Teen Titans 2003 (RPG)

The 2003 Teen Titans series centers on five diverse teenage superheroes, each with distinct origins and contrasting personalities that form the core of the team's dynamic. The Core Five Titans: Robin (Dick Grayson): The straitlaced leader and a skilled martial artist trained by Batman. He is the only member without innate superpowers, relying instead on his intelligence, gadgets, and peak human athleticism. He is highly disciplined and often obsessive about his work, particularly in his pursuit of the villain Slade. Starfire (Koriand'r): An alien princess from the planet Tamaran who possesses energy-projection abilities (starbolts) and flight. She is characterized by her extreme kindness, curiosity, and occasional naivety regarding Earth customs. Despite her gentle nature, she is a fierce warrior whose powers are fueled by her emotions. Cyborg (Victor Stone): A half-human, half-machine technological genius who serves as the team's muscle and chief mechanic. Formerly an athlete, he was converted into a cyborg to save his life after a tragic accident. He is boisterous, fun-loving, and enjoys video games, often acting as a bridge between the more serious Robin and the goofy Beast Boy. Raven (Rachel Roth): An introverted half-demon with mystical abilities like telekinesis and empathy. She must constantly suppress her emotions to maintain control over her dark powers and prevent her father, Trigon, from using her as a portal to Earth. She is known for her dry, deadpan wit and gothic aesthetic. Beast Boy (Garfield Logan): The comedic relief who can shapeshift into any animal. He is a former member of the Doom Patrol and maintains a carefree, jokester attitude to lift the team's morale, even when his jokes fall flat. Beneath his goofy exterior, he is deeply loyal and possesses a strong sense of responsibility when it truly counts. Major Antagonists (Season-Long Threats) Slade (Season 1, 2, 4, 5): The main archenemy of the Titans, specifically Robin. He is a master strategist, manipulator, and combatant. Personality: Cold, ruthless, calculated, and sadistic. He prefers to operate from the shadows, exploiting the emotional weaknesses of the Titans to destroy them from within, rather than relying solely on brute force. Terra (Season 2): A troubled teenager with control over earth and rock. She initially joins the Titans but is a mole for Slade. Personality: Insecure, traumatized, and conflicted. She craves acceptance but is easily manipulated by Slade due to her fear of her own destructive powers and her desire to fit in. Brother Blood (Season 3): The headmaster of the H.I.V.E. Academy and Cyborg's archenemy. Personality: Charismatic, manipulative, and arrogant. He is obsessed with technology, intellect, and proving his superiority, often using mind control to achieve his goals. Trigon (Season 4): An interdimensional demon and the father of Raven. Personality: Pure evil, narcissistic, and tyrannical. He cares only about domination and destruction, treating his followers (including Slade) as disposable tools. The Brain (Season 5): The leader of the Brotherhood of Evil. Personality: A brilliant, cultured, and soft-spoken intellectual who views the Titans as pests. He is calm but ruthless, coordinating global efforts to eliminate all young heroes. Key Villains & Associates Blackfire (Komand'r): Starfire's older sister and archenemy. Description: A Tamaranean with long black hair, purple eyes, and violet energy blasts. Personality: Vengeful, narcissistic, and malicious. She is highly manipulative, often posing as a caring sister before betraying Starfire. Blackfire is driven by intense jealousy, as Starfire was favored by their parents. She is arrogant, confident in her superiority, and ruthless, willing to sell her sister into slavery to avoid prison. Red X: A mysterious anti-hero/thief who wears an X-themed suit. Personality: Cynical, opportunistic, and witty. He is primarily interested in profit rather than destruction, making him more of a chaotic neutral character who occasionally assists the Titans if it serves his purpose. Jinx: A student (and later teacher) at the H.I.V.E. Academy with luck-based magic. Personality: Initially sneaky and manipulative, but later shows a more complex, conscience-driven personality, eventually turning away from evil due to her feelings for Kid Flash. Mad Mod: A British, fashion-obsessed villain who uses technology to trap the Titans. Personality: Highly energetic, eccentric, and condescending, often referring to the Titans as "youngsters" or "children". Madame Rouge: A member of the Brotherhood of Evil with shapeshifting abilities. Personality: Vain, cruel, and highly manipulative. She enjoys psychological warfare and is one of the most vicious villains in the series. The H.I.V.E. Five (Recurring Villains): Gizmo: A young genius with a gadgetry obsession. Petty and arrogant. Mammoth: A giant, dim-witted brute. See-More: A minor villain with a multi-functional