History Characters / HappyTreeFriendsAdventures

* EnergyWeapon: His Special Power. Looks like he decided to take a lesson from [[VideoGame/EarthBound Jeff]].

[[spoiler:A child prodigy from the ''Digimon'' universe. For some reason, he appears in HTF form (a purple, [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal half-dressed cartoon squirrel]]).]] He only appears in HTFA 6, where he (like Tachometer in later games) was capable of running faster than most other playable characters. [[spoiler:He can only become playable if you've beaten the first third of the game]].

While she was semi-playable in a single section in HTFA 5 (only limited to jumping), she became fully playable in HTFA Land.

A dark red wolf with dandruff on his hair and tail. He usually appears alongside Neena as {{NPC}}s. He's later playable in HTFA Land.

[[spoiler:A child prodigy from the ''Digimon'' universe. For some reason, he appears in HTF form (a purple, [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal half-dressed cartoon squirrel]]).]] He only appears in HTFA 6, where he's the only male character so far to be capable of running faster than most other playable characters. [[spoiler:He can only become playable if you've beaten the first third of the game]].

* TheChick

* OffModel: She was given ears in the first three HTFA games. Doubles as an unintentional DevelopmentGag on the actual show's part, as her early design had ears (seen only in concept art).

* OffModel: By the time Tacho made his debut, he should have been depicted with more hair on his head and fuzzier tail (as shown [[http://lanathewolf.deviantart.com/art/Tacho-new-style-165302870 here]]). But no, Radel decided to use his older design. To be fair, that design is often seen in fanworks, especially in the HTF character maker program, HTF Digiter (he's one of the sample characters). However, even after Radel was aware of the more updated design, he still prefers the older one.
** HTFA Land finally depicts Tacho's sprite with the intended design, but his mugshot still uses the older design...

* OffModel: In the beta version of ''HTFA 7: The Greatest Battle Ever'', he uses his old design, which doesn't include blonde highlights.

* [[BigDamnHeroes Big Damn Hero]]: After the final battle in HTFA 1, Toothy gives the heroes and Giggles a lift in his spaceship as Bowser's lair is collapsing, ensuring them safety from the destruction.

* NoPronunciationGuide: Is his name pronounced with a soft "ch" (like chili) or a hard "ch" (like "taco")? Or is his name actually pronounced "Tac-ho"? His creator has yet to confirm the proper pronunciation of Tacho's name.

* [[JackOfAllStats Jack Of All Stats]]/MasterOfNone: The majority of the characters are this. Brandy and [[spoiler:Izzy]] are the only known exceptions.

* [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]/OneShotCharacter: [=WinBee=].

* PricklyPorcupine: Type B, though minus the loneliness considering she travels together with the other Happy Tree Friends.

* InASingleBound: She jumps the highest compared to other playable characters. UpToEleven if her High Jump power is used.

In ''Happy Tree Friends Adventures Game Boy'', Allay is revealed to have a SuperpoweredEvilSide, Allayna (based somewhat on [[Franchise/TouhouProject Flandre]], who only appeared in that game in the opening cutscene as part of Bowser's threat to Cuddles. Allayna, however, is set to be a part of ''Happy Tree Friends Adventures 7: The Greatest Battle Ever'''s story.

* AscendedExtra: [[spoiler:First appeared as a hidden boss in HTFA 2, then gets DemotedToExtra in HTF Origins as one of the captured Happy Tree Friends, then becomes a major boss in HTFA 6 and RPG, and is planned for
a playable appearance in a future title.]]

!Standard Playable Characters

!Other Playable Characters
This covers playable characters that are simply additions to the standard six in certain games. Other games like HTF Origins (if any) may also have these characters as the only playable ones.

A yellow bear with brown hair tied in a ponytail and wears light blue shirt, and dark blue skirt. Most of the time, she appears in her princess form, which has her fur color being pink and wearing a crown (her TransformationTrinket) and red dress. She rules the Happy Tree Kingdom and most of the time shares the same role as Peach from Franchise/SuperMarioBros, thus becoming Bowser's favorite target in this series.

