Violet (or to call her by her full non-canon name, Violet Skittles Unicorn), is a barbarian sailor unicorn. She starts the campaign out kidnapped by a bullywug.
----
* AllGirlsLikePonies: Lavinia immediately takes a shine to her, which is only furthered when Violet saves her in episode three.
* AmazonianBeauty: [[spoiler:Once she turns into a human.]]
* AmbiguousInnocence: Violet has a ''serious'' violent streak.
-->'''Austin:''' Leon, I think we need to have a discussion about Violet's alignment.
* BackToBackBadasses: In the double duel against the orcs, Violet fights with Drop at her side, even performing some impressive cooperative kills.
* BeautyEqualsGoodness: One of her less pleasant traits is to assume anything ugly is hostile.
* [[TheBigGuy The Big Girl]]: She is by far the most solid of the player characters. Her occasional complaints about damage tend to irk other more... ''delicate'' members of the team.
--> '''[[GlassCannon Alias:]]''' Oh, poor meat woman with her 49 hitpoints...
* BuddyCopShow: She seems to believe she is on one with the modron Swift Justice.
* CaptainCrash: While Violet is usually a snappy driver, she flubs her most crucial ship landing [[spoiler:on the Autumn Palace in the Fey Wild.]]
* CrushBlush: Has one in episode 29 for Drop. She also seems to value his safety and friendship over other members of the party, and certainly over the NPCs.
* CuteAndPsycho: To the point where Vinnie makes it a point of telling her not to murder her entire family.
-->'''Lavinia:''' Just don't attack anyone cause they're petting you, okay?
-->'''Violet:''' I'll try. I get really angry for no reason sometimes.
-->'''Lavinia:''' Oh my gosh Violet, if you kill my family-!
-->'''Violet:''' There is a deep and powerful darkness inside me that sometimes bubbles to the surface in ways that cannot be explained by mere mortals. [[MoodWhiplash But okay !]]
* DraggedOffToHell: In the cliffhanger of episode 34, Violet fails a wisdom roll to resist the call of the hell portal. [[spoiler:Then she rages.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Violet is introduced in a cage. Her first roll is to kick the door. Her natural 20 rips the hinges off and incapacitates her captor.
* ExtremeOmnivore: As mentioned below, she ate half a crystal, successfully breaking it with her teeth.
* HumanityEnsues: [[spoiler:After Violet dies at Swift Justice's hands, Vinnie sells her broken horn to the witch Blue Welch in exchange for a reincarnation spell, and she comes back as a rather confused and sad human.]]
* InnocentBigot: Violet isn't quite aware she's doing it, but she's very proud of her unicorn-ness, to the point of implicitly believing in her superiority.
* KillerRabbit: Anyone who underestimates Violet based on her enchanting appearance and tries to take advantage of her... [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice tends to regret it.]]
* LeeroyJenkins: Tends to stab first, ask questions never.
* LethalJokeCharacter: Much to Austin's annoyance. While Violet is strong, her stats aren't that impressive. The lethal aspect comes with the ridiculously good rolls she's introduced with.
* MushroomSamba: Narrowly averted with a few good rolls after she eats half of a crystal from a weird pocket dimension in episode 9. Then, immediately after, Shitty Geoff gets her drunk.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Says this almost word for word after her frenzy at the orc camp.
* NaiveNewcomer: She's unfamiliar with the customs of the material plane.
* NonstandardCharacterDesign: Unicorns definitely aren't a playable race in the handbook.
* PetTheDog: In spite of being a rather selfish and volatile character, Violet is genuinely distressed over [[spoiler:Drop "falling" overboard from the Violet 1, and upon finding him again, gives him a hug that nearly tramples him.]]
* RapunzelHair: Has a rather impressive rainbow mane [[spoiler: which she keeps as a human.]]
* OddCouple: Forms a LawfulStupidChaoticStupid double act with Swift Justice, a modron obsessed with stopping crime who is a walking talking reference to the Saints Row 3 episode of Monster Factory.
* SanitySlippage: The longer Violet stays in the Prime Material Plane, the more stab happy she becomes.
* ScreamingWarrior: In episode 35, she does this while activating her rage powers.
* SenselessSacrifice: She attempts to catch [[spoiler:Drop]] as he falls from the sky, knowing that it would not save him and would certainly kill her.
* StrangerInAFamiliarLand: Violet becomes quite upset upon approaching their destination in the Fey Wilds, as she believes her family will not accept her given the ways the Prime Material Plane has changed her.
* UnstoppableRage: This is actually an ability of Violet's, which prevents her from being charmed or persuaded from her chosen course of action.
* YouKilledMyFather: Violet gives the final blow to [[spoiler:Welch.]]
--> '''Violet:''' [[spoiler:Give me back my ghost mom!]]

[[folder: Drop]]
!!Johnny Maloney
-->'''Drop:''' My friends have a tendency to... die.
A desperately unlucky and clinically depressed monk, also known as Sad Punch Boy.

[[caption-width-right:350:Credit to [[https://twitter.com/piripipi007 Becky C]]]]
----
* TheAtoner: After causing the massacre of the orc camp on the Tiger Mountains and encountering Jem, the daughter of one of the casualties, Drop eventually chooses to turn himself in [[spoiler:in order to spare Dr. Sherry, the wrongful suspect. Completing the atonement, he spares her life in spite of her protestations, leading to Vinnie being able to remove the lycanthropy curse that made her so unhappy.]]
* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: [[spoiler: In episode 14, Drop turns into a screaming punch happy murderer, with no regards to his self preservation.]]
* BerserkButton: Drop ''really'' doesn't like it when any of his new friends are in danger.
* BookDumb: Johnny likes to play this up, for example really dragging out his realization that Cyldiel is Alias' mom.
-->'''Drop:''' I'm not... good at math...
* BornUnlucky: His parents, his home, his hometown, his monk friends...
* ChekhovsGun: His bagpipes, which rarely come up otherwise, are eventually given to Vinnie after [[spoiler:she gives away her lute in order to buy Alias a new arm.]]
* CosmicPlaything: So much so that a monastery took him in and tried to help him get over his self loathing problems. He went on to draw involuntary death onto the monastery and decide it would be better for everyone if he left. It ''never'' gets better, especially since [[spoiler:his very existence has to be cancelled in order to bring back a sustainable status quo to Lorelei.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler: It's eventually revealed that the presence in Drop's head comes from an unfortunate pact his father concluded to ensure him surviving birth, his exact words being: "I will give you anything." Oops.]]
* DespairSpeech:
-->'''Drop:''' Haven't you noticed? The world is ending.
* DoomMagnet: Every single one of his carers and loved ones have died, for seemingly no reason except a possible curse.
* DreadfulMusician: Drop playing the bagpipes is a ''very'' bad thing. The players theorize that everytime Drop plays, the ocean level rises.
* TheEeyore: Drop is cited to have emotional problems due to thinking of himself as a nexus of death, and speaks in a slow distant monotone.
* FourthWallObserver: Drop is the only character who seems aware that he is in a roleplaying game.
-->'''Drop:''' Statistically speaking, I did average.
** He occasionally contaminates others:
-->'''Violet:''' Hey Drop, you look different. Why?
-->'''Drop:''' I gained a level.
-->'''Violet:''' Solid! Me too. Horse five!
-->'''Austin:''' I hate you.
* GallowsHumor: Drop has developed a very deadpan version of this, and certainly no one can blame him.
* GuardianEntity: Drop discovered in episode 8 that a strange voice lives in his head and occasionally gives him advice. Whether or not it actually wishes him well is up to debate, given Drop has lived surrounded by death.
* HeroicBSOD: His freak out in episode 14 solidifies as this in the ending, with the speech he gives in his dream.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: He is the only character who's erased completely from existence by Lavinia's geas to remove all of Zavala's interventions in Lorelei in the past decades. The Blackhearts live until their murder at the hands of Swift Justice, and Lavinia still exists in her initial human form.]]
* TheHermit: For ''very'' good reason.
* IconicOutfit: Drop has the most vague description of any of the characters, even his being Tethyrian is little indication, as the culture is a melting pot. And yet, his fanart depictions are almost always of a fit young man with brown skin, a blue tunic and a ponytail + undercut. It has been remarked upon many times that Fanon!Drop looks remarkably like [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Sokka]]. Now, the combination of the shaved sides and Pimp Coat of Corellon have lead to frequent Macklemore comparisons.
* KungFuWizard: Starting level 6, his fists deal actual magic damage.
* LivingEmotionalCrutch: While his relationship to the three others is far from harmonious, he seems to have gotten used to their presence as a rare constant, and as such is very ''reluctant'' to see them come to harm.
* MadeOfIron: At level 6, he has both a ridiculously high AC and accelerated healing ability, which makes him very durable, even though his hitpoints aren't the highest in the party.
* MartialMedic: Drop, while not a magical healer, is very competent in medicine.
--> '''Drop:''' I'm the hottest nurse!
* MrFanservice: It is a running gag that in spite of his turtle personality, he has the body of a Greek god.
* NoodleIncident: The freak cart accident, the laundry incident, the banana peel prank that should have been very funny, and more.
* PetTheDog: Though his usual apathy and cynicism hides it, Drop "drops" frequent hints that his friends mean a lot to him, such as his existential panic when their lives are threatened, his carrying [[spoiler:Violet's]] unconscious body all alone to the ship, screaming all the way, and actually showing some emotional support [[spoiler:to Alias when he is wounded,]] and given his own chronic emotional problems, acquiring the ability to do this is quite a milestone.
-->'''Drop:''' I have to protect my home.
** Additionally, his immediate care and reassurance towards the gnome prisoners is especially endearing.
** While Drop and Vinnie's relationship has been tense to say the least, he still takes into account her feelings when choosing how to deal with [[spoiler:Jem]], eventually electing to give them another chance whether they want it or not.
* RetGone: [[spoiler:Less extreme than some examples, but still: by the end of the campaign, Drop is a nameless stillborn. He may have existed a brief moment, but never as the person we came to know him as.]]
* OnlySaneMan: While Drop isn't necessarily stable, or in possession of a productive mindset, Drop has the highest wisdom so he's often the most aware of his surroundings. In spite of what he lacks in intelligence, during later episodes Alias and Drop consult a lot as co-only sane men.
* SadClown: Drop has developed something of a joyless observational sense of humour, which would probably be a great hit as a stand up show, but as an adventurer is mostly a little offputting to his companions.
* SanitySlippage: Jesus ''Christ'', does he have one. In episode 14 [[spoiler:Drop enters a violent and near suicidal frenzy at the Orc camp.]]
* SexGod: Johnny repeats a theory from Twitter that suggests Drop might cause death to those around him because of his being Drop Dead Sexy. This delightful theory seems to now be canon, as Violet pretexts wanting to know what human bellybuttons look like to get his shirt off. Lavinia whoops at this, and tells him to take the shirt back off afterwards.
* TookALevelInJerkass: After stabilizing from his freakout in episode 14, Drop is a lot more aggressive and inconsiderate towards the people around him, in particular towards Vinnie. This, however, is a case of one step back two steps forward, as in the long term he becomes a more stable and altruistic person.
* TheToothHurts: The harpoon that pierces his cheek also shatters several of his teeth.
* [[WhenSheSmiles When He Smiles]]: Smiles for the very first time in the adventure in episode 36, while reconciling with his mentor Sheithayne. In typical Drop fashion, it immediately hurts him because of his battle injury.
* WorthyOpponent: Tusk declares that he respects Drop's abilities so much, he wants them both to survive the endgame so they can fight to the death together. This flatters Drop so much he is moved to tears, and then [[HoYay they go have hotdogs together.]]

