12----
13* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: In the ''Heroes and Villains'' demo, she gets picked on by Jeanne and her friends. When she first appears, Grasshead tricks her into falling off the top of the bathroom stalls, and almost immediately after, Jeanne has Brawn assault her for her lunch money despite Brains saying she already spent it. To make matters worse, her fellow students and even her teacher show no concern for her. Her entire motive for becoming a superhero is in part to get back at Jeanne for this.

21* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Her real name is Mary, but everyone calls her Brains.
22* OnlySaneWoman: She and Brawn become a two-person variant after Brains stops acting goofy. They comment on the insanity around them and try to appeal to [[spoiler:Jeanne]]'s good side when everyone else hates them.
23* SadClown: She spends the first area being a goofy girl who makes off comments and snarks at people. Then when captured by the Gambler and meeting Brawn, she stops and reveals something about herself.
24-->Can I tell you something? [[spoiler:I admit. I have not been taking anything seriously since the takeover. I do not want to accept that this is happening. That our lives are being ruined by some [=BUTThead=]. And the more I keep acting like all of this is a joke. The more I can forget about her big FAT STUPID-]]

35* EvilRedhead: Subverted in Heroes and Villains, where she initially is part of the gang of bullies picking on Brains, but becomes an ally.
36* HeelFaceTurn: In the Heroes and Villains demo, she initially serves Jeanne and helps her pick on Brains, but gradually has a change of heart.
37* HisNameReallyIsBarkeep: When Brains reveals that her heal name is Mary and asks Brawn for her real name, she simply responds with.. Brawn. Subverted with the demos, which reveal her true name as Geri Taylor.
38* LazyBum: In the Heroes and Villains demo, her "essay" is a picture of a Wikipedia article, while in Project BNB, she doesn't even bother with that, instead just trying to bribe her teacher with money into giving her a good grade for zero work done.
39* MsExposition: She explains the situation involving [[spoiler:the bullying Jeanne went through that drove her to evil]], as well as [[spoiler:the abuse Gale suffered at the hands of his father]].

47[[folder:Queen Jeanne Panini/Mean Jeanne The Ice Cream Queen (spoilers)]]
48->Hey. So, people of Ravena. [[AsYouKnow You already know]] that I'm working on my new theme park. "Ice Cream Jeanne's Theme Park Dream." It's gonna be great. It's gonna be so big and badass. A reminder of who is the one and only Queen of Ravena. Everybody better be there once it's completed, or else.
49
50A high school girl who bullied Brains and is secretly the leader of a gang of super villains out to conquer Ravena City. As of the main game, she has become the new mayor and ruler of Ravena City, which she rules via her Ice Creamlins.
51----
52* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: In school, the other kids would call her fat, nerdy, loser, and bully her in other ways, like spray-painting her student-of-the-year picture to give her an ugly mustache. It got so bad she dropped out just four months before graduation and ended up in a dead-end fast-food job- where her manager would also abuse her.
53* AlphaBitch: In ''Heroes and Villains'', she is the leader of a gang of girls consisting of herself, Brawn, and Grasshead who pick on Brains every day. She also brags about her popularity to her minions.
54-->I don't want to brag, but since I'm pretty well known at my school [Brawn] always wants to suck up to me. I got her to beat up some nerd today. But then she felt bad about it and started crying.
55* BadBoss: In the demos, she not only bosses around her subordinates, but physically and verbally abuses Brawn whenever she is displeased with her.
56* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: She used to be a quiet, timid, and insecure girl who was bullied all the time. Then Gale and The Gambler came along and transformed her into an egotistical tyrant and [[AlphaBitch nasty bully herself]] who torments Brains for being a fat nerd- exactly the same way she was treated.
57* BerserkButton: Being called fat. In the ''Alpha'' demo, when Coach says this to her, she gets so mad that she begins her plot to TakeOverTheCity right there, while in the full game, when Brains calls her a "fat boy", she tries to beat her up, beginning a boss fight. This stems from the bullying she received in school, where the bullies would pick on her for being fat. The only person who can do this and get away with it is her boyfriend Gale, and even he eventually gets shot when he pushes his luck too far with her.
58* BigBad: In the demos, where Brains must stop her from taking over Ravena City. She appears to be this in the full game as the successful dictator of Ravena, but she turns out to be a pawn of Gale.
59* BigBeautifulWoman: She gives herself this image to her citizens to compensate for being called fat in school.
60-->'''Creamlin''': "Holy crap. Jeanne is so thick. Like I'm no chubby chaser but. Holy crap. Just holy CRAP. What I wouldn't do for a piece of that."
61* DiscOneFinalBoss: She is initially built up as the villain who took over the city, but it is revealed she is just TheDragon to her boyfriend Gale, who manipulated her into it.
62* TheDragon: To Gale, her boyfriend, as she does whatever he tells her to.
63* DualBoss: She fights you alongside The Gambler in the ''Heroes and Villains'' demo and alongside Gale in the end of the full game.

