11	[[quoteright:223:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/adam_full.png]]
12
13	-> '''Voiced by''': Adrian Petriw
14	A boy who ends up as the de-facto leader of the team. He is level headed, but also head strong.
15
16	He has super strength.
17	----
18	* BenchedHero: Late in season one, he ends up with bad hypothermia due to Reeve knocking him out in the Ice area. He spends the remainder of episode 8 and a good chunk of episode 9 unconscious, while Mira and Kai try to find a way to nurse him back to health.
19	* CassandraTruth: Becomes this when he sees Dave glitch out.
20	* IncompatibleOrientation: Adam and Mira. When Mira kisses Adam in season 1 he tells her he's not interested in her that way, and in season 2 it's shown that Adam has a rainbow pride flag on the wall of his bedroom and later admits he's gay. Thankfully he doesn't hold the kiss against Mira (as she knows his orientation in the real world and felt awful about it) and even jokes about how he's not surprised she would fall for him regardless.
21	* JerkassBall: He's a lot quicker to anger and snap after finding out Mira left him and Kai behind in "Hollow Games". He calms down a bit after they're reunited, but he remains noticeably on edge for the remainder of the season.
22	* TheLeader: He automatically assumes this position in the group. When they get their memories back, Mira calls out that he often behaves like this.
23	* MusclesAreMeaningless: His strength is well in excess of what his muscles should provide. Then again, he ''is'' in a video game...
24	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: At the end of episode 3 he accidentally kicks off a part of the spaceship, causing it to malfunction and crash into the sea. If it weren't for Miras' underwater breathing ability, he'd have caused her death, which Kai and Adam think really happened before she shows up again.
25	* LeParkour: His athletic superpowers include a capacity of jumping and moving in a way that is reminiscent of this.
26	* QueerEstablishingMoment: Adam's orientation is hinted at in Season 1, after he & Mira kiss, where he tells her he's not interested in her that way. It's then hinted at again in the first episode of Season 2 with a rainbow pride flag in his bedroom, and then in the next episode Adam flat out states to Kai that he's gay.
27	* ShipTease: With Mira. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] when she actually kisses him and he reacts by awkwardly stating he has no interest in her, which becomes more understandable when he comes out as gay in "Hollow Games".
28	* StraightGay: He reveals he's gay in the second season, though, having their memories back, Kai is the only one who doesn't know, even though Adam seems to be pretty open about, having a pride flag in his room. This was actually lampshaded in season one, when Mira and he kissed, through his reaction to it.
29	* SuperStrength: He's able to punch through a solid ''boulder'' without breaking a sweat.

33	!!Mira
34	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mainteam2.PNG]]
35
36	-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/AshleighBall
37	An intelligent girl with a knack for solving puzzles and being able to understand animals.
38	----
39	* AllLovingHero: She frequently tries to find peaceful solutions to problems rather than fight her way out.
40	* TheAntiNihilist: After Mira discovers that [[spoiler:she and the others are digital clones in Season 2, she points out that they still have feelings and emotions even if they aren’t “real”.]]
41	* ChildhoodFriends: With both Adam and Skeet, though it seems Adam knew nothing of her friendship with the latter.
42	* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Vanessa taunts Mira about the lame nature of the power to simply talk with animals and swim. She answers to this by calling forward a huge murder of crows that entraps and attacks her.
43	* MeaningfulName: Mira can mean “sea” or “ocean” in Sanskrit, alluding to her swimming skills and ability to breathe underwater.
44	* ObliviousToLove: Doesn't appear to know that Kai is interested in her.
45	* OurMermaidsAreDifferent: [[PlayingWithATrope Played With]]. While Mira isn't one, she has mermaid-like powers, which include breathing underwater, communicating with animals and fishes and swimming excellently. Kai lampshades this at one point.
46	* ShipTease: With Adam. While she is later confirmed to be interested in him, the opposite isn't true and he turns her down.
47	* SpeaksFluentAnimal: She is capable of understanding and talking with animals as well as asking them to do various tasks, almost none of them refuse her.
48	* WaterIsWomanly: The compassionate, intelligent girl of the trio who serves as a conflict mediator. She has hair dyed blue at its tips and her name "Mira" means "sea/ocean" in Sanskrit, referencing her powers of breathing underwater and swimming at great speeds.
49	* WomenAreWiser: Played with. Mira is level headed for the most part though one episode shows her hallucinating from heatstroke while she, Kai, and Adam are stranded in the desert.