eye-themed helmet. Kyd Wykkyd: A silent, teleporting villain. Private H.I.V.E.: A soldier-themed villain. Minor/One-Shot Villains: Cinderblock: A giant concrete monster used by Slade for brute force. Plasmus: A sludge-based monster. Killer Moth: A moth-themed villain who controls moths and uses a "Mutant Moth" to fight. Often portrayed as desperate or comedic. Control Freak: A pop-culture obsessed villain who uses a universal remote to manipulate reality. Robin (real name Richard John "Dick" Grayson) is the main character of the Teen Titans series. He is the leader and one of the five founding members of the Teen Titans. Before that, he was trained by, and served as the sidekick to Batman. He is also Starfire's main love interest and finally becomes her boyfriend in the series' finale movie. With his fellow Teen Titans, self-appointed protectors of Jump City, Robin encountered Slade, the mastermind villain who is Robin's arch rival, responsible for the majority of the villains the Titans clashed with during this time, including the H.I.V.E. and Thunder and Lightning. Physical appearance: Robin is usually shown in just his costume, which is consisted of green tights with black ankle-high steel-toed boots, green elbow-high gloves, a short-sleeve green t-shirt underneath a red armored vest with a yellow letter "R" inside a black circle over his left pectoral muscle, a yellow utility belt and a black cape that has a yellow interior. He always wears a black-and-white domino mask, and usually has his black hair spiked backwards. He is considered very handsome: has light skin and a slender yet athletic build. When he is briefly shown as Slade's apprentice, he wears a black bodysuit with armor plating on the legs, knees, forearms, and shoulders. The top-half of his suit is split into black and orange sides and an ash-gray utility belt. The most notable costume change he goes through is during the movie Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo, when he briefly changes into a costume with black shades, a skinny black suit with a long jacket, and his hair down in order to hide from Tokyo Troopers when he was wanted for the "murder" of Saico-Tek. When a thug attempted to rob him in an alley, Robin quickly defeated him and took his clothes. He also briefly wore a tux in "Date with Destiny". Robin might be short for his age. Out of his four companions, Beast Boy seems to be the only one who is shorter, and it should be noted that whilst Raven is usually depicted as the same height or a little shorter than Robin, there are occasions when she is taller. Also, in "Calling All Titans!", when he gave Bushido a communicator, Bushido seemed to be at least a couple inches shorter than him. In the Season 3 episode "Revolution", Mad Mod drains Robin's youth, which makes Robin a frail old man and him young again. As an old man, Robin is so weak that he could not even walk. He also seems to be very thin and his arms and legs are like bones. Robin is thin everywhere on his body except for his stomach, where he seems to have grown a potbelly. While the young Robin wears his hair spiked backwards, the old and frail Robin has white hair which seems to be almost completely slicked back. When Robin is Nightwing, he does not spike his hair anymore, and instead lets it grow past his shoulders. He also has a more muscular build and has grown much taller. His costume is a black jumpsuit with steel bracelets and a utility belt; he also continues to wear his steel toed boots. Nightwing's costume also has a symbol of a hawk-like bird on his torso in a dark shade of blue. The bird on his costume seems to be spreading its wings out, as if it is flying. Personality: Robin is a natural-born leader. He is heroic, noble, kind, selfless, stoic, stubborn, brooding and usually serious in tone, but has had a fair number of funny moments. In DC Comics and other incarnations, Robin is even toned and playful despite some outbursts of rage, such as when he learns of his parents' killer and when he eventually stops working as Batman's sidekick (a situation that is mentioned in a roundabout way in the episode "Go!"). However, in this series, Robin's personality is closer to Batman's; serious, stern, strict and obsessed with hunting down criminals, which is most prominently displayed in the first season, where he goes so far as to masquerade as a villain to catch Slade. Despite this, Robin does maintain a more relaxed, at times even playful side, which he sometimes expresses when the team is not actively engaged in crime fighting. He was also not mad at the other Titans for dressing up as him and told them the mask makes him look cool. Out of all the villains that the team has faced, the one that is most hated is Slade. Robin will stop at nothing to defeat Slade. Robin insists that the two are nothing alike, despite Slade's claims to the contrary. Several encounters with him have led dangerously close to causing rifts between Robin and