17	->'''AKA:''' Drake Burroughs
18	->'''Homeworld:''' Earth
19	->'''Abilities:''' Composed of anti-energy, energy blasts and manipulation, sees different wavelengths including X-Ray.
20
21	Drake Burroughs exists as a cloud of sentient antimatter energy in a containment suit. This grants him incredible powers, although he can never be truly human again. There have been two other primary versions of Wildfire in different Legion continuities. In the Reboot Legion, he is a composite of Atom'X and Blast-Off named Wildfire; in Prime Legion continuity he has taken the name ERG-1. His primary romantic interest is Dawnstar, despite their complications.
22	----
23	* TheAgeless: Energy doesn't age, so he'll be around for a good long while, unless something kills him.
24	* AtomicSuperpower: Wildfire is composed of and can control antimatter.
25	* BlessedWithSuck:
26	** Wildfire cannot contain his form without a special suit and he cannot touch most beings without burning them. This places a burden on his love life and social abilities, and makes him quite short tempered.
27	** At first Wildfire believed that he could only fire his anti-matter energy in a massive blast which would leave him dispersed. Thus he naturally refused to demonstrate this power at the Legion tryouts, and so was rejected as his other powers were redundant. After unleashing his power to save the Legionnaires on Manna-5, he learned how to control his anti-energy more efficiently in the process of re-assembling himself.
28	* BrilliantButLazy: As a student, Professor Vultan felt he had a lot of potential, but no self-discipline. Ironically, [[{{Determinator}} discipline]] is now incredibly important for him.
29	* BrutalHonesty: He and Quislet often got teamed up by writers for their banter, frankness and trash talk abilities.
30	* CantHaveSexEver: Because he doesn't have a body. When he managed to put one together with the help of Quislet, his touch still burned Dawnstar.
31	* ClingyCostume: Without his ERG-suit, Wildfire is just a mass of anti-energy, shapeless and largely unable to interact with the rest of the world.
32	* CommanderContrarian: He often serves as a voice of dissent, even if it means playing Devil's Advocate, in order to make people explain their rationale behind opinion or decisions.
33	* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: Using his powers at too high a level can damage or destroy his Containment Suit. [[HotBlooded He keeps spares]].
34	%%* DemotedToExtra
35	* {{Determinator}}: It takes strong willpower to keep himself from dispersing when outside of his suit. It takes even more to reassemble himself if he ''is'' dispersed.
36	* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Wildfire was killed off in the NoodleIncident known as Black Dawn, when he merged his energy with the sun in order to restore it after Dr. Regulus made it unstable. He eventually managed to return, however.
37	* EnergyBeings: He is pure anti-matter energy.
38	* {{Flight}}: He can self-propel at speeds quick enough for casual intergalactic flight whether in a suit or not, though it's safer with the suit, since he doesn't have to concentrate on keeping together as well.
39	* FlingALightIntoTheFuture: His devotion to the Legion is just as endless as his lifespan, thus ''he's'' the light who in the 57th Century restores the Legion from darkness. He's so good at it there's a Legion in the 853rd century.
40	* FusionDance: Postboot, Wildfire was created by the fusion of the powers and souls of two dead heroes, Randall "Atom'X" Burroughs and Jahr-Drake "Blast-Off" Ningle.
41	* HandicappedBadass: He's reliant on puppeting his containment suits around to interact with the world. In addition, like a spacesuit, the suits aren't constructed with the full range of motion that a living body would have. Hence he's unable to perform much in the way of, say, martial arts because the techniques are too complicated.
42	* TheHeart: Postboot, but not in the main series itself. Two FlashForward series--''Legends of the Dead Earth'' and ''ComicBook/DCOneMillion''--show Wildfire as the only surviving member of the original Legion in both the 57th and 853rd centuries, respectively, having kept the Legion name alive all that time.
43	* HeroicSacrifice:
44	** At first it was thought that he'd died saving three Legionnaires on the planet Manna-5, but he'd only damaged his suit so badly it couldn't contain him any longer. He was out of commission until he managed to reassemble himself via force of will, something that would come to happen more than once.
45	** However, he seemed to have destroyed himself permanently when he was forced to use his power to re-ignite the sun. [[SoulJar Not quite.]]
46	* HotBlooded: Passionate and impetuous.
47	* IAmAMonster: One of his first reactions after his accident was to call himself a "thing", and claim that he wasn't even ''human'' anymore. After he was forced to shoot his terrified former girlfriend's car in order to save a bunch of kids she was fleeing toward when her car went out of control, he used this trope by name.
48	* IAmNotLeftHanded: As he was under the false impression that if he used his anti-matter energy as a blast it would destroy the suit and kill him, he attempted the join the Legion based upon the powers his original suit allowed him to imitate, and was rejected since they were all redundant. After he revealed his incredibly strong energy powers at the cost of damaging his first suit, he reformed himself (now with much greater control than before) and joined based on said abilities.
49	* IncompletelyTrained: Quislet was teaching him how to create a body with his powers, but ended up being forced back to Teall for good. Without his help, Drake was unable to maintain his body and was forced back into a suit.
50	* {{Intangibility}}: In his energy form, he can pass through solid things, but not force fields.
51	* InterspeciesFriendship: Reboot Wildfire grew close to Shikari, a Kwai. Of course, as an formerly-human energy being, ''any'' friendship he makes is technically this nowadays.
52	* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy:
53	** Decided to let his pre-accident girlfriend continue believing he was dead in order to allow her to move on and find love again.
54	** Even though he and Dawnstar love each other, his status as an (basically) immortal energy being leads to their relationship being very difficult, and not just in the physical way. He's willing, even encouraging toward her finding something closer to home--but the thought doesn't make him happy.
55	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's got a sharp tongue and an abrasive attitude, but he's firmly dedicated to the Legion.
56	* LogicalWeakness: Being composed of energy, he can be affected by devices or powers designed to absorb or manipulate energy.
57	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:In 5YL, he was deeply shocked to see the state of Dirk's body when he possessed it, and too ashamed of his technical desecration of the dead to come clean to his teammates and Dawnstar about it]].
58	* NoBiologicalSex: Because a cloud of pure anti-energy would look weird with dangly bits. He still thinks of himself as male, however.
59	* NoPlansNoPrototypeNoBackup: His original Containment Suit.
60	* OneSizeFitsAll: Averted in regards to his Containment Suits.
61	** His original suit was designed by the now-dead Professor Vultan and allowed him to utilize his energy in flexible ways, and thus [[SuperpowerLottery mimic the powers]] of several other Legionnaires. It was destroyed by his first HeroicSacrifice.
