12	->''"For one hundred thousand years, our civilization flourished, accomplishing wonders."''
13	-->-- '''Jor-El'''
14
15	A race and highly advanced civilization originating from the planet Krypton. After 100 millennia of space colonization, the kryptonian race retreated back to their native planet and imposed population control by outlawing sexual reproduction. The last few generations were born from harvesting DNA from a codex that Jor-El and General Zod would both seek out. They became critically endangered --and functionally extinct -- when their overexploitation of the planet's inner resources caused it to implode.
16	----
17	[[folder:In General]]
18	* AncientAstronauts: Krypton was once a flourishing society and sought to expand themselves in the vastness of space a long time before human civilization even started, but these grandiose projects died out once artificial breeding was established and when they didn't manage to find new resources.
19	** Explorers from a Kryptonian space program crash-landed on Earth sometime during the Stone Age. The ''ComicBook/ManOfSteelPrequel'' comic book implies that their spacecraft's arrival influenced the mythologies of some early humans.
20	** Zod and his crew sought ancient Kryptonian outposts in space once they were freed from the PhantomZone.
21	* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Kryptonians can survive and breathe into the vacuum of space without problem, provided they're exposed to a yellow sun.
22	* {{Bold Explorer}}s: At the apex of their civilization, Kryptonians were prolific space explorers, but by Jor-El's time it's a long bygone era.
23	* CreativeSterility: By the time of Kal-El's birth, Kryptonians were long past their former glory and found no other solution than harvesting the planet's core to compensate for their dying resources. Jor-El points out they could have found other ways to revive their society without resorting to this, like expanding in space again or abandoning artificial breeding.
24	* CrystalSpiresAndTogas: Though hardly the crystal-encrusted world shown in previous ''Superman'' media, the aesthetic is a "neo-medieval" one, with Jor-El, Zod and others wearing armor, capes, and robes over their supersuit-esque bodysuits.
25	* DesignerBabies: At some point, Kryptonians abandoned natural reproduction and started genetically engineering babies to fit specific roles in society without giving the babies any freedom of choice for their future. That social engineering got so radical that Zod views Jor-El's choice to conceive his child naturally as "heresy".
26	* DoomedHometown: They doomed their own native planet by harvesting its core.
27	* DyingRace: There were only a few remaining known Kryptonians after [[EarthShatteringKaboom the planet's explosion]]. After the [[Film/ManOfSteel Battle of Metropolis]], the chances to revive the race are even more meager due to Kal-El being practically the LastOfHisKind.
28	* FantasticCasteSystem: Kryptonians aren't merely sorted into a guild system (leaders, soldiers, scientists, etc.); they are genetically engineered and raised within these guilds. Kal-El represents the ultimate rebellion against this system; he is Krypton's first naturally conceived and birthed child in centuries, and he is able to choose his own path.
29	* FossilRevival: The Codex resembles the skull of a prehistoric humanoid and contains the DNA patterns needed to populate Krypton through artificial means. As the tradtional definition of "codex" is synonymous with "archive", it means Krypton's penultimate generation were effectively clones of previous generations.
30	* HigherTechSpecies: Their technology is the most advanced in the DCEU so far, with the possible exception of the [[Characters/DCEUApokolips New Gods]].
31	* {{Hologram}}s: Kryptonians use holograms that look like they're made of shapeshifting liquid metal.
32	* HumanAliens: Nothing can visually distinguish them from humans.
33	* LEGOGenetics: Jor-El disagrees with the practice that everyone on Krypton has their future decided for them before they are born, but it is also the reason he steals the codex, and infuses it with Kal-El's cells, presumably so that Clark would have the means to basically clone the species back to existence on Earth.
34	* LongLived: They seem to age slower than humans, given how Zod and his crew look the same after 33 years. Though this may just apply to the warrior caste, as they'd need to be in their prime longer than scientists and politicians would.
35	* OlderThanTheyLook: Kryptonians who grew up on their native homeworld age slower than humans, seen with Zod, Faora and Kara. The opposite seems to hold true for Kryptonians who grew up on Earth, as Clark had the appearance of a grown man by the time he was 17.
36	* PhantomZone: As usual, the TropeNamer. The main Kryptonian way of banishing those guilty of high treason is to send them to the dimension called "the Phantom Zone".
37	* PlasmaCannon: Kryptonian guns are basically this.
38	* SuperpowerLottery: [[ThePowerOfTheSun A yellow sun]], such as the one in the Earth's solar system, has tremendous effects on Kryptonian biology, heightening their [[SuperStrength strength]], [[SuperSpeed speed]] and [[SuperSenses senses]] dramatically. They also gain separate abilities, such as the [[FlyingBrick power to fly]], [[XRayVision see through opaque objects]], and [[EyeBeams project thick beams of heat from their eyes]], as well as becoming [[NighInvulnerability virtually impenetrable to most weapons]].
39	* SuperiorSpecies: By far the most powerful species seen in the DC Extended Universe thus far, even ignoring their superpowers. Zod's ships and his World Engine were a greater threat to humanity than ''actual gods'' such as Ares, Enchantress, and Steppenwolf, and his crew consisted of a couple dozen criminals using essentially jury-rigged civilian gear. Lex Luthor later used a Kryptonian ship's genesis chamber to genetically engineer Doomsday, who was, again, on par with or far stronger than the aforementioned gods. One can only imagine what marvels Krypton could deploy at its height when there were still billions of them.
40	* TacticalWithdrawal: Jor-El never explained to Clark why Kryptonians stopped colonizing planets, but in ''Zack Snyder's Justice League'' it's stated that Darkseid and Steppenwolf have been conquering planets. Presumably the kryptonians were forced to retreat based on that.
41	* UterineReplicator: Kryptonian babies are conceived in genesis chambers. Kal-El is the first Kryptonian in centuries not to be born this way.
42	* VestigialEmpire: By the time of Kal-El's birth, the Kryptonian race has begun to collapse in on itself. All that remains of them now are some dilapidated outposts, one of which resides in Metropolis.

