[[folder: Yoglabs]]

!!In general
* AffablyEvil: None of them really seem that rude or unpleasant.
* MadScientist: Most of the science team are shown to have varying quirks, but Dr Srivaramen really takes the cake.
* PunchClockVillain: Odds are that if they aren't in the science team, they're this.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Doctor Testificate M.D and Prof Brightmeer are this for the science team.
* VillainProtagonist: Applies to most of them.

!! Doctor Testificate, M.D.
Formerly a character belonging to the Eden project map, he was later promoted to the Yoglabs team.
* AscendedExtra: Initially just another character created by somebody who made an adventure map, he has since become a part of Yoglabs.
* BadassBookworm: Confirmed when he survives the zombie onslaught at Yoglabs.
* BadassLongcoat: Part of his skin.
* ButtMonkey: Bad things often happen to him. In the adventure map that Lewis and Simon took his character from he was blown up "accidentally" by Simon, then in Yoglabs he got locked in the medbay with the Little Maids, was cut up partially and shot, then had his blood taken for cloning at which point his clone was murdered.
* DisproportionateRetribution: He ends up being shot nonfatally by Lewis for not renewing his combat license.
* MissionControl: "Acts" as this for Simon and Lewis during their taking back of Yoglabs.
* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Not so much in the adventure map that he first appears in, but in Yoglabs this trope is in full effect, given how the setting basically has him working with the bad guys. We don't see him doing anything bad, however.
* TheyKilledKenny: He keeps coming back despite being maimed constantly and wounded fatally more than once. It's implied that the versions of him that die are clones.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Lewis and Dr. Srivaramen cut him up and turn some of his body parts into zombies, then Lewis shoots him for not renewing his combat record. He gets better.

!! Dr. Srivaramen
Part of the Yoglabs team, and notably much more off the rails than Doctor Testificate M.D.
* AdmiringTheAbomination: He loves the mutants he creates, even though they're dangerous and rather weird.
* AffablyEvil: Lewis describes him as a nice man, and he indeed comes across as a polite guy, but he's also a nutty mad scientist. After chopping up Doctor Testificate, he immediately does his best to see that he's nursed back to health.
* AmbiguouslyBrown: Discussed. While his name sounds Indian and Simon voices him with an Indian accent, Lewis isn't sure as to whether or not he comes from India or if he's a Native American.
* AndCallHimGeorge: Gives names to the mutants he creates.
* AxeCrazy: The guy is absolutely crazy. He helped Lewis chop up poor Doctor Testificate M.D and turn some of his body into zombies.
* BadassBookworm: Survives a mutant enderman onslaught.
* BadassLongcoat: A labcoat covered in blood, which is part of his skin.
* DeadlyDoctor: Given how he's in charge of genetic engineering and his labcoat is covered in blood, and that most of his experiments are extremely dangerous, he qualifies. See AxeCrazy for further details.
** He also offhandedly mentions that he lost his medical license, implying he was really bad at healing people.
* IntentionalEngrishForFunny: "Hello sirs, it's very please to meet you!", which is also the first line he ever says.
* MadScientist: The guy makes Lewis' Yoglabs persona look sane.
* WouldHurtAChild: He feeds his pet zombie mutant testificate children.

!!Prof. Brightmeer
A medical assistant at Yoglabs, who helps Simon during the "Bad Trip" episode.

* {{Cyborg}}: He appears to be one, having part of his face covered by metal plating.
* EveryoneHasStandards: He's appalled by the effect the drugs have on Simon and what they make him do, muttering sympathetically about the Testificates that died.
* TheMedic: His supposed position at Yoglabs.
* ShootTheDog: Briefly proposed when Simon is tripping out, and Brightmeer suggests a MercyKill... by incineration. Mercifully, Lewis delays him for a while and Simon recovers.

!!Professor Bixby

A member of Yoglabs staff, on their science team.

* AccidentalTruth: He claims that Girlfriend Island is "a dangerous place to be" when it appears to be an island paradise, and it's quite clearly meant to be a lie to cover up where he's going. Then the basilisks attack...
* AffablyEvil: A nice and grandfatherly scientist, who happens to be a ''literal'' grandfather... who happens to be working for Yoglabs (and is also a bit of a CovertPervert).
* BaldOfEvil: He's not ''that'' evil, but the trope still applies as he has no hair on his Minecraft skin.
* BlatantLies: When found at Girlfriend Island, he claims he's doing "important science". ''Sure''. That's totally not what Simon and Lewis were there to do.
* CoolOldGuy: He's quite a nice and funny guy.
* CovertPervert: Simon and Lewis find him in "Girlfriend Island" being followed by dozens of girlfriends, under the excuse of doing dangerous research.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Bixby evidently has a large, extended family, and is very proud of his grandson for passing his GCSE exams.
* EvilOldFolks: Sort of. He's working for Yoglabs, a morally deficient place, although he isn't that evil himself.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: When the basilisks arrive, he pulls out a fishing rod. Lewis and Simon mock him for it.
* NakedPeopleAreFunny: When Simon and Lewis find him during Girlfriend Island, they find he's almost completely nude.

!!Sergeant Herp

A soldier in Yoglabs employ.