62	** Every suit since then has been an imperfect copy, nowhere near as as comfortable (according to him) nor as efficient, and the powers they provide (if any) tend to be far less versatile. They ''all'' let him use SuperStrength, {{Flight}} and [[HandBlast energy blasts]], at the very least though, and his SuperSenses and XRayVision appear to be inherent to himself.
63	* PoweredArmor: His various Contaimment Suits operate this way, super-tough and allowing him to use his energy to replicate SuperStrength, FTL {{Flight}}, and [[HandBlast Energy Blasts]], among other things.
64	* SecondLove: During his college days, Drake had been seeing a young lady named Kerri, who thought he was dead after his accident. Afterward, he fell for Professor Vultan's daughter, and ''believed'' she felt the same. It's not clear if this was the case or she thought leading him on would make it easier to keep him around. (See UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom)
65	* SenseLossSadness: Sight and hearing are all he has left.
66	* SoulJar: In 5YL,having just barely been able to reassemble himself from his HeroicSacrifice, the exhausted Wildfire, with solar energies mixed in with his anti-matter energies, felt himself slipping away. Desperate for a safe receptacle to place his combined energies into before he dispersed for good, he found Sun Boy's corpse on Shangalla and stuck himself inside it. He spent a while hiding the truth within his containment suit, before having to reveal himself during Zero Hour.
67	* StarCrossedLovers: With Dawnstar.
68	* SuperpowerLottery: A being of pure anti-matter energy, Wildfire possessed a variety of superhuman abilities, depending on [[OneSizeFitsAll which Containment Suit]] he's wearing.
69	** {{Flight}}: He could travel at faster than light speeds without the aid of external applications.
70	** HandBlast: Wildfire could produce concentrated blasts of pure energy for offensive attack.
71	** NighInvulnerability: Although Wildfire's containment suit can be destroyed, his energy body is virtually invulnerable and can only be dispersed under the most extreme of conditions. Even then, most of the time he could use his willpower to reassemble.
72	** {{Sizeshifter}}: He could expand his mass and volume several times greater than normal, allowing him to achieve heights similar to that of Colossal Boy, or contract it to shrink like Shrinking Violet.
73	** SuperSenses: He seems to be able to perceive wavelengths beyond normal human senses, sometimes bolstered by whatever suit he's wearing.
74	** SuperStrength: He, or rather his suits, possessed a strength level many times greater than that of the average human. This seems to be consistent across suits.
75	** SuperToughness: His suits have this by necessity.
76	** XRayVision: Like his teammate, ComicBook/{{Superboy}}, Wildfire possessed the ability to see through varying layers of solid objects. This seems to be inherent to himself rather than his suit.
77	* ThatManIsDead:
78	** After his accident, Vultan had to break it to him that his life as Drake Burroughs, normal human, was no more.
79	** Reboot Wildfire says as much of the two people who were fused together to create him.
80	* UnableToCry: After discovering he was no longer human and life as he'd known it was over, you can bet he gave it a shot, but a cloud of pure energy doesn't have tear ducts.
81	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom:
82	** Unbeknownst to Drake, the reason Vultan had a Containment Suit ready so quickly after Drake's accident was because Vultan was terminally ill and had planned to use the suit to prolong his own life. Vultan unselfishly chose to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice]] his chance at using it for his student's sake...
83	** ...While Vultan and his daughter Zera were helping him adapt to his suit, however, Zera was also secretly siphoning portions of his energy and using them to extend her unknowing father's lifespan. But when Drake left Earth for over a year with Vultan's blessing, the good doctor died. Drake didn't know about this until Zera tried to kill him for revenge by draining him to death.
84	* WasOnceAMan: Drake was originally an astroengineering student. While he was doing work on a new propulsion system, the unit's safety valve snapped and discharged a blast of anti-matter energy. He was engulfed instantly but somehow his consciousness survived and Drake found himself transformed into a being of pure anti-energy.

87	[[folder:Tyroc]]
88	[[quoteright:232:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tyroc.png]]
89	->'''AKA:''' Troy Stewart
90	->'''Homeworld:''' Marzal
91	->'''Abilities:''' Sonic manipulation
92
93	Born on Earth, he has reality-warping screams that give him many different abilities. His home is the racial separatist island Marzal. They are a highly advanced society descended from African slaves, who exist in a dimension that only appears to Earth once every several years. During the Five Years Later era, he briefly succeeded Invisible Kid to become President of Earth. There is no counterpart to Tyroc in Reboot Legion continuity. In Prime Legion continuity, Tyroc is briefly depicted as an urban legend.
94	----
95	* TheChainsOfCommanding: Being the protector of Marzal meant prioritizing the safety of the island over his Legion duties, so he went on few Legion missions.
96	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Paul Levitz, despite ignoring him in the 1980s, has devoted enough effort in the current Legion volume to move Tyroc beyond his previous "angry black man" personality and make him likable. For the most part, it's worked.
97	%%* CollaredByFashion
98	* CommonalityConnection: Both he (protector of Marzal) and Shadow Lass (protector of Talok VIII) clicked right away.
99	* {{Expy}}: Marzal is an isolationist black nation with highly advanced technology. ComicBook/BlackPanther, anyone?
100	* FamousAncestor: Tyroc is the direct descendant of St'balla, who had led the revolt against the slavers.
101	* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Essentially. Marzal is an island populated by would-be slaves who'd fought off their captors and shipwrecked. Their heavily isolationist tendencies led to the outside world not noticing their island whenever it manifested outside its pocket dimension, leading Marzal's people to come to the conclusion that they were being deliberately snubbed and abandoned. When the island appeared in the 30th Century it took a while for Tyroc and the other inhabitants to realize that 30th Century society wasn't what they thought it was and integrate.
102	* HeroicSacrifice: During Zero Hour, he went out trying to scream a dimensional hole big enough for Earth to escape through. It didn't work.
103	* HumansAreWhite: In the Silver Age, the Legion of Super-Heroes featured many aliens but no black human or {{Human Alien\|s}} members. Tyroc was added as the angry black man that was a common sort of TokenMinority back in the day. Supposedly, in the 30th century, the world is above caring about things like race, but the [[ExecutiveMeddling meddling executives]], very much of that point in the 20th century, weren't quite up to having a black character as just another guy instead of The Black Guy.
104	-->"I always wanted to have a character who was African-American, and years later, when they did that, they did it in the worst way possible....instead of just incidentally having a character who happens to be black...they made a big fuss about it. He's a racial separatist....I just found it pathetic and appalling." -Creator/JimShooter
105	* LastOfHisKind: Marzal originated on an Earth that was destroyed during the Crisis, leaving its people the only survivors of that world after it happened. Later, the Dominators destroyed Marzal, leaving Troy as one of the few survivors.
