This is when your hero decides that, for whatever reason, they are going to create an additional superhero alter ego besides the one they already have. This is often, but not always, due to necessity or due to a superhero mid-life crisis. This new identity is often less well known than their original one. Maybe it's to do things that their alter ego can't be seen doing. Maybe they dress up as another preexisting hero to cash in on their reputation. Sometimes it's just a stylistic name change. Or sometimes their alter ego is being hunted by cops and they need to crimefight while getting their name cleared. Whatever the reason, the hero now has another crime fighting alter ego in addition to their original one. Related to Legacy Character, Becoming the Mask, Secret Identity, Secret-Identity Identity, Multilayer Façade. |

Hawkeye: Clint Barton usually goes by Hawkeye, but he's also been Ronin (the second Ronin in the Avengers) and Goliath. Plus he tried out the Captain America identity after the death of the original, but decided it wasn't for him. In Mighty Avengers (2013), a powerful guy joins the team with the first disguise he found, a ridiculously colored "Spider Hero" outfit. When he clarifies he'd be happy to wear anything hiding his identity but better looking, Luke Cage hands him a box of old Clint Barton's stuff, so the reader still doesn't know his first identity, but he becomes the new Ronin. He is eventually revealed to be Blade. |

During the X-Men storyline "The Twelve", Apocalypse has a new Horseman, Death, who fights and kills Wolverine. Death turns out to be the real, albeit brainwashed, Wolverine. The Wolverine he killed was a Skrull imposter. Other characters with existing identities who became Horsemen include Angel (Death, afterwards he'd adopt the name Archangel), Plague of the Morlocks (Pestilence), Caliban (Death and Pestilence at different times), Hulk (War), Deathbird (War), Gazer (War), Sunfire (Famine), Polaris (Pestilence), Gambit (Death), and Psylocke (Death). |

In Season 4 of Arrow Oliver assumes his third identity. First he was known as "The Hood", then "The Arrow", and now the "Green Arrow". Each had his own costume and the public even thinks the Arrow is dead, not knowing that all these 3 were the same man. Eventually he does reveal himself as all three identities. | |

Miraculous Ladybug: A villainous example is present in the episode "The Collector", where Gabriel Agreste, revealed to be Hawk Moth, akumatizes himself and turns into The Collector to throw off any suspicion that he is the Big Bad. This also goes for some of the other villains — some characters who have been akumatized before get turned into new villains. For example, Lila has been Volpina before and later becomes Chameleon, Kagami has been Riposte before and later becomes Oni-chan and Lies, Sabrina has been Vanisher before and later becomes Miraculer, and Luka has been Silencer before and later becomes Truth. A heroic example almost happens in "Style Queen" when Ladybug goes to give Alya the Bee Miraculous. Alya had previously wielded the Fox Miraculous as Rena Rouge. Subverted when Alya is struck by Style Queen and becomes a statue. The Miraculous then falls into Chloe's hands... Alya would be able to play the trope straight in the season four episode "Hack-San" when Marinette entrusts her to be the temporary Ladybug Scarabella while the former is out of Paris. Put the above examples together, and you get Queen Wasp. Chloe has already been akumatized into being Antibug, but when she's akumatized while using the Bee Miraculous, she goes from Queen Bee to Queen Wasp. And in the Season 3 finale, she gets a third villainous identity as "Miracle Queen", once again akumatized while as Queen Bee. And then in season 4 she once again gets akumatized into "Queen Banana". Similarly to Queen Wasp, in the Season 2 finale, Alya and Nino are akumatized while using the Fox and Turtle Miraculouses, respectively, and are turned into Evil Knockoff versions of their superhero selves rather than their former villainous selves, Lady Wifi and Bubbler. Chloe's half-sister Zoe Lee, who is the second Bee Hero Vesperia would get a second hero form in the season 5 two-part special "The Kwamis' Choice" when she becomes the temporary Cat Hero Kitty Noire. Ladybug and Cat Noir themselves get a few of these. In the episode "Reflekdoll", they swapped Miraculouses, becoming Lady Noir and Mister Bug. In "Desperada", Ladybug entrusts Adrien with the Snake Miraculous, becoming Aspik. Adrien eventually turns this down, believing he's not the one for the job and that Cat Noir is necessary to take down the titular villain, having tried and failed over 25,000 times. In "Kwamibuster", Marinette uses the Mouse Miraculous to become Multimouse, and some of her alternate selves use another Miraculous on top of that. She later allows Cat Noir to see that they're the same person (using a Mirage to make it look like Ladybug and Multimouse/Marinette are present at the same time), simply to throw him off the scent of her normal secret identity. In "Kuro Neko", Adrien uses an alternate transformation with the Cat Miraculous to become Cat Walker. |

