| 8 | * DemotedToExtra: Pretty much all of them in season 3, with the series shifting its focus to Mewni. |
| 9 | * HumansAreAverage: Humanity in general is pretty bland compared to the rest of the multiverse: Mewmans have cheekmarks and access to magic, demons have fire powers, and we can't forget monsterkind either. At best, humans seem to be pretty open-minded, but that's it. |
| 10 | * RidiculouslyAverageGuy: ''Of the multiverse''. Sure, humans have their quirks like everybody else, but they still pale in comparison to the rest of the multiverse. |

| 20 | |
| 21 | Marco's parents, who allow Star to live with them. |
| 22 | ---- |
| 23 | !!Tropes applying to both |
| 24 | * AdultsAreUseless: Played with. They're generally absent from Marco's life and as such do very little to keep him safe from his and Star's dangerous adventures. They also remain ignorant of the very clear indications that Miss Heinous wants Marco dead and are mostly concerned with appeasing her when she shows up at their house so that they can prepare for dinner with their cool neighbors. However, they do take steps to help rescue Marco when they learn that he's been kidnapped in "Storm the Castle", and after learning about him starting a princess rebellion and making enemies who threaten his and Star's lives, they decide to be more actively involved. In Season 3, Angie starts to address Marco's issue with not having Star around, and shows real concern that the way Marco is conducting himself after returning from Mewni isn't healthy. |
| 25 | * AesopAmnesia: They haven't absorbed the lesson that they need to keep an eye on Marco or at least spend more time with him. |
| 26 | * AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents: Marco sometimes gets bothered by their extreme enthusiasm. |
| 27 | * {{Foil}}: To the Butterfly parents. While Star's parents are stricter and stiffer, Marco's parents are more laid back and open minded. As an added bonus, the Diazes wear warm color clothing, while the Butterflys wear cool color clothing. |
| 28 | * HappilyMarried: They are very affectionate with each other. |
| 29 | * HighSchoolSweethearts: In the "#Marco LIVE Animated Live Chat", Marco said in response to a fan. They loved each other for a long time. |
| 30 | * ItSeemedLikeAGoodIdeaAtTheTime: Allowing a foreign exchange student to live in your house when said exchange student is a teenage girl the same age as your son is probably going to have serious consequences, something that Rafael and Angie are shown to have realized in hindsight given the looks on their faces after Star makes her AnguishedDeclarationOfLove to Marco. |
| 31 | * LikeParentUnlikeChild: They are free spirits who embrace new experiences even if they are dangerous; in contrast, their son Marco is a very safe person, to the point he is almost doing it unconsciously. |
| 32 | * NiceGuy: The two are very cheerful, and welcome Star into their home with open arms. |
| 33 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Rafael and Angie in "Heinous" acted very angry and strict to Star and Marco when pinning down Miss Heinous and Gemini who they believe have done nothing wrong. Star and Marco thought they broke into their home about to torture them. They didn't have time to deal with Marco and Miss Heinous so they want him to resolve his issue with Miss Heinous. Plus, they take Miss Heinous' advice to heart to keep an assertive eye on Star's and Marco's inter-dimensional adventures despite nothing has changed after that. Rafael has took some fatherly advice to Marco in "Starcrushed", and in "Return to Mewni", part of The Battle for Mewni TV special, Angie tries to cheer up Marco after Star's sudden departure. |
| 34 | * OutOfFocus: For the first half of Season 2 and Season 3. |
| 35 | * ThePollyanna: Almost nothing gets these two down. Every new weird and dangerous thing Star introduces into their lives, they ecstatically embrace. |
| 36 | * ReplacementGoldfish: Their second child is pretty explicitly an attempt to replace Marco after the latter has moved to Mewni; they even go so far as to name the new kid Marco, Jr. |
| 37 | * SickeninglySweethearts: They are usually seen as a lovey-dovey couple. In Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension, Star says that they can be usually be found cuddling on the couch. The episodes "Diaz Family Vacation" when it was their anniversary and in "Raid the Cave", in a surprise cameo, really show how affectionate they are after years of being happily married. |
| 38 | * UnnamedParent: Only referred to as "Mom" and "Dad" by Marco and "Mr. and Mrs. Diaz" by Star. Mr. Diaz's name was revealed to be Rafael in "Storm the Castle" while Daron Nefcy [[https://twitter.com/DaronNefcy/status/647091057327370241 confirmed on Twitter]] that Mrs. Diaz's name is Angie. She was first addressed by name onscreen by Jackie in "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown". |
| 39 | * WackyParentSeriousChild: Mr. and Mrs. Diaz are free spirits compared to their insecure, safety-minded son. |
| 40 | |
| 41 | !!Tropes applying to Rafael |
| 42 | * CarpetOfVirility: Mr. Diaz has a lot of body hair, which his wife likes to play with. |
| 43 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Like his son, Mr. Diaz has matching brown hair and eyes. |
| 44 | * ExplainExplainOhCrap: Rafael doesn't exactly understand why Marco is bummed out during the party but when he goes over the scenario, he realizes what happened and recommends that Marco and Star talk this out. |
| 45 | -->'''Rafael''': What could be weird? Two teenagers sharing a home. One boy, one girl. ''[{{beat}}]'' Oh. Oh, no. |
| 46 | * HiddenDepths: |
| 47 | ** "Sleep Spells" shows that Mr. Diaz is a talented sculptor. |
| 48 | ** "Storm the Castle" reveals the Mr. Diaz has a book of medical illustrations. |
| 49 | * {{Keet}}: Like his [[GenkiGirl wife]], he's a free spirit. |
| 50 | * LatinLover: Being Mexican, Rafael is seen sometimes being romantic and falling in love with his wife, Angie. One reason why he still loves Angie is because of her beauty. Also, his chest hair really attracts her as she starts playing with it. In ''Star and Marco’s Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'', it is said that he and Angie can be usually found cuddling on the couch. Even after years of marriage, he still loves her passionately. |
| 51 | * PapaWolf: Although it wasn't fully seen, Mr. Diaz (along with [[MamaBear Mrs. Diaz]]) ''did'' put on armor and was ready to storm Ludo's castle to save Marco. This is shown in a lot more detail in "Hungry Larry", where Mr. Diaz at first appears to be terrified of Hungry Larry and struggling to comprehend what was happening but he's revealed to be in a TranquilFury that is able terrify Hungry Larry and forces him to leave in a hurry. |
| 52 | * TranquilFury: In "Hungry Larry", Mr. Diaz is able to defeat and terrify Hungry Larry when the latter had eaten his family and Hungry Larry even says that there's nothing scarier than a man who's lost everything. |
| 53 | |
| 54 | !!Tropes applying to Angie |
| 55 | * BerserkButton: She's normally easy-going, but she becomes frighteningly angry when Marco doesn't give her a real hug (this might have also had something to do with her pregnancy affecting her mood). |
| 56 | * FieryRedhead: Downplayed, as Angie is an energetic free-spirit, not HotBlooded. |
| 57 | * GenkiGirl: Like her [[{{Keet}} husband]], she's a free spirit. |
| 58 | * HistoryRepeats: She's deeply ashamed of her brief period of pretentiousness and conceit after she spent a summer in Europe during her youth and tries to warn Marco against being similarly snooty and hurting those close to him due to his recent Mewni adventures. However, at the end of ''Sophomore Slump'', she decides to let Marco return to Mewni to have his "French Summer" even if it means it might result in him having to experience some harsh and disillusioning life lessons in the process as it was for her. Which, sure enough, happens in the subsequent episode. |
| 59 | * MamaBear: Although it wasn't fully seen, Mrs. Diaz (along with [[PapaWolf Mr. Diaz]]) ''did'' put on armor and was ready to storm Ludo's castle to save Marco. |
| 60 | * SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Mrs. Diaz has reddish-brown hair and pale green eyes. |

