4!The Cool Kids Squad as a Whole
5An independent team of school-age superheroes.
6!!Tropes relating to the Cool Kids as a whole:
7* FiveManBand: Gender-inverted, with Wendini as TheLeader, Bee as TheLancer, Whiz as TheSmartGuy, Mari as TheBigGuy, and Alex as TheHeart.
8* MysteriousPast: All the kids' pasts are yet to be expanded upon.

10
11! Bee Wallace/[=InvisaBee=]
12The friendliest member of the team and [[HurricaneOfPuns a constant source of puns]].
13
14Bee's powers are {{flight}}, turning [[{{Invisibility}} invisible]], and [[ShockAndAwe electrocuting people]] with her punches. She has small electric bombs that stick to people.
15!!Tropes relating to Bee:
16* {{Flight}}: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Bee can fly]].
17* {{Invisibility}}: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Can turn invisible]].

21* ShockAndAwe: Electrocutes through her punches.
22
23! Bernadette Cruz/[=WhizKid=]
24The most confrontational Cool Kid, and the traditionally smartest. She LOVES her useless facts.
25
26Her superpower is [[SuperSpeed enhanced speed]].
27!! Tropes relating to Whiz:
28* EncyclopedicKnowledge: She knows everything about everything, from magic to peanut butter.
29* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Almost never referred to by her actual name, both by the other characters and the narrator.
30* TheSmartGuy: Mary Sue acknowledges her as one of the smartest kids at school in the first episode.
31* SuperSpeed: Has superhuman agility.
32
33! Wendy/The Great Wendini
34Possibly the most mysterious main character, whose surname is unknown. The drunk aunt of the group.
35
36Her powers are her magical ability. She uses it for summoning giant hands, teleportation, and protective charms; anything she has a charm for, really.
37!! Tropes relating to Wendini:
38* CuteWitch: A 16-year-old sorceress.
39* ImprobableWeaponUser: Fights through summoned hands.
40* TheLeader: Downplayed. The Cool Kids don't have a leader, Wendini is just the most level-headed of the bunch.
41* OnlyOneName: Her surname is unknown.
42* SpontaneousWeaponCreation: Summons [[ImprobableWeaponUser giant hands]].
43* {{Teleportation}}: Through magic.
44
45! Alex/Brother Nature
46A half-mythic and the only Cool Kid without superpowers. The only male Cool Kid.
47
48He makes up for his lack of powers by taking advantage of his sister, MotherNature, hating him and sending natural disasters and animals after him.
49!! Tropes relating to Alex:
50* BadassNormal: Doesn't have any powers, but invokes the most destructive forces of the group.
51* ButtMonkey: Constantly being targeted by the world around him--literally: his sister, Mother Nature, sics animals and natural disaster at him.
52* GuileHero: Fights by provoking his sister and redirecting the fallout at his enemies.
53* TheHeart: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]. While he's the most vulnerable Cool Kid, relying on his sister's ire to fight and his teammates to maneuver, he's also pretty apathetic and [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]].
54* NatureIsNotNice: Mother Nature specifically has it in for him, usually expressing this through having animals mess with him.
55* TheOneGuy: The only male Cool Kid.
56* OnlyOneName: He explicitly doesn't have a surname.
57
58! Mari Casso/[=ChickenDoggo=]
59A SnarkyNonHumanSidekick who isn't a sidekick at all, but rather a full-fledged member of the team who just happens to be a snarky FunnyAnimal.
60
61Her powers are being able to [[VoluntaryShapeShifting turn into werewolves and cockatrices]].
62!! Tropes relating to Mari:
63* TheBigGuy: Her fighting style relies mainly on brute strength.
64* FunnyAnimal: A dog who is functionally identical to a human.
65* HeroicDog: A dog and a superhero.
66* SnarkyNonHumanSidekick: Snarky and a FunnyAnimal, but subverted in that she's a superhero in her own right.
67* VoluntaryShapeShifting: Into werewolves and cockatrices.