* DamselInDistress: Starting from HTFA 2. She does not have this role in HTF Origins, though, as she is not a princess in that game.

In the hands of his creator, he's now a completely original character not tied to HTF.

* GangOfCritters: A group of animals.

* MismatchedEyes: One black, one green (and is his lazy eye). Often switched around due to AmbidextrousSprite (averted in [[{{Retraux}} HTFA GB]]).

-->'''Creator:''' CookietheMouse

* KidHero: All six characters are stated to be 9 years old according to Radel, despite the fact that their actual age is [[VagueAge very vague]] in canon (or if basing on the HTF crew's (possibly) joke answer to a fan's question, [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld around 500 years old]]).

The standard six playable characters that have been formed since HTFA 2. (there were only four members in HTFA 1)

!Other Playable Characters
This covers playable characters that are simply additions to the standard six in certain games. Other games like HTF Origins (if any) may also have these characters as the only playable ones.

'''Tropes applied to these characters:'''
* BadassAdorable: You cannot underestimate these characters too when it comes to taking down Bowser and his army.
* BigEater: In games featuring EdibleCollectible, some of the characters can be considered this.
* GoombaStomp: Lemy and Allay can do this in HTF Origins. In HTFA Land, Neena and Tacho also join in on the stomping fun.
* [[JackOfAllStats Jack Of All Stats]]/MasterOfNone: The majority of the characters are this. Brandy and [[spoiler:Izzy]] are the only known exceptions.
* {{NPC}}: If not playable.
* VictoryPose: In HTFA Land onwards, if they're playable, they have their own animation after clearing a level or defeating a boss.

[[folder: TwinBee and WinBee]]
-->'''Universe:''' ''VideoGame/TwinBee''

A pair of sentient ships that are playable in the underwater and outer space levels in HTFA 2. In HTFA 4 and 6, only [=TwinBee=] himself appears, and he is not playable.

In HTFA 2, you can either play as [=TwinBee=] if you choose a male character or [=WinBee=] if you choose a female.

* [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]/OneShotCharacter: [=WinBee=].
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: In HTFA 2, male Happy Tree Friends ride [=TwinBee=] (blue). Female Happy Tree Friends ride [=WinBee=] (pink) instead.
* CoolShip
* DemotedToExtra: In HTFA 4, 6, and ''RPG: the Fire Point'', only [=TwinBee=] appears, and the travels involving him are only shown in cutscenes, while [=WinBee=] is absent from both games.
* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Only the empty space and collectibles (and your own bullets) are safe to fly through when the player plays as one of the ships. Not only the enemies are capable of one-shotting them due to the ships being a OneHitPointWonder in this state, solid walls and obstacles can also destroy them if the player so much as touches them.
* OneHitPointWonder: Unlike the HTF characters, both ships are so fragile that they explode after simply taking one hit from anything.
* PinkGirlBlueBoy: That's how the game decides which ship the player is going to play as.
* SapientShip: As mentioned before, both [=TwinBee=] and [=WinBee=] are sentient ships.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: [=WinBee=], the female ship, is pink and used only by female Happy Tree Friends in HTFA 2. Her cockpit is even shaped like a heart symbol.
* UnexpectedShmupLevel: Levels involving them are pretty much this.

[[folder: Lemy]]
[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lemy.png]]
-->'''Creator:''' zolrac3005 (now [=Doctor-Lemur=]

A white lemur wearing a blue headband. Loves peace, yet is willing to participate in wars. Only appears in HTF Origins and HTFA 5, the latter being a {{NPC}}.