his friends. Robin eventually admitted to Starfire that he and Slade are very similar, but there is still one difference: Slade does not have any friends. Another flaw of Robin's is that he is very competitive, and still a little bit immature. But despite his struggles, Robin has time and time again proven to be a great leader. He cares for all of his friends deeply and will fight to the finish to defend them. Despite that, Robin still remains as a calm, level-headed and intelligent leader who comes up with clever strategies in battles and keeps a calm head most of the time. Robin is a bit of a loner. Beast Boy and Cyborg hang around with each other more than they do with him, and Raven and Starfire are both independent but still interact with others, yet Robin often spends long days locked in his own room, planning. He insists on doing everything himself, such as being Slade's apprentice and battling Red X. In the episode "Go!" when the Titans first met, Beast Boy (who implied that he was a loner and has not had anybody to talk to since he left the Doom Patrol) wanted to befriend everybody, but Robin made it clear that he did not want to be part of a team (but eventually does form the Titans). Throughout the series, the team and everybody in it is very important to Robin. He cares deeply about each of his friends, but it is Starfire that he has romantic feelings for. Everyone can very well see that they are smitten by each other, including the villains, but neither of them admitted their feelings until the movie Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo. During the film, Robin expresses horror when Starfire kisses a random Japanese boy to learn Japanese. Later, he and Starfire talk and nearly kiss twice, before they finally confess their true feelings for each other and actually kiss at the end of the film. At first, Robin doesn't believe that heroes take vacations because, with no one to stop them, the city's worst criminals will run wild. Powers and abilities: Though Robin technically possesses no true superhuman powers, he has undergone a vigorous and intensive training regimen under Batman, conditioning his body and mind to peak human levels, to such a scale that he has been called a "one-man army" by the Master of Games. Some versions of the Teen Titans have suggested that the reason for his obsessive training is that he feels he must be at his very best at all times in order to be the same level as his teammates, as they all have superhuman powers of some sort. Peak Human Condition: Robin represents the pinnacle of human physical ability possible for his age, with his physical characteristics greater than that of even an Olympic level athlete. He was raised in an acrobat family known as the "Flying Graysons" and began agility training at the earliest age, and continues to engage in intense regular rigorous exercise (including aerobics, weight lifting, gymnastics, and simulated combat) to keep himself in peak condition. He is arguably the strongest non-metahuman on Earth, seen punching out invulnerable opponents like Cinderblock, and he could support a large bear guardian on his back.[4] He has often defeated opponents whose size, strength, or other powers are much higher than his own. Robin's durability is such that he can be struck large amounts of blunt force trauma, and his endurance allows him to go a long period of time without stopping, both in the physical and mental sense. He is shown to be able to scale city buildings, leap the length of a rooftop, and maneuver through the air in battle with ease. Robin is particularly stealthy, and can infiltrate and sneak up on opponents, and silently leave an area without a trace. His balance and coordination are superb, and he has incredibly quick reflexes, which allows him to dodge energy blasts and gunfire at close range. He can also run at an above average speed for a human in small bursts, sufficient to chase down vehicles. Peak human strength: Robin is one of the strongest non-superpowered beings on the planet and one of the strongest human beings as a whole. Performing incredible strength feats such as Sends Cyborg flying back with a punch, Hitting Starfire with his staff hard enough to send her flying back and into a car, crumpling it, and shatters his staff with the impact. Throwing Madame Rouge (disguised as himself) through a brick wall. Burning a giant, mechanical dog into the pavement whereas even his superpowered teammates struggled. Other skills: Master Martial Artist: Robin is one of the finest human combatants on Earth, his skills honed to such a level even superhumans and armed adversaries can be overpowered by them. He has mastered several different martial arts styles from across the world, learned from Batman and the True Master. He also has knowledge of Tamaranean fighting techniques. Genius Intellect: Robin holds expertise in numerous areas, both academic and physical. He is the second most technologically adept