31----
32* AdaptationalModesty: While still a FormFittingWardrobe, her costume here covers a lot compared to the comics.
33* ArchEnemy: She and Hawkman for Hath-Set/Vandal Savage.
34* BattleCouple: With Hawkman. [[BelligerentSexualTension If they're not battling each other that is]].
35* BuxomBeautyStandard: She's very well-endowed, as shown off by her Hawkgirl suit, and has no shortage of admirers.
36* CameBackStrong: Invoked and enforced. She and the Hawkman reincarnations either retain the memories of their previous lives or it eventually resurface. Either way, this gives either or both of them time to train for Savage.
37* CelebrityParadox: An episode of ''Series/TheFlash2014'' mentions the ''Franchise/LawAndOrder'' franchise. Her actress' first TV role was a guest appearance on ''Series/LawAndOrderSVU''.
38* TheChosenOne: She is the only one who can successfully kill Vandal Savage [[DeaderThanDead once and for all]]. Even Hawkman, who shares a very similar role in the plot as her, cannot do it.
39* DistaffCounterpart: To Hawkman and his reincarnations.
40* DudeMagnet: Her reincarnations are always involved in a LoveTriangle with Hawkman and Vandal Savage.
41* EternalLove: She and Hawkman are supposed to be soulmates. Unfortunately, Kendra Saunders initially doesn't show affection to Carter Hall in their current reincarnated state... because she doesn't even know who he is.

43* IfICantHaveYou: She usually dies by the hands of Vandal Savage, usually for rejecting him in favor of Hawkman.
44* IHaveManyNames: Thanks to her {{Reincarnation}} curse.
45* KilledOffscreen: All of her reincarnations except Chay-Ara and Kendra Saunders (who lives) are {{Posthumous Character}}s.
46* LegacyCharacter: The Hawkgirl mantle has been used by many of her {{Reincarnation}}s, though who specifically started it is unknown. However, Cisco Ramon is the one who named her (and presumably Hawkman).
47* NoNameGiven: The names of many of her incarnations are not (yet) revealed.
48* OfficialCouple: With Hawkman.
49* OneSteveLimit: Two of her incarnations are both named Kendra, though the surname of [[TheForties the 1940s]] incarnation is unknown.
50* PastLifeMemories: She and Hawkman are capable of remembering their previous lives.
51* PsychicLink: She can feel whatever is happening to Hawkman even after he's dead.
52* {{Reincarnation}}: Originally an Egyptian priestess, she's reincarnated several times over as every time she's killed.
53* ReincarnationRomance: She and Hawkman are fated to find each other in every lifetime.
54* StarCrossedLovers: With Hawkman, over and over again, due to the mystical origins of their powers.
55* StatuesqueStunner: She stands 5'8 and is regarded as attractive by a number of characters.
56* SuperheroSpeciation: She and Hawkman both have the exact same powerset.
57* TheyKilledKennyAgain: She's been killed by Vandal Savage 207 times by the time her latest reincarnation is introduced.
58* TogetherInDeath: She and Hawkman were usually killed by Vandal Savage together.
59* TouchedByVorlons: Becomes a metahuman with reincarnation and winged powers due to exposure from a Thanagarian meteorite.
60* WingedHumanoid: Per the norm, and a blessing of Horus, she can sprout wings from her back as needed.

68
69An Egyptian warrior priestess and lover of Prince Khufu. She is Hawkgirl's original incarnation.
70----
71* BadassPreacher: Promotional materials dubs her as a "Warrior Priestess", though her subsequent {{Reincarnation}}s are unquestionably far more competent than her.
72* MsFanservice: Of all the Hawkgirl incarnations, she shows the most skin.
73* MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: After she and Khufu die, they will repeatedly be reincarnated and start an eternal battle with the now-immortal Hath-Set.
74* PosthumousCharacter: Naturally since she's Hawkgirl's original incarnation.
75* SexyPriest: An Egyptian high priestess who was wearing a toga that shows her [[SexyBacklessoutfit back]] and [[NavelDeepNeckline has such a low cut it shows cleavage and abdomen]]. She's (mutually) desired by Prince Khufu and Vandal Savagee (as Hath-Set).
76* TogetherInDeath: Killed by Hath-Set with Khufu.
77* UrExample: Due to being the original incarnation of Hawkgirl.

89* MyFutureSelfAndMe: She gets to meet Kendra Saunders, her late 20th Century-early 21st Century incarnation.