* CombatPragmatist: Lemy's skills in ''RPG: The Fire Point'' utilize pragmatic battle style ranging from kicking sand to blind enemies to insulting his enemies to anger them (read: Attack buff but leaves them confused).
* GuestStarPartyMember: In ''RPG: The Fire Point''.
* OriginalCharacter: Lemy is one of the fan-made HTF characters.
* PutOnABus: After a single playable role in HTF Origins, he ends up as a {{NPC}} in HTFA 5. And that is all, until...
** TheBusCameBack: Lemy becomes a playable guest party member in ''RPG: The Fire Point''.

[[caption-width-right:320:Regular Allay (left) and Princess Allay (right)]]
-->'''Creator:''' Cherry-Chowder (now [=CrabbyNoobs=])

A yellow bear with brown hair tied in a ponytail and wears light blue shirt, and dark blue skirt. Most of the time, she appears in her princess form, which has her fur color being pink and wearing a crown (her TransformationTrinket) and red dress. She rules the Happy Tree Kingdom and most of the time shares the same role as Peach from Franchise/SuperMarioBros, thus becoming Bowser's favorite target in this series.

* ActionGirl: In HTF Origins only.
* BearyFriendly: A sweet bear.
* ColdIron: Takes double damage from Machine attacks in ''RPG: The Fire Point''.
* DamselInDistress: Starting from HTFA 2. She does not have this role in HTF Origins, though, as she is not a princess in that game.
* ADayInTheLimelight: HTF Origins allows the player to play as her.
* GuestStarPartyMember: In ''RPG: The Fire Point''.
* OriginalCharacter: Allay is one of the fan-made HTF characters.
* PinkMeansFeminine: Her pink princess form.
* PrincessesPreferPink: She has pink fur in her princess form.

[[folder: Brandy]]
[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brandytvt.png]]
-->'''Creator:''' 090shinsuke090 (now Mr-Shin)
-->'''Universe:''' ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'' (formerly)
-->'''Special Power:''' [[BlowYouAway Small Tornadoes]]

--->''"Not bad. Not bad..."''

A blue and white arctic fox that wears a red bandanna around his neck. Only notable for having a single game appearance, in HTFA 6. There, he can be fought as one of the bosses, which after defeating him allows him to join your party. Like Flaky, he's a high jumper.

In the hands of his creator, he's now a completely original character not tied to HTF.

* BlowYouAway: His Special Power allows him to fire mini-twisters in a SpreadShot.
* BlueIsHeroic: A blue fox.
* {{Brainwashed}}: After being captured by Bowser and his minions, he gets brainwashed and becomes one of the orb holders.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: See below.
* FightingYourFriend: To make him playable, the player has to defeat him.
* HomingProjectile: As a boss, he can fire several mini-twisters that are shot to the player's spot.
* OneShotCharacter: Only appears in HTFA 6. His creator is no longer involved with the HTF fandom not long after the game's release.
** SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: Is shown to have already died and put in his grave in Lunavut Cemetary in ''Happy Tree Friends Adventures: RPG The Fire Point'', though how he died [[NoodleIncident remains a mystery]].
* OriginalCharacter: Brandy used to be a HTF fan character. Now he is no longer associated with HTF.
* RedemptionDemotion: As a playable character, he's just as weak as the other playable characters and his mini-twisters are now part of the Special Power, which is limited to a SpreadShot and is even restricted by the limited amount of Special Power gauge that must be kept refilled if you want to keep using his power. Justified here, as he was simply {{Brainwashed}} by Bowser during the battle against him and it's possible that he had more power in that state.
* SpreadShot: His mini-twisters are shot this way.

[[folder: [[spoiler:Izzy]]]]
-->'''Universe:''' [[spoiler:''{{Frachise/Digimon}}'']]
-->'''Special Power:''' [[EnergyWeapon Laser Gun]]

--->''"Cool!"''

[[spoiler:A child prodigy from the ''Digimon'' universe. For some reason, he appears in HTF form (a purple, [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal half-dressed cartoon squirrel]]).]] He only appears in HTFA 6, where he's the only male character so far to be capable of running faster than most other playable characters. [[spoiler:He can only become playable if you've beaten the first third of the game]].