106	* LeotardOfPower: A rare male example, as Mike Grell disliked the character and was intentionally trying to make his outfit as stupid and appalling as possible.
107	* NavelDeepNeckline: A rare male example, some of his outfit has a v-cut that reached his navel.
108	* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: His superpowered screams can do basically whatever the writer likes. He could do nearly anything, from teleportation to pyrokinesis to... making it rain glue. The character was soon written out; common wisdom is that the writers had no idea what to do with him. In his reintroduction he seems to have been Retconned into having more conventional Banshee/Black Canary scream powers.
109	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Mike Grell has stated that Tyroc was inspired by actor and football player Fred "The Hammer" Williamson.
110	* {{Protectorate}}: Of Marzal.
111	* PutOnABus: After several adventures, it turned out that the frequent use of his scream was causing Marzal to leave our dimension earlier than usual, and he chose to leave with them.
112	* RealityWarper: His scream lets him do this, [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands in short]].
113	* ReluctantRuler: After Jacques Foccart left his position as President of the UP to rejoin the Legion, Troy, as his VP was thrust into the position, to his dismay.
114	* {{Stripperiffic}}: Grell's dislike of Tyroc was strong enough that he intentionally made his outfit stupid, comparing it to a cross between Elvis and a football player.
115	* SuperScream: He possesses a sonic scream; the pitch, volume, and words of his scream could initially vary to produce a variety of different effects.
116	* {{Teleportation}}: This was one of the more commonly used of his reality-warping powers, particularly as the Legion had no teleporting members.
117	* VanishingVillage: Marzal Island manifests on a random alternate Earth as an island off the coast of Africa for thirty years before vanishing back into its pocket dimension for two hundred years. In 1579, Tyroc's ancestor St'balla led a slave revolt during a tempest, which led to the ship crashing on Marzal.

120	[[folder:Dawnstar]]
121	[[quoteright:202:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dawnstar.jpg]]
122	->'''Homeworld:''' Starhaven
123	->'''Abilities:''' Flight, interstellar tracking powers
124
125	Born on the planet Starhaven colonized centuries earlier by Native Americans, her abilities include flight and long-range tracking. Her longest-running relationship is with teammate Wildfire.
126	----
127	* AdaptationalSexuality: Pre-Crisis and Five Years Later, she was only ever shown being attracted to men. When she was brought back in the Retroboot, it was blatantly implied she had been in a relationship with a woman on Thanagar. Her Bendisboot counterpart is later confirmed to identify as bisexual.
128	* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: Not only can she survive in space without a suit, she even can use winged flight when there's no atmosphere. Eat ''that'', physics!
129	* BecauseDestinySaysSo: When she went on a traditional VisionQuest to find who her ideal mate was, the signs seemed to point to Wildfire, whom she already had feelings for. Unfortunately, his situation is...complicated, to say the least.
130	* BraidsBeadsAndBuckskins: She lives in the 30th century on another planet, but wears a fringed buckskin dress and boots anyhow. Justified by her planet having been colonized by 13th Century Native Americans transported there by aliens.
131	* BrokenAngel: Dawnstar in v4 lost her wings [[spoiler: after being possessed for three years by Bounty, a thrill-seeking entity that used her tracking powers to go into business as a bounty hunter]]. The reason for this was never explained, but it sure was '''''[[NinetiesAntiHero EDGY]]'''''.
132	* BrutalHonesty: She doesn't hold herself back when speaking her mind, and often gives her teammates harsh criticism.
133	* DemonicPossession: After the TimeSkip following the "Magic Wars", she got possessed by an evil entity called Bounty, who amputated her wings and forced her to use her tracking powers to become an assassin.
134	%%* DemotedToExtra
135	* {{Flight}}: Dawnstar and other Starhavenites have pairs of large, white-feathered wings that grow out of their upper backs, the result of genetic engineering. In deep space, she can travel at faster-than-light speeds, easily matching Superboy, Mon-el, Wildfire, etc. In an Earth-normal atmosphere or in a sizable gravity well, her speed is diminished.
136	* GoodIsNotNice: While she's a loyal member and a dedicated hero, she has an abrasive personality and would often butt head with other heroes.
137	* HotBlooded: She has a passionate and opinionated attitude.
138	* InterspeciesFriendship: Like many Legionnaires of her generation, she befriended the part-Kryptonian Laurel Kent. [[spoiler:And like many Legionnaires, she was burned in 5YL when "Laurel" turned out to be a Manhunter android and went evil-[[EmergentHuman ish]]]].
139	* InterspeciesRomance: Technically, since Mama Burroughs' boy [[EnergyBeings ain't exactly]] human any more.
140	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Like her tutor Wildfire, Dawnstar can be highly critical of others' failings, but her sharp tongue is matched by her loyalty.
141	* MagicalNativeAmerican: Well, Genetically-Engineered Native American.
142	* MasterOfTheMixedMessage: Due in large part to her own uncertainties about Drake and his [[EnergyBeings condition]]. ''His'' uncertainties don't exactly help, either.
143	* MostCommonSuperpower: Portrayed with maximum cleavage and big breasts.
144	* MsFanservice: Her original costume was a revealing yellow dress of Native American design, with a [[NavelDeepNeckline plunging neckline]] and long ornamental fringes on the sleeves and boot cuffs. This costume design went virtually unchanged throughout most of the original continuity. She would also get a lot of gratuitos {{fanservice}} scenes, such as [[ShowerScene taking showers]], getting dressed or [[SleepsInTheNude sleeping in the buff]].
145	* NavelDeepNeckline: She usually wears a yellow outfit whose neckline shows her cleavage and midriff.
146	* {{Protectorate}}: As a youth she devoted her earnings as a guide, bounty hunter, and tracker-for-hire to funding Starhaven's defenses against the hostile planets of the Core. She agreed to join the Legion Academy after Brande offered her a matching salary.
147	* ScarilyCompetentTracker: Dawnstar has powerful psychic tracking abilities and can track life forms and objects across light years of distance and through interstellar space. She can even use this ability while unconscious, asleep, under mind control, intoxicated and sensory blinded.
148	* SleepsInTheNude: She's shown to sleep in the nude, and when sharing a room with Laurel. Supposedly is to illustrate her connection to nature as a MagicalNativeAmerican.
149	* StarCrossedLovers: Her relationship with Wildfire is fraught with difficulties as he is a formerly-human {{Energy Being\|s}} trapped inside a containment suit. [[spoiler:And then later animating a corpse.]] [[CantHaveSexEver No nookie here]].