147
148Hawkgirl's current incarnation, who initially had no idea about her past life as the once priestess. She's first introduced as a barista before being recruited by Rip Hunter. She leaves the Legends at the end of season one after they defeat Vandal Savage to retire and live a normal life with Scythian Torvil as Vandal Savage was finally out of their lives.
149----
150* BelligerentSexualTension: The trailer implies that she and Carter have a volatile relationship.
151* BlingBlingBang: She gets her trademark mace from the comics due to covering the business end in her melted down gold bracelet from her first life, as anything that was with her back then can kill Savage.
152* ChekhovsGunman: Her Hawkgirl alias can be seen [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CDwZ8IkXIAEsuDP.png in the future newspaper]], helping the Arrow, Atom and Flash fight the Reverse-Flash, and she is briefly seen in The Flash Season Finale before her first full length appearance on this show.
153* CompositeCharacter: She shares traits of different characters that took up the Hawk mask in the past - she is part of a heroic couple as [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks she was during her original appearance]], she uses a mace and is the reincarnation of an Egyptian character [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague like JLA's Shayera Hol]] and she is Hispanic and goes by Kendra Saunders [[{{ComicBook/Earth2}} as she does in Earth-2]].
154* TheDogBitesBack: After over 200 lifetimes of being relentlessly stalked and murdered by Savage, Kendra gets the last word between them by stabbing Savage in the chest and taunting him with his own pet name for her.
155* DudeMagnet: Not only Carter and Savage, but she has gained the attention of Cisco in ''The Flash'' and now of both Jax and Ray.
156* EarlyBirdCameo: As pointed out below (and {{Pun}}s aside), her appearance in first season finale of ''The Flash'' basically amounted to this. Her appearance in subsequent episodes of Season 2 of ''The Flash'' amount to much the same thing.
157* ForgottenFallenFriend: Not actually dead, but when Barry [[AvengersAssemble gathers everyone]] to fight the Dominators in the "Invasion!" crossover, he makes no inquiries about the whereabouts of her or Carter. It especially stands out since he *did* notice that Snart wasn't among the Legends and Ray Palmer had [[InternalReveal to catch Barry up]] on his HeroicSacrifice.
158* HiddenDepths: She turns out to be a ''Franchise/StarTrek'' fan, even flirting with Ray by comparing him to [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Captain Picard]].
159* HotLibrarian: Worked as a college librarian when she, Sara and Ray were stuck in TheSixties.
160* HowDoIShotWeb: Unlike Carter, Kendra is just learning how to emerge and awaken her innate powers. Includes an insane FlyOrDie sequence.
161* IconicSequelCharacter: She does not appear in the Arrowverse until it's third year, being the LastEpisodeNewCharacter during ''Series/TheFlash2014'' Season 1.
162* LastEpisodeNewCharacter: She made her debut in the Season 1 finale of ''Series/TheFlash2014''. Of course it's just a quick shot at the end and if you didn't see the ''Legends Of Tomorrow'' trailer you wouldn't know who she is.
163* {{Leitmotif}}: Has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKwn6C3sD7E grand uplifting piece]].
164* LongBusTrip: She has not returned ever since her exit, not even in the {{Crisis Crossover}}s.
165* LoveMakesYouStupid: She couldn't bring herself to kill Savage in 2166, as doing so would leave the brainwashed Carter trapped in Savage's conditioning. Ignoring the fact that Carter can reincarnate if killed, keeping Savage alive is a ''majorly'' bad idea which has severe consequences for the team not long afterwards.
166* MsFanservice: She is very attractive.
167* OneSteveLimit: Her [[TheForties 1940s]] incarnation is also named Kendra, though her surname then is unknown.
168* OutlivingOnesOffspring: Played with. Prof. Boardman was hers and Carter's son from their previous life, but that incarnation of them died long before they see Boardman die.
169* {{Protectorate}}: She was guarded by both Teams Arrow and Flash, and eventually Carter Hall, from Vandal Savage's clutches.
170* PutOnABus: She and Carter leave the team at the end of Season 1 of ''Legends of Tomorrow''.
171* RaceLift: Most versions of Hawkgirl have been Caucasian in the comics (although [[Creator/MariaCanalsBarrera her voice actress]] in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' was Hispanic and redheaded). The comics version of Kendra Saunders that this character is based on is half-Hispanic.
172* RedEyesTakeWarning: When her warrior side takes over.
173* ReluctantHero: Initially unwilling to join the Legends out of fear of Vandal Savage, resorting to Carter having to issue a personal challenge of combat where the winner gets to decide to if they go with Rip or not. [[ResignedToTheCall Kendra loses.]]
