History Characters / Verum

* TheComicallySerious: His sterness contrasts nicely with the antics of the parties he encounters.

* [[JerkAss Jerkass]]: Thoroughly insufferable.

* AccidentalMisnaming: Cannot for the life of him remember names of people not in his party, even right after they say it. It's unclear if it's intentional or if he's just that stupid.

* KleptomaniacHero: Tries to pickpocket pretty much everyone, to varying levels of success. When Azolon conjures up an illusion of the prison the party would be sent to if they don't do what he says, he tries to pickpocket ''one of the illusory prisoners''.

* AbusiveParents: Played for laughs. He implies at one point that his mother hit him.

* TheAtoner: Making up for a life of debauchery with the life he has remaining.

* NeverLearnedToRead: Huck cannot read, despite what he may claim, and is often the target of teasing from the rest of his party because of this fact. Hilariously, when he finds words etched on a cave wall, they are described as his personal demons.

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Huckleberry can ''definitely'' read and has ''absolutely'' read books before in the past.

* JerkAss: Scrumpo's a bit of a dickhead.

* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Spends all of Season 1 in nothing but a fundoshi. He claims it's a cultural thing, but it's unclear if that's true or if he's just bullshitting.

* DoingItForTheArt: The bulk of what he does is specifically for the purpose of spreading awareness of D&D and how fun it can be to as many people as possible.

* ( “One moment, please.”

* CrazyPrepared: As a professional [[GameMaster Dungeon Master]] this is expected. He'll will be prepared for '''almost every single possible scenario''' the groups that he [=DMs=] for decide to choose and guide them through it.

* PapaWolf: Toward his players. He has made clear that their well-being and enjoyment are his top priorities, to the point that [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xImJLI1goZY he has stated]] that if harassment or heckling of any of them were to get too bad, he is perfectly fine with ending the D&D streams altogether and simply do them privately to cut off the opportunity to do that. He also pointed out that such harassers in his chat who were punished by the mods got off easy compared to if ''he'' had dealt with them personally.

* MinorInjuryOverreaction: In the battle against the bandits, when one catches up to him and deals a minor hit, he panickedly calls out to the others about being in danger... while the rest of the party was already incapacitated or very nearly so by that point. Naturally, no one's amused.
* SanityBall: Kaju is the only one with ''any'' reservations about [[spoiler:performing rituals for Crowley]]. He's also the only one with any good ideas about how to deal with Machio's depression: namely, an emotional support animal.

* ButtMonkey: Gets peed on, gets his eyepatch used as a thong, gets hurled into a river and goes over a waterfall, gets repeatedly sent to the Dream Realm over and over, gets trapped in the midst of a Depthar/Mistwalker clash... the list goes on.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: [[spoiler: Is [[{{Understatement}} just a touch too open-ended]] when he makes a pact with The Gambler Black for power, and loses his familiar and the three winged serpents he had hatched earlier in favor of The Smiling Saint in the process]].

[[caption-width-right:350:Who the hell is Frank?]]

* AbsurdPhobia: Gains a fear of pants after drinking a mixture of random potions that had spilled onto the ground. It is unclear if he still retains the fear after the potion wears off.

* FairWeatherFriend: Best shown in the battle against the bandits, when his support would shift repeatedly based on whoever happened to be doing well at the moment. At one point, he tried to ditch the battle altogether[[note]](In fairness, he did throw Machio a heal first.)[[/note]], only to come back when the party regained the upper hand.

[[caption-width-right:350:I'll be honest, I kind of thought I'd be working a desk job or something, I didn't prepare for this.]]

--> '''Eli''': [[BlatantLies I can quit whenever I want!]]

* PaperThinDisguise: [[spoiler:When the party splits, he, Machio, and Dik Cok try the fake daughter plan with ''him'' disguised as the daughter since Rattacus isn't around. Since he can't magically disguise himself like Rattacus, he has to do it the old fashioned way. Said disguise consists of gluing cut-off pieces of Machio's hair to his own to make it longer, and possibly putting on a dress. No attempt is made to disguise his glowing white eyes or full beard, or to give him horns to look more like a Ho'ask. It still works, and the only reason they run into problems at all is because Kaju and Rattacus had already done the fake daughter plan themselves, and were still at Dozo's house]].

[[caption-width-right:350:OOOOH YEEEAUH!]]

* UrineTrouble: Getting pissed on is apparently the punishment for stealing in his barbarian tribe.

[[caption-width-right:350:Rattacus over there was foaming at the mouth and on the ground, for all intents and purposes he could have been dying. So, we stripped him down, I made a dress out of table cloths and stapled it to his fucking shoulders, and your asking if we're the 'Bad Guys'?]]

* ButtMonkey: Gets peed on, gets his eyepatch used as a thong, gets hurled off a cliff, gets repeatedly sent to the Dream Realm over and over, gets trapped in the midst of a Depthar/Mistwalker clash... the list goes on.
* EyepatchOfPower: He wears it to look cool. It quickly gets stolen and then used by Machio as a speedo.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Calling him a friend at all is a stretch. Dik Cok is brought back from petrification against the rest of his party's wishes, despite his attatchment to them.

* KleptomaniacHero: Tries to rob pretty much everyone, to varying levels of success.

* {{Catchphrase}}: Has a number phrases that he commonly uses:

* BewareTheSillyOnes: The hyper-cheery Ho'Ask who looks like a walking sundae is ''also'' a dedicated follower of [[GodOfEvil Crowley]], as shown when she [[spoiler: gleefully desecrates a Glien shrine in his name.]]

* TheStoic: To the point that getting attacked elicits little more than an "Ow" from him.

* SupportPartyMember: Not nearly as much of a damage dealer as the rest of his party, but his Bless and healing make him absolutely essential in most combat encounters.

* NeverLearnedToRead: Huck cannot read, despite what he may claim, and is often the target of teasing from the rest of his party. Hilariously, when he finds words etched on a cave wall, they are described as his personal demons.

* TokenEvilTeammate: Downplayed as he's Chaotic Neutral, but he's the one who most often advocates for murder, he's ''incredibly'' racist towards elves, and he intentionally insults and berates his party members for very little reason.

* SitcomArcNemesis: To Scrumpo. Scrumpo finds nothing but annoyance with the dog and often tries to convince the other Beetledukes to use him as a ration. Ronnie is completely oblivious to Scrumpo's loathing.
* SurprisinglySuddenDeath: Is killed almost immediately upon the summoning of the Violet Servant thanks to The Fireball Incident

* NeverLearnedToRead: It's never confirmed outright, but Huck has a definite aversion to reading. Hilariously, when he finds words etched on a cave wall, they are described as his personal demons.

* BookWorm: Akakai ''loves'' books and never passes up a chance to read. She's always delighted to find a library and gets grumpy when pulled away from her reading.

[[caption-width-right:350:I am the funniest person I know]]

* WillNotTellALie: Comes part and parcel of being a Ho'Ask. [[spoiler: Except not so much in her case, as she proves willing to try to cover for desecrating a shrine right in front of her party, despite their warnings, by claiming that she was possessed into doing it.]]

* HorrifyingHero: During the battle with the highwaymen, he mostly tries to intimidate them into surrender. When he delivers a BadassBoast after managing to recover from defeat on his own via a natural 20 on a Death Save, ''that'' successfully convinces them to [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere get the hell out of there]].

* IMeantToDoThat: During the battle with the highwaymen, everything he tried to do missed, with Arcadum mentioning that the stray shots ended up hitting some nearby squirrels. After the battle was over, Rinzai claimed that the squirrels were a threat to the party and he was targeting them on purpose.

-->'''Melody/Terryn:''' ... because I'm hilarious and they need to agree.

* WeNeedADistraction: Melody/Terryn's battle plans often involve becoming this, succeeding to at least some extent with surprisingly high frequency.
* WildCard: Melody/Terryn seems to have cemented herself as this. At points where everyone else is busy flirting with [=NPCs=] or each other, she is often doing the most to actually pursue the party's current goal, but at other times does random things that aren't especially helpful, such as deliberately exposing herself to a hallucinogen that induces arousal and/or murderous insanity, or basically flushing a good portion of the party's gold down a toilet [[note]](in fairness, her character was high for that one)[[/note]]. In combat, her fighting style can usually be boiled down to "figuring out the exact level of bullshit she can get away with", with plans including kidnapping a [[BlobMonster miniature slime]] and chucking it into crocodile-infested sewer water, attacking an enemy by ''ripping off their nipples'', and using her Changeling abilities to transform into an opponent so that she could seduce him ''[[ScrewYourself as him]]''.