Manager (Seraviel): Taylor uses her power-managing abilities to create several alternate identities for herself. Her power-stealing identity, which uses an androgynous outfit made of a dress suit of Danny's and a veil, is dubbed Slenderman by PHO after a leaked video of her visiting and depowering Skidmark and Squealer hits the web. She later runs with that, using tinkertech and a careful selection of powers to play up the theme. Her first attempt at a crime-fighter persona, using tinkertech Power Armor, gets abandoned before she even comes up with a name after Victor snipes her in the shoulder and drops a building on her. Apparition, an Undersider with shadow-movement powers. She uses a blonde wig and padding to separate this from her other personas, and later uses her cloning power to stage a fight between Appartition and Slenderman to further confuse the issue. Arsenal, a rogue tinker with Power Armor and a deep male voice. She creates this persona both to have a crime-fighting option and to get access to better supplies through PRT affiliation. |

Supergirl: Before her existence was revealed to the world in "The Unknown Supergirl", Pre-Crisis Supergirl sometimes operated as the heroine "Mighty Maid". Supergirl (2005): Supergirl briefly took up the "Flamebird" moniker during the "Candor" storyline, alongside Power Girl as Nightwing. In Adventure Comics #350, Miss Terious and Sir Prize replaced Superboy and Supergirl as members of the Legion of Super-Heroes when the Earth was covered in Kryptonite, eventually revealing themselves to be Dream Girl and Star Boy, who had previously left the team. In "The Unknown Legionnaire", Supergirl became "Unknown Boy" as posing as a nameless Legion's ally. |

Maris Stella: When Sonya is Akumatized into Princess Nemo, she locks herself in a tower. Maris speculates that Princess Nemo will allow her crush Fletcher into the tower, so she asks Tenechat to lend Fletcher his Miraculous. Unbeknownst to Maris, Fletcher is Tenechat, leading to him creating a brand new identity, though admittedly less secret, in an effort to get Princess Nemo to allow him into the tower. The second time Sonya is Akumatized, instead of becoming Princess Nemo again, she becomes Bubblegum Witch. When Naota's brother Daichi is Akumatized and attempts to lock him up for his own protection, Naota uses time travel so he can be in two places at once, both as his normal identity Maris Stella and as the Goat Hero, Heiðrún. After the Ladybug Miraculous is stolen, Naota temporarily wields the Dog Miraculous and becomes Corgiranian. When they need to fight Quartz Chameleon in order to save Maris Stella and Tenechat, Erica, Sonya, and Arc are all given new super forms. Erica becomes Freesia Mage instead of Thorn Reaper, Sonya becomes Chaos Angel instead of either of her older forms, and Arc becomes Terrapin instead of Sharkbite. After losing the Butterfly Miraculous, Yukari ends up borrowing the Ladybug Miraculous to become Akaribug when the new Butterfly villain akumatizes Lita. |

The streets label her second alias "The Blackbird". In season 3, she uses this alternate identity to join the resistance against the ASA, since the ASA is aware of her being Thunder. | |

