| 46 | A variant of the artificially intelligent construct that was ([[TimeTravelTenseTrouble will be?]]) created by Barry Allen in the future. Unlike the one in the Time Vault, this model of Gideon comes with her own personality, often serving as the Legends' color commentator in addition to their loyal digital database.\ |
| 47 | |
| 48 | -> see the Characters/ArrowverseTeamFlash page for the S.T.A.R. Labs, or "original", Gideon |
| 49 | ---- |
| 50 | * ArtificialHuman: Once an AI with a digital hologram, a spell from Astra causes her to be [[HumanityEnsues reconstituted as a real human]]. |
| 51 | * ArtificialIntelligence: She [[TimeTravelTenseTrouble was/will be]] created by Barry Allen at some point in the future. |
| 52 | * BenevolentAI: The Waverider's helpful AI assistant. |
| 53 | * TheBigDamnKiss: Her human avatar shares one with Rip in "Land of the Lost". |
| 54 | * CheerfulAI: Gideon's voice pretty much only has one cadence, which can be best described as "mildly cheery". Less about her responses to things that happen and more the ''way'' she says them. When she starts sounding serious it's usually a case of OOCIsSeriousBusiness. |
| 55 | * CovertPervert: She's kept track of Nate and Amaya's sexual exploits, and can completely recreate Mick's smutty romance novel. Zari calls her out on it. |
| 56 | * DeadpanSnarker: Gideon makes comments implying a snarky sense of humor. One suspects she's picking it up given the crew she's carrying around on the ''Waverider''. |
| 57 | --> '''Sara:''' I'm beginning to think our super computer is not so ''super''. |
| 58 | -->'''Gideon:''' I heard that. You try processing 1.2 zettabytes of data. |
| 59 | * ForeignRemake: She's not so subtly implied to be a British version of Gideon, with the "original American version" being voiced by Creator/MorenaBaccarin. |
| 60 | * FunnyForeigner: She speaks with a UsefulNotes/{{British accent|s}} and has a snarky sense of humor compared to Eobard Thawne's Gideon. |
| 61 | * GenderBlenderName: Though she technically has no gender since she's an AI, she has a traditionally male name but a female voice. In "Land of the Lost", she appears in human form and is ''very'' feminine, to the point that both Jax and Sara find her attractive and reveals that she apparently has feelings for Rip. |
| 62 | * HumanityEnsues: Astra's attempt to use a resurrection spell to [[PostModernMagik reconstruct Gideon after she's been blown up]] fails and, [[CreatingLifeIsUnforeseen completely unexpectedly]] incarnates her in a human body when the final word of the incantation is later spoken. |
| 63 | * IAmVeryBritish: This version of Gideon speaks with a RP accent. |
| 64 | * InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals: It is likely that this is just a different version of Gideon, rather than the original. |
| 65 | * JobStealingRobot: Played with. Hank asks why, if there's a fully autonomous AI who can do anything on the ship, she needs a crew at all. He doesn't get an answer, but it's been demonstrated several times that she needs people for repairs and maintenance, not to mention any excursions off the ship. |
| 66 | * LastNameBasis: Always addresses others by a formal title filtered by their surname such as "Captain Hunter" or "Dr. Palmer". |
| 67 | * MamaBear: To the Legends, on occasion. In particular when Ray is nearly killed in "Necromancing the Stone" after suffering multiple severe injuries. |
| 68 | -->'''Gideon:''' If I was capable of rage, I would feel it. The saboteur must be punished. |
| 69 | * NakedOnArrival: Upon first gaining human form, she isn't wearing a stitch. |
| 70 | * NiceGirl: She's unflappably polite, even when she's being snarky, and is fiercely loyal to her Captain and, eventually, the rest of the team in their mission to protect the timeline. |
| 71 | * NonHumanSidekick: For Rip Hunter, and eventually the entire Legends. |
| 72 | * NotSoAboveItAll: She at times demonstrates amusement at the Legends antics, while throwing in the occasional snark herself. She can even use slang if promoted. |
| 73 | * PrecisionFStrike: She calls Ava (pre-character development) a "bitch" when she chews out Sara and tells her the Time Bureau will arrest the Legends next time they meet. |
| 74 | * RavenHairIvorySkin: Her physical avatar in Rip's mind depicts her as a hot chick with really dark hair. It's likely intentional, given that Rip's late wife also had these features. |
| 75 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Her physical avatar in Rip's mind has her [[RavenHairIvorySkin overall appearance]] being similar to his late wife, Miranda. |
| 76 | * RidiculouslyHumanRobots: This Gideon acts a lot more human than Eobard's Gideon, who was more mechanical and robotic. She's benevolent and doesn't show much sign of autonomy, but she demonstrates a lot of loyalty to Rip and the Legends, and during Rip's attempted HeroicSacrifice, she admits that she doesn't want to die. By Season Two, it's clear she's developed genuine feelings for Rip. |
| 77 | * RobotGirl: The possibility of her obtaining a robotic body has been hinted at repeatedly. In addition to having a human avatar in Rip's dreamscape, she manifests a holographic face in season 4, a full-body holographic avatar in one timeline of "Legends of To-Meow-Meow," and gains a full robot body in another timeline in the same episode. |
| 78 | * ShipperOnDeck: For [[BattleCouple Sara and Ava]]. She picks up a habit of teasing Sara whenever they call each other, and she even intentionally frames Zari's simulation dream in a way that will ensure ''she'' finds out about their attraction to each other, too. |
| 79 | * SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: She was absent in the teaser trailer, while only her voice was heard on the main ones. |
| 80 | * SitcomArchNemesis: Has shades of this dynamic with Zari unsurprisingly, given that one is computer hacker and the other is a sentient computer. Later evolves into VitriolicBestBuds after Gideon subjects Zari to a "Groundhog Day" Loop simulation to show her the importance of staying with the Legends. |
| 81 | * TheSmartGal: Being an ArtificialIntelligence, she's the group's main encyclopedia. |
| 82 | * SpaceshipGirl: A BenevolentAI built into the Waverider capable of piloting the ship, putting it into lockdown, serving as AutoDoc, and providing {{Info Dump}}s such as information about historical periods the Legends visit or timeline changes. |
| 83 | * ThemeNaming: For Time Master AIs. '''Gi'''deon and '''Gi'''lbert. Even their voice actors have the same initials ('''A'''my '''P'''emberton and '''A'''ndrew '''P'''ifko). |
| 84 | * TokenNonHuman: She was one for the Legends until Charlie joins the team in Season 4. |
| 85 | * TrueCompanions: With Rip to the point that she comforts him when he pulls his HeroicSacrifice in the Season Two premiere and later becomes his only reliable/non-corrupted companion in his virtual reality prison. |
| 86 | * UndyingLoyalty: To Rip and ''only'' Rip, which is helpful as, apart from him and her, nobody else can run the ship, which helps keeps the team in line. Unfortunately, she's loyal to Rip even when he's turned BrainwashedAndCrazy by the Legion of Doom, but only because he invokes her override protocol. However in Season 3, Sara is able to subvert this via LoopholeAbuse since Rip is no longer Captain she is, so Gideon is no longer honor bound to follow any of Rip's overrides. But "No Country for Old Dad", still proves that Gideon will do whatever Rip asks, as she deletes a secret file about Ava he doesn't want Sara to see without question. Her loyalty over time extends to the rest of the Legends. |
| 87 | * YouAreNotAlone: While he's brainwashed by the Legion and trapped within his own subconscious, Rip has only one trustworthy companion with him -- Gideon. The only thing holding him back from returning to the real world after Sara and Jax enter his mind to get him back is her, as he doesn't want to leave her human avatar behind. She pushes him to go, since it isn't the real her, and even then, he can't leave her anyway -- she will always be with him regardless. Back in the real world, Gideon reveals that not only does she remember kissing Rip in his subconscious, she enjoyed it. |