174* SadisticChoice: Gets handed one in "Leviathan" courtesy of Savage. Since Savage has had Carter's mind erased in order to prevent him from remembering his past Savage tells Kendra that she can either kill him and risk Carter forever loosing his memories or allow him to live in order to get said memories back. Kendra decides to choose the latter.
175* SupernaturallyYoungParent: She and Carter meet the now elderly orphaned child of their early 20th century incarnations.
176* SuperPoweredEvilSide: She seems to have one, complete with RedEyesTakewarning. Possibly one of her previous incarnations.
177* SuperStrength: She is able to tear off Ray's chestpiece barehanded.
178* TookALevelInBadass: After spending countless lifetimes and most of her on screen battles with Savage, either dead or near fatally wounded, Kendra, with the help of Carter's mace imbued with the bracelet she wore on the night of her first death, almost manages to kill Savage singlehandedly. He only survives thanks to the SadisticChoice mentioned above.
179* {{Transplant}}: Played with. While she was designed to be a main character in this show from the get-go, she was a RecurringCharacter on ''Series/TheFlash2014'' before this show airs.
180* TrappedInThePast: She,Sara, and Ray were trapped in the late 50s to the very beginning of TheSixties during mid Season 1.

197----
198* AdaptationalModesty: Hawkman's costume in the comics provides a straight-out WalkingShirtlessScene. Here, he is fully clothed/armored. He still gets a few shirtless scenes, [[EstrogenBrigadeBait plus some guy-liner]].
199* ArchEnemy: He and Hawkgirl for Hath-Set/Vandal Savage.
200* BattleCouple: With Hawkgirl. [[BelligerentSexualTension If they're not battling each other that is]].
201* CameBackStrong: Invoked and enforced. He and the Hawkgirl reincarnations either retain the memories of their previous lives or it eventually resurface. Either way, this gives either or both of them time to train for Savage.
202* CelebrityParadox: The ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'' is acknowledged to exist in this universe. His actor had a guest role in ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD'' before being cast here.
203* CompositeCharacter: Hawkman has traits of Klarn Arg the Immortal Man, Vandal Savage's primal nemesis. They both are immortals who reincarnate upon death, possesses superpowers, and was a contemporary of Vandal Savage who ended up becoming his archnemesis.
204* DemotedToExtra: Invoked. Unlike Creator/ColinDonnell (Tommy Merlyn) and Creator/RickCosnett (Eddie Thawne), his actor was not given a [[AndStarring "Special Guest Star"]] citation during his reappearances after his death [[note]]Former ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' mainstay Creator/ManuBennett (Slade Wilson), while his character is still alive, was also not given the same honor unlike the actor of the also still-living Roy Harper, Creator/ColtonHaynes[[/note]].
205* EternalLove: He and Hawkgirl are supposed to be soulmates. Unfortunately, Kendra Saunders doesn't show affection to Carter Hall in their current reincarnated state... because she doesn't even know who he is. She eventually does grow to love him, and they leave to start a life together after Savage is killed.
206* IconicSequelCharacter: Does not appear in the Series/{{Arrowverse}} until its fourth year.
207* IHaveManyNames: Thanks to his {{Reincarnation}} curse.
208* KilledOffscreen: With the exception of Khufu and Carter Hall (and Scythian Torvil, who lives), all of his reincarnations are {{Posthumous Character}}s.
209* LegacyCharacter: The Hawkman mantle has been used by many of his {{Reincarnation}}s, though who specifically started it is unknown. However, it is implied that Cisco Ramon is the one who named him (as he did so with Hawkgirl).
210* MenAreTheExpendableGender: Played with, since he and Hawkgirl both inevitably fall to Savage anyway, but at least two versions of Hawkman (Hannibal Hawkes and Carter Hall) were killed before Hawkgirl, and Scythian Torvil narrowly escaped the same fate. Justified, since Hawkman is usually the one who takes the initiative in most fights with Savage.
211* MrFanservice: A TallDarkAndHandsome man who is fond of doing {{Shirtless Scene}}s. Also his [[SleevesAreForWimps sleeveless]] battle suit.
212* MurderTheHypotenuse: He usually dies by the hands of Vandal Savage, his ArchEnemy who pines for Kendra.
213* NoNameGiven: The names of many of his incarnations are not (yet) revealed.
214* OfficialCouple: With Hawkgirl.
215* PastLifeMemories: He and Hawkgirl are capable of remembering their previous lives.
