History Characters / TwoBestFriendsPlay

* IllGirl: Paige has [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupus_erythematosus Lupus]] and has joked about it on streams. She even named her character in ''VideoGame/SonicForces'' Lupus the Wolf. She also frequently injures her neck by turning her head too fast.

** Woolie also reveals that, while he and various family members had been discussing these discoveries, a CoincidentalBroadcast started showing a public plea from someone (identifying himself as a Madden) looking for his biological father (who is also a Madden). Woolie's uncle [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial immediately demanded that the television be turned off, insisting that the guy on air was just running a money scam, and that the uncle had no idea who he was.]]

** Woolie's bizarre family history is revisited years later in ''Castle Super Beast'' after Woolie takes a trip to Ireland. Irish ancestry and surnames are common in Jamacia and Barbados, and Woolie's family name is eventually traced back to what turns out to be a notorious [[TheClan noble clan]]. This Madden clan -- whose name means "Dog", resulting in the "[=MacMadden=]" surname roughly translating to [[AwesomeMcCoolname "Son of the Hound"]] -- was [[ZeroPercentApprovalRating so despised]] that they were eventually ousted from Ireland in the 17th century, with most of their castle holdings razed to the ground. [[https://www.houseofnames.com/madden-family-crest Their family crest]], Woolie explains, is [[ObviouslyEvil a bird of prey killing another bird on a black/dark grey field]]. A random Irishman Woolie spoke to ominiously warned him that the Madden history is "a dark, dark past (...) a whole lot of pain", and informed him that, among other things, they were among the first in the country to enact the practice of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droit_du_seigneur prima nocta]].
* TooDumbToLive: In ''Scrublords'', he's starting to come across as this, by [[spoiler: signing up both him and Matt to a tournament that he didn't know who was running it, found it advertised on a note attached to his door written in lambs blood and various organs, and required blood samples in order to enter. The ''Franchise/StarWars'' episode implies that he caused a [[GroundhogDayLoop time loop]] by doing so.]]

* KnifeNut: During Friendcast 4 show notes he shows off some impressive skill with the classic knife game.

* FanArt: His Website/DeviantArt page is full of [[{{Fanservice}} lewd drawings]] of female characters from a variety of shows, including ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'', ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'', ''WesternAnimation/SWATKats'', ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', and ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''. As one commenter on the Art Gripe of his Hekapoo drawing stated,

* NiceHat: Usually seen with his beanie, albeit he's been sporting a black baseball cap of late.

* DepravedHomosexual: Because of Woolie's comment on Mission about the Twilek age of consent being lower than that of humans. Many fans and Pat make jokes about Pockets being a [[AllGaysArePedophiles pedophile]].

* ForTheEvulz: As Woolie plays her to be a VillainProtagonist of the highest order, Pockets frequently indulges in excessive amounts of cruelty even when she doesn't stand to gain much from it.
** Even in pure gameplay Woolie tries to make her a horrible person. When Carth says a person they are hunting didn't do anything wrong, Pockets not only starts the battle anyway, but spends turn after turn doing nothing so that Carth is forced to kill the victim himself.

* {{Corpsing}}: Copious amounts happen in their Friendcast appearance, especially from Liam and The Shit King.
--> '''Liam:''' ''Oh my GOD, what are we doing with our lives!?''
--> '''The Shit King:''' ''Man... This is a MESS!''

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: In ''[[VideoGame/MonsterHunter Monster Hunter World]]'', as well as [[VideoGame/Dokopon later appearances]] on ''Woolie VS'', her hair is green.

* ArchEnemy: [[PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy Bless]]. [[spoiler:[[PostFinalBoss It served as the final battle after defeating]] [[Music/SnoopDogg Crow.]]]] Though Comp and Bonecrusher are also something of a rival.

* BaldOfEvil: Normally, though his 'Shin Rage' form subverts this by sporting golden dreadlocks.
--> '''Woolie:''' He is ''BALD!'' He is ''[[HeroicBuild BIG]]'' and ''[[ScaryBlackMan BLACK]]'' and '' BALD!''