* BolivianArmyEnding: Subverted. He gets dragged away by [[spoiler:a horde of giant bugs]], but manages to break free and escape.
* ButtMonkey: All his friends die [[spoiler:from the bug attack, he gets hit with a stray grenade when Simon presses the wrong button, then he gets dragged off by a swarm of bugs]].
* CowardlyLion: He fights reasonably well, given what happened.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: LovebleCoward traits aside, he does okay as a fighter.
* ShellShockedVeteran: It's confirmed after his appearance that he's getting treated, both physically and mentally.
* SoleSurvivor: On the attack on the Yoglabs Firebase, owing to [[spoiler:several giant bugs swarming it]]. He almost gets killed again, but narrowly manages to escape.

!!Voskoboynikov

A scientist in charge of drugs and medicines.

* HuskyRusskie: Voiced with a Russian accent.
* MadScientist: Counts on the grounds of making hallucinogenics for no good reason.

!!Bort

A mutant zombie and formerly one of the main projects of Yoglabs, he now works part-time as a bouncer and doorman.

* ArcVillain: For a non-canon animated adventure.
* DeathIsCheap: He's died at least once before, but now seems to be alive again.
* TheDragon: Technically to Dr_Srivaramen, although he's done little fighting for him. Later, Gozencrantz and Rildernstern hire him as their chief muscle and bouncer, although he stays out of the action.
* DumbMuscle: His intelligence has obviously taken a hit.
** DumbassNoMore: That said, he was once even stupider and incapable of speech. He's obviously gotten brighter.
* HulkSpeak: Downplayed. He doesn't speak entirely like this, but he's not exactly eloquent.
* MightyGlacier: Once he becomes a bouncer, he keeps his strength but appears to have slowed down a bit.
* TooDumbToFool: The reason that Gozencrantz and Rildernstern hire him as a bouncer to keep out intruders, since he won't be talked out of it.

!!Gozencrantz and Rildenstern

The joint heads of the cloning division.

* BigBad: [[spoiler:For the series as a whole, given their efforts to take over Yoglabs and kill off everyone for real. With that said, they seem to be followed by something ''worse''.]]
* BigBadDuumvirate They work as a pair.
* KickTheDog: [[spoiler:Rildenstern murders Simon's master clone and then tries doing the same to the others.]]
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Both of them get taken down by Simon and Lewis, and given that their plans involved killing everyone's Master Clones, they probably had their own ones taken offline.]]
* KnightOfCerebus: Downplayed. [[spoiler:Compared to Strawfingers, Skylord_Vitali or Israphel, these guys are downright hilarious, but their actions cause a rare dramatic and tragic ending to an episode and the stakes are raised significantly, even with the government's constant interference. To top that off, something even ''worse'' is implied to succeed them, if the twist ending is any clue.]]
* LargeHam: Gozencrantz's dialogue is read out this way.
* MadScientist: They're Yoglabs personnel, so it's practically a requirement.
* RedOniBlueOni: Gozencrantz is far too hammy for his own good. Rildenstern, on the other hand, is a little smarter and more sane.
* ShoutOutToShakespeare: To Rozencrantz and Gildenstern from Hamlet.
* TheStarscream: [[spoiler:They both seek to take over Yoglabs, although Rildenstern accepts that immediate control is unlikely.]]
* TakeOverTheWorld: [[spoiler:Their ultimate goal, although Rildenstern accepts that it's not going to be so easy as Gozencrantz hopes]].
* TooDumbToLive: [[spoiler:Yes, Gozencratz. You'd better go to that completely exposed toilet, after having just told the room your plans, rather than go with your partner in crime and get the plan done.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: You can probably guess a lot about them from the sheer amount of spoilered text.

!!Lalnibal Hector

A clone of Duncan being stored at Yoglabs. [[NoodleIncident He did something to get locked up]].

* AffablyEvil[=/=]FauxAffablyEvil: In his log detailing his cloning of Kim, he pauses to compliment the weather.
-->"Field testing will commence at once. What a lovely day!"
* AxeCrazy: According to Lewis, this is why he's been locked up. Although, considering the things he's been up to, his mannerisms from what we have witnessed and what they found in his lab in season 2 of Flux Buddies, he might have a point there.
** Pretty much confirmed in Flux Buddies episode 107, where he attacks Duncan's and Kim's base with a flamethrower while he's LaughingMad and [[EvilIsHammy hamming it up.]]
* BigBad: Shares the position with Hat Films in ''Flux Buddies''.
* BigBadEnsemble: He and Hat Films seem to operate independently of each other.
* EvilCounterpart: Supposedly to Duncan / Lalna, as he apparently takes some of his traits further.
* {{Pyromaniac}}: In Flux Buddies no.107, when he attacks the main base, he's having the time of his life while assaulting their buildings with a [[KillItWithFire Nether Bellows]]

!!The Government

The government of an unspecified nation (supposedly Minecraftia) that generally serve as the HeroAntagonist organisation to the VillainProtagonist Yoglabs company.

* BigGood They're the only organisation trying to take Yoglabs down.
* HeroAntagonist: Given the nature of Yoglabs and the fact that they are explicitly stated to be evil, they come across as this.