66* FinalBoss: She and Gale fight you as a DualBoss at the end.

68* FromNobodyToNightmare: From a widely bullied student and fast-food worker to tyrannical mayor of Ravena.
69* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: She is known as the Ice Cream Queen and uses her ice cream to brainwash the citizens of Ravena.
70* HeelFaceTurn: At the end of the game, she turns on Gale and kills him. Then she serves as an ally in the second ''VideoGame/{{Annventure}}'' and is one of the heroes of the third.
71* IChooseToStay: Despite being from a different dimension, she chooses to stay in the ''Annventure'' world at the end of ''An Annventure To End Them All'', seeing as she is a wanted criminal in her home universe.
72* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: For all her posturing and attempts to make everyone love her, complete with [[SigilSpam plastering pictures and statues of herself everywhere]], reading the notes inside her house reveals that she hates herself and slaps herself every night, and her self-esteem is dependent on her boyfriend Gale.
73* LastMinuteHookup: Gets together with Rudy at the end of ''An Annventure to End Them All''.
74* LoveMakesYouEvil: In ''Brains and Brawn Alpha'', the death of her boyfriend is what turned her into a supervillainess who wants to take over Ravena, while in the full game, her very much still alive boyfriend Gale is the one who sets her on the path to villainy by manipulating her into serving as his frontwoman.
75* OfficialCouple: With Rudy as of ''An Annventure To End Them All''.
76* MayorPain: As the new mayor of Ravena, she puts citizens under mind control via hypnotic ice cream and uses them as slave labor.
77* PromotedToPlayable: Is one of the protagonists of ''An Annventure to End Them All''.
78* PuppetKing: She is supposedly the new Queen of Ravena, but in reality she is under Gale's control, with her having little will of her own.
79* SelfHarm: She likes to slap herself every night. Her boyfriend Gale is just annoyed by it.
80* SinisterShades: She has a pair of green shades on at all times to add to her menacing look. It originally belonged to her MeanBoss back at the Weiner House where she worked, but The Gambler gave them to her after killing the manager.
81* ToxicFriendInfluence: To Brawn. In the ''Heroes and Villains'' demo, she uses Brawn to bully Brains while privately admitting she finds her an annoyance rather than a friend, later trying to emotionally extort Brawn into joining her plot to TakeOverTheCity by threatening to break off their friendship. In ''Alpha'', she outright physically assaults Brawn.
82* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Ice cream, to the point that she calls herself the Ice Cream Queen and styles her supervillain persona after ice cream.
83* UnholyMatrimony: With her boyfriend Gale, as both work together to TakeOverTheCity and cement their takeover via a wedding. Though it is abusive on his part and falls apart when he pushes her one too many times.

85* WarmupBoss: She is the first boss of the full game, fought at the theater.
86* WeCanRuleTogether: In ''Heroes and Villains'', she makes this offer to Brawn.
87-->Yeah. I am a supervillain. And you. You could be one of us. Join us, Brawn. We can take over the city together. Then you'd finally be popular. Like you always wanted.
88* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: She was bullied in school relentlessly, was also bullied by her MeanBoss at the Weiner House (and said boss almost fired her for making a snarky comment), and has a boyfriend, Gale, who pressures her into seeking revenge against the city. He treats her as a pawn for this purpose; when she finally gets sick of it and shoots him dead, she is arrested and sentenced to life in prison.

