3	!!Humans
4
5	[[folder:Wally]]
6	!!Wallace "Wally" Foster
7
8	Our hero. A young social worker who has been recently transferred to District C. Having been raised around humans and never seeing a monster for real in his life leaves him out of the loop with what monsters are really experiencing under the rather separatist rule of Fairway, and thus, is a bit ignorant and naive.
9	----
10
11	* AffectionateNickname: Wally.
12	* AmbiguouslyGay: If his initial reactions [[CrushBlush toward Ben]] and nice, clean, well-decorated houses is anything to go by.
13	* ButtMonkey: Cemented upon his first day on the job as most of them slammed their doors on his face.
14	* CrashIntoHello: The comment on [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/174 this page]] {{lampshades}} his bad habit of not watching where he's going. In turn, it links to a page from the prologue (in which he met Roy G. Biv).
15	* FishOutOfWater: Before the story really began, he has not seen a monster in his life. This causes some issues.
16	* GagNose: His triangular schnoz that doesn't even look like it's a part of his face.
17	* HairColorDissonance: Since the third chapter's ArtEvolution, his hair turned from less yellow/blond to a somewhat orange/auburn color.
18	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: A rare male example.
19	* LuminescentBlush: Quite often. [[HoYay Especially with Ben]].
20	* MrFanservice: [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/66 See for yourself]].
21	* NiceGuy: He truly means well, even though he puts his foot in his mouth at times.
22	* ShipTease: A lot with Ben in later chapters.
23	* ShirtlessScene: At the end of the prologue when he's about to sleep and at the beginning of the first chapter when waking up, which then culminates into a ShowerScene.
24	* {{Squee}}: Upon seeing [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/93 the living room of Louise's house]]. At his reaction, all Louise could do is cringe.
25	%%* ThisLoserIsYou
26	* TokenHuman: Seemingly at first, but averted. He's later joined by two female humans and more human characters are introduced along the way.
27	* WhatExactlyIsHisJob: He's a social worker. Full details are explained in [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/89 this page]].
28	* WideEyedIdealist: Ben sees this in him.

31
32	[[folder:Kate]]
33	!!Kate Porter
34
35	A waitress at Cuddy's cafe who also supports equality for monsters and humans.
36	----
37	* CameraFiend: According to her profile, she loves photography and carries a camera everywhere.
38	%%* NiceGirl
39	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Blonde and a total sweet heart.
40	* ShipperOnDeck:
41	** The first to insinuate if Roy and Kip were on a date.
42	** Towards Wallace and Kip also. [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/131 Just from the look of her face]] she's expecting more from them than helping each other.
43	%%* {{Tomboy}}
44	%%* YouthfulFreckles

47
48	[[folder:Cuddy]]
49	!!Florence Cuddy
50
51	The owner of Cuddy's Cafe and visibly supports acceptance and equality as her establishment caters to everyone regardless of race.
52	----
53	* AlliterativeName: Her business, Cuddy's Cafe.
54	%%* LastNameBasis
55	* NerdGlasses: Wears one with huge, square lenses.
56	* TheStoic: Described as such in her profile with "her facial expression stay[ing] at a normal rate of 'unimpressed'" [[{{Subverted}} but is able to give a little smile]], so the example here is not as extreme as others.
57	%%* WomenAreWiser
58
59	[[/folder]]
60
61	[[folder:Jerry]]
62	!!Jerry
63
64	A co-worker of Wallace's from District A. From what we know so far, he's quite misinformed of what monsters are really like.
65	----
66	%%* BitCharacter
67	* TheGhost: In the very beginning of the prologue, he's just someone Wallace was talking to on the phone and sent him a message. He makes an appearance in Chapter One in a flashback.
68	* {{Jerkass}}: Judging by what we assume he's saying to Wallace as he steps in the room of his apartment, asking if he cried yet at the first monster he saw and sending him a message that doesn't really ease up Wallace's anxiety.
69	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: In reality though, when he was telling him about the transfer, he's actually quite supportive and tells him that he doesn't have to do it if he doesn't want to. Still, he made fun of him when he got there which could just be his way of showing his concern.
