* {{Badass}}: He may not be as hardened or combat-tested as Kron or Bruton, but damned if he can't hold his own against a ''Carnotaurus''.
* BigGood: Becomes this when [[spoiler: the herd accepts him as leader over Kron.]]
* TheChainsOfCommanding: He nobly takes it upon himself to defend the weak, elderly of the herd and his lemur kin who are too small to defend themselves, but it starts to wear him down when it seems that he's the only one capable of doing anything at the dead end. The look of disgust on his face when he sees his group looking on apparently helplessly says it all.
* TheCharmer: An example where the person in question has no malicious intent whatsoever.
-->'''Neera''': Don't worry, my brother's like that to all newcomers... [[ShipTease no matter how charming they are]].
* TheDeterminator: Nothing will stop him from achieving his goal of getting his friends and family to safety.
* HeroicBSOD: After [[spoiler: Bruton's death]] and the group coming upon a dead end.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: No one, not even himself, knows how he went from an ''Iguanodon'' nest to Lemur Island.
* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Baylene and Eema, and possibly Bruton if he's that old.
* TheLeader: Of the misfits, and eventually [[spoiler: the herd.]]
* NiceGuy: He has a genuinely pure soul, which is why Neera falls for him.
* OfficialCouple: With Neera after he [[spoiler: becomes leader of the herd.]]
* TheRival: To Kron. It boils over in the end when he's right where Kron's wrong.

!!Neera
-->'''Everything's so different... I don't know what to think anymore.''
Kron's sister, who catches Aladar's eye almost immediately, and vice versa.
----
* BabiesEverAfter: With Aladar.
* CharacterDevelopment: Comes to hope again after meeting Aladar.
* DamselInDistress: In the tie-in video game, a mission revolves around Aladar racing to save her from a hungry ''Spinosaurus''. In the final mission, she's at the ''Carnotaur'''s mercy as well.
* DeadpanSnarker:
-->(''after Aladar apparently catcalls her'')'''Neera''': That children, is what's known as a "jerk-o-saurus."
* DeathGlare: To Kron after [[spoiler: stopping him from killing Aladar]].
* FriendToAllChildren: Is very close to the young orphans of the herd, and welcomes them into her family by the end of the film.
* MoralityPet: To Kron, of sorts. In a deleted scene, he makes an exception to his "you're on your own" rule regarding predators.
* NumberTwo: Of the herd when [[spoiler: Aladar becomes leader.]]
* OfficialCouple: With Aladar.
* SatelliteCharacter: Her entire presence in the movie usually revolves around her being caught between Kron and Aladar's conflicting ideologies.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Why she falls for Aladar after seeing his compassionate ways.
* ThickerThanWater: Why she races back to save her brother ''immediately'' after abandoning him.

!!Kron
-->'''Neera''': If we keep going like this, we'll lose half the herd! //
'''Kron''': ''Then we save the half that deserves to live.''

The aggressive, domineering leader of the herd, whose Darwinist philosophy quickly begins to clash with Aladar's benevolent ways.
----
* AntiVillain: He's a {{Jerkass}} through and through, but he's genuinely trying to save the herd from death. Too bad he's killing them all the way.
* {{Badass}}: The tough, strong leader of a herd of dinosaurs that survived a meteor impact. He's no slouch in combat either.
* BerserkButton: Having his authority or viewpoint challenged.
-->'''Kron''': (''chuckles heartily, then swings into an aggressive growl'') '''''Watch yourself, boy.'''''
* BigBadEnsemble: He's unwittingly leading the herd to its' doom, and he's the closest the film has to a BigBad besides the ''Carnotaurs''.
* BigBrotherInstinct: He is ''very'' displeased to see Aladar and Neera falling in love.
* CharacterDeath: [[spoiler: He's mauled to death by the ''Carnotaur''.]]
* DeadpanSnarker:
-->'''Kron''': Hmm. Let the weak set the pace. [[SarcasmMode Now there's an idea.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He loves his sister dearly. [[spoiler: Her leaving him for Aladar hurts him deeply.]]
* FantasticRacism: Gives a nasty snort at the sight of the lemurs.
* IllKillYou:
-->'''Kron''': If you ever interfere again... ''I'll kill you''.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Unpleasant, aggressive and brutal, but he loves his sister and wants to get the herd home.
* KickTheDog: His abandoning the wounded Bruton.

