This is a list of major and minor characters featured in the Cartoon Network and Kids' WB animated series Teen Titans.
Overview
Primary Teen Titans
Robin
Robin is the male protagonist leader of the Teen Titans. Despite lacking superpowers, he is fierce and highly disciplined, with heroic virtues based on experience and reputation and he leads the team well. As shown in the episode "Go", Robin formed the group after aiding Starfire in her escape from captivity with help from Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Raven. Prior to this, he left his mentor Batman to become an independent crime-fighter. The Teen Titans Go! spin-off comic reveals he is Dick Grayson, the first Robin, but this is not depicted in the series, though there are several hints such as Larry's name being Nosyarg Kcid, him becoming Nightwing in the future, and Raven witnessing his parents' death at the circus in "Haunted". Robin is best friends with Starfire, whom he secretly has romantic feelings for. Their relationship develops throughout the series, with them becoming a couple in the finale film Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo.Starfire
Starfire is a Tamaranean princess who was kidnapped by the Gordanian overlord Trogaar and intended to be sold into slavery. She escapes to Earth and causes chaos in Jump City, leading to the formation of the Teen Titans. She is also Robin's love interest and best friend, and they secretly harbor romantic feelings for each other; they finally confess their love and become a couple in Trouble in Tokyo.Cyborg
Cyborg is an African-American human who was converted into a cyborg to save his life following an unspecified accident. His condition is virtually impossible to disguise, though he initially attempts to do so by covering much of his body with heavy clothing and a hood. He is skilled with technology and is Robin's second-in-command and Beast Boy's best friend.Raven
Raven is the gothic half-demon daughter of Trigon and Arella. She possesses vast magical abilities and was intended to act as Trigon's portal to invade Earth. While he succeeds in doing so, Raven works with the Titans to defeat him.Beast Boy
Beast Boy is a former member of the Doom Patrol who can transform into any animal. His early training was highly disciplined and militarized, leading him to initially address more experienced heroes as "Sir". Over time, he becomes less serious and the comic relief of the team.Terra
Terra is a nomadic girl who can manipulate the earth. She is later revealed to be a double agent working for Slade and sacrifices herself to stop him from destroying Jump City.In the series finale, "Things Change", a girl resembling Terra resurfaces, but tells Beast Boy that she no longer wants anything to do with the Titans. In an issue of the Teen Titans comic book following the events of the series' final episode, Geo-Force — Terra's superhero half-brother — makes an appearance in which he reveals that Terra, like he, is a member of the royal family of Markovia who fled their home nation after they were both subjected to forced experimentation that gave them both earth-manipulating superpowers. Geo-Force is later convinced to leave Terra alone and leaves without ever reuniting with her.
Honorary Titans
Aqualad
The ex-sidekick of Aquaman, Aqualad makes his debut in the episode "Deep Six", employing the help of the Teen Titans in defeating an Atlantean criminal named Trident. He butts heads with Beast Boy in that episode as he feels shown up by the impressive young Atlantean, but in their battles with Trident, Beast Boy and Aqualad make peace by the episode's end. He returns in "Wavelength", needing the Titans' help to take out Brother Blood's second undersea H.I.V.E. headquarters. Following Blood's escape, they give chase and track him to Steel City, where he and Bumblebee form the Titans East. He later falls prey to Blood's mind control, turning on appointed leader Cyborg and does battle with Titans Central; he is freed after Cyborg defeats Brother Blood in the final battle, and stays on with Titans East.Argent
Argent is a female Honorary Titan who first appears in "Calling All Titans". Deputized by Starfire while walling off a fractured dam, she is soon attacked and captured by General Immortus and flash-frozen at the Brotherhood of Evil's headquarters in Paris.

Bumblebee is introduced as a H.I.V.E. student, but is later revealed to have been a spy in the organization working in league with Aqualad. As she reveals in a staged fight with Cyborg, she is immune to Brother Blood's hypnotic influence. She later becomes a founding member of Titans East, convincing Cyborg to become the team's leader, when in fact it turns out to be an elaborate trap staged by Blood when she falls back under his control, though she appeared to be the only one of the group able to occasionally slip free. After Blood is defeated, Cyborg steps down from Titans East, making Bumblebee the new leader.Bushido
Bushido is a young silent Japanese swordsman, who is made an Honorary Titan to fend off an incursion by the Brotherhood of Evil, which is preparing to mount an assault on young heroes.Gnarrk

When Kole activates her crystallization powers, Gnarrk is able to use her body to great effect as a bludgeoning tool.Herald
Herald is a young hooded African American boy who is made an Honorary Titan in the wake of the Brotherhood's efforts to seek and destroy the next generation of superheroes on Earth.

Jericho is another honorary titan who, alongside Herald, is summoned to the Titans' rendezvous point after the Brotherhood conducts their search-and-capture campaign on the team members across the globe. Jericho is a gentle and kindly albeit mute boy with the ability to possess others via eye contact, taking full control of their bodies, memories, and abilities, the only evidence of which is the black and green eyes the victims assume once possessed.Jinx
