History Characters / MOTHER

Unlike the other members of the party, Teddy is not a kid; rather, he is a young man in his late teens to twenties. Leader of the B.B. (Black Blood Gang), he is the kingpin of the town of Ellay (Valentine) until some kids came in and started messing with his crew. After he is beaten by Ninten, he joins the party as to avenge the death of his parents. He likes smoking, leather jackets, and rock and roll.

* {{Delinquents}}

* CombatMedic: He has a very powerful physical attack, but all of his PSI is assist and healing. He doesn't even get a signature move like Ness's PSI Rockin or Lucas's PK Love. Even so, he is the strongest permanent party member.

* WhiteMagicianGirl

Seven mysterious, flighty, and secretive individuals with immense power; capable of bestowing psychic techniques on those they deem worthy. They enjoy tea parties and interior decor. [[spoiler:They guard the Seven Needles, and each Magypsy is bound to once by their lifeforce.]]

A travelling salesman, hawking "happiness" in the form of Happy Boxes and town renovation.

The protagonist of the second half of the game. He starts as a crybaby, but after his adventure he grows a lot more mature.

[[WMG: Salsa]]

* ApologeticAttacker: One of Salsa's skills is to "apologize profusely" to the enemy. This is a ContinuityNod to one of Porky's totally useless actions when he's a GuestStarPartyMember in ''EarthBound''.

* TheVoiceless: He is never shown to speak on-screen, though he is shown to chuckle at the demise of a Clayman. It is implied he does speak on occassion when a Pigmask conversing with Lucas via cell phone comments that Lucas' voice sounds unusually cheery today.

* NeverTheSelvesShallMeet: Ness and Baby Ness accidentally catch sight of each other from across time. This causes Ness to be catapulted into his own subconsciousness, aka Magicant.

* GlacierWaif

* YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm: TropeNamer.

[[WMG: Claus]]

** During the final battle between Lucas and the Masked Man [[spoiler:(who in reality is a brainwashed Claus)]] Flint will try and protect Lucas, taking two rounds of heavy damage for him.

* [[spoiler:[[LukeIAmYourFather Lucas, I Am Your Brother]]: Claus as the Masked Man.]]

* RunningGag: Fassad isn't afraid to stop whatever he's doing to eat a banana then throw the peel on the floor. [[spoiler: [[ChekhovsGun This turns out to be his downfall at the top of Thunder Tower.]]]]

* WeCanRuleTogether: Though not exactly, but why else does he want to spare Ninten's life?

* [[spoiler: AntiVillain: [[SlidingScaleOfAntiVillains Type]] [[PelagianVillain 4]] as the masked man]].

* [[spoiler:DiedInYourArmsTonight: Poor Lucas...]]
* [[spoiler:TheDragon: For Chapters 7 and 8.]]
* [[spoiler:DyingAsYourself]]: [[TearJerker It works.]]
* [[spoiler:EvilRedhead: {{Subverted|Trope}} - he's just BrainwashedAndCrazy.]]

* LogicalWeakness: [[spoiler:Doesn't register a heartbeat]], which renders your combo system useless.
* [[spoiler:LongLostSibling: Claus is the Masked Man.]]
* [[spoiler:[[LukeIAmYourFather Lucas, I Am Your Brother]]: As the Masked Man.]]
* [[spoiler:MaskPower]]
* [[spoiler:MismatchedEyes: The Masked Man is often depicted with these in fanart, even though it isn't actually in the game. This probably is based off the end of Chapter Seven when he leaps at you to engage in combat. The eye under the lens on his helmet [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glows red]].]]

* [[spoiler: PostFinalBoss]]
* [[spoiler:RedemptionEqualsDeath]]

* [[spoiler:SuicideByCop]]: Deflecting Thunder PK onto [[spoiler:Lucas' Franklin Badge]].

* WalkingSpoiler

* {{Leitmotif}}: [[spoiler:[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km8fiyKC0Bs She Was Like a Sunflower]], which plays at her funeral, during chapter 6, and during the final battle with the Masked Man.]]

* FragileSpeedster: Can outright be upgraded to a LightningBruiser if you're skilled with the combo system.

* OmnicidalManiac: He already expressed his belief in [-EarthBound-] that Giygas should destroy the universe. His real motivation all along: to eradicate everyone who doesn't like him. (Admittedly a big field to go after, but still...)

ShigesatoItoi's cult {{RPG}} [[VideoGame/{{Mother 1}} tri]][[VideoGame/EarthBound lo]][[VideoGame/{{Mother 3}} gy]] has a cast as [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters large]] as it is {{w|idgetSeries}}himsical and charming.
