Emotional Spectrum Headcannons

I'm back in my green lantern phase and I keep getting annoyed that the different lantern corps' don't feel balanced and distinguished with one another, so this is my take on each corp and their respective abilities.

Green Lanterns

As they are in the middle of the emotional spectrum and also straight up space cops, they would have the best average lantern abilities. They would literally have all of their regular abilities but amplified to make them stand out, plus said abilities should focus more on a constructive, defensive and maintaining order vibe.

Ability to create hard light constructs

This is a given, that's like their whole thing, but I would say on average they do this the best out of all the lanterns, like they are able to add more detail and their constructs would be more solid and harder to break.

Energy Projection and Force Fields

Also a given, I think these would be also more powerful than the other corps. And any blasts from their rings would be concussive not penetrative. This would also extend to the aura a lantern emits that mimics their native atmosphere.

Literally just referring to their uniforms

Resistance to other emotions

Hear me out, green lantern rings have less control over their users than the other lantern's rings, due to their willpower, I believe they should also be more resistant or immune to the influences of the other rings.

The Willpower Rule

Obviously if you have the willpower to achieve great and impossible feats, they should be able to. Such as make another ring or see the future. Again they are in the middle of the emotional spectrum they could theoretically tap into the other emotions and not be consumed by them.

Yellow Lanterns

As their rings are meant to inspire fear in others I believe that the yellow lanterns should have abilities that lean more into that idea rather than overlap as much with the green lanterns. However, as they were made from one another, there should be some connections and an interesting parallel to the blue lanterns would be to weaken the other lantern corps. These guys would focus more on stealth and tracking to create a sense of unknown and suspense.

Ability to create hard light constructs

Not very different from how they are in comics but these would be weaker than the typical green lantern constructs but would essentially, however, would be tailored to their targets fear.

Fear Detection

I believe to be able to do this they should have minor telepathy, just to sense when someone is afraid and even track them.

Energy Projection and Forcefields

Again similar to the green lanterns but their blasts would not concuss and would penetrate their target. And their aura would slightly heighten their natural senses to allow them to track their targets easier.

Invisibility

These guys are supposed to make people scared, they have to lean into that and having a corp that could track you without being seen would do this perfectly. Obviously, they can still be tracked via other means such as a green lanterns scanning ability.

Minor Energy Regeneration

Again as this ring is given to people based off them creating fear in others, the ring's power levels should be able to regenerate slowly and in small doses when they are able to create lots of fear.

Boosts Red Lanterns and Weaken others

Okay hear me out, if blue lanterns can boost green lanterns, I reckon yellow lanterns should be able to slightly boost red, only if they are concentrating. They should also be able to use fear to weaken the other lantern corps.

Blue Lanterns

They are very much a supportive corp, mostly boosting the others lantern corps. As they are generally considered the most powerful corp, I really want to stress that they can't do a lot offensively without a green lantern like in the comics.

Ability to create hard light constructs

They would only be able to do this in the presence of a green lantern, if they did they alone the construct would be very weak. Stand alone their constructs would be the weakest out of all the corps.

Energy Projection and Forcefields

Same goes here, without a green lantern, they would be unable to have any strong defense or offence.

Teleportation

Healing

They would be able to remove a red lantern ring, purify evil and heal almost all injuries even their own.

Boosts Green Lanterns

Literally the same as in the comics, both lanterns would become very powerful. Sometimes can boost other corps if they are focusing, it is not automatic like boosting a green lantern.

Minor Precognition

Very minor and only successfully done by the most hopeful lanterns.

Minor Energy Regeneration

Very similar to yellow, if they inspire enough hope they should be able to regain their ring power slowly and in small increments.

Orange Lanterns

Okay, this might be a hear me out idea as I love taking creative liberties. These guys just build numbers and power, their powers should all revolve taking stuff from the other corps and other people. To build a hoard and army. Their whole purpose is to build numbers.

Ability to create hard light constructs

I would also like to add that an orange lantern could take another lanterns already made construct if they are concentrating hard enough.

Energy Theft

An orange lantern can steal the energy from the other lanterns and recharge their own ring. They can also use and store temporarily the powers of the other lanterns when hit.

Minor mind control

If you are exposed to orange energy for too long you can become tempted to wear an orange ring.

Possession

Once you are killed by or wearing an orange ring your conscientiousness is trapped in the ring, that lantern can use you as an independent avatar under their control. This stacks until the final orange lantern has an immortal army.

Indigo Lanterns

Also kind of a hear me out, I really love a good juxtaposition. These guys are the wild card. They should be order keepers like the green lanterns but in a larger sense. I also strongly believe that people should also be chosen for their overwhelming compassion not just lack of. This would create a cool dynamic for redeeming criminals and killers. They would be very versatile and quick lanterns.

