5
6[[folder:In General]]
7!!!In General
8----
9* AlternateUniverse: The entire point of the Disparation stories (from the word "disparate"). As if you couldn't tell from the pictures.
10* EvilDoppelganger: It's common for villains to become heroes (and vice-versa) in the various other worlds. It's just as common for the heroes' {{Alternate Sel|f}}ves to be villains in the various ''Disparation'' universes.
11* WhatIf: Created to directly reference Creator/MarvelComics' ''ComicBook/WhatIf'' books and Creator/DCComics' "Imaginary Stories"[=/=]''{{Elseworlds}}'', the metafiction's Sentinel Comics Publishing Universe calls their equivalent line ''Disparation''.

19[[caption-width-right:350:From left to right: Shockwave, Lucky Strike, Lady Luck, and Rat Beast]]
20
21!!Lucky Strike (Setback)
22----
23* BattleCouple: With Kismet's GoodCounterpart Lady Luck.
24* CompositeCharacter: Pete Riske but with the martial arts training and discipline of Mr. Fixer.
25* LuckManipulationMechanic: Biased towards bad luck same as mainstream Setback, but with more control over it.
26* PsychoExGirlfriend: Has one in the form of this universe's Expatriette.
27* SupernaturalMartialArts: Like his master, his martial prowess verges on mysticism.
28
29!!Lady Luck (Kismet)
30----
31* BattleCouple: With Lucky Strike.
32* LuckManipulationMechanic: Like Lucky Strike and biased towards good luck same as mainstream Kismet. She uses hers in combination with his.
33
34!!Rat Beast (Plague Rat / Eduardo Lopez)
35The prime universe Wraith's Eduardo López, who was killed by Spite, if he'd been a cop instead of a paralegal, and if he'd gone on to become patient zero for the Plague Rat curse/contagion.
36----
37* ByTheBookCop: He used to be this. Unfortunately, he was a cop in [[WretchedHive Rook City]] which isn't exactly the best environment for those looking to do good.
38* CompositeCharacter: Of Wraith's paralegal friend Eduardo López who was killed by Spite in the main universe, with Plague Rat's curse.
39* {{Expy}}: His backstory of being a friend of the resident ComicBook/{{Batman}} expy's friend who goes on to be mutated seems to be a nod to the Ethan Bennett version of Clayface from WesternAnimation/TheBatman.
40* IAmAMonster: He feels this way about being a rat beast.
41* UnstoppableRage: He flies into a frenzy when badly damaged, in which his self-control plummets as his monstrous strength skyrockets.
42* WasOnceAMan: Was once a well-intentioned police officer.
43
44!!Shockwave (Tempest)
45----
46* AntiHero: He's rude and condescending to his teammates, and is implied to get into a lot of shady, dirty business as a bounty hunter. Part of his joining the team involves promising to keep a lid on this sort of thing, and the creators confirm that if his story wasn't just a one-shot, he'd probably undergo CharacterDevelopment to move past this.
47* BountyHunter: His day job at the point in time when he comes to this version of Earth.
48* ForWantOfANail: Not finding the aid his people needed on Earth or the acceptance of the other Prime Wardens, this version of M'kk became an alien bounty hunter like Greazer Clutch. He's also something of what Greazer might have been like if he never came to enjoy the work.
49* GoodColorsEvilColors: He's a much darker take on Tempest, with red lightning instead of blue and a caped cowl.
50* InTheHood: Has a long cape and peaked cowl.
51[[/folder]]
52
53[[folder:Villains]]
54
55!!The Wraith
56Possibly an alternate version of Nightmist with the Wraith's name.
57----
58* ApocalypseCult: If the Coven of Gloom is anything like the mainstream Cult of Gloom.
59* OurMagesAreDifferent: Seemingly some sort of undead witch who's part of the Coven of Gloom.
60* SummonMagic: She summoned a monstrous, demonic version of Spite to cover her escape.
61
62!!Bloogo
63----
64* LastOfTheirKind: If he's anything like mainstream Bloogo then he's this.
65* PokemonSpeak: Like mainstream Bloogo he can only say his name (which is likely how he got his name in the first place).
66* UnexpectedCharacter: If anyone from the mainline setting was going to appear as a villain, chances are no one was expecting it to be Deadline's fairly literal MoralityPet, a one-off target from the Enclave of the Endlings.