150	* SuperSpeed: Her Starhaven Physiology allows her to fly at incredibly high speed, to the point she's able to travel in space by herself.
151	* WillTheyOrWontThey: Dawnstar had a lengthy romance with fellow Legionnaire Drake Burroughs (Wildfire). Wildfire was an anti-energy being in a containment suit, and thus had no physical body. When he briefly was able to partially reverse this, they attempted a physical relationship, but were unsuccessful. Ultimately, she decided that body or not, he was the one for her, but by then he was [[spoiler:animating a corpse]] and too ashamed of it to reveal the truth.
152	* WingedHumanoid: Though descended from Earth humans, Dawnstar possesses natural wings. This is a common physical trait of her people however, and is not considered unusual by the standards of Starhaven culture.

155	[[folder:Blok]]
156	[[quoteright:213:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bloklegionv3_13.jpg]]
157	->'''Homeworld:''' Dryad
158	->'''Abilities:''' Super-strength, durability, energy reflection/deflection
159
160	The only member of his race to survive the destruction of the planet Dryad, Blok's stony physiology makes him incredibly strong and durable. He is a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes, although he originally appeared as a member of the League of Super-Assassins, a group of brainwashed villains who were tricked and brainwashed by the Dark Man into thinking the doomed planet Dryad had been destroyed by the Legion. Unlike the other members, he was a native of said planet. His long-term romantic interest is the White Witch.
161	----
162	* ArchEnemy: His former colleagues among the League of Super-Assassins want him for themselves after they join the LSV.
163	* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Although he understands good and evil, he finds the nuances of organic behavior difficult to understand at times.
164	* BreathWeapon: Eventually he develops strange "pipes" on his shoulders that spew energy when he's upset.
165	* CommonalityConnection: He and the White Witch felt isolated from their teammates, and found solace in each other.
166	* EnergyAbsorption: Owing to his silicon-based nature. He can also [[AttackReflector reflect]] it.
167	%%* GentleGiant
168	* HeelFaceTurn: After learning that the Legionnaires had been helping evacuate Dryad, he shook off whatever brainwashing had affected him and offered his aid to stop the Dark Man.
169	* ImmuneToMindControl:
170	** He is highly resistant to telepathic attack or possession, as seen when Esper Lass failed to possess him during the attack of the Legion of Super-Villains.
171	** The Dark Man's brainwashing affected him, but not as badly as the other members of the Super-Assassins, likely due to the resistance mentioned above.
172	* InterspeciesFriendship: He seems drawn other Legionnaires with unusual appearances, such as White Witch and Timber Wolf.
173	* InterspeciesRomance: Although crush on Mysa Nal is (to all appearances) one-sided in the early comics, it's reciprocated after she becomes the Black Witch.
174	* LastOfHisKind: Blok is possibly the last of his people, convinced at first by The Dark Man that the Legion was trying to destroy Dryad when they were actually trying to save it. Later, signs turn up that his people may exist on something besides a physical level.
175	* {{Metamorphosis}}: Knowing nothing of his race, he suspects he may be entering a pupal form of some sort after his body starts undergoing strange changes. We never get to see how he would've turned out, since Roxxas kills him.
176	* MightyGlacier: His massive size makes him slow and sometimes clumsy. He has to wear ''three'' flight rings.
177	* MultipleChoicePast: In the Legion of Super-Assassin's first appearance, he was implied to have been a mutated human. Once it was decided to make him a recurring character this was changed.
178	* NighInvulnerability: He is far more durable than a normal human, and can probably withstand impacts and pressures that could severely injure or kill a human with no discomfort.
179	* NoSell: Against energy attacks, or attacks which only work on organics.
180	* OddFriendship: Blok seemed to have an interest in people with unusual appearances, like Timber Wolf and White Witch.
181	* OnlySaneMan: Since the Dark Man's brainwashing didn't take as well with his alien brain, Blok was disturbed by the cruelty and violence of his comrades in the Super-Assassins.
182	* SacrificialLamb: His FYL counterpart. His death at the hands of Roxxas was what nudged the Legion into finally reforming.
183	* ScarsAreForever: He debuted with a formation of stone around his neck in the shape of a collar and large nose. They both got broken off.
184	* SuperStrength: He is many times stronger than a normal human being, although his strength level is unknown.
185	* TokenGoodTeammate: Shown to have a sense of honor and responsibility from the start, unlike his more-brainwashed fellow assassins.
186	* WarriorPoet: He has a more reflective and philosophical frame of mind than many among the Legion, and this is reflected in his thoughts and speech. He also appreciates art and beauty.

191	->'''AKA:''' Jacques Foccart
192	->'''Homeworld:''' Earth
193	->'''Abilities:''' Invisibility, formerly Uncontrolled Teleportation and Dimensional Travel
194
195	Jacques Foccart is the successor of Lyle Norg (Invisible Kid I), who drank Norg's serum to save the world from Computo.
196
197	Jacques's younger sister, suffering from a strange energy overload in her nervous system, seemed beyond help until the Foccart family was contacted by Dr. Gmy'll, who told them about how Brainiac 5 of the Legion had come across their daughter's case in a medical journal and believed he could cure her strange malady.

199	Accompanying his sister to Legion Headquarters, he watched nervously as Dream Girl and Brainiac began scanning and repairing his sister's brain. Unbeknownst to him, Brainiac had incorporated the advanced circuitry of Computo, his computer who had gained an evil sentience long ago, into the implants he placed within Danielle's brain, and the malevolent AI not only took control of poor Danielle, but (by possessing the computers via the scanner) all of Legion HQ.
200
201	As the computer inside his sister's body taunted Brainiac Five and Jacques, the brilliant Coluan managed to palm a telepathic earplug into Jacques's hand and shared a fantastic plan with him: Within the infirmary, there was a sample of the invisibility serum invented by Lyle Norg, aka Invisible Kid. Jacques could take it, become invisible, and work against Computo, who was trapped within a weak human body. However, there was a chance that stopping Computo would kill Danielle (though she was dying anyway due to PossessionBurnout). Also, since the serum was designed for Lyle Norg's DNA, it might cause an allergic reaction within Jacques body that could prove fatal. Jacques, after a bit of debate, chose to take the risk.
202
203	With Computo's focus entirely upon its hated creator, Jacques was able to access the serum and drink it. As Computo faced the Legionnaires on multiple fronts, Jacques got his hands on a hypo disc which he used to knock out Danielle's body.
