This is a list of minor characters created specifically for the Cartoon Network animated series Teen Titans.

Contents

Allies

Batman/Bruce Wayne

Batman had made a cameo and was mentioned in the show and in the comics Teen Titans Go!: in 'Apprentice', when Robin said, "I already have a father," then a swarm of bats came flying out; in the same episode, a Wayne Enterprises building made an appearance, referring to Bruce Wayne (his playboy billionaire alter-ego). It also referred to Thomas Wayne, Bruce Wayne's dead father, and his family company for years when Bruce Wayne's parents were still alive. In "Haunted", when Raven entered Robin's mind, there was a cameo as a shadowy appearance blocking the bat ears. As he is not voiced by Kevin Conroy or Rino Romano the show is not related with the DC Animated Universe or The Batman (TV series). In the comics based on the show, Batman made a cameo in Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Robin's origins in Teen Titans GO! #47.

Chu-Hui

Voice Actor: Takayo Fischer Chu-Hui is known as "the True Master", a legendary martial arts master despite her appearance as a small, elderly lady. She lives on a temple located on a mountaintop in China near a remote, agricultural village, and has three animal guardians in the form of a bear, a snake, and a monkey, who have human knowledge and speech. The guardians test those who want to become her students.

NOTE: Chu-Hui is named after series background painter Chu-Hui Song.[citation needed]

Cron and Kai

Cron and Kai are Centauri police that went to Earth to capture Blackfire. They are techno-organic humanoid crab aliens with a special weapon that extends a capture tentacle that constricts and neutralizes any special superpower of the person who is captured by it. Their probes mistook Starfire for her sister. After Robin pointed out that there was another Tamaranean on Earth, Cron and Kai took Blackfire into custody and cleared Starfire of any wrongdoing. This was their only appearance in the series.

Fixit

Fixit is a cyborg hermit who can control machines with his mind. When Cyborg's power cell fails during a battle with Mumbo, Fixit takes him to be repaired in his underground home. However, his repairs are actually aimed to remove Cyborg's human parts, after which he attempts to download Cyborg's memories, but he is overwhelmed by the emotions of life he finds therein. The Titans find Cyborg in time for him to explain to Fixit what it really means to be human. Fixit understands this, and Cyborg offers to help him return to a life with a more human existence. He also appeared in in "Teen Titans Go!" #2 where Gizmo stole the electronic stuff and attacked the Titans. While at Titans Tower, Fixit accompanied them to build a large robot 'Titans Go-Bot 5'.

Galfore

  • Voice Actor: Alan Shearman

Galfore is the hulking Tamaranean k'norfka (the equivalent of a legal guardian) of Starfire, and has raised her since birth. When Starfire arrives on Tamaran for her marriage ceremony, he refers to her by her real name, Koriand'r. After defeating Blackfire in battle and exiling her, Starfire receives the crown and becomes Grand Ruler of Tamaran, but she decides instead to return to Earth and gives her crown to Galfore. Unlike all other Tamaraneans named, Galfore's name does not conclude in and'r.

Larry

Larry is a Bat-Mite-like counterpart of Robin from another dimension, whose real name is Nosyarg Kcid (Dick Grayson spelled backwards). His right index finger has the power to bend reality, and he uses it to watch Robin. He enters the Titans' dimension to help fix Robin's broken arm but fails to do. He breaks his own finger during a scuffle with Robin as he keeps insisting on helping him; his reality-warping power is unleashed upon the city, changing it first into a embodiment of a child-drawn picture, and later - when Johnny Rancid seizes the power for himself - into a dark, demonic domain. After Larry's finger is repaired, he returns to his own dimension, but not before Robin offers him the chance to fix his broken arm one last time. He succeeds but accidentally traps Robin in another reality in the process.

On the episode in which he appeared, the theme song was sung in Japanese by Puffy AmiYumi producer Toshiro Kai.

Melvin, Timmy, Teether, and Bobby

Melvin, Timmy, and Teether comprise a trio of pre-adolescent children targeted by the Brotherhood of Evil for their fledging superpowers. Melvin, the only girl in the group and also the eldest of the three, has the ability to spawn creations from her imagination, so far just a giant animated teddy bear named Bobby. Timmy, the second oldest, throws earthquake- and sonic boom-inducing temper tantrums, and Teether, the baby, can eat any form of matter and spit them out like bullets. Raven, their appointed guardian, tries to save them from Monsieur Mallah, but the children and Bobby manage to take him down on their own and they are made Honorary Titans.