Ability to create hard light constructs

Energy projection and forcefields

Clairvoyance/Empathy

Similar to the yellow lanterns but these guys can see and track everything and everyone. As well as read their emotions and sometimes their body language.

Energy Conversion

To contrast the orange lanterns these guys should be able to change the incoming energy into a different form and redirect it.

Channel Emotions

They should be able to use the emotions of nearby lanterns, only while they are nearby or hit with their energy.

Teleportation

The best teleporters out of the all the corps

Mind Control

The ring is able to force compassion into those who have none, slowly rehabilitating them, it does nothing to users who have an abundance of compassion.

Red Lanterns

These guys are just straight offence, they should be built to destroy, kill and not be so weak. Obviously if members can control their rage, they would be able to do some higher brow abilities but overall they would just be brutal. Similar to the green lanterns the more anger a lantern feels the stronger they are.

Ability to create hard light constructs

Also not the best at doing this, as they are consumed by rage and cannot concentrate.

Energy Projection and forcefields

They wouldn't have great forcefields but their energy blasts would be corrosive and melt through most material.

Rage Plasma

Just like the comics, all of a red lanterns fluid is converted into burning plasma napalm, their vomit, blood tears etc. This burns through anything and if contacts a living create makes them filled with rage for a period of time.

Self Regeneration

These guys should be able to go berserker and not have as many consequences, while they have their ring and filled with rage nothing can really kill them except for huge damage, losing their ring, loss of ring power etc. Kinda like wolverine.

Enhanced Strength, stamina and durability

The ring makes a killer that can rip through metal, it would just increase literally everything, which makes it harder to remove.

The Red Lantern Rule

The more anger a red lantern feels the more powerful they become, eventually they reach a point where they will start to burn from the inside out and erupt into a huge explosion, very rarely will a lantern successfully survive this process.

Violet Lanterns

I hate that these guys keep getting snubbed and reduced to basic filler lanterns in the comics, they should be a mixture of offence and defense and shouldn't have such a focus on support. Except for whatever made them feel the love that gave them the ring, which shouldn't just be romantic love, there's all different types of love.

Ability to create hard light constructs

These would be the second best out of all the lantern corps, just behind the green lanterns and would have a more crystal or rocky look this would make them need less concentration to create stronger constructs. They would also be able to target what someone loves most and create a construct of it.

Crystallization/ Crystal Manipulation

Literally just like in the comics, they should be able to crystalize someone and/or create and manipulate crystals with their rings.

Mind control

Prolonged exposure with these crystals or the lanterns constructs will make someone feel love and eventually become infatuated with the user. They would then be charmed and under their control.

Minor Teleportation

Only to the object or creature/s that they love currently and within a certain range.

Minor Tracking

Again, only being able to track the object or creature/s that they currently love, or whether love was in jeopardy.

Minor Telepathy/Mind Control

They should also be able to see what someone else loves the most and what they desire, and use it to make the target fall in love with the user

Illusions

Through crystals and light, they should be able to create semi-real illusions and projections.

Boosting

The more love they feel for and from someone or something the stronger both of them are, thus boosted.

Green Lantern Headcannon

Oa (home of the Green Lanterns) is the greatest source of willpower in the galaxy, it is home to millions of Green Lanterns who range from every corner of the universe, however the Green Lanterns have a job to do and Oa reflects that.

Over Oa buildings tower over the planets surface each with unique architecture reflecting their owners, the buildings are separated into apartments, each lantern can personalise their apartments as a special home away from home, it has the latest tachnology built in and constantly updated as well as necessities for survival.

The Green Lantern Power Battery is located on the surface of Oa, under constant and heavy guard the the Guardians hold council nearby to lessen the risk of anything happening to the lantern, after all who would mess with the Green Lanterns.

[dukeofhell]

Yellow Lantern Headcannon

The Yellow Lanterns have had many planets (Qward, Korugar etc.) however what was held similar across all of their worlds was their militaristic nature. Sinestro ruled his Corp with an iron fist, normally the Yellow Lanterns were nomadic travelling across worlds to matain their power in the area.

All members of the Sinestro Corp, dwell in large communal tents that hold multiple lanterns at a time, this eliminates the ‘comforts of home’ and creates a more appropriate atmosphere for weilders of the yellow rings of fear.

The Yellow Power Battery is held on Sinetro’s chariot, a luxurious palace carried by lesser lanterns to honour their leader Sinestro, often the Yellow Lanterns will take slaves (unfortunate victims enslaved by their own fears) to pull their cities on wheels across whole planets.

[dukeofhell]

Red Lantern Headcannon

The home of the Red Lanterns (Yasmault) truly reflects a planet filled with rage, the planet is a wasteland, huge pits of pure liquified rage, that burn like lava cover huge expanses of the planet, wreckages, debris and rubble litter the rocky ground, remnants of battles won.