67
68!!Night Terror (Expatriette)
69----
70* TheBusCameBack: In-universe (and technically out, too). Just when you thought she was just a one-shot character she comes back as part of the cast of the new ''Disparation'' comic line post-[=MistStorm=] timeline destruction.
71* PsychoExGirlfriend: To Lucky Strike.
72* RebelliousSpirit: She frequently rebels against authority. This almost gets her killed when she accidentally causes explosions while defacing s lab.
73* ToxicFriendInfluence: To Lucky Strike in the past. So very much.
74
75!!The Chairman (Citizen Dawn)
76----
77* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Like that other Chairman, she has plenty of money and resources at her disposal.
78* TheManBehindTheMan: Is this to Night Terror and her Citizens of the Night.
79[[/folder]]
80
81[[folder:Others]]
82!!Officer Kel-Voss (Grand Warlord Voss)
83----
84* EvilDoppelganger: {{Inverted}} presumably, since this version of Tempest isn't exactly heroic.
85* TheGhost: We never see him. He's just mentioned by Shockwave as the reason for why he's hiding out on Earth.
86[[/folder]]

89
90[[folder:''¿Quando? ¡Ahora!'' Freedom Five]]
91!!The Freedom Five
92[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/e67_disparation_f5.jpg]]
93[[caption-width-right:350:From left to right: Plaything on top of Infinitor-Ape[[note]][[IncrediblyLamePun Apefinitor]], if you will[[/note]], Unity, The Ashen Heir, and Apex.]]
94
95!!The Ashen Heir (The Argent Adept)
96The gender-flipped version of Anthony Drake, but with Nightmist's mist-based curse.
97----
98* CompositeCharacter: She's Argent Adept's AlternateSelf but has looks and magical twists to her powers that also resemble Nightmist.
99* GenderFlip: In this universe, she's Angela Drake instead of Anthony.
100* MagicalFlutist: She carries a pan flute with the soul of her grandmother Abigail Grey, the previous Virtuoso of the Void, inside.
101* MagicMusic: As is typical of a Virtuoso of the Void.
102* PowersViaPossession: Until she finally learns everything she needs to about being a Virtuoso on her own, she gains the bulk of her powers and knowledge from her great-to-the-nth grandmother possessing her.
103
104!!Unity (composite of Unity & Omnitron X)
105----
106* CompositeCharacter: Omnitron-X but with Unity's name and looks.
107* MechanicalLifeforms: Combining the technical skills of two different characters into one.
108* RobotGirl: Since, after all, she looks like a metallic version of the mainline universe's Unity.
109* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: She has feelings, wears clothes, and even comes with hair.
110
111!!Plaything (The Dreamer)
112----
113* TheAtoner: Still trying to make up for all the chaos caused by the Dreamer.
114* IAmAMonster: She's having trouble getting over her Dreamer phase.
115
116!!Apex (composite of Bugbear & The Naturalist)
117----
118* {{Animorphism}}: He can turn into various [[MeaningfulName apex]] predators.
119* CompositeCharacter: In this universe Moris Dugal gets powers like Naturalist's instead of his main counterpart's Bugbear powers.
120* MeaningfulName: His name is ''Apex'' and he transforms into ''Apex'' predators.
121* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Zigzagged. He ''can'' deliberately trigger the changes, but they also sometimes come on him with little warning. He trains to minimize this.
122
123!!Infinitor-Ape / "Apefinitor" (Infinitor)
124----
125* BashBrothers: In this universe Hugh (Captain Cosmic) and Nigel both ended up sane and heroic, and fought villains together for a time.
126* EarlyBirdCameo: A long time coming: an evil version of the same ape appears as an enemy (Treacherous Ape) in The Dreamer's villain deck. That same ape actually appears in front of the same circus ape in the art for Tachyon's Lightning Reflexes card, all the way back in the base game!
127* EvilDoppelganger: {{Inverted}}. This version of Infinitor is fully a hero.
128* KillerGorilla: Possibly an orangutan, but nevertheless, a big scary ape.
129* PowerCrystal: The green oblivion shard that granted Infinitor his powers. This version of the character has the crystal embedded in his forehead.
130* SoulJar: After his physical body was obliterated by this universe's vastly more powerful Empyreon, all that's left of him is the oblivion shard containing his consciousness. The ape he has to inhabit is built as a replacement for the old one.
