A/N: Here are the main characters for the team! Thanks to all the entries and all characters are creds to the authors who submitted them. I do not own Young Justice because if I did, I would have made a season 3...
Character 1
Name: Owen Joseph Greene
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance: Suntanned skin, shaggy, dirty blonde hair with that constant, 'just rolled out of bed' look to it, bright blue eyes, dimples, mostly straight teeth, but more crooked on the bottom. Muscular torso and arms, with an athletic build overall. Thick eyebrows, but not bushy, that are partially covered by his hair (which goes to about halfway down the nape of his neck)
Height/Weight: 5'10", 135-140 lbs
Nationality: Just American/Caucasian. He's of Norwegian descent though, mainly his great grandparents.
Hero name: Echo
Likes: Running or jogging, reading (mostly sci-fi or dystopian stuff), surfing, watching movies, his friends, banter, pranking, alternative music
Dislikes: People who can't take a joke, backstabbers/traitors, arrogance, cats, writing, guns, spiders
Costume when fighting: No mask, actually coordinates with his mentor, Black Canary, very well. He wears a blue jacket over a black shirt, though he did draw the line at the fishnets ;) Instead, he simply wears black pants and boots.
Everyday clothes: He likes a simple look, mainly jeans and a short-sleeved v-neck top, either in grey or blue. He also wears black Converse or maroon Vans.
Undercover Costumes: No change for stealth, but for polar he just wears a heavy white coat, white bottoms, and white snow boots.
Powers/Abilities: Sonic voice/projection of voice, like Black Canary. Despite his sonic cry, his voice is actually on the deeper side (but not like, baritone deep).
Mentor: Black Canary
Backstory: It's classic and cliché, actually, something Owen sometimes gets embarrassed about (since it's so…typical.) He grew up in a nice home in California, right by the beach. Good grades, good-looking, popular, nice life overall. He has two loving parents who don't know about his… extracurricular activities. He's especially close with his mother, a biochemist. In a classic, comic-book event, Owen was exposed to some type of radiation at age 14 while visiting his mother in her lab at work one day. Unaware, he simply went home and carried on with his day. He woke up the next morning, had a spider crawling up his leg, and let out a scream. A supersonic one. When his parents rushed in, the dazed Owen brushed them off, telling them it was his alarm or something. They still, to this day, have no idea of their son's powers. He doesn't love his powers, as it's not exactly deemed 'manly' to have a high-pitched scream.
Personality: Definitely the class clown type of kid, witty and whatnot and always pulling pranks and acting foolish, but also low-key sensitive, and serious and hard-working in the right moments. He cares about people's feelings, and respects everyone. He's actually pretty domestic; as in he gets along very well with kids and can also cook (well, somewhat). He loves alternative/rock music, bands like The Killers, Green Day, U2, etc. He's also very protective and loyal, almost to a fault. If anything, his downfall would be his constant need to be there for everyone and everything at once, biting off more than he can chew, that type of thing.
Does he/she want to be in a relationship?: Yes. He's actually a pretty romantic kid, and would probably go for a girl who can hold her own and banter with him, who also shares a few of his interests but contrasts him enough to make their friendship/relationship fun and interesting.

James' parents were killed in the resulting explosion, but the spirit saved James by bonding to him and in doing so sacrificed his connection to the fade.

It was during this period that James discovered his powers, causing him to be withdrawn but Wonder Woman was able to help him control his powers, and in time she took him to the Justice League to be trained further.

Reading glasses are kept at all time but only used when needed. Sweaters and jeans are her go-to lazy day outfit. General outfit is a loose top over a large even oversized button up not well buttone up. Top slightly tucked in high waisted jeans rolled up to the ankles and converse. Hair usually in a high pony tail or in a bun.
Undercover Costumes:
Stealth Mode: Pretty much the same:
Winter mode: Put a long sleeve under the jacket instead of a tank top, black pants instead of shorts, and a scarf and we're good to go.
Powers/Ability: A hand to hand combat specialist with psychiatrist background and a knack in sleight of hand, illusions, and deception/mimicry; she'd be your perfect thief. She can read people through visual and verbal cues as well as she can project illusions and deceive anyone. A master of disguise and recon.
Mentor: Zatara
Backstory: Her father, a retired magician turned lawyer, and her mother, a psychologist, had taught her about humans and their habit to lie, and cheat at an early age. They had also taught her to be proud of her culture and raised her on the ideas of honor from the samurais, but also the wit of the ninjas of legend. Her family was well off and she had been given the chance to do every activity she wanted, judo, aikido, gymnastics you name it. It didn't help that she was a quick learner and got bored easily with her activities.
Her father well known in his days as a magician and even more so as a lawyer had instilled a sense of not only wonder but justice in her and it had cultivated into something more than her father would've expected. Her father unfortunately was shot due to a case he had taken against the yakuza. Taken in by Zatara to cultivate the magic she had apparently inherited from her father she specialized in illusions rather than spells of any sort as she hated speaking backwards. From her mother she had learned how to analyse people and in a sense read their minds and predict their moves, as the general populace are quite predictable and adhere to social norms.
Personality: With most people she is blunt; she doesn't like to beat around the bush. She lives her life at her own pace but always finishes what she starts and dislikes others who can't do even that. Although she also has a distaste for liars she excels at acting and can easily spot a lie when told one. She has some dark humor and can be considered sadistic at the wrong times, that is usually conveyed in her habit of teasing others and plainly enjoying the superficial harm or distress physically or mentally of others. Observant and intelligent, she can sometimes get lost in her thoughts.
She tends to get tunnel vision when working on something for an extended amount of time. She gets bored easily and resorts to games or watching people to keep her entertained as there are many different kinds of people and all of them change and adapt. She's confident in her abilities to read others like an open book, but she's hasty in her judgement of others. She's cynical when it comes to strangers and their motives but easily trusts her friends and so can be considered quite naive to those that know her. She often overlooks the necessities of life, such as proper nutrition and sleep, and when tired becomes a bit of an air head. She may forget to eat her veggies every now and then but she definitely will never forget about her stash of candies and cakes in the kitchen. She may be a bit harsh on others but she protects her friends and loves them in her own weird way. Surprisingly really good with children in a tough love kind of way.
Does he/she want to be in a relationship?: Sure.