| 72 | |
| 73 | Marco's newborn little sister. |
| 74 | ---- |
| 75 | * BadassNormal: Even though she can't cast magic like Meteora, she can still kick butt. Heck, Meteora says that she kicked ''her'' butt at one point. |
| 76 | * BigOlEyebrows: Her teenage self shows she will grow up to have thick eyebrows like her brother. |
| 77 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: She stops fighting Star and Marco and makes peace, but turns out to have been planning to use Star to get magic for herself. Ultimately Subverted, however, as she had an attack of concience and goes back on the deal she had made. |
| 78 | * EveryoneHasStandards: As much as she wants to cast magic, she draws the line when she finds out that Wyscan's belly mouth has to eat Star in order for her to gain it. |
| 79 | * FreudianExcuse: She and Meteora are very paranoid, aggressive, and manipulative, but it's to be expected for children who grew up alone in a DeathWorld like the Neverzone. |
| 80 | * HappilyAdopted: She and Meteora/Grobb were adopted by mountain women and grew up as sisters. They're very close, and their only request when leaving the Neverzone (besides a constant supply of food) is that they'll still get to grow up together. |
| 81 | * IJustWantToBeSpecial: She wants to cast magic like Meteora. |
| 82 | * MeaningfulName: "Mariposa" is Spanish for "butterfly", her parents most likely naming her after Star's family. |
| 83 | * OrphansPlotTrinket: The penguin finger puppet Marco uses to tell Mariposa a bedtime story becomes her pendant after growing up in the Neverzone. Marco recreates the story with it to prove he's really her brother. |
| 84 | * PlotRelevantAgeUp: Due to being lost in Hekapoo's dimension, she grows into a teenager. When she comes back to Earth, she turns back into a baby. |
| 85 | * SmashSisters: With Meteora/Grobb while they were in The Neverzone. |
| 86 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: She shares Marco's beauty mark and hair. Judging by her aged-up self from the Neverzone, Mariposa will grow up to look just like a female version of Marco. |
| 87 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: InUniverse. Had Mariposa been born a boy, her parents would've named her "Marco Jr". |

