    The Wirecats 

The Team as a Whole

  • All of the Other Reindeer: Each of them have various disabilities, neurodivergences, and other differences that make their lives difficult, but it also brought them together.
  • Animal Motifs: All of their armors are based on some kind of animal.
  • Four-Temperament Ensemble: Sanguine: Mela Choleric: K.A. Plegmatic: Bryce Melancholic: Lamar
  • Gadgeteer Genius: All of them, to some extent, are brilliant engineers and programmers.
  • Handicapped Badass: All of them have some sort of disability. The Powered Armor that began their careers as super heroes started out as assistive technology.
  • Kid Hero: Deconstructed right off the bat. Things did not go well for these kids.
  • Powered Armor: Their M.O.
  • Sentai: The group had this sort or vibe, before it disbanded.

Kristina Asuka “K.A” Percival

  • Break the Cutie: The story starts off at a monumental low point for her, and seeing the contrast between her hopeful younger self and her older self, only moments later from her point of view, is stark.
  • The Cape: K.A. means nothing but good and goes out of her way to help others, even if it's ill-advised to do so.
  • Fish out of Temporal Water: A downplayed example, K.A. was in a coma for five years. However, the shock of everything she’s missed has so far is already taking a toll on her.
  • Good Morning, Crono: The story begins with her waking up from a five-year coma. Things quickly go downhill from there.
  • Hero Does Public Service: Doesn't even hesitate to spring into action when she sees an opportunity to help.
  • Kind Hearted Cat Lover: Very fond of felines. She even has cats wandering around her workspace in flashbacks.
  • Super-Speed: Her Powered Armor allows her to run at superhuman speeds. She gets even faster after she upgrades herself.
  • Wide-Eyed Idealist: Despite waking up to a less-than-ideal situation, K.A. maintains her idealistic outlook and does all she can to help.

Jonathan James Bryce

  • Break the Cutie: Bryce was a very enthusiastic, optimistic kid. Now, not so much.
  • Hero Does Public Service: Like K.A., despite everything, Bryce does want to make the world a better place. He's a lot less sure of himself these days, though.
  • Jade-Colored Glasses: It’s clear that the disbanding of the team was a significant blow to him. He is much less of an idealist than he was in the flashbacks.
  • Last-Name Basis: Everyone calls him Bryce.

Lamar Anderson

  • The Cynic: Even as a kid, he was a bit sour, assuming nobody would care what he has to say simply because of his disability.
  • The Speechless: Defied. Although he is mute, he developed technology to help him communicate.
  • The Stoic: Lamar is the least excitable of the group.

Melanie “Mela” Sanchez

Tadeo

  • Early-Bird Cameo: He was the one driving the limo when Bryce came to pick K.A. up from the hospital.
  • Legacy Character: He is taking on Bryce's role.
  • Sixth Ranger: Seems to fit this role for the rest of the team.
  • The Stoic: Shaken by Bryce's slowly degrading mental health, but doesn't take it personally and is generally the least distressed and conflicted member of the group.

Other Characters

Mr. Percival

Tabbi

  • Don't You Dare Pity Me!: Thinks K.A. is condescending at first, but comes around when K.A. shows that she truly cares and is grappling with her own struggles.
  • Interrupted Suicide: K.A.’s first act of heroism after coming out of her coma is saving her from attempted suicide.
  • Punny Name: Tabbi, as in tabby cat. Possibly a Meaningful Name hinting at the possibility that she might join the Wirecats in the future.