Bobby is Melvin's "imaginary" teddy bear friend. His powers include super strength, invisibility, and leaping ability, and he uses his invisibility to hide from people he does not trust. This leads to Raven disbelieving in him for most of the episode, believing instead that Melvin's power was poorly-controlled telekinesis.

The quartet are brought to the final battle against the Brotherhood of Evil by Raven, who cautions them to "stay away from anybody older than you!". They are seen blocking an attack by Monsieur Mallah, but other than that their participation in the battle is marginal.

Sarasim

Sarasim is a warrior princess from an ancient time. Her tribe, which is under siege from a horde of monsters, is saved when Cyborg appears to defeat them. Together, she and Cyborg fight her traitorous tribesman, Krall, and a band of green glowing creatures summoned by the Witch. The two develop a relationship that is interrupted when Cyborg is whisked back to the present before he can aid Sarasim against Krall, though he later learns that she had managed to defeat him on her own.

NOTE: Sarasim's name is derived from the DC Comics character Sarah Simms, a romantic interest of Cyborg's introduced in the Wolfman/Perez era.[citation needed] She also appears in the Teen Titans Go! comics, albeit in an appropriately modified version.

Silkie

Silkie (originally named Larva M-319) is one of the many mutant larvae created by Killer Moth as part of his scheme to take over the city. When he was stopped by the Teen Titans, Beast boy bonded with one of the larvae, secretly kept it as a pet at Titans Tower, and named it Silkie. After Silkie destroys Titan Tower, Beast boy gives Silkie to Starfire while Cyborg and Raven search his room. Starfire bonds with Silkie and feeds him Glorka Berries from Tamaran. Apparently, Glorka berries make Silkie grow, so Robin demands that Starfire get rid of the creature. Starfire abandons him on an island with a note ("Please be kind to monster") carved into a rock. Killer Moth later transforms him into a monstrous moth, and the lepidopterized Silkie battles the Titans but becomes confused about where his loyalties lie, recalling the pains and kindnesses each of his guardians had brought him. Silkie then molts, shedding his giant moth form, and reunites with Starfire; after the battle he lives with the Titans as their official mascot and pet.

Soto's Dog

The Dog is Soto's pet who is capable of articulate human speech and limited shape-changing and also seems to like Raven, compelling him into constantly tackling her. He escapes Soto's ship and crash-lands on Earth, where he inadvertently runs into Beast Boy. The Titans mistake him for Beast Boy instead, and at first try to revert him back to human form. He then reveals his true intellect and agrees to help the Titans in recovering Beast Boy. After Soto is beaten, he and the Dog agree to switch roles of master and dog.

Tramm

Aqualad's fish mechanic and friend, Tramm helps the Titans fix their T-Sub. He speaks in gibberish and has the appearance of a child with webbed hands and feet, scales, and a fish-like head. He can increase his strength and size when challenged to fight (much like a pufferfish) Although he defeats XL Terrestrial and meets up with Aqualad, they are both overpowered by Plasmus and Trident. When he is freed by Más y Menos, he fights alongside Aqualad to defeat the Brotherhood of Evil.

NOTE: Tramm is named after Cartoon Network's executive in charge of production Tramm Wigzell.[citation needed]

Val-Yor

Val-Yor appears in the episode "TROQ," in which he helps the Titans defeat The Locrix. The episode title is a Tamaranean word that means "nothing" and is used as a slur against Starfire's race. He calls her this word, but after she saves his life and helps him complete his mission, he refers to her as "the good kind," which she and the team also considered offensive. His prejudicial tendencies cause the Titans to sever ties with him completely. His name may be reference to Lar Gand aka Valor, and he also slightly resembles Captain Atom.

The Shalas

The "Shalas", as they are so called by fans, are seen only in the episode "stranded" They call them the "Shalas" because that is the only sound they can originate on their own. They often copy Raven, which eventually annoys her enough that she says things such as "Don't! Go away!" When the Shalas step on her cape as she tries to fly away. The Shalas simply reply "Don't go away! Don't go away! Shala!" At the end of the episode, we see Raven getting treated like a "Goddess"

Enemies

Adonis

Adonis is a lanky young man in an oversized, strength-enhancing suit of armor built from car parts. He loses a fight with Beast Boy when both combatants get covered in a strange liquid substance that causes each person to become a hulking werebeast. He is also easily defeated by Cyborg after the latter acquired a special overdrive chip. After Adonis and Atlas' unsuccessful attempt at defeating Pantha for the Brotherhood of Evil in the season five finale, Herald sends his armor into another dimension and then defeats him with a single kick.