* WeHaveReserves: Was happy to leave behind the elderly dinosaurs to slow down the ''Carnotaurs''.

!!The Lemurs
-->'''Aladar''': ''This is my family... We're... all that's left.''
The lemurs who adopted Aladar when he showed up on their island. There's Yar, the elderly patriarch, his daughter Plio (the TeamMom), and Plio's children Zini and Suri.
----
* AscendedExtra: Zini is a supporting character in the movie, but in the game, he's one of the three playable characters.
* CasanovaWannabe: Zini fails to find a mate in the courtship. [[spoiler: He has much more luck in the Nesting Grounds.]]
* CoolOldGuy: Yar.
* DotingGrandparents: Yar to Aladar after warming up to him, and to his great-grandchildren at the film's end.
* [[LastOfHisKind Last Of Their Kind]]: They're the only survivors of the island's lemur population. [[spoiler: Luckily, they find more in the Nesting Grounds.]]
* TheLoad: Outside of their lemur-sized island, they're defenseless against predators and are reduced to simply riding the adventure out on the dinosaurs' backs.
* TheMentor: Yar to Aladar on the island, and also to the cast in the video game.
* PluckyComicRelief: Zini.
* TeamMom: Plio, who nurtures everyone she meets, even Bruton.
* UrineTrouble: Yar finds himself peed on by the baby Aladar, and years later, by Aladar's firstborn.
-->'''Yar''': Yep. You're your father's son, alright.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Yar with Eema.

!!Eema
-->'''Who booked this trip anyway?''
An elderly, wizened ''Styracosaurus'' who befriends the group.
----
* BigFun: Her model was designed to look like an extremely bloated ''Styracosaurus'', but she's still pretty sprightly.
* CoolOldLady
* DeadpanSnarker:
-->'''Eema''': Walking backwards, huh? Well let me know if that gets you there any faster!
* DespairEventHorizon: When the lake appears dried up, she goes down into the lakebed to weep and looks fully prepared to die there.
* TheLancer: To Aladar in the misfits.
* TheLoad: Justified due to her advanced age, she's not much help against predators, and actually collapses once during the trek from exhaustion.
* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Baylene's blue.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Baylene.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Yar.

!!Baylene
-->''I, for one, am not willing to die here!''

A massive, elderly ''Brachiosaurus'', who is quite the GentleGiant.
----
* BadassGrandma: She saved the herd ''twice'', once by using her weight to find water, and second by clearing a path to the Nesting Grounds.
* TheBigGuy: As befitting a ''Brachiosaurus'', she proves instrumental in finding water and knocking down the dead end.
* CoolOldLady: Baylene's one of the sweetest characters in the movie.
* GentleGiant: She is terrified of accidentally stepping on smaller dinosaurs.
* [[LastOfHisKind LastOfHerKind]]: She's the last living ''Brachiosaurus'' after the meteor strike.
* PreAssKickingOneLiner: See her above quote right before she unleashes hell on the dead end.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Eema.
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre:
-->'''Baylene''': The worst of it is, you allowed an old fool like me to believe I was needed. That I still had a purpose. And you know what? ''You were right''. And ''I'm'' going to go on believing it!

!!Url

Eema's "pet" ''Ankylosaurus''.
----
* AllAnimalsAreDogs: He's basically a puppy in ''Ankylosaurus'' form.
* PerpetualSmiler: He's almost always smiling.
* TeamPet: To the misfits.
* TheUnintelligible: One can only tell what he's saying through his body language and facial expressions because he's...
* TheVoiceless: Never speaks.

!!Bruton
-->''Why doesn't he let them accept their fate? I've accepted mine... to die here. It's the way things are.''

Kron's second lieutenant, who's more than he appears.
----
* {{Badass}}: Holds off the two ''Carnotaurs'' while the misfits escape, and he puts up a hell of a fight [[spoiler: before taking one of them out with him]].
* TheDragon: To Kron, until his betrayal.
* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: [[spoiler: He's crushed by a cave-in.]]
* FantasticRacism: Calls the lemurs "parasites".