The Boys: The superhero known as Stormfront went by the name Liberty back in The '70s and operated out of North Carolina, where she murdered black people for kicks. Vought International repackaged her and moved her around to avoid her violent racist outbursts being exposed, which Hughie likens to being the superhero version of a Pedophile Priest being shuffled between parishes. After discovering her past, the Boys speculate that this has happened multiple times with her. | |

Colonel James Rhodes takes on the superhero moniker of War Machine in Iron Man 2 when Tony Stark gives him an Iron Man suit. In Iron Man 3, in the face of terrorist attacks by the Mandarin, the US government decides to bolster public morale by rebranding Rhodey as the "Iron Patriot", complete with repainting his armor in a red-white-and-blue color scheme. Rhodey shows personal dislike for the name, and he quickly ditches the moniker after the movie, sticking solely to the War Machine moniker in all of his subsequent movie appearances. | |

A Shadow of the Titans: After ending up in the Teen Titans world, circumstances lead to Jade (now changed into a Shadowkhan again) being mistaken for a villain and taken in by the HIVE; playing along, she takes the identity of a Kung-Fu Wizard called Zhu Chan. Later on, after her internship with the Joker goes south (as in, he gives her a Glasgow Grin and she undergoes an Emergency Transformation to survive), she goes into hiding in Gotham out of concern that the HIVE will terminate her for failure. To enable this, she changes into a new costume, complete with a plague doctor mask, and starts calling herself Karasu. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Colonel James Rhodes takes on the superhero moniker of War Machine in Iron Man 2 when Tony Stark gives him an Iron Man suit. In Iron Man 3, in the face of terrorist attacks by the Mandarin, the US government decides to bolster public morale by rebranding Rhodey as the "Iron Patriot", complete with repainting his armor in a red-white-and-blue color scheme. Rhodey shows personal dislike for the name, and he quickly ditches the moniker after the movie, sticking solely to the War Machine moniker in all of his subsequent movie appearances. A post on the Russos' Instagram confirmed that post-Civil-War, Captain America ditched the shield and rebranded as the vigilante Nomad for Avengers: Infinity War. Black Widow, Falcon, and Scarlet Witch held onto their monikers but the entire group became known as the "Secret Avengers". Black Panther (2018) had Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier use the nickname "White Wolf", a reference to a comic-book ally of the Black Panther. After his absence in Avengers: Infinity War, Hawkeye returned in Avengers: Endgame as "Ronin", with a new sword and haircut. Spider-Man: Far From Home features an unintentional one — Spider-Man, while wearing Fury's stealth suit, is dubbed "Night Monkey" by Ned, who's trying to keep his girlfriend from realizing that it is in fact Spider-Man in order to preserve his friend Peter's Secret Identity. The press, hearing Ned and Betty call out to "Night Monkey" for help, refer to him by that name in their reports. |

Happens to a few characters in the Disney Ducks Comic Universe: Donald, Fethry and Daisy are all superheroes as the Duck Avenger (Paperinik), the Red Bat and Super Daisy (Paperinika) respectively, and also work as spies for Scrooge's Private Intelligence Agency. Being a continuation of the "classic" Paperinik stories, Paperinik New Adventures already has his two Paperinik and PIA agent identities... Then a Double Duck story confirms that it's set in the same universe as Paperinik New Adventures, adding a third identity. This actually got Foreshadowed in an omake where he accidentally took his superspy tuxedo (Double Duck) instead of his superhero costume (Paperinik), and when Paperinik's Extransformer Shield was spotted in a Double Duck story. |

In CUTTING THE STRINGS, Max (the Horse hero Pegasus) and Kim (the Monkey hero King Monkey) are given the Ladybug and Black Cat Miraculous respectively after Marinette and Adrien are captured by an akumatized Lila. They use them to become Bug-a-Boy and Jaguaro. In SUN'S WRATH, after Adrien is akumatized, Nino (the Turtle hero Carapace) is given the Black Cat Miraculous to become Calico. In CAGED, Juleka (the Tiger hero Purple Tigress) becomes the Black Cat Ahkari when Adrien cannot transform while held in Cage-Master's cage. |