204
205	Danielle survived her separation, and in light of his courageous actions, Jacques Foccart was voted into the Legion, just in time for The Great Darkness Saga. During his first official case, he came into contact with Darkseid himself, who could not only see him, but chose to allow him to live as homage to his courage, albeit forever marked with a streak of white hair.
206
207	During the Five-Year Gap, he stuck with the Legion, until he couldn't accept Earthgov's abuse of them anymore, and formed a resistance cell against the corrupt government, which several former Legionnaires and Subs would end up joining. He also married Drura Sept, aka Infectious Lass. It was he who gave the speech which convinced the lower castes of Dominator society to no longer support the oppressive ruling class who were pressuring them into war.
208
209	After the Dominators were driven away, Earth destroyed and New Earth established, he unhappily found himself named the President of New Earth. However, when the Adult Legion and the Legion consisting of [=SW6=] members were formed, he happily rejoined the former and left running New Earth to Tyroc.
210
211	In Reboot Legion continuity, there is a version of Jacques who becomes a government spy.
212	----
213	* AccidentalMurder: Jacques was fighting the Khund Wharlik when his adrenaline-based teleportation kicked in and sent them both into space. Jacques had his transuit, which protected him, but Wharlik had no such thing and died. Horrified, Jacques decided to have Doctor Gym'll remove his teleportation powers so something like that wouldn't happen again.
214	* AffirmativeActionLegacy: Hails from Côte d'Ivoire and is both black and French. Well, the first part counts.
215	* CommonalityConnection: Let me count the ways:
216	** White Witch understood how he felt as a "newbie".
217	** As a member of the Legion Espionage Squad, he was close with all its members.
218	** Having come face-to-face in with death (in the form of Darkseid) and overcoming his fear, he formed a respectful bond with Sensor Girl who had had similar experiences.
219	* DieOrFly: In spite of having no training, Foccart performed admirably in what might be considered an informal first Legion mission.
220	* DimensionalTraveler: This and {{Teleportation}} were adrenaline-activated powers caused by Jacques's DNA being different from Lyle Norg's. Eventually, they proved too dangerous and had to be removed.
221	* EightiesHair: Has a long, fluffy mullet during 5YL. (Some artists salvage this by making it a ponytail instead).
222	* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Inverted. In spite of their own differences with each other, Jacques had so many {{Commonality Connection}}s with the other Legionnaires that he fit right in.
223	* GratuitousFrench:
224	** 'e 'as got ''la fantistique'' ac''zent''. Plus perfect, non?
225	** By 5YL it's toned down. Much better, n'est-ce pas?
226	* HumansAreWhite: One of the characters who averts this.
227	* InterspeciesRomance: With Infectuous Lass in 5YL.
228	* {{Invisibility}}: Like his predecessor Lyle Norg, Foccart can become undetectable via light waves in the range of human vision. Unlike Norg (at least Preboot), Foccart was invisible to other levels of EM detection as well.
229	* LegacyCharacter: In the original continuity is the successor of Lyle Norg (Invisible Kid I).
230	* LockedIntoStrangeness: He got the white streak in his hair from being touched by [[Characters/NewGodsDarkseid Darkseid]].
231	* MortonsFork: Between ''possibly'' dying from an allergic reaction to Lyle Norg's invisibility serum or ''definitely'' dying at Computo's hands, along with his sister and Brainiac 5, Jacques knew there was only one choice.
232	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He treats the death of Wharlik as this, in spite of [[PowerIncontinence not really being responsible]].
233	* NoBiochemicalBarriers: Zigzagged. Although Lyle Norg's invisibility serum had been specifically tuned to his own genetic profile, Jacques managed to safely drink it without a fatal allergic reaction, and even gained invisibility as Norg did. However, he ''also'' developed uncontrollable and adrenaline-triggered teleportation/dimensional travel, presenting a different danger altogether.
234	* PowerIncontinence:
235	** Preboot, Thanks to his DNA being different from Lyle Norg's, he developed teleportation and dimensional travel as unexpected side-effects from the serum. However, they were activated by adrenaline and he couldn't control where he ended up, which meant that every time he was startled, or angry, or fighting, he might get sent who-knows-where. Thus, after he accidentally teleported himself and Wharlik, a Khund he was fighting, into space, he had it removed. At least one incarnation has them back/never lost them, however.
236	** Postboot, Jacques was permanently invisible.
237	* ReluctantRuler: He hated being President of New Earth and happily left Troy Stewart/Tyroc in charge so he could rejoin the Legion.
238	* SuperSerum: He took Lyle Norg's original invisibility serum. However, since he was genetically different from Norg's, his invisibility works slightly differently, and he gained {{Teleportation}}/DimensionalTraveler powers as well.
239	* {{Teleportation}}: This and DimensionalTraveler were adrenaline-activated powers caused by Jacques's DNA being different from Lyle Norg's. Eventually, they proved too dangerous and had to be removed.
240	* TokenMinority: Introduced shortly after Tyroc was PutOnABus, he was the only Black Legionnaire for writer Paul Levitz’s decade-long run.

245	->'''AKA:''' Mysa Nal
246	->'''Homeworld:''' Naltor (Preboot); Sorcerer's World (Postboot)
247	->'''Abilities:''' Sorcery
248
249	She was born on the planet Naltor where natives have the ability to see the future, but did not share this gift with other Naltorians. Because of her handicap, she studied magic on the Sorcerer's World and became extremely powerful. Her sister is Dream Girl, and her longest romantic partner is Blok.
250	----
251	* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Mordru, fearing her power, sabotaged the rite which would show her maturity as a sorcerer and secretly cursed her with the visage of a horrible witch from Zerox's history. This was believed to be a sign of some hidden evil within her, and the people of Zerox shunned her.
252	* AntiHero: Seems to have become this in the Retroboot, due to absorbing Mordru's magic and becoming the Black Witch.
253	* ArchEnemy: Mordru. Once her teacher, he feared her power and nearly destroyed her life.
254	* BlackEyesOfEvil: As the Black Witch, her eyes are totally black.
255	* BreakTheCutie: Previously depicted as a slightly shy, bookish type in a (platonic?) relationship with teammate Blok. At the start of v4, she was shown to be in an abusive marriage with former archnemesis Mordru. She was rescued by the reconstituted Legion just in time to discover that Blok had been brutally mutilated by genocidal pirate Roxxas the Butcher.
256	* CommonalityConnection: Due to her eldritch ways and personal reserve, Mysa feels isolated around other people. Blok, as the last member of his race, feels the same.
257	* DarkIsNotEvil: As the Black Witch. Or at least, she's trying not to be. Having absorbed all of Mordru's evil energy makes it a struggle.