| 88 | * YouCalledMeXItMustBeSerious: When Rip is about to perform a HeroicSacrifice and tells Gideon he would miss her, Gideon says she would miss him too, before she calls him "Rip" for the first time. |

| 102 | |
| 103 | Zari's younger brother, brought back to life after the BadFuture the two originally lived in got changed. In this new timeline, he took his sister's place as a member of the Legends. |
| 104 | ---- |
| 105 | * EleventhHourRanger: He joins the Legends literally minutes before the fourth season concludes. |
| 106 | * AdaptationOriginConnection: In the comics, his power-granting amulet is part of the same line as the Captain Marvel family; here, his powers stem from the same source as Vixen's. |
| 107 | * AdaptationNameChange: Named Amon in the comic books instead of Behrad. Also in-universe, as the Tomaz family name is now Tarazi in the new timeline. |
| 108 | * BackFromTheDead: |
| 109 | ** He was originally introduced as a PosthumousCharacter, but the BadFuture in which he was killed was negated, resulting in his revival and taking his sister's place as a member of the Legends. |
| 110 | ** Happens a second time in ''Legends'' Season 5. He is killed by Atropos in "Zari, Not Zari", then brought back by Charlie in [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]]. |
| 111 | * BackstoryInvader: Thanks to negating the BadFuture in which he was killed, he's the one who joins the Legends instead of his sister Zari. As the subsequent episodes show, it seems that Zari's status in the team has also been passed to him, e.g. Sara's nickname for Behrad is "B", recalling how she tended to call Zari "Z". |
| 112 | * BlowYouAway: He was the original possessor of the Air Totem before Zari took it after his death. In the new timeline, he is seen possessing it. |
| 113 | * CantHoldHisLiquor: He doesn't drink both because of his religion (it's seen as haram, or sinful, by most Muslims) and because he simply can't handle it. [[TheStoner Thankfully, the Quran doesn't mention any specifics on weed, acid, mushrooms, lyoga root, etc.]] |
| 114 | * ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: In the comic books he goes by Osiris, but he is yet to be addressed as that. |
| 115 | * {{Composite Character}}: He and Zari are loosely based of Adriane and Amon Tomaz. But Behrad's role as an aerokinetic Iranian makes him exactly like the Iranian meta-human hero Khalid aka Sirocco from the Comics. |
| 116 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: In the original timeline, he was raised in a dystopian police state and was later killed as a member of LaResistance. In the new timeline, he grew up as the often-overlooked "Dragon Girl's brother", who had to be careful about who he befriended, as some were only friendly to him to get close to his famous sister. Later, it's revealed that the family was also the focus of a reality show when he was young, leaving him feeling very exposed. |
| 117 | -->"I have ''countless'' memories of cameras in my face every time I was scared! Rvery time I cried! You wanna know about the first time I ever failed?! Don't worry! "Keeping Up with the Tarazis" had a ''whole episode'' about it!" |
| 118 | * DeathIsCheap: In "Zari, Not Zari", he gets killed by Atropos while trying to stop her from taking a part of the Loom of Fate. Zari makes Constantine swear to bring him back once the Loom is reassembled. Ultimately, however, it's Charlie who does the deed. |
| 119 | * TheEngineer: Possibly not to the extent of his sister, but at least enough of one to understand Gideon enough to figure out what's wrong with her. |
| 120 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Nate, as a nod to Zari being his love interest at the moment he replaced her in the new timeline. |
| 121 | * InSeriesNickname: Echoing Zari, he is sometimes called "B" by his fellow Legends. |
| 122 | * LastEpisodeNewCharacter: PlayedWith. He's originally a PosthumousCharacter who's been mentioned, seen in photographs, and once appeared as a hallucination, but his official appearance is in the ''Legends'' Season 4 finale. |
| 123 | * NiceGuy: He's a pretty friendly and fun guy. |
| 124 | * PosthumousCharacter: In the old timeline, he died sometime before Zari's recruitment. |
| 125 | * LaResistance: Was a member of a group of rebels fighting the now fascist-minded A.R.G.U.S. in the previous timeline; he joins the Legends after a CosmicRetcon. |
| 126 | * PromotedToOpeningTitles: Shayan Sobhian gets upped to series regular starting with season 6. |
| 127 | * ShipTease: By [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]], he is given a few with Astra. They later get more shipping moments in Season 7 and eventually become an official couple. |
| 128 | * SiblingRivalry: In the new timeline, his relationship with Zari isn't healthy at all, due to how she is a self-absorbed online celebrity who always prioritizes social media over family. |
| 129 | * StepfordSmiler: Is revealed to have shades of this in Season 7, relying increasingly on his TheStoner persona to avoid showing his fears and anxieties, especially after dying and being resurrected. This actually goes back to when his family was the focus of a reality show thanks to his sister's fame, and every moment of weakness was broadcast for the public to see and comment on, so he had to develop ways to hide them as a means of self-protection. |
| 130 | * TheStoner: Is seen with various drug paraphernalia (using his wind powers to clear away the smoke surrounding him) and asks Sara if she wants to get baked. |
| 131 | * TallDarkAndHandsome: 6'3, raven-haired, and quite a good-looking man. |
| 132 | * UnresolvedSexualTension: With Charlie after they sleep together, due to her personal issues and MayflyDecemberRomance being in play. |
| 133 | * WalkingSpoiler: The fact that he's a member of the Legends gives away the negation of the BadFuture in which he was originally killed which results in him replacing his sister as a Legend. |

| 148 | A genetically engineered clone from the future. She's recruited by Rip to serve as the "perfect" agent, as well as his right-hand woman in the Time Bureau, who is exasperated by both the Legends' antics and Rip's belief that they still have a role to play in protecting time. She eventually and ironically winds up falling in love with Sara and befriending her crew, becoming a frequent ally on their crazy endeavors. Her boss' rather gruesome death at the hands of Grodd allowed her to take over as Director of the Time Bureau from then on. Later they become entrusted with the containment and safekeeping of Fugitives, magical creatures that emerged after the Legends released Mallus to destroy him once and for all.\ |
| 149 | |
| 150 | Unfortunately, due to events perpetrated by the demon Neron, the Time Bureau was indefinitely closed. So now Ava has taken refuge upon her girlfriend's timeship as she adjusts to her new life as the Legends' co-captain. They get married at the end of season 6. |
| 151 | ---- |
| 152 | * ActionGirl: Can hold her own against [[ProfessionalKiller Sara]] in hand-to-hand combat. |
| 153 | * ArtificialHuman: She's of a series of mass produced clones from the 23rd century engineered from desired traits sampled across the globe. |
| 154 | * BadassNormal: Not just ''a'' Badass Normal, she's ''the'' Badass Normal. Being an ArtificialHuman genetically designed to be the peak of human perfection. |
| 155 | * BadassInANiceSuit: She can kick some serious ass, though the Legends have some questions about her fashion tastes. |
| 156 | * BadBoss: It's glossed over pretty quickly, but she mentions that she made Gary work overtime with no extra pay at least once. As she notes, that's illegal. |
| 157 | * BelligerentSexualTension: She initially had an extremely antagonistic relationship with the Legends, and with Sara in particular. Even after Sara saves her life, the two of them make no secret of their hatred for each other and even have an intense one-on-one fight. [[InterplayOfSexAndViolence Then they start making out.]] |