[[folder: Lavinia]]
!!Lauren Morgan
-->'''Lavinia:''' I've already died. I'm pretty sure you only get one.
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/clzwde_wgaavxat.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Credit to [[https://twitter.com/sludge_eater Finch]]]]
A dryad bard. Once a human, she was brought back to life by the goddess Ehlonna after dying to defend a sacred tree in her natal village.
----
* AccidentalPervert: Once she has access to a language spell and is able to communicate with Ziggy the bullywug, he admits he was confused whether she was being friendly or attempting to engage in a bullywug mating ritual.
* ActionDad: Her bird dad K is buff, and described as if Solid Snake and Arnold Schwarzenegger were fused together.
* AffectionateNickname: Joan the Drow calls Vinnie "little leaf".
* AllLovingHero: Lavinia has a noted reputation for trying to befriend every hostile she meets, and usually succeeding. Her platonic conquests to date include the bullywug Ziggy Ribbits, two orcs, and a spectator.
* AndNowYouMustMarryMe: A rather creepy implication of [[spoiler:the ring shaped mark left on alternate timeline Vinnie's finger by Zavala,]] though it's possible it may signify ownership in a more general sense rather than literal engagement. Which is. Well. Quite a bit creepier.
* AuthorAvatar: Austin accuses Lauren of playing a cooler version of herself. She does not deny it.
* BadassPacifist: She has an ''amazing'' skill at turning the crew's enemies into allies, managing to turn those that the others would call hopelessly hostile to her side of the story. Jem tries to turn her away from this path, but [[spoiler:as their relationship doesn't last long, neither does her influence.]]
* TheBard: Her character class.
* BerserkButton: While Lavinia tends to befriend everyone and anyone, Sheithayne's perceived religious hypocrisy and guilting Drop for saving his own life is enough to set her off.
* BiTheWay: Cheers on Drop to take off his shirt, and [[spoiler: shares a kiss with the half-orc Jem.]]
* ChristianRock: As a religiously devout bard, it seems she is the fantasy equivalent of a Christian rock star.
* CovertPervert: Beyond her occasional ogling, Austin reminds the group that dryads are naturally very horny.
* CuteClumsyGirl: A short, chubby, clumsy dryad. As drawn by her player, she is indeed quite adorable. In the anime tradition of cute clumsy girls, she is also a bit of a crybaby.
-->'''Austin''': This character is [[Manga/SailorMoon Usagi]] as fuck!
* [[spoiler: DeadAllAlong: Though she may believe she is the Lavinia raised by Moreno and K, it is confirmed repeatedly that she is merely a confused tree spirit occupying Lavinia's old mutated body. Drop reveals this rather indelicately to K, who does not take it well.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: The human Lavinia, upon being murdered by an enraged Sherry while guarding the tree, was approached by [[spoiler:Zavala]] who gave her new life as a dryad, taking her human skin as payment.
** [[spoiler:The dryad Lavinia, upon meeting Zavala, makes the geas to annul all other geas's. She gives away a finger, so that Zavala will not have touched Lorelei for as long as she has lived. In this new timeline, she remains human.]]
-->'''Vinnie:''' I'll give you anything.
* FolkHero: Her origin story, as her recent transformation brought her a degree of infamy.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Though this can translate to some creeper tendencies.
-->'''Lavinia''': You're such a pretty horse!
** She is best friends with the nameless bullywug mage, and befriends Joan the Drow.
* GlurgeAddict: Ehlonna herself could not stop her from cooing.
* GuileHero: She is already firmly cemented as this by the time she [[spoiler:stops Hunter and the Kuo-Toa from taking the Violet 1 crew hostage]] just by talking it out.
* [[HasTwoMommies Has Two Dads]]: Two adoptive anthropomorphic bird dads, no less.
* HealingHands: She seems to approach each challenge by running towards it while casting Cure Wounds.
* TheHeart: Lavinia is by far the most moral of the main cast, and becomes emotionally distraught when faced with violence. Late in the campaign, Lauren presents an out of character ultimatum that Vinnie ''will'' leave the party if [[spoiler:they choose to commit genocide against the Kuo-Toa to save the world]].
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Lavinia seals a geas with Zavala to annul all his interventions in Lorelei in the crew's lifetime. As such, the Blackhearts never make it to Spira, Human Lavinia is never murdered, and thus Dryad Lavinia who considers herself a distinct person, never existed at all.]]
* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: A spectator turns her Dissonant Whispers against her, and leaves her temporarily desperate to escape her own body.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: The problem with befriending everyone is that it actually means everyone, so when Vinnie realizes she's going to have to introduce Ziggy and Joan to K, she panics a little.
* MarkOfTheBeast: [[spoiler:The only clue that alternative timeline Lavinia has to the events of the campaign is the mark on her finger.]]
* NeutralFemale: Vinnie rarely fights in the conventional sense, and often takes a step back in battles to take care of diplomacy. This is hardly a case of gender stereotyping, given that Violet, and in season 1 Jayne and Anne are all very bloodthirsty women.
* ThePollyanna: Has a tendency to think very well of people she's only just met, and to support them morally through the gift of leaves.
-->'''Jem:''' You had your throat slit.
-->'''Vinnie:''' Yep. And I turned it around and made it a positive situation.
* QuirkyCurls: Her mane of leaves seems to mimic this.
* ShipperOnDeck: She seems very interested in the going-ons between Alias and Amber/Joan. And Sherry and Amber/Joan. She's just really invested in Joan's love life, okay?
-->'''Vinnie:''' Joan, I wanna do something to you, okay?
-->'''Joan:''' [LAUGHS UPROARIOUSLY IN RUSSIAN]
* SongParody: All of her bard tunes are real-world songs with the lyrics swapped out to fit the world of D&D.
* TomatoInTheMirror: Whether or not this is true has yet to be seen, but The Voice That Lives In Drop's Head insists that the real Vinnie is dead, and the tree spirit inhabiting her body mistakenly believes it is the real Vinnie. [[spoiler: She begins to realize this is the case after the fight with the spectator.]]
* TomboyishName: Her nickname is Vinnie.
* WideEyedIdealist: She really dislikes hurting people, to the point of not interfering much in many battles.
* WhipItGood: Her main physical weapon is a vine from her sacred tree, wielded like a whip. It helps that it is covered in thorns.
* WhodunnitToMe: Hilariously averted, when Dr. Sherry the gnoll wonders out loud if Vinnie is the woman she murdered, while Vinnie cringes and pretends not to be there because she doesn't want to deal with this situation.

[[folder: Alias]]
!!Michael "Skitch" Schiciano
-->'''Alias:''' Actually Violet, I have an equally important task for you that does not involve smashing anything. Except smashing us all with knowledge.

[[quoteright:340:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c0vak4yviaaec34.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:340:Credit to [[https://twitter.com/cosmignon Cosmignon]]]]
Alias is an Eladrin rogue far traveller. And it's actually pronounced "El-lee-us", by the way.
----
* AccidentalMurder: Due to an unwanted crit, Alias winds up easily dispatching Guy when the plan was to throw the battle.
* AffectionateNickname: Joan calls him "little book boy". Nicknames are kind of [[TheNicknamer her thing]].
* AnArmAndALeg: [[spoiler: After his arm is wounded with black amber, Welch downright ''explodes'' his arm off, only to grow a new unwounded one.]]
* AnimalMotifs: The magpie, of course.
* AwesomeButImpractical: His tendencies for showy moves are best represented in episode 34, when Drop is dropped (aha) through the air, and Alias fey steps part of the way up, casts Tenser's Floating Disk above himself to reduce Drop's fall, then falls back to the ground.
-->'''Johnny:''' I also can fey step too. So... not much of that was necessary.
-->'''Skitch:''' Here's the thing: you get to land standing on top of a planar force that makes it look like you're floating with nothing underneath you. You should take that offer, dude. It's the most anime thing you can do, right now.
* BadassBookworm: Alias is a very impressive wizard for a beginner, and in spite of having a rather polite and discrete personality, has a tendency to be flashier in combat that entirely necessary - also while playing cards.
* BreakTheCutie: Alias' morale is at an all time low during episode 27, where he admits that he might not the right man for the situation. [[spoiler: This only increases when at the end of the episode, he is mortally wounded, and Vinnie and Drop both pay a dear price to heal him, setting the stage for a rising level of guilt and insecurity.]]
* CityMouse: He gets very unhappy when nature is uncooperative, especially when it affects his appearance.
* DavidVersusGoliath: Enters a one-on-one duel with Guy, the orc chef/chief, although the duel was never actually meant to be deadly.
* DopeSlap: Gives Drop one when he starts disrespecting Vinnie and Violet's religion.
** And yet another to Violet, when she starts going on about how all orcs are evil while [[TokenHeroicOrc Tusk]] is present in the same room.
* EarAche: Has an earring shaped in the symbol of Corellon ripped out by an orc, and spends the episode gushing blood.
* {{Elfeminate}}: Eladrin are even elfier than their Material plane counterparts.
* EmptyEyes: These don't denote trauma, as Alias is still something of a sweet summer child, but they're actually a racial feature.
* EvilMentor: Joan teaches Alias the magic he'd envied for so long, but she also gets the party involved in some seriously questionable endeavours and suggests selling Violet early on.
* FantasticRacism: Secretly thinks Eladrin are better, and expresses disdain towards gnomes.
* GentlemanAndAScholar: Alias is both very well read and unfailingly mild mannered and pleasant, which also makes him in a literal sense, if not according to trope definition, a GentlemanWizard.
* GlassCannon: In terms of hit points, Alias is very fragile. That said, he was the last of the party to ever be K.O.
* GreenEyedMonster: A very mild example, but according to Skitch, Alias feels a little jilted by Vinnie's series of new best friends, as when they met he initially thought ''they'' were new best friends.
* HasTwoMommies: There is a glorious war of rival mothering between Cyldiel, his actual mother, and Joan, his rather fond mentor. Joan makes a joke about Alias somehow pulling a third mom out of nowhere.
* HeroicWannabe: He read about magic in the material plane, and in spite of everyone's warnings back home, thought "Why not me?" Austin jokes in episode 32 that the entire campaign was Alias' self insert fanfiction.
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: [[spoiler:Zavala]] doesn't even bother trying to seduce him into a deal, because he's just too principled and smart to take it. Solidified later on when Skitch admits that Alias has more or less completed his life goal, so there's nothing that can distract him from the righteous path.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: When on the road to get the Blackhearts, he tells Joan the following about her ex-girlfriend:
-->'''Alias:''' I'll say hi to Lita for you!
* JackOfAllTrades: By the end of the campaign, Alias has levels in Rogue, Wizard, and Fighter, effectively ending his GlassCannon status and completing his bladesinger archetype.
* OnlySaneMan: Alias appears to be the one with his mind the most focused on the task at hand.
* MommasBoy: While Alias himself doesn't correspond to this trope quite as much, on a meta level Skitch is constantly enthusing about mama Cyldiel's bladesinger abilities and stats.
* MyBelovedSmother: His mother Cyldiel is a very... ''outspoken'' woman, and had explicitly forbidden him from practicing magic. On the plus side, when Alias sent a message calling for help, [[spoiler:she came running to the material plane.]]
* NaiveNewcomer: Used what were essentially outdated textbooks as his information on the material plane before diving in.
* NiceGuy: He exists at the balance point, being more willing to draw a line between friend and foe than Lavinia, but more globally agreable - if a little awkward at times - than Drop and Violet.
* NoodlePeople: Alias starts out skinny since he's an Eladrin, and becomes even more so as the adventure goes on, K calling him tiny.
* PhraseCatcher:
-->'''Alias:''' I don't understand [the finger guns] but I like them.
* TeamMom: He is the most adapted to both taking charge and making rational decisions for the team, and comforting any team members who might need it - usually Vinnie. He even worries about how to find a positive outlet for Violet's rowdy behaviour.
* TimeDissonance: Another reason why Alias is baffled by Lavinia's platonic (and in one case romantic) conquests is his life expectancy as an Eladrin. Whereas he believes friendships should be built over decades, Lavinia is more of a LoveYouAndEverybody type for whom compassion and friendship are ultimately synonymous and quasi-instantaneous.
* TookALevelInBadass: After getting his earring torn out, he merely looks the orc responsible in the eye, and picks the earring back up.
-->'''Orc:''' Elf braver than thought!
-->'''Alias:''' I've been through a lot. Consider this a minor inconvenience.
* TheSmartGuy: Alias is by far the most bookish of the crew, and seems to be the most aware of his circumstances, outdated maps aside.
* UnfazedEveryman: Invoked when he walks in on Vinnie with her hand on Joan's face [[spoiler:because she's removing her geas to Zavala.]]
-->'''Alias:''' This is honestly not the most unusual thing I could've seen when I walked into this room. I've seen a lot of weird things on this ship.
-->'''Austin:''' [[ADateWithRosiePalms Violet acclimated to her body very quickly.]]
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: While he is a hundred years old, it's still quite young for an elf, and he show a great level of maturity and diplomacy in all situations. The flipside of this is that he is trusted with more decisions and secrets than the others, which puts an enormous amount of stress on him.
* WrongGenreSavvy: Very knowledgeable about the Material Plane... as it was thousands of years ago.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Austin (DM)]]
!!Austin
The dungeon master for season 2.
----
* BenevolentBoss: Austin is a very lighthearted and friendly DM, though he is sometimes aghast at the absurd behaviour of the players. He also makes several time extensions in order to allow for [[spoiler:Violet to live.]]
* CallBack: Anne's teddy bear is stored as an artifact in the temple of Primus, and the party reads a book by [[spoiler:Jack Robertson, glorifying his defeat of Gorfinax.]]
* GagCensor: Starts employing audio versions of these in episode 2. He edits the Poke rap over any of Leon's attempts to use Violet's true name.
* KillerGameMaster: He's not turned into this yet, but has been on record saying he would make things very difficult for Leon's unicorn character, as revenge for the trolling that is her existence. [[spoiler: He gets his way eventually: he not only kills her off, but brings her back as a human.]]
* LighterAndFluffier: After the black comedy horror of season 1, he wanted to make something Film/ThePrincessBride inspired. He later describes the campaign as "a moist Undertale." That said, the campaign turns downright grisly later on.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Austin likes to have interesting NPCs from each area join the squad as NPC allies, which is also motivated by the more diplomatic player characters. The Outer Senshi of the Violet One crew includes, as of the beginning of the Cascades arc, Ziggy Ribbits, Joan, K, Tusk, Cyldiel, Isaac, Judy, and for [[GuestStarPartyMember a brief time]], Jem, Swift Justice, and Hunter.
* PoisonousFriend: Likes to encourage outlandish behaviour in the players, like, for example, egging Drop on to ''break his own ankle''. He also gets mad when everyone avoids a bear trap in episode 7.
* ShipperOnDeck: He teases Alias/Drop. Johnny and Skitch accuse him of only doing this because he is addicted to fanart.
[[/folder]]

!!!Outer Senshi
[[folder: Joan]]
!!Joan, Scion of Lolth, Protector of Black Amber
Joan is a Drow whom the party meets near Meadowlark island, and attempts to guide them towards the cause of the flooding while shielding the specifics of her agenda.
----
* ArtificialLimbs: Has a leg she took from a modron.
* TheAtoner: Joan believes that she and the Blackhearts caused the flooding by concluding their geas to end sacrifice, and that this can only be solved with their deaths. [[spoiler:It turns out she was right.]]
* {{Bifauxnen}}: Wears a snazzy suit.
* DarkIsNotEvil: An inevitable trope with a non-evil aligned Drow.
* DealWithTheDevil: Joan, Lita, Sherry, and Fox all wanted to live in a world without sacrifice. The wish was not granted in a satisfactory manner, to say the least.
* HeroWithAnFInGood: Joan still has some of the typical Drow social mores, though she has good intentions overall. The way she shines most as an example of this trope is no doubt [[spoiler:the fact that by concluding a geas to end sacrifice, she ended up empowering the very concept of Sacrifice beyond anything she could've imagined.]]
* NonActionSnarker: Joan is ''very'' fragile, Austin comparing her strength to that of a child with polio, but that doesn't stop her from commenting from the bench.
* TheObiWan: An odd example as she doesn't really fit the stereotypical image, but still fits the narrative role as a quest giver and mentor to Alias.
* ShelteredAristocrat: While Joan has a wide range of abilities, they aren't very in depth, and are mostly in there just for show in the higher ranks of Drow society. Which is why she surrounds herself with more powerful individuals to aid in her quest.
* WorkingWithTheEx: When the crew of the Violet One merges [[spoiler:with the crew of the Zavala]] she has an awkward meeting with [[spoiler:Lita.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Ziggy]]
!!Ziggy Ribbits
Ziggy is a bullywug mage travelling under orders of the chief of Hole-in-the-earth.
----
* BlackMage: Mainly uses offensive magic, one of the rare bullywugs to do so, as he was instructed by Welch the Blue.
* DemonicPossession: [[spoiler: The spectator in the Cascades turns Ziggy against the party, causing him to kill himself with his own spell.]]
* LanguageBarrier: Ziggy speaks in a variety of ribbits that are not comprehensible to any member of the party until later in the campaign. This makes it harder to parse his intentions.
* PettingZooPeople: Bullywugs are in effect, anthro frogs or... anfrogs? Anthrogs? And Vinnie finds them all absolutely adorable.
* SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: When we first meet him, Ziggy has tricked Violet and taken her hostage to sell her. [[spoiler:Knowing what we later find out, it seems likely he might've actually brought her back to Welch in order for her to serve as a component in her staff.]]
* SuicideAttack: [[spoiler:He takes a bomb made by Welch into the caverns on the road to Kalopsia, that will detonate when the Drow troops approach.]]