52	[[folder:Kai]]
53	!!Kai
54	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mainteam1.PNG]]
55
56	-> '''Voiced by''': Connor Parnall
57	A not so smart guy with a hot headed attitude. He has a superhuman understanding of machinery and discovers [[spoiler:fire]] powers during the [[spoiler: Theme Park Area.]]
58	----
59	* AbortedDeclarationOfLove: Gives one to Mira on their journey to retrieve the Ishibo.
60	* BlueIsHeroic: Primarily dresses in blue
61	* BookDumb: Overlaps with {{Malaproper}} but in the first season he confuses 'amnesia' with 'insomnia.'
62	* ButtMonkey: Always seems to get the short end of the stick in every situation.
63	* FieryRedhead: The member of the group most prone to emotional outbursts.
64	* GadgeteerGenius: He was able to get himself and his team out of the desert by building an airplane using the Four Horsemen's junkyard.
65	* HairColorDissonance: Kai appears as a redhead, but in the live-action scenes his hair is brown. This could be the lighting, but it's not certain.
66	* HeroicSelfDeprecation: As Mira and Adam showcase their superhuman powers, the only trait Kai shows in special is a strangely vast knowledge of STEM, which he thinks can't really be referred to as "superpowers". He gets better once his [[spoiler: pyrokinesis]] shows up.
67	* LonelyRichKid: Season 2 reveals that he's extremely wealthy, but his parents are rarely around and seem to fight when they are. Kai doesn't seem to have had many friends before the start of the series, save for his butler.
68	* MeaningfulName: Kai can mean “fire” in Scottish, alluding to his [[spoiler: pyrokinesis.]]
69	** Played with a bit at first due to belatedness. When first finding the paper with his name in his pocket, he mispronounces it as "Kay" (like the letter). Before correcting himself to believing it's "Kai", which gains its proper meaning at the amusement park when he discovers said [[spoiler: pyrokinesis.]]
70	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Attempting to do a good thing, Kai releases the other team from their ice prison, against Adam's suggestions. The other team takes the moment right after they are released to finally betray the main group and take the Ishibo to the Last Ironwood Tree.
71	* PlayingWithFire: After their time in the theme park, he develops the power of [[spoiler: manipulating and generating fire.]]
72	* RunningGag: Kai constantly assumes they're DeadAllAlong and asks for confirmation.
73	* ShorterMeansSmarter: The shortest of the group and also a scientific and mechanical wiz.
74	* TookALevelInBadass: After discovering his [[spoiler: pyrokinesis,]] Kai is considerably more powerful, one of the most powerful members of the humans.