| 158 | %% Doesn't explain what the reaction is. * BerserkButton: She gets peeved when someone brings up that she's a clone. |
| 159 | * TheBigDamnKiss: With Sara, on various occasions. |
| 160 | * BirdsOfAFeather: With Sara. Both are strict but commendable leaders of organizations dedicated to protect the timestream. Both are awkward as all hell in normal dating settings, but come alive during combat. Indeed, TheBigDamnKiss comes when both of them realize they want the other to just be themselves. |
| 161 | * ButtMonkey: She's constantly on the short end of the stick due to how no one takes her straight-laced and strict attitude seriously. |
| 162 | * CanNotSpitItOut: Towards Sara, even something that Gideon uses as a element for a simulation to combat Zari being in a coma. |
| 163 | * CanonForeigner: Does not exist in any other [[Creator/DCComics DC]] continuity, and was created solely for the show. |
| 164 | * CantHoldHisLiquor: She gets blitzed during a mission after the Time Bureau is shut down. Then, during the Legends' afterparty from defeating the Fates, Mick finds her passed out on the toilet and she comes close to throwing up several times. |
| 165 | * TheChainsOfCommanding: Every time she is put in charge of the Legends, she has a hard time being taken seriously. |
| 166 | * CharacterizationMarchesOn: The unlikable HeroAntagonist who clashed with Sara and the Legends multiple times is all but gone midway through Season Three, once she and Sara get over their BelligerentSexualTension and start dating for real. From then on she becomes a FriendOnTheForce for the Legends to the Time Bureau. As of Season 5, she becomes a downright ButtMonkey due to how socially awkward she can be. |
| 167 | * ClingyJealousGirl: Admits to being jealous when John Constantine mentions his past history with Sara. She also writes a ''nasty'' condolence card in regards to Oliver's death (Sara was once his mistress when he was dating Laurel). The only reason she doesn't give it to Sara is because she overhears how much Sara dislikes them. |
| 168 | -->'''Ava:''' I didn't think my card was awkward. |
| 169 | * CloneAngst: Once she finds out she's a clone and all her memories are false, she begins to doubt her sense of individuality. Being Ava #12 according to Rip doesn't make it any better. |
| 170 | * DarkSecret: Rip is determined that Sara never finds out the "truth" about her. Turns out she's a clone from 2213 who's been given false memories. |
| 171 | * DatingCatwoman: {{Downplayed}}, but it's there. Ava works for the Time Bureau and thus prefers to do things by the book. The woman she's in love with tends to toss that book out, ignore the rules and do whatever she needs to get the job done. |
| 172 | * DefrostingIceQueen: In the first half of Season 3, she is completely frosty and aloof to pretty much everyone around her. She shows hints of defrosting in the mid-finale of season 3 and mellows out completely by the time [[LoveRedeems she starts a relationship with Sara]]. |
| 173 | * DreadfulMusician: If "Miss Me, Kiss Me, Love Me" is any indication, at the very least when she's had plenty of drinks in her. |
| 174 | * EtTuBrute: She stands by and does nothing as Bennett arrests Rip. However, she comes to regret this when she hears proof from Sara that Rip was absolutely right to worry about Mallus, especially since his minions led by Darhk begin wreaking havoc. |
| 175 | * EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Or rather, even the ''gays'' want her. When Leo Snart calls her and Sara Lance both super hot, he responds to Sara's confusion by saying that he's "gay, not ''blind.''" |
| 176 | * ExpendableClone: She's an ArtificialHuman that Rip purchased from the future, due to needing a top agent who was replaceable. Multiple Avas have already perished in the past, to which Rip brings in another Ava to replace her. The current Ava is the twelfth one. |
| 177 | * ExpositoryHairstyleChange: As time goes on, she literally lets her hair down more often and starts acting a lot friendlier around the Legends. |
| 178 | * {{Expy}}: Has ''a lot'' of similarities to Olivia Dunham from ''Series/{{Fringe}}''. The blonde hair, pants suit (in dour black with white shirt), and emotional distance (at least at first) are all comparable to Olivia. |
| 179 | * FairCop: Especially when she lets her hair down. |
| 180 | * FoeRomanceSubtext: With Sara. It rather quickly stops being subtext and starts being just [[TheBigDamnKiss "text."]] |
| 181 | * {{Foil}}: To Sara. Both are blonde LGBTQ {{Action Girl}}s recruited by Rip Hunter, and both ended up replacing Rip Hunter as leaders of their respective groups. But where Sara subscribes to the ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight mentality that drove Rip to create the Legends in the first place, Ava believes in the ethics on which Rip built the Time Bureau. |
| 182 | * GoodIsNotNice: Off the job, Ava ''is'' capable of being personable to the Legends, even if she doesn't agree with their methods of restoring the timeline. On the job, she is just as dismissive of the Legends as all the other Time Bureau agents, if not more so; even after Rip allows them to keep their ship, she's determined to get him to change his mind or, failing that, take them down herself. Though she agrees to leave them alone after they turn Rip over, she still calls them "a bunch of idiots". Things don't truly improve until she helps them until partway through season 3. |
| 183 | * GreenEyedMonster: She gets incredibly jealous when she finds out John Constantine shagged Sara once. [[FromBadToWorse In a mental institution]]. She already hated him before, but that clinches it. Sara even has to outright keep her partnership with Constantine in tracking magical creatures a secret from her, though it doesn't last long. |
| 184 | * HappilyMarried: Very happily marries Sara in season 6. |
| 185 | * HeroicBSOD: By season 5, she loses her job, her home, and her purpose in life. The best she can hope to do is help Sara and the Legends with whatever they ask of her. |
| 186 | * InspectorJavert: Even after Rip allows the Legends to do their thing, she makes no secret of how much she wants to put an end to their hijinks. |
| 187 | * HonoraryAunt: Mick's daughter Lita addresses her as "Aunt Ava" at least once, mainly because Ava was always with Mick when he used time-travel to be part of Lita's life, leading to Ava building a relationship with the girl as well. |
| 188 | * TheLancer: Once she joins the Legends, she often serves as Sara's second-in-command, even filling in as Captain in a few episodes. |
| 189 | * LipstickLesbian: Sure, she wears a suit, but she also wears heels and (most of the time) has a feminine hairstyle. |
| 190 | * MarriedToTheJob: She is more concerned in stopping problems affecting the timestream than dealing with her own problems. This causes her problems when she falls in love with and starts to date Sara, though the two eventually agree to sort things out and not let work get in their way. |
| 191 | * MeanBoss: Her condescending treatment of Gary is one of the reasons he briefly joins Neron. She eventually apologizes for it. |
| 192 | * MeaningfulName: AVA stands for Advanced Variant Automation. |
| 193 | * NoSocialSkills: Being a clone recruited to be the perfect agent doesn't do her people skills any favors. She even admits as much. |
| 194 | -->'''Ava:''' “Agent Sharpe lacks a delicate touch and is extremely deficient at relating to people." That is straight from my Time Bureau personnel review. Pretty harsh... [[SelfDeprecation I wrote that review.]] |
| 195 | * NotSoAboveItAll: The essence of her CharacterDevelopment over the course of the seasons. When introduced in season 3, she's a no-nonsense government agent that is disdainful towards the Legends' wacky and somewhat lackadaisical approach to "fixing" the timeline, though she will work with them on occasion. In season 4 she's a FriendOnTheForce, and by season 5 she's a full blown [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits Legend]] that barely shows any aspects of her former straight-laced demeanor. |