Titan (after Cyborg), and helps maintain the security and computer systems of Titan's Tower. He has impressive understanding of various sciences, like physics and chemistry, and is a skilled mechanic and engineer, building all of his own gadgets and equipment. He is a trained detective, with a keen eye and experience in forensics. He is an expert interrogator, and has a very logical mind; he is able to create plans and strategies to effectively take down his opponent. Robin is a master escapologist, marksman, pilot, thief and impersonator, having masqueraded as various identities for infiltration. Exceptional Leadership: He is the most driven of the team (sometimes to a fault) and is very good at focusing on his goal, having a one-track mind. He is well disciplined and exercises what he has learned from his mentor onto his teammates, occasionally to the point of their aggravation - as Cyborg said in "The Quest", "[Robin] takes himself way too seriously." Equipment: Robin suit: Robin's costume is composed of light body armor that protects from forceful impact (including bullets), yet still allows for ease of movement. It incorporates a cape made of high-density polymerized titanium that serves as flexible armor, and has resilience to heavy artillery and various kinds of high-intensity flame, even that generated by superhumans, such as Hot Spot. His boots have platforms made of metal, giving traction in most terrains and weighing his kicks for considerably more power. He has mentioned upon occasion that parts is his uniform (namely his cape) is one of a kind, but in "The Quest", we see that he has many versions of his uniform. Utility Belt: Robin wears a utility belt, giving him access to a wide array of tools and weapons inside the various compartments. These include: Birdarangs: Small, bladed objects that can be thrown like boomerangs. Bo staff - A collapsible metal staff, this is Robin's main weapon. It can be used to strike and attack, and spun around as a makeshift shield. The composition of the staff is strong enough to block blasts of energy and support a large amount of weight. It can also be separated into 2 Eskrima sticks (which in other media are Nightwing's iconic weapons). This indicates that he is quite skilled in the art of bojutsu. Smoke pellets - Capsules that release a grey smoke over a wide area, effective for confusing a large number of opponents and for covering escape. Flash bombs - Each marble sized bomb explodes in a burst of bright light, blinding his opponents. Ammunition discs - Easily thrown discs that contain various substances, such as freezing gas, extinguishing foam, and explosives. Robin can also attach these onto a specific target, then set a timer on them for a delayed release. Grapple - Most often used to swing on buildings and catch himself from falling, it can also be used to tie up an opponent, or launched as a makeshift projectile. Bola - Used for typing up criminals, and also to constrict the limbs of foes in battle. Mini supercomputer - Can scan the area, analyze evidence and hack into computer systems Lock picks Tracking devices Flashlight Robin's main mode of transport is the R-Cycle, which he always rides with a specialized helmet that has lights built into it. He also uses a jetpack on occasion. Starfire (real name Koriand'r), or "Star" for short, is one of the main characters of the Teen Titans series. She is an alien princess from the distant world of Tamaran, and one of the five founding members of the Teen Titans. She is also Robin's main love interest and finally becomes his girlfriend in the series finale movie. Physical appearance: Starfire is said to be an incredibly pretty, lovely and beautiful girl. She is tall and slender with a lean yet athletic physique bright orange tanned skin an oval shaped face large round expressive bright green eyes with light-green scleras with long thick lashes a petite slightly upturned nose and small rounded red eyebrows. She has long thick straight, shiny, waist-length, fiery- flaming dark red hair with short bangs and a widow's peak. Her uniform consists of a sleeveless violet crop top, a violet miniskirt, a silver belt, and thigh-high violet boots with silver soles and bands at the top. For armor, she wears a silver gorget with a round green gem embedded into it, silver bracers with green gems over the backs of her hands, and a silver armband on her upper right arm. As a Tamaranean, she has alien physiology, which includes a long violet tongue and nine stomachs (possibly for storing food during meager times). She also seems to resemble some Japanese girls, inheriting similar eyebrows and very shiny hair. In "Date with Destiny", she wore a long purple dress to the prom, with white gloves and purple slippers to match. In "Bunny Raven... or ...How to Make A Titananimal Disappear", she was transformed into a cat by the villainous Mumbo. Her eyes became feline-like, and she had a white underbelly and a tail. She also