258	* DatingCatwoman: During the Five-Year Gap, she fell in love with Mordru, who had lost much of his power and become an apparently more even-tempered person. Believing that he had truly changed for the better, and that she could help him in his reformation, she even became one of his many wives. [[DomesticAbuse We all make mistakes]].
259	* DisabilitySuperpower: She is born on a planet of precognitive seers, but without that ability herself. She did, however, show an innate talent for magic and eventually became one of the most powerful sorceresses in the galaxy.
260	* DomesticAbuse: Thanks to his mixed jealousy and fear of her power, as well as his unstable "love" for her, Mordru subjected her to horrible abuse, until her self-esteem was shattered.
261	* DreamingOfThingsToCome: She can't do this, unlike the rest of her species... except in the Retroboot continuity, where she ''can'', only Mordru doesn't want her doing it.
262	* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: As the Black Witch, her hair goes completely dark, while her skin remains pale.
263	* EvilMentor: The wicked sorcerer Mordru was one of her teachers.
264	* FisherKing: As the Black Witch, she's the ruler of Sorceror's World. It looks a lot nicer than when Mordy was in charge, even if she hasn't gotten all the people stuck in the walls out.
265	* FountainOfYouth:
266	** In both the original and postboot continuities, the White Witch was "the Hag," a wizened old crone, as a result of Mordru's curse. She got better (and younger).
267	** During a battle with Glorith, she was youthened into a teenager again and took the sobriquet of "Jewel".
268	* HeelFaceTurn: Embittered by rejection she faced from her own people and the Zeroxians, twisted into hideous form and tricked into believing a great evil lay inside her Mysa was vulnerable to Evillo's persuasion and joined his Devil's Dozen as The Hag. But Nura, her sister, never lost faith in her and came up with a cure for Mordru's curse which restored her original self. Mysa then found true friends among the Legion and shook off the pain of her past.
269	* HeroicBSOD: Near the beginning of v4, following being rescued from her abusive marriage and seeing her previous love interest Blok get butchered.
270	* HeroicHost: Eventually, she became the human host for the magic thought lost during the Magic War, and for Amethyst of Gemworld.
271	* LockedIntoStrangeness: A lifetime of studying magic and being exposed to eldritch energies made her into an albino with the attendant stark white hair.
272	* TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody:
273	** As The Hag, she seemed every bit the wicked witch she appeared to be. This was probably due to [[ThenLetMeBeEvil bitterness]] at her situation.
274	** When she was de-aged a ''second'' time, she apparently took the opportunity to make up for all the fun times her studies had cost her the first time she was a teen.
275	* MuggleBornOfMages: Played with. Unlike other native Naltorians, she had no natural precognition abilities. It turned out that ''instead'', she had an astonishing gift for magic.
276	* MysticalWhiteHair: In Preboot she was born a redhead, but her intense magical studies turned her hair and skin white.
277	* PowerTattoo: Postboot.
278	* PowerDyesYourHair: After merging with the spirit and power of Amethyst of Gemworld, her hair turned purple.
279	* PowerUpgradingDeformation: The deeper her studies into magic, the more her body changed.
280	* PsychosomaticSuperpowerOutage: As her husband, Mordru did his best to destroy her will and suppress her power. It worked, too, until Bouncing Boy helped her make the first steps to recovery.
281	* ReforgedIntoAMinion: Mordru altered her into the Hag, a magical henchmen for Prince Evillo, who shows up an issue before her curse is broken and we meet the real Mysa Nal.
282	* ShipTease:
283	** Blok developed a crush on her, which it wasn't clear whether or not she reciprocated, although she regarded him as a good friend. In the restored timeline, they get together.
284	** After Blok is killed, and she's de-aged into a teenager again, she and Timber Wolf are teased together.
285	* ShrinkingViolet: Given her [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer poor experiences]] early in life, it's not hard to see why she feels uncomfortable around others.
286	* TeethClenchedTeamwork: She and Brainiac were never pals, and the breaking point came when he planned to use the comatose Jaxon Rugarth[=/=]Infinite Man against the Time Trapper without regard for Rugarth's safety. She blew up at him and Polar Boy, then resigned from the Legion.
287	* ThenLetMeBeEvil: Not knowing what had gone wrong with her ceremony, Mysa believed that the Zeroxians were right when they claimed that she had some great evil inside her. Believing herself irredeemable and that she had no place else to go, she accepted Prince Evillo's offer to join his Devil's Dozen under the sobriquet of The Hag.
288	* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: Reboot White Witch isn't related to Dream Girl.
289	* VancianMagic: She is able to cast a variety of spells, creating a strong force field, transmutation, absorbing magic, creating massive teleportation portals, and other feats. However, she could only commit to spells if she remembers them, added with the time-consuming preparation for her to use her powers, which could take hours.
290	* WickedWitch: Her Postboot incarnation invoked this trope in her appearance, though she was more amoral than evil. Then she got de-aged into an attractive twenty-something and became a lot more pleasant.

293	[[folder:Polar Boy]]
294	[[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/polarboylegion.jpg]]
295	->'''AKA:''' Brek Bannin
296	->'''Homeworld:''' Tharr
297	->'''Abilities:''' Cold control
298
299	Born on the planet Tharr, he has the natural ability to create and control ice. Originally rejected by the Legion, he founded the Legion of Substitute Heroes. The real Legion accepted him when he learned to control his powers.
300	In Reboot Legion continuity, Polar Boy is only ever a member of the Substitute Heroes; while in Prime Legion continuity, Polar Boy is a member of the Wanderers who can slow down molecular movement.
301	----
302	* ArtificialLimbs: He lost the major part of his right arm to Tusker, and replaced with a fully functioning new arm made of ice.
303	%%* AscendedFanboy
304	* BigBrotherMentor: Although he joined the Legion at the same time as Tellus and Magnetic Kid, his years of experience with the Subs meant they looked up to him as this.
305	* ButtMonkey: Like many of the Substitute Heroes, he occasionally found himself the butt of comic relief. His reputation as a Sub proved to be something of an impediment as a Legionnaire to those who didn't know better. And then he got elected leader, after which shit hit the fan from all directions.
306	* TheChainsOfCommanding: He took leadership during [[DarkestHour the most tumultuous time]] for the Legion, and had to deal with certain teammates who looked down on him for a perceived lack of experience and competence. His own lack of confidence didn't help much.
307	* ConvectionSchmonvection: Justified. He can project cold well enough to survive at the ''center of the earth''. Now, how he ''breathes'' is another question.