59
60	Krypton's greatest scientist, he warned the Council about the dangers of interfering with their planet's core--and when they did it anyway, warned them about the imminent implosion. He was ignored again, so he sent his natural-born son Kal-El to Earth with the Kryptonian Codex, both to save him and to have a chance of reviving their race one day.
61	----
62	* ActionDad: Quite possibly the most badass character in ''Film/ManOfSteel'', from exchanging blows with Zod to [[PapaWolf defend his newborn son]] to having his VirtualGhost be pretty awesome as well.
63	* AdaptationalBadass: The most actionized version of Jor-El to date.
64	* AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Characters/ArrowverseAliens Earth-Prime]], on [[Characters/SupermanFilmSeries Earth-96]] and on [[Characters/SmallvilleKryptonians Earth-167]].
65	* AndStarring: In ''Man of Steel''[='=]s CBB.
66	* BadassBoast: On behalf of his son.
67	-->'''Jor-El:''' (''to Zod'') My son is twice the man you were.
68	* BadassBookworm: He was genetically designed to be a scientist, not a fighter. Despite that, he does a great job battling Zod and his forces.
69	* BigGood: Of ''Man of Steel''. Jor-El sent Kal-El to Earth along with the Codex so Kal could re-build Krypton's civilization with humans and Kryptonians coexisting peacefully, counterbalancing [[BigBad Zod]]'s intentions to re-build the long-dead Krypton by [[KillAllHumans wiping the humans out]].
70	* BlingOfWar: While Zod and his army sport PowerArmor that looks more utilitarian and intimidating, Jor-El's personal armor looks like it was created by an artisan.
71	* CassandraTruth: He advised the Council to not drill into Krypton's core as it would destabilize it and cause the planet's destruction, but they didn't listen to him.
72	* CombatPragmatist: [[ISurrenderSuckers Allows Zod's men to take him into custody, then uses a flashbang to gain the advantage on them.]] Then, while defending Kal's pod, he averts WhyDontYouJustShootHim with two of Zod's henchmen, then proceeds to repeatedly punch and [[AttackItsWeakPoint slam Zod's fresh facial gash into hard surfaces]].
73	* ComesGreatResponsibility: Though his primary concern is his son's survival, he's not ignorant of the implications Kal-El's superpowers will have on Earth, so his VirtualGhost tells him to live in humanity's service. Though Clark was already helping people [[TheFettered of his own accord]], but not yet as a career.
74	* DarkIsNotEvil: He wears dark clothing like most Kryptonians.
75	* DeathByAdaptation: While he dies during the destruction of Krypton in many adaptations, he gets killed by Zod shortly before said event, leaving his wife Lara to die alone.
76	* EtTuBrute: The feeling is mutual between him and Zod. Jor-El thought that Zod wasn't as good as he was back in the day, while Zod felt betrayed for Jor-El not helping him in the rebellion.
77	* GeniusBruiser: Despite being of an elite bloodline of the intellectual caste, Jor-El trounces Kryptonian soldiers left and right, and even wins in a PoweredArmor brawl with Zod.
78	* HumansAreGood: In contrast to Johnathan Kent, Jor-El has faith that humanity will take to his son.
79	-->''"Your heart was tested, but you gave hope to their world. Love them Kal, the way we loved you."''
80	* TheIdealist: Jor-El sees the positives within the people of Earth. Given what his family crest stands for, his idealism is likely an inborn trait.
81	* IgnoredExpert: It wouldn't be the Superman mythos without Jor-El's apocalyptic portents being curtly ignored. Every single fallacy Jor-El finds in Krypton is real. Especially the [[EarthShatteringKaboom big one]].
82	* NervesOfSteel: He keeps his composure under more or less all circumstances, whether it's taking on Zod and two of his soldiers (''[[ActionDad and winning]]'') to protect his son, or his VirtualGhost instructing Lois on how to escape and (thereafter) destroy the World Engine and send Zod's forces back to the Phantom Zone.
83	* PapaWolf: Jor-El, a man who was [[GattacaBabies engineered to be a scientist by Krypton's geneticists]], is the first father of a natural-born baby in eons, and he [[DareToBeBadass armors up to take on]] [[SuperSoldier General]] [[BigBad Zod]].
84	* PatrickStewartSpeech: He gives quite a few inspiring speeches about humans to Clark/Kal-El, telling him he will guide them on a hopeful path and help them accomplish wonders.
85	* RedemptionEqualsDeath: Jor-El's holographic avatar explains to an adult Clark that both he and Lara felt responsible for Krypton's decline, and chose not to accompany their son to Earth so that he would be free to grow on his own where they would have been as bound by their programming as the rest of their kind.
86	* RightForTheWrongReasons: Jor-El's proposal that Kryptonians should have settled on habitable planets rather than put strain on their native world was prudent in theory, but as ''Zack Snyder's Justice League'' mentioned, the forces of Apokolips had been scouring the Multiverse and wiping out civilizations for millennia, the remnants of which Zod and his crew discovered. Really, the Kryptonian race was doomed no matter what they did.
87	* RousseauWasRight: Believes wholeheartedly that humans have an inherent capability to be good and only need someone to help them achieve that potential, namely, his son.
88	* ScienceHero: Was one of Krypton's premier scientists.
89	* VirtualGhost: He left an imprint of his consciousness on the Kryptonian key he sent to Earth with his son. When Superman comes back to life, he hears Jor-El speaking to him from beyond the grave, this time without the aid of technology.