131* StatusBuff: An InUniverse example. His power is that he uses energy to increase his strength in parts of his body.
132* WasOnceAMan: Is now inhabiting the body of an ape due to some weird comic book resurrection shenanigans.
133[[/folder]]
134
135[[folder:Villains]]
136!!Empyreon
137----
138* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Attack of the way-bigger-than-fifty-feet sun-eating abomination.
139* EldritchAbomination: Almost definitely, what with being huge, eating suns, and having a giant hole in his chest.
140* PlanetEater: Even worse. This version of Empyreon eats freaking suns!
141[[/folder]]
142
143!!Inverted Universe
144
145[[folder:The Fearsome Five]]
146!!The Fearsome Five
147[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/e69_inverse_universe.jpg]]
148[[caption-width-right:350:From left to right: Terminal Velocity, Black Frost, Legacy of Destruction, White Wraith, and Rampart]]
149
150!!Legacy of Destruction (Legacy)
151* AnarchyIsChaos: The creators have described him as the worst sort of insurrectionary anarchist; the lantern insignia on his chest has no flame inside it because his ancestor started their endless legacy of destruction by snuffing out a lighthouse just to cause mass destruction through making ships crash.
152* BewareTheSuperman: Actually not as bad as Iron Legacy's example, but he's still pretty out-of-control and super powerful. The digital game actually has the heroic Luminary of this universe spell out the fact that if nothing else, at least Legacy of Destruction seems to have ''[[ForTheEvulz fun]]'' [[ForTheEvulz being evil]].
153%%* CoolShades: Wears a pair to top off his [[EvilWearsBlack all-black]] version of the Legacy costume.
154* EvilDoppelganger: To the prime ''SOTM'' universe's TheParagon Legacy, an EvilIsHammy CardCarryingVillain rather than Iron Legacy's HeWhoFightsMonsters KnightTemplar, and basically what Baron Blade might be like if he had Legacy's powers instead of being a GadgeteerGenius.
155* PsychoticSmirk: Usually has either a thin, smug smirk or a [[SlasherSmile sadistic grin]] plastered across his face.
156
157!!Black Frost (Absolute Zero)
158* AnIcePerson: Like mainstream Absolute Zero.
159* TheBusCameBack: He returns as part of the post-[=MistStorm=] ''Disparation'' books.
160* ControlFreak: The creators have said that part of his villainous characterization is wanting to freeze the world in place.
161
162!!Rampart (Bunker)
163* PoweredArmor: Same as mainstream Bunker.
164
165!!Terminal Velocity (Tachyon)
166* SuperSpeed: Just like mainstream Tachyon.
167
168!!White Wraith (Wraith)
169* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: Unlike the rest of the Fearsome Five, whose powers are seemingly unchanged from their mainstream counterparts, White Wraith seems much more superpowered and supernatural than mainstream Wraith, who is a martial, unpowered, gadget-wielding Batman {{Expy}}.
170* SensibleHeroesSkimpyVillains: While the heroic Wraith is still dressed in a flattering costume, the White Wraith is wearing nothing but some body wraps.
171[[/folder]]
172
173[[folder:The Founding Five]]
174!!The Founding Five
175!!Luminary (Baron Blade)
176[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/luminary_ivana_foil_front.png]]
177 [[caption-width-right:350:"You lack the mad mirth of the Legacy of Destruction. Your Legacy is of sorrow and loss. I cannot let your sadness crush this world as well."]]
178----
179* GadgeteerGenius: And how! For one there's her lunar prison where she traps Legacy of Destruction on the moon (which doesn't last very long). There's the Omnitron Defense System which defends [[CityOfAdventure Megalopolis]] and other cities from destruction. And of course, there's the beam she used to trap Legacy of Destruction in stasis and then beam him to a prison in Antarctica.
180* GenderFlip: Of Baron Blade.
181* PromotedToPlayable: She appears as the promo variant for Luminary in ''[=OblivAeon=]''.
182* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: She's a princess who uses her gadgets to fight evil.
183
184!!Peacemaker (Spite)
185----
186* BodyHorror: Volunteering for medical experiments left him superstrong, but also deformed and unable to breath anything but ammonia.
187* DumbIsGood: In contrast to his [[EvilGenius mainline counterpart]], this Donovan is not terribly bright, but has the best of intentions.
