She exhibits some interest in poetic wordplay, calling herself ‘graceful, but deadly,’ and ‘swift as the night, sharp as my knife,’ when dispatched. She displays dry humour, saying she can ‘take a stab at’ a mission, and clarifies she was trying to make a joke. Coupé expresses great affinity for knives, frequently referring to their care and wellbeing when dispatched, on one occasion thanking Robert for giving them a chance for fresh air. Similarly, she's audibly livid when contacting Blonde Blazer about the issue of her confiscated office knives, saying she registered them as emotional support knives. She also admits to recently taking up sewing, enjoying the various fabrics and stabbing motions accompanying the hobby. When accompanied by a hero, she articulates the differences between ‘a cut, a dice, and a mince,’ asking them to hold out their hand for her to demonstrate.

She has yellow eyes and mascara running down her cheeks from her eyes, and wears dark lipstick. Background: Her birthday is February 9.

She had shown hints that she needs this job, though she refuses to elaborate on her reasoning.

She has an independent streak with little respect for procedure, purposefully showing up late to meetings, and is implied to use her portals to leave the room, refusing to get her mugshot taken. She enjoys gossip and playing into jokes, using common church phrases such as ‘confess your sins, cause I… really want the tea,’ and greeting citizens by calling herself their ‘lord and savior.’ Malevola shows amusement in being feared, saying that ‘fear is the best teacher’ when dispatched to handle a juvenile pickpocket, and gleefully saying that people will ‘piss their pants when they see her.’ When commenting on first impressions, she quips that people judge her for her appearance, then judge her even more after getting to know her. Similarly, she’s aware that while she’s not to everyone’s taste, ‘too many’ people fetishise her. Despite this, she’s implied to be dissatisfied with being perceived unfavourably, expressing her enjoyment of being seen as a ‘benevolent devil,’ re-routing to avoid police and churches, saying ‘[she] doesn’t need that drama today,’ and sarcastically commenting that her favourite part of the job is ‘scaring children’ when ordered to scare one.

She committed a long list of serious crimes before joining the Phoenix Program. Among the people in the team, she is noted to be closest to Sonar, helping him with his addiction and behavioural issues and supporting his reform. Despite her history and origin, she wants to be more than just a terrifying demon with a sword, and sometimes laments that while people judge her for her look, they judge her more after getting to know her. Abilities: Malevola is able to create portals for teleportation or fast repositioning. She likewise wields a big sword and has inhuman strength owing to her demon physique. She is also able to heal others through life transfer, though the mechanics were never elaborated on. — Name: Courtney Hero Name: Invisigal Old Name: Invisibitch Crimes: Assault, Larceny, Robbery Personality: She is very confident and sassy, not afraid to speak her mind and fight back if needed. Described as aloof and abrasive, Invisigal is a tough, independent loner. She often feels the need to avoid serious situations, deflecting with sexualized jokes or general sass. As a hero, she’s occasionally pleasantly shocked and relieved over her successes, wondering aloud if she ‘did that right’ and remarking that a successful mission ‘was great.’ She’s implied to care more about her performance than she admits, notably upset when saying that ‘she doesn’t care’ after failing a mission, and sincerely commenting that helping people ‘feels nice,’ before deflecting it by saying ‘as long as she gets paid for it.’ Invisigal also displays a willful streak, refusing to be dissuaded from being dispatched to Granny’s Donuts, wanting to get unbanned by saving them. She supports aspiring criminals, giving a young pickpocketer pointers for next time, misunderstanding an order to give him a pep talk.

She wears a pink cropped jacket with a black, cropped shirt, as well as black capris pants. Background: Invisigal was born in Los Angeles, California.