[[folder: Sheriff K]]
!!Sheriff Keenan 'K' Bird
Vinnie's adoptive father, and one of two leaders of the cult of Ehlonna in Spira.
----
* BirdPeople: K is a Kenku, just like his husband Moreno. Inconveniences include being flightless and having brittle bones, positives include an ability to imitate voices to quasi perfection.
* GoodShepherd: For the most part, K is working for the good of Spira, but is also clearly concerned about expansion and financial gain for his cult.
* HollywoodActionHero: His muscular appearance and the context of his first meeting invokes this. He ends up being a precious ally to the Violet One.
* LeeroyJenkins: K has a tendency to jump to conclusions, especially where his daughter is concerned, leading to people being stuffed into barrels or thrown overboard for not much reason at all.
* PapaWolf: K's worst fear seems to be losing his daughter a second time. It is understandable that [[spoiler:Drop telling him his daughter has been dead a very long time]] would make him unhappy.

[[folder: Cyldiel]]
!!Cyldiel Valamin
Alias' mother, who stomped through the planes after receiving a letter from her son asking for assistance.

* CityMouse: Shown in her introduction to be endlessly frustrated at how uncouth the Material Plane is.

* MagicKnight: She is, like Alias eventually becomes, a bladesinger who takes elements from three different classes.
* MamaBear: God protect those who threaten her precious boy.
* MyBelovedSmother: Alias felt restricted in the Fey Wild, and Cyldiel is indeed a bit overbearing. However, she does allow him to make his own decisions and grow as a person, and steps up to protect and comfort him as is needed.
* RetiredBadass: Finds herself sort of enjoying all the action she encounters in the Material Plane.

A kobold metalworker and craftswoman.
----

!!Doctor Sherry

----
* CombatMedic: A medic who also happens to be one of the rare practitioners of non-magical surgery in Lorelei. She was educated to become this specifically as a humiliation, as gnoll society would not consider it an honorable job.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Feels this way about Lavinia's pre-dryad murder, as she was not in control of her actions at the time.
* SouthernBelle: She has the accent, and the rather gentle disposition [[spoiler:so long as she isn't having one of her episodes.]]

An bodiless entity that has followed Drop a very very long time, and occasionally speaks to him.
----
* AffablyEvil: Always speaks in a very jocular tone of voice and has quite candid conversations with his targets.

* BigBad: [[spoiler:His geas with the Kuo-Toa is the cause of all the flooding.]]
* EnemyWithin: Has access to the inside of Drop's head anytime he wants as [[spoiler:Drop exists due to a geas made by his father, and is imbued with dark energy because of it.]]

* RestrainingBolt: [[spoiler:Prevents any of those he concludes a geas with from speaking his name.]]

-->'''Bumbershoot:''' What are you doing in there, you busy little sausage?
[[quoteright:255:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c8bfdghumaqsgqu.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:255:By [[https://twitter.com/cosmignon Cosmignon]]]]
Viscount Bumbershoot Von Victrola is a LawfulEvil vampire from the land of Fangsylvania who has lost sight of his sire, Count Danto.
----
* AboveGoodAndEvil: He considers himself as such. [[BerserkButton Rolen would disagree.]]
* BunnyEarsLawyer: While he is a very goofy character, he does have an interest in astronomy that suggests he might be a little cerebral, as indicated by the astrolabes and telescopes in his room.
* CannotTellALie: This is specific to his sire, Count Danto.
* ClassyCane: Conceals an [[CaneFu actual weapon]].
* TheCharmer: He is a charisma based character, and angled towards smooth-talking. What's more, he always has advantage on persuasion.
* DayWalkingVampire: If only because Ilium functions with artificial daylight, produced magically, that contains no UVs.
* DoomedHometown: Fangsylvania was burned to the ground by a vampire hunter called Raven Stern.
* EvilIsPetty: Bumbershoot has a tendency to hold grudges against those who offend him, whether the insult is intentional or not. Being petty might be a good way to rationalize murdering a minimum of one person a week...
* GothicHorror: He is very faithful to this aesthetic, to the point of redecorating his bedroom door at the Avant Guards' office.
* HighClassGlass: Wears a monocle to complete his very fancy look. Goes with his mustache.
* HorrorHunger: Bumbershoot has no moral qualms about his station, but the practical fact remains: if he doesn't drink from someone at the very least once a week, he will die. Played with in that he theoretically doesn't ''have'' to kill the person he feeds from, he just thinks that's what vampires are supposed to do.
* MustBeInvited: Vampire rules sadly apply to him, and he cannot enter any private dwelling without permission from one of the residents.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He was turned at 46, but is actually 104.
* PutOnABus: [[spoiler:Jailed indefinitely in a distant dimension by Warden Light, due to Leon taking a hiatus.]]
* ShapeShifting: Can become a bat, a wolf, or even mist.
* SharingABody: After a disastrous attempted feeding, Bumbershoot ends up sharing a body with the necromancer Maximilian Hawthorne.
* UpperClassTwit: Very snooty, while also being remarkably unwise.
* VampiresAreRich: Believes vampires to be the peak of high society.
* VegetarianVampire: Everyone is under the impression he gets his blood through the mail. He's actually ''quite'' murderous.
* WouldHurtAChild: His first reaction upon meeting Zoey:

[[folder:Rolen Hawklight]]
!!Skitch
-->'''Rolen:''' It's not going to make more sense until it makes less sense at first.
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c8c_wyeuaaaflmj.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Art by [[https://twitter.com/cosmignon Cosmignon]]]]
Rolen Hawklight is a half-elven lawful good justiciar, raised in the Nynsun Chapel, who was a knight of the Order of the Merciful Sword, until he refused some rather unmerciful orders and was thrown out as a result. He wandered out on his own, looking for redemption, ending up in Ilium.
----
* AnimalMotifs: Is associated with the griffon.
* TheAtoner: He's trying to fight for good in a better way than his order did.
* CelibateHero: Rolen is more interested in embodying the virtues of the Triad than in any type of romance.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: He is a paladin with the main stat switched after all. His first action in the game is to rush Zoey away from vicious attention.
* CoolHorse: Has a warhorse named Trinity.
* CoveredWithScars: Was cruelly flogged by his own comrades when he refused to kill innocents for them.
* DefectorFromDecadence: Left his order after he was flogged for refusing to slaughter a harmless orc village.
* DorkKnight: Beyond the dorkiness that might be attributed by his lack of charisma, he delivers this humdinger after being escorted to a party by a skeleton guard:
-->'''Rolen:''' I'll have your bones to pick with your boss.
* GoodIsNotNice: While Rolen is good and knows what he's doing, his charisma score means he's not very good at advertising his particular program. That said, he does believe that individual demeanor can be a tool in maintaining morale and making life more bearable, and takes... [[PungeonMaster steps, into implementing this in his personal behaviour.]]
* GuileHero: Surprisingly, given he is a low charisma character, but he tries his hardest to unite the team through emotional means, aiming to kill their differences with kindness. For example, when he offers his shield to Zoey, and his sword to Veltari.
* HonorBeforeReason: He will never strike down an unarmed foe, no matter how evil they are.
* HurtingHero: This shows when after being faced with his worst fear of all his old companions walking under the command of Danto, he later has to isolate himself in his room to cry. And while he is perhaps too goal-oriented for friendship, there's certainly a sting in him saying he has no friends in Ilium.
* ImpossiblyTackyClothes: For the party heist, Dora makes him a very frilly shirt. Austin describes as the puffy Seinfeld shirt, whereas Lauren describes it as having a Music/{{Prince}} vibe.
* KnightErrant: His quest for redemption is certainly evocative of this archetype.
* TheLeader: Described as always pushing himself into a place of authority, even when he has no authority.
* {{Mangst}}: No more visible than when he discovers [[spoiler:the body of his old friends Warder, and concurrently the extent of the corruption in the Order.]]
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: Nor does he suffer the hurting of innocents.
* NiceGuy: Decidedly so. Unprompted, he decides to deliver Dora's crabs for her because he ruined her Prince costume, and when he meets Carrie after the party, offers her a friendly ear to vent to.
* OnlySaneMan: Rolen is the closest thing to a normal guy the player party has, as well as the closest thing to a functioning adult.
* OrphansOrdeal: Spent the largest part of his childhood in an orphanage at the Nynsun Chapel. Whatever happened to his parents is unknown.
* ThePaladin: He was almost made to have this class, due to having been part of a paladin order, but in order to balance the very charisma heavy party, Skitch went with an intelligence based character.
* PluckyComicRelief: He tries to be this, making silly puns in the hope of putting good vibes into the world.
* PurpleIsPowerful: Has purple eyes, has power.
* RealMenLoveJesus: Or rather, real men love Tyr, Ilmater, and Torm.
* TheSmartGuy: In a grand departure from the previous season, Skitch plays the brain.
* TeamDad: His initial interactions with the party, Zoey especially, point towards him being this trope.
* VigilanteMan: Enacts justice according to his own authority. He is described as "judge-like".

Dora is a chaotic neutral Nixie from the Feywild, who was sought out by the God Ghaunadaur for a special assignment in Ilium.
----
* AccidentalMurder: Theodora is so proficient at this that her patron mistakenly believes she does it on purpose.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Usually depicted as purple or blue.
* AnimalMotifs: Associated with the peryton.
* AscendedExtra: Dora was a fairly minor character in Lorelei, given that she was a resident of the Feywild where the player characters spent only a short amount of time. Now, however, she has planeshifted for Ghaunadaur's purposes.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: She mostly seems like a cuteness proximity afflicted goof in the vein of Vinnie at first, but when she [[spoiler:converts Zoey and snidely takes killing Garic into her own hands]] it becomes clear that she is fearsome.
* BlackMagic: Dora's patron is the ''God of Abominations''.
* CasanovaWannabe: Is unashamed flirt, with rather ''uneven'' results.
* ChronicPetKiller: She has a history of this.
-->'''Dora:''' They're good for friends ''and'' food!
* CloudCuckooLander: For some reason, has a secret crab breeding operation.
* CoolLoser: She hangs with a crowd that is generally looked down upon in Ilium, and almost all their rivals wonder why she doesn't pick cooler allies. Or perhaps, they simply wish to bring her unique abilities over to their side.
* DoNotTauntCthulhu: She talks down to Ghaunadaur and coos at him the same way she does with everyone else, so far going unpunished.
* EyeMotifs: As her patron is a giant eyeball, Dora carries them as a symbol on her cape and as a brooch.
* TheFashionista: Sews her own clothes.
* FashionVictimVillain: In so far that Dora serves a very evil god.
* FragileSpeedster: Extremely brittle in terms of damage-taking, but relies on quick wits and pranks.
* GrotesqueCute: She tends to find things cute that others... do not, and is generally depicted by fanartists as corresponding with this trope herself.
* GuileHero: Rather good at socializing, and appears to be everyone's friend, or almost.
* ItsWhatIDo: Her response to Rolen confronting her about [[spoiler:converting Zoey]] is to proclaim that she never lied about who he was, and that he hired her ''because'' of who she was.
* MakingASplash: Dora can create water once per short rest.
* ThePrankster: Trickery is her main weapon, given that she is only four foot tall.
** DeadlyPrank: They can, sometimes, result in this...
* SuperNotDrowningSkills: Nixies are effectively amphibian, though they are humanoid.
* SwampsAreEvil: Given that Welch lived there, that forest cops were required, and taking into account Dora's penchant for murder...
* TeamPet: Owns the snapping turtle who inspired the Avant Guards' symbol.
* TechnicallyNakedShapeshifter: When Dora evaporates into mist, her clothes and everything she carries evaporate with her.
* TricksterArchetype: Trickster is the actual name of her custom class.
* WillingChanneler: Dora does Ghaunadaur's bidding, and in exchange he grants her full time use of a range of supernatural powers.
* WowingCthulhu: When she sacrifices [[spoiler:her crabs rather than a more sapient being, as she has referred to them as her friends before,]] to Ghaunadaur, he is flummoxed and slightly admirative.

Zoey is a 19/7 year old neutral good runaway trying to become the very best magic user that ever was, and heads into Ilium hoping to find something new.

----
* AlwaysSecondBest: After Zoey thought she was rid of Stellarosa, she acquires a doppelganger with less unpredictable powers.
* AnimalMotifs: Compared to the Rust Monster, due to her perceiving herself as ruining everything she touches.
* AudienceSurrogate: Zoey is the newcomer, and the character with the most easily relatable personal struggle.
* [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Sister Instinct:]] Though Claire-Elise is technically her shadow, Zoey is reluctant to harm her and regards her as a person in her own right. Affection builds between the two, reaching a mutual protectiveness best exemplified with [[spoiler:the conversion scene.]]
* BindleStick: Carries one as she crosses the light barrier into Ilium.
* BratsWithSlingshots: Her weapon of choice.
* BrattyHalfPint: While she really ought to have outgrown this behavior, Zoey knows she can use her childlike appearance to get away with doing almost whatever she likes.
* CainAndAbel: Has this twice over.
** She exists in continuous resentment to her much more successful sister Stellarosa, who also ends up [[spoiler:serving a major antagonist of the story.]]
** After Zoey obtains a shadow twin in the form of Claire-Elise - who is also more successful than her, though only in the short term - she is commanded by Lady Nym to assassinate her.[[spoiler:In the end, she refuses to.]]
* CosmicChewtoy: Fate tends to pile it onto Zoey, visually exemplified no more clearly than when a rain cloud literally follows her around. She is effectively the Drop of season 3.
* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler:Zoey makes a deal with Ghaunadaur to learn Lady Nym's name to spare Claire-Elise the pain of doing so.]]
* DeliberatelyCuteChild: This is part of her background bonus, meaning that people are less likely to tell her off.
* EveryonesBabySister: While she looks older than she is, she actually is younger than any other person in the party. Rolen is immediately protective of her, while Dora is just happy to meet someone almost as short as herself.
* EvilTwin: Zoey accidentally creates a shadow of herself, which actually turns out to be not so much evil as just selfish.
* TheDeterminator: No matter how gutted and demoralized, she still keeps trying.
* LittleBitBeastly: One of her Wild Magic spells gives her a chimp tail, fitting in with the overarching Dragon Ball Z theme.
* LIsForDyslexia: Said in the first episode to have mild dyslexia.
* LivingShadow: Her wild magic creates a shadow clone of Zoey, which becomes hostile at the end of the episode.
* ManChild: It's easy to forget Zoey isn't actually seven...
* OlderThanTheyLook: Conclusively so. Due to an effect of her wild magic, Zoey appears seven though she is actually nineteen years old.
* OvernightAgeUp: [[spoiler: Her episode 16 wild magic transformation leaves her as the 19 year old - albeit high elven - version of herself.]]
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Zoey's sister Stellarosa is a prodigy with perfect control of her magic, whereas Zoey's magic has literally stunted her growth.
* ParentalNeglect: She tends to be sharply overlooked by her parents, who don't mean anything by it, but never change their behaviour either.
* PowerDyesYourHair: A bit of wild magic ends up turning her hair spiky and yellow - effectively, Super Saiyan. This quite conveniently distinguishes her from her evil double.
* PowerIncontinence: Whenever Zoey uses her magic, she is at great risk of causing harm to herself or her friends and family.
* PowerStrainBlackOut: [[spoiler: When she becomes a warlock of Ghaunadaur, she faints from the shock of it.]]
* TheRunaway: Even has a bindle.
* {{Sleepyhead}}: Her wild magic can cause her to, say, immediately pass out and smash into a vase after teleporting.
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehaviour: Chris and Austin consider the possibility of making Zoey smoke weed with Ishmael. Given the following munchies, it's implied that she totally did.
* WackyParentSeriousChild: While she and Rolen aren't related, her annoyance at his puns and him asking her to play chess with him smacks of a teenager embarrassed at her dad's pleas to spend more time with her family.
* WildMagic: There is literally no predicting how Zoey's powers will manifest. She is under X-Men rules.