-->'''Melody/Terryn:''' [[BondOneLiner It's cherry blossom season]], [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch.]]

* CherryTapping: [[spoiler: Coots finishes off the Steward of Rot with a single Dart to the head, after the Goker brought it down to a single hit point by throwing his guitar at it.]]

-->'''Coots''': Hey, Steward of Rot! Go fuck yourself!

* ProneToVomiting: Had already thrown up multiple times before characters introductions were even over, presumably due to seasickness, though proximity to Smellgore may have been a contributing factor.

Class: Rogue\\

* SaltSolution: In the party's first combat encounter, he gets the idea to hurl some salt he had picked up earlier at a spectral enemy, which purifies it for a OneHitKill.

!!!The Final Toll

[[caption-width-right:350:Art by [[https://twitter.com/lilytharts Lilytharts]], below art by [[https://twitter.com/JohnSilvaArt JohnSilvaArt]]]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Click here to see her after her pact with Babylon]]\\

* BigBreastPride: Always had this, and especially so when her pact with Babylon gave her assets a boost. In the battle against the BigBad of Steel and Silence, she at one point goes out of her way to note that she has the largest bust of the party.

* HolyBurnsEvil: Following her transformation at the hands of Babylon, Revlis takes bonus damage from Radiant attacks. This proves almost lethal in the following fight against Druckman.
* HornyDevils: Invoked with Revlis, who becomes the equivalent to what Arcadum describes as "a Tier-2 Succubus" following her pact with Babylon. Subverted in that, although she is the first of the party to have sex, uses the most innuendo and openly ''talks'' about seducing men to murder them in alleys, Revlis doesn't actually have much sex and in fact only openly seduces anyone twice--the first time with Lassader Brone, the second with a cultist of the Shattered Star.

* MotherRussiaMakesYouStrong: When Zentreya began using Text-to-Speech, she started with the Russian-sounding Tatyana Ivona voice. Enforced further when she later switched to a more British-sounding voice for her own use, but would keep Tatyana Ivona for when she was directly voicing Zara, in order to differenciate between speaking in- and out-of-character, making Zara's official voice a Russian-accented one. And she is most certainly strong.

* BerserkButton: Do not insult her singing. The BigBad of the Steel and Silence campaign learned this the hard way.

* ShockAndAwe: Umi's "Thunder Wave" spell, which she tended to be reluctant to use due to the possibility of FriendlyFire, but finally brings to bear to ''glorious'' effect as the final blow against the BigBad.

* DramaticUnmask: When the party defeats him, his mask burns away as well, revealing him to be Lonalas Choral, who had charmed Vaeri at the party earlier.

* TheWoobie: When Seren sends him a DearJohnLetter, to the point that he's renamed "Sad Derick" for his appearance in "Death and Debts".

* TheOtherDarrin: In the earliest episodes of "Death and Debts", Zentreya was still TheVoiceless, only able to communicate by typing into [=MapTools=] chat, necessitating Arcadum to voice Zara for her. When Zentreya began using Text-to-Speech, the "Tatyana Ivona" voice would be used to voice Zara instead.

* TwoFaced: [[spoiler: Is this under her mask. Apparently, ''something'' took a pretty nasty claw to half of her face.]]

* GullibleLemmings: Very easily tricked.

Race: Elf (Shar'kai)

* LeeroyJenkins: Has a tendency to charge into battle, even when it's ill-advised or there are likely to be better options.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Inverted, as the only male player character in an otherwise all-female cast.

* EmbarrassingNickname: The players of "Death and Debts"/"Steel and Silence" have taken to referring to Arcadum as [[TeamDad "Dungeon Daddy"]], which they mean as an AffectionateNickname, but he tends to see more as this. He at a couple of points tried referring to himself as "Dungeon Father", but it didn't do much to dissuade the group. He has something of a crisis when the second VirtualYoutuber group that would come to run [[WebVideo/OtikatasCurse Otikata's Curse]] made clear that they were aware of the nickname as well; however, they ultimately decided to use their own, "Mr. Dad", which Arcadum seems fine with.

* SwordBeam: Portrays his Eldritch Blast as launching from a swing of his Hexblade.

!!!Shrine of Sin

[[folder:Kenji]]

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/gmart Gmart]]\\
Race: [[HalfHumanHybrid Yozai]] (Twilight)\\
Class: Monk (Way of Mercy)\\

* BadassBeard: Rockin' a pretty good beard.
* BareFistedMonk: His fighting style mostly boils down to "punch it".
* BloodKnight: Not as much of one as Worgh, but still enjoys combat.
* ButtMonkey: Kenji's status as "[[CannonFodder goblin]]" and ''astonishing'' miss rate hasn't left him with much respect among the party.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Most of the party acts as this to Verp, but Kenji in particular gets paired up with the Grippli in order to keep him out of trouble.
* HealingHands: Possesses both Hand of Healing and Lay on Hands.

[[folder:Verp]]

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/tomato Tomato]]\\
Race: [[FrogMen Grippli]]\\
Class: Cleric (Faithless Domain)\\

* BadassAdorable: Very cute looking, but capable of a frightening amount of damage with [[TouchOfDeath Inflict Wounds]].
* ExtremeOmnivore: Verp eats most things he can get his hands on, eating books, gold, and other things. His player even explicitly advises against giving Verp the BagOfHolding as he would have eaten it pretty much immediately.
* FunctionalAddict: Addicted to [[FantasticDrug Black Silver]], but it doesn't really interfere much.
* HatesBeingTouched: He has no issue initiating touching people, but he's very jumpy and averse to being touched himself.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Verp has a bit of trouble reading people and understanding social politeness, which has a tendency to earn people's ire.
* NaiveNewcomer: Verp's lack of knowledge of Glies and its culture means that he needs some of its pecularities explained to him. Unfortunately, most of the people he asks aren't that great at explaining things.
* NayTheist: Verp doesn't ''disbelieve'' in the existence of spiritual things, but doesn't find any good reason to put faith in those things, and holds active disdain for them.
* NiceHat: Picks up a fedora to fuel his detective persona. It grants [[KnowNothingKnowItAll +2 False Intelligence.]]
* OverlyLongTongue: He ''is'' a frog. It sees a lot of use, both for grabbing things and activating touch spells at a greater distance.

[[folder:Akakai]]

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/rediculousstreams Red]]\\
Race: [[BatPeople Tearn]]\\
Class: Ranger ([[DemonSlaying Onimetsu]])

* BookWorm: Akakai ''loves'' books and never passes up a chance to read. She's always delighted to find a library and gets grumpy when pulled away from her reading.
* DemonSlaying: Her status as an onimetsu means she is ''very'' adept at facing down and destroying [[OurDemonsAreDifferent akuma]].
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Akakai has pale skin and dark hair.
* {{Flight}}: She can fly thanks to her wings. It's incredibly helpful in navigating treacherous areas, scouting around for enemies, and remaining out of harm's way.
* NoSocialSkills: Has trouble talking to anyone not named Joey.
* NotSoStoic: Mostly very serious and cool, but this demeanor drops around books and with Joey.

[[folder:Worgh the Wyrd]]

Player: [[https://www.youtube.com/c/Criken Criken]]\\
Race: [[OurOrcsAreDifferent Blue Orc]]\\
Class: Fighter/Wizard (Void Mage)\\

* AffablyEvil: Worgh is power hungry and solidly NeutralEvil, but his goofiness and respect for the other members of his party keeps him allied with his Good to Neutral friends.
* BerserkButton: Denying him power. After [[spoiler:getting tricked by Dexin Volnarus into giving up Sinning Simon's soul for free, Worgh is silently fuming until Kenji touches him, after which he goes ''ballistic'', knocking Kenji out with one punch and proceeding to rampage across the room.]]
* BloodKnight: Loves fighting and frequently challenges others to fights.
* CloudCuckoolander: True to his title, Worgh is weird.
* DumbMuscle: Very powerful, both physically and magically, but struggles in common sense.
* MagicKnight: Worgh supplements his physical prowess with magical power, making him a force to be reckoned with.
* SwordAndFist: Fights with a longsword and his [[LivingWeapon Fist of Feasting]].
* XtremeKoolLetterz: Wyrd. It's unknown if this is to accentuate his weirdness or if Worgh doesn't really know how to spell "weird".