Angel

  • Voice Actor: None

Angel is a H.I.V.E. student who helps out the Brotherhood of Evil and appears alongside Punk Rocket to (unsuccessfully) take out Bumblebee. Her known powers are flight and enlarging her wings to attack her opponents. She is only seen attacking Bumblebee in the final battle before being frozen by Más y Menos.

Atlas

Atlas is a large and arrogant robot that enjoys video games and is obsessed with winning. He possesses great strength and multiple weapons, and refers to himself in the third person. Atlas has a servant, Spike, whom he treats poorly but depends upon to equip his weapons and tools. Spike leaves Atlas when Cyborg fights him for his friends, having come to accept Atlas' true attitudes as unbearable. As a member of the Brotherhood, Atlas is sent with Adonis to take down Pantha, but he fails and his leg is then severed by Bushido in the final battle. His remaining parts are then frozen.

Billy Numerous

Billy Numerous is a minor villain and student at the H.I.V.E. Academy. His power is self-duplication and he is known to brag about his massive crime spree around Jump City to his clones (his only friends). The Titans defeat him by using holograms to counter his natural self-duplication powers, causing him to push his power past its limit and bring all his clones back to his body. He later becomes a member of the H.I.V.E. F.I.V.E. Billy is sent along with Gizmo to capture Kole and Gnarrk on the orders of the Brotherhood of Evil, and he is easily defeated by Pantha in the final battle. After his escape attempt is blocked by Kid Flash and Jinx, he is frozen along with his compatriots.

Recently he has appeared in comics (Catwoman #78, April 2008) as part of the main DC Universe.

Brushogun

Brushogun is formerly a Tokyo artist who fell in love with a woman he drew. He used Japanese dark magic to bring her to life, but was then cursed with the ability to create live ink drawings. Brushogun was believed responsible for various criminal outbreaks in Tokyo. Yet upon tracking him down, the Titans discover he is actually an innocent yet frail old man hooked up to a giant printing press and held captive by Police Commander Uehara Daizo, who forced Brushogun to create criminals that Daizo would capture to look like a hero. When Daizo jumps into Brushogun's vat of magical ink, he emerges as an ink monster, which absorbs Brushogun. Robin defeats the monster by pulling Brushogun out of it, causing the ink creature to revert back to Daizo. Finally released, Brushogun dies in Robin's arms by fading into nothingness. Brushogun's name is a play on "brush", for his powers, and "shogun", a Japanese military dictator or leader.

Cinderblock

Cinderblock is a humanoid concrete monster who is used to break Plasmus out of prison. He was easily defeated by Robin due to a tracking device planted on him that led Robin to Slade. He was a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, teaming up with Johnny Rancid to capture Mas y Menos, but only succeeded in capturing Menos. Cinderblock was instrumental in Beast Boy's plan to infiltrate the Brotherhood of Evil's secret base by having Jericho take over his body. He was later frozen with the other villains at the base. He is the first villain fought (in the very first episode), and is also an enemy faced in the Teen Titans videogame.Cinderblock can also combine with Plasmus and Overload to form Ternion.He cannot speak, but can yell and grunt.

Recently, he has appeared in comics (Titans #17, November 2009) as part of the main DC Universe. He is initially shown battling the newest incarnation of Teen Titans in downtown San Francisco, and is somehow able to absorb most of their attacks with little damage. However, Static is able to distract Cinderblock long enough for Beast Boy and Wonder Girl to impale him through the back with a large metal pipe, causing his body to crumble. This does not defeat Cinderblock, and his body begins to reform itself. Before he can fully heal, Bombshell hurls his head into the San Francisco Bay. Though his ultimate fate is unknown, Static is later seen asking Aquagirl to retrieve the severed head from the bay.

One notable difference between the comic and the cartoon versions is that the comic version can speak, albeit in sentence fragments. He also purportedly has the power to regenerate his body when it is shattered.