--> '''Veltari:''' This is ''great''. This is great! Wonderful! I get here too late, Bumbershoot's already gone, and I'm now stuck in the city where it always rains.
Veltari is a Tiefling bard, who first appears in episode 9 taking an assignment from Count Danto to retrieve his sire Bumbershoot, or bring back the heads of those who may have harmed him.
----
* AffablyEvil: While she has an alignment of Chaotic Evil, she is shown to be quite cordial and casual when dealing with people.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: She ended up where she is largely because of prejudice based on her visible demonic heritage.
* AnimalMotifs: The manticore, due to its spikiness.
* AtLeastIAdmitIt: Really cuts into Warden Light for condemning Bumbershoot to eternal imprisonment on his sole authority, under the guise of justice.
* BadassGay: She is a hyper-aware, talented, and dangerous bard who can also charm the pants off a girl with a single bad pun.
* TheCavalry: She responds to Bumbershoot's SOS, though she may or may not be too late.
* TheCharmer: In a team of charisma based characters, she may be the strongest. Notably, she is the only one able to befriend Wulf who is otherwise suspicious of the "popo".
* EmoMusic: Laura describes this as her style.
* HyperAwareness: Has a +10 to perception rolls, which basically makes it a superpower.
* IGaveMyWord: Though she may not always be able to keep it, she always strives towards it. Whether this is out of decency or career respectability is unknown.
* NobleDemon: Veltari may serve Count Danto, but in doing so she is largely kind to the vulnerable, and bound to her word.
* MidSeasonTwist: Her first appearance marks the first mid-season appearance of a new player, as well as the first mid-season departure of a player.
* TheMole: Due to her occupation, she finds infiltrating various organisations and buildings to be fairly easy in spite of the suspicion towards Tieflings.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Cannot be bothered to care of the why and how of her assignments, so long as she gets paid and fed. Or so she claims.
* RebelliousSpirit: Intensely averse to Warden Light's brand of evangelical authority, or really any authority or aspect of righteousness.
* TheRockStar: She largely evokes this aesthetic, and gets very excited at the idea of having a band in Ilium, even giving a concert with Zoey at the Lilies' bar.
* TheUnfettered: In general, has no scruples about getting missions done. Her relentless repetition of "Where is Bumbershoot?" illustrates that.
* StreetMusician: Veltari started out this way, as a means of scratching out a living.

!!!Non Player Characters
[[folder:Warden Light]]
An angel dedicated to the Triad who entered Ilium long ago, he offers bounties for the capture and delivery of select wrongdoers, rarely interfering with the Lilies gang.
----
* ChromeChampion: His skin is cited as looking this way.
* FallenAngel: It's rather vague what consequences he suffered, but he cites his response to Lucas' prayers as being an "egregious breach of protocol", given Lucas did not pray to the Triad.
* HangingJudge: He is judge jury and executioner on anyone he considers a wrongdoer.
* KnightInSourArmor: Light enforces the principles of the Triad within Ilium, and attempts to reform criminals in doing so, but does not have great faith in this ever succeeding.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Light once asked Lady Nim for an amnesia spell to forget his husband and the grief his death caused. [[spoiler: It is likely he actually erased a secret surrounding the barrier.]]
* MayFlyDecemberRomance: He once was married to a Lucas Rosemary, a gnome, and therefore a mortal. Lucas died not too long after they entered Ilium together.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Winifred]]
A phlumph who serves as secretary to the Avant Guards.

* TeamMom: He's very concerned with keeping everyone fed and well.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Claire-Elise Legrand]]
A double of Zoey's created through wild magic, whom she has a tumultuous relationship with.
----
* BrattyHalfPint: She's a troublesome girl, explained by her being overshadowed not by one but two sisters, unlike Zoey.
* GreenEyedMonster: She is a construct based on jealousy, and her initial drive was to replace Zoey.
* ShadowArchetype: Quite literally. Claire-Elise is driven by the impulsiveness and envy that lie in Zoey's heart, and tends to take the bad directions that Zoey doesn't, and lacking her altruism.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Garic The Great]]
An enigmatic masked figure who known seem to know of in Ilium.
----
* AnIcePerson: Garic is empowered by the [[spoiler:First Snowflake, offered by the God of Winter.]]
* DiscOneFinalBoss: If we take the previous seasons as indication, Garic [[spoiler:dies]] at the exact midpoint.
* MalevolentMaskedMen: He is described as similar to Tuxedo Mask, and while he believes himself to be good, the Avant Guards unilaterally disagree.
* VigilanteMan: He takes justice into his own hands in Ilium, in sometimes arbitrary ways, prompting the Avant Guards to set on his trail after the murder of Lyra.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Lady Nim]]
The fiendish head of the Lilies
----
* BadBoss: She is both an example, given her interactions with Carrie, and a victim given her own superior.
* IKnowYourTrueName: Zoey uses this against her, pronouncing [[spoiler:Baraquiel to defeat her.]]
* PetTheDog: She mentions feeling sympathy for Light's immortal grief, and does not mention asking for anything in exchange for the amnesia spell he asked her.
* SurroundedByIdiots: Reacts this way when Zoey comes to her asking for a weapon to kill [[spoiler:Claire-Elise.]]

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Alice Hawthorne]]
An old lady who keeps a household of skeletons for sole company since the death of her husband Max.
----
* BadWithTheBone: She is an osteomancer.
* CoolOldLady: An exceedingly powerful magician, who is also much more accommodating than she really ought to be towards her constant intruders.
* SuicideMission: Once Alice meets with her husband again, she decides [[spoiler:she spend the rest of her life with him, even if that means she has to let Light lock her in the mirror prison.]]

* GoneHorriblyWrong: A science experiment lead to Robin turning into an Ooze, and while he can reshape himself to look however he wants, he is still rather unstable.

[[caption-width-right:350:Anne and Marshmallow by [[https://twitter.com/@piripipi007 Becky C]] ]]
A dimwitted cleric of Avandra, goddess of travel, luck, trade, and travel. Loves cuddling animals.

* {{Asexual}}: Confirmed in episode 31.
* BondCreatures: Avandra blesses her cleric with Marshmallow the dire ferret.
* {{CatchPhrase}}: "Hi, I'm Anne!"
* ChurchMilitant: Anne sees herself as this to the church of Avandra, although it is unclear if she is actually carrying out the will of the faith, or just overly eager and violent.
* CloudCuckooLander
* CombatPragmatist: Anne can hold her own in a fight, but once she runs out of spells, she sees no shame in running for the hills.
* CriticalFailure: Anne only exists because of a mathematically improbable triple (!) botch during character creation, which left her with a 3 in Intelligence. As a result, she is literally dumber than a severed zombie hand, in game-terms.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Acts like a little child, but can do surprisingly powerful or violent things.
-->'''Austin:''' [[GroinAttack Anne punches Rinaldo in the balls.]]
-->'''Austin:''' Anne punches Gillet in the balls.
* TheDitz: Adorably so. She has a lot of ability as a cleric, but her holy item is a teddy bear and she went to pet Jayne's dire wolf form after said wolf had mercilessly slaughtered a group of attackers and had one of their arms hanging out her mouth.
** The hosts occasionally indulge in a game they call "Is it smarter than Anne?" (spoiler: It's nearly always smarter).
* {{Expy}}: Anne was originally based on Joseph Joestar from JoJosBizarreAdventure, but her low intelligence score keeps her from being a carbon copy.
* FatalFlaw: Her abysmal intelligence score makes every problem the party faces infinitely worse.
* GeniusDitz: Is quite a powerful cleric and can understand a lot of things, however her ditzy side stops her from communicating this to the rest of the team.
* HeroesLoveDogs: Loves to cuddle Jayne in her Dire Wolf form.

* HeroicBSOD: Anne is usually pretty unflappable, since she can't actually analyze her circumstances, but [[spoiler:she is genuinely perturbed after Rinaldo tells her he killed Jane.]]
* {{Keet}}: And how!
* LoyalAnimalCompanion: Austin reveals that he multi-classed Anne into a Ranger specifically so he could gain a dire ferret.
* TheMedic: In addition to healing magic, Anne is proficient in medicine and tries to help the injured quarry workers in The Church with her training.
* MyHovercraftIsFullOfEels: Can speak a number of different languages, however her intelligence (or lack of) tends to get in the way.
-->'''Austin:''' She has a hard time remembering what the Abyssal word for 'Yes' is, so she says "Verily?"
* TheNicknamer: Anne gets creative with her appellations for a monk named Milo, including "Musclebro Hardbody" and "Senator Suckshit."
* NoIndoorVoice
* NonSequitur: The master.
* PhraseCatcher:
-->'''Austin:''' No one can kill Anne!
* PsychopathicManChild: Is surprisingly dark for someone so adorable.
-->'''Austin:''' (On using Thaumaturgy) Anne is going to make her eyes blood red, as if they had been scooped out and both of her sockets filled with blood, and she's going to ''stare at him.''
--> '''Austin:''' She is also going to make her voice boom up to three times as far as normal and she's going to yell, in Abyssal, the language of demons, "Hi! I'm Anne!"
* PyroManiac: Likes to set things on fire. Preferably green fire.
-->'''Austin:''' [''in an innocent voice''] I just want to set things on fire...
* SuperEmpowering / PowersArePrograms: Can bless people with bits of her power (also likes to do this to Rinaldo by touching his butt).
* SupernaturalIsPurple / PurpleIsPowerful: Likes turning things purple with her Thaumaturgy.
* {{Troll}}: Turning things purple is her favorite method of trolling.
* WhiteMage: As the party's cleric, Anne is responsible for most of the healing.
* [[ManChild Woman Child]]: To the point where Austin had to clarify on Twitter that Anne is an adult.

[[caption-width-right:350:Jayne the human druid by [[https://twitter.com/@piripipi007 Becky C]] ]]
Jayne is a druid mage, who ran away from a scam sect built by her family.

* ActionGirl: She's largely the muscle of the group due to her ability to morph into a direwolf.
* BlondesAreEvil: Or just cranky, it seems. [[spoiler: Until she sells Rinaldo into sex slavery to protect her secrets.]]
* CloudCuckooLandersMinder: Especially when it comes to Anne.
* [[spoiler:DeaderThanDead: Jayne makes a ghost appearance, only for her soul to be slowly faded out of existence by Gorfinax.]]
* DefectorFromDecadence: Jayne ran away from her corrupt family of clerics and their hypocritical obsession with material gain.
* DireBeast: Can turn into a dire wolf at will, often with bloody consequences.
* {{Druid}}: Jayne is a Circle Of The Moon Druid, which makes her a formidable {{shapeshifter}}.
* FakingTheDead: Jayne was caught attempting to flee the druid sect, but fell off a cliff into a river in the pursuit. Her family assumed her dead, which Jayne was perfectly content with. So much so that she would do ''anything'' to keep them from finding out the truth.
* [[spoiler: FalseFriend / FindingJudas: Turned out to be a traitor to Anne and Rinaldo and tried to sell Rinaldo to a brothel.]]
* HealingHands: Tries to do a medicine check on the mayor after ''Anne punches him in the balls.''
* IceQueen: Jayne's demeanor is guarded at best, and at worst deeply hostile to her companions.
* LadyDrunk: Her first action in the campaign was to buy rounds for an entire bar and to get tipsy. Jess notes that she's actually a teetotaler in real life.
* OnlySaneMan: Has to jump in often to stop Anne and Rinaldo from getting themselves into even deeper trouble than normal.
* PetTheDog: Jayne can be quite cuddly with Anne from time to time, and even [[spoiler:decides to exclude Anne from her plan to betray the other player characters, even if it puts her anonymity at risk.]]
* RunawayFiance: Jayne had been in an arranged marriage with a wealthy member of a cleric family, and wished to escape this.
* {{Shapeshifting}}: She has transformed into a dire wolf, horse, and cat.
* WillNotTellALie: Hates telling lies, even if it is a necessity, and will then disclose the truth when it is safe to do so.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: She collaborates with the others [[spoiler:up until episode 19]] but she really, deeply loathes Rinaldo. This is possibly due to his charlatan nature and mercenary approach to life, as Jayne came to hate these aspects of her own family.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: She left her circle because they'd turned into greedy crooks, and her parents planned to marry her off to the most profitable suitor.
* [[spoiler: YourHeadASplode / OffWithHisHead: How she dies, delivered by Rinaldo with a morningstar, during his NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.]]

A half elf rogue who replaced Jayne after her... ''untimely'' [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown death]].