* AdaptationalBadass: [[spoiler:Knowing the franchise he came from, he might be curb-stomped easily by Bowser and his army. Once he decided to join you, not only he can attack in the same way as the other playable characters, he also brings along ''a friggin' laser gun''! Who needs Tentomon (as well as a Digivice, for that matter) if he can just blast machineries to oblivion and splatter the organic ones into LudicrousGibs with just a freakin' laser gun and an infinite supply of balls/orbs?]]
* BigNo: When he dies in HTFA 6, only in the updated version though.
* EnergyWeapon: His Special Power. Looks like he decided to take a lesson from [[VideoGame/EarthBound Jeff]].
* FragileSpeedster
* GuestFighter: A non-fighting game example. He's the only non-HTF representative to be fully playable. (Twinbee and Winbee are limited to certain levels in HTFA 2)
* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: He still dons his typical attire, albeit without pants and shoes.
* OneShotCharacter: Like Brandy, only appears in HTFA 6. He is originally planned to appear in some of the future HTFA titles, but the fact that his HTF style designer (now apart of the HTF fandom) considered the HTF style creation an OldShame makes this unlikely that he will ever appear again.
* RealMenWearPink: Has pink diamond marking on top of his head.
* TheSmartGuy

[[folder: Neena]]
[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/neena.png]]
-->'''Creator:''' [=Neenagirl2220=] (now [=ImTheOneConfused=])

-->'''Special Power:''' [[SpreadShot Aqua Orb]]

--->''"Well done."''

A light blue cat with long brown hair, magenta glasses, light blue tank top, and dark blue pants. She usually appears alongside Tacho, as both often assist the heroes in one way or another. Design-wise, by HTF standards, she has the most complex design.

While she was semi-playable in a single section in HTFA 5 (only limited to jumping), she became fully playable in HTFA Land.

* ActionGirl
* AscendedExtra: She first appeared as a {{NPC}} that helps your character travel across the water by water-skiing. She gains the same role again in HTFA 5, but she can be controlled as well, albeit only limited to jumping. Only after having some DemotedToExtra moments (becoming a plain {{NPC}} in HTF Origins and HTFA 6) she is finally PromotedToPlayable in HTFA Land.
* BlueIsHeroic: A blue cat.
* CuteKitten
* DependingOnTheArtist: Neena's design pretty much depends on who drew her. Some depict her with larger, clearly cat-like ears; some drew her with the triangular ears (like Lifty and Shifty); some drew her glasses completely covering her eyes; some drew the glasses covering the eyes partially... the list goes on...
* EvilKnockoff: [[spoiler:Mecha Neena]], who only appears in HTFA 6.
* AnIcePerson: Her main element in ''RPG: The Fire Point'' is Ice.
* InterspeciesRomance: With Nutty the squirrel (not in-game, only fanworks).
* MakingASplash: Neena seems to be associated with water in this series. She assists the Happy Tree Friends in water-skiing levels, her EvilKnockoff utilizes water as one of the attacks, and her Special Power involves firing bubbles/water-based projectiles.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Compared to other HTF characters who are more simplistic in design, her design is rather complex, what with having hair like a human and being a FullyDressedCartoonAnimal. Granted, some HTF characters from the canon side can be this too (Disco Bear, Russell, etc.), but she definitely stands out because the majority of the HTF characters featured in this series has simplistic designs.
* OriginalCharacter: Neena is one of the fan-made HTF characters.
* SixthRanger: Became one of the main heroes starting from the ''Land'' spin-off.
* SpreadShot: Her Special Power is this, probably to make up for the fact that Brandy is not returning. Instead of mini-twisters, though, she fires basically bigger orbs that can go through any terrain.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Has long eyelashes.

[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tacho.png]]
-->'''Creator:''' Lanathewolf (now pinkkris)

-->'''Special Power:''' [[PlayingWithFire Flame Orb]]

--->''[[BreakingTheFourthWall "Good work, friend!"]]''