78	[[folder:Reeve]]
79	!!Reeve
80	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jerk1.PNG]]
81
82	A thoroughly unpleasant Telekinetic who functions as the muscle for the other kids.
83	----
84	* CloneAngst: Of all of them, he seems to be hit hardest by the realization in the second season that he is a [[spoiler: digital clone and his real-life has gone on without him.]] He has to be talked back into the willingness to fight for his life.
85	* EveryoneHasStandards: It's confirmed in season 2 that he had no idea Vanessa [[spoiler: cheated on the game.]] When he finds out, he's angry with her and inadvertently endangering them with the glitches.
86	* InterruptedSuicide: Invoked. When he finds out that he and the others are duplicates in season 2, he suggests doing what Skeet did and die willingly so as to end their existence before the game reset does. Then the other team sets the fairy tale forest on fire, and he helps put it out. This revives his willingness to fight to live.
87	* LockedOutOfTheLoop: He and Skeet didn't know that Vanessa was [[spoiler: cheating with special contact lenses.]] If he had, he reveals that he wouldn't have stood for it.
88	* MindOverMatter: His powers allow him to go toe to toe with Adam, who is a master of combat.
89	* StrawNihilist: Reeve briefly becomes this in the second season when the group discovers that they’re [[spoiler: digital clones,]] believing that fighting for their existence is pointless because even if they succeed their [[spoiler: human selves]] will still live on outside the game and have actual lives without knowing that they even exist.
90	* WeUsedToBeFriends: A former good friend of Adam, but they have grown apart after their time in a team together due to them constantly butting heads and never being able to agree on anything. After a lot of infighting in the second season, they recover their friendship.
91	[[/folder]]
92
93	[[folder:Vanessa]]
94	!!Vanessa
95	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jerk2.PNG]]
96
97	The leader of the other kids. A girl with the power of flight and pink-purple hair.
98	----
99	* AmbiguousSituation: After reawakening in the real world, [[TheEndOrIsIt her left eye glitches out.]] Season 2 reveals that she was wearing special contacts that caused the glitch in the first place.
100	* AmnesiacDissonance: Subverted. It turns out she knew The Hollow was a game all along, having used special contacts to cheat the memory erasure. This explains why she was so ruthless: she knew there wouldn't be any actual danger to the other players.
101	* CharacterDevelopment: Only her duplicate goes through this; in season 2, she's hit with the realization that her [[spoiler: cheating created them as sentient clones, and is horrified when clone Skeet dies for real.]] After withdrawing into herself, she decides to make up for it by hindering the other team so that her friends have a chance to live.
102	* CheatersNeverProsper: Played straight; her attempt to gain an edge by wearing contact lenses to retain her memories ends up causing glitches, some that intentionally inhibit her team's ability to win. What's more, her betrayal of Kai and causing Adam to become fatally ill means that the other team doesn't hold back when they catch up.
103	* EveryoneHasStandards: She confirms in season 2 that she never would have hurt the other team for real.
104	* {{Flight}}: Has the ability to fly through the air for an unlimited amount of time.
105	* HeelFaceTurn: In season 2 she and the others join up with the main trio. She was arguably the major antagonist of season 1, but is now a good friend of the main team. In part, this comes from the guilt of realizing she was probably responsible for the [[spoiler: glitch that cloned them.]]
106	* HiddenDepths: Season 2 shows her not to be as cruel and malicious as Season 1 made her appear: She knew that she was in a game all along, so she never believed that she was placing Adam, Mira, or Kai in any real danger. She is also shown to have been motivated by intense pressure to [[WellDoneSonGuy prove to her parents that playing The Hollow was a worthwhile pursuit]], which is why she [[spoiler: cheated to get around the memory block.]]
107	* KarmaHoudini: She did [[spoiler: cheat]] and caused the game to glitch, all to win money on a show, that could have fried their brains. No one, not even the host, finds out about this in Season 1. She gets to be a GracefulLoser about it unless someone notices her contact lense glitching in the footage.
108	* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: On the other hand, her [[spoiler: duplicate is forced to deal with the consequences of her real counterpart's actions when she and the other duplicates are trapped in the game and generated as a result of the glitch.]] Duplicate Vanessa feels really guilty about this when she realizes they can all die for real.
109	* KickTheDog:
110	** When finally betraying Kai in the Ice Area, she taunts him about his naivete and proceeds to drop him from a high altitude.
111	** When Mira and Kai try to trick her, Skeet and Reeve into thinking that Adam died, her only reaction to having apparently caused the death of an innocent boy is an amusement and vague interest in the fact that it's actually possible to die in the game. In retrospect, this may have been because she believed that it really wasn't, as, glitches notwithstanding, players who die in the game just get sent back to the real world.
112	* LoveInterestTraitor: Pretends to return Kai's feelings only to later on betray and almost kill him in the Ice Area. This is subverted in season 2, where her confiding in him about the special contact lens she used to cheat and him giving her some emotional support. They seem to genuinely develop feelings for each other.
113	* ManipulativeBitch: Feigns ignorance towards the nature of the world around her to avoid the main characters' suspicion and pretends to be interested in Kai in order to get him to join her team.
114	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Even though technically she didn't do it -- that was real Vanessa cheating in the game-- her duplicate is horrified when realizing that her choice to wear the contact lense creating everyone's digital copies that can die for real in the game and are essentially trapped.
115	* SkewedPriorities: Even when the world is ''literally'' breaking apart around her, all she seems to care about is beating the main characters. One might justify it by saying she knew from the beginning that they were never in any real danger to begin with, but the glitches do make that statement a bit ambiguous.
116	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Season 2 reveals that she brought special contacts to keep her memories from being blocked once she was transferred into the game, causing the glitch in the first season and that glitch caused them to become sentient copies of their real-world selves once the game was over.
117	* TheVamp: Her primary method of interacting with the main characters is to find one way or the other to seduce Kai into helping her.
118	* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: {{Deconstructed}}. Her knowing that it was all a game made her nasty, manipulative and backstabbing towards the other team because she knew they wouldn't suffer physical injuries for real. Hurting Kai was the worst part of it since he saved her from being a permanent block of ice. Unfortunately, you're more likely to get an edge in the game if you're kind; Adam gets healed by the mutant spider when Kai repairs the king's legs, and the Benjamin brothers help Kai discover his powers when they stay to have fun rather than rushing through the theme park. It's implied that the real Adam, Mira and Kai are scarred from the experience and Vanessa's duplicate regrets her past behavior when she realizes her cheating created digital clones of the teams.
119	* WoundedGazelleGambit: Tries to pull one on Kai when her team is beaten in episode 9, claiming that Reeve and Skeet made her betray him. Needless to say, Kai doesn't buy it.