| 196 | ** [[TemporalParadox In one of the screwed-up timelines that Constantine and Charlie created]], [[ItMakesSenseInContext Sara Lance was killed by the Unicorn]]. In her grief, ''she turned into a {{goth}}''. Complete with black hair, black clothes, and listening to depressing shitty music curled up in a ball and brooding. |
| 197 | * NotQuiteHuman: While A.V.A.s have human DNA, they are made in a lab and already adults from the moment they are constructed. |
| 198 | * NumberTwo: Rip's right-hand woman at the Bureau, at least until she allows Director Bennett to arrest him. Then after the Bureau is shut down, she becomes Sara's co-leader, though she has a hard time adjusting to the zany team dynamic of the Legends. |
| 199 | * OddFriendship: She develops one with Zari in season 5. |
| 200 | * OfficialCouple: With Sara starting in late season 3. |
| 201 | * {{Otaku}}: Ava has a very strong fascination with serial killers. Not only does she display encyclopedic knowledge of the killers and their victims, she also has a podcast where she discusses her favorites. |
| 202 | * PetTheDog: Despite her hostilities toward Sara, she does give the Waverider's captain her condolences upon hearing about Martin Stein's death. Later, she defies her own orders to go back and save Sara, and even says it was worth the risk, showing that she's becoming less hostile. |
| 203 | * PromotionToOpeningTitles: She's joined the regular cast list for season four. |
| 204 | * ReplacementGoldfish: She's actually the twelfth Ava to work for Rip. When one Ava dies, Rip just picks up another clone from the future. |
| 205 | * TheRival: Quickly establishes herself as one for Sara -- despite looking down on her and the team, she feels a need to outclass them in general and prove herself better than Sara in combat. She is actually able to fight her to a complete draw. A dynamic that ends up becoming very interesting once she and Sara develop an attraction for each other. |
| 206 | * SecondLove: She is Sara's Third Love, being her first serious relationship after Oliver Queen and Nyssa al Ghul. |
| 207 | * ServantRace: A.V.A.s are mass produced in the future to fulfill a multitude of roles. |
| 208 | * SheCleansUpNicely: Not that she was unattractive before, but after she lets her hair down, she looks downright beautiful. |
| 209 | * SmugSnake: Despite her extremely condescending and downright cruel attitude toward the Legends, she keeps getting in over her head with situations they end up resolving. She seems to get served a slice of HumblePie in "Beebo the God of War", to the point of helping Sara against her own orders. |
| 210 | * TomatoInTheMirror: She's actually a clone from the future, but she has no idea she's one. When she finds out, she promptly faints and subsequently flips out. |
| 211 | * TookALevelInJerkass: Towards the middle of Season 4, where she decides that [[FantasticRacism magical creatures need to be captured regardless of whether they're a threat and it doesn't matter if Hank tortures and experiments on them]]. When Sara protests and tries to save a Kaupe from the Time Bureau, Ava breaks up with her. {{Subverted|Trope}} when she later admits to Sara that she doesn't actually condone hurting the magical fugitives, [[JerkJustifications she just panicked at the thought of supporting it and got defensive, while being hurt that Sara lied to her]]. Subsequent episodes also suggest that this may have primarily been the result of MoreThanMindControl due to Neron's influence over the Bureau. |
| 212 | * TookALevelInKindness: She seems to have become less hostile in "Beebo the God of War", and sincerely tries to help the Legends, even defying her orders to go back and save Sara from Mallus. She keeps slowly defrosting from there. |
| 213 | * UngratefulBitch: Being saved by Sara does not improve her opinion about the Legends. If anything, it makes it worse. This goes away as Season 3 goes on, though. |
| 214 | --> '''Ava''': "I've got to say, Ms. Lance, now that I've seen your team in action with my own eyes, you are even ''worse'' than I imagined." |
| 215 | * VitriolicBestBuds: She has a ''very'' vitriolic friendship with Mick Rory. One episode has them insult each other in the most offensive way possible, yet they still manage to work as a team in the end. In Season 5, she ends up becoming an HonoraryAunt to Mick's daughter Lita. |
| 216 | * WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: When she finds out she's just a clone designed to be the peak of human perfection, she starts questioning whether she real since her entire life has been a lie. Sara manages to convince her that clone or not, she's still the same Ava Sharpe, the badass Director of the Time Bureau. |
| 217 | * YouAreInCommandNow: |
| 218 | ** With Bennett killed by Grodd, she becomes Director. |
| 219 | ** She's been occasionally given the reins as captain of the Waverider while Sara is away, notably in "A Head of Her Time", when Sara goes on leave to visit Star City. |

| 234 | Several months after Zari Tomaz was removed from the timeline due to the impact of Heyworld significantly changing her future, the Legends meet Zari ''Tarazi'', now a preppy internet superstar with a haughty personality. Despite being tricked on board the Waverider, she quickly makes herself at home and is allowed to stay for a while.\ |
| 235 | |
| 236 | As time goes on, Zari experiences flashbacks of her original self and eventually meets her in person. When Behrad dies in a tragic turn of events, Zari makes it her goal to bring him back and becomes a more active member of the Legends, regaining her skill in using the Air Totem and becoming a surprisingly astute infiltrator.\ |
| 237 | |
| 238 | -> see the Characters/SmallvilleOtherMajorVillains page for Isis, the Earth-167 character who shares her comic background |
| 239 | ---- |
| 240 | * AccidentalMisnaming: She refers to Gideon as "Gidget". |
| 241 | * ActionSurvivor: Contrasting her former timeline's counterpart being an ActionGirl, but she eventually become one as well after taking up her brother's totem. |
| 242 | * AdaptationalNameChange: In-universe example, as she now goes by the surname Tarazi instead of Tomaz. WordOfGod is that the name change is a result of the events of "Hey, World" making the future more tolerant to religion and religious names, so the family was never forced to change it to Tomaz. |
| 243 | * AmnesiacLover: Of a sort. Even though he doesn't remember his relationship with the original Zari, Nate is initially interested to "continue" his relationship because of the message from Zari he found in the Waverider. Unfortunately, because the new Zari is so much different from the original and has no interest in him whatsoever, the sparks never fly. The possibility of them getting together is further dashed when Zari starts eyeing Constantine and vice versa. |
| 244 | * AloofBigBrother: In contrast to their relationship in the old timeline, which was implied to be loving, she is now this to Behrad. |
| 245 | * AmnesiacResonance: She experiences brief visions of her past life when doing similar things, like wearing flannel or eating donuts. |
| 246 | * BlowYouAway: She uses more basic abilities compared her former timeline self and Behrad. |
| 247 | * BrotherSisterTeam: |
| 248 | ** Initially subverted. Though she and Behrad are part of the Legends in the first half of Season 5, Zari stays on the Waverider as an ActionSurvivor, since she can't use the Air Totem and has no self-defense skills. The same episode she regains her ability to use the totem, Behrad is killed off, rendering any sibling teamup impossible. |
| 249 | ** Played straight after Behrad is resurrected in [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]], then when the Totem is split into two so they can both use it. |