| 98 | ->'''Voiced by''': Creator/GreyDeLisle |
| 99 | |
| 100 | A classmate of Marco's, and the object of his affections, although he initially can't work up the nerve to tell her yet. She's often seen with a skateboard. |
| 101 | |
| 102 | She and Marco begin dating in the middle of Season 2, before breaking up early in Season 3. |
| 103 | ---- |
| 104 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: Jackie-Lynn has tan skin that is similar to Marco's. It's unknown if this is simply because she is a white person tanned from sun exposure (as would be expected from a frequent skateboarder), or if its because she is mixed race like Marco. |
| 105 | * AmbiguouslyBi: Had a great amount of ShipTease with Marco, and she values their time together, and she also mentions crushing on a guy from skate camp. But returns from studying abroad in France with another girl named Chloe whom she holds hands with, and states that she learned a lot about herself and why she and Marco weren't a good fit. |
| 106 | * AmicableExes: With Marco. They start dating in "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown", but Jackie breaks up with him because she knew he wanted to be on Mewni. When they meet up again in "Britta's Tacos", Marco is afraid that he was horrible boyfriend to her, but she reassures him that he was a "standard boyfriend" and that they just didn't work. At the end of the episode, Jackie [[ShipperOnDeck advises]] him to go after Star while Marco smiles at her and Chloe skating off together while holding hands. |
| 107 | * BrutalHonesty: In "Sleepover" after the Truth or Punishment box inflicts BodyHorror on everyone at Star's sleepover, she, along with Janna, Pony Head, and (eventually) [=StarFan13=], admit that Star's brownies were awful. She apparently learned her lesson, because in "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown", she does not hesitate at all to let Marco know that the chocolate milkshake snack he made for the two of them on their date tasted terrible. |
| 108 | * ChildhoodFriendRomance: She has known Marco since kindergarten, but she remained oblivious of his crush until he reveals it in "Sleepover". They start dating in "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown" but later break up. |
| 109 | * ChronicallyCrashedCar: Or in her case, her skateboard, which tends to keep getting broken. |
| 110 | * CrazyPrepared: She's so enthusiastic about skateboarding that she somehow kept one (plus two helmets) hidden in her dress during her first date with Marco. |
| 111 | * DrearyHalfLiddedEyes: Jackie's eyes are flatter on top, giving her a relaxed look fitting her {{mellow|Fellow}} personality. In ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'', Star describes her as looking "like she just woke up." |
| 112 | * ElementalMotifs: Jackie has several connections with water such as her sea green eyes, blue hair stripe, sea shell necklace and sea foam green dress in "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown". According to concept art, she was planned to appear in "Hungry Larry" dressed as a mermaid. When she breaks up with Marco, it's on the piers at the seaside. |
| 113 | * HeroicBSOD: In "Starcrushed" when Star confesses her love to Marco, Jackie doesn't gasp or say anything, she just looks at the situation with a shocked, distraught expression and thousand yard stare, prompting Janna to give a worried glance to check if she is alright. |
| 114 | * HiddenDepths: |
| 115 | ** According to "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown", she's apparently a bit of a history geek, though Marco moves on to his next scripted question before she can elaborate more on it. |
| 116 | ** In "Starcrushed", her interactions with her new boyfriend Marco are noticeably goofier than her usual relaxed demeanor, showing a silly side that she previously kept more to herself. |
| 117 | * ImpossibleHourglassFigure: Her legs are not the only noticeably curvy part of her body. |
| 118 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: She wasn't aware of Star's crush on Marco while she was dating him and didn't realise how it was affecting her. |
| 119 | * IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: She gently breaks up with Marco when she realizes that he can't readjust to Earth and she doesn't want him to stay on Earth for her sake. |
| 120 | * JustTheWayYouAre: In "Naysaya", she agrees to go to the movies with Marco despite him having just spent hours telling her all of his most pathetic, vulnerable insecurities. In "Bon Bon the Birthday Clown", she recounts this and Marco's many other embarrassing moments when she's explaining that she admires how much he [[TheDeterminator manages to keep going on]] despite them. |
| 121 | * LoveEpiphany: As depicted in ''[[AllThereInTheManual Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension]]'', the moment when Jackie realized that she reciprocates Marco's crush on her was during Star's interview with her about it. |
| 122 | * LoveRevelationEpiphany: After Marco is forced to admit his crush on her in "Sleepover", Jackie admits she doesn't know how she feels about her previous crush anymore. In "Naysaya", she invites him to go see a movie with her, and the episode "Bon Bon The Birthday Clown" has Jackie asking him out on a date. |
| 123 | * MellowFellow: "Easygoing" seems to be her default mood. In ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'', Star calls her "surprisingly alert for someone who looks like she just woke up." |
| 124 | * NiceGirl: Jackie is likable, easy-going, patient and understanding. When Marco accidentally breaks her skateboard in "Cheer Up, Star", she is clearly upset, but awkwardly rides away on the front half of the board after telling Marco it's okay rather than get angry. She takes the whole "Naysaya" incident very well, fetching paper towels for Marco after he asks for them in the most awkward way, and listens to a ''long'' list of embarrassing confessions without judgement. Even her breakup speech to him in "Sophomore Slump" is surprisingly calm. |
| 125 | * NonStandardCharacterDesign: Her eyes are drawn differently to everyone else's and have more definition in the irises, and her body and legs are curvier compared to most human (looking) characters, who are drawn with straighter shapes. |
| 126 | * NoodleIncident: In "Just Friends", while returning the baby ducklings to their mother in the creek, Star and Jackie both mention and bond over having lived in that same creek at some point. While Star's story is a ContinuityNod to when she went on the lam as a fugitive in "Star vs. Echo Creek", the details of Jackie's story and why she was living in the creek are not explained. |
| 127 | * ObliviousToLove: She didn't know about Marco's obvious crush on her until he confesses it in "Sleepover". ''[[AllthereInTheManual Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension]]'' has her suggest in an interview with Star that she was always aware of it on some level, but didn't really know for certain until "Sleepover". |
| 128 | * PutOnABus: In Season 3 once she breaks up with Marco and is left behind when he goes to Mewni, not appearing until a bit in season 4. |
| 129 | * RelationshipUpgrade: In "Bon Bon The Birthday Clown", she asks Marco out on a date, where they end up kissing. |
| 130 | * RomanticFalseLead: She was Marco's target of affections throughout Seasons 1 and 2, with both getting together at the end of the latter while Star grew increasingly jealous. They break up shortly after the start of Season 3. |
| 131 | * SatelliteLoveInterest: In Season 1, Jackie doesn't have much of a role besides being the girl Marco's crushing on. This is even lampshaded by Marco in the episode "Sleepover", when he admits he never truly to got know Jackie beyond the image of her he built up, but he would like to try. Jackie is given more fleshed-out characterization from that point forward. |
| 132 | * SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: |
| 133 | ** She developed a crush on some dude at skate camp because he was a NiceGuy. |
| 134 | ** She proceeded to show interest in Marco for the same reason, as the above mentioned crush -- Marco's an honest NiceGuy who always tries his hardest. |
| 135 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: |
| 136 | ** In "Freeze Day", a glimpse of Marco's childhood shows a gold star chart with Jackie's name spelled as "Jakie", though this could simply be attributed to a toddler's misspelling. |
| 137 | ** A more complicated example would be the placement of the hyphen in her full name. In "Naysaya", Marco mentions that he filled a notebook with his first name and her last name because he couldn't decide between "Marco Diaz Lynn-Thomas" or "Marco Lynn-Thomas Diaz", implying that her last name is "Lynn-Thomas". However, the ''[[AllThereInTheScript Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension]]'' book gives her full name as "Jackie-Lynn Thomas" and calls her "Jackie-Lynn" a few times, implying that this is her first name. Considering that it's never mentioned ''when'' Marco filled that notebook, and the fact that even up to the present day he assumed that her drawing of a green watermelon was of the moon, it could be possible that her full name is properly spelled "Jackie-Lynn Thomas" and Marco simply didn't know at the time that the Lynn was not part of her last name. |
| 138 | * SymbolMotifClothing: She always wears a seashell necklace and has shown multiple times to have connotations with water, such as her dress in "Bon Bon The Birthday Clown" looking like the ocean (according to Star), and in "Hungry Larry" Jackie was originally planned to make an appearance in the episode dressed as a mermaid. On a minor note, her green eyes and blue hair stripe might also be a connection to water. |
| 139 | * TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Is a skate boarder but also enjoys romantic movies, and wears a sparkly dress with a flower in her hair for the school dance, which is later shown to have her usual sneakers, knee socks, and jean shorts underneath when she ties the bottom up to skateboard. She also wears a more casual dress for her date with Marco in "Sophomore Slump". |
| 140 | * TrouserSpace: She inexplicably managed to have a skateboard and two helmets hidden under her dress during her date with Marco. And when invited to join Star and Marco at a Love Sentence concert, she somehow has ''three'' skateboards hidden... somewhere. Plus an extra helmet for Marco (presumably only refraining from pulling a third helmet out because Star magic-ed up one for herself). |
| 141 | * TwoFirstNames: Her last name Thomas is also a male given name. |
| 142 | * WhatBeautifulEyes: Her eyes are drawn with more detail than most characters', and in ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'', Star says she has the second most beautiful eyes in Echo Creek Academy (first most beautiful being Oskar's). |
| 143 | * YouthfulFreckles: Jackie has freckles under her eyes. |