122	[[folder:Skeet]]
123	!!Bernard / Skeet
124	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jerk3.PNG]]
125
126	The third member of the other team. Possesses the power of super speed.
127	----
128	* DeadAlternateCounterpart: Skeet’s digital clone dies early on in Season 2, but his human self is still alive and well out in the real world.
129	* HeroicSacrifice: He dies saving Mira from a brainwashed Lou the snail.
130	* TheLoad: At the start of Season 2, he joins with the main group, however, he is sure that dying in the game is their best chance of leaving. Because everyone isn't sure of what could happen, they actually have to not only keep themselves safe, but also often save him as well. This doesn't last as he eventually is really killed pulling off a HeroicSacrifice.
131	* KilledOffForReal: The digital clone of Skeet is killed trying to save Mira in "Puzzles", being crushed by a giant snail.
132	* LockedOutOfTheLoop: It's confirmed that he and Reeve didn't know Vanessa was cheating. What's more, Reeve implies that Skeet wouldn't have stood for it.
133	* MeaningfulName: Skeet means “swift” in English, which thanks to his super speed, he is.
134	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: We don't learn his real name (Bernard) until Season 2.
135	* OnlySaneMan: He's the only one on his team who is concerned about the growing glitches in the world and was even willing to hear the other team out before his own team overrules him.
136	* SacrificialLion: He, like the other characters, has notable super powers, and is capable of fighting, or at least scaping, but in season 2, his digital clone dies and he stays dead, establishing the characters' lives are truly endangered now.
137	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: After witnessing the glitches worsening and seeing his team lose, he just runs away rather than keep trying to face the main characters.
138	* SuperSpeed: His secret power is to run faster than the human eye can see.