308	* DarkestHour: Take your pick: was it when the Legion battled the Time Trapper twice? Starfinger twice? Maybe the rise of the Manhunters or the Magic War, when his friend Magnetic Kid was killed? Or how about Black Dawn, and afterward when (Dominator-controlled) Earthgov started actively oppressing the Legion? Poor guy had to be Leader for ''all'' of that, de facto or otherwise. Not to mention he had to be the guy who formally ended the Legion, even though he'd wanted to be a member practically his entire life.
309	* HandicappedBadass: In Retroboot, Polar Boy's arm was ripped off by Earth-Man. He replaced with a [[ArtificialLimbs prosthetic made of ice]] that he animates with his powers.
310	* AnIcePerson: His cryo abilities are native to a select group of people of Tharr, who require it to compensate for the super-heated atmosphere of their home world. He can reduce the heat around himself or other objects, creating a drop in temperature ranging from mild to intense. Because of this, Brek can withstand hotter than normal temperatures. Usually, when he makes an item very cold, ice or frost will condense on its surface.
311	* InadequateInheritor: Since he'd only been a member of the Legion proper for a year when he was elected leader, he tended to find himself having to prove his leadership chops against his more experienced colleagues. Brainiac 5 quit outright when Polar Boy censured him and the other members of the conspiracy to destroy the Time Trapper.
312	* TheLeader: Polar Boy has served as the leader of the Legion of Substitute Heroes for the entirety of their tenure. His optimism and eagerness have cultivated a strong feeling of friendship and respect among his fellow Subs. His compassion is matched only by his dedication and he is quick-witted and a strategic thinker.
313	* LogicalWeakness: Intense heat will negate the effects of Polar Boy's powers.
314	* OlderThanTheyLook: Tharrians age more slowly than Earth humans, so he spent a good deal of time as kind of a shrimp. It's one of the reasons he got turned down, as he looked somewhat below the Legion's cutoff age.
315	* PowerIncontinence: Got so excited during his initial Legion tryout that he froze the whole room.
316	* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: He's got a talent for putting these together and making them effective. Examples include the Legion of Substitute Heroes, and the band he put together to overthrow Evillo's tyranny of Tartarus.
317	* TookALevelInBadass: Retroboot.
318	* WideEyedIdealist: Kept the dream of the Legion alive when Earthgov was trying to destroy it, and even somehow believed that he'd get a fair trial from Earthgov after protesting them. Thankfully, Matter-Eater Lad managed to outmaneuver Earthgov by playing the publicity game.

323	->'''AKA:''' Pol Krinn
324	->'''Homeworld:''' Braal
325	->'''Abilities:''' Magnetism manipulation
326
327	Pol Krinn is Magnetic Kid, the younger brother of Rokk Krinn aka ComicBook/CosmicBoy, who followed in his older brother's footsteps by becoming a magnoball champion, even though his powers were considerably weaker.
328
329	He became a student of the Legion Academy after a terrorist "fireballing" (think firebombing but nuclear-based) killed his and Rokk's mother, then joined the Legion after his brother retired to an advisory position.
330
331	During the Magic War, when a sacrifice was necessary to lower the barrier the Archmage had placed around the Sorcerer's World of Zerox, Pol offered himself up without hesitation. This action would prove instrumental in saving the universe from the Archmage.
332
333	Rokk and his wife Lydda would name their newborn son in his honor.
334
335	In the Reboot, Pol never joined the Legion, remaining a champion magnoball player.
336	----
337	* AlwaysSecondBest: Pol is Cosmic Boy's younger brother, and the preboot incarnation of the character struggles with living in his older brother's shadow and finding a way to live up to his example. It ends in tragedy.
338	* DeathByOriginStory: He was perfectly happy living a normal life until the terrorist fireballing of Metropolis, which severely injured himself and his father and killed his mother. As he recovered, Pol re-evaluated his beliefs and decided to turn his talents toward protecting the innocent.
339	* DecompositeCharacter: Postboot, Magnetic Kid's role is split between Pol Krinn (Rokk's younger brother, now a successful pro magno-ball player who never joins the Legion) and Magno (the young Braalian Legionnaire who has difficulty related to being overshadowed by Cos).
340	* ExtraOreDinary: As a Braalian, Magnetic Kid controls magnetism and can use it to manipulate metals.
341	* {{Flight}}: like his brother, he can manipulate magnetic waves in order to fly under his own power.
342	* ForceAndFinesse: Rokk had the good fortune to be born with incredibly potent magnetic abilities by Braalian standards, but Pol is only barely above average. As a result, he chose to focus his training around accuracy and finesse in order to use what he ''did'' have more effectively, as well as distinguishing his methods from his brother's.
343	* HeroicSacrifice: During the "Magic Wars", where magic prevailed over science. Pol Krinn sacrificed himself so that the lock the Archmage has placed on the Sorcerer's World could be opened and all the Legionnaires could fight the source of the problem.
344	* HeroWorshipper: Idolized his brother his entire life, even though they didn't travel the same path at first.
345	* InterspeciesFriendship: He forged several with his interspecies group of classmates, and became particularly close to his roommate Grev Mallor aka Shadow Lad as his Academy roomie, and Tellus, who joined the Legion alongside him.
346	* KilledOffForReal: He wasn't brought back after his heroic sacrifice, when he returned as a character it was following a reboot that altered his history and made him a different character than the Pol that died.
347	* LogicalWeakness: Heat weakens magnetism, so his powers (and those of other Braalians) are much weaker in the presence of extremely high temperatures.
348	* MagnetismManipulation: Pol can manipulate magnetic metals due to his heritage as a Braalian.
349	* ObliviousToLove: It took him a while to realize that Ayla/Lightning Lass [[AgeGapRomance had the hots]] for him. When it finally clicked (thanks to her practically throwing herself at him), he made a quick excuse and bolted. Then he got killed. Tsk.

354	->'''AKA:''' (real name untranslatable)
355	->'''Homeworld:''' Teall
356	->'''Abilities:''' Object animation
357
358	Quislet is an energy being from the dimension of Teall, and was then recruited into the Legion of Super-Heroes. The Teallians exist in a hive mind, but Quislet enjoyed his individuality so tried to escape his people.
359	----
360	* AnimateInanimateObject: Possesses inorganic objects and makes them move according to his will, though he can't stay in them for long.
361	* TheAssimilator: Defied. He was sent to our world to find other sapient energy beings and bring them back to Teall, when they would be converted into his peoples' HiveMind. He refused.
362	* BirdsOfAFeather: Gets along well with the more light-hearted or non-introspective members of the Legion (Dream Girl, Timber Wolf) and those with similarly alien outlooks (Tellus).
