 * PS238
 * Formerly of: Union of Justice

A description of the character goes here.


 * Almighty Janitor: His job is quite a bit more than 'janitor', but he doesn't come across as 'teaching staff' normally. He's the maintenance guy for PS238. Which he designed and built.

 * Gentle Giant
 * Nigh Invulnerable: He's been driven something like four feet into concrete flooring by a blow to the head. It doesn't seem to have done much more than stun him briefly (and leave him stuck).
 * Shapeshifter Mode Lock: Max may be a massively strong, stone-tough bruiser that's more than seven feet tall, but he's pretty much stuck that way, which isn't much fun. He doesn't fit through doorways very well, can't move very fast and he can't even wear shoes, since they just kind of... burst.

 * Revenant (field agent)
 * Age: 8

A description of the character goes here.


 * Animal Eye Spy: With insects.
 * The Beast Master/Speaks Fluent Animal: Talks to and commands insects. This is quite useful to him - flies make excellent bugs, and even high-tech powered armour can be inconvenienced by a big swarm of bees.

("Absolute Powers")



 * Affiliation:
 * PS238 (student)
 * Nuclear Family

 * Reality Warper
 * Teleporter Accident: He is a walking Teleporter Accident. It's never directly harmful to himself nor (so far) other human beings, but the portal itself (if any) and/or something inanimate carried or in immediate vicinity of either origin or destination points is likely to end up... twisted.

 * Age: 8

A normal boy with two very famous heroes for parents. They wonder why he hasn't got any powers, but he is sent to school "just in case".

"Tyler's diary: My parents put me here because they think I'll get powers someday. They don't seem to understand that if a blue boy who weighs a couple hundred pounds drops something big and metal on you, it doesn't matter if you were GOING to get powers someday."
 * Action Survivor
 * Badass Normal: In training at least.
 * The Chew Toy
 * Grappling Hook Pistol: Tyler's still getting the hang of it. Hilarity Ensues. Interestingly, it's about the size of the MythBusters model, and thus is worn as a sizeable forearm bracer rather than sitting in the utility belt.
 * The Jinx: A very directed and specific one, aimed mainly at Captain Clarinet.
 * Only Sane Man
 * Ridiculously Average Guy: It's right on the cover - Issue 03: The Amazing Adventures of the Uncannily Incredible Perfectly Ordinary Boy.
 * Seen It All: . «I don't think anything can upset me any more».
 * Shrouded in Myth: Amongst the PS238 students Moon Shadow gains a near-mythical reputation and huge cult following who equate him to the superhero version of Chuck Norris, including everyone thinking he has a ton of powers he doesn't really have. Tyler is understandably very confused about it.
 * Superpowerful Genetics: Subverted.
 * Touched by Vorlons: From the foursquare game.
 * Un-Sorcerer: Despite being a son of two superheroes, both of whom are very powerful... and very proud, and now also gone a little too far into wishful thinking.

Murphy
"I am acquainted with all stories form this world and others as they form the tableau of what you quaintly call "reality." The dreams of all sentient beings come together to shape what we see when we walk apart from the realms of sleep, and the whimsical novels of which we speak give their small contribution to making whole that which we see as the universe."


 * Affiliation: PS238 (student)

A description of the character goes here.


 * Anthropomorphic Personification
 * Black Eyes
 * Captain Ersatz: Of Dream from The Sandman.
 * De-Power: The reason he's in an elementary school; he's been reduced to the child-sized "Prince of Daydreams."
 * Dream Weaver
 * I'm Having Soul Pains: Downplayed. According to Murphy, "too much destiny" in one place makes his aura itch.
 * I Have Many Names: How Murphy introduces himself.
 * Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: He could just say "yes". «But it wouldn't be as illuminating».
 * Wall of Text

Poly Mekkis ("Polymer")

 * Expospeak Gag: Once his dialogue is translated.
 * Foreign Queasine: His attitude about the cafeteria food.
 * Gadgeteer Genius
 * Intelligible Unintelligible: (Only to Angie.)
 * The Unintelligible
 * Prospero's dialogue is actually written with a font in which every character looks more or less the same. This font *is* decipherable, and reveals his dialogue for the first issue to contain nothing but comments from the author and Monty Python references. Later issues become slightly more in-character-esque.
 * Wingdinglish: Prospero's walls of text in his introductory chapters starts off with "If you can read this" and goes on with Monty Python quotes, a recipe, etc, to avoid heavy spoilers, but in the rest of the series, his utterings are often hilarious.