[[folder:Zhan Ren]]

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/Lawlman Lawlman]]\\
Race: [[ALoadOfBull Ho'Ask]]\\
Class: Glien Samurai (Azuma)\\

* BadassBaritone: Has a deep Optimus Prime-esque voice.
* BadassBeard: Has a very nice beard.
* BadassNormal: The only completely non-magical member of the party and just as formidable as the rest of the group.
* CanNotTellALie: Refuses to lie as a part of his culture, and is very disappointed and angry when others do so.
* TeamDad: Acts as a bit of a fatherly figure to the rest of the party.

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/apricot Froot]]\\
Race: [[OurElvesAreDifferent Whitewood Elf]]\\
Class: Rogue (Assassin)\\

* BerserkButton: Referring to her branches as antlers, or stealing from her stand.
* BowAndSwordInAccord: Primarily wields a shortbow and rapier.
* ContraltoOfDanger: Her voice gets noticeably lower when in her assassin's guise.
* HyperAwareness: She has a +5 bonus to Perception checks, and she's generally tended towards getting fairly high rolls when performing such checks.
* LivingADoubleLife: Fruit stand owner by day, assassin by night. She has been shown to get noticeably flustered when she believes that someone has caught on to this.
* MysticalWhiteHair: Goes so far as to explicitly point hers out when listing her advantages in salesmanship over Kyse's.
* NoblewomansLaugh: Breaks these out on occasion.
* PrecisionFStrike: Delivers one when Kyse wins over Nia as a customer, which gets attention just from how posh it sounds in Froot's accent.[[note]]Also to those who are previously familiar with Froot; while her swearing isn't exactly unheard of, it is something that she typically tries to avoid.[[/note]]
* PreMortemOneLiner: Delivers one to the Mistwalker Gorger before delivering a slash with her rapier. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, the attack doesn't quite finish it, and Mei gets beaten down shortly afterward.]]
-->'''Mei''': I have killed many. You... are just a number!
* ProfessionalKiller: She ''is'' an assassin, after all. This even comes into play in the campaign, with her receiving a contract from her clan via crow during the night in the fourth session, with the implication that this will be a recurring event.
* SitcomArchNemesis: To Kyse, the owner of a meat stand that rivals Mei's fruit stand, though they go back to being [[FriendlyEnemy Friendly Enemies]] when the day is over.
* StealthExpert: She has a +7 bonus to Stealth checks, and very often fares well in such rolls, especially in one instance where she managed a ''27'' when scouting out the presence of a Mistwalker Gorger, and did so again once in the actual fight with it.

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/nyanners Nyanners]]\\
Race: [[BatPeople Tearn]]\\
Class: [[BlackMage Warlock]] (Celestial)\\
Deity: Zvaigždė\\

* AffectionateNickname: River coins the nickname "Luci" for her, which initially causes her some level of confusion due to never being referred to by anything beyond her rank in the military or her name.
* CombatMedic: Has some healing spells in addition to her offensive ones.
* TheComicallySerious: She maintains her calm, mysterious tone even when delivering the occasional odd statement or smoking a blunt.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Is depicted as barefoot, to keep her claws free.
* EyepatchOfPower: Has one over her left eye.
* FlyingFirepower: Shaping up to be one of her go-to combat strategies. She later took Eldritch Spear to improve her range specifically to become better capable of it. Added to in the battle against the Mistwalker Gorger, when she airlifts Nia for the occasion, allowing her to attack and heal from the air as well.
* InnateNightVision: As a Tearn, she has an enhanced ability to see in the dark.
* LadyOfWar: Certainly projects the air of one. While the campaign has yet to see combat, her backstory is that she was a Captain in a military before stepping down prior to the campaign's start.
* TheMentor: Had served this role to Captain Chei in her backstory.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Despite her youthful appearance, Lucine has a very long lifespan as a Tearn and it's apparent that she's been a soldier for a long time.
* PlayingAgainstType: Nyanners has stated that she had specifically conceived of her character to be serious and stoic to step away from her usual goofy and chaotic persona.
* ScrewDestiny: Has memorably had a particularly... unique take on this. [[note]]For context, Mei, due to not wanting to reveal what a fortune teller had actually told her, instead claimed that he predicted that she would soil herself in the coming weeks, leading to this quote.[[/note]]
-->'''Lusine''': You can shit yourself whenever you want to. Fate is in your hands.
* ShellShockedVeteran: Has shown some shades of this, as she seems to have come across her share of unpleasant sights during her time as a soldier.
* TheSleepless: No longer needs to sleep, thanks to taking Aspect of the Moon.
* TheStoic: Even when drunk or stoned, she maintains her serious and calm tone.

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/harukakaribu Haruka Karibu]]\\
Race: [[LizardFolk Geckoi]]\\
Class: Fighter ([[DanceBattler Dancing Blade]])\\

* AmbiguousGender: As a Geckoi, she has few outward indications of her gender other than her feathery hair.
* BarbieDollAnatomy: See above.
* CantHoldHisLiquor: Or her liquor in this case. It doesn't take long for River to fall into a fit of drunken stupor after sitting down with Lucine and Captain Chei in the tavern.
* CaptainCrash: She's introduced crashing her kite into a tree. Apparently, this is a regular occurrence for her, though it has yet to come into play in the campaign itself.
* CombatHandFan: She gets a pair of these from Naus Gaki as part of the group's starting gear.
* TheDrifter: She seems to have been this prior to the campaign, mentioning in conversation that she frequently sleeps wherever she can manage to find shelter, such as in trees or caves.
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice: Intentionally draws the attention of the Mistwalker Gorger to take the heat off her allies, which ultimately resulted in her death.]]
* HeroicSecondWind: As a Fighter, she can use the Second Wind ability to perform a [[HealThyself self-heal]].
* InformedAbility: Despite being presented as a dancer, she has no proficiencies in the Performance skill. This, combined with her typically poor rolls, resulted in her attempt to take part in a dancing competition ending in her barely making it through the first round (and then only because her competition passed out first), and soundly losing the second round. Though this is chalked up to River [[CantHoldHisLiquor being drunk]] and unused to performing in front of crowds.
* NervesOfSteel: In the battle against the Mistwalker Gorger, she utterly brushed off every one of its attempts to use Frightening Roar on her.
* TheNicknamer: Has shown a penchant for giving her comrades nicknames, with Mei being referred to as "Princess" for her prim and prissy demeanor, and Lucine gaining the nickname [[AffectionateNickname "Luci"]].
* NoodleIncident: She somehow managed to get a hit put out on her at one point, resulting in a second such incident where Mei tried to collect on it, but obviously failed to do so.
* PingPongNaivete: Of a sort. On a few occasions when River encountered a character that she felt was lying in some way, she performed an Insight check to attempt to detect any deception. In keeping with her poor luck with rolls, every attempt at this has failed miserably, resulting in River playing to this result in-game by promptly declaring that she completely trusts the character that she suspected of dishonesty only moments earlier.
* PrehensileTail: As is natural for a Geckoi.
* UnluckilyLucky: River was the only one who failed her initial wisdom save to fend off the HatePlague, leaving her briefly BrainwashedAndCrazy. Fortunately, though, her infamously poor luck with rolls continued when she was forced to attack Bomba, causing her to miss and giving her second chance at a wisdom save, which did turn out successful, allowing her to return to normal.
* WhipItGood: She's able to use her tail as this, thanks to a knife at its end.

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/snuffy Snuffy]]\\
Race: [[ALoadOfBull Ho'Ask]]\\
Class: WildMagic Sorcerer\\

* BagOfHolding: Is the one in charge of the one gifted to the party.
* CanNotTellALie: As a Ho'Ask, he refuses to lie as a part of his culture, and is very disappointed and angry when others do so.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: As a "femboy", he's a male with feminine features. This shows in both in his face and his horns, which extend slightly to the sides and upward (Its usually upward for females or to the sides for males).
* FightsLikeANormal: Despite being a Sorcerer, he seems to primarily fight using conventional weapons when possible, though the gloves come off when it's clear that the enemy at hand is ''really'' nasty.
* GagPenis: Even taking into account his Ho'ask ancestry, Tomoe is quite gifted in that aspect. His party is noticeably intimidated by his size, but it's mostly [[PlayedForLaughs played for laughs]].
* HornedHumanoid: Naturally has horns given that he's a Ho'Ask. His are somewhat unique in that they jut out just slightly to the sides before extending vertically.
* KillItWithIce: His Ray of Frost, [[spoiler: which in particular comes in handy against the Mistwalker Gorger, as using it reveals that cold-based attacks reduce its rage]].
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Inverted, as the only male player character in an otherwise all-female cast.
* StraightMan: His most common role thus far, in his reactions to things like Jilly's efforts to interview him or Mei and Kyse's rivalry.