** He would also like you to shine his shoes, [[LogicBomb even though]] [[DoesNotLikeShoes he never wears any]].

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Shoes are for ''the weak''.
** [[CatchPhrase He'd still like you to shine them for him]] after he destroys you, though.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: As an ancient physical manifestation of anger and hatred, Rage is incapable of understanding concepts like "love" and "mercy".

* GutturalGrowler: Rage has one hell of a growling voice.

* HumanoidAbomination
* MonochromaticEyes: He's supposed to have pure white, [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing eyes]] but the ''Def Jam'' character creator could only manage [[IcyBlueEyes a very pale blue]]. It manages to have a similar effect, though. [[http://youtu.be/Lry0SYYkvas?t=12m40s He manages to give one hell of a]] KubrickStare.

* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His black kung-fu pants and red belt combined with his role as a ScaryBlackMan call this trope to mind. [[RobotMe Ragebot]] is a more obvious example, looking like something built by [[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance Desperado Enforcement]].
** As "Shin Rage", the color scheme is inverted, giving him blood red gloves and pants with a black belt.

* SkeleBot9000: Ragebot, sporting a shiny pitch-black SkullForAHead.
* TattooedCrook: Over time he gains an impressive display of tribal tattoos. As "Shin Rage", his body is almost completely covered in them.
* TimeAbyss: His approximate age is somewhere in the range of 'forever'.
* UnskilledButStrong: While Rage is certainly capable of more complex or advanced techniques, he prefers to just throw his strength ([[PunchedAcrossTheRoom and opponent]]) around and [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown brutalize the enemy until they can't move.]]

* VillainProtagonist: Considering he managed to be the only person strong enough to take on Crow's regime.

* WorthyOpponent: The first person to ever give him pause was Music/IceT. [[DefeatEqualsFriendship The two of them later teamed up for a tag tournament.]]

[[folder:Nevara "Pockets" Chaar]]
Conceived for Woolie and Pat's ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'' playthrough, Nevara Chaar (A.K.A [[OnlyKnownByTheirNickname Pockets]]) is a fairly sociopathic and greedy VillainProtagonist whom Woolie gleefully sends down the road to Dark Side point hoarding.

* BoyishShortHair: [[AuthorAppeal She was created by Woolie, after all.]]

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Three quarters of the way through the first episode, Nevara is asked by Carth Onasi to help him save Bastila and the Republic. Her response? "[[OnlyInItForTheMoney You'd better make it worth my while]]". This one line immediately earns her the nickname "Pockets" from Pat and Woolie, [[VillainProtagonist cements her path as a Dark Side character]], and also serves as an EstablishingSeriesMoment for the entire playthrough.
* EvilMakesYouUgly: As Pockets nosedives down the KarmaMeter, her skin and hair darken from brown to soot-grey, and she develops TaintedVeins.
* {{Flanderization}}: Discussed by Pat. Initially, Pockets' greed was more in line with an amoral mercenary, but as the ''[=KotOR=]'' playthrough dragged on, he noticed that portrayals of the character were becoming increasingly bizarre, to the point where he was eventually shown fan-art portraying Pockets as [[{{Gonk}} a misshapen gremlin]] holding empty pants out to people and screeching at them to fill the pockets.

** Pockets is later given an intentional foil in ''[=KotoR=] 2'' protagonist [[WebVideo/WoolieVersus Fann Y'Pak]], a Light Side character who generally sticks to good deeds, [[UnscrupulousHero only occasionally committing evil acts for "the greater good"]] (i.e. justifiable personal gain or the approval of evil party members). While also motivated by intense greed, Fann is far more [[PragmaticVillainy pragmatic]] about it, unlike the completely psychotic Pockets.