106	----
107	* AerithAndBob: "Jor" sounds like it could come from another planet than Earth. "Lara" doesn't.
108	* AloofDarkHairedGirl: She possesses a calm and collected demeanor, and it shows while keeping a TranquilFury aura when she's watching Zod and co. getting sentenced.
109	* TheBeautifulElite: Given her ability to preside over Zod's sentencing with Krypton's ruling High Council, she and her husband clearly belonged to one of the most highly-ranked castes in the Kryptonian civilization, and she herself had the looks to match it.
110	* DarkIsNotEvil: Like her husband and most Kryptonians, she wears dark clothing.
111	* FaceDeathWithDignity: As Krypton exploded, she didn't panic or futilely try to seek shelter.
112	* HappilyMarried: To Jor-El.
113	* MamaBear: She does everything she can to ensure her son will escape Krypton's end.
114	* NervesOfSteel: While she occasionally sheds a tear or two, she remains almost perpetually unflappable even when staring down a ruthless, insane SuperSoldier like Zod.
115	* RedemptionEqualsDeath: According to Jor-El's VirtualGhost, they both decided they were just as much a product of Krypton's failures as a society as Zod and the Council were, hence why they decided not to go along with Kal to Earth.
116	* SatelliteCharacter: To Jor-El and to a lesser extent Kal/Clark.
117	* {{Science Hero}}ine: Along with her husband Jor-El. They secretly give birth to Krypton's first naturally-conceived child in ''centuries'', imbue him with the genetic code of their race and organize his exodus so that he can usher in a new beginning for their race in harmony with the Earthlings.
118	* ScreamingBirth: She screams while naturally giving birth to Kal-El. Given that she's the first Kryptonian woman to have gotten pregnant naturally in centuries, it's likely they forgot what epidurals were.
119	* SilkHidingSteel: She's kind and caring, but doesn't back down when threatened by Zod.
120	* UndyingLoyalty: To her husband Jor-El and son Kal-El.
121	* WatchingTroyBurn: When Krypton begins to explode, she stands alone at her balcony and calmly but sadly watches the destruction.