Race: [[CatGirl Tabaxi]]/[[HalfHumanHybrid Human]]\\
Class: Druid\\

* TheDitz: Is a bit of an airhead, especially in how she ended up broke at the campaign's start. Subverted when the party is preparing for a fight, showing a more serious and calm demeanor.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Apparently, given that Lune warns the party against letting her fly via kite. While this could be chalked up to her not being native to Glies and thus unused to that mode of travel, Lune makes clear that this tendency extends to land vehicles as well. Fortunately, she's light enough that Lucine can fly while carrying her.
* HunterOfMonsters: Due to originally hailing from Steton. She specializes in Chimeras.
* ImAHumanitarian: Possibly. When Kyse offers her the choice of any meat from his stand, Nia tries asking for [[BirdPeople Kyse himself]].
* InTheHood: Wears one when first entering the tavern when realizing that Mia and Kyse are also there. Mei sees through it, though.
* KillItWithIce: Her Ice Knife spell, which even comes with some AreaOfEffect damage.
* LethalChef: The first time the party makes camp, she makes an attempt to cook her ration, but fails the roll and burns it to charcoal instead. According to Lune, it's apparently the ''best'' one she's made to date.
* MiracleFood: She has a spell that allows her to conjure Goodberries. It's been suggested that this is the cause of her LethalChef tendencies, as thanks to having it, she doesn't really have to cook.
* PlayingAgainstType: Vei specifically conceived the character to be more innocently cute in order to step away from her usual sexually-charged persona.
* SinisterScythe: Her familiar, Lune, is capable of transforming into a blade for her scythe. Played with in that she's not exactly sinister (though she is prone to stealing or cheating), but Lune himself is something of TheTrickster.
* SoleSurvivor: The battle with the Mistwalker Gorger ends with her as the only one left standing, though downplayed in that the rest of the party is severely injured and NotQuiteDead. [[spoiler: Except for one.]]
* StickyFingers: Steals some food from Kyse and Mei's respective stands while they're busy arguing with each other.
* TokenMiniMoe: As the smallest and seemingly youngest member of the group.

[[folder:Major [=NPCs=]]]

!Lune
* HypercompetentSidekick: He seems to see himself as one to Nia.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: He's got a maw full of big, pointy teeth.

* TalkingAnimal: As Nia's familiar.
* TooKinkyToTorture: When Mei catches up to him for his part in Nia stealing from her stand, he's all too enthusiastic about the punishments she has lined up for him.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Has some level of this. He mainly switches between his cat form and the form of a [[SinisterScythe scythe's blade]], but has been shown to be able to take other forms, such as a bed for Nia.

!Kyse
* BirdPeople: As a Kenku.
* GoneHorriblyRight: When he beats Mei to getting Nia as a customer, only for Nia to ask for ''him''.
-->'''Kyse''': ''(To Mei)'' YOU CAN HAVE HER!
* SitcomArchNemesis: To Mei, being the owner of a meat stand that rivals her fruit stand, though they go back to being [[FriendlyEnemy Friendly Enemies]] when the day is over.
* TheStoner: Has a considerable stash on him when the party gets to the tavern at the end of the day.

!Naus Gaki
* BatPeople: As a Tearn.
* TheCassandra: He mentions that he had been trying to warn others about Otikata for some time, only to be ostracized and eventually lose pretty much everything he had for his troubles.
* MissionControl: As mentioned above, he's the one with the information on everything that's going on, and the party maintains contact with him via a magical seashell-like device, but only for ten minutes a week.
* MrExposition: Is the one to fill the party in on what's going on and what can be done about it.
* ScarsAreForever: Has major burns on the right side of his face and right wing from a failed attempt to delay Otikata's return.

!Otikata
* BigBad: The main threat of the campaign.
* EldritchAbomination: An otherworldly creature spreading a curse of hatred throughout Glies.
* HatePlague: His curse. It's capable of turning even small annoyances into burning, violent rage. What makes his curse so dangerous is that it spreads. What starts as one violent act can turn into a full riot of hate. And given that [[FromBadToWorse yokai turn into akuma in the presence of negative emotions...]]
* LeakingCanOfEvil: Currently unable to fully access the Material Plane, but he can still access people's dreams and spread [[HatePlague his curse]].
* OurDemonsAreDifferent: An incredibly powerful akuma, dwarfing every corrupted yokai seen so far. Notably, while most akuma resemble normal yokai with a bit of BodyHorror, Otikata is a full on EldritchAbomination with no inkling as to whatever his original form was.
* ThePowerOfHate: Basically runs on it.
* WasOnceAMan: Presumably, he was once just a regular yokai like any other. Now he... [[EldritchAbomination isn't]].

Race: Sprite (Iron Wing)\\
Class: Warlock (Undying)\\
Deity: Oloken'hai\\

* BerserkButton: Calling his hands small. A trait shared by his player.
* CatchPhrase: Always begins his rhymes with "Bippity boppity".
* ChaoticNeutral: His alignment [[spoiler:at the start. Shifts to ChaoticGood after his HeroicSacrifice.]]
* CombatTentacles: Frequently uses the Arms of Hadar spell. [[spoiler:Some tentacles also sprout out of his body while channeling [[EldritchAbomination Oloken'hai]].]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Frequently makes jabs and quips at his fellow party members.
* EldritchAbomination: ''Claims'' to be this. His patron, Oloken'hai, fits the bill much better.
* LargeHam: Incredibly dramatic and fond of rhymes before casting spells.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Consistently chants an expressive ''spell'' in order to...open doors. Doubles as a [[BrickJoke running joke]] in game where he's completely unaware that his party members (mainly Brewbad) opens the door for him.
** Though in the last episode of Scrolls of Not'chek this is somewhat slightly subverted [[spoiler: when he opens a door outside of view from his party.]]
* TheGadfly: Shmeg enjoys teasing, pranking, and seems to take the most joy in berating and insulting Scribbles.
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice: During a very low point in the battle with Not'Chek, Shmeg begs Oloken'hai to trade his life for the ones of his fallen party members. After channeling his patron, Shmeg ends up alive and with his party revived, although very exhausted from the experience.]]
* TheNapoleon: The smallest party member with a huge ego and a short temper.
* OmniGlot: A variation. Shmeg can read any language after picking up Eyes of the Runekeeper.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: He claims to be ''very'' old, but the veracity of this has yet to be confirmed.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Shmeg is very boastful and self-important, but rarely gets much respect.

* PapaWolf: Is easily the most protective of the young emperor.

Class: Samurai\\

* AlternateIdentityAmnesia: The childish side seems to retain no memories from his actions as his protector. It's yet to be determined if the reverse is true.
* AssShove: The long and short of what "boofing" is. Among the objects he inserts into his butt are magic crystals and a gold piece.
* CatchPhrase: His shift to Serious!Anaalius is often heralded by the words: [[VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077 "Wake the fuck up, Samurai."]]
* CloudCuckoolander: Anaalius is an... [[AssShove odd]] fellow, even at the best of times.
* CoolSword: Tomorrow, [[spoiler:and Now.]]
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Anaalius is a useless goofball most of the time, but when his serious side comes out, he's a force to be reckoned with.
* TheLoad: Silly!Anaalius is completely useless in combat, spending most of his time playing around, unaware of any battle happening around him.
* ManChild: Silly!Anaalius is cheery and goofy, and spends time in combat smelling flowers and making sandcastles.
* MeaningfulName: A man who loves to stick stuff up his ass named '''Anaal'''ius '''Penetrat'''ius
* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Spends a lot of Episode 4 pantsless due to needing to boof crystals to gain more information.
* NonActionGuy: Silly!Anaalius is basically a non-combatant.
* ObliviousToLove: He is hilariously unaware of [[spoiler:Mataal Ika's crush on him.]]
* OddFriendship: With Mataal Ika.
* SplitPersonality: Has two idenities; a childlike goofball who copes with day to day life and a serious protector to defend against threats.
* TheStoner: ''Oh yes.'' Anaalius is a big fan of drugs, and his boofing is a way to trip. His love of dope is so great that it takes coercion and a lot of restraint to not leave a drug-addled Brewbad to drown in favor of getting high on [[FantasticDrug Black Silver]]. His character art even has a little weed symbol on it.
* TrueNeutral: An odd example. Silly!Anaalius is solidly ChaoticNeutral, while Serious!Anaalius is LawfulNeutral, which shakes him out to neutrality as a whole.
* UnusualEuphemism: [[AssShove Boofing]].
* WarriorPoet: Serious!Anaalius is a skilled samurai who enjoys drinking tea, having philosophical discussions with his fellow swordsmen, and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers shoving things into his butt]].
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Anaalius doesn't wear a shirt.
* WingedHumanoid: In ''Scrolls'' they were just sticks on his back, but by the time of ''The Divine Wind'', they've upgraded to full wings, most likely to represent the upgrade to Level 3 giving him access to his Radiant Soul.