She had been shown to have bad habits such as drinking and smoking, and has a streak of disobeying direct orders. Abilities: Her primary ability is turning invisible when holding her breath, however, she’d been shown to need an inhaler, and may imply that she has problems with her breathing. She is noted to be capable in close combat. — Name: Bruno Hero Name: Golem Crimes: Aiding and Abetting, Disturbing the peace, Vandalism Personality: Golem is a mellow, levelheaded construct. He tends to speak informally, making a habit of calling other heroes ‘baby,’ and using slang such as ‘kobe’ and ‘that’s the gravy, baby’ when succeeding a mission. He practices being polite, trying to smile more but remarks that he doesn't have enough teeth for it, and resolving to try and not ruin anyone's carpet when dispatched. He has a proud side, boasting 'let's show these molehills a mountain' and 'someone order a mudslide?' Despite this, Golem admits to being dimwitted, saying he has rocks for brains. He mispronounces ‘humongous’ when angrily asking who called him ‘a humuncuous', though it's also possible he was attempting to express someone had referred to him as 'a homunculus'. He occasionally makes excuses for his failures, blaming a failed mission on a headache for his subpar performance. Otherwise, he takes his failures in stride, saying ‘better luck next time.’ Blonde Blazer thinks he’s lonely, a claim somewhat evidenced with him being on dating apps, and having dated a cliff side before, citing it didn’t work out. He enjoys rock climbers, saying that they're handsy. Additionally, he presents protectiveness and general loyalty to those he likes. Appearance: Golem is a towering construct of brown colour and varying size, changed by the amount of material he absorbs on a given day.

Several debris are stuck in his body, including a large tire in his right bicep, and several unidentified pieces half-sunken in his back. Large pieces of rock are embedded in his arms and legs. He has yellow-orange eyes and a prominent underbite. Background: Not much is known about Golem, other than that he is a construct made out of dirt and mud and maintaining sentience through magic. Despite his towering, nonhuman, build, he has been shown to be relatively docile. He also said at some point that his size is not consistent and he may change depending on the day or how much material he has absorbed for the day. His crimes are notably less egregious than the others. He considers Invisigal a friend. Abilities: As a construct made of dirt and clay, he is able to adjust his size to be bigger or smaller, though still very much construct shaped. He is likewise able to recover from most damage as he is simply sentient clay. His hulking physique makes him exceptionally strong and sturdy, though he may sometimes move slower than most. — Name: Colm Hero Name: Punch Up Crimes: Battery, Parole Violation, Public Intoxication, Second Degree Murder Personality: Punch Up is a charming, if dimwitted man. He’s implied to be aware of his unintelligence, proudly remarking that he ‘knew how to use his head’ if he fails a mission. He’s not above laughing at himself, saying he’ll get to the site as fast as his ‘legs can get [him].’ He also asks the other heroes if 'cauliflower ear is an STD.' He has a bloodthirsty side, lamenting that he hasn’t fought anyone the entire day, and is dismayed when he notes that he can’t punch a kid if dispatched on a call for one. When recalling a familiar street he used to fight in, he reminisces that he 'used to punch bums' there and sadly wonders if the best days are behind him. He’s implied to be an alcoholic, asking anyone for a ‘pint on the road’ if dispatched, and celebrating a successful mission by offering to cover the first round of drinks. Appearance: He has black hair and a large mustache, fitting the look of a traditional carnival strong man performer. During work, he wears a button-up green shirt with brown suspenders and pants. Background: Punch Up was a carnival strong man who made a deal with a sorceress, who gave him the strength of ten men. His muscles grew but his height got cut in half, leaving him at a height of 3 feet and 3 inches. Despite everything, he is still technically a human born in Galway County in Ireland. Notably, his way of fighting is ‘punching up’, often straight into the balls owing to him being half the size of an average person. He was once an assassination target of Coupe, though they developed a relationship instead. At present time, they are only close friends and no longer have romantic feelings for each other. Abilities: — Name: Alice Hero Name: Prism Crimes: Assault, Drug Possession, Driving under Influence, Tax Evasion Personality: Described as highly dramatic, Prism is a proud, charismatic diva. Prism shows talent in makeovers, able to bestow new hero identities to two men quarreling over the name ‘Fight Man.’ Blonde Blazer also describes her as talented when asked why Prism dresses as a pop star, evident in her number of followers. She has a judgemental side, noted to be a ‘music snob’ and looking down on William Vanderstenk, calling him a ‘loser’ and doesn’t respect his certificate, saying he’s not a genius just for having one. Prism shows some interest and enthusiasm as a Phoenix, occasionally commenting that a mission looks fun if dispatched. When succeeding, she proudly exclaims her success, telling others 'It's okay, don't be jealous' while asserting she knows they've witnessed it. Upon failing, she becomes aloof and hostile, telling others not 'to fucking try her today.' Appearance: Prism is a petite woman with a chin-length bob where the left half is hot pink and the right turquoise. She has a beauty mark on her right cheek and, while she has brown eyes, she wears a teal visor that partially conceals them. Her outfit consists of a black body suit with a thin gold line down the middle of it and around the base of her neck, with a single gold hoop where the lines meet. She also wears long gloves that go up to her mid-arm. Each glove matches their respective hair color for each side (pink on left, turquoise on right) and are capped off by a large, gold band. Both of her thigh high boots are turquoise. Background: Prism was born in Flint, Michigan in the United States. She has a public persona as a pop star or social media influencer, having 1.3 million followers. Her criminal records align more with debauchery than malicious aggression, unlike others in the team. Though she has yet to share much of her story, she told Malevola previously that she did not know her father, implying that she was raised in a fatherless household. Regardless, she remains a popular public figure who specializes as a pop star. Hints of her being an anime fan had also been shown through her random quotations of Sailor Moon. She has been shown to be friendly with Flambae. Abilities: Her abilities are still up for contention, though she has presented with illusion abilities and cloning others. She has also shown some form of light manipulation, creating flashes that can temporarily blind others. — Name: Victor Hero Name: Sonar Crimes: Embezzlement, Extortion, Drug Possession, Forgery, Fraud, Money Laundering, Perjury, Cyberbullying Personality: Described as highly intelligent, Sonar is a cunning, arrogant man. Sonar fails to understand jokes, in the Demo, Robert Robertson introduces himself just for his team to laugh at his name, which Sonar starts repeating "Robert Robertson" to attempt to comprehend what's funny about Robert's full name. Him repeating the name over and over while making slight changes each time could also read as an attempt at using a mnemonic device to make sure he remembers Robert's name for networking purposes, due to his intelligence and general business presenting demeanor. He shows remarkable talent in white collar crimes. Business oriented, he’s eager to network with Vanderstenk on his ideas for ‘human meat alternatives,’ and says that ‘he can never have too many soft skills’ when levelled up. He also has an elitist side, having cyberbullied others, calling himself a ‘high ranking Vanderstenker,’ and frequently boasting that he’s a Harvard graduate. When faced with his own failures, he makes excuses for ‘not trying that hard.’ Appearance: Sonar has a human body, but the head of a bat with sharp fangs and big ears. He has pure white eyes, and wears a navy-blue suit with a red tie and black dress pants. When transformed, his eyes turn red and grows in height, his body growing a more bulky physique.

He was a Harvard Graduate, a detail he’s particularly proud of. He was heavily involved in the most effective Silicon Valley investment frauds in US history. He sometimes transforms into a bat monster, becoming stronger though less intelligent. He frequents drug usage and has notable dependency on illicit drugs. However, Malevola has been trying to help him through his addiction and in controlling his bat monster form. Prior to becoming a part of the Phoenix Program, his crimes were mostly related to drugs and money and indirect altercations. Abilities: He is incredibly smart and intelligent in his bat-human hybrid form. When he turns into a bat monster, he becomes stronger and gains the ability to fly. However, he has difficulty controlling his monster form, though Malevola has been helping him through it. — Name: Chad Hero Name: Flambae Crimes: Arson, Assault, Vandalism Personality: Flambae is a short-tempered, rude, and egotistical man with anger issues. When mocked by the team for losing against ‘just a guy’ (Mecha Man), Flambae angrily defends himself and goes rogue to set a park on fire. He also takes pride in driving his last dispatcher to quit in two days. As a serial arsonist, he also comments that a juvenile pickpocket should 'pick up arson instead' when dispatched on the mission for it. He wonders aloud if art is flammable, if dispatched to the museum. He's confrontational, picking a fight with Robert at Crypto Night and attempts to assault him. In the trailer, he mocks Robert and says he should accept that he isn't a hero anymore, needing to support 'actual ones' like him at his desk, before telling him to get off of 'his' workout bench, despite a vacant one being available. When confronted with his mistakes, Flambae is dismissive of his role in them, lying about starting a fire, and refusing Robert’s orders to ‘clean his mess.’ Flambae is notably vain, having designed his own hero suit, implies that he admires himself in the mirror, and admits to wanting to set a tree on fire, saying they aren’t better than him, showing a petty side and implied self-esteem issues. When dispatched together with Prism, he asks her how his hair looks, and that others shouldn’t mess with ‘perfection.’ He has a habit of rambling, saying ‘brace yourselves, bitches’ and quickly amends that he ‘doesn’t see gender.’ When trying to give his ETA on a call, he describes pulling up Google maps before giving up, saying ‘he’ll be there.’ Appearance: Flambae is a tall, well-built man with broad shoulders and long legs. He has long black hair tied in a ponytail, reaching down to the middle of his shoulder blades, and a strand of hair left free to frame his face. He has a 5 o’clock shadow beard with thicker sideburns and unshaven chest hair. He has orange irises. He has a missing ring and pinky fingers on his right hand as a result of his past altercation with Robert. As a hero, his suit is primarily black and has a plunging V-neck that reaches down to his navel, with a fire pattern tracing its collar, splaying across his shoulders and arms. His cuffs and boots are orange, and is seen wearing visor sunglasses with a black frame and fiery gradient for its lens. Background: He was born in Herat, Afghanistan. As a criminal, he once had a run-in with Mecha Man, where his ring and pinky fingers on his right hand were cut off. His crimes primarily involve arson and vandalism, as well as assault, but no records of murder. This implies his type of crimes were more disruptive than truly malicious. Likewise, he made a former dispatcher at SDN quit their job by setting their car on fire. When he joined the Phoenix Program, he maintained his cocky personality, though he notably actually tries to help, despite his occasionally sarcastic and short temper. He is friendly towards Prism, bonding over being ‘bad bitches’ and stylish characters. Abilities: Flambae’s primary ability is pyrokinesis. He is able to generate and manipulate fire, his skin being immune to burns and heat damage. He is likewise able to fly by using his flames as pyro propulsions. — Name: Katon-Ur Hero Name: Phenomaman Personality: Phenomaman is a polite yet seems to struggle with social cues. Due to being from another planet, Phenomaman isn't accustomed fully to human traditions and thinks its okay to invite Robert to his date with Blonde Blazer, and can appear to be a little awkward. Despite this, he is a gentleman and presents himself as confident. However, sometimes can unintentionally give backhanded compliments. He appears to be socially awkward and emotionally fragile, inexperienced in social situations due to his alien upbringing. Phenomaman is utilised by SDN as an effective marketing mascot, however he is clearly not fully capable nor comfortable in advertising and recording, constantly glancing at a teleprompter, repositioning his hands constantly and having forced awkward smiles Phenomaman is currently incapable of properly dealing with breaking up with his Ex-girlfriend, Blonde Blazer. He still very much remains enamoured by Blazer and in love with her, sending her many edible arrangements, too many to eat it seems as they end up rotting in the break room or eaten by others. He appears to have a particularly strange sense of personal physical boundaries, and the naming thereof, giving multiple tight, damaging hugs to Robert and referring to this action as "making love." Additionally, it seems his alien biology and genitalia removes the prospect of sexual acts between him and Blazer. He seems to completely identify himself as an other in the world, with himself and Blazer referring to him as "not people" Appearance: Phenomaman has short brown mullet-like slicked back hair and gray eyes. He also sports a moustache. Phenomaman wears a sleeveless blue body suit and a red belt, with a red cape and a high collar with yellow on its rim. He is muscular, and has red arm cuffs with silver near the wrist and yellow rimming it. Background: He is an alien from the planet Urgot-52dc. He arrived on Earth and became a superhero for SDN, even becoming involved with Blonde Blazer for a while. Though they broke up later on and he became depressed, before joining the Z-Team. He seems to be incredibly unfamiliar with Earthly customs. He also revealed that compliments were not welcome in his home planet, instead