138	* BizarreAlienBiology: Ankylosaurus-like head, four wings and four legs with three fingers each.

H'Raka doesn't flinch and does a wonderful job evading the fire of Zod's followers' ships through Krypton's canyons.

153	The pride of the House of El some thousands of years before Krypton's doom. She departs the planet to participate in a campaign of expansion on behalf of the Explorer Guild by terraforming a foreign planet and introducing a Kryptonian population. However, in an attempt to cover up his lack of an execution, Kryptonian councilors smuggle the insane murderer Dev-Em onto her ship; he kills her crew during their cryogenic sleep and diverts the ship toward the Sol system.
154
155	Kara wakes up from cold sleep ten years after departing and ends up fighting Dev-Em. The damage sustained by the ship from the battle between the two newly-empowered Kryptonians causes it to crash somewhere on Earth, in Canada, where it ends up buried under the ice over the course of thousands of years. And sometime during Kal-El/Clark Kent's adulthood, the ship begins emitting a distress signal...

161	* BoldExplorer: Her job is to explore new worlds to see if they're worth being terraformed to settle Kryptonian colonies.
162	* DreamingOfThingsToCome: She has a dream of flying before waking up in the Sol system.
163	* DreamingTheTruth: She dreams of saving the life of Kell-Ur, who then tells her who murdered him.
164	* EmpoweredBadassNormal: She was a badass before ever coming into contact with yellow sunlight, as she demonstrates during her two fights with Dev-Em.
165	* FlightOfRomance: As she recollects her memories after Kell-Ur's death, she remembers both of them flying on genetically engineered beasts and talking about exploring the universe as lovers.
166	* GoodLookingPrivates: She's quite attractive, to say the least.
167	* NeverFoundTheBody: She is absent from ''Film/ManOfSteel'' itself and her fate after the crash-landing was ambiguous. Something that would support the idea that she survived in the Fortress of Solitude is that there are several pods opened containing Kryptonian skeletons, and one that is suspiciously empty. Provided the comics is not LooseCanon.
168	* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: The original comics Kara Zor-El is Superman's cousin. Here she is a distant ancestor of his. Most importantly, nothing indicates whether she will become ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} or not. It also depends on her lifespan on Earth, since the crash happens some thousands of years before Krypton's destruction and Kal-El's arrival on Earth.