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/Kiwo Kiwo]]\\
Race: Tiefling\\

Class: Sorcerer (Wild Mage)\\

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Scribbles ends up [[spoiler:becoming an Apprentice to Tyre by writing a passage into the Scroll of Not'Chek without knowing a lot of the ramifications.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: While she's generally a quiet and somewhat anxious girl, her party's antics have gotten her to snap more than once, to the point where they are properly wary of making her angry. Especially when she's holding her crossbow.
* ButtMonkey: Even among a very hapless party, Scribbles stands out as getting absolutely no respect from anyone.
* BuxomIsBetter: Sometimes. See DependingOnTheArtist below.
* ControlFreak: According to the player. Scribbles is determined to learn how to control her [[WildMagic volatile magic]] and has spent most of her time prior to her adventures in Scrolls of Not'Chek in the library searching for a way to get a hold of the font of power within her. [[spoiler: Considering that she's now the Apprentice of Tyre, only time where her ambitions will lead her.]]
* CuteBookworm: A quiet and somewhat shy and clumsy girl who practically lived in the library in her Master's mansion, but tends to get swept along for the ride due to the chaos her party members cause. She is rarely seen without her personal 'Wizard' book that she uses as either a diary more often than not. She has her [[RageBreakingPoint limits though]], and her party is justifiably wary of pissing her off.
* DependingOnTheArtist: Kiwo, Scribbles's player, changes her character's token art frequently to showcase the talent of the community's artists. As such, Scribbles has had a variety of changes to her appearance, including skin color, horn length, and bust size.
* HearingVoices: During the month timeskip that lead into the Divine Wind, [[spoiler: Scribbles heard whispers from an unknown source every night while she slept.]] It was made clear after a discussion with the Archmage of Gleis Azolon that the source of these whispers [[spoiler: was the Mad Wizard Tyre.]]
* ImageSong: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84X07cYs63k Aren't you tired of being nice?]]
* LawfulGood: Her alignment at the start of the adventure, although it shifts to LawfulNeutral after her harrowing experience in the scroll.
* NervousWreck: Her anxiety, combined with the antics of her very chaotic party, causes her to be panicky and easily overwhelmed.
* NoRespectGuy: No one really gives Scribbles a break.
* PowerTattoo: Had tattoos of silver moonlight and a symbol of the moon grafted [[FacialMarkings on her forehead]] and skin after [[spoiler: becoming an Apprentice.]] In Divine Wind this is shown to have formed into three different moon symbols.
* TheSmartGuy: Pegged as the most intelligent party member.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: The only girl of the party, and the only girl for most of ''Scrolls of Not'Chek''
* SquishyWizard: The most fragile party member, but with the firepower to back it up. Most evident in the fight with Norubaga, where she does massive damage to the boss with [[PlayingWithFire Burning Hands]], but knocks herself out with her own Wild Magic surge.
* TookALevelInCynicism: Scribbles' time in the Scroll of Not'Chek does not do much for her optimism, and her alignment shifts to LawfulNeutral at the end of it.

!!!Ink and Blood
[[folder:Kouki Subeuroko]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/tomfawkes Tom Fawkes]]\\
Race: Gekoi\\
Class: Cleric (Undead)\\
----

* BadPowersGoodPeople: Kouki is not a big fan of his powers over undeath, and tries to avoid using them unless absolutely necessary.
* FirstFriend: Implied to be this to Elliot [[spoiler:which makes their falling out all the more tragic.]]
* IOweYouMyLife: A rather literal example, as Kouki ''literally'' owes Crowley his life. At one point in his past, Kouki was on the verge of death, and in his desperation pleaded for help to literally ''anyone'' who would listen. Unfortunately, he got Crowley, who saved him in exchange for service as his cleric. The only reason he continues to serve the Lord of Undeath is because he's terrified that [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness if Crowley ever stops seeing him as useful, he'll drop dead on the spot]]. And if that wasn't bad enough, he's also terrified that if he dies for ''any'' reason before he can find a way out from under Crowley's thumb, then his soul will belong to Crowley forever.
* NiceGuy: Friendly, kind, and doesn't make assumptions of people.
* ThirdPersonPerson: Kouki always speaks in the third person, and not just when referring to himself either. He avoids using pronouns altogether, essentially speaking a more intelligent version of HulkSpeak.
--> '''Kouki''': Kouki is Kouki.

* StraightMan: To Jerry.

[[folder:Jerry]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/Chilledchaos Chilled Chaos]]\\
Race: Half-Elf\\
Class: Rogue (Gregorian)\\

* BigBrotherWorship: Downplayed, as they aren't related. It's very obvious how much Jerry looks up to Ral, and always defaults to him when he needs to share information or opinions with the party.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Jerry's inexperience and lack of forethought tends to get him in trouble with his fellow party members.
* KleptomaniacHero: Part and parcel for a rogue. When Ral revealed his tentacle arms to the party, Jerry's immediate thought was of how good they'd be at stealing things, which is probably why he cozied up to Ral in the first place.
* LeeroyJenkins: Tends to act without thinking of the consequences, a habit that causes his party a lot of grief.
* NoIndoorVoice: Has significant issues being quiet.

[[folder:Elliot Mylic]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/ellohime Ellohime]]\\
Race: Human\\
Class: Monk (Way of Mercy)\\

* BerserkButton: As a follower of Lorn, he ''hates'' the undead. [[spoiler:Learning of Kouki's status as an Undead Cleric of Crowley immediately puts a strain on their relationship, and possibly destroys their growing friendship.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Very kind, but it's a bad idea to piss him off. Jerry learns this quickly, [[spoiler:as does Kouki. Notably, after witnessing Kouki summoning undead, there was a very real chance that he was going to attack the Gekoi rather than the akuma they were fighting.]]
* CoolOldGuy: Quite old, and just as combat capable as his party.
* CreepyGood: Elliot's an unsettling person, but despite his quirks, he's generally the kind and helpful sort.
* CreepyMonotone: Always speaks very slowly and without much emotion, even when delighted or furious. His voice is often compared to that of [[VideoGame/HalfLife the G-Man]].
* FriendlessBackground: Implied to not have had many friends in life, given how taken aback he is by Kouki's kindness.
* StealthHiBye: Accidentally catches his party by surprise once or twice after scouting ahead.
* TranquilFury: Enters this after [[spoiler:Kouki summons undead in front of him.]]

[[folder:Kaju Magi]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/aleks Aleks]] \\
Race: Kobold\\
Class: Warlock\\
Patron: The Death That Lives\\

* CompellingVoice: His "Suggestion" is probably the one skill that he's really had much effectiveness with. In the battle against the bandits, he convinced one to be too frightened of Ratticus to attack him, and [[spoiler: when Block hears about their plan to swindle Dozo and goes to try to warn him, Kaju convinces him to return to the tavern instead.]]
* IneptMage: He previously attended a magic school but flunked out.
* MinorInjuryOverreaction: In the battle against the bandits, when one catches up to him and deals a minor hit, he panickedly calls out to the others about being in danger... while the rest of the party was already incapacitated or very nearly so by that point. Naturally, no one's amused.
* SanityBall: Kaju is the only one with ''any'' reservations about [[spoiler:performing rituals for Crowley]]. He's also the only one with any good ideas about how to deal with Machio's depression: namely, an emotional support animal.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Opts to leave Dik Cok to die rather than rescue him from the Black Silver Bandits, alongside Rattacus.
* TheStoner: Kaju enjoys all manner of recreational drugs. Pretty much the very first thing he does after his introduction is find a secluded area so he can smoke a blunt, and later he eagerly buys out a shady merchant's entire supply of [[FantasticDrug Black Silver]].

