History Characters / RandalsFriends

* ShoutOut: His t-shirt will sometimes say [[{{Music/Nirvana}} Nirvana]], and he seems to be passionate about them. According to a [[https://ranfren.neocities.org/profile/nyen/nyennirvanasongsthumb.png doodle]], his favorite songs are apparently [[Music/InUtero Dumb]], [[Music/InUtero Heart-Shaped Box]], and Lake of Fire (originally by [[Music/MeatPuppets The Meat Puppets]], but covered by the band).

* PropertyOfLove: Luther's property. His pet catman who fantasizes about his Master's attention.
* TheQuietOne: Nyon is a man of few words. Most of his dialogue is a sentence or two in English or a few words in Russian.

* OverlyNervousFlopSweat: He does this a *lot*.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only female character in the cast.

* MysteriousPast: According to his [[https://ranfren.neocities.org/profile/nyen/nyencatman data page]], Nyon was formerly a 'normal human' before being taken in by Luther, and gained traits from his master as time went on (which suggests why he's the third-most important person in the house and also why his danger level is so high). His name is also suggested to be Biblical, "like Michael or Andrew or Jacob".

* DramaticIrony: The [[Main/Masquerade seemingly well-adjusted]] Luther makes a big show before the 'Jim Carrey Goes To The Dentist' game, saying that the players must be as gentle and sweet as possible while removing the teeth so they don't wake up Jim. Everyone at the table succeeds except Luther, who removes a tooth and fills the house with screams from Jim Carrey. He then [[WalkOfShame shuffles off]] while announcing that he's going to his garden, where "they'll appreciate my hands there".