| 250 | * ColorCodedForYourConvenience: She dyes her hair light brown, contrasting her with both Behrad's and her old self's jet black hair. It becomes useful when the old Zari starts appearing back in the show. |
| 251 | * BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: While it certainly beats her whole family being dead and living in a dystopia her "improved" timeline isn't quite the perfect life her old self thought it would be either. Her relationship with her family is strained due to her Influencer lifestyle, it's implied various people tried to take advantage of her fame growing up, most of her relationships in the "Z Nation" are shallow at best and she feels an empty void in her life that was filled in the original timeline by being a Legend. |
| 252 | * BetaCouple: Despite their bickering when first meeting, she and John eventually get together as the show's secondary couple. |
| 253 | * DesperatelySeekingAPurposeInLife: The reason she's staying on the Waverider is because she wants to do something more meaningful with her life. |
| 254 | * TheFace: She can play normal people like a fiddle and is one of her greatest strengths when working with the Legends. |
| 255 | * TheFashionista: She has her own line of clothing products and perfume. |
| 256 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: In "Meet the Legends" one of the headlines on the news-crawl is "#Dragongirl is trending". Later, Behrad tells Sara, "Fame changes people." |
| 257 | * GirlinessUpgrade: Zari Tomaz was a rebellious BigEater GamerChick hacker. Zari Tarazi is a fashionable RichBitch internet celebrity. Zari Tarazi even refers to her brief moments of AmnesiacResonance as "being haunted by... someone who dresses like a teenage boy and makes me do awful things like eat donuts." |
| 258 | * HiddenDepths: She's a genuinely talented actress and can recite Shakespeare by heart, which she shows off in "Romeo v. Juliet: Dawn of Justness". Also much like Tomaz, she is a wonderful singer. |
| 259 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite her animosity toward Behrad in this timeline, she still cares for him. |
| 260 | * JustFriends: She and John attempt to maintain a no strings attached deal, but end up falling for each other. |
| 261 | * LovableAlphaBitch: At least in personality, she's not exactly the most friendly socialite when introduced. However, she later proves to be every bit the kind-hearted person that Zari 1.0 was. |
| 262 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: As the rite of passage all Legends (even temporary ones) go through sooner or later, she causes problems with her own future. After discovering her perfume is slated to be a colossal failure, she takes Marie Antoinette's magic charm perfume to an expo and accidentally spills it, causing the nearby vicinity to be mesmerized by her presence. |
| 263 | * ObfuscatingStupidity: Despite her flighty and airheaded personality, she's very shrewd and intelligent. She just chooses not to show it as she believes her fans don't care about her smarts. |
| 264 | * OddFriendship: After some back and forth, she and Ava begin to get along. |
| 265 | * RebelliousSpirit: Carried over from the other version of her, she wants to stand out from everyone and follows her own rules. |
| 266 | * RichBitch: She fits the stereotype quite well when she first appears. |
| 267 | * SameCharacterButDifferent: She's still Zari, but due to the timeline changes is effectively a completely different character with a completely different personality from her old self with virtually no knowledge of her past life aside from [[AmnesiacResonance brief flashes]]. |
| 268 | * ShipTease: Starting with "The Great British Fake-Off", she and Constantine get several moments together teasing the two, which becomes official by the following season. |
| 269 | * {{Socialite}}: Deconstructed when she tells Ava that she spends her time at galas and fundraisers because she doesn't know where she belongs. |
| 270 | * TakingUpTheMantle: When Behrad is killed by Atropos in "Zari, Not Zari", she takes up the Air Totem into place as she did pre-Heyworld. Interestingly, Behrad is later resurrected, paving the way for a BrotherSisterTeam. |
| 271 | * TookALevelInBadass: Slowly trains herself with the Air Totem, until she grows as skilled as her original self. |
| 272 | * TookALevelInKindness: Season 5 of ''Legends'' is basically a chronicle of how the new Zari transforms from a shallow celebrity into the caring hero like she was before the Heyworld incident. |
| 273 | * UnfazedEveryman: She is one upon joining the Legends, as she is unable to use the Air Totem. This continues until she [[TookALevelInBadass takes a level in badass]] after "Zari, Not Zari". |
| 274 | * WomanChild: She's in her late 20s-early 30s but acts like a preppy teenager. |
| 275 | * YourMakeupIsRunning: In "Zari, Not Zari", she mourns Behrad's death so hard that her makeup is visibly running when she confronts Constantine. |

| 287 | |
| 288 | The daughter of Natalie Logue, John Constantine's childhood friend. After her mother's untimely death, John attempted to resurrect her, only to have Astra taken to Hell as payment. For this act, Constantine's soul was damned for all eternity and he spent the next several years attempting to rescue her from her fate. He finally got his chance in 2019...\ |
| 289 | |
| 290 | Unfortunately for him, her time in Hell took a toll on her. Taken in by Lachesis - one of the three Fates - and manipulated to express her negative emotions, Astra's hatred and anger prematurely aged her into an adult who was allowed to enter the demon hierarchy rather than be tormented.\ |
| 291 | |
| 292 | With Neron defeated by the Legends, Astra sets the resurrected souls of the dead to torment the Legends and get back at Constantine, whom she still blames for her time in Hell and failing to bring her mother back. After a while, however, Astra realizes that Lachesis was just using her so she can get close to the Legends and therefore the Loom of Fate. As a result, she has an internal conflict regarding her allegiance and goals. When one of the Fates finds out about this and severely punishes her for it, [[HeelFaceTurn she settles to side with the Legends for good]]. |
| 293 | ---- |
| 294 | * AbortedArc: Her original goal to rule over all of Hell ends up being forgotten after a few episodes once she learns that Constantine can save her and her mother from his mistakes. |
| 295 | * AdaptationalBadass: Comics Astra never became a villain and hence never acquired the powers that come with it. |
| 296 | * AdaptationalVillainy: In the comics, Astra was never corrupted by her time in Hell and indeed stayed a child until John finally rescued her. Here she's been corrupted and doesn't come around until much later. |
| 297 | * AmbitionIsEvil: Literally, she wants to rise in the demon hierarchy in Hell and with Neron out of the picture, she's free to do just that. |
| 298 | * AntiVillain: For all her villainous actions, deep down, she's still the scared, frightened child she was half a decade ago. Once Constantine vows to save her and bring her mother back, she begins to soften up. By the end of the season, she becomes an AntiHero like most of the other Legends. |
| 299 | * AscendedExtra: Astra only served as a motivational part in John's backstory, while here she gets upgraded to a major villain and later (unlikely) hero in Season 5. |
| 300 | * BackFromTheDead: She is killed by Atropos in [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E12IAmLegends "I Am Legends"]]. [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]] reveals that, alongside Behrad, Gary, and Sara, she is resurrected using the Loom of Fate. |
| 301 | * BadBoss: In "The Great British Fake-Off", she stabs her demon assistant upon finding out that he failed to protect her coins. Though she claims that he will heal eventually. |
| 302 | * BreakTheCutie: Both Pre-Crisis and Post-Crisis. |
| 303 | ** Pre-Crisis: She had the misfortune to be possessed by a demon. And then John had the bright idea to summon Nergal to order the lesser demon away. Nergal ''did'' ...and took Astra with him. |