Cironielian Chrysalis Eater

There are rare occasions where a Tamaranean during puberty become a chrysalis, but some do not survive after being eaten by creatures called Chrysalis Eaters. By turning into a humanoid form, she lures Starfire into her clutches in an attempt to devour her but is interrupted by the other Titans. Starfire uses her newly-acquired power of shooting beams out of her eyes to send the Chrysalis Eater to its death of being eaten by a monstrous plant.

NOTE: The Cironielian Chyrsalis Eater is named after series director Ciro Nieli, who also created Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!.[citation needed]

Control Freak

Control Freak, the Titans' self-proclaimed "arch-nemesis", is an overweight and unshaven movie fanatic who is notorious for using his super remote control to warp reality to suit his movie-inspired images. However, he rarely uses his great intellect, preferring instead to make himself look "cool" in TV Land or committing crimes that will make him look like a villain. Upon finding out that he is not on the Titans' list of notorious villains, he angrily exclaims that he is a recurring villain in the series and therefore should be on the list. He was a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, but even with his remote he proved to be unable to defeat Killowat by himself until the Puppet King intervened. Like the other Brotherhood of Evil villains, he ends up flash-frozen by the Titans.

NOTE: According to his character designer Derrick J. Wyatt, Control Freak is based on an idea Dwayne McDuffie had created for the Impulse comic book but never used[citation needed]. He also may be inspired by Batman villain Film Freak. His self-introduction at the beginning of "Fear Itself" is a possible reference to Darkwing Duck.

Fang

Fang is a mutant with a giant four-legged spider for a head, and is Kitten's original boyfriend. His powers are the ability to move at fast speeds and jump vast distances, as well as firing sticky web goo and paralysis-inflicting venom beams. He breaks up with Kitten but then attacks Robin for taking her as his junior prom date; he is defeated and then arrested along with Kitten and her father, Killer Moth. He later joins the Brotherhood of Evil, and teams with Private H.I.V.E. to take down Jericho but fails. In the final battle, he is captured by Speedy and frozen.

H.I.V.E. Headmistress

The headmistress of the H.I.V.E. in the first season, she sends Gizmo, Jinx, and Mammoth to destroy the Teen Titans on Slade's order, but they fail. When she told Slade that she will discipline them when they are retrieved from the authorities, Slade tells her that they succeeded in "delivering the message." In the third season, Brother Blood takes over her academy while she is listed as missing. She rejoins the villain cast in the fifth season as a member of the Brotherhood of Evil and is flash-frozen after the final battle.

Johnny Rancid

Johnny Rancid's personality and appearance is a mix of a punk rocker and biker. When Larry the Titan breaks his magic finger, Johnny takes control of Larry's unleashed power and becomes a muscular, demon-like brute. When Larry uses his powers to revert everything back to normal, Johnny loses his powers and crashes into the earth. Rancid later returns with his robotic pet "dog" named Wrex, who himself is destroyed by the Titans after being distracted by a game of fetch, is rebuilt as the monstrous Wrexzila, and is later eaten by Silkie. As a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, and with his demonic powers somehow restored, Johnny teams up with Cinderblock to capture Más y Menos, but both are frozen when the combined force of the Titans attack them in the Brotherhood's headquarters.

Kardiak

  • Voice Actor: None

Kardiak resembles a giant heart. Its abilities include the ability to change the shape of its valves into other mechanical objects, and it has an affinity for capturing and devouring small children. Raven uses a spell to break it, but it regenerates and later kidnaps a girl, which the Titans eventually prevent with Raven using a dark magic spell on it. Later Kardiak attempts to capture Beast Boy for the Brotherhood of Evil but fails, and is frozen in the final battle.

Katarou

Katarou is a martial artist who defeated Robin in combat. He claimed to have trained with the True Master, but it was revealed that he failed in his attempt to reach him, so he decided to use Robin to get past the True Master's obstacles without any efforts on his part. When he attacked Robin for the right to train under the Master, Katarou was apprehended by the guardians of the mountain who were friends of the Master and thrown out. He later joined the Brotherhood of Evil and captured Bushido, but was defeated by Bushido in the final battle.

Kitten

Kitten is the spoiled daughter of Killer Moth and the girlfriend of the mutant Fang. She first appears when Fang breaks up with her for undisclosed reasons. Not wanting to attend the junior prom alone, she talks her father into blackmailing the city with a large swarm of mutant moths to force Robin to become her date, which instigated a fight between Fang and Robin, and then between Kitten and a jealous Starfire. Kitten, Fang, and Killer Moth were apprehended and jailed. Later on, the trio appear as members of the Brotherhood of Evil. She easily defeats Starfire while taunting Robin, but Starfire escapes before the final battle. Kitten is not present during the final battle but the other two are defeated and frozen.

