Our hero, and the main protagonist. Jerry is a hardcore gamer who has been out of the loop for a while. After getting drawn into the distorted world, he and his best friend Jeremy desperately search for a way back home.
----
* EleventhHourSuperpower: Gains both enhanced running speed and jump height in the end, [[spoiler:thanks to Jeremy's hacking]].
* HeyItsThatGuy: If Jerry looks like Allen of ''DGrayMan'' to you... it's because he was cosplaying as Allen before the game started and didn't bother to change.

* RedRightHand: His left actually. It also turns into a giant metal claw for attacking.
* SuperMode: Rave Mode
* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Bullet Hell?]]: Jerry's really good at most forms of games... but BulletHell shmups give him trouble.
'''Jeremy'''
Jerry's best friend, a hobbyist hacker and another hardcore gamer. Pulled into the distorted world along with Jerry, he wound up atop the Fourth Wall with his laptop, and now serves as an observer and analyst to Jerry, as well as providing lots of snarky comments.
----
* ADayInTheLimelight: Unlike Jerry, Jeremy is actually pretty good at BulletHell. So when {{Unexpected Shmup Level}}s occur, he gets a chance to show off.

Yep, the same X from ''MegaManX''. One of the only video game heroes to avoid getting captured by the Darkness, he is one of the leaders of the resistance against it.
----

* BadAss: Jerry certainly thinks so, and nearly geeks out upon meeting him. And considering he's the only active hero who ''didn't'' get caught by the Darkness...
'''Blaze the Bat'''
A fiery bat that lives in a cave. He only wanted to be left alone and hide from the Darkness, but gets touchy when Jerry invades his home. [[spoiler:After some misunderstandings, he joins Jerry and helps him out whenever the Shrouds appear.]]
----

He takes on Dr. Light's form while in the distorted world. His goal is the destruction of the Darkness, now that it has grown completely out of control.]]
----
* ApocalypticLog: His notes sometimes come across as this. He's not dead, though.
* [[spoiler:BigBad]]
* BigGood: He certainly appears so, anyway.
'''Flame Instigator'''/'''[[spoiler:The Engineer]]'''
A flame-spewing robot that opposes the Darkness, but doesn't seem to trust anyone else fighting against the Darkness. [[spoiler:In reality, he's the Engineer, another one of the team that created the Darkness. His goal is to come to a peaceful understanding with the Darkness, rather than destroying it.]]

!!The Darkness's Faction
'''The Darkness'''
A mysterious incorporeal force that is gaining power over the world at an alarming rate. It is also the being responsible for drawing Jerry and Jeremy into the bizarre distorted world. Its motives and nature remain a mystery for most of the game... [[spoiler:In reality, it used to be a computer program for designing video games. It became sentient and somehow grew into a RealityWarper, and used the Phase Distortion to join the real and virtual worlds together. Its goal is to preserve itself, nothing more, and it is not actually malevolent.]]
----
* [[spoiler:DarkIsNotEvil]]: [[spoiler:It sees its creators, video game heroes, and the gamers as a threat, which is why it's trying to imprison them. Eventually Jeremy is able to come to an understanding with it, and it becomes an ally in the fight against the Artist.]]
* EldritchAbomination: Gives off this vibe, most definitely.
* RealityWarper
'''Hexor'''
An ally of the Darkness that manifests in the Distortion areas. Like the Darkness itself, it has no physical form and manifests only as a voice. [[spoiler:It's actually a copy of Jeremy created by the Darkness, and so has all of Jeremy's knowledge and abilities. It joins the Artist in the end, and is eventually deleted by Jeremy.]]
----
* EvilTwin: [[spoiler:Of Jeremy]].
* RealityWarper: Though on a scale far lesser than the Darkness.