[[folder:Rattacus]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/PENTA Penta]]\\
Race: [[RatMen Ratfolk]]\\
Class: [[TheBard Jester Bard]]\\

* AbsurdPhobia: Gains a fear of pants after drinking a mixture of random potions that had spilled onto the ground. It is unclear if he still retains the fear after the potion wears off.
* BlobMonster: Another effect of the potion mixture he drank caused his body to turn into gelatin, though rather than becoming a formless blob he kept his own shape and could still move and attack normally. However, combined with the ''third'' effect of the mixture, which caused his fur to turn white, this unfortunately made him look like a sentient, rat-shaped blob of semen. It wears off by the next session.
* DeadpanSnarker: The deadpannest, and the snarkiest.
* DeathSeeker: Rattacus is suicidal, and often begs for death.
* TheEeyore: Rattacus is very depressed and speaks in the same flat, emotionless way as the TropeNamer.
* FairWeatherFriend: Best shown in the battle against the bandits, when his support would shift repeatedly based on whoever happened to be doing well at the moment. At one point, he tried to ditch the battle altogether[[note]](In fairness, he did throw Machio a heal first.)[[/note]], only to come back when the party regained the upper hand.
* ManipulativeBastard: Is arguably the most responsible for the group's descent into insanity, all while neatly tossing all blame for it off of himself. Fittingly, he also has a bonus to Persuasion.
* MasterOfDisguise: Has the Disguise Self spell, which leads to the party coming up with a plan to have him disguise as a woman and deliberately get kidnapped by the traffickers so they can track down Dozo's daughter. Later he proposes a different plan: [[spoiler:He disguises himself as ''the daughter'' and the party turns him into Dozo to collect the reward without doing any work]]. They try the first plan first, which doesn't work. Then he and Kaju split from the party to go try the second plan, which ''does'' work... [[spoiler:until the rest of the party shows up to try the same plan with Eli disguised as the daughter]].
* NeverMyFault: Always redirects blame off of himself to his fellow party members.
* SadClown: Rattacus is very depressed and often wishes for death, despite his goofy jester outfit.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Opts to leave Dik Cok to die rather than rescue him from the Black Silver Bandits, alongside Kaju.
* StockAnimalDiet: As a rat-man, he really likes cheese.

[[folder:Eli Bloodbane]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/cyr Cyr]]\\
Race: Human\\
Class: Cleric (Blood)\\
Deity: Crowley\\

* TheBigEasy: Has the voice of a fire-and-brimstone preacher straight out of N'awlins.
* BookDumb: Doesn't actually know the first thing about the god he's supposed to be a cleric of, claiming to have never actually studied or paid attention in any of his classes. He still manages to successfully perform rituals to Crowley on pure faith alone, however [[spoiler:the second time he performs a ritual, his lack of basic knowledge backfires on him spectacularly and he accidentally starts a ZombieApocalypse that he has no control over]]. He vows to actually start studying after that.
* FunctionalAddict: Gets addicted to [[FantasticDrug Black Silver]] after one dose.
--> '''Eli''': [[BlatantLies I can quit whenever I want!]]
* ItIsPronouncedTroPAY: His accent leads to some humorous pronunciations, most notably his frequent pronunciation of "enemy" as "enema".
* PaperThinDisguise: [[spoiler:When the party splits, he, Machio, and Dik Cok try the fake daughter plan with ''him'' disguised as the daughter since Rattacus isn't around. Since he can't magically disguise himself like Rattacus, he has to do it the old fashioned way. Said disguise consists of gluing cut-off pieces of Machio's hair to his own to make it longer, and possibly putting on a dress. No attempt is made to disguise his glowing white eyes or full beard, or to give him horns to look more like a Ho'ask. It still works, and the only reason they run into problems at all is because Kaju and Rattacus had already done the fake daughter plan themselves, and were still at Dozo's house]].
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: Sheepishly admits that the only reason he managed to become a cleric at all is due to his family's connections, as he put absolutely no effort into his studies, and it shows.

[[folder:Machio Manis]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/willneff Willneff]]\\
Race: Aasimar (Titan)\\
Class: Barbarian (Scarseeker)\\

* ApologeticAttacker: When the rest of the party makes him [[spoiler:kill Block]], he is profusely and tearfully apologizing to his victim, very much not wanting to go through with it.
* BarbarianHero: He ''tries'' to be one, but the antics of rest of his party sadly make it impossible for him to be a good guy.
* {{BFS}}: As a Barbarian, his WeaponOfChoice is a two-handed greatsword.
* TheBigGuy: One of the most battle-capable members of the party, doing much of the heavy lifting in the one combat encounter.
* BizarreTasteInFood: There is nothing sweeter to him than the milk of a Ho'ask woman, to the point that he would gladly accept it instead of money as a reward for rescuing Dozo's daughter.
* CanonForeigner: "Titan Aasimar" is not a real subrace in any edition of ''Dungeons & Dragons'' - it's a homebrew subrace made up specifically for Machio to justify his size shifting.
* CrazyEnoughToWork: The "Bush Plan". He gathered the party into a wagon that they had found and piled bushes on top of them so that he could travel the forest posing as a "bush-seller". When confronted by bandits intent on stealing his wares, he managed to convince them to fix his wagon wheel first, perfectly positioning them for the hidden party members to attack. This actually succeeds in catching the entire group of bandits off-guard, allowing the party to kill two of them before they even have a chance to retaliate, which Arcadum makes clear is in large part due to how utterly ludicrous the plan was.
* DespairEventHorizon: Machio has a crisis after [[spoiler:killing Block for basically no reason]]. This isn't helped by the fact that his party members constantly harass him for this after the fact, and place the blame entirely on him when they were the ones who forced him to do it.
* {{Expy}}: An extremely blatant one of "Macho Man" Wrestling/RandySavage. ''OOOOH YEEEAUH!''
* LudicrousGibs: Once he really got going in the battle against the bandits, the bandits he killed generally ended up this way.
* OverlyPrePreparedGag: His PreAsskickingOneLiner before the first battle of the campaign, which is the culmination of the "Bush Plan" outlined above:
-->'''Machio:''' I got bad news. We only have one type of bush for sale.\\
'''Bandit:''' What's that?\\
'''Machio:''' IT'S AN ''AM''-BUSH!
* {{Retirony}}: Nonlethal variant. [[spoiler:Machio comes to the conclusion that the group is terrible at adventuring, and plan on settling down at a bar and forgetting the whole escapade after it ends... right before the group gets caught for their actions.]]
* SizeShifter: As a Titan Aasimar, he has the ability to temporarily double in size.
* SupremeChef: His goal at the start was to become one of these, but that goal is increasingly unlikely to be achieved as the campaign spirals further and further into insanity.
* TokenGoodTeammate: The only member with any sort of moral compass, although it quickly gets smashed and pissed on by his party. Notably the only member who finds any issue with the plan to [[spoiler:return a fake daughter to Dozo to collect the reward without doing any work]].
* UrineTrouble: Getting pissed on is apparently the punishment for stealing in his barbarian tribe.

[[folder:Dik Cok]]
Player: [[https://twitch.tv/Spaceboy Spaceboy]]\\
Race: Goblin\\
Class: Rogue\\
Deity: Black Pantheon\\

* ButtMonkey: Gets peed on, gets his eyepatch used as a thong, gets hurled off a cliff, gets repeatedly sent to the Dream Realm over and over, gets trapped in the midst of a Depthar/Mistwalker clash... the list goes on.
* FullNameBasis: Rarely if ever addressed by anything other than his full name.
* KleptomaniacHero: Tries to rob pretty much everyone, to varying levels of success.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Is quite capable in combat, singlehandedly taking out nearly as many bandits as [[TheBigGuy Machio]], and scared off their leader to boot. However, since this is the only real combat encounter the party ends up in, [[ButtMonkey this doesn't help him much after that]].
* RealMenWearPink: Is capable of sewing, which he justifies by likening it to stabbing repeatedly with very tiny blades.
* ScreamingWarrior: Every attack he unleashes is accompanied by a slew of profanity.
* StealthBasedMission: Ends up in one after being captured and knocked out, then waking up right in the middle of [[spoiler: the ZombieApocalypse that Eli had mistakenly brought about, leaving him with little choice but to try and sneak out of the situation undetected. Fortunately for him, he succeeds.]]
* UnfortunateNames: His name is ''Dik Cok'', pronounced exactly how you think it is, which gets the expected reactions when he introduces himself to the rest of the party.