Kyd Wykkyd

  • Voice Actor: None

Kyd Wykkyd is a silent bat-costumed former student at the H.I.V.E. Academy with the ability to teleport. After Cyborg and the Titans destroyed the H.I.V.E. and the various students became renegade villains, Wykkyd joined the H.I.V.E. F.I.V.E. with Billy Numerous. He is sent with Psimon to defeat Raven, but fails. In the final battle Wykkyd attempts to escape with the remaining members before he is frozen in the process, but not before witnessing Jinx's turn to the side of good.

Malchior

Malchior was a mighty dragon who fought the powerful wizard Rorek. Rorek's last curse seemingly defeated Malchior. However, Malchior rose up and captured Rorek, who used an ancient curse that ended up defeating and then trapping both of them in a book found by Raven. Passing himself off as Rorek, Malchior (in paper form) manipulated and enamored her by teaching her magic in order to get him released. After his true intentions were revealed, Malchior attacked the other Titans but is defeated when Raven sends him back into the book. Later Malchior joined the Brotherhood of Evil, and was sent into another dimension by Herald in the final battle.

Master of Games

The Master of Games is a character who takes the male Titans, along with Gizmo, Hot Spot, Wildebeest, Aqualad, and Speedy to his own world in order to have a Tournament of Heroes, in reality attempting to steal their powers with his magic amulet. After his plan is unsuccessful, he captures Raven, Starfire, Terra, and five others for the Tournament of Heroines; the exact line of events is unknown, though the heroines likely emerged triumphant as well. He later joins the Brotherhood, getting easily knocked out by Pantha, and is frozen during the final battle.

Mother Mae-Eye

Mother Mae-Eye is a haggish energy witch with candy-themed magical powers and a mass-produced army of gingerbread cookie soldiers. In her human form, she appears as a plump, rosy-cheeked and kindly woman dressed in a red, white and pink Mrs. Claus-esque outfit, but she is actually a three-eyed, ugly, wart-nosed witch capable of growing and shrinking in size. She feeds on the "sweet, nourishing affection" of her victims, whom she frequently calls her "sweeties," "little ones," "children," and similar terms of endearment (regardless of how old her victims really are); they, likewise, frequently address her as "Mother". She then traps and bakes them inside a gigantic pie (in a giant potbelly stove) under the guise of their "5:00 bedtime" when their love reaches its maximum; while it may look like she is tucking them in, she's actually securing them in the pie tin-shaped bed so she can get ready to cook them alive. Despite appearances, her exaggeratedly pleasant, maternal attitude is actually a false image. She cares nothing about her "children"; she really wants to feed on their manufactured love of her. In addition to the pies that she can mass-produce at her will, she is armed with a magical wooden spoon that she uses for most of her fantastical powers. She is named after the children's game Mother May I?. Also, she becomes angered when her victims either come out of the spell on their own or refuse to eat her pies. When communicating with the Titans, she usually speaks to them in motherese; i.e., in a manner reminiscent of communicating with a baby or toddler.

Mother makes her series debut hiding inside a pie that Cyborg mistakenly buys from a gypsy and brings to Titans Tower, where she is subsequently released. She puts the Titans under an immaturity spell by feeding them the pie, which causes them to mentally regress to childlike behavior and come under hallucinations that she is (and has always been) their mother. The only way to break the spell is to be hit over the head with a hard object or if Mother's concentration is broken. The witch also uses her powers at the beginning of the episode to redecorate Titans Tower, transforming it into a T-shaped gingerbread house and the surrounding area into a candyland, complete with fluff-covered fields, lollipops and candy canes for trees and a permanent rainbow streaking across the sky.

After Starfire succeeds in freeing the other Titans from the immaturity spell, they seal Mother back into her pie and send it to the HIVE Five's hideout, where she is last seen giving the villains pie and calling them her children. Mother later returns and joins the Brotherhood, but is defeated; she is one of the few villains not frozen, as she disappears when Hot Spot and Wildebeest are slammed into her by Madame Rouge.

It is interesting to note that the gypsy that Cyborg buys the pie from and Mother both look and sound exactly alike, implying that they are actually one and the same. This can be verified by the booth that the gypsy uses, for it has one cat's eye on it exactly like the one on Mother's apron and cap. Things belonging to other villains can be seen in Mother's stand, such as Control Freak's remote and the Puppet King as a regular marionette.

