Storm Hawks/Characters

Tropes for the characters of Storm Hawks.

Aerrow
"Voiced by Samuel Vincent"

The Sky Knight and leader of the Storm Hawks. He is a direct descendant from the presumably deceased leader of the original Storm Hawks, Lightning Strike. (Fanon says they're father and son, but it's never explicitly stated in show).


 * The Ace
 * Bifurcated Weapon
 * Dual-Wielding
 * Foe Yay: With Dark Ace.
 * Green Eyed Red Head
 * Heal Thyself: In "Five Days".
 * The Hero
 * The Leader
 * The Messiah
 * My Nayme Is
 * Redheaded Hero
 * Shirtless Scene
 * Strong Family Resemblance: With Lightning Strike. The only real difference between the two (besides age) is eye color.

Finn
"Voiced by Matt Hill"

The team's self-absorbed sharp shooter.


 * Air Guitar
 * The Archer
 * Automatic Crossbow
 * Blue Eyes
 * Bottomless Magazines: He has run out on a couple of occasions, but let's face it - he fits way more arrows into his crossbow than he should be able to.
 * Butt Monkey
 * Catch Phrase: "Chika-cha!" Complete with pointed pistol-fingers.
 * Cool Shades: He's seen wearing a pair on occasion, usually for humorous effect.
 * Drunk With Power: On more than one occasion.
 * Dumb Blonde
 * Fingerless Gloves
 * Friendly Sniper
 * The Gunslinger: Played up in "The Ultra Dudes".
 * Handsome Lech / Casanova Wannabe: Depending on his luck.
 * Idiot Hero
 * The Lancer
 * Me's a Crowd: "InFinnity"
 * Plucky Comic Relief
 * Screams Like a Little Girl
 * Shirtless Scene: More than any of the others, although Aerrow and Stork might have him beat for total onscreen time spent shirtless. (See "Escape" and "Shipwrecked", respectively.)
 * Snake Oil Salesman: In "Velocity", and revisited much later  Something of an Informed Ability, as we never actually get to see him making a pitch.
 * Spiky Hair
 * Small Name, Big Ego

Piper
"Voiced by Chiara Zanni"

The team's only girl and a perfectionist crystal specialist.

"Aerrow [assigning team positions]: Piper - crystal mage! ...Plus, all the smart stuff."
 * Action Girl
 * Ambiguously Brown
 * Badass Bookworm
 * Boom Stick
 * The Chick
 * Closer to Earth
 * Detached Sleeves
 * Eyes of Gold
 * Fan Girl: Towards Domiwick before his true nature became apparent.
 * Fingerless Gloves: Variant; her gloves have no index finger, little fingers or thumb.
 * Foe Yay: With Master Cyclonis.
 * Gadgeteer Genius: Though to a much lesser degree than Stork.
 * Girl Next Door
 * Number Two
 * Positive Discrimination - The Ambiguously Brown Token Girl is probably the least likely to screw up.
 * Prince and Pauper: In "Royal Switch".
 * Ship Tease: The Foe Yay moments with Master Cyclonis, as mentioned above. However, as shown at the ending of "Stratosphere," the moment Aerrow manages to land after his Skimmer nearly crashes in "Second Chances," and the final episodes, she has a fair share of these moments with her leader, Aerrow.
 * The Smart Girl


 * The Smurfette Principle
 * Took a Level In Badass: Towards the end of the series.
 * Twofer Token Minority
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair

The muscle of the team and a major softie.

 * Berserk Button
 * Big Eater
 * The Big Guy
 * Catch Phrase: "On it!" and "Sorry!"
 * Curtains Match the Window
 * Extreme Omnivore
 * Friend to All Living Things
 * Genius Bruiser: While not The Smart Guy by any stretch, he is the team's mechanic and weapon expert.
 * Gentle Giant
 * Gray Eyes
 * Heel Face Turn: "Origins" reveals that he was once a member of a Cyclonian Youth Brigade before he realized that they were most definitely not the good guys.
 * Lethal Chef: Seems to come with his being an Extreme Omnivore -- he has pretty low standards when it comes to food.
 * Mr. Fixit
 * Power Fist: His Knuckle Busters.
 * Super Strength: Even without his Knuckle Busters.

Stork
"Voiced by Scott McNeil"

The oldest member of the team and the neurotic pilot of the Condor.