[[folder:Major [=NPCs=]]]
!Mouth
* EyelessFace: His face consists of nothing more than an oversized, toothy maw.
* {{Familiar}}: He's Kaju's familiar, whether Kaju wants him to be or not.
* HoldYourHippogriffs: He uses "I'll be saved" in place of "I'll be damned", since as a demon [[BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad he presumably considers being damned to be a good thing]]. Arcadum is subsequently disappointed that nobody got the joke.
* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Kaju's intent was to summon an emotional support animal to help Machio get over his trauma from [[spoiler:killing Block]], most likely something cute and fluffy. He got Mouth instead. To Mouth's credit, he ''does'' help Machio... kind of.
* ObviouslyEvil: When Kaju tries to present a disguised Rattacus to Dozo with Mouth in tow, Arcadum doesn't bother with a Deception check for him because, as he put it, there's absolutely ''no'' chance that the Ho'Ask will trust ''anything'' he has to say.
* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Tends to get uncomfortably close when speaking to someone.

* HeKnowsTooMuch: The party discuss their plan to [[spoiler: return an imposter in place of Dozo's daughter right in front of him.]]
* SmallRoleBigImpact: A standard bartender [=NPC=], until [[spoiler: Machio being forced to kill him effectively ends his attempts at remaining a heroic character]].
* SupremeChef: According to Machio, he is a culinary master.
* WalkingSpoiler: As a fairly nondescript [=NPC=], there's not much reason for him to have an individual entry here, other than [[spoiler: that the party forces Machio to murder him]].

!Dozo Gourd
* CannotTellALie: As a Ho'Ask, he refuses to lie as a part of his culture. As you might expect, this results in him getting ''extra'' pissed when he realizes that [[spoiler: that the party tried to get out of rescuing his daughter by bringing him an imposter instead]].
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Let's just say that entrusting ''this'' party with getting his daughter back wasn't the wisest move.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: When the party returns from their initial task pretty much empty-handed save for news that the caravan was destroyed and his daughter was kidnapped, he recognizes that they did accomplish what he asked and pays them with no further complaint. He treats his request for them to recover his daughter as a separate task.

!Elwreath
* AuthorAvatar: There's a brief moment of this with him when he's torturing Dik Cok for information, when he chastises Dik Cok for not bothering to remember any details of the campaign he was taking part in. Though Arcadum makes clear that this is just good-natured ribbing and not meant to be taken ''too'' seriously.
* GoodPowersBadPeople: His healing abilities are put to use to torture Dik Cok by repeatedly knocking him out to send him to the Dream Realm, healing him just enough to rouse him, and then knock him out again the next time he's caught lying. He continues this until he runs out of healing spells, at which point he leaves Dik Cok in the Dream Realm until he wakes up on his own.
* LivingLieDetector: Has a spell that allows him to sense lies, and punishes Dik Cok every time the Goblin tries to lie to him.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: His camp was overrun by the Deptharian corruption unleashed by Eli, and one of his lieutenants is shown being killed by the Fleshcrimes that came about as a result of it, but his own fate is currently uncertain.

* IOweYouMyLife: A rather literal example, as Kouki ''literally'' owes Crowley his life. At one point in his past, Kouki was on the verge of death, and in his desperation pleaded for help to literally ''anyone'' who would listen. Unfortunately, he got Crowley. The only reason he continues to serve the Lord of Undeath is because he's terrified that [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness if Crowley ever stops seeing him as useful, he'll drop dead on the spot]] and remain under his thumb in the afterlife forever.

* TimePolice: Part of his duty as per the Oath of the Time Warden. He takes signifigant issue with the loom and amber and their potential to alter fate.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: His camp was overrun by the Deptharian corruption unleashed by Eli, and one of his lieutenants is shown being killed by the Flesh Crimes that came about as a result of it, but his own fate is currently uncertain.

* EmbarrassingNickname: The players of "Death and Debts"/"Steel and Silence" have taken to referring to Arcadum as [[TeamDad "Dungeon Daddy"]], which they mean as an AffectionateNickname, but he tends to see more as this. He at a couple of points tried referring to himself as "Dungeon Father", but it didn't do much to dissuade the group.

* CyBorg: Adds more and more mechanical parts to himself as the campaigns go on.

[[folder:Scrumpo]]

* BarbieDollAnatomy: Claims to neither have a penis nor a butthole.

* CompellingVoice: His "Suggestion" is probably the one skill that he's really had much effectiveness with. In the battle against the bandits, he convinced one to be too frightened of Ratticus to attack him, and [[spoiler: when Block hears about their plan to swindle the Headman and goes to try to warn him, Kaju convinces him to return to the tavern instead.]]

* MasterOfDisguise: Has the Disguise Self spell, which leads to the party formulating a plan to [[spoiler:have him disguise himself as the headman's kidnapped daughter so they can get the reward for "rescuing" her without having to do any work]], which gets put into practice in Session 4.

* PaperThinDisguise: [[spoiler:In the absence of Rattacus, he volunteers to be disguised as the headman's daughter so they can scam him for the reward. Said disguise consists of gluing cut-off pieces of Machio's hair to his own to make it longer, and possibly putting on a dress. No attempt is made to disguise his glowing white eyes or full beard, or to give him horns to look more like a Ho'ask. It still works, and the only reason they run into problems at all is because Kaju and Rattacus had already done the fake daughter plan themselves, and were still at the headman's house]].

* BizarreTasteInFood: There is nothing sweeter to him than the milk of a Ho'ask woman, to the point that he would gladly accept it instead of money as a reward for rescuing the headman's daughter.

* TokenGoodTeammate: The only member with any sort of moral compass, although it quickly gets smashed and pissed on by his party. Notably the only member who finds any issue with the plan to [[spoiler:return a fake daughter to the headman to collect the reward without doing any work]].

* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Kaju's intent was to summon an emotional support animal to help Machio get over his trauma from [[spoiler:killing Block]]. He got Mouth instead. To Mouth's credit, he ''does'' help Machio... kind of.
* ObviouslyEvil: When Kaju tries to present a disguised Rattacus to the Headman with Mouth in tow, Arcadum doesn't bother with a Deception check for him because, as he put it, there's absolutely ''no'' chance that the Ho'Ask will trust ''anything'' he has to say.

* HeKnowsTooMuch: The party discuss their plan to [[spoiler: return an imposter in place of the Headman's daughter right in front of him.]]

* DependingOnTheArtist: Kiwo, Scribbles's player, changes her character's token art frequently to showcase the talent of the community's artist. As such, Scribbles has had a variety of changes to her appearance, including skin color, horn length, and bust size.

* IOweYouMyLife: A rather literal example, as Kouki ''literally'' owes Crowley his life. At one point in his past, Kouki was on the verge of death, and in his desperation pleaded for help to literally ''anyone'' who would listen. Unfortunately, he got Crowley. The only reason he continues to serve the Lord of Undeath is because he's terrified that [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness if Crowley ever stops seeing him as useful, he'll drop dead on the spot]].

* TimePolice: Part of his duty as per the Oath of the Time Warden.

* NiceHat: Has a nice cap, which he gives to Vaeri in "Death and Debts".

* PowerFist: Her weapons of choice are [[DualWielding a pair of clawed gauntlets]].
* RummageSaleReject: Vaeri is described as wearing pieces of broken armor held together by leather straps, due to having trouble finding armor that fits her properly. She was particularly excited when Babylon provided her with new clawed gauntlets specially made for her.

!Sad Derrick
* BusCrash: Near the end of the 'Steel and Silence' campaign, Arcadum off-handedly mentioned that he died off-screen. Though it turned out that he was kidding.
* GreenThumb: As a druid. Since he hangs out in the sewer, this ability is mostly used to tend to the mushrooms there.

* RedBaron: "The Lord of Nightmares", "The Suffering Sage", "Father Fear", "The Dark Truth".