70
71	[[/folder]]
72
73	[[folder:Louise]]
74	!!Louise Spence
75
76	A human Wallace meets while on the way to meet his last client, Charlie Flannigan, and is said client's roommate.
77	----
78	* AmbiguousGender: The use of they/them pronouns by the author implies that Louise is genderqueer.
79	* DarkIsNotEvil: They look rather intimidating but turn out to be alright once Wallace has gotten to know them.
80	%%* DelinquentHair
81	* GenderBlenderName: It adds to the ambiguity.
82	* IllKillYou: Pretty much the threat they gave to Wallace.
83	--> '''Louise''': If you do anything to break my trust... I'll snap you in '''half'''.
84	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Not only they let Wallace in, they serve him tea and gives important details that Wallace should know about Charlie.
85
86	[[/folder]]
87
88	[[folder:Eno]]
89	!!Doctor Eno Lacroix
90
91	Kip's therapist in District B who is a bit on the eccentric side.
92	----
93	%%* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}
94	* GayBravado: Often referring to Kip affectionately with [[EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench French romantic expressions]] to flirt with him playfully. He's aware of this though and knows when to stop, especially when Kip is visibly not in the mood.
95	* GratuitousFrench: When not making puns.
96	* NiceGuy: Tends to annoy Kip a lot for fun, but is nice. And does his job quite well.
97	* PungeonMaster: He takes that advantage for Kip being an ice monster and milks it for all its worth. Indeed, they ''are'' [[IncrediblyLamePun incredibly lame]].
98	* ThereAreNoTherapists: Untrue since he ''is'' one and tends to Kip who is suffering from a past traumatic experience.
99
100	[[/folder]]
101
102	[[folder:Crimmins]]
103	!! Mr. Crimmins
104
105	Wallace Foster's boss and is most likely the shadowed figure seen in Charlie's flashback.
106	----
107	%%* AmbiguouslyBrown
108	* BadBoss: Prior to his introduction, there have been passing comments by the author about this. And judging by the way he speaks to Wallace on the phone much later in the story, he really is.
109	* BigBad: At the very least, he is heavily implied to be this.
110	* FourEyesZeroSoul: As far as we know, he has been using monsters for experiences.
111	* TheGhost: He's mentioned before, only to be referred to as what role he plays toward the protagonist.
112	* KnightOfCerebus: The dark undertones of the plot are all seemingly caused by him.
113	* PsychoticSmirk: As seen in this page [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/184 here]].
114	-->'''Mr. Crimmins''': ''(to Wallace)'' After all, I expect great things from you.
115	* ScaryShinyGlasses: Whether as a completely shadowed figure, or in plain sight.
116
117	[[/folder]]
118
119	!!Monsters
120
121	[[folder:Kip]]
122	!!Kipland "Kip" Kaizer
123
124	Through his blog, he supports the cause of those who fight for human and monster equality and is well known throughout the district. Though he comes off as cold and disagreeable, he genuinely concerns for his friends and loved ones.
125	----
126	* AlliterativeName
127	* AnIcePerson: Er... monster, we mean.
128	* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: A friendship variant. Most people he know tend to get under his nerves, but he really cherishes them and does not mind a hug from them or two.
129	* ChickMagnet: As Cuddy stated, he attracts a lot of business because he's popular with girls [[EvenTheGuysWantHim and guys]].
130	%%* ChildhoodFriends: With Molly.
131	* CooldownHug: Usually receives one from Roy. He's quick to give in since he actually likes it.
132	* CuddleBug: [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/41 Molly describes him as such]].
133	* DarkAndTroubledPast: His profile states that he's suffered a great loss that he prefers not to talk about. This will obviously come into head as the story progresses.
134	* DeadpanSnarker
135	* {{Deuteragonist}}: He gets second billing as the hero.
136	* EmbarrassingNickname: "Kipster"
137	%%* {{Hipster}}: Parodied.
138	* OldFlame: He and Pascal used to date. [[NewOldFlame: Both seem to get back together. It's implied the flame was never even put out in the first place]].
139	* RedOniBlueOni: Blue to Roy's red oni. Also the Blue to Wallace's Red.