* ActionSurvivor: Allana isn't exactly blessed in the physical prowess department, so to start out with, she avoids attacking anyone head on and clings on for dear life, scare out of her mind through every fight.
* {{Claustrophobia}}: Reversed. Allana is actually comforted by small spaces, and likes to hide herself in them.
* DeadpanSnarker: This is hardly notable in this campaign, but one of the first bits of dialogue from her stands out.
-->'''Rinaldo:''' Hi. I'm bleeding to death.
-->'''Allana:''' I bet you say that to all the pretty girls.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Sure, it's probably safe to start banging evil artifacts together, Allana.
* FatalFlaw: Her impulsiveness gets her involved with the party, as well as ultimately deciding their fate.
* LoyalAnimalCompanion: Allana has a mouse, creatively named Squeak.
* TheOldestProfession: A prostitute who joins the team after they set fire to her red light house.
* [[spoiler:MikeNelsonDestroyerofWorlds: In the finale, she stabs the Orb with the Fang, summoning Gorfinax, which is what they'd spent the entire campaign trying to avoid.]]
* StreetUrchin: Her generic 5th edition background is called this.
* ATragedyOfImpulsiveness: Austin points this out as Allanas fatal flaw.
* UnproblematicProstitution: Well, unproblematic for ''her''. She defends her choice of living to Rinaldo as one she likes. However, given Rinaldo at that point has nearly been sold into sexual slavery, he would likely not consider the institution of sex work to be unproblematic.

Rinaldo is a human fighter, defined by his excellent stats yet inordinately poor luck.

* BadLiar: Rinaldo has a sky-high Charisma score, yet always seems to fail every check related to lying. This culminates in a lie so bad that the episode was entitled "Lie Hard."
* BoringButPractical: As a fighter, Rinaldo just hits things. Leon laments this simplicity at first, but changes his tune once he realizes how complicated spellcasting classes are.
* {{Catchphrase}}: "No one can kill Rinaldo!"
* CharmPerson: Has the ability to charm anyone with a wink. He even reduced a gate guard into questioning his own sexuality.
* ConMan: Rinaldo is a charlatan. This gives him a disguise and false identity, not that it helps much.
* DualWielding: Rinaldo dual wields morningstars. While this would normally be illegal in 5th Edition D&D without the Dual Wielding Feat, Leon uses the stats of a weaker weapon to allow for it.
* DumbMuscle: As the party's figher, this is Rinaldo's role, although his frequently poor dice rolls make it easy to forget.
* EnemiesList: It turns out that [[spoiler: he was making one, and Anne was on it.]]
* {{Expy}}: Of ZorroTheGayBlade.
* FatalFlaw: Rinaldo always looks out for himself, even when a little self-sacrifice would be immensely helpful.
* HandsomeLech: When he is not using his charm, he is not the most useful character on the team.
* MarkOfShame: [[spoiler: Anne scars his face with her hand-print in punishment for killing Jayne.]]
* UnderestimatingBadassery:
-->'''Austin:''' It's going to come as a surprise to all our listeners who aren't reading the character sheets I've put up on my Patreon because wow, Rinaldo's kind of a badass.

!!(Johnny Maloney)
* BestServedCold: Facetiously declares during the Lorelei campaign that he's been waiting for Austin to give extended flavour text so he could either interrupt or ignore it, to get back at his and Leon's shenanigans.
* CloudCuckooLander: For anyone who follows Word Funk, this should not be remotely surprising.
* CreepyAwesome: Seems to take a peculiar delight in describing the effects of Gorfinax's slow awakening.
* DreamSequence: Makes a lot of use of these to guide the player characters along the way, and update them on offstage events.
* TheFaceless: Being the DM, he doesn't have a character to put a face to.
* PungeonMaster: As it is ''Johnny'', these come quite often.

* HeroWithBadPublicity: [[spoiler: The heroes believe him to be a worshipper of Gorfinax, when it's revealed he was actually working to prevent his rise to power.]]
* IdleRich: The people of Stoneroot eventually accuse him of this once the violence and misery becomes too much.
* OffingTheOffspring: The heroes come to suspect he's offering his own sons as sacrifices to Gorfinax, [[spoiler:but it turns out the "sons" are more like clones of himself, and the sacrifices take their future potential rather than their lives.]]
* PurposeDrivenImmortality: [[spoiler: Earlin has spent all six hundred years of his life trying to end Gorfinax.]]
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: [[spoiler: Six hundred, actually. He has no idea why, but suspects his existence might have been linked to Gorfinax's when he first encountered it underground.]]
* RedHerring: We're lead to believe Earlin is involved in evil cult shenanigans when [[spoiler:Lonnegan was the fanatic all along.]]
* TrulySingleParent: [[spoiler:He produced Julick on his own, for lack of a better term. He's the last of many sons that serve as clones.]]

Violet (or to call her by her full non-canon name, Violet Skittles Unicorn), is a barbarian sailor unicorn. She starts the campaign out kidnapped by a bullywug.

* AllGirlsLikePonies: Lavinia immediately takes a shine to her, which is only furthered when Violet saves her in episode three.
* AmazonianBeauty: [[spoiler:Once she turns into a human.]]
* AmbiguousInnocence: Violet has a ''serious'' violent streak.
-->'''Austin:''' Leon, I think we need to have a discussion about Violet's alignment.
* BackToBackBadasses: In the double duel against the orcs, Violet fights with Drop at her side, even performing some impressive cooperative kills.
* BeautyEqualsGoodness: One of her less pleasant traits is to assume anything ugly is hostile.
* [[TheBigGuy The Big Girl]]: She is by far the most solid of the player characters. Her occasional complaints about damage tend to irk other more... ''delicate'' members of the team.
--> '''[[GlassCannon Alias:]]''' Oh, poor meat woman with her 49 hitpoints...
* BuddyCopShow: She seems to believe she is on one with the modron Swift Justice.
* CaptainCrash: While Violet is usually a snappy driver, she flubs her most crucial ship landing [[spoiler:on the Autumn Palace in the Fey Wild.]]
* CrushBlush: Has one in episode 29 for Drop. She also seems to value his safety and friendship over other members of the party, and certainly over the NPCs.
* CuteAndPsycho: To the point where Vinnie makes it a point of telling her not to murder her entire family.
-->'''Lavinia:''' Just don't attack anyone cause they're petting you, okay?
-->'''Violet:''' I'll try. I get really angry for no reason sometimes.
-->'''Lavinia:''' Oh my gosh Violet, if you kill my family-!
-->'''Violet:''' There is a deep and powerful darkness inside me that sometimes bubbles to the surface in ways that cannot be explained by mere mortals. [[MoodWhiplash But okay !]]
* DraggedOffToHell: In the cliffhanger of episode 34, Violet fails a wisdom roll to resist the call of the hell portal. [[spoiler:Then she rages.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Violet is introduced in a cage. Her first roll is to kick the door. Her natural 20 rips the hinges off and incapacitates her captor.
* ExtremeOmnivore: As mentioned below, she ate half a crystal, successfully breaking it with her teeth.
* HumanityEnsues: [[spoiler:After Violet dies at Swift Justice's hands, Vinnie sells her broken horn to the witch Blue Welch in exchange for a reincarnation spell, and she comes back as a rather confused and sad human.]]
* InnocentBigot: Violet isn't quite aware she's doing it, but she's very proud of her unicorn-ness, to the point of implicitly believing in her superiority.
* KillerRabbit: Anyone who underestimates Violet based on her enchanting appearance and tries to take advantage of her... [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice tends to regret it.]]
* LeeroyJenkins: Tends to stab first, ask questions never.
* LethalJokeCharacter: Much to Austin's annoyance. While Violet is strong, her stats aren't that impressive. The lethal aspect comes with the ridiculously good rolls she's introduced with.
* MushroomSamba: Narrowly averted with a few good rolls after she eats half of a crystal from a weird pocket dimension in episode 9. Then, immediately after, Shitty Geoff gets her drunk.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Says this almost word for word after her frenzy at the orc camp.
* NaiveNewcomer: She's unfamiliar with the customs of the material plane.
* NonstandardCharacterDesign: Unicorns definitely aren't a playable race in the handbook.
* PetTheDog: In spite of being a rather selfish and volatile character, Violet is genuinely distressed over [[spoiler:Drop "falling" overboard from the Violet 1, and upon finding him again, gives him a hug that nearly tramples him.]]
* RapunzelHair: Has a rather impressive rainbow mane [[spoiler: which she keeps as a human.]]
* OddCouple: Forms a LawfulStupidChaoticStupid double act with Swift Justice, a modron obsessed with stopping crime who is a walking talking reference to the Saints Row 3 episode of Monster Factory.
* SanitySlippage: The longer Violet stays in the Prime Material Plane, the more stab happy she becomes.
* ScreamingWarrior: In episode 35, she does this while activating her rage powers.
* SenselessSacrifice: She attempts to catch [[spoiler:Drop]] as he falls from the sky, knowing that it would not save him and would certainly kill her.
* StrangerInAFamiliarLand: Violet becomes quite upset upon approaching their destination in the Fey Wilds, as she believes her family will not accept her given the ways the Prime Material Plane has changed her.
* UnstoppableRage: This is actually an ability of Violet's, which prevents her from being charmed or persuaded from her chosen course of action.
* YouKilledMyFather: Violet gives the final blow to [[spoiler:Welch.]]

[[caption-width-right:350:Credit to [[https://twitter.com/piripipi007 Becky C]]]]

* TheAtoner: After causing the massacre of the orc camp on the Tiger Mountains and encountering Jem, the daughter of one of the casualties, Drop eventually chooses to turn himself in [[spoiler:in order to spare Dr. Sherry, the wrongful suspect. Completing the atonement, he spares her life in spite of her protestations, leading to Vinnie being able to remove the lycanthropy curse that made her so unhappy.]]
* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: [[spoiler: In episode 14, Drop turns into a screaming punch happy murderer, with no regards to his self preservation.]]
* BerserkButton: Drop ''really'' doesn't like it when any of his new friends are in danger.
* BookDumb: Johnny likes to play this up, for example really dragging out his realization that Cyldiel is Alias' mom.
-->'''Drop:''' I'm not... good at math...
* BornUnlucky: His parents, his home, his hometown, his monk friends...
* ChekhovsGun: His bagpipes, which rarely come up otherwise, are eventually given to Vinnie after [[spoiler:she gives away her lute in order to buy Alias a new arm.]]
* CosmicPlaything: So much so that a monastery took him in and tried to help him get over his self loathing problems. He went on to draw involuntary death onto the monastery and decide it would be better for everyone if he left. It ''never'' gets better, especially since [[spoiler:his very existence has to be cancelled in order to bring back a sustainable status quo to Lorelei.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler: It's eventually revealed that the presence in Drop's head comes from an unfortunate pact his father concluded to ensure him surviving birth, his exact words being: "I will give you anything." Oops.]]
* DespairSpeech:
-->'''Drop:''' Haven't you noticed? The world is ending.
* DoomMagnet: Every single one of his carers and loved ones have died, for seemingly no reason except a possible curse.
* DreadfulMusician: Drop playing the bagpipes is a ''very'' bad thing. The players theorize that everytime Drop plays, the ocean level rises.
* TheEeyore: Drop is cited to have emotional problems due to thinking of himself as a nexus of death, and speaks in a slow distant monotone.
* FourthWallObserver: Drop is the only character who seems aware that he is in a roleplaying game.
-->'''Drop:''' Statistically speaking, I did average.
** He occasionally contaminates others:
-->'''Violet:''' Hey Drop, you look different. Why?
-->'''Drop:''' I gained a level.
-->'''Violet:''' Solid! Me too. Horse five!
-->'''Austin:''' I hate you.
* GallowsHumor: Drop has developed a very deadpan version of this, and certainly no one can blame him.
* GuardianEntity: Drop discovered in episode 8 that a strange voice lives in his head and occasionally gives him advice. Whether or not it actually wishes him well is up to debate, given Drop has lived surrounded by death.
* HeroicBSOD: His freak out in episode 14 solidifies as this in the ending, with the speech he gives in his dream.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: He is the only character who's erased completely from existence by Lavinia's geas to remove all of Zavala's interventions in Lorelei in the past decades. The Blackhearts live until their murder at the hands of Swift Justice, and Lavinia still exists in her initial human form.]]
* TheHermit: For ''very'' good reason.
* IconicOutfit: Drop has the most vague description of any of the characters, even his being Tethyrian is little indication, as the culture is a melting pot. And yet, his fanart depictions are almost always of a fit young man with brown skin, a blue tunic and a ponytail + undercut. It has been remarked upon many times that Fanon!Drop looks remarkably like [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Sokka]]. Now, the combination of the shaved sides and Pimp Coat of Corellon have lead to frequent Macklemore comparisons.
* KungFuWizard: Starting level 6, his fists deal actual magic damage.
* LivingEmotionalCrutch: While his relationship to the three others is far from harmonious, he seems to have gotten used to their presence as a rare constant, and as such is very ''reluctant'' to see them come to harm.
* MadeOfIron: At level 6, he has both a ridiculously high AC and accelerated healing ability, which makes him very durable, even though his hitpoints aren't the highest in the party.
* MartialMedic: Drop, while not a magical healer, is very competent in medicine.
--> '''Drop:''' I'm the hottest nurse!
* MrFanservice: It is a running gag that in spite of his turtle personality, he has the body of a Greek god.
* NoodleIncident: The freak cart accident, the laundry incident, the banana peel prank that should have been very funny, and more.
* PetTheDog: Though his usual apathy and cynicism hides it, Drop "drops" frequent hints that his friends mean a lot to him, such as his existential panic when their lives are threatened, his carrying [[spoiler:Violet's]] unconscious body all alone to the ship, screaming all the way, and actually showing some emotional support [[spoiler:to Alias when he is wounded,]] and given his own chronic emotional problems, acquiring the ability to do this is quite a milestone.
-->'''Drop:''' I have to protect my home.
** Additionally, his immediate care and reassurance towards the gnome prisoners is especially endearing.
** While Drop and Vinnie's relationship has been tense to say the least, he still takes into account her feelings when choosing how to deal with [[spoiler:Jem]], eventually electing to give them another chance whether they want it or not.
* RetGone: [[spoiler:Less extreme than some examples, but still: by the end of the campaign, Drop is a nameless stillborn. He may have existed a brief moment, but never as the person we came to know him as.]]
* OnlySaneMan: While Drop isn't necessarily stable, or in possession of a productive mindset, Drop has the highest wisdom so he's often the most aware of his surroundings. In spite of what he lacks in intelligence, during later episodes Alias and Drop consult a lot as co-only sane men.
* SadClown: Drop has developed something of a joyless observational sense of humour, which would probably be a great hit as a stand up show, but as an adventurer is mostly a little offputting to his companions.
* SanitySlippage: Jesus ''Christ'', does he have one. In episode 14 [[spoiler:Drop enters a violent and near suicidal frenzy at the Orc camp.]]
* SexGod: Johnny repeats a theory from Twitter that suggests Drop might cause death to those around him because of his being Drop Dead Sexy. This delightful theory seems to now be canon, as Violet pretexts wanting to know what human bellybuttons look like to get his shirt off. Lavinia whoops at this, and tells him to take the shirt back off afterwards.
* TookALevelInJerkass: After stabilizing from his freakout in episode 14, Drop is a lot more aggressive and inconsiderate towards the people around him, in particular towards Vinnie. This, however, is a case of one step back two steps forward, as in the long term he becomes a more stable and altruistic person.
* TheToothHurts: The harpoon that pierces his cheek also shatters several of his teeth.
* [[WhenSheSmiles When He Smiles]]: Smiles for the very first time in the adventure in episode 36, while reconciling with his mentor Sheithayne. In typical Drop fashion, it immediately hurts him because of his battle injury.
* WorthyOpponent: Tusk declares that he respects Drop's abilities so much, he wants them both to survive the endgame so they can fight to the death together. This flatters Drop so much he is moved to tears, and then [[HoYay they go have hotdogs together.]]