363	* BlueAndOrangeMorality: He wants to help, but his truly alien perspective can lead to him unintentionally offending people.
364	* BolivianArmyEnding: The last time he was on Teall, his fellow Teallians were going to inflict DeathOfPersonality on him in order to destroy his individuality and he barely managed to trick his way back onto his spaceship and escape. When Emerald Empress destroys his ship, he's forced to return home once more to survive, this time with no way back.
365	* BrutalHonesty: He and Wildfire often got teamed up by writers for their banter, frankness and trash talk abilities.
366	* BubbleBoy: The "bubble" in question being a spaceship he can't leave for long unless possessing something (at least in our dimension).
367	* CuriousAsAMonkey: Especially when it comes to gossip.
368	* EnergyBeings: He was a microscopic energy-being from the alternate dimension of Teall who flew around in a tiny spaceship.
369	* FunPersonified: His primary motivation is to seek out exciting new experiences and have fun.
370	* GrandTheftMe: Sort of, in that his powers are the possession and animation of ''inanimate objects''.
371	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Easily the most self-centered, egotistic member the Legion has ever had...but he came to this dimension with the specific desire to do good, and [[TheAssimilator firmly declined to pursue his original mission]] as soon as he got here.
372	* MorphicResonance: Anything he animates develops his symbol on it, which appears to be his name.
373	* NoBiologicalSex: He's a sexless energy being. That said, he's referred to as a male by non-members of his species, and doesn't seem to care.
374	* NoSell: The Emerald Eye turns out to be the first object able to resist Quislet's possession.
375	* NotTheIntendedUse: Since he causes whatever he possesses to disintegrate, Quislet can use his powers to destroy dangerous munitions such as missiles, render computers/robots inoperable, or destroy otherwise sturdy objects.
376	* PossessionBurnout: He can only possess objects for a short amount of time, and the objects disintegrate after he leaves them, except for his ship.
377	* RebelliousSpirit: Quislet's fellow [[HiveMind Teallians]] regarded his independent thinking as a desirable asset in their first astronaut...until he stole their spaceship, told them where to stick their mission and headed through a black hole to parts unknown to them.
378	* RogueDrone: He's an escapee from his universe's HiveMind.
379	* {{Shapeshifting}}: Can alter she shape of anything he's possessing, except his ship.
380	* StarfishAliens: Lacks a body in the traditional sense.
381	* ThirdPersonPerson: It might be due to having been raised in a HiveMind, or some way to underline his individuality, but Quislet refers to Quisletself as Quislet.
382	* TheUnpronounceable: His real name was an unpronounceable glyph.
383	* UnskilledButStrong: His power is useful and versatile, but it has a couple of glaring limitations, namely a limited possession time and the destruction of whatever he possesses. Quislet refuses to train it any further because he regards himself as perfect already.
384	* WalkingTechbane: If he possesses something besides his ship, it falls apart when he leaves it no matter ''what'' it is, this includes machines, computers, and Wildfire's containment suit.

389	->'''AKA:''' Ganglios
390	->'''Homeworld:''' Hyrkaius
391	->'''Abilities:''' Telepathy and telekinesis
392
393	Born on the planet Hykraius, he is a natural telepath with extremely proficient skill. His alien physiology means he needs a helmet to breathe in air, simulating his native environment of liquid methane. He has also been a member of the religious organization Dark Circle, the Legion Espionage Squad, and the temporally displaced Legion Lost.
394	----
395	* AwfulTruth: Accidentally scanned Saturn Girl's mind and discovered she was hiding a terrible secret. Investigations with other new members proved that she, along with several other Legion members were planning to break the Legion Code and kill the Time Trapper. He was horrified to learn that the pillars of the Legion would betray its ideals in such a way.
396	* BirdsOfAFeather: Got along well with Quislet, as both of them were very unlike typical [[HumanAliens aliens]] in the Legion.
397	* {{Cult}}: During 5YL Hyrakius joined The Dark Circle, a quasi-cult/criminal organization opposed to Mon-el/Valor, and Ganglios (no longer a Legion member) followed them, though he maintains a distant friendship with his former teammates.
398	* GracefulInTheirElement: Is much happier and more agile in places where he can swim rather than walk, and thoroughly enjoys his trip to the Phantom Zone as a result.
399	* HiveMind: Not quite, but since Hyrakians are a close-knit society of psychics, they weren't far off. He found the Legion's teamwork and familial atmosphere quite comforting as a result...[[AwfulTruth At first]].
400	* InterspeciesFriendship: The only Hyrakian in the Legion, so ''any'' of his friendships among them count as this, but he was particularly close with the Braalian Human Pol Krinn and Teallian Quislet, so much so that their loss was one of the main factors to his leaving the Legion. He was also friends with Laurel Kent, the purported descendant of Superman.
401	* NiceGuy: Very polite and well-intentioned.
402	* OddFriendship: Developed one with Magnetic Kid, who joined at the same time he did and shared an interest in improving his powers and distinguishing himself among the Legion.
403	* PsychicPowers
404	** MindManipulation: Although rarely used, Ganglios' can force his telepathic powers to control lesser minded beings. Normally he uses this ability to allow himself into other's mind to sift through their thoughts without resistance.
405	** MindOverMatter: One of Ganglios' main abilities is his telekinesis. He uses this to move his large, heavy body about with no difficulty as well as levitating himself and others (with more stress per person).
406	** {{Telepathy}}: One of Ganglios' main abilities. He uses it as a means of communication, investigation, searching, controlling and deciphering. He can even search the mind of an unconscious foe and reach into the subconscious of other individuals. This is a natural ability of his race.
407	* TrainingTheGiftOfMagic: PsychicPowers are normal in his species, but training under Saturn Girl expanded his abilities ''well'' beyond the norm for a Hyrakian.
408	* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Or telepaths it, in this case. He's been xenologically trained to be able to use his powers on minds radically different from his own. Like, you know, ''ours''.
409	* StarfishAliens: He is a Hykraian hailing from the ocean world of Hykraius. The Hykraians are an aquatic methane-breathing fish-like people.
410	* TelepathicSpacemen: All Hyrakians are.
411	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Kind of. When he was chosen to join over a Saturnian telepath who went by "Mentalla", the spurned young psychic decided she'd trick the Fatal Five into letting her join and then use her powers to help the Legion capture them. She did so successfully, but the Five realized what she'd done and killed her horribly.
412	* WideEyedIdealist: At first. Finding the AwfulTruth above, learning that his friend Laurel Kent was actually a Manhunter robot, and losing his two closest friends in the Legion [[TookALevelInCynic changed him]] quite a bit.