Mother is loosely based on Mother Grimm, a character featured in a Legends of the Dark Knight storyline.[1] She also is based around the Looney Tunes character Witch Hazel, but only in her true witch form. Her intention of baking and devouring her victims and the T-shaped gingerbread house are based on the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel.

Mumbo

The Amazing Mumbo is a turquoise-skinned magician whose powers are largely based on stage magic feats, noted by Robin as a "former stage magician now employing his skills for theft and mayhem." He is actually a old man but he uses the wand he has to give himself blue skin and uses the wand to "perform" his powers. He first battled the Titans in a junkyard and flees after being confronted about a jewel theft. Cyborg also goes missing, and the Titans give chase after mistakenly believing Mumbo was involved in his disappearance. Mumbo is captured and his wand broken, stripping him of his magic powers.

Later on he captures the Titans in his hat, renders them powerless and turns them into show animals (Robin-Monkey, Starfire-Cat, Cyborg-Bear, Raven-Rabbit, Beast Boy-Lamp (with the ability to turn into other inanimate objects, because Beast Boy can already turn into animals)), and after a humiliating show in front of an audience of Mumbo lookalikes, Raven defeats him by having Robin and Beast Boy (transformed into a paintbrush) paint them all in order to blend in with the stage, enabling them to return to the real world.

Like the other villains, Mumbo joined the Brotherhood but was frozen in their final combat. An alarm clock in Mumbo's likeness can be seen in Titans Tower in certain episodes, suggesting he is a popular stage performer despite living a life of crime. He also appears in a cameo as a conductor in The Lost Episode.

Nufu and Bob

Nufu is a species controlled by The Source, who uses Nufu Soldiers (aka Bob) to capture cows as power sources for their ships. Nufu's only known weakness is water, or someone consuming it, which is how it met its demise after being eaten by Cyborg. Bob is a servant of the Nufu Source. He and his clones were defeated when Beast Boy exposed them to water, turning them into their inanimate tofu-like state. Nufu came back to life in "Homecoming" Pt. 2 as a member of the Brotherhood under unknown circumstances, but did not participate in the final battle.

Overload

Overload is a villainous electric monster controlled by a small circuit board that harnesses electricity and the ability to control machinery, but is extremely vulnerable to water.In Car Trouble, he steals Cyborg's car, but is defeated. Slade used it in his plans by sending it to battle Raven. When it was a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, it was able to take out Lightning. During the final battle with the Brotherhood of Evil, Killowat absorbs Overload and leaves the circuit board behind, which is later frozen. In Aftershock part 2, he, Plasmus, and Cinderblock combined to form the rock/goo/eletric character, Ternion.

Private H.I.V.E.

Private H.I.V.E. is the eponymous villain from the H.I.V.E. Academy with a military background. He uses a hexagonal shield for defense and attack, as a counterpart of Guardian. He forms the H.I.V.E. F.I.V.E. with four other H.I.V.E. students: Jinx, Gizmo, Mammoth, and See-More. They later join up with the Brotherhood of Evil, but Private H.I.V.E. is not seen when the group takes on Kid Flash. He reappears to help Fang unsuccessfully defeat Jericho. Inside the Brotherhood's base, he discovers that Jericho is in Cinderblock's body, but Jericho suddenly possesses him. Private H.I.V.E. fights in the final battle under and later free of Jericho's control, but is beaten and then frozen. He says "sir" at the end of almost every sentence.

Professor Chang

Professor Chang is a mad scientist who runs an underground operation providing illegal services for higher-tier villains. Robin once forced him to hand over xenothium, the fictional power source for his Red X suit. In the third season, Robin goes to Chang, expecting the new owner of the Red X suit to show up for more xenothium, of which there is none. Chang sends Robin to a storage facility, which is a trap to get the xenothium for himself to power his new laser cannon. Red X teams up with Robin to destroy the cannon. Chang is imprisoned, but he escapes and attempts (with Brother Blood) to convert his students into cyborgs, but is thwarted by the Titans.

He is frequently seen in Red Star's flashback scene that recalls how he received his deadly powers. He joins the Brotherhood of Evil and helps them flash-freeze the captured heroes, but he and his cohorts are soon frozen themselves.