A dryad bard. Once a human, she was brought back to life by the goddess Ehlonna after dying to defend a sacred tree in her natal village.

* AccidentalPervert: Once she has access to a language spell and is able to communicate with Ziggy the bullywug, he admits he was confused whether she was being friendly or attempting to engage in a bullywug mating ritual.
* ActionDad: Her bird dad K is buff, and described as if Solid Snake and Arnold Schwarzenegger were fused together.
* AffectionateNickname: Joan the Drow calls Vinnie "little leaf".
* AllLovingHero: Lavinia has a noted reputation for trying to befriend every hostile she meets, and usually succeeding. Her platonic conquests to date include the bullywug Ziggy Ribbits, two orcs, and a spectator.
* AndNowYouMustMarryMe: A rather creepy implication of [[spoiler:the ring shaped mark left on alternate timeline Vinnie's finger by Zavala,]] though it's possible it may signify ownership in a more general sense rather than literal engagement. Which is. Well. Quite a bit creepier.
* AuthorAvatar: Austin accuses Lauren of playing a cooler version of herself. She does not deny it.
* BadassPacifist: She has an ''amazing'' skill at turning the crew's enemies into allies, managing to turn those that the others would call hopelessly hostile to her side of the story. Jem tries to turn her away from this path, but [[spoiler:as their relationship doesn't last long, neither does her influence.]]
* TheBard: Her character class.
* BerserkButton: While Lavinia tends to befriend everyone and anyone, Sheithayne's perceived religious hypocrisy and guilting Drop for saving his own life is enough to set her off.
* BiTheWay: Cheers on Drop to take off his shirt, and [[spoiler: shares a kiss with the half-orc Jem.]]
* ChristianRock: As a religiously devout bard, it seems she is the fantasy equivalent of a Christian rock star.
* CovertPervert: Beyond her occasional ogling, Austin reminds the group that dryads are naturally very horny.
* CuteClumsyGirl: A short, chubby, clumsy dryad. As drawn by her player, she is indeed quite adorable. In the anime tradition of cute clumsy girls, she is also a bit of a crybaby.
-->'''Austin''': This character is [[Manga/SailorMoon Usagi]] as fuck!
* [[spoiler: DeadAllAlong: Though she may believe she is the Lavinia raised by Moreno and K, it is confirmed repeatedly that she is merely a confused tree spirit occupying Lavinia's old mutated body. Drop reveals this rather indelicately to K, who does not take it well.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: The human Lavinia, upon being murdered by an enraged Sherry while guarding the tree, was approached by [[spoiler:Zavala]] who gave her new life as a dryad, taking her human skin as payment.
** [[spoiler:The dryad Lavinia, upon meeting Zavala, makes the geas to annul all other geas's. She gives away a finger, so that Zavala will not have touched Lorelei for as long as she has lived. In this new timeline, she remains human.]]
-->'''Vinnie:''' I'll give you anything.
* FolkHero: Her origin story, as her recent transformation brought her a degree of infamy.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Though this can translate to some creeper tendencies.
-->'''Lavinia''': You're such a pretty horse!
** She is best friends with the nameless bullywug mage, and befriends Joan the Drow.
* GlurgeAddict: Ehlonna herself could not stop her from cooing.
* GuileHero: She is already firmly cemented as this by the time she [[spoiler:stops Hunter and the Kuo-Toa from taking the Violet 1 crew hostage]] just by talking it out.
* [[HasTwoMommies Has Two Dads]]: Two adoptive anthropomorphic bird dads, no less.
* HealingHands: She seems to approach each challenge by running towards it while casting Cure Wounds.
* TheHeart: Lavinia is by far the most moral of the main cast, and becomes emotionally distraught when faced with violence. Late in the campaign, Lauren presents an out of character ultimatum that Vinnie ''will'' leave the party if [[spoiler:they choose to commit genocide against the Kuo-Toa to save the world]].
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Lavinia seals a geas with Zavala to annul all his interventions in Lorelei in the crew's lifetime. As such, the Blackhearts never make it to Spira, Human Lavinia is never murdered, and thus Dryad Lavinia who considers herself a distinct person, never existed at all.]]
* HoistByTheirOwnPetard: A spectator turns her Dissonant Whispers against her, and leaves her temporarily desperate to escape her own body.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: The problem with befriending everyone is that it actually means everyone, so when Vinnie realizes she's going to have to introduce Ziggy and Joan to K, she panics a little.
* MarkOfTheBeast: [[spoiler:The only clue that alternative timeline Lavinia has to the events of the campaign is the mark on her finger.]]
* NeutralFemale: Vinnie rarely fights in the conventional sense, and often takes a step back in battles to take care of diplomacy. This is hardly a case of gender stereotyping, given that Violet, and in season 1 Jayne and Anne are all very bloodthirsty women.
* ThePollyanna: Has a tendency to think very well of people she's only just met, and to support them morally through the gift of leaves.
-->'''Jem:''' You had your throat slit.
-->'''Vinnie:''' Yep. And I turned it around and made it a positive situation.
* QuirkyCurls: Her mane of leaves seems to mimic this.
* ShipperOnDeck: She seems very interested in the going-ons between Alias and Amber/Joan. And Sherry and Amber/Joan. She's just really invested in Joan's love life, okay?
-->'''Vinnie:''' Joan, I wanna do something to you, okay?
-->'''Joan:''' [LAUGHS UPROARIOUSLY IN RUSSIAN]
* SongParody: All of her bard tunes are real-world songs with the lyrics swapped out to fit the world of D&D.
* TomatoInTheMirror: Whether or not this is true has yet to be seen, but The Voice That Lives In Drop's Head insists that the real Vinnie is dead, and the tree spirit inhabiting her body mistakenly believes it is the real Vinnie. [[spoiler: She begins to realize this is the case after the fight with the spectator.]]
* TomboyishName: Her nickname is Vinnie.
* WideEyedIdealist: She really dislikes hurting people, to the point of not interfering much in many battles.
* WhipItGood: Her main physical weapon is a vine from her sacred tree, wielded like a whip. It helps that it is covered in thorns.
* WhodunnitToMe: Hilariously averted, when Dr. Sherry the gnoll wonders out loud if Vinnie is the woman she murdered, while Vinnie cringes and pretends not to be there because she doesn't want to deal with this situation.

[[folder: Alias]]
!!Michael "Skitch" Schiciano
-->'''Alias:''' Actually Violet, I have an equally important task for you that does not involve smashing anything. Except smashing us all with knowledge.

[[quoteright:340:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c0vak4yviaaec34.jpg]]

Alias is an Eladrin rogue far traveller. And it's actually pronounced "El-lee-us", by the way.

* AccidentalMurder: Due to an unwanted crit, Alias winds up easily dispatching Guy when the plan was to throw the battle.
* AffectionateNickname: Joan calls him "little book boy". Nicknames are kind of [[TheNicknamer her thing]].
* AnArmAndALeg: [[spoiler: After his arm is wounded with black amber, Welch downright ''explodes'' his arm off, only to grow a new unwounded one.]]
* AnimalMotifs: The magpie, of course.
* AwesomeButImpractical: His tendencies for showy moves are best represented in episode 34, when Drop is dropped (aha) through the air, and Alias fey steps part of the way up, casts Tenser's Floating Disk above himself to reduce Drop's fall, then falls back to the ground.
-->'''Johnny:''' I also can fey step too. So... not much of that was necessary.
-->'''Skitch:''' Here's the thing: you get to land standing on top of a planar force that makes it look like you're floating with nothing underneath you. You should take that offer, dude. It's the most anime thing you can do, right now.
* BadassBookworm: Alias is a very impressive wizard for a beginner, and in spite of having a rather polite and discrete personality, has a tendency to be flashier in combat that entirely necessary - also while playing cards.
* BreakTheCutie: Alias' morale is at an all time low during episode 27, where he admits that he might not the right man for the situation. [[spoiler: This only increases when at the end of the episode, he is mortally wounded, and Vinnie and Drop both pay a dear price to heal him, setting the stage for a rising level of guilt and insecurity.]]
* CityMouse: He gets very unhappy when nature is uncooperative, especially when it affects his appearance.
* DavidVersusGoliath: Enters a one-on-one duel with Guy, the orc chef/chief, although the duel was never actually meant to be deadly.
* DopeSlap: Gives Drop one when he starts disrespecting Vinnie and Violet's religion.
** And yet another to Violet, when she starts going on about how all orcs are evil while [[TokenHeroicOrc Tusk]] is present in the same room.
* EarAche: Has an earring shaped in the symbol of Corellon ripped out by an orc, and spends the episode gushing blood.
* {{Elfeminate}}: Eladrin are even elfier than their Material plane counterparts.
* EmptyEyes: These don't denote trauma, as Alias is still something of a sweet summer child, but they're actually a racial feature.
* EvilMentor: Joan teaches Alias the magic he'd envied for so long, but she also gets the party involved in some seriously questionable endeavours and suggests selling Violet early on.
* FantasticRacism: Secretly thinks Eladrin are better, and expresses disdain towards gnomes.
* GentlemanAndAScholar: Alias is both very well read and unfailingly mild mannered and pleasant, which also makes him in a literal sense, if not according to trope definition, a GentlemanWizard.
* GlassCannon: In terms of hit points, Alias is very fragile. That said, he was the last of the party to ever be K.O.
* GreenEyedMonster: A very mild example, but according to Skitch, Alias feels a little jilted by Vinnie's series of new best friends, as when they met he initially thought ''they'' were new best friends.
* HasTwoMommies: There is a glorious war of rival mothering between Cyldiel, his actual mother, and Joan, his rather fond mentor. Joan makes a joke about Alias somehow pulling a third mom out of nowhere.
* HeroicWannabe: He read about magic in the material plane, and in spite of everyone's warnings back home, thought "Why not me?" Austin jokes in episode 32 that the entire campaign was Alias' self insert fanfiction.
* IncorruptiblePurePureness: [[spoiler:Zavala]] doesn't even bother trying to seduce him into a deal, because he's just too principled and smart to take it. Solidified later on when Skitch admits that Alias has more or less completed his life goal, so there's nothing that can distract him from the righteous path.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: When on the road to get the Blackhearts, he tells Joan the following about her ex-girlfriend:
-->'''Alias:''' I'll say hi to Lita for you!
* JackOfAllTrades: By the end of the campaign, Alias has levels in Rogue, Wizard, and Fighter, effectively ending his GlassCannon status and completing his bladesinger archetype.
* OnlySaneMan: Alias appears to be the one with his mind the most focused on the task at hand.
* MommasBoy: While Alias himself doesn't correspond to this trope quite as much, on a meta level Skitch is constantly enthusing about mama Cyldiel's bladesinger abilities and stats.
* MyBelovedSmother: His mother Cyldiel is a very... ''outspoken'' woman, and had explicitly forbidden him from practicing magic. On the plus side, when Alias sent a message calling for help, [[spoiler:she came running to the material plane.]]
* NaiveNewcomer: Used what were essentially outdated textbooks as his information on the material plane before diving in.
* NiceGuy: He exists at the balance point, being more willing to draw a line between friend and foe than Lavinia, but more globally agreable - if a little awkward at times - than Drop and Violet.
* NoodlePeople: Alias starts out skinny since he's an Eladrin, and becomes even more so as the adventure goes on, K calling him tiny.
* PhraseCatcher:
-->'''Alias:''' I don't understand [the finger guns] but I like them.
* TeamMom: He is the most adapted to both taking charge and making rational decisions for the team, and comforting any team members who might need it - usually Vinnie. He even worries about how to find a positive outlet for Violet's rowdy behaviour.
* TimeDissonance: Another reason why Alias is baffled by Lavinia's platonic (and in one case romantic) conquests is his life expectancy as an Eladrin. Whereas he believes friendships should be built over decades, Lavinia is more of a LoveYouAndEverybody type for whom compassion and friendship are ultimately synonymous and quasi-instantaneous.
* TookALevelInBadass: After getting his earring torn out, he merely looks the orc responsible in the eye, and picks the earring back up.
-->'''Orc:''' Elf braver than thought!
-->'''Alias:''' I've been through a lot. Consider this a minor inconvenience.
* TheSmartGuy: Alias is by far the most bookish of the crew, and seems to be the most aware of his circumstances, outdated maps aside.
* UnfazedEveryman: Invoked when he walks in on Vinnie with her hand on Joan's face [[spoiler:because she's removing her geas to Zavala.]]
-->'''Alias:''' This is honestly not the most unusual thing I could've seen when I walked into this room. I've seen a lot of weird things on this ship.
-->'''Austin:''' [[ADateWithRosiePalms Violet acclimated to her body very quickly.]]
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: While he is a hundred years old, it's still quite young for an elf, and he show a great level of maturity and diplomacy in all situations. The flipside of this is that he is trusted with more decisions and secrets than the others, which puts an enormous amount of stress on him.
* WrongGenreSavvy: Very knowledgeable about the Material Plane... as it was thousands of years ago.

[[folder: Austin (DM)]]
!!Austin
The dungeon master for season 2.