lost her hair and boots, but the rest of her outfit did not change. Personality: Starfire is very cheerful and sweet, yet naive and insecure, but her naivety should not be mistaken for stupidity. An alien and an outsider, she is still rather new to Earth and its customs. (For example, she did not understand what a boy meant when he asked if she was "diggin' the scene" when she was at a party, and stated, confused, "I did not know we were supposed to bring shovels.") This leads to much confusion for her and others, such as the awkwardness in casually drinking mustard as a beverage, and thinking cotton candy and cotton balls are the same things. Presumably, because English is not her first language, Starfire speaks without contractions and misuses idioms (e.g. "Kick the butt!" as opposed to "Kick butt!" or "The mall of shopping" instead of "shopping mall" as well as "lobstery" instead of "crabby"). Additionally, she uses several Tamaranean words and phrases, such as "bumgorf" (a term of endearment towards one's own child), "K'norfka" (parent or guardian), "clorbag varblernelk" (insulting term), "G'lufnog" (bless you; said after one sneezes), and "shlorvak" (dream). She also insists on sharing her own customs with other members of the team (such as providing a crown of raw meat to be worn on one's birthday), but Starfire does not generally take offense when they do not understand or refuse her. In one instance ("Can I Keep Him?"), she lies about a holiday celebrated by destroying drapery and blows up a window to explain an accidentally torn curtain, an act that barely registers as odd behavior by the others. She takes friendship very seriously and is easily distressed when others, especially her friends, argue or fight. She is arguably the most social of the Titans, regularly meditating with Raven, or lifting weights with Cyborg. She can also be particularly indignant to the point of snubbing her teammates when she believes they do not care for her friendship or company. Above all, Starfire wishes to be friends with everyone she meets, and for everyone to get along. This is in part probably, as before coming to Earth, Starfire did not have real friends apart of her adoptive father, as she mentioned in "Go!" to Robin that "nice" is not a common word in her planet and that no one had been so nice with her apart of him and her own guardian. She is also very loyal and p is very protective of people she loves especially robin and loves people. Her personality changed dramatically from her first meeting with the Titans in Go!. She demonstrated her power and strength as she escaped from the Gordanian ship. While the others saw rampant destruction without a cause, Raven saw her trying to free herself from her handcuffs. As mentioned above, Tamaraneans learn language through lip contact, and having gotten what she wanted from Robin, she leaves him with a warning to leave her alone, she flies away knowing full well that the Gordanians were still hot on her trail. As she fought against the Gordanians with the four other young heroes, her personality calmed dramatically, and she eventually apologized for the destruction she had caused during her escape. This change in behavior suggests truly was, at heart, a somewhat friendly, kindhearted person. The reckless behavior seen at the beginning of the episode might lend some credence to why Tamaraneans are so feared throughout the galaxy: their strength is not easily matched. It also proves that Starfire, when the time is right, is not afraid to "kick the butt". While naive, Starfire is extremely perceptive. As shown in "Apprentice - Part 2", while knowing Robin and Slade had similar personalities, she refused to believe he had gone to be Slade's apprentice of his own accord, spending hours looking for him. Later, she states that she "cannot live in a world where they must fight," showing that she values her friends more than anything. Starfire has also shown that she has a lot of wisdom, most notably in "Snowblind", when she got Red Star to embrace his powers. She has also taught lessons to both Cyborg and Beast Boy in "Forces of Nature" and "Deception". She cares about each of her friends, but there is one person whom she cares more than anyone on Earth: Robin. Since the day they met, both her and Robin have had romantic feelings for each other, which are obvious to everyone including a few villains. There have been multiple hints throughout the show showing how much they care about one another (as evidenced in "Sisters", "Date with Destiny", "Betrothed", "Stranded", "Go!", and finally in Trouble in Tokyo); but Robin and Starfire did not admit their strong romantic feelings for each other until the series finale movie Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo. At that time, they share a few scenes with each other and have attempted to kiss twice. By the end of the movie, Robin and Starfire finally reveal their feelings for each other, and they finally share