The Emotional Spectrum & Lanterns

The Green Lanterns are one of the most iconic groups in all of DC Comics. In the modern era, this has grown to include members of similarly organized defenders for each color in the color spectrum and the emotions they represent. Absolute Overpower will include each of these Corps, and below you will find the members included in their ranks.

Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum

Green Lanterns are known for embodying great willpower and imagination. Each of the other Lantern Corps has its corresponding domain along the Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum (EEM).

Red is ruled by rage. Orange is the domain of greed and avarice. Yellow is the domain of fear. Blue is the correlation of hope in the universe. Indigo spread compassion and rehabilitation. Violet sits over the complex emotion of love. There also exists Black and White, the domains of death and life, but they do not yet have any corpsmen in AO.

Lantern Corps

Lantern Corps are the chosen defenders of each color of the EEM.

Joining a Corps

Players who want to start campaigns as a Lantern can work with their DMs to do so. They should just ensure that their character beliefs and Traits and Tags align with their chosen Corps. If at any point these come into conflict, players may lose their power rings as is common with all the Corps.

Lanterns Corps Members

Below you will find all the known members of each of the EEM Lantern Corps. If you have established a Connection to any of these Corps, these are the included members.

Note: The below is not a full list of the Lantern Corps members, and should be considered written in stone. If any player chooses to take control of a listed character and does not want to be a Lantern, that will take precedence.

Red (Rage)

The Red Lanterns are fueled by their rage. The rings seek them out at moments of great conflict; when they let their rage consume them in totality.

Indigo (Compassion)

Often referred to as a “tribe” the Indigo Lanterns make their way through life with compassion.

A function of their compassion is rehabilitating some of reality’s most violent personalities.