142	[[folder:The Weird Guy]]
143
144	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_hollow_weird_guy.PNG]]
145
146	-> '''Voiced by''': Music/MarkHildreth
147	A mysterious eccentric, purple man that offers his help to the group, but at an unspecified cost.
148	----
149	* BigGood: He can help the kids, and ultimately, he does warn Mira and Kai that they're in danger due to the worsening of the Glitch. Continues in Season 2, where he explains to the kids what they really are and ruins the scheme of an evil corporation just so that they can survive.
150	* CloudCuckooLander: The way he acts and talks makes it pretty clear that he needs a check-up from the neck up.
151	* ExorcistHead: Pulls this on the kids when they fail to tell him what the magic words are.
152	* EveryoneHasStandards: He will not kill or delete sentient computer code. When the duplicates confirm they have their memories and feelings, he stops sending them through a portal to get rid of them and seriously talks with them about why they are still in the Hollow.
153	* FailedASpotCheck: Apparently he and his film crew didn't bother to check the contestants for anything that may give them an edge, like special contact lenses.
154	* HeelRealization: As he's explaining to the kids about how the Hollow Corporation is stealing players' data to create duplicates, you can tell he knows how bad it sounds.
155	* HeroOfAnotherStory: During the last three episodes of season 2, he's transferring the Hollow Life game to a private server so the kids can return safely while hosting the game show like nothing is wrong ''and'' conveying instructions to the duplicates. He lampshades it before the last boss battle.
156	* HiddenDepths: It's revealed that he is a good singer and goes to hang around in virtual areas where he can show off. The kids are surprised.
157	* InkSuitActor: Mark Hildreth is the only member of the cast to carry over his role to the live-action epilogue (and prologue)
158	* LargeHam: He's prone to exaggerated mannerism and gets in people's faces when talking. Justified, since he is a game show host and has to give the audience a show.
159	* MeanCharacterNiceActor: It turns out that his {{Jerkass}} {{Troll}} persona is an act as a show host. He breaks character to warn Mira and Kai that the game is glitching and they're in danger of getting hurt for real. When they win, his real self makes it clear when they win that it was all for the show. It goes further in season 2 when he realizes their duplicates have gained sentience.
160	* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When the game starts to tear itself apart, he stops with his usual antics to warn Mira and Kai that they're in (potentially) mortal danger.
161	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: He's only referred to as Weirdy or The Weird Guy. Only in the last episode of Season 1 onward do we learn his real name, Gustav.
162	* PalsWithJesus: He's friends with Death, one of the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse.
163	* PurpleIsPowerful: The most powerful, and definitely the most mysterious character in the show, and his skin is fully purple. Except that in the live-action segment, his purple color is revealed as [[UnnaturallyBlueLighting merely the effect]] of [[MoodLighting stage lighting]].
164	* ThinkingUpPortals: He can generate portals to any location he pleases, which he does upon request. Players only get five, though, and he refuses to teleport them to the exit.
165	* YouCalledMeXItMustBeSerious: In Season 2, he realizes that the digital copies of the kids are sentient when they call him by his real name of Gustav, which they would only know if they remembered their lives in the real world.
166	[[/folder]]
167
168	[[folder:Team B]]
169	!!Nisha, Iris, and Tyler
170
171	A team of players from another round of the game. If they win or lose the game, the game stops, putting the main characters in danger.
172	----
173	* AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: Iris is shown to be a sort of ShrinkingViolet, quickly running behind her team when confronted with anything, however, once she uses her powers, she shows a quite cheeky side of herself.
174	* AntagonistAbilities: Tyler's WeatherManipulation easily outclasses the abilities of all the other characters, allowing him to call down lightning and trap people in massive cyclones even from a long distance. Violet's SizeShifting does this to a lesser degree, allowing her to easily overpower even Adam's SuperStrength. This even extends to their special weapon being a WaveMotionGun rather than a simple wooden staff.
175	* AntiVillain: They're only aggressively competitive and think that the main kids are equally so [[CassandraTruth despite them insisting they aren't]].
176	* {{BFG}}: In their game, the {{MacGuffin}} is a bazooka-like weapon that seems to shoot nukes.
177	* EscortMission: The fight against Olym is a mix of this and a usual FinalBoss fight. The main characters can't let Team B win or lose the game, so they can't let them defeat Olym, but can't let them take damage either.
178	* FailedASpotCheck: They recovered the giant BFG from the mansion but not the key that activates it.
179	* JerkassHasAPoint: Played for laughs. In "Race", they all react with confusion and dismay to the main characters simultaneously protecting and sabotaging them, yelling at them what their problem is. Safe to say, ''anyone'' would be more than irritated in the same situation.
180	* LetsYouAndHimFight: It happens in their first encounter with the main cast. Adam and Mira try to explain they're not part of the game and just want to see Weirdy in the Parisian bar, but Nisha assumes they're a rival team. They refuse to listen and curb-stomp the teens, taking the key Adam grabbed from the mansion.
181	* PlayingWithFire: Nisha, the team leader, uses fire powers similar to Kai. The rules of The Hollow dictate that no two players can have the same powers, so this clues the main characters that they're no longer considered players.
182	* SizeShifter: Iris is capable of changing her size from a short person into a giant.
183	* WeatherManipulation: Tyler's powers are to control the weather, which he uses to attack by summoning lightning, storms and other things.
184	* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Once they manage to unlock their Ishibo equivalent, they go around using it recklessly without regard to how it may harm the [=NPCs=] of the Hollow because they know it's just a game. This is to contrast with the main kids' perspective on how they come to view digital life as equally important as "real" life.

208	* FangsAreEvil: He is the only minotaur to be depicted with jagged fangs.
209	* ImAHumanitarian: The main reason why the other minotaurs are scared of him. However, he won't shy away from any humans either.
210	* MonstrousCannibalism: The various skeletons strewn about in his maze show that he doesn't hesitate to feast on his own species.
211	* NoseNuggets: He lets loose a stream of snot onto Kai, who's about as disgusted as you'd expect from someone who was sneezed on by a man-eating minotaur.
212	* OurMinotaursAreDifferent: Par for the course, considering he's a minotaur, who's also a cannibal of his own kind. And whereas the other minotaurs in the desert are civilized enough to speak their own language and form their own society, Taurus is just a snarling monster who eats anyone who enters his maze.