| 151 | |
| 152 | Two of Marco's friends. Alfonzo is a skinny kid with glasses and an accent, while Ferguson is a heavyset boy with red hair. |
| 153 | ---- |
| 154 | * AllThereInTheScript: ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'' reveals their last names and Dolittle and O'durguson, respectively. |
| 155 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: Alfonzo's name, dark skin, and accent imply that he may be Hispanic. |
| 156 | * CasanovaWannabe: Ferguson thinks he's a ladies man, but he's not. |
| 157 | * ADayInTheLimelight: Issue 4 of the comics gives them one, with them following Star and Marco on an adventure again and getting a fairly prominent role. It also explains what they've been up to since Star stopped taking them on adventures with her and Marco (Fooling around with her stuff while she and Marco are out and walking the Laser Puppies.) |
| 158 | * DemotedToExtra: They only appear as background characters in the second season. Janna more or less takes over their role as the additional human that tags along on Star and Marco's adventures. This flat-out becomes the subject of a joke in "Collateral Damage" where Star calls on them in a crowd, saying that she hasn't talked to them all year but they're still always in the background doing their thing. We then only see their waving arms sticking out of the crowd. This was mostly due to Daron Nefcy wanting to use them as little as possible admitting that she didn't like them and that the only reason why they were added in the first place was due to [[ExecutiveMeddling the insistence from Disney]] to give Marco male friends. They were said to have bigger parts in Season 3, but this ultimately amounted to them appearing only once in "Sophomore Slump" with their appearance essentially serving as their proper sendoff. Still, it was more attention than what they'd received in the season prior. |
| 159 | * FatAndSkinny: Alfonzo's the skinny to Ferguson's fat. |
| 160 | * InterspeciesRomance: In "Pixtopia", Ferguson fell for (and almost married) the Pixie Empress. Later Alfonzo marries her instead. |
| 161 | * TheLoad: The two are thoroughly useless. Star stopped taking them on adventures due to this. |
| 162 | * NonActionGuy: They are both utterly useless in fights. |
| 163 | * OnlyFriend: In "School Spirit", Marco [[AngerBornOfWorry angrily]] tells Ferguson that his TooDumbToLive behavior is why he only has two friends. With the ''Deep Trouble'' comics showing that Star has [[WeUsedToBeFriends stopped considering them friends]] by some point prior to Season 2. |
| 164 | * SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Ferguson. |
| 165 | * {{Oireland}}: Ferguson might be from there, as he has red hair, green eyes, freckles and a last name that starts with "O'". |
| 166 | * ThoseTwoGuys: Commonly seen together. |
| 167 | * ThrowTheDogABone: In "Britta's Tacos" we see that they made a new group of friends after Marco left, and now their nerdiness is considered cool. |
| 168 | * WeUsedToBeFriends: The ''Deep Trouble'' comics show that a falling out with Star was the in-universe reason for them being DemotedToExtra in Season 2 -- Star stopped taking them with her and Marco on adventures because of their immature behavior. She gets even more reason to distance herself from them when she finds out that they've been breaking into her room and screwing around with her stuff, and she speaks of them rather disdainfully even before learning about that. Star's offhand line about how Marco would still be hanging out with them [[ItMakesSenseInContext if she were never born]] implies that Marco spends much less time with them. He doesn't look too happy to see that they've been breaking into his house to raid Star's room either. Finally [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] when the episode "Sophomore Slump" reveals that Marco is still friends with them and hangs around them. Though they did get annoyed at Marco when he keeps talking about Mewni, they accept Marco's apology for his behavior and they present him with their lucky dice as he leaves for Mewni. |