140	* SecretKeeper: Played with, he has a folder possibly containing vital information, but it was left by his missing brother, and he is too afraid to open and read it.
141	* WhenHeSmiles: It's usually the most adorable thing. It's saying a lot considering he looks so distant most of the time.
142
143	[[/folder]]
144
145	[[folder:Roy]]
146	!!Roy G. Biv
147
148	A very happy, outgoing, and colorful monster. Is especially nice to everyone and loves to give hugs.
149	----
150	* AmbiguousDisorder: Molly says he is remembering things that never happened, and mistaking her for someone else from his childhood.
151	* AmbiguousSituation: It's ambiguous though if he really is remembering wrong or Molly does not remember things from her past. A Conversation between Molly and Ben imply the former, while a conversation between Louise and Roy imply the latter. Futher complicating things is Molly had a toy identical to Roy (Just smaller) given to her by her dad. This brings up the question: is Roy actually a monster that ''looks like a toy'' or is he some form of [[LivingToys animated toy]] [[CartoonCreature misidentified as a monster]]?
152	* CuddleBug: Most definitely. [[http://monsterkind.enenkay.com/comic/40 SUPER HUG!]] And aww, look at Kip...
153	* EyeScream: Played for laughs, but when he needs to sleep, he can remove his eyes, not unlike detachable googly eyes.
154	* FriendToAllChildren: He works at a daycare, and is hugely loved by the children.
155	* GentleGiant
156	* TheGlomp: Does this to Charlie.
157	* {{Keet}} Oh so very much. Very little gets him down.
158	* LastNameBasis: Addressed as Biv sometimes.
159	* LivingToys: His anatomy is roughly that of an animated rag doll or puppet and his body parts are all detatchable, with some being sewn-on and replacable.
160	* MeaningfulName: "Roy G. Biv" as in "ROYGBIV", the acronym used to list all the colors of a rainbow[[note]]'''R'''ed, '''O'''range, '''Y'''ellow, '''G'''reen, '''B'''lue, '''I'''ndigo, '''V'''iolet[[/note]].
161	* MonsterClown[=/=]CreepyDoll: A cuter and more benign version, however.
162	%%* MotorMouth
163	* NoIndoorVoice: To the point that Kip has to remind him:
164	-->'''Kip''': Roy. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Inside. Voices]].
165	* OneHeadTaller: He is 6'7" so it's frequent whenever he's alongside someone.
166	* PunnyName: He's named after the colors of the rainbow.
167	* RainbowMotif: He is heavily associated with the rainbow, and an extra comic shows he can't pick his favorite color.
168	* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Kip's blue oni.
169	* SpikyHair: The three horn-like points forming his hair.
170
171	[[/folder]]
172
173	[[folder:Molly]]
174	!!Molly Monday
175
176	Acts as the caring voice among her friends, and has known Kip since they were little.
177	----
178	* AlliterativeName
179	* BespectacledCutie: Kind-hearted and wearing glasses so big they actually cover all of her four eyes.
180	* ChildhoodFriends: With Kip. Molly is sure she's NOT this Roy, while he's sure he is.
181	* CutenessOverload: She [[CuteGlassesGirl dons glasses]],
182	has CuteLittleFangs, and is [[CuteMonsterGirl an adorable monster]]
183	* DopeSlap: Usually to Kip when he does something stupid, like snubbing Wallace upon first meeting him. Because her hands are huge, they're usually equivalent to a hard slap on the back of the head.
184	* ExtraEyes: She has two smaller eyes by the side of her normal ones.
185	* GenkiGirl
186	* OnlySaneMan: She seems to be the most emotionally stable character in the main group.
187	* ShipperOnDeck: Seems to be cheering to Kip and Pascal get back together.
188	* StealthPun: She has literally 4 eyes, and uses big glasses.
189	* TeamMom: Despite being the youngest of the trio.
190	* YouAreNotAlone: She does this to both Wallace and Ben. Reassuring that she will be there to help them whenever needed.
191
192	[[/folder]]
193
194	[[folder:Ben]]
195	!!Benjamin "Ben" Baker
196
197	The landlord of the apartment complex where Wallace is staying in.
198	----
199	* AlliterativeName
200	%%* BigOlEyebrows
201	* BigBeautifulMan: He's rather large and also fairly handsome.