93
94Jeanne's right-hand minion who loves gambling and has gambling motifs. They are the boss of Ravena high. They were once a Weiner House worker named Taylor, but the stresses of their job caused them to snap.
95----
96* AffablyEvil: They are incredibly friendly to Brains and Brawn despite capturing them and trying to stop them from overthrowing Queen Jeanne.
97-->You shall stay here until you become not alive!~ And until that happens, I shall feed you three square meals a day. Freshly made by me. Straight from my kitchen, into your mouths.~ For those of you with allergies please tell me in advance. And I have vegetarian alternatives for my fellow animal lovers in the room. And the soup is self-serve. Don't even THINK of trying to escape! Because I'd miss you!
98* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Apparently they once made a gravestone for themself and buried themself, not realizing graves are for the dead. Also, they once called a meeting to determine which perfume smells the most mysterious. He then leaves a vitally important Super Juice container sitting in their Emergency Bathroom Lair unguarded.
99-->My maid used to tell me I'm not very smart.
100* TheDogBitesBack: Back when they worked in the Weiner House, their MeanBoss would bully them for everything, and the King of the World would antagonize them, getting them suspended. When Blaire, their lover, loses their life savings at the King's Casino and runs away, they snap and murder the King and the manager.
101* TheDragon: Outright refers to themself as "Queen Jeanne's #1 Henchperson".
102* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: In ''Heroes and Villains'', even as a supervillain, they care for their Robot Zombie Maid and are distraught when Brains kills her.
103* FromNobodyToNightmare: As Taylor, they were just a normal fast food worker in a shitty job. Then their lover Blaire lost all their money at the casino, and Taylor lost their job- this, combined with all the stresses, finally made them snap and turn into The Gambler.
104* TheGambler: As they are named. They use a dice hammer, and their doors resemble dominoes.
105* OfficeRomance: Had one with Blaire, their co-worker in the Weiner House. It ended badly when Blaire gambled their life savings to get out of their sucky jobs and lost.
106* PracticallyJoker: They are a MonsterClown clad in green and purple with a theme (in this case, gambling), and are outright called "[[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial definitely not a Joker clone]]" in the description of their spinoff game. In particular, they most closely resemble the [[Film/Joker2019 Arthur Fleck Joker]], as both were once ordinary people struggling in an uncaring society and slowly losing everyone they care about until they snap and violently murder the targets of their hatred and help to usher in mass rioting.
107* SecondaryColorNemesis: His purple and green color scheme is part of his PracticallyJoker shtick (as Jeanne calls him a "cupcake clown looking ass").
108* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: They worked in a dead-end fast-food job, could barely afford the rent, got suspended for standing up to a customer who treated them like shit, watched as their lover Blaire lost their life savings at the casino owned by the same customer who got them fired, and finally snapped when Blaire disappeared.

173
174A patriotic, America-loving supervillain.
175----
176* CaptainPatriotic: A rare supervillain variant, as he acts like the typical freedom-and-justice loving American superhero despite being a member of a LegionOfDoom out to TakeOverTheCity. He is also a parody of one, as his {{Thememobile}}, the Soil Speeder, is a truck with the American flag as coloring, he attacks with living burgers and a gun, and he "Laughs in American" while chasing Brains and Brawn.

201A former hotdog salesman who quit his job. He is infatuated with Jeanne.
202----
203* AndNowYouMustMarryMe: A variant in that he abuses Jeanne, his girlfriend and TheDragon, into marrying him to commemorate their takeover of Ravena City, and the duo must stop the wedding to save Jeanne.
204* BigBad: He manipulated his girlfriend Jeanne into taking over the city in order to get revenge on his abusive father, the mayor.
205* TheCameo: He appears briefly in ''The Gambler'' working as a cashier in the Weiner House.