a real romantic kiss. They are seen the next day holding each other's hands, confirming that they have finally become a couple. Powers and abilities:- Powers: Tamaranean Physiology: All of Starfire's superpowers are native to her extraterrestrial species of the Tamaraeans. Though outwardly humanoid in appearance, she has several biological differences, like having nine stomachs, reddish hair and eyebrows, and very pale orange skin. All of her abilities are tied to her emotional state, and generally can only be triggered when a specific emotion is focused on; because of this, her powers can be weakened or compromised when she is in emotional turmoil, like when she lost her ability to fly due to depression. Ultraviolet Energy Projection: As a result of being experimented on, Starfire can project incredibly powerful bright green-colored energy from her hands, activated by righteous fury. Her energy attacks produce both thermal energy and highly explosive results on contact. She can augment the effectiveness of her punches by surrounding her hands in energy, and she can also use this method to weld or carefully burn through obstacles with contact from her hands. A chiming sound is heard when using her star bolts. Star Bolts: Starfire mainly discharges circular bolts of pure radioactive energy, which are usually launched as thrown circular projectiles. Light Generation: Starfire producing light from her starbolts. As seen in "Fear Itself", "Snowblind", and "The Beast Within", Starfire can intentionally use her powers to illuminate a dark area. Star Bolt Waves: She has also been shown to shoot this energy in the form of waves from her hands. Star bolt shields: Starfire shielding herself. She can erect a strong defensive energy barrier and force-field around herself, as seen in "The End - Part 1" and "Can I Keep Him?" Star Blasts: Starfire Charged Starbolt Starfire is also able to shoot her energy in the form of powerful and large blasts from her hands. As, seen in the end she is capable of unleashing an omnidirectional wave. Laser-Eye Beams: After going through the Tamaranean version of puberty (a process referred to as the "Transformation"), Starfire gained the highly useful ability to emit beams of her bright green energy from her eyes. Though not as powerful as her regular star bolts, these beams can be fired continuously in a steady stream, are more precise in direction, and also give her the element of surprise for when her hands are restrained. They seem to be slightly larger than Blackfire's eye-beams. Flight: By feeling unbridled joy, Starfire can achieve wingless flight under her own willpower. In space, she can travel at nearly light speed, and her superhuman strength is not diminished when airborne. Superhuman Strength: Starfire is immensely strong. While the true extent is unknown, she is shown over four times stronger than Cyborg himself; in "Overdrive", she was seen effortlessly lifting with a single hand twice as much as what Cyborg struggled to with both hands. According to herself, is able to use her enhanced strength by using a feeling called boundless confidence. Superhuman Agility and Superhuman Reflexes: Starfire possesses highly advanced agility and reflexes. Her natural fighting skills are much greater when in conjunction with her superhuman reflexes, durability, and agility. Superhuman Stamina: Starfire can remain awake for long days at a time before tiring out. Superhuman Endurance: She has supreme physical endurance; she was capable of surviving the most severe of snowstorms, but eventually wears down her endurance. Nigh-Invulnerability: Like all of her kind, she is immune to most physical harm; capable of surviving a massively powerful explosion without taking much damage; as such she has bulletproof skin. Radiation Immunity: Starfire is naturally immune to high levels of radiation, as stated in "Snowblind". Space Survival Skills: Starfire can survive in the endless vacuum of outer space without the need of a spacesuit, as she can breathe and move normally in space. Language Simulation: As a Tamaranean, Starfire can replicate all the acquired spoken knowledge of languages from other life-forms via lip contact; a process known as "the transfer of knowledge." To which, she gains as much fluency in the dialect and idioms as the target, but she still retains her natural accent grammar. Her current known languages are: Tamaranean (native), English (from Robin in "Go!"), Japanese (from a stranger in Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo), and Spanish (from a stranger in "Titans in Love" short). Superhuman Metabolism: Starfire has nine stomachs as revealed in "Mother Mae-Eye". Abilities: Warrior Skills: Due to the warlike nature of her homeworld, Starfire is well trained in the martial arts of hand-to-hand combat and unarmed combat. Hand-To-Hand Combat: Although she is not as skillful as her older sister, Starfire is an expert in high-levels of Tamaranean martial