlueAndOrangeMorality: What keeps her from being a purely evil character despite her occasional state as a Misanthrope Supreme is her completely alien sense of right and wrong. In short, she considers crimes in terms of their effect on nature, starting with plant life, then animals, with humanity on the lower scale.
193* CharmPerson: Ivy's pheromones tend to work like this. She can also use more direct MindControl through toxic kisses (when they don't just kill outright).
194* CulturedBadass: She is quite versed in being sophisticated and lady-like. However, she mostly uses it as part of her FemmeFatale allure. She also drops obscure botanical knowledge at the drop of a hat, often in the context of explaining that YouAreAlreadyDead to her poisoning victims.
195* DarkActionGirl: As said below, she isn't much of a fighter but that doesn't make her any less dangerous.
196* DeadpanSnarker: Being around Harley so much gives her a lot of practice.
197* DefrostingIceQueen: Upon meeting Harley, Ivy [[CharacterDevelopment softened somewhat towards humans]], but still manages to be [[{{Tsundere}} quite strict]] whenever Harley screws up her plans. [[CuteClumsyGirl Which is frequently]].
198* DisproportionateRetribution: Will straight up murder all of humanity because they mistreat plants. Hell, even being vegetarian is enough to earn a death sentence from her.
199* DruggedLipstick: Most common explanation for her deadly or mind controlling kiss.
200* EcoTerrorist: As stated previously, her ultimate goal is to avenge crimes against plants.
201* EveryoneWentToSchoolTogether: She went to Gotham State University with Phillip Sullivan, creator of Black Orchid.
202* FallenHero: Ivy originally wanted to use her plants to help people, but circumstances led her to become the villain Poison Ivy.
203* FriendsWithBenefits: This is one way to describe her relationship with Harley.
204* GardenOfEvil: She tends to constantly be making these for bases of operations, which is only logical.
205* GardenGarment: She's usually wearing leaves and flowers.
206* GoodPowersBadPeople: The current image trope. Ivy's control over plant life would have been fairly benevolent on its own. Too bad she is an insane and genocidal misanthrope.
207* GreenMeansNatural: The [[GreenThumb chlorokinetic]] villainess Poison Ivy has green eyes, generally wears green, and sometimes has green skin.
208* GreenThumb: The quintessential plant-themed comic book character. She is an avatar of The Green after all.
209* HonoraryAunt: She and Selina are Lucy Quinzel's 'aunts'.
210* {{Hypocrite}}:
211** It's kind of hypocritical that a woman who claims to want to protect plants from being exploited does so by... manipulating plants to grow in all manner of unnatural ways.
212** For all her disdain of humanity and hating using people, a large part of her motivation boils down to payback for her neglected childhood and heartbreak from her college professor, which is a very personal, selfish and petty driving force.
213* IHaveManyNames: Rose Branch, Lilly Bush, Ivy Thorn, Patient #66181-M are among her aliases.
214* KissOfDeath: She can easily transmit poison through her lips.
215* LegFocus: She has very long, toned, yet shapely legs.
216* ManEatingPlant: She specializes in sicking these on her enemies.
217* MadScientist: Possesses a disturbed and unhinged love for plants, to the point of preferring them to people.
218* MasterPoisoner: Her main form of attack; it helps that her body makes it on its own, though she can make it in a lab just as well.
219* MoralityPet: Harley is this to her, serving as her first real connection to humanity.
220* MsFanservice: Ivy is this as always with her [[AmazonianBeauty voluptuously athletic body]], [[ImpossibleHourglassFigure impressive hourglass figure]], buxom breasts, and [[LegFocus long shapely legs]]. She tends not to wear anything, other than leaves and [[GardenGarment vines]].
221* PlantPerson: '''The''' example, in comics. Often, her skin is colored green and she protrudes leaves to cement the fact.
222* PoisonousPerson: Her body (and the plants she controls) typically utilize a wide variety of poisons and toxins which can kill in anywhere from seconds to days.
223* RedHeadInGreen: Her primary clothing is green, and her skin color has also become green, but she is always a red head.
224* ReformedCriminal: Zigzagged. While she's nominally a member of The Light, she still has her day job and doesn't commit crimes nearly as frequently as she used to.
225* ShrinkingViolet: Prior to her villain days, she was very shy and this cost her a chance to find more funding for her projects, as she was too afraid to talk to Bruce. She shedded this after being exposed to chemicals that made her more confident.
226* SpikeShooter: She can shoot thorns from her wrists.
227* TheGlassesComeOff: The serum that turned her into Poison Ivy corrected her vision. She needs to wear them again if her powers are suppressed though.
228* ToxicFriendInfluence: Subverted case, in that Harley, despite her faults, is generally the sole person who influences Ivy away from her misanthropic attitude and contempt of humanity.
229* TrulySingleParent: She has given birth to three "sporelings" named Rose, Hazel and Thorn Isley.
230* VillainousFriendship: Her friendship with Harley is genuine on both sides. She also has shown to be on friendly terms with Catwoman, though not nearly to the extant she is with Harley.
231* VitriolicBestBuds: She may be best friends with Harley, but she sometimes shows a very low opinion of her intelligence and common sense. This is played more seriously as this is one of the factors that keep Ivy and Harley from having a long-lasting relationship.
232* WellIntentionedExtremist: She wants to protect plants from the humans that abuse and massacre them. She'll go to any extremes to do this, and sees human life as meaningless by comparison.
233* WesternTerrorists: Of the "Fanatical Eco-Terrorist" sub-variety. Her fixation on the health of plants often leads to her committing atrocities to protect nature at the expense of human life.
234* WhenTreesAttack: She can summon or grow entire trees to attack her enemies, and she can even get them to walk around.
235* WickedCultured: As part of her Femme Fatale allure, she can behave like a sophisticated and charming lady when she wants.

244----
245[[folder:Blockbuster (Mark Desmond)]]
246* TheGhost: While mentioned by Nightwing, he hasn't been seen in person yet.

254
255After his wife became terminally ill, Dr. Victor Fries devoted his life to saving her and used cryogenics to freeze her to get time to find a cure. After being attacked by his boss Ferris Boyle and exposed to some of his chemicals, Fries could only survive in sub-zero temperatures and built a special suit to keep himself alive, becoming Mr Freeze.
256----
257* AbusiveParents: His father was an abusive ControlFreak.
258* AffablyEvil: Trying to cure his wife was his main motivation, and is perfectly capable of addressing people with 'professional courtesy' if his cell is in a suitably cold temperature.
259** He even saves Selina from Hush's procedure because that's what Nora would have wanted.
260* AnIcePerson: Unlike most examples, his powers don't come naturally. Instead, he has to use his gun (which may or may not be linked to his sub-zero body temperature) to achieve this.
261* BaldOfEvil: The transformation process apparently caused all his hair to fall out.
262* CursedWithAwesome: Freeze's condition means that room temperatures will kill him. However, he can survive without his suit in bitterly cold regions that would kill ordinary humans. Arguably more BlessedWithSuck, since super-cold environments are comparatively rare/temporarily limited and usually very barren, whereas the world where all the people live is out to kill him.
263* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: His desire to save his wife is a major part of his motivation.
264* FreakLabAccident: This is what gave him his powers.
265* FreezeRay: His Freeze Gun.
266* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: He constantly switches allegiance since Nora's health is his main priority.
267* HerrDoktor: Victor's ethnicity is Germanic and has a doctorate in medicine and engineering.
268* IcyBlueEyes: A literal example.
269* LiterallyShatteredLives: He invokes this trope with objects just as much as with people.
270* TheLostLenore: Nora is perhaps one of the best examples in comic books and media.
