Noah James

== Background ==
Noah James is the father of Atlanta and Jasper James. Atlanta is the Big Team member Verve. Being a nurse keeps him very busy, and he often depends on Atlanta to take care of Jasper. He’s a caring father, just busy. 
Even though Demeter James, his wife, was missing for several years, he still wore his wedding ring.
However, he dislikes superpowers because he sees the devastation they can cause to people at his job. Because of this, Atlanta did not tell him about being on Big Team or that she had superpowers at all. One major reason Verve had for keeping her identity secret from everyone was that she was afraid her father would kick her out if he found out.
== Personality ==
In season 3 and until Demeter and Hikari’s return, he was a tired single dad without proper boundaries about what is okay to rant about to your teenage daughter, no matter how mature she is. 
Overall, Noah has a lot of compassion and is very tired of seeing people come through his emergency room with injuries caused by superpowers. He’s a good dad, just scared for the safety of his children. 
After Demeter and Hikari returned, there were two more adults to help with the responsibility that rested on him, and regained a sense of joy. This came out in him going full dad mode, especially after moving to the house from the apartment. He took up grilling and woodworking with Jasper. When the family needed to redo the front bedroom for Hikari and make Hikari’s former bedroom into a nursery, he was in his element. 
== Season 3 ==
He found out that Atlanta is the superhero Verve during a fight with Gambite at the hospital he worked at during S3E134: When the Last Star Dies. After this event, he was planning on moving to New York in order to stop Atlanta from being a superhero, despite her telling him she wouldn’t go with him. 
During the Finale Prologue: School’s Out, he interrupted a ritual being cast by Bella and Old Jackal to send the heroes into Casper’s mind, outing Verve to those present. He got sucked in as well, and witnessed the team defeat the Abyss and free Casper. When Verve had to send a message to the past to prevent Yamato from destroying City Hall, the Molecyon Hall of Fame, the Big Team Base, and the mall with the Watchtower’s laser, he encouraged her and enabled her to succeed. Afterwords, he promised not to move to New York if she can prove to him that she isn’t ashamed of what she is by revealing her identity to at least the team. 
== Seasons 4 and 5 ==
Noah tried to become more supportive, or at least not against, Atlanta’s heroing as the seasons progressed. There wasn’t much progress until he joined a support group run by Helen Welles for non-powered relatives of powered individuals. He claimed that he was there for his nephew so that he didn’t out Atlanta as Verve. The level that she didn’t trust him really seemed to click when he found out that Atlanta was dating Boon from a gossip magazine that Helen gave him, where the two were kissing on the cover, and he took steps to make her feel like they could trust each other again. 
When Demeter and Hikari returned from being trapped in Reaper One’s Pockets, he had a lot more adult support and also found out that his wife both had superpowers and used to be a teen hero herself. Being able to talk with the two of them helped. He still doesn’t like the danger that Atlanta puts herself in, but accepts it and supports it as best he can (even when she gets stabbed and has to come to his emergency room). 
After the season 5 finale, Noah took over running the support group for non-powered relatives of powered people from Helen, since she gained superpowers from Cambria’s ritual. Category:Characters
