Ha'Wea is a member of the Xebelian army who became Aqualad's friend during his first visit to Xebel.

History

Having joined the military shortly after finishing his education, Ha'Wea was stationed at a City Guard post when Jackson Hyde tried to enter with his Mecha pod. After initially wanting to report him, he quickly became interested in the intruder, once he mentioned he was from the surface. He then offered to show Jackson around the city. During that tour the two of them quickly became close. Arriving at a statue of the poet Lokua Ha'Wea recited one of his favorite poems to Jackson. Then the city was attacked by the Trench. Ha'Wea returned to his military unit and introduced Jackson as support because of his aquakinetic abilities. Together they fought against the Trench forces until the two had to retreat with the Mech. Inside they formed a plan to use a sonic signal to lure the attackers together and then taking them out with one blast from Jackson's electrokinesis.

Jackson gives Ha'Wea a proper good-bye

After the battle Ha'Wea quickly brought Jackson to the city's border before anyone could start asking questions. There Jackson initally left Ha'Wea awkwardly, before being encouraged by the Mech's AI to tell him good bye with a kiss. Ha'Wea then gave him a communicator to stay in contact and left.

Ha'Wea later asked Jackson to visit each other's homes for their next date. When he introduced him to his family Jackson was initially uncertain about putting a label on their relationship, but Ha'Wea assured him that he was fine with them being called "boyfriends". Later Jackson took Ha'Wea to his original hometown in New Mexico and opened up about his childhood.