207* DualBoss: He fights you alongside Jeanne as the FinalBoss.
208* EvilAllAlong: He is a recurring NPC who also serves as the shopkeeper and is in love with Queen Jeanne, but does not seem like an antagonist at first. But the third area reveals that he was the one using Jeanne as a pawn all along.
209* FinalBoss: He and Jeanne fight you as a DualBoss at the end.
210* FreudianExcuse: His father, the mayor, forced him to do back-breaking manual labor and showed no love to him- this is what made him decide to manipulate Jeanne into taking over the city so he could seek revenge. He also, as a result, hates any kind of labor.
211-->Listen. You have NO idea how awful he was to me. HE'S the reason I have CONSTANT back pain. I LITERALLY ALMOST DIED BECAUSE OF ALL THE CRAP HE FORCED ME TO DO TO BECOME "A MAN". If it wasn't for his awful parenting I wouldn't have left and I'd be living a happy life in a happy home but I can't have that. I have to go out of my way to get what I want. You don't know what it's like! I just want him to SUFFER. Just ONCE. Just so HE can see what it's like. To be ME. Is that bad?
212* GuestStarPartyMember: Played with. He offers to join Brains for a short time, and she accepts, but he doesn't even help her in battle- he just clings on top of her and leaves as soon as they are off the bridge where he first joined.
213* KilledOffForReal: Jeanne shoots him dead when he pushes her too far.
214* LazyBum: According to Brawn, the abuse his father heaped onto him, treating him like a child slave, made him despise working.
215-->'''Brawn:''' He hates all kinds of labor. I've talked with him before and he said the only reason he does it is because he'd be broke otherwise.
216* TheManBehindTheWoman: He has been using Jeanne as a PuppetQueen and is the one who told her to take over the city in then first place to get revenge on his dad, the mayor.
217* TroubledAbuser: He was used by his dad as a child slave, forced to do labor. He thus became an unpleasant individual and when he dates Jeanne, he emotionally abuses her by making her dependent on him and yelling at her when she doesn’t do what he wants.
218* UnholyMatrimony: With his girlfriend Jeanne, as both work together to TakeOverTheCity and cement their takeover via a wedding. Though it is abusive on his part and falls apart when he pushes her one too many times.
219* WalkingSpoiler: He seems to just be a hot dog salesman and the salesman character, but is actually the son of the mayor and the real BigBad.
220* {{Yandere}}: He apparently is so infatuated with Jeanne that he makes a room entirely in her image.
221* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: He was treated as a slave by his father and was forced into manual labor so severe that he broke his back. Eventually, he ran away, and was forced to take bad, low-paying jobs like working in the [[BurgerFool Weiner House]]. This left him with a hatred of work and a desire for revenge, leading him to manipulate Jeanne into trying to take over Ravena. Jeanne brings this up in ''[=EGOventure=]''.
222-->'''Ego:''' How do you know who the fuck I am?\
223'''Jeanne:''' Because I knew someone like you. Someone who was so cold and ruthless. Someone who felt so helpless and not in control of their own life. So they took it out on others. They wanted power. They wanted to feel in control of something. And he got what he wanted. But not what he needed.

225
226[[folder:James P. Ravena]]
227-->Haha, my boy! Never shying away from telling the world how WEAK he is.
228
229The mayor of Ravena who was overthrown by Jeanne.
230----
231* AbusiveParents: As Brawn recounts, he "treated his son like a slave, making him do everything he wanted", and excused it by saying he was, in Brawn's own words, "just '[=BuILDinG a HARd WoRKER=]". He even goes so far as to write a book called "I Hate My Son".
232-->This beautiful city will only ever be run by the greatest men! That's why I'm trying to prevent my son from becoming a loser, a loner, a useless selfish boy! If I don't raise him right he will never make anything of himself and he will absolutely NEVER stand up to the task that is running Ravena! He needs to learn discipline!
233* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler:He gets kidnapped by the Creamlins, then tied up and nearly killed by Gale, his son who he treated as a slave. Given this and what a MayorPain he is, it is hard to feel sorry for him.]]
234* GreaterScopeVillain: His abuse of his son, [[spoiler:Gale Ravena]], is what ultimately causes the plot as [[spoiler:Gale becomes the BigBad in search of revenge and manipulates Jeanne into being his puppet]], while his mismanagement of [[WretchedHive Ravena]] indirectly brings about the plot of ''The Gambler'', where [[spoiler:the title character goes nuts after being beat down by society]].
235* HighClassGlass: He wears a monocle on his left eye to show his status as the mayor.
236* MayorPain: He abused his son by treating him as a slave and justified it by saying that MiseryBuildsCharacter. As shown in the demos and ''The Gambler'', the city of Ravena is also a WretchedHive with him in charge, with garbage and vandalism everywhere, rampant crime and violence from supervillains and gangs, a growing homelessness problem, and the local school being a miserable place run by bullies and vandals.
237-->'''Brawn:''' His back broke?? And you act like it's nothing??? You're so terrible! How are you our mayor???!
238* SinisterSchnoz: He has a big pointy nose and is a MayorPain as well as an {{Abusive Parent|s}} to his son.