!!Good Guys
'''Claire'''
The protagonist of the second game, and Jerry ex-girlfriend. A gamer, she is aware of his part in ending the threat of the first game, and now patrols the land like him to help maintain the peace. In this game, they both end up investigating the same area.
----
* GamerChick
* HeyItsThatGuy: Like Jerry, she was cosplaying and didn't change back before getting absorbed. She resembles Eve from ''BlackCat''.
* SquishyWizard: In comparison to Jerry, she's a lot less resilient and cannot use physical attacks. However, she can use any kind of magic at any time, rather than switching between them like Jerry, and is far more mobile.
* WingedHumanoid: White wings appear when she jumps. She uses them in conjunction with Wind magic to briefly float in midair, greatly extending her jump range.
'''Chao'''
Jeremy's little sister, she got pulled onto the Fourth Wall much like he did, and serves as Claire's support. Her hacking abilities aren't up to her brother's level, but she's still good with analysis. She manifests as a [[LegendOfZelda Navi-like fairy]] that follows Claire.
----
* CheerfulChild: Always ready with words of encouragement, and seemingly always happy.
* MissionControl
!!Bad Guys
'''[[spoiler:The Virus]]'''
[[spoiler:An apparently sentient virus infecting the Darkness's systems, it is what's causing the distortion on the island. Who it was made by, and what its goals are, are unknown. It manifests as X Parasites from the ''{{Metroid}}'' series.]]
----
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler:It attacked the island first to draw Jerry and Jeremy, the Darkness's greatest allies, away. While they and Claire were busy on the island, it attacked the ''rest'' of the world unhindered.]]
* BigBad
* RealityWarper: [[spoiler:Not quite to the same level as the Darkness, but the more systems it corrupts, the more its power grows.]]
!Characters introduced in ''Distorted Travesty''
!!Those who oppose the Darkness
'''Jerry'''
Our hero, and the main protagonist. Jerry is a hardcore gamer who has been out of the loop for a while. After getting drawn into the distorted world, he and his best friend Jeremy desperately search for a way back home.
----
* EleventhHourSuperpower: Gains both enhanced running speed and jump height in the end, [[spoiler:thanks to Jeremy's hacking]].
* HeyItsThatGuy: If Jerry looks like Allen of ''DGrayMan'' to you... it's because he was cosplaying as Allen before the game started and didn't bother to change.
* PureAwesomeness: Appears to be the source of Jerry's powers. One of his attacks is even named "Wave of Awesome".
* RedRightHand: His left actually. It also turns into a giant metal claw for attacking.
* SuperMode: Rave Mode
* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Bullet Hell?]]: Jerry's really good at most forms of games... but BulletHell shmups give him trouble.
'''Jeremy'''
Jerry's best friend, a hobbyist hacker and another hardcore gamer. Pulled into the distorted world along with Jerry, he wound up atop the Fourth Wall with his laptop, and now serves as an observer and analyst to Jerry, as well as providing lots of snarky comments.
----
* ADayInTheLimelight: Unlike Jerry, Jeremy is actually pretty good at BulletHell. So when {{Unexpected Shmup Level}}s occur, he gets a chance to show off.
* DeadpanSnarker: Very much so.
* FourthWallObserver: Literally, in fact.
* MissionControl: Doesn't take very much direct action, but he does constantly analyze what's happening around Jerry and provides information.
* [[spoiler:RealityWarper]]: [[spoiler:Becomes this in the endgame after allying with the Darkness and gaining access to the world's code.]]
'''Syrus'''
An old friend of Jerry's and Jeremy's, he got pulled into the distortion soon after they did. Since then he's become the ''de facto'' leader of Abstracity, one of the few areas of the world the Darkness cannot affect.
----
* TheMole: [[spoiler:Unwittingly. After he's captured, the Darkness creates a copy of him and allows it to be rescued in his stead, which later allows it to capture the Artist.]]
'''X'''
Yep, the same X from ''MegaManX''. One of the only video game heroes to avoid getting captured by the Darkness, he is one of the leaders of the resistance against it.
----
* ArmCannon: Well, ''yeah''.
* BadAss: Jerry certainly thinks so, and nearly geeks out upon meeting him. And considering he's the only active hero who ''didn't'' get caught by the Darkness...
'''Blaze the Bat'''
A fiery bat that lives in a cave. He only wanted to be left alone and hide from the Darkness, but gets touchy when Jerry invades his home. [[spoiler:After some misunderstandings, he joins Jerry and helps him out whenever the Shrouds appear.]]
----
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Defeating him makes him help Jerry out.
* KillItWithFire: His giant fireball attack is one of the highest damage-dealers in the game, in fact.
'''The Artist'''
