* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: Ice King is a loony ice wizard prone to kidnap princesses. Tree Trunks is a miniature, yellow elephant that bakes exquisite apple pies and is in love with a pig. Shelby is a worm that spends most of his time hanging out inside a dog's viola. NEPTR is a makeshift robot made of a microwave and a can, designed to produce pies out of nothingness, and given life by one of Ice King's magical lightning. And Lemongrab is Princess Bubblegum's failed attempt at creating sentient life, is literally made of lemon matter, and has a temper as sour as his namesake. Very misfitting, indeed, especially considering Ice King forgot NEPTR was his (kind of) son.

* PlotTailoredToTheParty: {{Invoked}} by Ice King. He knocks out and brings together the other four members because of their specific aptitudes. Tree Trunk's baking skills are needed in the second room of the dungeon to lure out the rat and, thus, uncover the trapdoor. Shelby, as a worm, is meant to be used as bait for the monster fish in the third room -- he convinces Tree Trunks to do it instead, though. Lemongrab's lemon juice essence is the WeaksauceWeakness of the Tentacle Monster, who promptly explodes after squishing Lemongrab. Finally, BMO is an anthropomorphized gaming console so he could easily hack the mainframe of the central and last room's door. However, Ice King grabbed NEPTR instead. NEPTR is still able to fulfill the role by throwing a pie at the door, therefore short-circuiting it. Ice King's exact role remains unclear, but he still helps get them all through the dungeon by using his robe as a makeshift parachute.