receiving them like insults. Abilities: Phenomaman possesses superhuman strength and speed, flight, and inhuman durability. He is presented to be incredibly strong, though would sometimes feel too depressed to work without getting distracted. — Name: Herman Hero Name: Waterboy Personality: Waterboy has social anxiety and as such, has difficulty communicating with people, however, he is also genuinely caring and strives to help people even if he winds up ignored or disregarded. He also has confidence issues due to the way people treat him, possibly contributing to his stuttering issue. He is incredibly shy but earnest, looking up to heroes and enthusiastically aims to be one. Appearance: Waterboy is a tall and lanky man. He has ginger hair that droops down as if constantly wet. He is always seen wearing blue swimming goggles. He wears a waterproof yellow and blue jumpsuit. Background: Waterboy is generally unremarkable. He was born in Los Angeles, California and lives with his grandmother whom he cares for along with several cats. He was initially hired as a janitor for SDN on the same day Robert Robetson was hired, cleaning around the office. Abilities: He spontaneously produces water throughout his body, making him perpetually soaked. — Name: Robert Robertson III Hero Name: Mecha Man Personality: Robert is a witty and somewhat sarcastic man, prone to teasing others on occasion with his remarks and observations. When recognized as Mecha Man by a stranger who thought he was dead, he deadpans 'just on the inside.' He also attempts to mostly remain polite, accepting a hug from Chase, whom he didn't recognize before pulling him off, and can fist bump Royd in greeting when he introduces himself in the bathroom despite his annoyance and disgust, with Robert apologizing for his remark on Royd's name when he expresses hurt over it. As a dispatcher, he maintains a professional persona: formally introducing himself with his full name, giving orders to the team, and politely asking them to clear the channel after they mock him repeatedly, clogging communications with their banter. Despite this, he’s prone to annoyance and swearing, showing frustration with Flambae when he sets fire to a park and warns him to ‘stop fucking around,' saying he has enough problems already. He has a ruthless side, and is not shy to use intimidation as a solution, ordering either Malevola or Sonar to scare a juvenile pickpocket straight. In the trailer, he also voices his willingness to kill his nemesis, Shroud. Robert has also developed vigilant tendencies from his career as Mecha Man. When given food or drink by others, he tends to smell them in case of poison. He's also considerably jumpy around sudden noises. Appearance: Robert has short, auburn hair and brown eyes. He has a few freckles on his cheeks, and part of his right ear is missing. He has several scars on his torso. In his SDN uniform, he wears a light blue, long-sleeved button-up that's left partially untucked on his right side, with its sleeves folded up just above his elbows. He wears black pants and dark brown shoes. Background: Robert is the grandson of Robert Robertson I-- the original Mecha Man. Robert’s father, Mecha Man Astral, had designed the suit Robert would eventually inherit. Following his father's death, Robert took up the mantle and became the next Mecha Man--using the millions in inheritance money left by his family to fund his tenure and continue their legacy. At the same time he would distance himself from any remaining family and friends. Due to the extensive maintenance on the Mecha Man suit, Robert burned through his inheritance fast and had to reduce his living standards to a 1 bedroom apartment with little to no furniture. Sometime in his career, he had a run-in with Flambae. He ended up being recruited by Blonde Blazer into SDN and was told to manage the Z-Team as their dispatcher, gaining their general trust and loyalty. — Name: Mandy Hero Name: Blonde Blazer Personality: In the SDN office, Blonde Blazer is shown to be friendly, welcoming and encouraging towards her subordinates and co-workers. Idealistic, she is insistent on her faith in the Phoenix Program, reluctantly admitting it being at risk of shutting down if results fail to show for it. She’s also described to have a hero complex, sincerely extending an offer of employment to a depressed Robert, comforting him, and saying she believes there is more he can still offer as a person. As the implied branch manager at the SDN, the staff respect her as an authority figure, with one quietly passing along a document for her to sign without interrupting her giving orientation to Robert. Despite this, she’s shown to be capable of some thoughtlessness, committing a faux pas of trying to demonstrate the SDN’s value of diversity by using Galen as an example, failing to remember he was from Florida until he answered. She also instructs Robert to take off his clothes while distracted