NOTE: Professor Chang is named after Teen Titans director Michael Chang.[citation needed]

Punk Rocket

Punk Rocket, a musical anarchist, moved from England to the United States to spread what he terms "the sound of chaos". He wears a sleeveless orange prison jumpsuit, and has gray spiked hair and multiple piercings. His weapon is a customized electric guitar that releases sonic blasts strong enough to knock back a bull elephant by 100 feet, and he is also able to ride it through the air like a surfboard.

Punk Rocket is first seen rudely interrupting a concert, but is defeated when Beast Boy goads him into cranking the guitar up to maximum, blowing up the sound system it is linked to in the process. Subsequently, Punk Rocket joins the Brotherhood of Evil and, along with Angel, attempts to bring down Bumblebee, but ultimately fails. During the fight just prior to the final battle, Más stops Punk Rocket by knocking him into a portal created by Herald with his horn.

Puppet King

The Puppet King is an evil marionette who sucks all of the Titans' souls into puppets, while switching the minds of Starfire and Raven, in an attempt to enact a ceremony that will turn the Titans' bodies over to him permanently. Raven and Starfire work together to stop him, and The Puppet King's spells are broken as the Titans' minds returns to their proper bodies. The Puppet King is then revealed as a lifeless marionette, which the Titans stow in their storage room. He is later revived and joins the Brotherhood, and along with Control Freak, he takes down Killowat but is beaten by Más prior to the final battle. However, the Puppet King can be seen in the crowd of the Teen Titans but did not show up after Beast Boy makes his joke. Instead, XL Terrestrial makes an appearance instead of the Puppet King even though he is also a member of the Brotherhood of Evil.

NOTE: The character was based on Puppeteer, who is a Green Lantern villain.[citation needed]

Red X

Originally, Red X was an identity Robin had conceived in an unsuccessful attempt to get closer to Slade. In the third season, the Red X suit is appropriated and used by an unidentified antagonist, though not an outright adversary, of the Titans. Though he is a thief who looks out only for himself, the new Red X appears to be more of an antihero, as he displays a few heroic tendencies. On one occasion he helped Robin to free the other Titans from Professor Chang, and in the episode "Revved Up" prevented the other villains from gaining Robin's "special case". He is usually hard to defeat because of his vast acrobatic skill, the large number of gadgets his suit has, and the fact that the suit was originally made to specifically counter every single one of the Titans.

Red X's suit allows him to teleport and fire energy beams, while the belt relies on power from a chemical compound called xynothium. His X-shaped palm gloves can form x-shaped projectiles which can act as shuriken, saw blades, timed explosives, restraints (by constriction or adhesion), or other high-tech functions. He appears to have a crush on Starfire.

Due to the similarity of his and Robin's fighting style, his antihero tendencies, and the fact that both characters share the same voice actor, it is widely believed in the series' fandom that Red X may be Jason Todd, the second Robin from the Batman comic series.[2] This was further implied in the episode "X" when Beast Boy created a diagram depicting the possible identities of Red X, which included Jason Todd on it as one of the possibilities. So far, however, few affirmative clues has been offered to the identity of Red X. It is possible Red X is a hero gone bad as in the episode "X" Robin says "I thought you don't like to play hero" to which X answers "doesn't mean I don't know how".

In the episode "Homecoming part 2" in the episode he is seen lined up with the other new members of the brotherhood; but in the episode "Titans Together" where the brotherhood is defeated he is seen fighting another supervillan, so there is some controversy about which side he was on. A good explanation on how Red X chooses sides is best described in the episode "Revved Up" when Gizmo asked "What side are you on barf brain?", Red X replied "Mine!", which would mean he does take any one side, more likely he chooses what ever side benefits him at the time.

See-More

See-More is a minor villain from the former H.I.V.E Academy. His powers, which include multivision, x-ray vision, hypnosis, projection of eye-shaped bubbles, laser beams, and balloon-based flight, stem from a variety of colored "eyes" on his helmet. As a member of the Brotherhood of Evil, he and Warp are unable to take down Herald, and he is later beaten by Jericho and frozen in the final battle.

