List of Arrow characters
Adrian Chase (portrayed by Josh Segarra; main: season 5; guest: season 6) is Star City's new district attorney in season five who helps Mayor Oliver Queen clean up the streets through the justice system. He is also Prometheus, a ruthless and mysterious hooded archer who kills, and has a grudge against Oliver Queen / Green Arrow, being the main antagonist of season five. He wears a black uniform almost identical to Oliver's first garb. Prometheus is aware of Oliver's identity, having deduced that the Green Arrow was the presumably-deceased Hood/Arrow, and begins a killing spree of innocent people with arrows and shurikens made from Oliver's discarded bolts. Prometheus has no tolerance for anyone else targeting Green Arrow and kills Tobias Church when the crime lord ignores a warning to leave Green Arrow alone. He also targets those close to Oliver by framing Quentin Lance, manipulating Evelyn Sharp into betraying Oliver, staging Billy Malone in his uniform to be killed by Oliver, and sends Black Siren (Laurel Lance's Earth-2 doppelgänger) to mess with Oliver. Prometheus is actually Simon Morrison, the illegitimate son of Justin Claybourne, a pharmaceutical owner on the List who was killed during Oliver's first year as The Hood. Seeking revenge against Oliver, he was taught by Talia al Ghul to gain a skillset to match Oliver's. However, Simon was never close to his father who realized that Simon is psychopathic and wanted nothing to do with him. After Adrian and his allies kidnap Oliver's friends and family to Lian Yu, Oliver's party ultimately beats Adrian's. Unwilling to accept defeat, Adrian kills himself, detonating the bombs throughout the island in an attempt to kill Oliver's loved ones, successfully killing Samantha Clayton.