| 180 | Margaret Skullnick is Star and Marco's cantankerous homeroom/math teacher. Star accidentally turns her into a troll in the third episode of the first season. |
| 181 | ---- |
| 182 | * AllAmazonsWantHercules: She was very interested in Ludo's muscular minotaur henchman, although he ended up dumping her. She's also delighted to discover that trolls (who would now find her most attractive) are invariably super strong. |
| 183 | * BadassTeacher: Posses the physical powers of a troll, and works as Star and Marco's teacher and she easily takes on a yarn monster that's considered the most dangerous monster in the universe. |
| 184 | * CursedWithAwesome: At first she is devastated about being turned into a monster but after learning that trolls live on average 400 years (meaning she technically turned back into a ''teenager'') and are hundreds of times stronger than a human, she changes her mind. |
| 185 | * DeadpanSnarker: Especially in "School Spirit", when Star asks her what is her favorite weapon, she replied with complete disinterest, "battle axe". |
| 186 | * ForcedTransformation: Accidentally transformed into a troll by Star. Star can't figure out how to reverse it.[[spoiler: Word of God is that she turned back when magic was ended in ''Cleaved''.]] |
| 187 | * GeniusBruiser: Shown to be one in "Interdimensional Field Trip"; she uses both her new trollish strength and her school-teacher wits to defeat a fearsome monster. |
| 188 | * IAmWho: A slight version of this, as she never knew how [[CursedWithAwesome great trolls are]] until she entered a museum of them in "Interdimensional Field Trip". |
| 189 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She acts as jerky teacher to her students, even taking her anger out on them by giving a quiz just because the monster she liked apparently broke up with her. Despite this and being grumpy, strict, and disapproving of fun, she does care for her students and doesn't hesitate to rescue them from the Yarn Monster in "Interdimensional Field Trip". |
| 190 | * NoNameGiven: Only referred to as "Miss Skullnick" until "Girls' Day Out", where she reveals her first name as Margaret. |
| 191 | * SadistTeacher: Mostly due to grumpiness from not being able to get a date. However, in Season 2, she became more of a well-meaning SternTeacher after she TookALevelInKindness. |
| 192 | * SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids: She has a very cynical and pessimistic outlook on life, and seems to think it's her job to prepare her students for a dull and disappointing future. |
| 193 | * StoutStrength: As a troll. Turns out beneath that layer of flab is some ''serious'' muscle. |
| 194 | * TookALevelInBadass: After getting in touch with her new troll heritage in "Interdimensional Field Trip", she helps save the class from a string monster. |
| 195 | * TookALevelInKindness: In season two, even though she still retains some of her grumpiness, she is shown to be way more eager to teach her students and more supportive of them (like in "Mathmagic", where she honestly congratulates Star for trying to solve a math problem). This is a big improvement compared to her early appearances in season 1, where she was portrayed as a miserable woman who clearly hated her job and couldn't care less about her students. |
| 196 | * YoungerThanTheyLook: As a human Ms. Skullnick looked her age, and still looks that age as a troll. However ''as'' a troll she's now much longer lived, so biologically she's moved from being middle-aged back to being a teenager [[spoiler:until it was confirmed by WordOfGod that she was back to a middle aged human after the events of "Cleaved"]]. |

| 216 | |
| 217 | She is a "mean girl" cheerleader who attends Echo Creek Academy. |
| 218 | ---- |
| 219 | * AlphaBitch: She's the obligatory mean teenage cheerleader that opposes our quirky teenage heroine. |
| 220 | * AsianAirhead: She has the mannerisms and speech patterns of a stereotypical ValleyGirl, and her surname suggests that she's of Asian descent. In fact, she's Chinese, but her voice actor is Japanese. |
| 221 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Disappeared from the series altogether after "Starcrushed", only to have one more minor cameo in the finale, a little more then two years after the former episode aired. |
| 222 | * DemotedToExtra: She only makes three appearances in the second season; all are brief, and only one is a speaking part. She'd completely disappear from the show altogether afterwards before returning for another minor cameo in the series finale. |
| 223 | * DirtyCoward: Selfishly moved to save her own ass going so far as to push her own cheerleading team out of her way ([[KickTheDog using a wheelchair user cheering mate no less!]]) when the Star-customized battlefield erupted into chaos. |
| 224 | * EatenAlive: In "School Spirit," one of Star's traps is a dragon that eats her while she is being a DirtyCoward. |
| 225 | * GreenEyedMonster: In "Brittney's Party", she is very resentful of how her guests love the improvements Star makes to her party. Her guests tell her they loved her party, but it didn't make her happy. |
| 226 | * HateSink: Clearly she isn't the most beloved character of the series, but isn't actively antagonistic toward Star (preferring to spend as little time with her as possible) enough to qualify as a proper villain, landing her in this trope instead. |
| 227 | * HairFlip: When she whips her hair, it's her way of metaphorically dropping the mic after she insults someone. |
| 228 | * HiddenDepths: At the end of "Mr. Candle Cares", she is seen with the titular counselor, apparently discussing whether her life has already peaked. In "Collateral Damage", the distress these thoughts cause her seem to have caused her to start overeating, as she is noticeably pudgier and seen eating ''something'' clearly unhealthy. |
| 229 | * HollywoodToneDeaf: Nobody likes her singing. |
| 230 | * HypocriticalHumor: By insulting Star that while it's okay to be stupid in her homeworld of Mewni, she kinda lampshades her own lack of tact when she showed off her killer winning plan for the game against the Warriors team (trying to [[DistractedByTheSexy distract the visiting team by shaking the cheer squad's booties at them]]). Only highlighted more so by the fact she let an injured teammate who can't even shake her booty onto the field. |
| 231 | * ItsAllAboutMe: Needless to say Ms. Wong didn't take it very well when Star contradicted her plan to win the upcoming game against the warriors. |
| 232 | * {{Jerkass}}: While she surprisingly has avoided initiating any conflict so far, she compensates with a rude and hostile attitude toward everyone she interacts with. |
| 233 | * JerkassHasAPoint: To be fair, some of her complaints about Star are somewhat justified. In "School Spirit" Star bursts in and behaves randomly in her training session and in "Brittney's Party" Star and Marco are uninvited guests that takes over her party and then endangers everyone with their monster enemies. [[ItsAllAboutMe Though nobody but her was enjoying the party until they arrived]], and Star [[LiteralMinded misunderstood her]] thinking she ''was'' invited. |
| 234 | * KickTheDog: Takes advantage of Sabrina ''and'' her injury in order to save her own life. Again played with when she hair whips a laser puppy. |
| 235 | -->'''Star''': ''Not cool.'' |
| 236 | * PetTheDog: Lets Sabrina join the cheering squad in the game despite her injury. |
| 237 | * PopularIsDumb: The best this dumbbell diva can come up with for a big game win against a rival school team is distraction via mass produced rump shakeage produced by herself and her cheering squad. It doesn't work. |
| 238 | * PutOnABus: After "Starcrushed", only to appear one more time for a brief cameo in the series finale. |
| 239 | * RichBitch: She's head cheerleader because her father made a "sizable" contribution to the school. |
| 240 | %%* ShipTease: [[OppositesAttract With Justin]] in "Collateral Damage". |
| 241 | * SitcomArchNemesis: One-sided on her side to Star. |