A dark red wolf with dandruff on his hair and tail. He usually appears alongside Neena as {{NPC}}s. He's later playable in HTFA Land.

* BigNo: When he dies in HTFA Land.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: In HTFA Land, it is clear that Tacho is waving to the player as his VictoryPose, as seen by how his eyes are facing the player. His victory quote (see the character quote above) is even addressed to the player, the only "friend" he actually "sees".
* EvilKnockoff: [[spoiler:Mecha Tacho]] in HTFA 6. Infamous for being ThatOneBoss in that game.
* NoPronunciationGuide: Is his name pronounced with a soft "ch" (like chili) or a hard "ch" (like "taco")? Or is his name actually pronounced "Tac-ho"? His creator has yet to confirm the proper pronunciation of Tacho's name.
* OffModel: By the time Tacho made his debut, he should have been depicted with more hair on his head and fuzzier tail (as shown [[http://lanathewolf.deviantart.com/art/Tacho-new-style-165302870 here]]).

However, even after Radel was aware of the more updated design, he still prefers the older one.
** HTFA Land finally depicts Tacho's sprite with the intended design, but his mugshot still uses the older design...
* OriginalCharacter: Tacho is one of the fan-made HTF characters.
* PlayingWithFire: His Special Power, which involves him shooting a fireball that can pass through walls. His main element in ''RPG: The Fire Point'' is also Fire.
* PromotedToPlayable: He appears in HTFA 4, 5, 6 and Origins as a {{NPC}}. He later became playable in HTFA Land.
* RedIsHeroic: A red wolf.
* SixthRanger: Became one of the main heroes starting from the ''Land'' spin-off.

* {{Adorkable}}: A shy, awkward character.

* LovableCoward: More pronounced since HTFA 6 as her expressions tend to invoke cowardice in certain animations. But still, one cannot help but keep guiding her through the levels. See {{Adorkable}} above.

-->'''Special Power:''' [[FrickinLaserBeams Laser Gun]]

* FrickinLaserBeams: His Special Power. Looks like he decided to take a lesson from [[VideoGame/EarthBound Jeff]].

* HairDecorations: A red hairbow.

* HairDecorations: Wears a pink [[MeaningfulName petunia]] on her head.

* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: When she is in princess mode.

* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: He's the Manly Man to Toothy's Sensitive Guy.

* AmbiguousGender: [[AvertedTrope Averted]], [=Radel999=] outright sees Flaky as a female character. [[HilariousInHindsight Turns out he's right.]]

* CowardlyLion: More obvious in this series.

* NiceGirl: Nice towards pretty much everyone... except Bowser's army.

* RedIsHeroic: A red porcupine.

* BlueIsHeroic: A blue skunk.

* NiceGirl: She's normally this unless provoked... or you've kidnapped her in the past.

* FlatCharacter: Still lacks character development.

* TheSixthRanger

A pair of sentient ships that are playable in the underwater and outer space levels in HTFA 2. In HTFA 4 and 6, only [=TwinBee=] himself appear, and he's not playable.

* DemotedToExtra: In HTFA 4 and 6, only [=TwinBee=] appears, and the travels involving him are only shown in cutscenes, while [=WinBee=] is absent from both games.
* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Only the empty space and collectibles (and your own bullets) are safe to fly through when you play as one of the ships. Not only the enemies are capable of one-shotting you due to you being a OneHitPointWonder in this state, solid walls and obstacles can also destroy your ship if you so much as touch them.

* PinkGirlBlueBoy: That's how the game decides which ship you're going to play as.

* [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome Chuck Cunningham Syndrome]]/OneShotCharacter: Like Brandy, only appears in HTFA 6. He is originally planned to appear in some of the future HTFA titles, but the fact that his HTF style designer (now apart of the HTF fandom) considered the HTF style creation an OldShame makes this unlikely that he will ever appear again.