188* TheEmpath: He can sense people's emotions and also calm them down.
189* NiceGuy: He is the ultimate nice guy, which makes sense since his counterpart, Spite, is the ultimate psychopath.
190
191!!Express (Fright Train)
192----
193* GenderFlip: A female version of the male Fright Train.
194* HurricaneOfPuns: In any universe, in any gender, Fright Train absolutely loves train puns.
195
196!!Flashbulb (Ermine)
197----
198* GenderFlip: Is a male version of the female Ermine.
199* HurricaneOfPuns: Loves photography puns.
200* LightEmUp: Can create blasts of light from his hands. Unusually, rather than doing damage, these instead serve to blind and stun adversaries.
201* PrettyBoy: Is outright described as being a "foppish pretty boy".
202
203!!Blank (Equity)
204----
205* {{Invisibility}}: As long as he has eye contact with you, you can't see him.
206* {{Intangibility}}: In conjunction with that, he can phase through other matter.
207[[/folder]]
208
209[[folder:Heroes]]
210
211!!Zosimos Alchemista (Biomancer)
212* FleshGolem: He still makes these but he only has one and whenever one dies he replaces it. However, instead of them being disposable he thinks of each of them as a very good friend and when they die he relays their story to the next flesh child.
213* WalkingTheEarth: And collecting knowledge on the way.
214
215!!Heartbreaker
216* HeelFaceTurn: Was a career criminal but the Bloodsworn Colosseum turned him around.
217
218!!The Bloodsworn Colosseum (The Bloodsworn Colosseum)
219* BoisterousBruiser: Most of them seem to be very boisterous since they're putting on a show instead of fighting to the death.
220
221!!The Omnitron Defense System (Omnitron)
222* CitadelCity: Is responsible for turning several cities into this.
223[[/folder]]
224
225[[folder:Others]]
226!!Mayor Pike (The Chairman)
227* BenevolentBoss: Does it count if he's the boss of a bunch of authority figures such as the police?
228* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He generally is a rather reasonable and good man who will fully support the heroes.
229
230!!Chief [=DeLeon=] (The Operative)
231* ByTheBookCop: She's a good cop and always does what's right.
232* DaChief: We don't see her boss around any subordinates but it's likely she is this.
233
234[[/folder]]
235
236!!The XTREME-Verse
237[[folder: The XTREME! Prime Wardens]]
238!!Xtreme Prime Wardens
239!!!In General
240[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/22e6eb1f_afe1_4035_8237_01c004b2effc.jpeg]]
241[[caption-width-right:350:From left to right: Haka, Tempest, The Argent Adept, Fanatic, and Captain Cosmic]]
242
243* NinetiesAntiHero: Their universe is basically one big love letter to said era and [[TheNineties the decade]] as a whole, in particular to Creator/RobLiefeld-inspired character designs, the [[HellBentForLeather crazy]] [[LeotardOfPower fashion]] and [[NinetiesHair hair]], and how everything was marketed as being [[XtremeKoolLetterz XTREME and over-the-top]]. To quote Guise: "Leather! Metal! Spikes! Chains!"
244* DeathOfAThousandCuts: Xtreme Argent Adept is the only one whose base power deals more than 1 damage, but it's actually better spent ordering other characters to play an extra card and use an extra power. Surely no accident, then, that this synergizes especially well with Xtreme Captain Cosmic, allowing him to toss out more constructs and then fire them all at a single target, and Xtreme Fanatic -- if she can burn an enemy to the ground with one of her AOE cards, she can then choose a new target for Kill the Spirit, not to mention Rebel Yell's damage priming her for [[DesperationAttack Wrathful Retribution]].
245* DenserAndWackier: The creators note that the original stories set in this universe were actually reasonably sober and serious, but over time, it turned into over-the-top parody.
246* LetsYouAndHimFight: They pass through a portal into the mainline universe and ''immediately'' start fighting with their {{Alternate Sel|f}}ves, but eventually sort things out, leaving the prime Prime Wardens with a warning as they return to their own reality.
247* NotYourDaddysX: The devs [[RunningGag keep saying this]] all through the XPW's ''Letters Page'' episode. The episode is even referred to in the show notes as “Not your dad’s episode.”
248* PermaStubble: As Adam puts it, "You have permanent five-o'clock shadow; it will not go lower than that".