Treats those around her whom she deems beneath her notice with spite and disdain due to her upbringing, be they equally popular or just regular folks? [[RuleOfThree Do you really need to ask]]? |
| 243 | * UngratefulBitch: Star makes her party a success, but she doesn't care, she's just upset that she got upstaged. |
| 244 | * UnknownRival: Hates Star for being as popular as her, if not more so. Star is completely oblivious to this. |

| 272 | ->'''Voiced by''': Creator/JonHeder |
| 273 | |
| 274 | A musician who goes to Echo Creek Academy. Star had a crush on him. |
| 275 | ---- |
| 276 | * AbortedArc: In "Starcushed", Star and he seem to part on amicable terms with him asking if they could hang out next summer which Star agrees to. Come next appearance, he mention he vaguely remembers the promise... and promptly shrugs it off. [[SarcasmMode Shocker.]] |
| 277 | * AccidentalMisnaming: Oskar repeatedly refers to Marco as "Mango" when talking to Star in "Starcrushed". |
| 278 | * AmbiguouslyBrown: Like Jackie and Janna, Oscar has a skin color similar to Marco's. |
| 279 | * AmbiguouslyHuman: Since he has fangs for some reason, it's unknown if he's really human or a monster (likely a vampire). Considering Mina found her way to Earth during her exile, it's not out of the realm of possibility for the latter [[note]]Considering he mentions a mother in "Mewberty", one could theorize they're from Mewni and his family immigrated to Earth to get away from all the conflict with the Mewmans[[/note]]. However the show never dwells on it, far as it's known, it's just part of his quirks. |
| 280 | * BrokenPedestal: With her crush goggles for Oskar now gone in "Starcrushed" (and likely due to the character development she's gone through in season three and four causing her to mature), Star has started to realize he's an idiot. |
| 281 | * BurgerFool: In Season 4, his last appearances on the show has him working at a fast food restaurant. Since he never bothered to finish high school, it's not surprising that's the only place he can work to support himself. |
| 282 | * CharacterBlog: He has a [[https://twitter.com/oskarkhestra Twitter]], the username of which was revealed in ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension''. |
| 283 | * CompanionCube: He's almost never seen without his keytar and his car. |
| 284 | * CuteLittleFangs: Two of them. Since he's (presumably) human, [[RiddleForTheAges it's unknown why he has them]]. |
| 285 | * TheDitz: Oskar isn't really the brightest guy around, from being oblivious to hazards to being rather poor at remembering names. Even Star realizes now what an idiot he is. |
| 286 | * DreadfulMusician: His keytar playing is abominable. Star loves it, though. Downplayed in "Mewberty", his keytar playing has improved, (By which we mean he doesn't [[SuckinessIsPainful cause people to writhe around in agony]] but his singing and lyrics could still use some work. |
| 287 | * DrivesLikeCrazy: In "Star On Wheels", much to Marco's terror when he gives him a lift, Oskar drives extremely fast and barely pays attention to the road. |
| 288 | * EarlyBirdCameo: He is briefly seen amongst a crowd of students in "Match Maker". |
| 289 | * HiddenDepths: The song he writes in "Mewberty" indicates some obvious mother issues. One of the lines includes "I don't like your boyfriend, mom." |
| 290 | * ImportantHaircut: Oskar's new hairstyle in "Starcrushed" makes him look much less cool. |
| 291 | * NervesOfSteel: He barely reacts to the Mewberty-powered Star pulling him and his car up into the sky. Even when he crashes back down to Earth, he shows no signs of trauma, giving Marco a nonchalant "S'up?" In "Blood Moon Ball", his only reaction to Tom arriving at school is to tell him he's parked in a handicapped space. |
| 292 | * NoodleIncident: Principal Skeeves says he has "a record". |
| 293 | * OddFriendship: He gets along quite well with Glossaryck during "Star On Wheels", with the two of them goofing off and making music while Marco's trying to get them to focus on rescuing Star. |
| 294 | * OutOfFocus: After "Girls' Day Out", he suffered a long absence from the series. This is somewhat explained in "Starcrushed", where he mentions dropping out of school to pursue his musical interests. |
| 295 | * ParentWithNewParamour: He apparently takes issue with his mother's boyfriend, according to one of his song lyrics. |
| 296 | * SatelliteLoveInterest: His only role in the show is someone Star's crushing on. The most we see of him is sitting on his car playing his keytar badly. He manages to have some decent interaction with Star in "Starcrushed", but not much is added to his character. |
| 297 | * TheSlacker: Near all his early appearances are just him hanging around his car and playing on his keytar. He has aspirations of being a musician and he gets better with his playing as seen in "Starcushed". But doesn't seem to bother putting in any more effort than really needed and his lackadaisical attitude eventually tip off Star that he's all looks and no brains. The fact that he drops out of high school and works at a fast food joint later in the show implies that, unless he realizes he truly needs an education, he isn't going to get far in life. |
| 298 | * SuckinessIsPainful: In his first appearance, his music causes people to writhe on the ground in pain, except Star. |
| 299 | * TakeThat: A girl, Star, falling for a mysterious guy with fangs. Yeah it's obvious there's some ''[[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Twilight]]'' riffing here. Considering Star's attitude to him in the fourth season, it's highly likely it was intentional. |
| 300 | * UnrequitedLoveSwitcheroo: When her crush on Oskar faded, Star isn't very thrilled with seeing Oskar during the events of "Starcrushed". Meanwhile, when Star held his fist, Oskar was clearly flustered, and he later expresses a desire to hang out with her in the same capacity that Marco usually does. |
| 301 | * WhatBeautifulEyes: Whenever Oskar's eyes are shown, they have eyelashes and lots of highlights in what is most likely a {{parod|iedTrope}}y of this trope. "Star on Wheels" confirms that this isn't a CrushFilter on Star's part; his eyes really do look like that all the time, and they are huge. |

| 311 | * AmbiguouslyBi: She pretty clearly has feelings for Star, but in the second live chat, she mentions that her favorite version of the alternate universe versions of Star in "Mathmagic" is the ''[[Rule63 male]]'' one. The "[=FanCo13=] LIVE" chat held after "Starcrushed" aired also had her calling Marco very handsome in his prince costume from "Face the Music". |
| 312 | * AudienceSurrogate: Where to begin? She is called ''[=StarFan13=]'' for a reason. Star's such a likeable character to have that many zealous fans in the audience. She's a hardcore Starco shipper, which is very much a majority of the fandom. If there's anyone who best personifies the audience, it's her. |
| 313 | * ClingyJealousGirl: In the second [=StarFan13=] [=LiveChat=], she briefly pulls out some paper cutouts of Star and Marco to play out Star saying, "Marco, you're lame and [=StarFan13=] is really my best friend," showing hints of jealousy toward Marco. |