Soto

Soto is a formidable Tofu alien who comes to Earth looking for his green dog. He inadvertently abducts Beast Boy in dog form, but decides to keep him because Beast Boy can change into any animal he wants. Soto is of a childish nature; his outfit resembles footie pajamas, and the controls of his spacecraft, toddler's toys. Despite this, he is extremely dangerous and has shown astonishing endurance, able to take a combined attack from the Teen Titans without injury. He surrendered his new pet upon being defeated by the Titans, after which he found himself face-to-face with his real dog, who informs him that he was tired of being the pet. They switch roles, with Soto eagerly agreeing to let the dog be his new master. In the background in the episode "X" neon letters show the word "Soto" but this could just be a reference to Alex Soto. He was one of the very few non-major villains to not be a member of the Brotherhood of Evil.

NOTE: Soto is named after Teen Titans director Alex Soto.[citation needed]

Space Monster

An unidentified Space Monster is seen tearing apart a space station, which the Titans are sent to investigate. The monster nearly defeats them with his sonic powers, but then falls into a reactor. It catches up with them as they flee the station and lands on their ship, but is thrown off and crashes onto the planet where the Titans also land. It falls down a chasm during battle with Robin and Starfire, and presumably dying along the way.

Another one was seen on the Gordanians' prison ship in the retroactive prequel Go!.

Steamroller

  • Voice Actor: Uncredited

Steamroller is a gigantic cybernetic monstrosity used by Brother Blood with two cone-shaped gauntlets which, when joined together, form his namesake. Steamroller almost manages to defeat the Titans East until Cyborg brings them together as a team. It turns out that the battle was a ruse for Steamroller to download the access codes to the Titans East's tower from Cyborg himself. Steamroller was later used by the Brotherhood of Evil to help the I.N.S.T.I.G.A.T.O.R. take down Thunder. Although successful in that mission, he is defeated by the Titans and frozen in the final battle.

Trogaar

Trogaar is the Gordanian commander of the prison ship on which Starfire was being transported to the Citadel as a slave. After Starfire escaped from the ship, he led a task force to recover her, only to run afoul of Robin, Raven, Beast Boy and Cyborg, who rose to Starfire's defense. He was the Titans' first takedown as an official team.

Ternion

Ternion was a combination of Overload, Plasmus, and Cinderblock, formed when Slade and Terra took over the city. In Aftershock 2 Terra was losing a battle to the Teen Titans, so Slade sent the combination of goo, rock, and electricity to take the titans. After a long battle Ternion was defeated. Many of Slade's robots attacked, but were defeated. Ternion then got to it's feet and attacked again, but yet again, lost. Slade and Terra were defeated, and the trio of villains reverted back to their original forms. Ternion appears in the Teen Titans video game, and after a long duel, turned out to be a fake monster.

White Monster

  • Voice Actor: None

An unnamed creature - possibly an android - capable of merging into and assuming the attributes of materials such as concrete, oil, brick, stone, water, and fire. The Titans cornered it in a recycling plant, but it was too powerful for the four Titans to defeat on their own, so they called Beast Boy for help. The creature's defeat is not shown, but is inevitable.

Witch

  • Voice Actor: Uncredited

Krall's magical assistant, she is referred to only as Witch. He freed her from eternal limbo and she thus became his slave. Though condemned to obey Krall, she twisted his every command for her to make him a hero: she sent her insectoid minions to attack Sarasim's town, brought Cyborg from the future, and transformed Krall into a more powerful version of her minions when he asked her for more power to defeat Cyborg. Her fate following Krall's defeat remains unknown; though she is seen among the assembled entourage of villains enlisted into the Brotherhood of Evil, she does not participate in the final battle.

Wrestling Star

  • Voice Actor: None

Wrestling Star is a large man wearing a red mask, red gloves and boots and a star on his blue leotard. His primary power is super-strength. A student of the H.I.V.E. Academy, he later joins the Brotherhood and is defeated in the final battle by Pantha, who, according to lucha libre tradition, claims his mask before he is picked up by Kid Flash and frozen.

XL Terrestrial

  • Voice Actor: None

XL ("Extra-Large") Terrestrial is a H.I.V.E. student who helps the Brotherhood of Evil take out Tramm. He was unable to take out Tramm, but Tramm was defeated alongside Aqualad by Plasmus and Trident. His powers grow in size by pushing the arrow on his chest, which he does during the final battle, but suffers the same fate as the other Brotherhood members in the end. However, apparently due to a script error, when the Brain is frozen, he is seen in the crowd of Titans groaning about Beast Boy's "brainfreeze" joke. It should be noted that Jerico may have been in control at the moment, as Xl's eyes were normally red, but were green at the time.