** Perhaps her most meaninglessly evil act so far was to [[spoiler:manipulate [[FeudingFamilies the feuding Matale and Sandral families]] into completely slaughtering each-other]] with a single, well-timed lie, [[spoiler:just as it seemed like the patriarchs were about to have a HeelRealization]]. The ensuing DisasterDominoes resulted in [[spoiler:Nurik Sandral killing Shen Matale to spite his rival over the death of Casus Sandral (who had actually died in an accident), Ahlan Matale killing Rahasia Sandral in retaliation, Nurik killing Ahlan, the Matale guard droids killing Nurik, and both sets of guard droids going berserk]].
** Even gameplay wise Woolie tries to make her a horrible person, such as when Carth says the person they are hunting didn't do anything wrong, Pockets not only engage her but immediately does nothing so Carth has to kill her.
** On Korriban, Pockets discovers the Sith Academy's training room, where they use hapless slaves as partners for lethal training. She promptly starts killing slaves in a quick succession of comically-effortless {{Curb Stomp Battle}}s, and is only stopped because the training system allows for a max of three such spars in a month ([[PragmaticVillainy an allotment specifically designed to keep someone like Pockets from just butchering the Academy's entire roster of prisoners in a single day]]).
* {{Greed}}: Her overriding motivation. Whenever possible, Pockets will indulge in reprehensible acts to get a tiny bit extra money from an NPC or to avoid spending more than she absolutely needs to. One of the first things she does upon entering a cantina on Tatooine is to shake down a random bar-goer for cash, just because Woolie saw the option was available.
-->'''Woolie/Pockets:''' "Your honor, may I approach the bench? Your honor... are you suggesting that his execution directly leads to the lining of my pockets?"
* JediMindTrick: Her favorite way to get what she wants, credits.

* MuggingTheMonster: Woolie realizes on Korriban which Sith can and can't feel the Force by who is stupid enough to charge Pockets.

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: While her given name in ''[=KotoR=]'' is Nevara Chaar, Woolie and Pat only ever refer to her as Pockets after the first episode, and so she is simply identified as Pockets whenever she appears in other games.
** To the extent that on multiple different occasions, Pat is confused about what a 'Nevara Chaar' is when other playable characters target her and her name appears on-screen.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Pockets rarely hesitates to fling charged insults at various aliens she meets, such as "bug-face" (to a rodian) and "fish head" (to a selkath). It can be inferred from LP banter that Pockets is prejudiced against twi'leks as well, christening them "[[FantasticSlur lekkies]]".

* RefugeInAudacity: Pockets, a woman so heavily steeped in the Dark Side that [[EvilMakesYouUgly her body is beginning to show it]], walks right up to the Jedi Council and [[BlatantLies lies to their faces]] about her selfless allegiance to the Light; [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter and they believe her.]] She also tries to lie to them about the Star Forge map she discovered, and she's only caught because Basilta (who was there at the time) [[WhatTheHellHero calls her out]] - [[SelectiveObliviousness but the Council doesn't even comment on the exposed deceit]]. Woolie and Pat can barely keep their composure as Pockets succeeds lie attempt after lie attempt.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: In ''[[VideoGame/MonsterHunter Monster Hunter World]]'', her hair is a deep, vibrant green.

--> '''Woolie:''' He is ''BALD!'' He is ''[[HeroicBuild BIG]]'' and ''[[ScaryBlackMan BLACK]]'' and ''[[BaldOfAwesome BALD!]]''

* [[invoked]] EightDeadlyWords: In the ''Heavy Rain'' stream, the plethora of {{Ass Pull}}s and {{Disappointing Last Level}}s make him noticeable disinterested when the Origami Killer's identity is revealed.

Pat's girlfriend and an aspiring voice actress from Chicago, she is a constant presence on Pat's Twitter and occasionally streams alongside him. Also known as [[Podcast/TheDickShow Peach Saliva]].

* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: Despite not being married, people note this dynamic between Pat and Paige.