202	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Similar to Kip, he lost someone he deeply cared about.
203	* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference : Since the third chapter (Chapter Two), Ben seemed to have gained a good amount of weight. And [[http://40.media.tumblr.com/ee3a2f712f0708cfb5e1da2a25ee55d9/tumblr_ncxr4nI3PA1s9ny6qo1_400.png as seen here]], the change in the way he was drawn is especially jarring. His horn was also less noticeable back then.
204	* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Wallace is completely flushed when they first met.
205	* GreenEyedMonster: Sees himself as this. He feels bad for being envious of how Kip got over his grief easier than him.
206	* HornedHumanoid: He has two visible horns camouflaged by his brown hair.
207	* MessyHair
208	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Ben is quite level headed and dislikes it when people pester Wallace due to how Kip treated him.
209	* ShipTease: With Wallace. They almost kiss in a later chapter, only to be blocked by Kip.
210	* SmokingIsCool
211
212	[[/folder]]
213
214	[[folder:Charlie]]
215	!!Charlie Flannigan
216
217	A client of Wallace Foster, currently under the care of Louise. Upon first meeting the human, he proves to be the most unpleasant monster so far... at least, that's what it looked like at first.
218	----
219	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: His interaction with Wallace [[spoiler: up to slamming his head on the coffee table and throwing death threats at him]] makes it all clear. It sets up for a SubvertedTrope as detailed on the main page.
220	* GoodScarsEvilScars: He has a missing eye where his eyelids are stitched shut. Someone who looks like that should be obviously evil but as EstablishingCharacterMoment says however...
221	* HidingBehindYourBangs: His hair has bangs upon first appearing; they hide his lost right eye [[spoiler: due to being the subject of an experimentation]].
222	* PrecisionFStrike: The first character to actually curse in a comic where the dialogue has been clean so far.
223	--> '''Charlie''': Just stay away from us you piece of '''shit'''!!
224	* RealMenWearPink: He's the one responsible for all the flowers in the house Wallace was squeeing about earlier since in a later page, he's seen tending to them.
225	%%* RuggedScar
226	%%* ReptilesAreAbhorrent
227	* {{Tsundere}}: Behaves this way towards Louise.
228
229	[[/folder]]
230
231	[[folder:Sal]]
232	!!Sal A. Mander
233
234	One of Wallace's clients. A monster who's defining trait is that he's yet to be seen sober.
235	----
236	* TheAlcoholic: Pretty much. Always a bottle on hand.
237	* HiddenDepths: Somewhat invoked. In his drunken stupor, he tells Wallace that he [[TakeOurWordForIt "know[s] things about stuff"]]. He also added the fact about Wallace coming from District A and how that just rubs off to him and the other monsters the wrong way, which he might be able to articulate more clearly if he weren't so inebriated.
238	* PunnyName: On Salamander.
239
240	[[/folder]]
241
242	[[folder:Briggs]]
243	!!Pascal Briggs
244
245	The owner of Big Briggs Teas.
246	----
247	* BigBeautifulMan: He is the biggest male in the main group, it seems to be both fat and muscle, nonetheless, both Wallace and Kip seems taken by his charm.
248	* CrashIntoHello: How he and Wallace met.
249	* HomoeroticSubtext: In a way, especially when he invites Wallace to come drop by at his place (the tea shop he owns), calls him [[AffectionateNickname "Wally"]], and describing their {{crash into hello}} as "it almost feels like it was meant to happen", making it all seem like he was flirting with him.
250	* MaleGaze: Played with. He gets even hotter in Kip's fantasies on the extra comic.
251	* NiceGuy: Despite his unsettling appearance and ability to make Wallace feel a bit uncomfortable, he's a pretty alright monster.
252	* OldFlame: of Kip's. Molly states that their relationship was the best Kip ever had. [[NewOldFlame Both seem to want to start over, and it's ambiguous whether the flame was ever put out in the first place]].
253	* TentacleRope: He uses this to help Wallace up his feet after they bump into each other. When doing a "handshake", he only coils at the entire hand.
254