Angie Sinthousy

"I rigged up dis hologram robot-thing o' my bad self to sit at my desk an' give da same wise-crackin' answers I usually do. Does it work? It spends most of its time in da principals' office, so I guess so."
 * Bungling Inventor: Her gadgets are built literally from junk, so they tend to be either unreliable (like that Body Double robot) or more often habitually over-engineered (to compensate?) - in which case they work, but too powerfully. Tim Taylor Technology is her style.
 * Catch Phrase: Knowhatimsayin'?
 * Clap Your Hands If You Believe: Hinted that some of her more fantastic creations only work right when she's using them, or at least in the vicinity.
 * Deadpan Snarker:

 * I See Dead People: She can see ghosts and other supernatural phenomena. And hear.

 * True Sight: Strait through illusions.

"Zodon: If we can still see it, she's panicking. If she doesn't shut off the thrust, the only camera that can take her class picture is on the Hubble telescope."
 * Gas Leak Coverup: Tends to prompt these.
 * Power Incontinence: Not powers per se, but her self-control is... well, it's good for 6-year old, but that does not say much. Thus everything works fine, right until she gets upset or distracted or panicked.

"Suzi: Don't worry! I'll keep you safe, Tyler! (other kids) HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA Suzi: What's so funny? Why is everyone laughing?"
 * Superpowerful Genetics: From "Nuclear Family".

 * Power Incontinence: He has to have his hair and nails trimmed multiple times a day to keep others from noticing how fast they grow.

 * Genius Bruiser: He has a mental boost implant, then was manipulated by a supervillain in childhood and learned from misadventure, grew up on a planet with very chaotic history, and for a while had to fight a trickster god every year.

 * Age: 8

A description of the character goes here.


 * Ascended Fanboy
 * Badass Longcoat
 * Conspiracy Theorist: He actually gets pretty close to figuring out the truth about PS238, but Tyler derails him with alien stuff.
 * Also, the reptiloids are up to no good... just not in his school.
 * I Just Want to Be Special: Cecil is itching to participate in something great, which is how he got into those "alien investigations". And reacted with enthusiasm on things like being told some of his memories are gone, or seeing his body shape becoming unstable. Of course, that's also why he sucks at secrecy. And.

("Headmaster")

 * Affiliation: Praetorian Academy (headmaster, duh)
 * Formerly of: USA Senate

A description of the character goes here.


 * Body Double: His Senatorial office is "now being run by a quite clever android duplicate". Because the sight of his new body would raise too many questions, some answers to which may contain "breaking and entering", "theft" and "patent violations" -- and that's even before his other deeds would be noticed.
 * Body Horror: Quite a looker. On the upside, now he can dig very fast through earth and data alike, and probably is mostly invulnerable.
 * Brain-Computer Interface
 * The Chessmaster: He has many layers of misdirection for his activities. Oh, and he unofficially rates his students on "Vetinari Scale".

I sometimes think access to cash is the greatest superpower of all.

A description of the character goes here.


 * Badass Normal
 * The Chessmaster
 * Crazy Prepared: He has a box under the seat in his jet just in case he suddenly needs to go into space.
 * Crimefighting with Cash: See the quote.
 * Expy: Of Batman (minus grim and dramatic sides, plus connections everywhere).
 * I Have Many Names: So many that when Revenant have to "retire" one of his richer identities (Kent Allard), his greatest inconvenience is attachment to it.
 * Kinda Busy Here: Every time Tyler or others call him for advice. But he's so badass he can whomp supervillains and give career counselling simultaneously without breaking a sweat.
 * Combat Uninterruptus: Happens all the time.
 * Vigilante Man

The former chief/shaman of an unknown tribe in America - a little before the arrival of Europeans (lucky for them). Cursed to sit there and not remember anything that "swells his heart".