Hank Pym, the original Ant-Man, has a habit of juggling multiple superhero personae (i.e. Giant-Man, Wasp, Goliath, Ant Man, Yellowjacket and even, at one point, his real name). Some continuities explain this as him having identity issues. | |

Batman: Subverted. Bruce Wayne took on the identity of "Starman" for an issue in 1951 when a dose of Fear Gas (from Professor Milo this time) made him terrified of bats. In the Post-Zero Hour: Crisis in Time! version of the story from Starman, it was Doctor Mid-Nite. The Supergirl-Batgirl Plot: Since Batman does not yet know Batgirl's real identity, Batmite tries to trick him into believing Batgirl is Catwoman's second secret identity. Nonetheless, Batman is not fooled because both women have different eye colors. Nightwing once adopted the alternate superhero identity of the Target when it became inadvisable for him to operate as Nightwing. He'd previously had the identity of Robin. Before being forced to take up a new superhero identity and adopting Red Robin on a more consistent basis Tim Drake temporarily used the alias in the pages of Robin (1993) after suffering burns to the back of his head and neck. He also used "The Spectacular Sunbird" for about a day when he realized that in his hurry he'd forgotten to remove a wig he was using before changing into most of the Robin costume. |

Kamen Rider has Transformation Trinkets pass hands quite a bit (at least in shows where they're purely mechanical devices with no mystical abilities), and characters will often assume another Rider's identity for one off-occasions like The Movie. Kamen Rider Ryuki: In the Alternate Universe movie 13 Riders, protagonist Shinji Kido loses the Ryuki powers and receives the Knight powers from a dying Ren Akiyama just in time to face off against all the other Riders. Kamen Rider Double has probably the purest example of this trope, where the title character is normally a Fusion Dance between detective Shotaro Hidari and his brainy partner Philip. Starting with The Movie, Shotaro has the "side identity" of Kamen Rider Joker, which he uses in situations where Philip isn't available; likewise, the spin-off novel has Philip becoming Kamen Rider Cyclone solo because Shotaro is laid up with a cold. These are mostly used in emergency situations, since Double is literally as powerful as both of them combined. |

In The King of Fighters XIV, the King of Dinosaurs is actually Tizoc from Garou: Mark of the Wolves, who was previously a member of the KOF 2003 and XI rosters; after getting beaten by Nelson he wanted a grudge match, but since that doesn't suit his Face persona he adopted a more villainous identity. Of course, he's not very good at it: his character profile is still mostly identical to Tizoc's, he still goes on For Great Justice rants during his win quotes, and Terry Bogard sees through the disguise instantly and engages the KoD in a friendly conversation for a few moments before he realizes what he's saying and comically tries to reassume his shattered bad guy identity. | |

Superman: In "Luthor Unleashed", Lex builds an armor and creates another super-villain identity called the Mystery Marauder to commit crimes across the world of Lexor. Back in the early '90s, Superman comic books had a super-antihero named Gangbuster. After a year, he turned out to be Superman, with a trauma-induced separate personality. In the Silver Age, Superman would sometimes shrink himself and Jimmy Olsen to visit the bottle-city of Kandor.note A former Kryptonian city, inhabited by former Kryptonians, that had been shrunk by Brainiac 5. There, they would sometimes adopt the personas of Nightwingnote the names were based on Kryptonian mythology and this Nightwing predated the more famous Dick Grayson version by a couple of decades; it was and may still be canon that Dick chose the moniker at least partially because of the Kryptonian hero (Superman) and Flamebird (Jimmy), a pair of costumed heroes along the lines of Batman and Robin (Superman lost his superpowers while in the city but was still muscular and athletic, and he had some gadgets to help him out as well). Worlds Finest 1941 #119 revolves around a superhero named "Tigerman", who turns out to be...Superman. |