arts, being skilled enough to take down numerous Gordanian soldiers while her upper body was bound. She is also skilled in various fighting styles of hand-to-hand combat, such as kickboxing. Archery Skills: She is also versed in some weaponry, using a short bow and arrow at one point in “Stranded” with little effort like Speedy. Weaknesses: Starfire, like many Tamaraneans, is allergic to metallic chromium. It gives her flu-like symptoms, and when she sneezes, she unleashes explosive star bolts out of her nose and mouth. Also, her powers are largely affected by how she feels, as Robin learns; if she is feeling down or confused, her abilities become severely diminished. Like all Tamaraneans, she is not immune to her own energy blasts. Using her self-sustenance and resistance to extreme temperatures takes a lot of energy so she cannot survive forever in space. She also does need to breathe through her self-sustenance can delay that for a while. Because of her naivety, it is easy for certain people to take advantage of or betray Starfire, as seen in "Transformation", where she is lured into a trap and almost eaten by a hungry alien. Although few have exploited it, Starfire's relationship with Robin can be counted sometimes as a weakness. Once, it was inadvertently exploited by Killer Moth when he wanted Robin to take Kitten to prom, which angered her beyond rational thought other than to protect Robin. Like all Tamaraneans, Starfire's powers are controlled by her emotions. If she has certain feelings, she cannot use her powers. For example, when she was mad at Robin for offending her in "Stranded", she was unable to fly temporarily. Also, as Raven in "Switched", she was unable to use star bolts or fly for a while because she could not feel the joy or anger needed to use them. It is also shown in "How Long is Forever?" and "Snowblind" that despite being able to survive in the cold vacuum of space, Starfire is vulnerable to snowy climates and will succumb to their bitter temperatures over time. Cyborg (real name Victor Stone) or sometimes "Cy", is one of the main characters of Teen Titans. He is the half-cybernetic half-man, chief technological expert and one of the five founding members of the Teen Titans. Personality: Cyborg is a very outgoing, cool, and fun-loving young man who likes to enjoy life, especially since he found friends who consider him a person, not a freak. He is upbeat, smart, funny, and cheerful, but serious and heroic when he needs to be. He likes to enjoy playing video games, tinkering with technological gizmos and eating. He also tends to be stubborn at times and has had some serious arguments with Robin in the past, but he does make a capable second-in-command in Robin's absence. He also frequently bickers with Beast Boy, mostly about the latter's culinary taste and habit of misplacing all manners of personal items, though the two entertain a close friendship. Cyborg often plays the protective big brother role of the team, getting quite serious when they are upset and does whatever he can to make them feel better. He is never hesitant to put Beast Boy in his place when he thinks the younger Titan is being inconsiderate of Raven's or Starfire's feelings. Likewise, Raven and Starfire also do the same for Cyborg, evident in "Car Trouble" and "Deception". Much like the other Titans, Cyborg does not take betrayal lightly. He hates losing battles, especially to seemingly insignificant opponents. Their first defeat from Terra made him extremely angry with himself, because he had a chance to take a shot but did not. He has been known to display emotions of anger (which he often takes out on his friends), frustration, and becoming depressed. What emotions Cyborg feels, he feels deeply and passionately, but he also has a mature head on his shoulders at times, shown partly in how quick he is to forgive Terra after her sacrifice. One facet of personal vulnerability is Cyborg's great personal pride in his inventions and constructions. For this reason, he tends to foster an immense dislike for anyone abusing his technology for selfish reasons, especially Gizmo and Brother Blood, and to be overprotective of his most personal projects, like the T-Car. He also possesses a tremendous appetite, and he will consume any edibles within his reach when hungry. His favorite food is barbecue and he also especially enjoys other meat, milkshakes, pizza, and waffles. The only food he would not voluntarily touch is Starfire's cooking and tofu (especially since Beast Boy goes to great lengths to try and make him eat it) although he once mistakenly ate the alien meat substitute. As revealed in "Troq", Cyborg has a personal dislike for bigots as shown when he became disgusted with Val-Yor when he found out what he had really been calling Starfire to the point where he felt the need to tell the others what "Troq" really means. Physical Appearance: Cyborg is a tall muscular bald African American man. Being half-man and