in finding him an SDN uniform, seemingly unaware of the suggestiveness of the line. Appearance: Blonde Blazer is a young woman with long blonde hair and blue eyes. She has a tall and athletic physique, being slightly taller than Robert. Background: Sometime before Robert Robertson's employment, Blonde Blazer had reformed and redesigned the struggling SDN-T branch into its current state, having first arrived at its filthy, rat-infested offices, including the metaphorically 'leaderless' state of its workplace environment. After Mecha Man's retirement, she approaches Robert Robertson with an offer of employment at the SDN as a dispatcher for its Phoenix Program. She used to be in a relationship with Phenomaman. However, she broke up with him citing the fact that they were growing incompatible overtime. Still, she refuses to have it affect her job. Abilities: She has been shown to have the ability to fly, as well as make other things in close proximity to her float with her. She also has superhuman strength as well as energy generation and projection in the form of energy beams. Her eyes glow yellow when she uses her energy abilities. — Name: Chase Former Hero Name: Track Star Personality: Chase was a crass and blunt man with little patience for nonsense. He swore liberally in his interactions, and playfully ribbed people he was close to, referring to them with different titles such as Robert being a ‘skinny latte prick’ and ‘freckle faced fuck.’ While able to comfort others, Chase expressed a limited tolerance for emotional vulnerability on his end, expressing his disdain for being pitied if Robert offers his condolences for his powers, eventually saying he’s had enough of the ‘feelings crap’ before moving on. He freely admitted to using dark humor to suppress trauma, a trait he shared with Robert when he jokes about killing his father again in exchange for being able to use his powers. He regretted his hero days, saying he was a chump for trying to help people. He agreed with Robert when he says his fate is cruel, and asked what he’s done to deserve it, with Chase calling the drawbacks of his powers akin to a ‘war criminal level punishment.’ Appearance: Despite his biological age being 39 years old, Chase appears as an old man with white hair, eyebrows, and mustache. He typically wears glasses at work. His attire is the standard dispatcher uniform of a button-up shirt, with the sleeves rolled. His posture is a little slouched, owing to his elderly body. Background: Chase used to be a speedster hero under the name Track Star. He was part of the Brave Brigade as its youngest member, being close friends with Robert’s father and his babysitter every now and then. His ability causes him to age 50 times as fast whenever he uses it, which resulted in his body aging far more than his actual age. As a consequence of this, he actively avoids using his ability, stating that he still refuses to kick the bucket. He joined SDN and took on a support role in the network, helping Robert and giving him general advice. He also likes Beef, Robert’s dog. Abilities: Chase is able to run at a speed 50 times faster than the average person. However, this also causes him to age 50 times faster whenever he uses it. After retiring, he made it a point to avoid using his ability. — Name: Roy Nickname: Royd Personality: Royd is an easygoing and amiable man, making small talk with Robert when meeting him for the first time. He’s somewhat naive, initially believing that his nickname came from his coworkers (similarly named Roy) naming him after how he fights, citing ‘you got Royd’ before expressing sadness over the idea that they ‘think [he’s] some kind of a juicehead,’ nicknaming him after steroids. Despite this, Royd is resilient, quickly recovering from being hurt by the idea, saying he doesn’t care if it’s true. He also has little care for hygiene, saying he doesn’t wash his hands after using the urinal, citing he ‘doesn’t touch [anything]’ when asked. Royd is also seemingly unaware of other people’s disgust for this, offering a fist bump to Robert in the bathroom and resting a hand on him when laughing at his quip. If Robert refuses to touch him, Royd is understanding and seemingly doesn’t hold it against him, though remembers the act. Appearance: Royd is a very tall, broad and muscular man with long black somewhat wavy hair. His eye color is brown and he has a tribal tattoo on his right arm. He typically wears the SDN uniform and occasionally wears glasses when working. His sleeves are frequently rolled up, showing his arms and tattoo. Background: Royd is a human affiliated with SDN as its lead engineer. He was given the nickname Royd due to another coworker being named Roy already. He often works behind the scenes, working on the maintenance of hero gear. Likewise, he helps Robert repair his Mecha Man suit. He is known to be both extremely smart in the laboratory sense as well as an extremely capable mechanic.
