Fixit

Voice of: Tom Kenny Tom Kenny (b. ...


Fixit is a hermit and a cyborg. When Cyborg's power cell fails during a battle with Mumbo, Fixit finds Cyborg and takes him to be repaired. However, Fixit is actually trying to remove the human parts of Cyborg which he believes are pointless. When the Titans find Cyborg, he shows Fixit what it really means to be human and he lets Cyborg go. A hermit (from the Greek erēmos, signifying desert, uninhabited, hence desert-dweller) is a person who lives to some greater or lesser degree in seclusion from society. ... The term cyborg, a portmanteau of cybernetic organism, is used to designate a creature which is a mixture of organic and mechanical parts. ... ‹The template below has been proposed for deletion. ...


Fixit was partially based on the comic book character Psimon.

Galfore

Voiced by: Alan Shearman


Galfore is the Tamaranean k'norfka (apparently meaning something akin to "nanny" or "bodyguard") of Starfire. When she arrives on Tamaran for her marriage, he refers to her as Koriand'r (the first time in the series a character has been referred to by his/her real name) and acts very loving and affectionate toward her. As her parents are not seen in the episode, he is likely her guardian and takes very good care of her. When Starfire defeats Blackfire in battle, she receives the crown and becomes Empress of Tamaran, but she decides instead to return to Earth and places the crown on Galfore's head. Starfire is a DC Comics fictional superhero. ... Emperor is also a Norwegian black metal band; see Emperor (band). ...

Sarasim

Voiced by: Kimberly Brooks


Sarasim is a warrior princess of long, long ago. Her tribe, which is under siege from a horde of aliens, is saved when Cyborg appears to defeat them. Impressed, Sarasim forces Krall to hand over his sword. Victor Vic Stone otherwise known as Cyborg, is a fictional character in the DC Comics universe, and is also a regular on the Teen Titans cartoon. ... ‹The template below has been proposed for deletion. ...


Sarasim seems to enjoy proving other people wrong. When Cyborg tells her that her people are primitive and wouldn't know how to power his battery, she has them harness the power of a nearby stream to do the job. Together, she and Cyborg fight Krall and a band of ugly wormlike things before Cyborg is whisked back to the present by Raven. Raven is a fictional character, a superhero in the DC Comics universe, specifically the Teen Titans comics. ...


Raven shows Cyborg, who is concerned about Sarasim's fate, a book from her (really) private library. The book tells of how Sarasim and her tribe beat the warrior named Krall, with the help of an armorless warrior (Cyborg without his tech).

Silkie

Starfire and her "bumgorf"
Starfire and her "bumgorf"

Voiced by: Dee Bradley Baker File links The following pages link to this file: Silkie (Teen Titans) ...


Silkie was at first one of the many mutant larvae created by Killer Moth who planned to take over the city with them once they had matured into their adult moth states. When the Teen Titans put an end to his schemes, Beast Boy bonded with one of the mutant larvae. Unknown to his friends, Beast Boy kept it as a pet at Titans Tower, naming it Silkie. Beast Boy hid this secret for a very long time until one day after battling Johnny Rancid when the Titans returned home to find most of their furniture eaten. Beast Boy knew who was behind it but didn't tell anyone except for Starfire who decided to keep his secret, bonding to the creature while caring for him on Beast Boy's behalf. Not knowing what he ate, Starfire fed him some alien food from Tamaran, but Silkie reacted strangely to the substance and had a monstrous growth spurt. Unable to conceal his enormous prescense, Starfire had no choice but to admit that she was caring for the not-so-little creature. Robin forced Starfire to get rid of Silkie before he ate the entire tower. Heartbroken, Starfire left Silkie on a remote island off the shore, inscribing the message "Please be kind to monster : )" into a rock for any future visitors. But as she prepared to go, Silkie grabbed on to her leg and refused to let go. Trying to hold back her tears, Star was forced to apply a small zap to Silkie's arm, releasing her from his grip as he backed away, hurt and confused at his "mommy's" harsh actions. Star would not be separated from her "bumgorf" for long, as Silkie's "father," Killer Moth, found him and transformed him into a monster. The monstered Silkie battled the Titans but became deeply confused about where his loyalties lay, recalling the pains each "parent" had brought him. Suddenly, and without warning, Silkie exploded in a blinding flash, leaving nothing but gobs of pink goo in his wake. Emotionally crushed, Star walked steadily to the remains of her dear friend, only to hear a peculiar noise. Sifting through the pink residue, she discovered her little Silkie, alive, elated, and back to his original form. He hadn't exploded: he had merely molted. Forgiving Star and presenting her with a big hug, the two discovered that the pink residue was actually an edible compound made primarily of Starfire's alien food. They partook in a snack, overjoyed to be together again. Silkie is seen in other Teen Titans episodes but does not play any role but acts as 'scenery'.

Larry the Titan

Voiced by: Dee Bradley Baker


Larry the Titan is the counterpart of Robin from another dimension. Cyborg proves that they share DNA and his real name is Nosyarg Kcid (which is Dick Grayson, the identity of the original Robin, backwards). He has the power to bend reality to his whim, which he uses to watch Robin from his dimension. He claims to be Robin's biggest fan. He comes to the Titans' dimension to see Robin fight, but Robin is out of comission after suffering a broken arm. Larry is hurt and accidentally warps reality into a crazy world where nothing makes sense. Examples of the consequences are Beast Boy's backwards talking, Raven's hair turning into strange shapes, and Starfire's head separating from her body. As Larry's finger is broken, he can't reverse it, and the Titans are forced to go to the tower to fix it. After reality is fixed, Larry returns to his own dimension. A classic image of Batman and Robin reinterpreted by painter Alex Ross. ... Space-filling model of a section of DNA molecule Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or deoxyribose nucleic acid is a nucleic acid that contains the genetic instructions specifying the biological development of all cellular forms of life (and many viruses). ...

Thunder and Lightning

Voiced by: Scott Bullock and Quinton Flynn, respectively A voice actor for video games. ...

Thunder and Lightning are based off of the comic book characters Thunder and Lightning.

In the animated series, Thunder and Lightning are brothers who just want to have fun, but they make life miserable for everyone else. Their powers are thunderous sounds and lightning bolts respectively. When they combine their powers, they can cause rain. Thunder is rather large, has a deep voice, and wears a blue suit. Lightning is skinny with a high, fast voice and wears a yellow-orange suit with straight-up hair (i.e. he was designed to look like a lightning bolt). Thunder is the sound of the shockwave caused when lightning instantly heats the air around it to up to 30 000 °C (54 000 °F). ... Multiple cloud-to-ground and cloud-to-cloud lightning strokes are observed during a night-time thunderstorm. ...


Slade, diguised as the "Old One", tricked Thunder and Lightning into setting fire to some posts which created a giant fire monster bent on destroying the city. It was stopped when Thunder and Lightning joined their powers to make it rain, therefore putting out the beast.