216* PragmaticAdaptation: Perhaps the most contradictory and confusing character in comic book history (let's put it this way: the dude's the ''page image'' for ContinuitySnarl) is given a significantly streamlined backstory under a single creative vision.
217* PsychicLink: He can feel whenever Hawkgirl is nearby.
218* {{Reincarnation}}: Originally an Egyptian prince, he's reincarnated several times over as every time he's killed.
219* ReincarnationRomance: He and Hawkgirl are fated to find each other in every lifetime.
220* SleevesAreForWimps: His costume is sleeveless, though it has shoulder pads.
221* SpearCounterpart: To Hawkgirl and her reincarnations.
222* StarCrossedLovers: With Hawkgirl, over and over again, due to the mystical origins of their powers.
223* SuperheroSpeciation: He and Hawkgirl both have the exact same powerset.
224* TallDarkAndHandsome: Played by attractive 5'11 actor Falk Hentschel.
225* TheyKilledKennyAgain: He's been killed by Vandal Savage 208 times by the time his latest reincarnation is introduced.
226* TogetherInDeath: He and Hawkgirl were usually killed by Vandal Savage together.
227* TouchedByVorlons: Becomes a metahuman with reincarnation and winged powers due to exposure from a Thanagarian meteorite.
228* TheUnchosenOne: Despite sharing a very similar role in the plot as Kendra, '''only she''' can permanently kill Savage.
229* WingedHumanoid: Per the norm, and a blessing of Horus, he can sprout wings from her back as needed.

304!!! '''Known Aliases:''' ComicBook/{{Hawkman}} I
305!!! '''First Appearance:''' "[[Recap/TheFlash2014S2E8LegendsOfToday Legends of Today]]" (''The Flash'' 2x8)

307
308Hawkman's incarnation by 2016. By that time, Vandal Savage has killed him and Hawkgirl 206 times. As such, Carter tries to stop him from making 207.
309----
310* AdvertisedExtra: In virtue of being a SacrificialLion who bites it only after the second episode.
311* BelligerentSexualTension: The trailer implies that he and Kendra have a volatile relationship.
312* BettyAndVeronica: He is the Veronica to both Cisco and Ray's Betty for Kendra.
313* BigGuyFatalitySyndrome: He's one of the team's go-to guys when it comes to fighting and also the very first casualty.
314* CarryABigStick: His weapon is a Morning Star.
315* TheCasanova: He's described as being a "confident, charismatic leader"...
316* CasanovaWannabe: ...but Kendra obviously finds his comeons too much. Indeed fans have nicknamed him Stalkman (Granted, he gets major development between the crossover episodes and his finale episode and his assholish behavior is ''nothing'' compared to what Vandal Savage has done to Kendra. At least Carter can take no for an answer... eventually).
317* CharacterDeath: He is killed by Vandal Savage in the second episode of ''Legends''.
318* DeathByAdaptation: Following the footsteps of his ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' incarnation, he gets himself fatally stabbed.
319* DecoyProtagonist: He's credited as one of the main members of the ''Legends'' cast and has a lot of relevance to Savage due to his history of killing Carter's previous incarnations, and then he ends up dying at the end of the pilot.
320* DefeatMeansFriendship: He only starts helping Teams Flash and Arrow after Barry and Oliver kicked his ass.
321* DiedInYourArmsTonight: He dies in Kendra's arms.
322* EarlyBirdCameo: {{Pun}}s aside, he made his first appearance in the second annual ''Series/{{The Flash|2014}}'' and ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' {{Crossover}}.
323* ForgottenFallenFriend: When Barry [[AvengersAssemble gathers everyone]] to fight the Dominators in the "Invasion!" crossover, he makes no inquiries about the whereabouts of him or Kendra. It especially stands out since he *did* notice that Snart wasn't among the Legends and Ray Palmer had [[InternalReveal to catch Barry up]] on his HeroicSacrifice.
324* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Carter can be impatient, sullen, and temperamental, but he's also passionate and loving about Kendra and her well being. He'll do anything to keep her safe and always puts her needs in front of his own.
325* TheMentor: He teaches Hawkgirl on how to use her powers and fight as well as to adjust on the circumstances regarding their situation. Like most mentors, he also bites it.
326* NotWhatItLooksLike: He very well knows that he'll look like Kendra's StalkerWithACrush when he just grabbed her and told her that only he can protect her from Savage.
327* OneManArmy: Downplayed. He still loses, but he was at least able to fight ''both'' Barry and Oliver on equal footing.
328* OutOfFocus: The rest of the team gets a lot more focus and CharacterDevelopment than Carter. It's justified for most of Season One of ''Legends of Tomorrow'', because he's dead.
