Sandra's pet raccoon. Sandra rescued him from an abusive owner, and he's lived with her since. He seems to divide his time between living with Sandra and exploring the woods with his animal friends.




to:

* IntellectualAnimal: Woo is no slouch intellectually. He can speak to humans and attempted subliminal cookie acquisition.
* TalkingAnimal: Though all the animals talk to each other, Woo is the only one specifically shown as talking to humans.



Sandra's boyfriend.

Sandra's boyfriend. Though he seems nonthreatening and sweet tempered, he's actually much stronger than his outward appearance would have you believe.




to:

* BullyingADragon: Ralph the bully makes [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2009/01/22/0027-major-mistake/ this mistake with Cloud]]. In fairness, Cloud doesn't ''[[CuteBruiser look]]'' particularly threatening.

** Note that her affections come about more because he was the only one kind enough to actually help her (as opposed every other boy - except Cloud - who just lusts after her but is unwilling to help her), rather than simply because she got a good grade - i.e. he treated her like an actual PERSON rather than just a hot babe.

* MistakenForJunkie: Larisa, who is diabetic, is caught by a teacher when giving herself an insulin shot during recess. She's then sent to the principal who informs her that taking this "dangerous drug" violates the school's zero tolerance policy against drugs. The plot was inspired by a [[TruthInTelevision similar incident on a U.S. middle school in the 1990s]]. [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2009/05/18/0060-addicted/ Start reading here.]]

Apparently, ''all'' the girls have been warned about her. [[spoiler:Suggestions that she's got [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2010/01/04/0126-secrets/ bigger problems than diabetes]] [[LikeYouWereDying put this in a more disturbing light]].]]

[[folder:Main Characters]]

!Sandra North

The protagonist of the series. Sandra is a typical middle school girl with a pet talking raccoon. She does have a bit of an egotistical side; she likes dressing up as "The Empress of Northia" and addressing her stuffed animal "subjects".
----
* BadLiar: Averted. She's a surprisingly '''good''' one. She also can do it with minimal preparation.
* BettyAndVeronica: For Cloud, the Betty to Larisa's Veronica. [[spoiler:Cloud chooses Sandra.]]
* BerserkButton: Coming off as a threat to Sandra's relationship with Cloud is unwise.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: When the "hand of god" replaces Woo with Tom the talking toast, Sandra first [[spoiler: eats the toast]]. Then she makes the hand [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2012/01/30/0346-the-contender-iv/ an offer it cannot refuse]].
* ABoyAndHisX: A girl and her raccoon.
* CharacterBlog: Sandra has a [[http://www.youtube.com/user/SandyTheThird YouTube channel]], also going by her alter ego Sandy the Third, empress and supreme ruler of Northia, there.
* ClingyJealousGirl: A mild example, but Larisa really shouldn't flirt with Cloud while she's around.
* CovertPervert: [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2012/07/26/0397-silence-is-silver/ Yes, Cloud, girls have naughty thoughts too.]]

!Woo
----
* CarnivoreConfusion: Both averted and played straight. Woo is friendly with Shadow, a fox, and Sid, a squirrel. They regularly try to eat each other, but as the tagline says, fail. This doesn't stop Woo and Shadow from eating ''other'' woodland creatures, ''successfully.''

!Cloud

Sandra's boyfriend.
----
* {{Adorkable}}: Big time.
* AnimeHair: Cloud has an IdiotHair and [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2009/12/21/0122-random-encounter/ this]]...
* BettyAndVeronica: Sandra and Larisa, respectively, with Cloud as {{Archie}}.

!Larisa

One of Sandra's best friends, Larisa has a strong mischievous streak. She likes to tease Sandra, flirt with Cloud, and generally cause trouble. However, there are hints of a darker side to her personality.
----
* BettyAndVeronica: The Veronica to Sandra's Betty.
* CuteButTroubled: Larisa

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Parents]]

!Sandra's Father
----

!Cloud's Parents
----
* ActionMom: Cloud's mom Ye Thuza is not only a loving mother and housewife, but also an urban ninja who single handily nails a tonberry (a dangerous monster in the FinalFantasy series) to a concrete wall with a wooden staff. Not to mention she's also a former ChildSoldier.
** Possibly a {{Deconstruction}} of the tropes. While certainly not a bad mom, her rebel experiences have left her [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2010/04/15/0155-rebel-heart/ "still somewhat messed up".]]
* AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: [[http://www.sandraandwoo.com/2010/09/20/0201-eating-out/ The best kind.]] Also see ShipperOnDeck. Ye Thuza is awesome.
* ChildSoldier: Cloud's mom was a Burmese guerrilla fighter in her teens.