Miraculous City: Thanks to a freak event causing everyone in Paris to be able to use Miraculous powers, this tends to happen to those who already had a Miraculous but now have indefinite access to their respective abilities. In chapter 2, when a group of expelled bullies invades and attack Dupont, Marinette uses her internal Ladybug powers to make a new appearance, which is publicly named "Maribug". In chapter 5, Sabrina (already the dog hero Miss Hound) transforms into Stray Hound when dragged by Chloe into performing heroics for the latter's own desire for fame. In chapter 6, when the same group of bullies turn villains attack a fair Adrien and Marinette are attending, he transforms into Cat Walker to help Maribug and Lady Beetle. In chapter 7, it's revealed by a flashback that Luka used an unnamed snake transformation as a precaution when signing a record deal with Bob Roth, which lets him turn back time after signing and learning how skewed the contract was in the fine print. In chapter 12, this new identity is named Snake Charmer while his sister Juleka has another Tiger form named Goth Tiger. |

Both of the main protagonists of Renegades take up alternate identities to suit their needs, which forms a key part of the series. Nova, normally the villainous Nightmare, becomes the heroic Insomnia to spy on the Renegades, and has to rely on her Fights Like a Normal skills to compensate for supposedly only having a non-combat power. Adrian, normally the heroic Sketch, turns into the vigilante Sentinel to investigate his mother’s murder, and uses his art power and tattoos to give himself Combo Platter Powers. Both of them use face-concealing masks in their non-Renegade identities to keep up the charade. | |

Arrowverse: In Season 4 of Arrow Oliver assumes his third identity. First he was known as "The Hood", then "The Arrow", and now the "Green Arrow". Each had his own costume and the public even thinks the Arrow is dead, not knowing that all these 3 were the same man. Eventually he does reveal himself as all three identities. In Crisis on Infinite Earths (2019), Oliver briefly assumes a fourth and final identity: The Spectre. Sara Lance went from being The Canary/Black Canary to White Canary after joining the Legends, although she's mostly just called Sara. Black Lightning (2018): Aside from being the heroine Thunder, Anissa Pierce also sneaks around at night in dark hoods, brutally beating up criminals and stealing money for those in need. The streets label her second alias "The Blackbird". In season 3, she uses this alternate identity to join the resistance against the ASA, since the ASA is aware of her being Thunder. |

Before being forced to take up a new superhero identity and adopting Red Robin on a more consistent basis Tim Drake temporarily used the alias in the pages of Robin (1993) after suffering burns to the back of his head and neck. He also used "The Spectacular Sunbird" for about a day when he realized that in his hurry he'd forgotten to remove a wig he was using before changing into most of the Robin costume. | |

In a non-superhero example, Miss Level the witch from A Hat Full of Sky used to perform in circuses as Topsy & Tipsy, a mind-reading act. This was made much easier because Miss Level's "superpower" isn't that she's psychic, but that she's one person with two bodies. | |

In the Wild Cards series, the superhero Black Shadow killed a couple of criminals early in his career. Sought by the police, he simply adopts various other superheroic identities. He eventually starts thinking of himself as "Shad" just so he has an internal identity that he can cling to, because things have gotten so confusing. | |

Moon Knight himself has been known to operate as both Moon Knight (the violent and vengeful gadgeteer vigilante) and Mr. Knight (a violent intellectual sarcastic vigilante). Inverted by the same character, who has multiple civilian identities. As cabby Jake Locksley, he can keep an ear to the ground, and as Steven Grant he's often invited to high-society functions. His actual birth name is Marc Spector. Interestingly, he actually suffers from DID (aka "multiple personality disorder") and his identities are his alter egos. |

GURPS Robin Hood included a GURPS Supers version who maintained two identites. Known as a stolid and reliable energy-blaster for International Super Teams under the name Lightbolt, he's secretly also the killer vigilante Librum, dedicated to wiping out the city's drug dealers. He's managed to keep some aspects of his powers secret from IST, so they don't realise that Lightbolt's bright blue pulses of plasma and Librum's deep purple energy arrows are actually the same thing. | |