* NeverLiveItDown: [[invoked]] [[EasyModeMockery Unlocking Easy Mode]] in ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3'' was a massive source of mockery for him in the last few months of the channel.

* RaisedCatholic: Woolie's childhood was apparently very religious, with Seventh-day Adventist Christian faith playing a large part in it. As he grew older, he started to disconnect from it while his brother became a pastor. Subverted in the literal sense, as he scoffs at some of Matt ideas on making him play religious horror with Catholic imagery since he doesn't relate specifically on this.

A British Youtuber who rose to popularity covering the works of Creator/TaroYoko. Clemps has been on the Friendcast and has had Paige, Matt, and Pat over on his own podcast, Coffee with Clemps. During his trip to North America he and Pat did a short LP of VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy2015. He can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/user/MrClemps here]].

* {{Asexuality}}: Romance and sex are things Rage just doesn't understand.
--> '''Carmen Electra:''' Now let's get home and find out how much energy you've got left...
--> '''Woolie, as Rage:''' [[TheComicallySerious Teach me those techniques, they appeared powerful.]]
--> '''Matt:''' The girl's just trying to kiss him and he's like, "What attack is this?"

[[folder:Zach]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/iputd0p.jpg]]

Matt's pet Angora cat. He was originally a stray cat until he was taken in by a friend of Matt's, who then gave it to him because she couldn't take care of him. Matt has a real soft spot for him, and his name was chosen by the fans.

Sadly however he has [[https://twitter.com/MattMcMuscles/status/1274129155433484288?s=20 peacefully passed away]], due to his age having caught up to him.

* AffectionateNickname: 'Sweet Baby' by Matt.
* AudienceParticipation: A poll was put up to decide his name, and eventually Zach won. Zach is a character from VideoGame/DeadlyPremonition.
* BewareTheQuietOnes: Killed [[spoiler: Liam]] in the Halloween party video.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: White, rounding out the [[ColorCodedCharacters color theme]].
* CutenessProximity: Tends to invoke this, especially with Matt.
* MoralityPet: Downplayed with Matt. While he isn't a BAD person, Zach brings out his much more sensitive side.
** Played straight with Woolie, however: animals despise him and he hates them back, but he absolutely loves Zach.
* TeamPet: Is treated in the logo as a pet mascot.

!!Former Members
[[folder:Liam]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/liamsbfp_2827.jpg]]
Known to many as "Rising Superstar Liam", as well as the resident otaku of the Super Best friends. He's a relatively recent addition, in a public sense. Known to like the PSP and PS Vita.

He announced in December 2016 that he would be leaving the channel, citing mental health concerns as the primary reason, but he still hangs out with the rest of the Zaibatsu.
----

* CommanderContrarian: He does this in the podcast a lot. Primarily because in his own words, he feels that if someone doesn't play Devil's Advocate, "the others will just circlejerk when it comes to hating on something".

** Matt has gone on record saying that, aside from the fact that 4 players inevitably causes alliances of 2v2 and loses the free for all aspect, the reason Liam isn't in Brawl is because [[DickDastardlyStopsToCheat he will troll the whole game if he thinks it'll make him win]].

** To the ''[=KotoR=] 2'' protagonist Fann Y'Pak, who, unlike Pockets, is a Light Side Jedi who mostly sticks to doing good, only committing questionable acts for "the greater goods and services", i.e. to keep his fanny pack full, but he's also much more pragmatic about this, unlike the completely psychotic Pockets.

* AscendedExtra: Following Liam's leaving the channel and Matt's sabbatical he was hired on as a video editor for the Best Friends. Minh later joined the ''Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2'' Let's Play on ''WebVideo/WoolieVersus'', establishing the channel's PowerTrio (alongside Reggie) and becoming its primary video editor.

* [[invoked]] EightDeadlyWords: In the ''Heavy Rain'' stream, the plethora of {{Shocking Swerve}}s and {{Disappointing Last Level}}s make him noticeable disinterested when the Origami Killer's identity is revealed.
