J.T.'s [[HeterosexualLifePartners main hombre]] and [[CanadaEh Canadian as all get-out]], Chops likes hockey and playing acoustic guitar. He's generally down-to-earth and relaxed, and is one of the nicer kids at camp, one of the few that offers to actually help Raz during the [[TakeOverTheWorld crisis]], offering to patrol the camp.

Anything That Moves is a disambiguation


Gifted (or [[BlessedWithSuck cursed]]) with precognition by her bloodline, Elka is a stuck-up, love-obsessed girl with a fixation on [[CasanovaWannabe Nils]]. Her preoccupation with him - and the lengths she'll go to for his attention - are so extreme that even ''[[AnythingThatMoves he]]'' calls her "crazy." Her current ploy is OperationJealousy, using her relationship with J.T.

* CloudCuckooLander: He's a little odd, which more or less ties into his AmbiguousDisorder. He has a fixation on hats and seems to be rating the ones that the other kids wear. On Kitty's Campster profile, he goes off on a random tangent about how he loves kittens even though he got ringworm from one once.

A psychic with [[YourHeadASplode uncontrollable psychic powers]] with a mild obsession with hats due to the form of his PowerLimiter (a TinfoilHat), Dogen is a simplistic but nervous. He's the grandson of Compton Boole, one of the founders of the Psychonauts. Despite his several instances of, erm, [[PowerIncontinence head]] [[YourHeadASplode explosions]], Dogen is a sweet kid who loves cute baby animals.

* AmbiguousDisorder: Even by the standards of the rest of the cast, Dogen's [[{{CloudCuckoolander}} not all there]]. He has massive self-confidence issues brought on by PowerIncontinence (many of these moments having led to heads exploding, [[BloodSplatteredInnocents which definitely would not have helped his mental state]]) and tends to have panic attacks. When Dogen's brain is stolen, Raz tries to warn everyone around him, only for anyone he tells this to to respond with some variant of "he's just like that".

disambig Nice Hat


* NiceHat: Not only is his PowerLimiter a tinfoil skull cap, he also seems to have a fixation on hats in general. Most of his Campster comments are him just talking about the hats of other characters, and Clairvoyance shows that he views Raz as a floating helmet.

* AwesomeButImpractical: Borders on BlessedWithSuck. He is described as being an INCREDIBLY powerful psychic by Milla, and Mikhail, the strongest of the campers and no slouch himself, admits he wouldn't want to fight him because of his absurd power. Problem is, Dogen has little to no control over his psychic powers, requiring him to wear a tinfoil hat to control them, and even then, he'll have a hiccup over his powers ever so often with messy results.