| 304 | ** Post-Crisis: She lost her mother at a young age. Then, when Constantine decides to bring her back, the deal was successful but Astra was taken in exchange. [[ShootTheShaggyDog Her mother then took her own life anyway out of grief and guilt]]. |
| 305 | * TheCameo: Bailey Tippen returns in the third season of ''Legends of Tomorrow'' for a brief voice cameo, when Mallus (while possessing Sara) glamours his voice to be Astra's in an attempt to manipulate Constantine. |
| 306 | * CharacterDevelopment: She starts out as a ruthless ArcVillain and even after she joins the Legends, she has a rough edge around her as a TokenEvilTeammate for a while and sometimes has a hard time dealing with others. However, towards the end of the seventh season, she's come to genuinely learn the meaning of friendship and doesn't want to be parted from the other Legends, especially Spooner. |
| 307 | * ChekhovsGunman: She was originally just part of John's backstory the girl he couldn't save because of his own arrogance and the guilt driving him to redemption. Who would've thought she'd come back five years later as a villain? |
| 308 | * CompositeCharacter: The whole thing about her becoming a power-player in Hell seems to be loosely inspired by [[spoiler: Ellie the succubus in the finale of Creator/GarthEnnis's run on ''Comicbook/{{Hellblazer}}'', who has taken Astra's form and is apparently working with the First of the Fallen.]] |
| 309 | * CosmicRetcon: Crisis alters the events of her being sent to Hell. Rather than John summoning a demon as an attempt to show off, he summoned a demon in a bid to bring Astra’s mother back to life. However, the demon still ended up snatching Astra once the deed was done and she would go on to blame John for the predicament, so the end result was the same. |
| 310 | * DarkMagicalGirl: She learned magic while stuck in Hell, with Constantine telling her she inherited Natalie's affinity to it. She also fits the role personality-wise. |
| 311 | * DespairEventHorizon: She's well past it once Constantine comes for her, with the second half of season 5 gradually getting her back out of it. |
| 312 | * DiscOneFinalBoss: She is the ArcVillain for a few episodes of Season 5, before she strikes a deal with Constantine to not kill him until he can reunite her family. Later it's revealed she was never the one running the show to begin with, as Lachesis had been pulling her strings from behind the scenes. |
| 313 | * DisneyDeath: She's killed by Atropos, but revived by Charlie when the Fates use the Loom. |
| 314 | * DraggedOffToHell: Quite literally, in her case. |
| 315 | * EnemyMine: She helps John and Nora free Ray's soul from Neron's vault, because she needs Neron out of the way to further her own ambitions. |
| 316 | * EvilCounterpart: To John, with both being occult masters who have dealings with demons and Hell, only Astra opposes the heroes. She gets better later on and garduates to ShadowArchetype. |
| 317 | * FateWorseThanDeath: She's a mortal who was sent to Hell while skipping the "dying" step, needless to say this qualifies. |
| 318 | * TheFriendNobodyLikes: Since she started out as a villain hunting them down, Astra obviously has difficulty fitting in with the Legends when she joins the group midway through season 5. |
| 319 | * TheHeavy: At first she seems like the BigBad for Season 5 of ''Legends'', due to her bringing back the damned souls she's restored to life. Later we find out she’s manipulated by Lachesis. |
| 320 | * HeelFaceDoorSlam: Briefly, in [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E12IAmLegends "I Am Legends"]]. After being forced to work with Lachesis and Atropos again, Gary manages to make her reconsider...only for Atropos to kill her. [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]] reveals that she is resurrected by Charlie using the Loom of Fate and, like the Legends, put inside a TV show to prevent Lachesis and Atropos from harming her again, giving her a second chance to atone for her past actions. |
| 321 | * HeelFaceTurn: After a few episodes being conflicted about her ideals and goals, she sides with the Legends for good in [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]]. |
| 322 | * InTheBlood: She inherited her late mother's talent for magic. This allows her to help the Legends destroy the Loom once it falls into the Fates' hands. |
| 323 | * ILetGwenStacyDie: John blames himself for her eternal damnation, since he summoned the demon who abducted her to Hell as a child. |
| 324 | * {{Manchild}}: She's prone to anger and engages in petty but deadly revenge against Constantine so he will be persuaded to resurrect her mother (i.e. a temper tantrum). FridgeBrilliance when you realize that Astra ''is'' still a child on the inside. |
| 325 | * MurderIsTheBestSolution: Thanks to being corrupted by Hell, Astra always prioritizes violence before everything else when it comes to conflict resolution. In "Freaks and Greeks", she attempts to gain control of a sorority by ''disabling their carbon monoxide detectors''. |
| 326 | -->'''Astra:''' I have an idea— |
| 327 | -->'''Ava:''' No. One that doesn't involve any maiming. |
| 328 | * NotHisSled: In the comics, John did manage to rescue her and send her to Heaven. Here she's been corrupted by Hell and refuses the chance to leave as spite for John failing her all those years ago. She does end up saved at the end, even joining the Legends. |
| 329 | * NotMeThisTime: Since Astra is a villain for some time, when she joins the Legends she is naturally a suspect whenever things go worse for the heroes. |
| 330 | ** In "The Great British Fake-Off", everyone suspects that Astra renegades her deal with Constantine when Encores start hunting him and Zari. Turns out it was Lachesis stealing the coins without her knowing. |
| 331 | ** And in "Ship Broken", she is the first suspect when the ''Waverider'' got sabotaged and fragments of the Loom went missing. Both are the results of Marchosias the hellhound being aboard the ship. |
| 332 | * RaceLift: Astra is white in the comics but black in the show. |
| 333 | * RedemptionEqualsDeath: After being forced to work with Lachesis and Atropos again, Gary manages to make her reconsider... only for Atropos to kill her. Though [[BackFromTheDead it doesn't stick.]] |
| 334 | * ReformedButNotTamed: Her first focus episode in season 6 has her making a deal with Creator/AleisterCrowley to regain her magic and trapping the Legends in the form of objects. Oh, and she still has at least some of those soul coins. However, she couldn't go through with using an {{Asshole Victim}}'s soul to power an artifact. |
| 335 | * ShipTease: In [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E13TheOneWhereWereTrappedOnTV "The One Where We're Trapped On TV"]], there's a bit with Behrad, who is arranged to be married to her in a ''Hightown Abbey'' production. She brushes him off, though. They later get more shipping moments in Season 7 and eventually become an official couple. |
| 336 | * ASinisterClue: She's a villain and is presumably left-handed based on the way she holds a knife and fork in "[[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS5E2MissMeKissMeLoveMe Miss Me, Kiss Me, Love Me]]". |
| 337 | * SparedByTheAdaptation: In a sense. Both her soul ''and'' body were damned in this series, so she isn't technically considered deceased. She does die near the end of the season but is promptly revived. |
| 338 | * StatuesqueStunner: She is 5 feet 10 and additionally almost always wears heels. |
| 339 | * TokenEvilTeammate: Joins forces with the Legends after the first half of Season 5, but has obviously a very hard time fitting in. After Atropos kills her and Charlie brings her back using the Loom, however, she seems to have made up her mind to side with the Legends. |
| 340 | * UsedToBeASweetKid: No innocent child is bound to do well in Hell, as she can attest to. |
| 341 | * WalkingSpoiler: A character from John's backstory who not only becomes evil, but the DiscOneFinalBoss of ''Legends'' Season 5. Then joins the Legends proper in the finale. |