* BenevolentBoss: Austin is a very lighthearted and friendly DM, though he is sometimes aghast at the absurd behaviour of the players. He also makes several time extensions in order to allow for [[spoiler:Violet to live.]]
* CallBack: Anne's teddy bear is stored as an artifact in the temple of Primus, and the party reads a book by [[spoiler:Jack Robertson, glorifying his defeat of Gorfinax.]]
* GagCensor: Starts employing audio versions of these in episode 2. He edits the Poke rap over any of Leon's attempts to use Violet's true name.
* KillerGameMaster: He's not turned into this yet, but has been on record saying he would make things very difficult for Leon's unicorn character, as revenge for the trolling that is her existence. [[spoiler: He gets his way eventually: he not only kills her off, but brings her back as a human.]]
* LighterAndFluffier: After the black comedy horror of season 1, he wanted to make something Film/ThePrincessBride inspired. He later describes the campaign as "a moist Undertale." That said, the campaign turns downright grisly later on.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Austin likes to have interesting NPCs from each area join the squad as NPC allies, which is also motivated by the more diplomatic player characters. The Outer Senshi of the Violet One crew includes, as of the beginning of the Cascades arc, Ziggy Ribbits, Joan, K, Tusk, Cyldiel, Isaac, Judy, and for [[GuestStarPartyMember a brief time]], Jem, Swift Justice, and Hunter.
* PoisonousFriend: Likes to encourage outlandish behaviour in the players, like, for example, egging Drop on to ''break his own ankle''. He also gets mad when everyone avoids a bear trap in episode 7.
* ShipperOnDeck: He teases Alias/Drop. Johnny and Skitch accuse him of only doing this because he is addicted to fanart.

!!!Outer Senshi
[[folder: Joan]]
!!Joan, Scion of Lolth, Protector of Black Amber
Joan is a Drow whom the party meets near Meadowlark island, and attempts to guide them towards the cause of the flooding while shielding the specifics of her agenda.

* ArtificialLimbs: Has a leg she took from a modron.
* TheAtoner: Joan believes that she and the Blackhearts caused the flooding by concluding their geas to end sacrifice, and that this can only be solved with their deaths. [[spoiler:It turns out she was right.]]
* {{Bifauxnen}}: Wears a snazzy suit.
* DarkIsNotEvil: An inevitable trope with a non-evil aligned Drow.
* DealWithTheDevil: Joan, Lita, Sherry, and Fox all wanted to live in a world without sacrifice. The wish was not granted in a satisfactory manner, to say the least.
* HeroWithAnFInGood: Joan still has some of the typical Drow social mores, though she has good intentions overall. The way she shines most as an example of this trope is no doubt [[spoiler:the fact that by concluding a geas to end sacrifice, she ended up empowering the very concept of Sacrifice beyond anything she could've imagined.]]
* NonActionSnarker: Joan is ''very'' fragile, Austin comparing her strength to that of a child with polio, but that doesn't stop her from commenting from the bench.
* TheObiWan: An odd example as she doesn't really fit the stereotypical image, but still fits the narrative role as a quest giver and mentor to Alias.
* ShelteredAristocrat: While Joan has a wide range of abilities, they aren't very in depth, and are mostly in there just for show in the higher ranks of Drow society. Which is why she surrounds herself with more powerful individuals to aid in her quest.
* WorkingWithTheEx: When the crew of the Violet One merges [[spoiler:with the crew of the Zavala]] she has an awkward meeting with [[spoiler:Lita.]]

[[folder: Ziggy]]
!!Ziggy Ribbits
Ziggy is a bullywug mage travelling under orders of the chief of Hole-in-the-earth.

* BlackMage: Mainly uses offensive magic, one of the rare bullywugs to do so, as he was instructed by Welch the Blue.
* DemonicPossession: [[spoiler: The spectator in the Cascades turns Ziggy against the party, causing him to kill himself with his own spell.]]
* LanguageBarrier: Ziggy speaks in a variety of ribbits that are not comprehensible to any member of the party until later in the campaign. This makes it harder to parse his intentions.
* PettingZooPeople: Bullywugs are in effect, anthro frogs or... anfrogs? Anthrogs? And Vinnie finds them all absolutely adorable.
* SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: When we first meet him, Ziggy has tricked Violet and taken her hostage to sell her. [[spoiler:Knowing what we later find out, it seems likely he might've actually brought her back to Welch in order for her to serve as a component in her staff.]]
* SuicideAttack: [[spoiler:He takes a bomb made by Welch into the caverns on the road to Kalopsia, that will detonate when the Drow troops approach.]]

[[folder: Sheriff K]]
!!Sheriff Keenan 'K' Bird
Vinnie's adoptive father, and one of two leaders of the cult of Ehlonna in Spira.

* BirdPeople: K is a Kenku, just like his husband Moreno. Inconveniences include being flightless and having brittle bones, positives include an ability to imitate voices to quasi perfection.
* GoodShepherd: For the most part, K is working for the good of Spira, but is also clearly concerned about expansion and financial gain for his cult.
* HollywoodActionHero: His muscular appearance and the context of his first meeting invokes this. He ends up being a precious ally to the Violet One.
* LeeroyJenkins: K has a tendency to jump to conclusions, especially where his daughter is concerned, leading to people being stuffed into barrels or thrown overboard for not much reason at all.
* PapaWolf: K's worst fear seems to be losing his daughter a second time. It is understandable that [[spoiler:Drop telling him his daughter has been dead a very long time]] would make him unhappy.

[[folder: Cyldiel]]
!!Cyldiel Valamin
Alias' mother, who stomped through the planes after receiving a letter from her son asking for assistance.

* CityMouse: Shown in her introduction to be endlessly frustrated at how uncouth the Material Plane is.
* HiddenDepths: Alias is shocked when he discovers his mother's ability for magic, given that back home, the practice of it has been severely restricted thus far.
* MagicKnight: She is, like Alias eventually becomes, a bladesinger who takes elements from three different classes.
* MamaBear: God protect those who threaten her precious boy.
* MyBelovedSmother: Alias felt restricted in the Fey Wild, and Cyldiel is indeed a bit overbearing. However, she does allow him to make his own decisions and grow as a person, and steps up to protect and comfort him as is needed.
* RetiredBadass: Finds herself sort of enjoying all the action she encounters in the Material Plane.

!!!Antagonists
[[folder: The Blackhearts]]
!!Tropes in general
* FourIsDeath: [[spoiler: The Blackhearts, including Joan, are the only major npcs to stay dead in the new timeline.]]
* MechaMooks: They control an army of stolen modrons.
* QuirkyMinibossSquad
* SkyPirates: They tool around in their stolen airship [strikethrough]The Glittergold Six[/strikethrough] The Zavala
* TerribleTrio: A bit more competant than the average. [[spoiler: Were an EliteFour when Joan was still their leader.]]
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Their deal with Zavala is what set the events of the plot in motion.

!!Lita
A kobold metalworker and craftswoman.

* AcePilot: Pilots the airship Zavala quite deftly until Violet steals the job.
* WrenchWench: She is happiest when tinkering away in her workshop on board.
* TrueSight: Her [[spoiler:geas with Zavala]] allows her to see through any magical disguise, though she sometimes doesn't realize she's seeing something different from the people around her.

!!Fox
A goblin, mute from a throat injury.

* DemonicPossession: After looking into the abyss a little too long, Fox is taken over by a devil.
* MercyKill: [[spoiler:Alias cuts his throat before he can be dragged to hell.]]
* WoundThatWillNotHeal: The sword through his throat is coated with black amber, with makes it impossible to heal.

!!Doctor Sherry
A gnoll doctor.
----
* CombatMedic: A medic who also happens to be one of the rare practitioners of non-magical surgery in Lorelei. She was educated to become this specifically as a humiliation, as gnoll society would not consider it an honorable job.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Feels this way about Lavinia's pre-dryad murder, as she was not in control of her actions at the time.
* SouthernBelle: She has the accent, and the rather gentle disposition [[spoiler:so long as she isn't having one of her episodes.]]

[[folder: Welch the Blue]]
!!Welch the Blue
A hag manipulating various mortals of the material plane in order to obtain magical components.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Welch's [[spoiler:geas with Zavala in the penultimate episode resurrects her sisters.]]

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Is looking to exact revenge on the Archmage Council for ordering the genocide of her people.
* WitchSpecies: A hag, a malevolent magic using creature that is AlwaysFemale.

[[folder: The Voice]]
!![[spoiler:Zavala\Sacrifice]]
An bodiless entity that has followed Drop a very very long time, and occasionally speaks to him.

* AffablyEvil: Always speaks in a very jocular tone of voice and has quite candid conversations with his targets.
* AnthropomorphicPersonification: Anthropomorphic in the sense that he has a voice and a personality, less in terms of visual design. In this case, he is [[spoiler:Sacrifice.]]
* BigBad: [[spoiler:His geas with the Kuo-Toa is the cause of all the flooding.]]
* EnemyWithin: Has access to the inside of Drop's head anytime he wants as [[spoiler:Drop exists due to a geas made by his father, and is imbued with dark energy because of it.]]
* JackassGenie: [[spoiler:While he grants wishes in a twisted unfair way, he would be opposed to the term genie. A genie can be tricked by phrasing, however Zavala will go directly into the person's heart to see what their heart's deepest desire is.]]
* LeonineContract: His MO. [[spoiler:]] claims to be fair and to just take the appropriate price, but is drawn specifically to desperation.
* RestrainingBolt: [[spoiler:Prevents any of those he concludes a geas with from speaking his name.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: This cannot be stressed enough. The very concept of this character is a spoiler.

-->'''Bumbershoot:''' What are you doing in there, you busy little sausage?
[[quoteright:255:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c8bfdghumaqsgqu.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:255:By [[https://twitter.com/cosmignon Cosmignon]]]]
Viscount Bumbershoot Von Victrola is a LawfulEvil vampire from the land of Fangsylvania who has lost sight of his sire, Count Danto.

* AboveGoodAndEvil: He considers himself as such. [[BerserkButton Rolen would disagree.]]
* BunnyEarsLawyer: While he is a very goofy character, he does have an interest in astronomy that suggests he might be a little cerebral, as indicated by the astrolabes and telescopes in his room.
* CannotTellALie: This is specific to his sire, Count Danto.
* ClassyCane: Conceals an [[CaneFu actual weapon]].
* TheCharmer: He is a charisma based character, and angled towards smooth-talking. What's more, he always has advantage on persuasion.
* DayWalkingVampire: If only because Ilium functions with artificial daylight, produced magically, that contains no UVs.
* DoomedHometown: Fangsylvania was burned to the ground by a vampire hunter called Raven Stern.
* EvilIsPetty: Bumbershoot has a tendency to hold grudges against those who offend him, whether the insult is intentional or not. Being petty might be a good way to rationalize murdering a minimum of one person a week...
* GothicHorror: He is very faithful to this aesthetic, to the point of redecorating his bedroom door at the Avant Guards' office.
* HighClassGlass: Wears a monocle to complete his very fancy look. Goes with his mustache.
* HorrorHunger: Bumbershoot has no moral qualms about his station, but the practical fact remains: if he doesn't drink from someone at the very least once a week, he will die. Played with in that he theoretically doesn't ''have'' to kill the person he feeds from, he just thinks that's what vampires are supposed to do.
* MustBeInvited: Vampire rules sadly apply to him, and he cannot enter any private dwelling without permission from one of the residents.
* OlderThanTheyLook: He was turned at 46, but is actually 104.
* PutOnABus: [[spoiler:Jailed indefinitely in a distant dimension by Warden Light, due to Leon taking a hiatus.]]
* ShapeShifting: Can become a bat, a wolf, or even mist.
* SharingABody: After a disastrous attempted feeding, Bumbershoot ends up sharing a body with the necromancer Maximilian Hawthorne.
* UpperClassTwit: Very snooty, while also being remarkably unwise.
* VampiresAreRich: Believes vampires to be the peak of high society.
* VegetarianVampire: Everyone is under the impression he gets his blood through the mail. He's actually ''quite'' murderous.
* WouldHurtAChild: His first reaction upon meeting Zoey:
--> '''Bumbleshoot:''' Oh, is it snack time already?

[[folder:Rolen Hawklight]]
!!Skitch
-->'''Rolen:''' It's not going to make more sense until it makes less sense at first.
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c8c_wyeuaaaflmj.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Art by [[https://twitter.com/cosmignon Cosmignon]]]]
Rolen Hawklight is a half-elven lawful good justiciar, raised in the Nynsun Chapel, who was a knight of the Order of the Merciful Sword, until he refused some rather unmerciful orders and was thrown out as a result. He wandered out on his own, looking for redemption, ending up in Ilium.

* AnimalMotifs: Is associated with the griffon.
* TheAtoner: He's trying to fight for good in a better way than his order did.
* CelibateHero: Rolen is more interested in embodying the virtues of the Triad than in any type of romance.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: He is a paladin with the main stat switched after all. His first action in the game is to rush Zoey away from vicious attention.
* CoolHorse: Has a warhorse named Trinity.
* CoveredWithScars: Was cruelly flogged by his own comrades when he refused to kill innocents for them.
* DefectorFromDecadence: Left his order after he was flogged for refusing to slaughter a harmless orc village.
* DorkKnight: Beyond the dorkiness that might be attributed by his lack of charisma, he delivers this humdinger after being escorted to a party by a skeleton guard:
-->'''Rolen:''' I'll have your bones to pick with your boss.
* GoodIsNotNice: While Rolen is good and knows what he's doing, his charisma score means he's not very good at advertising his particular program. That said, he does believe that individual demeanor can be a tool in maintaining morale and making life more bearable, and takes... [[PungeonMaster steps, into implementing this in his personal behaviour.]]
* GuileHero: Surprisingly, given he is a low charisma character, but he tries his hardest to unite the team through emotional means, aiming to kill their differences with kindness. For example, when he offers his shield to Zoey, and his sword to Veltari.
* HonorBeforeReason: He will never strike down an unarmed foe, no matter how evil they are.
* HurtingHero: This shows when after being faced with his worst fear of all his old companions walking under the command of Danto, he later has to isolate himself in his room to cry. And while he is perhaps too goal-oriented for friendship, there's certainly a sting in him saying he has no friends in Ilium.
* ImpossiblyTackyClothes: For the party heist, Dora makes him a very frilly shirt. Austin describes as the puffy Seinfeld shirt, whereas Lauren describes it as having a Music/{{Prince}} vibe.
* KnightErrant: His quest for redemption is certainly evocative of this archetype.
* TheLeader: Described as always pushing himself into a place of authority, even when he has no authority.
* {{Mangst}}: No more visible than when he discovers [[spoiler:the body of his old friends Warder, and concurrently the extent of the corruption in the Order.]]
* NeverHurtAnInnocent: Nor does he suffer the hurting of innocents.
* NiceGuy: Decidedly so. Unprompted, he decides to deliver Dora's crabs for her because he ruined her Prince costume, and when he meets Carrie after the party, offers her a friendly ear to vent to.
* OnlySaneMan: Rolen is the closest thing to a normal guy the player party has, as well as the closest thing to a functioning adult.
* OrphansOrdeal: Spent the largest part of his childhood in an orphanage at the Nynsun Chapel. Whatever happened to his parents is unknown.
* ThePaladin: He was almost made to have this class, due to having been part of a paladin order, but in order to balance the very charisma heavy party, Skitch went with an intelligence based character.
* PluckyComicRelief: He tries to be this, making silly puns in the hope of putting good vibes into the world.
* PurpleIsPowerful: Has purple eyes, has power.
* RealMenLoveJesus: Or rather, real men love Tyr, Ilmater, and Torm.
* TheSmartGuy: In a grand departure from the previous season, Skitch plays the brain.
* TeamDad: His initial interactions with the party, Zoey especially, point towards him being this trope.
* VigilanteMan: Enacts justice according to his own authority. He is described as "judge-like".

