History Characters / CassetteBeasts

* NeverMyFault: His last troupe fell apart after [[OffingTheOffspring he killed his son Mordread]]. Aleph speaks of that incident as, "[[{{Understatement}} my old band got a tad dysfunctional...]]".

* SecretArt: Paint Swipe, a strong Plant-type melee attack that only consumes 1 AP, but has low priority and requires the user to have an elemental coating active. Upon landing this attack, the user's elemental coating is transferred to the target.

* ProductionThrowback: Jumpkin is based on Gordon, one of the companions from ''VideoGame/Lenna'sInception''.

* HumanoidAbomination: Out of all the Archangels, he is the most humanoid, even being rendered as a regular sprite unlike the others which have [[NonStandardCharacterDesign more exotic art styles]]. The giveaway of his true nature is his mirror head.

* LogicalWeakness: His triangular head is a portal through which he can send anyone anywhere, even other dimensions. He can't send himself, however, because he can't fit his entire body through his own head, leaving him stranded in New Wirral. He used to get around this by travelling in The Amber Lodge.

* FauxAffablyEvil: Aleph speaks in a polite and gentlemanly tone, but he is a multi-dimensional warmonger who makes it a priority to invade the heroes' worlds after they refuse his deal because [[{{Sadist}} they will be the most fun for him to break]].

* NeverMyFault: His last troupe fell apart after [[OffingTheOffspring he killed his son Mordread]]. Aleph speaks of that incident as, "[[{{Understatement}} my old band got a tad dysfunctional]] and had to split".

* SeenItAll: He admits during the final battle that he has this viewpoint, being a dimension-hopping and ageless abomination. [[WowingCthulhu He is genuinely surprised and impressed with the heroes' newfound fusion powers]], going as far as trying it himself with his new team.

* RankScalesWithAsskicking: The bestiary claims there seems to be a military hierarchy among the Binvader line, and that Binterlopers hold higher rank and have been seen giving orders to Binvaders. Needless to say, with higher stats and a wider movepool, Binterloper does kick more ass.

* {{Fangirl}}

* JumpedAtTheCall: She's ''wildly'' enthusiastic about turning into monsters and doing heroics.
** MissedTheCall: However, the player character has already taken care of the main conflict by the time Frankie arrives on New Wirral.

A new ranger recruit that only shows up after defeating Ianthe and becoming a Ranger Captain. The player character becomes her mentor and gives her her first cassette tape.

* GateGuardian: According to the bestiary, Dandylions are typically found guarding the entrances to caves.

* HeroesPreferSwords: Faerious, an Elfless who managed to control their anger, is contrasted heroically with the much meaner Grampus who projects their own anger upon others; and sure enough, not only does Faerious wield a sword and shield, but to drive the point home, is also the only monster in the game to have the move Heroic Blade in their level-up learnset.

* SecretArt: Yule Regret That, an attack that is always a critical hit if used against a target that has already taken damage during that turn. Grampus is the only one to get it naturally, but Elfless and Faerious can also use the sticker if you pick up a spare.

* RestingRecovery: Their SecretArt is called Hibernate, which puts them to sleep but also heals them for a fair chunk of health every turn.

* WellDoneSonGuy: [[spoiler:It becomes obvious she is painfully aware that Felix viewed her as an embarrassing OC he created when he was a kid, before he realized she had come to life. Reconciling the two is part of Felix's personal quest.]]

* CompositeCharacter: She combine's Alice's figure and hair with the Queen of Hearts' heart motif, along with her egotism.

* SignatureMon: Very fond of the Binvader line. Their rematch team has four Binterlopers.

* PunnyName: The name "Lodestein" sounds a bit like "lodestone"; a naturally magnetic stone. You can reach Lodestein after acquiring the magnetism ability, and his preferred strategy involves electromagnetism.

* PowerCordTail: Cat-5 has two power cords as tails.

* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Early residents of New Wirral thought these creatures were angels due to how strange and incomprehensible they seemed. Unlike with the Archangels, who are still perceived as otherwordly, people eventually learned more about these creatures and how to deal with them, so they're simply called monsters now.

* SecretArt: Their Acid Reflex passive gives them a chance to poison any opponent that strikes or are struck by them in melee, similar to the Contact Damage buff.

* FingerGuns: Blunderbusk makes this gesture to fire projectiles. This is both noted in the bestiary and shown in Blunderbusk's attack animation.