| 342 | * YoungerThanTheyLook: She was taken to Hell when she was only a little girl. But during her time there, her body has aged around two decades in five years' time. |

| 356 | |
| 357 | A woman who lives off the grid, she was visited by aliens as a child and has a device implanted in her that can understand other lifeforms. The Legends come to ask for her assistance in rescuing Sara, which she begrudgingly accepts. |
| 358 | ---- |
| 359 | * AlternateSelf: Has one on [[Series/{{Lucifer|2016}} Earth-666]] who is a [[Recap/Lucifer2016S01E09APriestWalksIntoABar drug dealer]]. |
| 360 | * BloodKnight: She's a bit too gung-ho when it comes to killing aliens. |
| 361 | * CanonForeigner: Spooner doesn't exist in any previous DC comics and was solely created for the show. |
| 362 | * CrazyPrepared: She's spent the last couple decades being ready if aliens came after her again. |
| 363 | * CynicismCatalyst: She and her mother were abducted by aliens, but while she was returned, her mother never came back. She eventually told herself that she was never coming back until joining the Legends gave her a chance to find out what happened to her mom. |
| 364 | * TheEmpath: One aspect of her power is that she is able to sense not just the presence of aliens but their emotions as well, especially if they are hungry or out for blood. |
| 365 | * EmotionBomb: Spooner learns that [[spoiler: she can extend her psychic connection to others, specifically by inflicting waves of emotion that cause physical pain. She uses this on the oil men that killed her mother, forcing them to suffer the years of isolation and trauma that she had to endure all at once to the point they collapse on the spot]]. |
| 366 | * FishOutOfTemporalWater: [[spoiler: The penultimate episode of season 6 reveals Spooner was an unknowing one; as a child she lived in Texas during the 1920s. After her mother was killed by a greedy oil baron she ran, stumbling across the Fountain of Imperium. The Fountain spirited her to safety and transported her to the future where she lost a large chunk of her early memories, left only with the traumatic feeling that her mother was taken from her]]. |
| 367 | * GadgeteerGenius: All of the weapons that she uses to ward off aliens were all designed and built from scratch. |
| 368 | * HiddenDepths: "The Final Frame" shows she's a talented bowler. She explains one of her foster families took her bowling often as a way to keep her out of trouble. |
| 369 | * LateComingOut: Didn't come out as asexual until after she joined the Legends. Mostly because she had no idea asexuality was even a ''thing''. |
| 370 | * MySignificanceSenseIsTingling: Spooner's main power is her ability to detect the presence of aliens and alien activity, which typically manifests as a ringing headache. |
| 371 | * NakedPeopleAreFunny: When the Legends are trapped in a reality show in Hell, Spooner proceeds to strip off her clothes and walk around naked the whole time as part of her strategy to win. |
| 372 | * TheNapoleon: Spooner is 5 foot 2, by far the shortest Legend, and is also rather hot-tempered. |
| 373 | * OddFriendship: Spooner has this with Astra. Spooner is a short, Hispanic woman with a history of UFO abduction and alien telepathy. Astra is a tall, black lady with a history of dealing with demons in Hell, having grown up there for much of her life, and becoming a DarkMagicalGirl as a result. The two of them couldn't be more different but yet end up becoming close friends. |
| 374 | ** Also with Zari 2.0, where they originally struggle to connect but eventually bond over the wild circumstances of their lives and their love of talking smack about others. |
| 375 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: The Legends only ever refer to her as Spooner, rather than her birth name of Esperanza. |
| 376 | * PowersAsPrograms: The sixth season finale expands upon her powers [[spoiler: as a result of her link to the Fountain of Imperium. Extending said link to her teammates Spooner discovers she is able to absorb their skills and superpowers and gift them to the other Legends at will. This even extends to ostensibly magical powers like Astra's spellcasting and the Tarazi siblings' use of their Zambesi Totems]]. |
| 377 | * SmallGirlBigGun: Spooner is a short woman and one of her main weapons is a rifle that is practically the size of a portable gatling gun. |
| 378 | * SpicyLatina: The first Latine member of the Legends, and ticks off a number of the trope's hallmarks: HotBlooded with an attitude, action-prone and is a practising Catholic. |
| 379 | * {{Telepathy}}: Spooner has a variety of this, limited only to extraterrestrial life-forms. However in "Bad Blood," she is able to telepathically communicate with Fernando, who is human, but this may be because [[spoiler: like Spooner he was also granted powers by the Fountain of Imperium]]. |
| 380 | * TinfoilHat: Admits that she used to wear tinfoil hats as a child to prevent aliens from finding her, and as an adult continues to do so by lining the inside of her hats with aluminum. |
| 381 | * TouchedByVorlons: "There Will Be Brood" reveals the source of her powers: [[spoiler: she encountered the Fountain of Imperium as a child, which is revealed to be a network of [[AlienKudzu alien]] [[MagicMushroom fungi]] that detects and defends the Earth from hostile otherworldly activity. The Fountain abducted young Esperanza and as a result bonded with her and forged a psychic connection that gave her the ability to sense other aliens and communicate with them]]. |
| 382 | * TranslatorMicrobes: Her "alien sense" allows her to understand extraterrestrials, even conversing with them in their native languages. |
| 383 | * TwoferTokenMinority: Is a Latina and comes out as ace to Zari 2.0 in ''The Fixed Point.'' |

| 395 | A rather nebbish and bumbling former time agent who kept getting mixed up with the Legends. After [[FaceHeelTurn a brief turn to the dark side for all his misfortunes]], he requests his new fairy godmother, Nora Darhk, to make him Constantine's apprentice in exchange for her freedom and becomes a member of the Legends. |
| 396 | ---- |
| 397 | * AlienAmongUs: [[spoiler:The opening of Season 6 reveals him to have been undercover to study humans.]] |
| 398 | * AlliterativeName: '''G'''ary '''G'''reen. |
| 399 | * AntiVillain: The only reason he turns on everyone is out of a desire to be appreciated. |
| 400 | * TheApprentice: Before releasing Nora, he wishes to become Constantine's magical apprentice, which the latter begrudgingly has to accept. |
| 401 | * BlackHoleBelly: [[spoiler:This appears to be a trait of his species, the Necrians, who are roughly the same size as humans but can [[ToServeMan eat them]] [[SwallowedWhole whole]] without suffering any visible bulging. Gary himself eats ''four'' Ava clones in one scene but remains the same size.]] |
| 402 | * BumblingSidekick: For both the Bureau and the Legends, Gary's job is to be the clumsy ButtMonkey who messes up and on the receiving end of everyone's jokes. |
| 403 | * ButtMonkey: Might be the biggest one in the entire Arrowverse. Things never go right for him, no one holds any respect for him, and his only purpose seems to be the writer's punching bag. |
| 404 | ** Gideon even puts him in the trash compactor of Zari's simulation just because she thought it would be funny. |
| 405 | ** This gets a brutal {{Deconstruction}} in "Egg [=MacGuffin=]", where it's revealed he's well aware of his status and thoroughly ''hates'' it. Neron uses this - and his lost nipple - to tempt him over to his side. |
| 406 | * CanonForeigner: Does not exist in any other [[Creator/DCComics DC]] continuity, and was created solely for the show. [[spoiler: This goes double for his true species, Necrian, an alien species that was also created specifically for the show]]. |
| 407 | * CerebusCallback: His mistreatment by the Bureau and Legends comes back to bite them near the end of season 4. |
| 408 | * CoolAndUnusualPunishment: He abducts his friends and coworkers... in order to let him into their book club that they halfheartedly even organize in the first place. |