289
290Jeanne's father who awaits her in his home.
291----
292* AbusiveParents: Subverted. Initially, her journal describes her being abused by a male figure, and Brawn assumes it's her father, but as he clears up, it's actually her boyfriend Gale.
293* GoodParents: In contrast to the duo's initial impression, he loves his daughter and would comfort her whenever she was bullied.
294-->She always told me she was scared of not being good enough. I always comforted her about it. I was always there for her. Well. I did until HE came into her life. [...] Her boyfriend. Her terrible, manipulative boyfriend.

299[[folder:Blaire]]
300-->Tay-tay! Time to wake up!~
301
302Taylor's lover and co-worker in the Weiner House. They are more optimistic than the cynical Taylor.
303----
304* DespairSpeech: After losing their life savings to the World Casino in an ill-fated attempt to win money to get a better job, they run away and give one to Taylor over the phone, explaining how they have given up on life.
305* DrivenToSuicide: Possibly, given that they are last heard giving a DespairSpeech after gambling away their life savings.
306* OfficeRomance: With Taylor, their co-worker in the Weiner House.
307* UncertainDoom: Their last DespairSpeech to Taylor combined with them vanishing afterwards could imply they were DrivenToSuicide, but there is no confirmation either way.

309
310[[folder:Weiner House Manager]]
311-->Remember, you're replaceable. Literally everyone but you can sweep a floor.
312
313The manager of the Weiner House. She is not a nice woman to her employees.

315* AssholeVictim: Gets hammered to death by The Gambler/Taylor, her employee whom she bullied and suspended, in the middle of bullying another employee, the shy Jeanne.
316* KilledOffForReal: Murdered by The Gambler.
317* MeanBoss: She looks down on her employees. When Taylor gets into an altercation with an UnsatisfiableCustomer, she takes his side and suspends Taylor, showing no concern for him. In TheStinger, she berates Jeanne for doing a less-than-perfect job cleaning up the place.
318* SinisterShades: While not ''evil'', she is a MeanBoss and her green shades help make her look cold and unsympathetic. They are actually the same shades Jeanne wears later.
319* SmallRoleBigImpact: She only has two scenes, but those scenes show her to be a MeanBoss who is majorly responsible for Jeanne and The Gambler being DrivenToVillainy.
320* VillainyFreeVillain: Like the King, the Manager doesn't do anything illegal, but is a MeanBoss who mistreats and looks down on her employees.

324-->Don't preach to me, boy. I don't do nothing wrong. All these people make the choice to come here and play.
325
326The greedy owner of the World Grand Casino.
327----
328* AssholeVictim: He is a crooked casino owner who exploits his customers into gambling away their money, taking glee in doing so, and is an UnsatisfiableCustomer who gets Taylor fired. Taylor eventually murders him with a hammer.
329* BigBad: He is the one who gets Taylor fired, beginning their downward spiral into insanity, and worsens it by manipulating Blaire into gambling away their life savings.
330* CutsceneBoss: Unlike his employees who have actual fights, he is killed by The Gambler in a cutscene without putting up a fight.
331* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He may be a crooked casino owner, but he has a big picture of himself and his daughter in his room, so he seems to love her.
332* FatBastard: Is fat and a crooked casino owner.
333* {{Greed}}: He and his employees actively manipulate his customers into gambling away all their money so he can profit.
334* UnsatisfiableCustomer: He yells at Taylor for getting his hot dog order wrong and makes a big scene about it, insulting Taylor and the restaurant workers to the point that Taylor fights with him about it.
335* VillainyFreeVillain: Played with, as he never does anything outright illegal- he is simply a greedy casino owner who has his employees manipulate his customers into gambling away all their money while not caring if someone gambles away their life savings, and gets into a fight with Taylor because his order was wrong and he looks down on lower-class workers.