 * The Atoner: It's kind of tricky, while he can't access his magic, interact with anything or even move around.
 * Ironic Hell: The curse is obviously tailored for his flaws.
 * One-Man Army: Okay, almost half of the people on this page could count (at least potentially), but he made a point of issuing a challenge to a "conventional" army. When he finally gets to blast things, it was big magical artillery show indeed.
 * Personality Powers: Affinity to thunder-and-lightning magic is quite fitting for his (former) temper.
 * Smug Super: Consistently acted on excessive pride. Which is why he eventually was cursed.
 * Swiss Army Superpower: The first thing he does after getting his magic back is forming a radio transceiver from tiny discharges.
 * True Sight: As a ghost.

Micro Might's estranged sister-in-arms. Now looks after law and order in Las Vegas. Appeared on two pages, but she's a part of UoJ history.


 * Fair Cop: She's easy on the eye in an uniform. So far it remains a mystery how she looked younger, air-dancing in some sort of tight outfit - this usually comes with the territory, doesn't it? - and maybe with a better hairdo, but there's always hope for more Union of Justice' flashbacks.
 * Flight: Of what we have seen. Other powers remain unknown.

 * Mr. Exposition

 * Gadgeteer Genius
 * Super Intelligence

Forak's former boss, on a mission to ensure the Rightful King Returns... and certain trusted advisor becomes the real power behind the throne?


 * : If he had patience to steer clear or better off arrange an alibi when his operatives do something untoward and just let them do their job, nobody would know he's involved at all -- whether they'd be fooled the same way as he was or not. Truly "there's no fool like a royal fool".
 * Flying Brick: Like all Argosian nobility.
 * Jerkass: Somewhat infamous on his planet as a "tin-pot stiff-neck" having "odd priorities".

''Sorry if I'm being too big a fanboy. I'm kind of nervous.''

 * Flying Brick / You Are Number Six: FISS #71.
 * Otaku Surrogate: Among the active fans of Julie.
 * Punch Clock Hero: Working in Heroix is not quite as glorious as it sounds. It gets worse when he is forced to admit this.

My royal blood is about as thin as toilet paper, and that's not the only similarity, in my opinion.

 * The Chew Toy: When we first meet him, poor chap stands right under a thick hatch door about to be explosively removed. His luck doesn't improve too much or for very long after that. Upon being extracted from under the hatch's bent remnants, he is hit with Shrink Ray and captured. Then gets out just in time to be irradiated with an Argonite crystal. Then he ends up marooned on Earth... And he understands better than anyone what a joke promoting him as "Atlas 2.0" is, thank you very much.
 * Flying Brick: Technically. He's on the opposite end of the Brick-iness scale from Atlas - just enough so that he counts as one. And had little to no flight practice.
 * Otaku Surrogate: He's a natural-born fanboy. Which helped him to distract one Man Child, but.

''Not for revenge. That's too petty. Besides, they'd just try to get me back. I'd gain nothing.''

 * Bastard Understudy: He is already rather keen and haggles like a devil. His boss openly encourages this.
 * Flying Brick

I know I'm being a bit of an A-type personality, but that's godhood for you...

 * Friendly Enemy: He used to fight Perun all the time; now that Perun is gone, he needs to find another opponent. He challenges a "champion of Earth" to yearly contest, and even did some trash talk. But in the end, it's a fate thing rather than his fancy, and he likes having a Worthy Opponent... and maybe getting some perks out of the deal.
 * Horned Humanoid
 * Stealth Mentor

''It was one of the names that weren't taken. It was either that, or Miss Miasma.''

 * Deadpan Snarker
 * Semi-tangibility
 * The Smart Gal: She is know-it-all and the brain of the team in Plasma Pack. According to herself, at least - but Veles apparently see things this way too.
 * Swiss Army Superpower: She had practice with non-trivial applications of her powers. Such as using those - plasma bubbles? running glow-discharges? - for full duplex ventriloquism, of all things.