| 317 | * FanGirl: Of Star Butterfly. |
| 318 | * HypocriticalHumor: According to her live streams, she's read all of Star's secret journal, but she won't reveal anything from it because ''that'' would be an invasion of privacy. |

| 321 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Even in an episode where she isn't just a gag, she is only referred to as [=StarFan13=]. And [[AllThereInTheManual ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'']] shows her name in the the Echo Creek Academy yearbook as [=Starfan13=], possibly implying that she's legally changed her name. |
| 322 | -->"I don't have a real name. I gave that up long ago." |
| 323 | ** In the first live stream chat, she even claims that she's never had any other name. |
| 324 | * ShipperOnDeck: In "Starcrushed", she smiles excitedly when Star admits to having had a crush on Marco, and is disappointed when Star claims that she doesn't anymore. And then when Star confesses her love to Marco, Starfan faints. In the joint Marco and [=StarFan13=] live chat after the episode aired, she admits to being a Starco shipper and says she's written Starco fan fiction. |
| 325 | * ShipTease: |
| 326 | ** Her StalkerWithACrush behavior toward Star is never shown to be unwelcome, and the StalkerShrine dedicated to Star that she keeps in her locker apparently has a reciprocal counterpart dedicated to [=StarFan13=] in Star's own locker. |
| 327 | ** The live stream chat after "Starcrushed" aired that was hosted by Marco and [=StarFan13=] simultaneously was named "[=FanCo13=] LIVE" (in much the same style as "[[PortmanteauCoupleName Starco]]" is named), and in it, she tells Marco that she thought he looked very handsome in the prince outfit he wore in "Face the Music". [[invoked]] |
| 328 | * SpellMyNameWithAnS: A minor detail compared to the confusion about the hyphen in Jackie's name, but various bits of official material like the live chats give her name as [=StarFan13=], while her name in the Echo Creek Academy yearbook is spelled [=Starfan13=], without capitalizing the "f" in fan. It's possible that one of them is her legal name used in the yearbook while the other is the Internet username she goes by. |
| 329 | * StalkerWithACrush: On Star. |
| 330 | * StalkerShrine: Her first appearance has her showing Star the StalkerShrine she has in her locker dedicated to pictures of Star. Bizarrely enough, Star's locker is similarly plastered with pictures of [=StarFan13=] herself. |

| 353 | A foreign exchange student from Scandinavia who lived with the Diaz's before Star came to Earth, and comes for a visit in "The Other Exchange Student". His monopoly on the Diaz's affections drives Star to extreme jealousy. |
| 354 | |
| 355 | His real name is Charlie Booth, and he actually hails from the drab town of Bakersfieldville. His dream in life is to become a chef so he can bring some flavor and color to his hometown, and he travels the country posing as foreign exchange students to various families so he can try his recipes on them. |
| 356 | ---- |
| 357 | * TheCameo: He briefly appears (in his "Francois" guise) in "Freeze Day" and again to attend the baby shower in "Marco Jr". |
| 358 | * {{Fauxreigner}}: Turns out to be from a boring town close by and pretends to be a foreign exchange student to practice his chef skills. He even does the same schtik to another family, this time as French. |
| 359 | * ForeignExchangeStudent: From Scandinavia. Or so he would have the Diaz's believe. He is in actuality a full blooded American who poses as various nationalities to [[ItMakesSenseInContext trick families into taking him in so he can hone his skills as a chef]] by practicing various regional (for whatever nationality he's posing as) dishes on them. |
| 360 | * ImAHumanitarian: What Star believes him to be given his insistence on feeding the Diazes his meatballs. Turns out to be unfounded, since he is really a traveling cooking student and is trying his recipes on the Diazes. [[DoubleSubverted Although he never explained measuring the Diazes while they slept]]. |
| 361 | * InUniverseFactoidFailure: Used to foreshadow that he's a {{Fauxreigner}} as he thinks Scandinavia has penguins (that apparently everyone has one) and polar bears. And that's on top of thinking Scandinavia is a single country and not just a region consisting of several countries. Also thinks that lederhosen and dirndls are Scandinavian, as seen when he gives Marco a Nintendo game called "Lederhosen Tycoon". Also gives the Diazes wooden shoes/clogs. In fact, Scandinavians have puffins, lederhosen is German and clogs are Dutch. |
| 362 | * NorseByNorsewest: Claims (As Gustav) to not just come from "The country of Scandanavia" (Which is not so much a single country but a region encompassing several nations), but a particularly stereotypical version (mainly Sweden), no less. |
| 363 | * {{Omniglot}}: Has a working knowledge of at least two foreign (to America) languages, and possibly more if he has other nationalities that he passes for. |
| 364 | * RememberTheNewGuy: Not just for himself, since he isn't alluded to at all before his premiere episode, but also for a whole host of foreign exchange students that the Diazes have taken in, as evidenced by a wall covered in their photos. |
| 365 | * SlasherSmile: While he doesn't turn out to be a cannibal, he still makes [[https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/star-and-the-forces-of-evil/images/4/49/S1E6_Gustav_force-feeds_cake_to_Mrs._Diaz.png/revision/latest?cb=20150302202315 this rather psychotic face]].

