Line 20:
* [[Crystal Prison]]: A number of violet constructs take this form, especially for restraints.
* [[Dating Catwoman]]: Carol Ferris and Hal Jordan. Fatality and John Stewart.
* [[Good Powers, Bad People]]: There's a ''reason'' the previous Star Sapphires were supervillains.
* [[Heel Face Brainwashing]]: What they do to the female Sinestro Corps members.
** [[More Than Mind Control]]: They claim they're simply reigniting the inherent love in their hearts.
Line 26:
* [[Love Makes You Crazy]]: Since love is on the far end of the emotional spectrum, wielders of its light are more susceptible to being overwhelmed by it.
* [[Mate or Die]]: Their old MO. {{spoiler|They kill you anyway.}}
* [[One -Gender Race]]: The Zamarons specifically, and chances are slim of there ever being a male Star Sapphire (not counting the Predator, the physical embodiment of love).
** While the chances are slim, they attempted to recruit Sinestro himself.
* [[The Power of Love]]: ''LOVE CONQUERS ALL... WITH VIOLET LIGHT!''
* [[Human Resources]]: Their Central Battery was powered by the bodies of two dead people: the previous incarnations of [[Reincarnation Romance|Hawkman and Hawkgirl]], whose love was strong enough to fuel the entire Corps.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: The pre-Corps Sapphires.
* [[Stripperiffic]]: For the most part; though Miri Riam's is pretty modest and when [[Wonder Woman]] was deputized she actually showed ''less'' cleavage than usual in her Sapphire costume.
** [[Lampshaded Trope|Lampshaded]] by Guy Gardner; when given his choice of rings he turns down the violet one because he doesn't want to be stuck in a pink thong.

=== Aga'po ===
{{quote| '''Homeworld:''' Zamaron}}
 
The queen of the Zamarons. Aga'po spearheaded the creation of the Star Sapphire Corps after their use of the sapphire gems proved a failure. She also began the practice of brainwashing captured Sinestros during the War of Light. After the Predator escaped and the bodies of Khufu and Chay-Ara were taken from the Violet Central Power Battery in ''[[Brightest Day]]'', Aga'po used her own personal power to fuel the Star Sapphires' rings, eventually dying from the strain. She named Carol Ferris as her successor.
Line 46:
 
=== Carol Ferris ===
{{quote| '''Homeworld:''' Earth}}
 
Daughter of the CEO of Ferris Aircraft (and later the CEO herself), Carol found herself attracted to Hal Jordan but she held to her rule of not dating employees. Noticing her [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]], the Zamarons sent her the Star Sapphire gem, creating a [[Super -Powered Evil Side]] that Hal would occasionally have to fight. She was eventually freed when she got caught in a [[Love Triangle]] and the Zamarons made Hal choose a girl - "winner" became the new Star Sapphire (Hal decided to [[Take a Third Option]] and chose a Zamaron, forcing them to retreat to deal with it).
 
With the War of Light looming, the Zamarons have recruited Carol as Star Sapphire once more, only this time as one of many. She agreed in order to help protect Hal. The dying Zamaron Queen was later impressed with how she handled the Predator and appointed Carol her successor.
Line 58:
 
=== Fatality ===

Line 68:
 
=== Golden Age Star Sapphire ===
{{quote| '''Homeworld:''' Unknown}}
 
A woman of unknown name from an unknown world, this Star Sapphire was chosen by the Zamarons to be their champion years before the Star Sapphire Corps was formed. She was found unworthy, however, and was banished to the Seventh Dimension. Jay Garrick, [[The Flash]], battled her twice when she escaped.
Line 75:
 
=== Miri Riam ===
{{quote| '''Homeworld:''' Lartnec}}
 
Miri was on her honeymoon with her beloved Kered when they encountered Mongul II, who wrecked their ship and casually killed Kered. Two days later, she was about to commit suicide in despair when the violet ring appeared and offered her a new purpose saving the love of others. For some unexplained reason, she seems to be in full control of herself (most of the time, anyway).
 
* [[Green -Skinned Space Babe|Blue Skinned Space Babe]]
* [[Naive Newcomer]]
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Along with Carol Ferris. Or at least Miri is better than hiding it than others.
 
=== The Predator ===
{{quote| '''Homeworld:''' Zamaron (originally Earth)}}
 
The Love Entity--the living embodiment of the Violet Light, given life and strength from the love of every sentient being. Its form is that of an alien dragon-like creature.