249* ThemeNaming: All of the powers for the Xtreme Prime Wardens variant character cards are [[TitledAfterTheSong named for various '90s hard rock and metal songs]].
250* XtremeKoolLetterz: It is the Xtreme-verse, after all. Though in the actual comics nobody says Xtreme.
251
252!!Xtreme Argent Adept
253* NinetiesHair: Fashionably shaggy reddish Music/BonJovi-style long hair.
254* CoolShades: Wears a silver pair of these in contrast to his main counterpart not wearing any sort of face covering. The creators note that they're evenly matched in power except that Xtreme Argent Adept has "those sweet shades and his guitar".
255* ThePowerOfRock: In this universe his Virtuoso instrument is an electric guitar and a [[Music/BillyIdol rebel yell]].
256* PunkRock: Channels this with a base power that's a ShoutOut ({{Pun}} intended) to Music/BillyIdol.
257* WorthyOpponent: In the digital version Akash'Bhuta notes that she actually kinda likes this version of Argent better for being "loud and dissonant" and "chaotic", though she's still going to kill him anyway.
258
259!!Xtreme Captain Cosmic
260* NinetiesHair: This version of Cap rocks an Wrestling/UltimateWarrior-esque mane.
261* CoolShades: Like Argent, he wears a pair of mirrorshades, gold in his case, in place of his usual DominoMask.
262* DeathOfAThousandCuts: This version of him has a power that deals a target one energy damage, then causes each of his constructs in play to deal that same target 1 energy damage.
263* LondonGangster: In this incarnation he brandishes HardLight submachine guns, and has a much lower-class, more confrontational attitude than his "prime" universe counterpart.
264* MoreDakka: He shouts in his intro dialogue in the digital game that he has "more golden guns than you've had hot dinners", and demonstrates by posing like ComicBook/{{Cable}} with a couple of them.
265
266!!Xtreme Fanatic
267* CurbStompBattle: To unlock her, Fanatic has to destroy every vampire in the Court of Blood without letting them damage her even once.
268* EvilCostumeSwitch: The original edition incapacitated art for her simply shows her holding Apostate's {{BFS}} Condemnation (EvilCounterpart of Fanatic's own sword Absolution) aloft.
269* FacialMarkings: Has what appears to be a [[XMarksTheHero cross-shaped scar]] branded over her left eye, similar to the red stripe Psylocke occasionally sported, and possibly also a ShoutOut to [[http://marvel.com/universe/Bishop Bishop's M for Mutant brand]].
270* LeotardOfPower: Sports a yellow one with a red waist sash and yellow leg sashes, all of which looks deliberately like a color-swapped version of [[http://marvel.com/universe/Psylocke Psylocke's getup]].
271
272!!Xtreme Haka
273* DrawAggro: He has the only base power in the game that lets a hero take damage in place of another target, and regenerates a free point of health the first time he takes damage each turn after activating it.
274* HellBentForLeather: He has one of these with the sleeves artfully ripped off, based on one of ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}'s old costumes, complete with a dusting of shoulder hair and a heavy [[PermaStubble five o'clock shadow]].
275* SamuraiPonytail: Loose in the back, rather than his usual man-bun. Wolverine occasionally wore one of these, too.
276
277!!Xtreme Tempest
278* EvilCostumeSwitch: Still not evil, just a NinetiesAntiHero, but this hits Xtreme Tempest harder than the other Prime Wardens -- his '90s costume is all black with a red sash, and the [[ComicBook/XMen Colossus-style]] cloth shoulders of his vest are quite pointy.
279* GoodHairEvilHair: You can tell he's a badass because he keeps his [[AlienHair head tentacles]] all slicked straight down and back instead of the "looser" styles his other variants favor.
280* NavelDeepNeckline: His outfit has a "male" version of this (he-vage, if you will), based on Namor the ComicBook/SubMariner's classic "[[HighCollarOfDoom vest]]" costume.
281* RealMenWearPink: As grizzled as this version of Tempest appears, he still loves Music/KatyPerry.
282[[/folder]]
283
284[[folder:Villains]]
285!!Apostate
286* ChainedByFashion: Unnecessary chains around his overly muscular arms, another '90s staple.
287* MalevolentMaskedMen: Wears a metallic faceplate like ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''' Bane.
288[[/folder]]