| 385 | * EpicBattleBoredom: In "All Belts are Off" Jeremy made a big egotistical intro then quickly and arrogantly defeated a yellow belted opponent. This actually bored the Grandmaster and it had put him to sleep. When the Grandmaster woke up, he assumed that the event was over and quickly left despite Jeremy trying to tell him that he wasn't finished and that he had just started. |
| 386 | * HateSink: He introduced himself in "All Belts are Off" in the most egotistical and self-centered way possible such as involving singers, demanding his photo to be taken and expecting the audience to applaud him. Due to this, the audience quickly hated him and left the dojo as soon as the Grandmaster left. Sensei goes so far as to call him a "toilet" behind his back. |
| 387 | * {{Jerkass}}: So much that there isn't a single PetTheDog moment for him in any episode he appears in. |
| 388 | * KickTheDog: The worst thing he's ever done is pull a sick, demented prank on a disabled passer-by involving a glued $100 bill with rainbow-colored ''turd'' on it, causing the poor guy to struggle, and lose his glasses in the turds. And it was that guy's ''birthday''. |

| 390 | * PickOnSomeoneYourOwnSize: Inverted. He goes out of his way to mock and annoy Marco, despite their differences in age, and relishes the opportunity to beat him up in their karate match. |
| 391 | * PyrrhicVictory: Jeremy may have been selected to represent the Dojo, but he ends up ashamed when his mediocre display bores the Grandmaster to sleep and they only barely get his approval for certification. Plus, the entire audience sees firsthand what a conceited brat he is and he gets abandoned by everyone but his butler once the karate demonstration is over. |
| 392 | * PutOnABus: Never appeared on the show again after "All Belts Are Off". |
| 393 | * ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: His karate rank is only due to his parents buying the belts for him. His parents are also the main source of income for the dojo, which is why Jeremy was chosen to represent the Dojo despite Sensei knowing that Jeremy is terrible at karate. |
| 394 | * SitcomArchNemesis: He is this to Marco, just as Brittney Wong is to Star. |
| 395 | * SpearCounterpart: Jeremy is practically a younger male version of what Brittany Wong is to Star -- a talentless, spoiled, rich brat whom nobody likes and whom hates their much nicer classmate who happens to be a hero (Star for Brittany, Marco for Jeremy). However, Jeremy doesn't just flaunt his status and judge others based on what HE thinks of them--he actually goes the extra mile and pulls sick, demented pranks on others and is a dirty cheater, all of which make Brittney look like a nice girl. |
| 396 | * SpoiledBrat: His parents buy him anything he wants. |

| 400 | !!Sensei Brantley |
| 401 | [[quoteright:251:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sensei.PNG]] |
| 402 | ->'''Voiced by''': Nick Swardson (seasons 1-2), Dominic Catrambone (seasons 3-4) |
| 403 | |
| 404 | Marco and Jeremy's karate instructor who runs a dojo out of a local Echo Creek mini-mall. His chiseled physique and spry athleticism belie a monumental amount of immaturity. |
| 405 | ---- |
| 406 | * AllThereInTheManual: ''Star and Marco's Guide to Mastering Every Dimension'' reveals his name as Brantley. |
| 407 | * AlmightyJanitor: He's only, just recently, actually ascended to red belt (which is, essentially, still just the martial arts equivalent to grade school). That said, he's good enough to blow enough wind to put a fire out with a palm strike. |
| 408 | * AscendedExtra: He becomes a recurring character in Season 2, and basically seems to be Marco's best friend after Star. |
| 409 | * BigOlEyebrows: He has thick eyebrows. |
| 410 | * BurgerFool: In season 4, it turns out he'd been working at Britta's Taco for the last half year. If this was to supplement his income running the dojo or replace it after it closed down is unknown. |
| 411 | * CharlesAtlasSuperpower: In "Trickstar", he's able to put out a huge fire with the wind generated from a palm strike. |
| 412 | * CurtainsMatchTheWindows: He has brown hair and eyes. |
| 413 | * EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Nobody refers to him by name, only by his position. |
| 414 | * FakeUltimateHero: Before Season 2, he was actually a green belt in karate just like Marco because he never actually finished the training course and his mini-mall dojo only becomes legitimately certified several episodes later. |
| 415 | * IncompletelyTrained: The Sensei never finished his training and never made it past a green belt. Only later on does he advance to a red belt and become certified much later. |
| 416 | * IntergenerationalFriendship: Sensei Brantley becomes friends with his karate student, Marco. In fact, it seems that, after Star, Sensei is Marco's best friend. |
| 417 | * ManChild: He's a man in his late 30s who learns much of his wisdom from in-universe cartoons. |
| 418 | * MommasBoy: He lives in his mother's house. |
| 419 | * MoneyDearBoy: InUniverse. He lets Jeremy get away with much of his terrible behavior because his parents keep his dojo funded. However, the Birnbaums are too witless to exert any real power over the establishment and once Marco learns about the scam, he more-or-less approves of Sensei filching them for all they're worth. |
| 420 | * PoorCommunicationKills: He learned from children's shows that "doing hurtful things to each other without explaining why, because they know their friends will understand," is something friends do. This is why he wasn't upfront and honest with Marco about why Jeremy got chosen over him. |

| 424 | !!Bon Bon the Birthday Clown |
| 425 | [[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bon_bon_profile.png]] |
| 426 | ->'''Voiced by''': Creator/TomKenny |
| 427 | |
| 428 | A beloved clown that used to live in Echo Creek until he died a hundred years or so before the events of the show. His signature trick were candles that lit themselves again every time you put them out, and supposedly like them, he will "come back" on the hundredth anniversary of his death. |
| 429 | ---- |
| 430 | * BackFromTheDead: He promised to come back on the 100th anniversary of the day he died. Star and Janna planned on holding a dead clown séance to greet his ghost. |
| 431 | * BackForTheDead: In-Universe, he gets sucked into a vortex that Star used against Ludo shortly after his ghost returns. |
| 432 | * FatalMethodActing: He initially died after his trick candles for the mayor's birthday party [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath exploded in his face]]. [[invoked]] |
| 433 | * NonIronicClown: He genuinely enjoyed entertaining people with party tricks. Even when he briefly came back as a ghost, he hadn't lost his fun-loving nature. |
| 434 | * RedHerring: His name is the title of the season two mid-season finale. The episode actually focuses on Marco's date with Jackie and Star's jealousy over it, and the villain instead turns out to be Ludo. He actually ''does'' show up towards the end, as a ghost… Only to be sucked into a black hole without contributing anything to the story. |
| 435 | * WeHardlyKnewYe: Falls victim to this. ''Twice''. In the episode intro, he dies in a tragic accident involving trick candles, not two minutes in, but he promises on his death bed that he will be back eventually. And he does come back! Only to get caught in the crossfire of Star's and Ludo's fight, where he's sucked into a black hole. |