The Red Lanterns often dwell inside those wreckages, however, only the most powerful are allowed to call those home, fights about living arrangements are common on Yasmault as the more rage you feel the more powerful you are.

The Red Power Battery, sits on the planet’s surface, shrouded by dishevelled boulders and stones, no one dares to risk their lives to touch the lantern as no one survives an encounter with a Red Lantern.

[dukeofhell]

Violet Lantern Headcannon

Zamaron (Home of the Violet Lanterns) is a place of passion and love, the planet is filled with caverns, ravines and mountains, the sky is always shades of pink and the earth shades of blue.

Violet crystals of various sizes are scattered around the planet, they are said to represent the love shared by living creatures, the more love the more crystals grow. Each violet lantern has their own ‘castle’ built out of the crystals, each containing treasured items, fond memories and even lavish leisure’s such as hot-tubs, walk-in robes and fully equipped training areas.

All of the palaces pale in comparison to the Violet Palace home of the Violet Lantern Battery, all new recruits must live inside the palace until they can create their own castles out of love.

[dukeofhell]

Blue Lantern Headcannon

On Elipis (The Blue Lantern’s planet) it is a paradise, the sky to always clear and blue dotted with pale white clouds, there is streams of clear fresh water and the grass is always green.

The blue lanterns are very faithful, thus live simplistically each lantern often lives in huts scattered around the rich landscape, the huts are made from colourful clays with thatch roofs, with windows that have the best views. Blue lanterns love to give hope to every living creature, so they like to farm (peacefully) endangered species and plants from all areas of the galaxy.

The blue lantern is situated over the large cliff face that overlooks all of Elipis, the cliff face is the source of the crystal clear water that flows all over the planet, huge waterfalls line the rim and thunder down the walls of stone.

Every morning blue lanterns meditate around the various river beds that connect around their homes. They say if you sit by the river long enough, you can feel the hope running through the river.

[dukeofhell]

Orange Lantern Headcannon

On the Orange Lantern’s planet (Okaara) there is nothing living left on the planet besides larfleeze himself. The skies are stained orange due to the years of exposure to different aircrafts falling victim to the power of greed.

The planet is just a desert, the sands burnt tan as the years of rust, sun and blood take their toll on the landscape no creature would ever be able to live there again, except one. Larfleeze lives at the heart of the planet, in a huge cave system that is filled to the brim with everything that he has stolen throughout the years, all of the systems are connected to the heart which is where all the batteries are located.

Larfleeze sleeps on a pile of trash literally, he is constantly frightened that if he doesn’t someone will steal his stuff, his precious and his light.

[dukeofhell]

Indigo Tribe Headcannon

On the Indigo Tribes home planet (NOK) there would be a mysterious aura, a permanent haze of indigo would cover the land and sky while the water was a dark shade of blue.

The indigo lantern is hidden inside a cave in the highest point of the planet, the lantern is placed in a stream so all the water on NOK has the essence of compassion. As a part of ‘training’ for the indigo corps, to encourage compassion the ring bearer would have to plant a tree and grow it,the tree literally grows from the compassion water, this shows you have great compassion for all different creatures.

After the tree is grown it becomes a home to that ring bearer, thus Nok is very naturally orientated, the local people often live in primitive huts or tents to avoid harming their environment so there is limited technology outside the lantern rings. The roads are gravel and actual lanterns hang to give light (basically it’s like if Avatar and Neverland had a baby)

Lantern Corp Headcannon

Okay, so I have this headcannon that each Lantern Corp on their ‘main place of operations’ have some sort of living quarters.

Green Lanterns:

Normally since If you are a green lantern you spend a lot of time off world so I think on Oa there are tall skyscraper building with little apartments for each member of the Corp to live/stay in, when they moved to Mogo they stayed in living quarters inside the base.

Star Sapphires:

Star Sapphires normally live in their main building but each have their own huge room with a double bed so the main building is huge much similar to a palace than any sort of house.

Sinestro Corp:

Since Sinestro ruled his Corp in a military fashion they normally have very strict living quarters containing only the necessities and they must remain clean and tidy since it is usually any lantern to any bed.

Orange Agents:

Larfleeze is the only orange agent left, but when his Corp was still alive they all lived in seperate territories sleeping on whatever treasures they managed to take and keeping other members of their Corp away,

Blue Lanterns:

Each blue lantern has simplistic cabins containing nothing but a simple bed and even the building itself is simplistic maybe a couple of poles and a roof and they may include a garden or too just to give nature some hope.

Indigo Tribe:

On NOK each lantern has their own ‘tree house’ that they grow themselves from their own compassion so the planet is filled with tree houses.

Red Lanterns:

The red lanterns, since they are filled with rage and most lack actual logic sleep on the ground and let their rage fuel them Day and night some might not sleep at all and some may only have a bed.