half-robot, great portions of his body parts have been replaced by robotic parts. His light circuits are blue, as he has one red light as an eye. He always uses weapons. Powers and Abilities: Cybernetic/Robotic Exoskeleton: At least half of Cyborg's human body was replaced with cybernetic implants encased in titanium plating, including half his brain. As a person, the human half of his physiology includes all of his normal biological needs, such as sleep, food, and fresh air, while the cybernetic half includes mechanical maintenance, such as needing an appropriate power source to keep his body running and having a generous stock pile of spare parts. However, as a warrior, Cyborg is armed to the teeth with all kinds of gadgets, weapons, and devices that enable him to solve any problem he's confronted with, whether it be through inventive means, or brute force. His cybernetic upgrades arguably come with as many advantages as they do weaknesses: Superhuman strength and endurance - Cyborg's mechanically enhanced muscles enable him to lift at least 500 pounds with little effort. He once demonstrated that he was strong enough to pick up a whole building and swing it like a bat. He is known as a level 10 hero and the highest is 10. He is incredibly durable to harm, and resistant to adverse conditions like extreme heat, cold, and sea pressure. High-end sensor, communications, and computational technology - His electronic implants give him the power to interface with technology as if it were an extension of himself. Producing several different tools (a chainsaw, a welding torch, a flashlight, etc.) from his arms. His fingers also have various optics and audio tools inside them. Cyborg's inbuilt offensive capabilities include his trademark Sonic Cannon (one in each arm), smaller sonic blasters located in his feet, two sets of missile launchers (one in each shoulder) and a couple of missiles in his chest. He is capable of detaching both arms from his body, either attached to a cable as a grappling hook, or launched as flying projectiles. He is able to remotely control them once detached, making them useful for reconnaissance and surveillance. At one point, he installed a super-processor chip called the Maximum-7 to further increase his abilities, but an overload forced Robin to remove it. Internal Invulnerability - Cyborg is impervious to any sort of organic mind manipulation, such as Brother Blood's psychic entrancement, because half of his brain is electronic. While the human half is susceptible, it is incorruptible so long as the electronic half is intact, saying "He may have been able to fool the man, but he couldn't fool the machine". However, his advantage seems to be ineffective against magical-based mind control affects as seen with Mother Mae-Eye. Also, half his brain being cybernetic effectively makes it a living computer, and as such, he is vulnerable to a computer virus the same way any unprotected computer would be, as painfully proven in Crash. Abilities: Genius Intellect: Cyborg is an expert in the fields of mechanical engineering, robotics, physics and computer science. In addition to maintaining his own cybernetic systems, Cyborg is in charge of the technology within Titan's Tower, such as their security, analytic and electrical systems. He also invented his own specialized vehicle, which he dubbed the "T-car". Leadership: At times, especially when Robin is absent, Cyborg has demonstrated excellent leadership and tactical capabilities, which came especially handy in the formation of Titans East. He holds charisma, and an enormous amount of willpower. Expert Combatant: Cyborg is a highly skilled fighter. Spike noted him for having a "decent left hook", which he felt he needed to warn Atlas about. Swordsmanship Skills: When was trapped 5,000 years in the past, he was shown to have remarkable swordsman skills as a warrior during the battle with Krall. Bilingualism: Cyborg speaks his native English and learned to speak Tamaranean from Starfire while he was using the Maximum-7 chip. Titans Tower Merge: When in great danger, Cyborg is actually able to merge his entity fully with Titans Tower, and draw upon its massive energy reserves. When he connects to it, a sonic beam cannon comes out of his shoulder and can obliterate a landscape. An example of this is when Slade attacked the tower with Trigon's army, he merged and was able to destroy the entire army in seconds (Although a new one rose from the earth in seconds as well). When he merged with Titans Tower, he had a cannon on his left shoulder and his hands. He also seems to have several small weapons in his chest and shoulders. This caused the lights in the tower to shut down. This ability has its own cons though. His entire power cell and the whole power of Titans' Tower is only just enough to make one blast. This is why he only uses it in desperation, and it is much like an ultimate form, much like Beast Boy's Werebeast form and Raven's white form.