219	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/KathleenBarr
220	Three sisters who live underneath Toros' temple. One should not be fooled by their innocent appearance.
221	----
222	* BackForTheFinale: They briefly re-appear in the last episode. The game's [[AGlitchInTheMatrix glitches]] makes short work of them, though.
223	* BerserkButton: For some reason, the first one got really agitated when she suspected the kids might not trust her.
224	* FatteningTheVictim: Though never outright stated, it's ''heavily'' implied that's what the first one was doing with the kids.
225	* DeadlyLunge: Their main way of attacking.
226	* {{Foreshadowing}}:
227	** The first one gives the kids a cryptic warning that they cannot go home until they've met "him". She either meant Death, who was waiting in the very next area, or Colrath, the FinalBoss of the game.
228	** The third one chants "Death is your friend" as she chases the main kids. Death is actually residing in the desert outside the caves and becomes an important ally to the kids later on.
229	* GreenAndMean: Their true forms have sickly green, leathery skin and they're ''really'' not as nice as they want you to think they are.
230	* ImAHumanitarian: Though they seem to be interested in their victims souls the most, they also seem to include body parts in the regular meals they cook.
231	* KarmicDeath: The second one dies by being pushed into their own oven by Adam.
232	* NothingButSkinAndBones: In their real forms they're unnervingly thin, almost skeletal.
233	* SoulEating: What their ''real'' primary food source is.
234	* StepfordSmiler: In their human form they have a pleasant smile on their faces at all times.
235	* WallCrawl: The third one sneaks up on and attacks the kids by crawling on the tunnel ceiling.
236	* YellowEyesOfSneakiness: In their true form they have yellow pupils and black sclera.

246	A prominent member of the Four Horsemen. The team encounters him in the Desert Area, tending to his sick horse.
247	----
248	* AffablyEvil: When the kids imply Mira might be able to save his horse, he immediately offers them refreshments and a place to rest. The second it looks like it might be too late for Mira to do anything about his sick pet however, he goes right back to threatening them.
249	* BewareTheSillyOnes: He frequently acts melodramatic and campy but he is still TheGrimReaper and can be very threatening at times.
250	* InTouchWithHisFeminineSide: His hobbies include baking and making Ice Tea.
251	* {{Irony}}: His horse, Mr. Jeepers, is clearly at the last legs of his life, refusing to eat or drink and looking very sick and exhausted. Those who work with animals or have pets would realize that this is the time to euthanize this animal so that they wouldn't have to suffer any longer. His fellow horsemen mock him for this.
252	* SinisterScythe: He wields one of these as expected and uses it to threaten the team with decapitation if they fail to heal Mr. Jeepers.

304	* FastballSpecial: She tosses Adam and Mira over to the Ice World, where Kai and the Ishibo can be found.
305	* OldMaster: She has shades of this. Besides being an incredibly old and wise being, she is also the only inhabitant of the Hollow who actually helps the kids by providing them advice, directions and determining if they're already worthy to face Colrath.
306	* LastOfHerKind: According to her.
307	* StealthMentor: When Adam and Mira explain what happened to the Ishibo, she's disappointed and explains she can only help them if she gets it back. She then grabs them and tosses them towards the ice floes, shouting they're not worthy, "yet" but implying they need to move.

315	----
316	* AuthoritySoundsDeep: Speaks in a deep, guttural growl, fitting for the leader of a bunch of demon monks.
317	* DisneyVillainDeath: After trying to make Adam fall from the ledge they are dueling on, Adam gets the upper hand and takes the Ishibo back, after which the ledge that Akuma had weakened with his previous attacks crumbles under his feet. He then proceeds to fall from his floating temple and to his doom.
318	* GameShowHost: In the second season, he returns as one called Andy Kuma, who hosts a show fashioned after ''Let's Make A Deal''.

326	A creature residing on an abandoned space ship.
327	----
328	* DarkerAndEdgier: Other than most of the other antagonists, the threat it presents to the main trio is played completely straight.

330	* ShoutOut: In appearance and behavior, it greatly resembles the Xenomorph from ''Film/{{Alien}}''.
331	* XenomorphXerox: It's basically a Xenomorph, though more reptilian and green.

339	* BaldHeadOfToughness: Both are big, burly, and bald.
340	* BashBrothers: Bonus points for them being actual brothers.
341	* BigBrotherInstinct: Benjamin is immensely protective of Benjamini and dotes on him as if he were a child.
342	* BigGuyLittleGuy: Benjamin is a lot taller than his brother.
343	* ManlyFacialHair: Typical of old-fashioned circus strongmen, they have big handlebar mustaches.
344	* {{Foreshadowing}}: Benjamin states that he and his brother never left the park. When Mira asks if they were born there, he says that he doesn't remember. Him and his brothers are [=NPCs=] in a video game, so of course they never left the area designated to them.
345	* {{CloudCuckooLander}}: They're not that bad, just...very enthusiastic about their theme park.
346	* LeotardOfPower: Traditional strongman edition.
347	* {{Manchild}}: They ''really'' like having fun.