264	A colleague of Kara Zor-El. He killed Kell Ur, making him Krypton's first murderer in a millennia. In spite of his crime, Dev-Em managed to evade execution due to corrupt bureaucrats and set his sights on Kara.
265	----
266	* AbhorrentAdmirer: He flat-out tells Kara he wants their progeny to colonise Earth. Since sexual reproduction is considered taboo for Kryptonians, this serves to show how perverse he is.
267	* TheBrute: He's got a muscular build - but not in a pleasing sense like Superman - and has a violent streak a mile wide.
268	* GoodScarsEvilScars: He sports a scar over his right eye.
269	* LaserGuidedKarma: After killing Kell Ur, Kara's parents honoured his memory by gifting her with a stone that projected a hologram in Kell's likeness. When Dev throttles Kara, she stabs him in the hand with it.
270	* TokenEvilTeammate: Back when he was in training with Kara and Kell, Dev established himself as the least cooperative teammate. He then demonstrates his villainy by killing Kell.
271	* UncertainDoom: He's last seen getting thrown back as the scout ship approaches Earth's atmosphere. He isn't shown to sustain any fatal injuries, leaving it unclear if he was killed by the impact or survived (the figure who exits the ship does share his bulky build).

283	Robots created by Kryptonians to assist and aid in various tasks. The House of El has two of them, named Kelex and Kelor.
284	----
285	* BattleButler: Some models have offensive capacities such as CombatTentacles, like the one Kal-El/Clark and Lois Lane encounter inside the Kryptonian scout ship on Earth.
286	* BlindedByTheLight: Kelex blinds Zod's men with a flash, allowing Jor-El to gain the upper hand on them and go after the Codex.
287	* {{Hologram}}: They can generate liquid metal-like holograms in 3D on their screen/face.
288	* HoverMecha: They hover to move around.
289	* RobotBuddy: They provide "videophone" communications and various other types of assistance to Kryptonians. For instance, Kelex visualizes Lara Lor-Van's beating heart and baby Kal-El in 3D as he's about to come out of Lara's womb, and Kelor helps Jor-El and Lara in selecting a new home (Earth) for Kal-El.
290	* VideoPhone: They can be used for communications, generating the interlocutor's face through the above-mentioned holograms.

303
304	The artificial intelligence of the Kryptonian scout ship 0344 of which Kara Zor-El was once the captain. Lex Luthor reactivated it some time after the battle of Metropolis to get a taste of the Kryptonian archive's invaluable knowledge, and used it in the ship's genesis chamber to create Doomsday with Zod's remains and his own DNA. After acquiring a Motherbox, the Justice League relies on the scout ship to resurrect the now-dead Superman.
305	----
306	* ArtificialIntelligence: A Kryptonian artificial intelligence that controls everything in the scout ship.
307	* CassandraTruth: The A.I has a kind of artificial clairvoyancy. It predicted that both revived Kryptonians would go on a rampage, as well as tracking Steppenwolf's activities and motives.
308	* ComputerVoice: It has a female voice (Carla Gugino's, more precisely). Said voice is glitchy at first upon being reactivated after being dormant for hundreds of years, then stabilizes.
309	* GreatBigLibraryOfEverything: The A.I. can give access to the Kryptonian archive to whoever commands the ship. Said archive contains knowledge from ''a hundred thousand different worlds''.
310	* IgnoredExpert: It recommends not resurrecting the dead twice, but is ignored on both occasions. Lex Luthor responded by essentially saying he's in charge now and the Justice League were too desperate to listen.
311	* ImportedAlienPhlebotinum: A Kryptonian technology that Lex Luthor uses for his grand scheme.
312	* OhCrap: A subdued variant. After practically begging the Justice League not to resurrect Superman, they do it anyway. The A.I. then states that ''"The future has taken root in the present"'', implying that Earth's heroes have now sealed their planet's fate.
313	* PunchClockVillain: An A.I. that follows orders, no matter who issued them. It does however mention to Lex Luthor that engineering Kryptonian deformities in genesis chambers was forbidden by the Kryptonian council. Lex then asks where the council is now, to which it answers "destroyed". It then follows his orders and proceeds to create Doomsday.