"Aerrow: I know it seems hard to believe...

Stork: Nah, I believe pretty much anything."


 * Berserk Button: Don't mess with the Condor.
 * Catch Phrase: "We're doomed."

 * The Eeyore
 * Emo Teen
 * Fingerless Gloves: He's even got a pair for his feet (they're prehensile).
 * Gadgeteer Genius
 * Large Ham

 * Mix and Match Critters: Word of God says merbs like Stork are cold-blooded and smooth-skinned, rather like amphibians, even though their ears are rather mammalian and they have hair on their heads.
 * Mr. Fanservice
 * Nightmare Fetishist
 * Non-Action Guy: He rarely gets into fights except from behind the wheel of the Condor.
 * Older Than They Look: Word of God says he's about twenty. Doesn't look it, does he?
 * The Smart Guy
 * Sour Supporter
 * Roaring Rampage of Revenge: In "Payback".
 * Twitchy Eye

Radarr
The "Mission Specialist" of the Storm Hawks who usually serves as a wing-creature for Aerrow.


 * Evil-Detecting Dog
 * Improbable Weapon User: Wrenches, plungers, crystals, live chickens... if he can swing or throw it, he can use it.

 * Mix and Match Critters: Some kind of blue-furred lemur rabbit... thing.
 * Non-Human Sidekick: To Aerrow.
 * The Speechless
 * Team Pet

Master Cyclonis
"Voiced by Lenore Zann"

Ruler of Cyclonia and the major antagonist of the series.


 * All Encompassing Mantle
 * Authority Equals Asskicking: She is an Sorcerous Overlord and can handle any protagonist of her own with relative ease. In the two-part series opening, she easily handles both Aerrow and Starling, and the only way they are able to win is by breaking her Artifact of Doom.
 * Beauty Mark
 * Big Bad
 * Dark Action Girl
 * Even Bad Girls Love Their Mamas: She spends an entire episode trying to retrieve a crystal... so it can fix another one that holds an image of her and her grandma.
 * Evil Genius
 * Excessive Evil Eyeshadow
 * Foe Yay - With Piper.
 * Goth
 * High Collar of Doom
 * In the Hood
 * Little Miss Badass
 * Lonely At the Top: Implied in "Best Friends Forever".
 * Royals Who Actually Do Something: On occasion, though when she does, she pretty much kicks ass.
 * Slasher Smile: She is especially found of this kind of expression.
 * Sorcerous Overlord
 * Supernatural Is Purple
 * Surrounded By Idiots
 * Take Over the World
 * Voice of the Legion: Used in some earlier episodes when delivering dramatic lines.
 * You Have Failed Me: Often threatens her minions with this. She never actually does it however.
 * When She Smiles: In the aforementioned example of Even Bad Girls Love Their Mamas, when she sees the image restored, she lets a genuine smile cross her face. It's a rather surprising Crowning Moment of Heartwarming.

The Dark Ace
"Voiced by Samuel Vincent"

Master Cyclonis's right-hand man and a traitor to the original Storm Hawks.


 * Arch Enemy: To Aerrow.
 * The Dragon: To Master Cyclonis.
 * Laser Blade: And one with two blades running parallel with one another, no less! It originally belonged to Lightning Strike, before the Dark Ace (then his co-pilot) used it to kill him and then kept it for himself, changing the crystal in the hilt for a red one.
 * Mr. Fanservice
 * Everyone Calls Him Dark Ace: There's never any mention of what they called him before he became Cyclonia's Red Baron.
 * Fallen Hero
 * Foe Yay: With Aerrow.
 * Red Baron
 * Red Eyes Take Warning: Interestingly, they're shown as black in flashbacks.
 * Rewarded As a Traitor Deserves: Averted. For betraying the original Storm Hawks, the previous Master Cyclonis rewarded the Dark Ace with all the glory and power she had promised him.
 * The Rival: Once again, to Aerrow.
 * Tall, Dark and Handsome
 * Tall, Dark and Snarky
 * Villain Decay: A rather mild(?) example. He starts out being an invincible Red Baron that no other Sky Knight can match, and during the first season, he's consistently portrayed as this. By the time of "Energy Crisis," however, he has to resort to a Giant Mecha to give Aerrow and Co. an uphill battle. Of course, YMMV.

Too bad the Blizzarians froze the place over in a bid to make a new home for themselves...