358	An old man that lives beneath the cemetery of the ghost town.
359	----
360	* BlindSeer: What he appears to be. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]. He's not actually blind, he's just wearing sunglasses.
361	* TheBusCameBack: He reappears in the final episode as the main team tries to get back to the Ironwood Tree, warning them about the enemies to come.
362	* CloudCuckooLander: He lives in the catacombs underneath the Ghost Town, gives people he has just met prophecies about the immediate future by putting his hand on their forehead and walks around with sunglasses for no discernible reason.
363	* {{Foreshadowing}}:
364	** Upon reading Mira's future he suddenly shouts out to beware Colrath. Colrath is the name of the dragon the kids have to defeat in the final level of the game.
365	** When he repeats the procedure with Adam, he gives a shocked gasp and slowly backs away. When Adam asks him if he saw anything, he simply replies that it's best Adam doesn't know. While it's never confirmed directly, this could have been foreshadowing Adam's almost-death in the Ice Area.
366	** He glitches briefly after seeing Adam and Mira off, cluing Adam in that they're in a video game.
367	* WalkingSpoiler: We can't talk about Dave without mentioning his glitch.

375	* JustDesserts: After the party frees Louie from his mind control, Louie takes his revenge by eating Voulcan.
376	* {{Magitech}}: His work is part science, part magic. He uses a spell to control people, but is fashioned after a MadScientist, and uses chemicals as weapons.
377	* MadScientist: He concocts all kinds of potions and machines in his lab and turns innocent people and animals into his servants.
378	* MindControlDevice: By using a piece of someone, such as a strand of hair, he can use potions to mind control people. And giant snails.
379	[[/folder]]
380
381	[[folder:Louie]]
382	A giant snail that lives around the Chateau and attacks the kids.
383	----
384	* TheDogBitesBack: After being free from Voulcan's mind control, Louie takes revenge and eats Voulcan,
385	* HeroKiller: While he is mind-controlled, Louie kills Skeet, crushing him to death.
386	* ALizardNamedLiz: He's a Lou Carcolh and his name is Louie.
387	* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: He has rows and rows of teeth, which is way more than any extant animal should have, let alone a snail.
388	* MightyGlacier: Louie is a giant snail. As such he moves very slow but is very difficult to defeat. The kids don't actually beat him head on.
389	* MindControl: Voulcan controls Louie this way using a MindControlDevice.

401	* GiantFlyer: Almost as big as the castle he's guarding.
402	* TurnsRed: He turns ''blue'' and shoots lightning out of his mouth after the trio takes him down the first time.

405	[[folder:Olym]]
406	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/olym.PNG]]
407	The FinalBoss Team B has to defeat to win their game. A gigantic robot made of scraps that is hidden beneath a pile of scraps in a junkyard.
408	----
409	* AmbiguouslyRelated: He may or may not be an invention of Voulcan, since he is connected to the bazooka that is his invention
410	* AttackItsWeakPoint: He has a keyhole on his back that is shaped exactly like the head of Team B's {{Macguffin}}. Defeating him requires incapacitating him by shooting him with the bazooka, then inserting the bazooka into the keyhole to deactivate him for good.
411	* BadassBoast: "I am Olym. I choose who lives and who dies. Only the strong will survive."
412	* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: He is this to the previous FinalBoss, Olym is a gigantic robot PuzzleBoss that lives in a junkyard; Colrath is a straightforward boss fight and is a giant dragon protecting a castle.
413	* GiantScrapRobot: Olym makes his appearance known by forming his body out of the mountain-sized pile of scrap in the middle of the junkyard.
414	* HumongousMecha: A giant robot, seemingly built from scraps.
415	* PuzzleBoss: Unlike Colrath, which simply had to be beaten into defeat, Olym requires a specific strategy to defeat it. The bazooka that Team B has is not meant to hurt it, exactly, but to be used as a key for the keyhole in his back, which will actually destroy him.
416	* SocialDarwinist: In his BadassBoast he cites that only those who are strong can survive him.