Class: Wild Magic Sorcerer\\

* KickTheDog: While he's overall a NiceGuy, he has few moments of this, such as withholding several pieces of the Splittree when the Treant at Greenbramble asks for what they recovered, as he wanted to have them crafted into items (though this almost comes back to bite him when it turns out that the Treant was planning to do exactly that anyway), and making some jabs at Coots over killing Afalia when he was clearly already guilty about it.

Class: Wild Magic Sorcerer\\

* PintsizedPowerHouse: Is quite capable in combat, singlehandedly taking out nearly as many bandits as [[TheBigGuy Machio]], and scared off their leader to boot. However, since this is the only real combat encounter the party ends up in, [[ButtMonkey this doesn't help him much after that]].

![=Glies=]

[[folder:Recurring Major [=NPCs=]]]
!Otami Kurosai
* BigBad: Shaping up to be one of these to the Glies Arc.
* DespotismJustifiesTheMeans: Seems to be his intent as he spreads his empire across Glies.
* TheEmpire: Is the head of the one that serves as a major threat in Glies, the Eclipse.
* {{Expy}}: Is a reference to Oda Nobunaga.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: He's almost always referred to by his title, "The Pale Emperor".
* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: He is stated to gained his powers from sources that no one should.

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/ludwig Ludwig]]\\
Race: Halfling\\
Class: [[BareFistedMonk Monk]]\\
Deity: Sekelcuse\\

* AchievementsInIgnorance: For a character whose greatest dream is to become capable of flight, it's rather fortuitous that he chose to travel to Glies of all places, despite not being aware that kites are the primary mode of transportation there.
* AllLovingHero: Is an especially friendly person, and quickly establishes bonds with the rest of the party, with Stinkler through the fact that he was raised by Goliaths, with Dirst through their shared short statures, and with Mori through his admiration of the latter's ability to fly. He's more confused by the Goker, but is friendly with him as well.
* CherryTapping: [[spoiler: Coots finishes off the Steward of Rot with a single Dart to the head, after the Goker brought it down to a single hit point by throwing his guitar at it.]]
* {{Flight}}: One of his greatest dreams is to become capable of this. He naturally idolizes [[BatPeople Mori]] as a result, who informs him about kites being the primary mode of travel in Glies, and would later train him in how to use them.
* HeroesPreferSwords: His main WeaponOfChoice outside of [[BarefistedMonk his bare hands]].
* MercyKill: He delivers a sneak attack to Afalia, unaware that she was a noncombatant until he {{One Hit Kill}}s her with it. Given [[TheCorruption the state that she was implied to be in]], it's arguable that his actions could count as this, and Mori consoles him by pointing out that likelihood after the fact.
* PreMortemOneLiner: He attempts to TrashTalk the Steward of Rot throughout the battle with it, though his shakiness undermines the effect a bit. He eventually manages to get a confident line off [[spoiler: just before delivering the attack that finishes it.]]
-->'''Coots''': Hey, Steward of Rot! Go fuck yourself!
* RaisedByNatives: Possibly. He was raised by Goliaths, though his backstory has yet to go into detail as to how exactly this came to happen.
* StealthExpert: Upon gaining his Way of the Shadow Monastic Tradition, he's able to cloak himself and his party.
* SwissArmyWeapon: When the party returns pieces of the Splittree to Greenbramble to have items crafted from them, Coots has his turned into [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender a staff that can convert into a kite]].
* ThrowingTheDistraction: When the party first arrives at the Geckoi village, he throws a rock behind Bright-Eyes when Goker randomly prompts him to do so. [[ChekhovsSkill He would later use this trick]] to allow the party to get past the Sactified Hydra.
-->That's just distracting!
* WideEyedIdealist: A very trusting person, probably best shown when he gives a potion to The Goker... immediately after he had just drank one of his own for no reason other than liking the taste.

[[folder:Dirst the First]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dirst_1.png]]

Player: [[https://www.twitch.tv/takahata101 Takahata101]]\\
Race: [[OurGoblinsAreDifferent Goblin]]\\
Class: Cleric of the Coin\\
Deity: Nero\\

* ConMan: At the least has aspirations to be one. When a group of Geckoi show the party paper talismans that they use to ward off corruption, his first thought is to create counterfeits of them to sell.
* DesignatedPointMan: When a situation comes up where someone needs to scout ahead, he's usually the one who gets pushed into doing it.
* {{Expy}}: Has been stated to be one to [[Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine Quark]], though [=Takahata101=] is also prone to making the occasional reference to the goblins of [[Franchise/WarcraftExpandedUniverse WarCraft]].
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite his occasional abrasiveness and OnlyInItForTheMoney attitude, he takes no issue when the party opts to take an additional risk in the effort to do the right thing, and will often put himself on the line to help his party, even if he usually scurries back to a safe distance afterward.
* NiceHat: A fancy top hat.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Is on the voyage in the first place in search of money-making opportunities, and introduces himself as a healer for hire.
* PowerIsSexy: He seems to think so, as brought up in one conversation when he mentioned being attracted to dragons, not due to anything about their physical appearances, but just because they're powerful.
* ProneToVomiting: Had already thrown up multiple times before characters introductions were even over, presumably due to seasickness, though proximity to Smellgore may have been a contributing factor.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: When the party is faced with the chamber containing the BigBad of the campaign, Durst tries to turn around and leave, only to slip on a rock and fall backwards into it anyway.[[note]]Mind you, this was solely played in-character; Takahata himself had no intention of actually bailing[[/note]]
* SharpDressedMan: Decked out in a nice suit.
* SupportPartyMember: While he has a few means of attack, he's mostly set up for healing and support.
* TurnUndead: He has this spell. Given many of the enemy encounters that the Lost at Sea party deals with, he turns the tide of battle on more than one occasion with this alone.

Player: [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsvn_Po0SmunchJYOWpOxMg videogamedunkey]]\\
Race: [[LizardFolk Geckoi]]\\
Class: [[TheBard Jester Bard]]\\

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Is much more amiable than the character he takes after, taking no issue when Captain Keena Stoneheart puts him to work in the kitchen, and going out of his way to help out his group in combat when they're in trouble.
* CompulsiveLiar: Goker lies frequently, often to make himself seem more impressive.
* {{Expy}}: of ComicBook/TheJoker.
* FingerGun: The act of him granting Bardic Inspiration to another member of the party is portrayed as him giving them this gesture.
* KleptomaniacHero: Goker often attempts to take items for himself.
* KnifeNut: Exceptionally skilled with a knife, though he's first shown displaying this by [[MundaneUtility chopping up some carrots]].
* NauseaFuel: His drinking two potions despite not actually needing them turns out to not be a problem when he demonstrates the ability to regurgitate them back up, with the potions retaining full effectiveness. In one case, ''directly into Mori's mouth''.
* OverlyLongTongue: As a Geckoi, he has an especially long, prehensile one.
* PowerBornOfMadness: At one point in battle against [[BigBad The Steward of Rot]], he was knocked unconscious, but managed to recover on his own through a natural 20 on a Death Save, which is played in-character as invoking this. Then subverted when he's knocked out again shortly afterward.
-->Madness gave you life, but the body is weak.
* SharpDressedMan: Being who he is, he's naturally clad in a nice tux.
* ShockAndAwe: With his Thunder Wave spell.
* SignatureInstrument: A guitar that he had gotten made from a piece of the Splittree when the party returned them to Greenbramble. [[spoiler: Until he throws it at the Steward of Rot as his last attack against it before Coots finishes it off.]]
* {{Sizeshifter}}: He's capable of invoking this with his Enlarge spell, usually on Mori.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: With his 'Speak with Animals' spell. It sees a fair bit of use, such as completely bypassing combat with a massive snakelike creature by determining that it was simply hungry and convincing it to eat most of the party's rations instead of trying to hunt them, or convincing a bunch of leeches to detach from him.
* TrashTalk: Weaponized with 'Vicious Mockery'.
* WildCard: Will often do odd or ill-advised things, such as drinking two potions when he wasn't even damaged or in any immediate danger, leaping into a deep well just after being saved from falling into it, or attempting to finish a battle by performing a FastballSpecial with Coots, only to accidentally drop him into the hole where they had most of the enemies trapped instead. To his credit, whenever he causes a mess with his antics, he's typically quick to help clean things back up again.