Dora is a chaotic neutral Nixie from the Feywild, who was sought out by the God Ghaunadaur for a special assignment in Ilium.

* AccidentalMurder: Theodora is so proficient at this that her patron mistakenly believes she does it on purpose.
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Usually depicted as purple or blue.
* AnimalMotifs: Associated with the peryton.
* AscendedExtra: Dora was a fairly minor character in Lorelei, given that she was a resident of the Feywild where the player characters spent only a short amount of time. Now, however, she has planeshifted for Ghaunadaur's purposes.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: She mostly seems like a cuteness proximity afflicted goof in the vein of Vinnie at first, but when she [[spoiler:converts Zoey and snidely takes killing Garic into her own hands]] it becomes clear that she is fearsome.
* BlackMagic: Dora's patron is the ''God of Abominations''.
* CasanovaWannabe: Is unashamed flirt, with rather ''uneven'' results.
* ChronicPetKiller: She has a history of this.
-->'''Dora:''' They're good for friends ''and'' food!
* CloudCuckooLander: For some reason, has a secret crab breeding operation.
* CoolLoser: She hangs with a crowd that is generally looked down upon in Ilium, and almost all their rivals wonder why she doesn't pick cooler allies. Or perhaps, they simply wish to bring her unique abilities over to their side.
* DoNotTauntCthulhu: She talks down to Ghaunadaur and coos at him the same way she does with everyone else, so far going unpunished.
* EyeMotifs: As her patron is a giant eyeball, Dora carries them as a symbol on her cape and as a brooch.
* TheFashionista: Sews her own clothes.
* FashionVictimVillain: In so far that Dora serves a very evil god.
* FragileSpeedster: Extremely brittle in terms of damage-taking, but relies on quick wits and pranks.
* GrotesqueCute: She tends to find things cute that others... do not, and is generally depicted by fanartists as corresponding with this trope herself.
* GuileHero: Rather good at socializing, and appears to be everyone's friend, or almost.
* ItsWhatIDo: Her response to Rolen confronting her about [[spoiler:converting Zoey]] is to proclaim that she never lied about who he was, and that he hired her ''because'' of who she was.
* MakingASplash: Dora can create water once per short rest.
* ThePrankster: Trickery is her main weapon, given that she is only four foot tall.
** DeadlyPrank: They can, sometimes, result in this...
* SuperNotDrowningSkills: Nixies are effectively amphibian, though they are humanoid.
* SwampsAreEvil: Given that Welch lived there, that forest cops were required, and taking into account Dora's penchant for murder...
* TeamPet: Owns the snapping turtle who inspired the Avant Guards' symbol.
* TechnicallyNakedShapeshifter: When Dora evaporates into mist, her clothes and everything she carries evaporate with her.
* TricksterArchetype: Trickster is the actual name of her custom class.
* WillingChanneler: Dora does Ghaunadaur's bidding, and in exchange he grants her full time use of a range of supernatural powers.
* WowingCthulhu: When she sacrifices [[spoiler:her crabs rather than a more sapient being, as she has referred to them as her friends before,]] to Ghaunadaur, he is flummoxed and slightly admirative.

Zoey is a 19/7 year old neutral good runaway trying to become the very best magic user that ever was, and heads into Ilium hoping to find something new.

* AlwaysSecondBest: After Zoey thought she was rid of Stellarosa, she acquires a doppelganger with less unpredictable powers.
* AnimalMotifs: Compared to the Rust Monster, due to her perceiving herself as ruining everything she touches.
* AudienceSurrogate: Zoey is the newcomer, and the character with the most easily relatable personal struggle.
* [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Sister Instinct:]] Though Claire-Elise is technically her shadow, Zoey is reluctant to harm her and regards her as a person in her own right. Affection builds between the two, reaching a mutual protectiveness best exemplified with [[spoiler:the conversion scene.]]
* BindleStick: Carries one as she crosses the light barrier into Ilium.
* BratsWithSlingshots: Her weapon of choice.
* BrattyHalfPint: While she really ought to have outgrown this behavior, Zoey knows she can use her childlike appearance to get away with doing almost whatever she likes.
* CainAndAbel: Has this twice over.
** She exists in continuous resentment to her much more successful sister Stellarosa, who also ends up [[spoiler:serving a major antagonist of the story.]]
** After Zoey obtains a shadow twin in the form of Claire-Elise - who is also more successful than her, though only in the short term - she is commanded by Lady Nym to assassinate her.[[spoiler:In the end, she refuses to.]]
* CosmicChewtoy: Fate tends to pile it onto Zoey, visually exemplified no more clearly than when a rain cloud literally follows her around. She is effectively the Drop of season 3.
* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler:Zoey makes a deal with Ghaunadaur to learn Lady Nym's name to spare Claire-Elise the pain of doing so.]]
* DeliberatelyCuteChild: This is part of her background bonus, meaning that people are less likely to tell her off.
* EveryonesBabySister: While she looks older than she is, she actually is younger than any other person in the party. Rolen is immediately protective of her, while Dora is just happy to meet someone almost as short as herself.
* EvilTwin: Zoey accidentally creates a shadow of herself, which actually turns out to be not so much evil as just selfish.
* TheDeterminator: No matter how gutted and demoralized, she still keeps trying.
* LittleBitBeastly: One of her Wild Magic spells gives her a chimp tail, fitting in with the overarching Dragon Ball Z theme.
* LIsForDyslexia: Said in the first episode to have mild dyslexia.
* LivingShadow: Her wild magic creates a shadow clone of Zoey, which becomes hostile at the end of the episode.
* ManChild: It's easy to forget Zoey isn't actually seven...
* OlderThanTheyLook: Conclusively so. Due to an effect of her wild magic, Zoey appears seven though she is actually nineteen years old.
* OvernightAgeUp: [[spoiler: Her episode 16 wild magic transformation leaves her as the 19 year old - albeit high elven - version of herself.]]
* OvershadowedByAwesome: Zoey's sister Stellarosa is a prodigy with perfect control of her magic, whereas Zoey's magic has literally stunted her growth.
* ParentalNeglect: She tends to be sharply overlooked by her parents, who don't mean anything by it, but never change their behaviour either.
* PowerDyesYourHair: A bit of wild magic ends up turning her hair spiky and yellow - effectively, Super Saiyan. This quite conveniently distinguishes her from her evil double.
* PowerIncontinence: Whenever Zoey uses her magic, she is at great risk of causing harm to herself or her friends and family.
* PowerStrainBlackOut: [[spoiler: When she becomes a warlock of Ghaunadaur, she faints from the shock of it.]]
* TheRunaway: Even has a bindle.
* {{Sleepyhead}}: Her wild magic can cause her to, say, immediately pass out and smash into a vase after teleporting.
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehaviour: Chris and Austin consider the possibility of making Zoey smoke weed with Ishmael. Given the following munchies, it's implied that she totally did.
* WackyParentSeriousChild: While she and Rolen aren't related, her annoyance at his puns and him asking her to play chess with him smacks of a teenager embarrassed at her dad's pleas to spend more time with her family.
* WildMagic: There is literally no predicting how Zoey's powers will manifest. She is under X-Men rules.

--> '''Veltari:''' This is ''great''. This is great! Wonderful! I get here too late, Bumbershoot's already gone, and I'm now stuck in the city where it always rains.
Veltari is a Tiefling bard, who first appears in episode 9 taking an assignment from Count Danto to retrieve his sire Bumbershoot, or bring back the heads of those who may have harmed him.

* AffablyEvil: While she has an alignment of Chaotic Evil, she is shown to be quite cordial and casual when dealing with people.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: She ended up where she is largely because of prejudice based on her visible demonic heritage.
* AnimalMotifs: The manticore, due to its spikiness.
* AtLeastIAdmitIt: Really cuts into Warden Light for condemning Bumbershoot to eternal imprisonment on his sole authority, under the guise of justice.
* BadassGay: She is a hyper-aware, talented, and dangerous bard who can also charm the pants off a girl with a single bad pun.
* TheCavalry: She responds to Bumbershoot's SOS, though she may or may not be too late.
* TheCharmer: In a team of charisma based characters, she may be the strongest. Notably, she is the only one able to befriend Wulf who is otherwise suspicious of the "popo".
* EmoMusic: Laura describes this as her style.
* HyperAwareness: Has a +10 to perception rolls, which basically makes it a superpower.
* IGaveMyWord: Though she may not always be able to keep it, she always strives towards it. Whether this is out of decency or career respectability is unknown.
* NobleDemon: Veltari may serve Count Danto, but in doing so she is largely kind to the vulnerable, and bound to her word.
* MidSeasonTwist: Her first appearance marks the first mid-season appearance of a new player, as well as the first mid-season departure of a player.
* TheMole: Due to her occupation, she finds infiltrating various organisations and buildings to be fairly easy in spite of the suspicion towards Tieflings.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Cannot be bothered to care of the why and how of her assignments, so long as she gets paid and fed. Or so she claims.
* RebelliousSpirit: Intensely averse to Warden Light's brand of evangelical authority, or really any authority or aspect of righteousness.
* TheRockStar: She largely evokes this aesthetic, and gets very excited at the idea of having a band in Ilium, even giving a concert with Zoey at the Lilies' bar.
* TheUnfettered: In general, has no scruples about getting missions done. Her relentless repetition of "Where is Bumbershoot?" illustrates that.
* StreetMusician: Veltari started out this way, as a means of scratching out a living.

!!!Non Player Characters
[[folder:Warden Light]]
An angel dedicated to the Triad who entered Ilium long ago, he offers bounties for the capture and delivery of select wrongdoers, rarely interfering with the Lilies gang.
----
* ChromeChampion: His skin is cited as looking this way.
* FallenAngel: It's rather vague what consequences he suffered, but he cites his response to Lucas' prayers as being an "egregious breach of protocol", given Lucas did not pray to the Triad.
* HangingJudge: He is judge jury and executioner on anyone he considers a wrongdoer.
* KnightInSourArmor: Light enforces the principles of the Triad within Ilium, and attempts to reform criminals in doing so, but does not have great faith in this ever succeeding.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Light once asked Lady Nim for an amnesia spell to forget his husband and the grief his death caused. [[spoiler: It is likely he actually erased a secret surrounding the barrier.]]
* MayFlyDecemberRomance: He once was married to a Lucas Rosemary, a gnome, and therefore a mortal. Lucas died not too long after they entered Ilium together.

[[folder:Winifred]]
A phlumph who serves as secretary to the Avant Guards.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Claire-Elise Legrand]]
A double of Zoey's created through wild magic, whom she has a tumultuous relationship with.

* BrattyHalfPint: She's a troublesome girl, explained by her being overshadowed not by one but two sisters, unlike Zoey.
* GreenEyedMonster: She is a construct based on jealousy, and her initial drive was to replace Zoey.
* ShadowArchetype: Quite literally. Claire-Elise is driven by the impulsiveness and envy that lie in Zoey's heart, and tends to take the bad directions that Zoey doesn't, and lacking her altruism.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Garic The Great]]
An enigmatic masked figure who known seem to know of in Ilium.
----
* AnIcePerson: Garic is empowered by the [[spoiler:First Snowflake, offered by the God of Winter.]]
* DiscOneFinalBoss: If we take the previous seasons as indication, Garic [[spoiler:dies]] at the exact midpoint.
* MalevolentMaskedMen: He is described as similar to Tuxedo Mask, and while he believes himself to be good, the Avant Guards unilaterally disagree.
* VigilanteMan: He takes justice into his own hands in Ilium, in sometimes arbitrary ways, prompting the Avant Guards to set on his trail after the murder of Lyra.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Lady Nim]]
The fiendish head of the Lilies
----
* BadBoss: She is both an example, given her interactions with Carrie, and a victim given her own superior.
* IKnowYourTrueName: Zoey uses this against her, pronouncing [[spoiler:Baraquiel to defeat her.]]
* PetTheDog: She mentions feeling sympathy for Light's immortal grief, and does not mention asking for anything in exchange for the amnesia spell he asked her.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Alice Hawthorne]]
An old lady who keeps a household of skeletons for sole company since the death of her husband Max.
----
* BadWithTheBone: She is an osteomancer.
* CoolOldLady: An exceedingly powerful magician, who is also much more accommodating than she really ought to be towards her constant intruders.
* SuicideMission: Once Alice meets with her husband again, she decides [[spoiler:she spend the rest of her life with him, even if that means she has to let Light lock her in the mirror prison.]]

[[/folder]]
[[folder:The Rocs]]
The Rocs are both researchers, who happen to be rival bounty hunters to the Avant Guards.
----

!!Season 3 Characters

* CelibateHero: Rolen is more interested in embodying the virtues of the Triad than in any type of romance, and has off-podcast been referred to by Skitch as explicitly asexual.

* CelibateHero: Rolen is more interested in embodying the virtues of the Triad than in any type of romance, and has off-podcast been referred to Skitch as explicitly asexual.

* CosmicChewToy: Fate tends to pile it onto Zoey, visually exemplified no more clearly than when a rain cloud literally follows her around. She is effectively the Drop of season 3.

* PowerStrainBlackOut: [[spoiled: When she becomes a warlock of Ghaunadaur, she faints from the shock of it.]]

* TrappedInVillainy: Dora is stuck with the conundrum that in order to keep the abilities that make her useful to her friends in the Avant Guards, she has to perform acts that go against and even hurt its members.

* HeartbrokenBadass: No more visible than when he discovers [[spoiler:the body of his old friends Warder, and concurrently the extent of the corruption in the Order.]]

* GoodIsNotNice: While Rolen is good and knows what he's doing, his charisma score means he's not very good at advertising his particular program.

* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Cannot be bothered to care of the why and how of her assignments, so long as she gets paid and fed.

[[folder: Veltari]]

* MidSeasonTwist: Her first appearance marks the first mid-season appearance of a new player, as well as the first mid-season departure of a player.