329* OutlivingOnesOffspring: Played with. Prof. Boardman was his and Kendra's son from their previous life, but those incarnation of them died long before they see Boardman die.
330* SacrificialLion: A significant and badass character that was killed to establish that Savage isn't going to go down easy.
331* ScreamingWarrior: In his [[LetsYouAndHimFight fight with Oliver,]] his response to seeing Barry speeding towards him is to [[BloodKnight charge him head on with a frenzied yell.]]
332* SexyMentor: He acts as the mentor for Hawkgirl and hits on her at the same time. She's not a fan.
333* SinkOrSwimMentor: He casually pushes Kendra off from the top of a building so that her powers can be revealed. Partly justified, since it is a case of HereWeGoAgain for him - his memories have already returned.
334* SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: Has not appeared in the teaser trailer. He does on the main ones though.
335* TheSmartGuy: While Rip has better knowledge of the future (particularly everything post-21st century), Carter has expertise for the past due to being reincarnated several times and having better memories of them than Kendra.
336* TheStoic: He shows even less expression than Oliver.
337* SupernaturallyYoungParent: He and Kendra meet the now elderly orphaned child of their early 20th century incarnations.
338* TallDarkAndSnarky: Stands 5'11 and has an aloof demeanor.
339* WeHardlyKnewYe: After only an episode each on ''Series/TheFlash2014'' and ''Series/{{Arrow}}'', and two episodes on this series, Carter is killed by Vandal Savage.
340* YouCantFightFate: He still dies at the hands of Vandal Savage, except this time [[Series/TheFlash2014 Barry]] is not there to push the ResetButton.

348!!! '''Appearances:''' ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow''
349
350Hawkman's incarnation by 2166. In this lifetime, he is brainwashed by Vandal Savage to be part of his PraetorianGuard. He leaves the Legends at the end of season one after they defeat Vandal Savage to retire and live a normal life with Kendra Saunders as Vandal Savage was finally out of their lives.
351----
352* BackupTwin: By way of reincarnation; he returns to the team after they pick him up in 2166 and after he shakes off Savage's brainwashing. Despite his name being Scythian Torvil, he comes to answer to Carter Hall.
353* BareFistedMonk: Unlike Carter, he fights barehanded as Hawkman.
354* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Savage brainwashed him to work for him.
355* TheBrute: While brainwashed, his main role is to act as muscle for Savage, and he doesn't get much character development besides.
356* DefectorFromDecadence: Immediately joins the Legends the moment his brainwashing wears off.
357* DemotedToExtra: Unlike Carter, his actor's name is not part of the opening credits when he appears.
358* DramaticUnmask: His helmet falls off him after Kendra knocks him out moments before she's supposed to kill Savage.
359* EleventhHourRanger: He joins the team near the end of ''Legends of Tomorrow'' Season 1 .
360* EliteMook: He used to be Savage's most skilled PraetorianGuard.
361* HeelFaceTurn: Originally Savage's [[EliteMook most skilled]] PraetorianGuard, he betrays him after his brainwashing is negated.
362* HesBack: After being killed by Savage in 1975, he reincarnates in the 22nd Century as his BrainwashedAndCrazy EliteMook. Fortunately, when Kendra is about to be killed right in front of him, he finally breaks free from Savage's control and regains his memories.
363* IChooseToStay: He decides to live in ThePresentDay rather than return home to the 22nd Century.
364* LongBusTrip: He has not returned ever since his departure, not even in the {{Crisis Crossover}}s.
365* OutOfFocus: The rest of the team gets a lot more focus and CharacterDevelopment than him. It's justified since he's the EleventhHourRanger.
366* PraetorianGuard: He used to work as one to Vandal Savage after the latter brainwashes him.
367* PutOnABus: He and Kendra leave the team at the end of Season One of ''Legends of Tomorrow'', wanting to start fresh with Savage now truly gone.
368* ReplacementGoldfish: The narrative treats him the same as Carter, which makes sense due to being his reincarnation.
369* ScrewDestiny: Unlike his previous incarnations, he is able to witness the fall of Vandal Savage.
370* SpannerInTheWorks: Kendra had Savage at his mercy before he showed up. Made worse by immediately following it with an accidental (and timely) DramaticUnmask.
371* TrappedInThePast: A willing example. He was born on the 22nd Century, but decides to live in ThePresentDay with Kendra.
372* WelcomeBackTraitor: He is EasilyForgiven by the Legends the moment his brainwashing wears off (though that exactly is what justifies it).