Being a continuation of the "classic" Paperinik stories, Paperinik New Adventures already has his two Paperinik and PIA agent identities... Then a Double Duck story confirms that it's set in the same universe as Paperinik New Adventures, adding a third identity. This actually got Foreshadowed in an omake where he accidentally took his superspy tuxedo (Double Duck) instead of his superhero costume (Paperinik), and when Paperinik's Extransformer Shield was spotted in a Double Duck story. | |

Not exactly super, but Char from Mobile Suit Gundam is actually the secret identity of Casval Rem Deikun, who seeks revenge on his father's murderers by posing in their army as his dead friend Char. Then, in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, he takes a second secret identity as Quattro Bajeena. This one is completely ineffective thanks to his Paper-Thin Disguise, and by mid-series his identity as Char is essentially an Open Secret amongst the members of the AEUG and the enemy forces' leaders. He ends up revealing his true identity to the world at his publicly-broadcast address to the Federation assembly at Dakar. | |

Brennus: It's revealed that The Dark likes to do this in his spare time, by creating entirely new super-villain personas and using them to do mercenary work. Why? Because people tend to run away screaming when the world's greatest super-villain shows up, and he needs to keep his skills sharp through practice. It becomes useful when his secret son need his help, and neither of them want people to find out about their relationship. | |

Taylor Varga: Several of Taylor's cape allies create new super-identities for themselves as members or associates of the Family. Amy and Lisa use Varga-themed biosuits to disguise themselves as Ianthe and Metis, "cousins" to the Saurial/Raptaur/Kaiju branch of the Family. This also allows them to disguise Amy's biokinetic powers as a Family technique (especially since the biosuits allow Lisa to do some basic biokinetic tricks). Missy uses an old cloak and some new tricks for her Space Master powers (learnt after exposure to the Alien Geometries that are a Family staple) to disguise herself as a cloak with nothing visible inside it but with powers similar to those of Vista, creatively named "Cloak". After defecting from the Merchants, Linda (formerly Squealer/Sherrel) takes advantage of having access to better materials to pretend to be an entirely unrelated Tinker with a similar specialty to Squealer. This is further supported by Amy giving her a basic Brute/Changer package. And then there is of course Taylor herself, who disguises the full scope of her shapeshifting by pretending to be multiple different reptilian capes with similar powersets. |

In Dragon Ball Z, Gohan becomes a crime fighting superhero. At first, he just turns into a Super Saiyan and is referred to as "the Golden Warrior". Later, Bulma builds him a tokusatsu hero outfit and he adopts a second moniker, "The Great Saiyaman". Eventually during the 25th Tenkaichi Budokai, he ultimately reveals to the other characters that he's both. | |

Spider-Man did this as an entire group of heroes. When Spider-Man was accused of murder during the Identity Crisis storyline, he temporarily adopted four other costumed identities to allow him to continue fighting crime without appearing as Spider-Man: Hornet, Prodigy, Ricochet and Dusk. By having 4 different identities (2 of which he used to go undercover as a "supervillain"), Spidey could freely discard any one that got compromised while continuing to act as a hero. Eventually these personae were adopted by other heroes, creating The Slingers. Then there’s the times when Peter has had to hero without his usual webs, donning makeshift costumes and identities like “The Bombastic Bag Man�. |

Kamen Rider Double has probably the purest example of this trope, where the title character is normally a Fusion Dance between detective Shotaro Hidari and his brainy partner Philip. Starting with The Movie, Shotaro has the "side identity" of Kamen Rider Joker, which he uses in situations where Philip isn't available; likewise, the spin-off novel has Philip becoming Kamen Rider Cyclone solo because Shotaro is laid up with a cold. These are mostly used in emergency situations, since Double is literally as powerful as both of them combined. | |

In the action figures based on the 80s TMNT cartoon, they released a Super Mike action figure who was basically a Captain America Expy persona that Michelangelo adopted. Super Mike also had a sidekick parrot named Crackers. They also made a Batman Expy identity for Don, known as Super Don. The Super Don action figure is based on the Dark Turtle Example below. | |