| 409 | * DareToBeBadass: He has his moments, even managing to trick a god with his intermediate magic despite knowing he's way in over his head. |
| 410 | * DoggedNiceGuy: To Ava, Mona, [[OppositesAttract but apparently not Constantine.]] |
| 411 | * DudeWheresMyRespect: A significant reason for him making a deal with Neron to get his nipple back. |
| 412 | * EasilyForgiven: He seems to get off the hook fairly easily after getting his revenge on the Legends, though likely due to his reasons for what he did and that being [[ButtMonkey himself]] was punishment enough. |
| 413 | * FailureIsTheOnlyOption: He's unable to do anything right. |
| 414 | * FakeGuestStar: He starts as a recurring character in season three, then appears in three quarters of the episodes of season four (after already appearing in half of the episodes of season three)[[note]]source: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm2267372/[[/note]], yet still receives guest billing. Even a number of the regular actors have around the same number of appearances per season. This again similarly happens the following year in season five. Finally averted for season six, when Adam Tsekhman gets [[PromotionToOpeningTitles promoted]] to main character. |
| 415 | * {{Geek}}: Is a huge geek, who wears NerdGlasses and plays ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''. |
| 416 | * GuestStarPartyMember: He’s the Time Agent who most frequently finds himself getting tangled with the Legends’ adventures. Then after they talk him out of being Neron's minion, he becomes a Legend himself. |
| 417 | * HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: In the last stretch of season 4. Neron is able to use his resentment of being the ButtMonkey and the return of his nipple to seduce him to his side. After the Legends and Ava apologize for their crappy treatment of him, and him realizing that he just wants to have some respect and is bad at being evil, he returns to the right side again. |
| 418 | * HeroicWannabe: He's pretty ineffective in his field assignments; the Legends either have to bail him out or notice him when he's trying to be incognito. |
| 419 | * HiddenDepths: He occasionally delivers very useful advice for the other Legends, such as to Mick when he was having trouble bonding with his daughter. |
| 420 | * IgnoredEnamoredUnderling: He alludes to having a crush on Ava while she's his boss multiple times, which she appears oblivious to. Although he still "ships" her and Sara. |
| 421 | * JewishAndNerdy: He's scrawny, he wears glasses, gets [[NoRespectGuy no respect]] and is also Jewish (although this last part is cast in doubt due to season 6's revelations about his true identity). |
| 422 | * MinionWithAnFInEvil: Aside from a few [[PokeThePoodle petty things]], he is absolutely unable to do genuinely bad things, which leads to him pulling a HeelFaceTurn very shortly after his FaceHeelTurn again. |
| 423 | * NiceGuy: Annoying as he might be at times, the guy doesn't have a single bad bone in himself, which is also a big reason on why he fails so spectacularly as a villain. |
| 424 | * OddFriendship: With John Constantine all of people, possibly because of StrangeMindsThinkAlike. He even uses his Fairy Godmother to make him his apprentice, much to John's chagrin. |
| 425 | * NotSoDifferentRemark: Sara points out to him that, being a loser, he fits a key criteria of being a Legend that the others do as well. |
| 426 | * PluckyComicRelief: In an already silly show, he's there to be the butt of every joke. |
| 427 | * PokeThePoodle: A majority of his actions when evil aren't exactly the most devious. The worst he does is [[BrainwashedAndCrazy hypnotize the entire Bureau]]... [[MundaneUtility into liking him]]. |
| 428 | * ProfessionalButtKisser: For Constantine after he joins him. |
| 429 | * RuleOfFunny: He shouldn't have been able to remember when Mick called him a "Time Dweeb" in Gideon's simulation for any reason except this trope. |
| 430 | * SharpDressedMan: He is usually seen wearing a nice suit in seasons 3 and 4, a {{foil}} to [[ButtMonkey his personality]]. After the Time Bureau is disbanded in season 5 he stops wearing the suit jacket but still wears a business casual dress shirt and a tie. |
| 431 | * ShipperOnDeck: For Sara and Ava, as revealed in "I, Ava". |
| 432 | * TookALevelInBadass: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] example, but in season 5 he is training as a sorcerer under John Constantine, meaning he's one of the Legends' go-to characters on magic after Constantine, particularly after Nora leaves. While one might expect a [[ButtMonkey comic-relief]] character like him to screw up often, his spells do surprisingly work correctly most of the time. He even dares to seal the rings from two very angry Fates, doesn't crack under the threat of torture and manages to make Astra reconsider going back to the dark side. |
| 433 | * TraumaButton: He has a PTS-like reaction to the word "high school." |
| 434 | * WeakWilled: What does Neron use to turn Gary over to side? His lost nipple! That, and the promise of respect, but it was the sight of the nipple that sweetened the deal. |
| 435 | * WhosLaughingNow: Much of his motivation in going over to Neron's side is being treated as a ButtMonkey by the Legends and the Time Bureau, and he even pointedly asks the Legends "Who's the joke, now?" while tormenting them with the Fairy Godmother's powers. |

| 451 | An eccentric scientist from the early 20th century. |
| 452 | ---- |
| 453 | * CanonForeigner: Like many of the later Legends, Gwyn was created specifically for the show. |
| 454 | * ContrastingReplacementCharacter: He's basically the Anti-John Constantine. Constantine's all about magic, Gwyn's a man of science. Constantine's from [[OopNorth Liverpool]], Gwyn speaks with an upper class accent. Constantine will happily sleep with anyone who's even remotely attracted to men, Gwyn's a very sexually repressed closeted homosexual. Constantine is [[FantasticallyIndifferent indifferent to religion to spite constantly being presented with indisputable proof of the Divine,]] Gwyn's a devout catholic. Constantine's happy to fight demons, have adventures in Hell or even make the occasional DealWithTheDevil, Gwyn's biggest fear is going to Hell. |
| 455 | * GadgeteerGenius: Historically considered the pioneer of time travel technology, leading the Legends to seek him out to actually invent a time machine for them. |
| 456 | * {{Gayngst}}: He's a gay man from the early 20th century who also happens to be very devoutly religious, and as a result, he believes he will never be acceptable in God's eyes. This is the reason he believes his quest to save the life of Alun, the man he loved, is a sacred one; the only way he can rationalize his sexuality to himself is by convincing himself that God is using his feelings for a higher purpose -- but he also believes he and Alun can never be together, and that spending his life alone is his penance. Ava argues otherwise, telling him that she's sure that if there is a God, [[PronounTrouble he, she, they or whatever pronoun they prefer]] would want him to experience love and be happy. |
| 457 | * IdenticalStranger: To [[Series/{{Constantine}} John Constantine]]. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]], with the Legends remarking that he looks every other ex-Legend ''but'' Constantine. Only Zari 2.0 clocks it, and even that is in passing. |
| 458 | * NonActionGuy: He's more of a thinker than a fighter. Even his time during the military was more as a strategist than fighting on the frontlines. |
| 459 | * RealLifeWritesThePlot: Since John Constantine had to depart the team, his actor, Creator/MattRyan, got given a new character to play so he could stay a part of the cast. |
| 460 | * TheSmartGuy: As he was hired specifically for his scientific prowess, this makes him this for the Legends. |
| 461 | * SmartPeopleWearGlasses: Dons a pair of specks to showcase his status as a genius scientist. |
