!Juliet Starling
!!Voiced by: YoukoHikasa (JP - XBox360), EriKitamura (JP - PS3), TaraStrong (EN)
Our protagonist, a cheerleader from San Romero High School who doubles as a professional zombie hunter. In the process, she [[FunPersonified embodies everything fun]] about TheDitz and TheTease. Juliet wakes up on her 18th birthday to find her school overrun with zombies. With her chainsaw, the support of her zombie-hunting family and the still-living severed head of her boyfriend Nick, she sets out to stop the zombie apocalypse from totally ruining her birthday.
----
* ActionGirl
* ALoveToDismember: With Nick's head, the twist being that he's still alive.
* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: Right before slicing Nick's head off, [[spoiler:and again before his HeroicSacrifice to defeat Killabilly]].
* {{Badass}}
** BadassAdorable
* BareYourMidriff
* {{BFG}}: "Chainsaw Blaster!"
* BuffySpeak: "Wow. Dumbest, most explodiest birthday cake ever!" Rather fitting, considering the many similarities between Juliet and [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Buffy]]. Career-wise, that is.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Her inane babbling in no way diminishes her zombie hunting prowess.
* CallingYourAttacks: "Chainsaw Blaster!" "Chainsaw Dash!"
* ChainsawGood
* CloudCuckoolander
* DanceBattler: She employs her cheerleading skills in her zombie massacres.
* DangerouslyShortSkirt: Justified, more or less, since she's fighting in a cheerleader outfit.
* DeadpanSnarker
* TheDitz
** GeniusDitz: She's knowledgeable in all things zombie-related and is an accomplished necromancer, and is highly adaptable to extreme environments[[hottip:*:She also has a 3.4 GPA, which is higher than might be expected [[RealityEnsues but not that impressive on a national scale]]. She's also, well, a ditz.
* GenkiGirl
* GirlishPigtails
* GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals: She has a favorite stuffed toy rabbit, which she is seen cuddling in the intro. One of her extra costumes is modeled after the same rabbit.
* GoofyPrintUnderwear: She tells Nick that she is wearing her special zombie-hunting underwear, which, according to her training, is cotton panties with teddy bears or hearts on them.
* [[spoiler:HeroicBSOD]]: [[spoiler:She becomes absolutely crushed when she learns that she must use Nick as a bomb to destroy Killabilly. In addition, she previously underwent another BSOD when her father made a HeroicSacrifice. ([[DisneyDeath He turns out to be okay]].)]]
* HiddenDepths: She may think it's totally cool that she has a severed head for a boyfriend, but if her DreamSequence at the start of Stage 3 is to be believed, she fears that he'd rather become a zombie than continue living as just a head.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: Towards Nick. She's happy that he's not dead and is quick to proclaim her love for him, but never gets it through to her head that he has plenty of good reasons to feel pretty miserable.
** [[spoiler:Towards Swan before she started going out with Nick. [[ButForMeItWasTuesday She hardly even remembers doing anything bad to Swan that prompted him to start the]] ZombieApocalypse. It is even suggested that they had never ''spoken'' to each other.]]
* JigglePhysics
* MartialArtsAndCrafts: Juliet utilizes her cheerleading chops as a branching series of quick, light, set-up {{combo}}s.
* MsFanservice
* MiniDressOfPower: She usually fights in her cheerleader uniform.
* [[spoiler:NiceJobBreakingItHero]]: [[spoiler:Killing all five Dark Purveyors only ended up completing Swan's ritual and summoning Killabilly.]]
** [[spoiler:MortonsFork: Although it's pretty clear that if she doesn't do anything, the damage the Purveyors could inflict would be bad, possibly just as bad as the summoned Killabilly, leaving her no choice in the matter.]]
* NightmareFetishist
* [[OneManArmy One Woman Army]]
* TheOtherDarrin: In the Japanese version, where she's voiced by a different voice actress depending on platform: YoukoHikasa in the XBox360 version, and EriKitamura in the PS3 version.
* PluckyGirl
* ThePollyanna: Manages to wear a smile even when slaughtering zombies.
* SpoiledSweet
* StrangeGirl: Which she's hidden under a veneer of LovableAlphaBitch-ery.
* {{Stripperific}}: Her normal and alternate cheerleader outfits are pretty skimpy. Then there is the time you can have Juliet tear through the walking undead wearing naught but a bikini, one of them a seashell bikini.
* SweetTooth: For lollipops, which also restore her health.
* SwissArmyWeapon: It's a chainsaw! It's a cell phone! It's a grenade launcher, self-propelled rocket engine, or pair of pom-poms!
* TheTease: Either because of or resulting in the ThirdPersonSeductress.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Lollipops.
* [[spoiler:UnwittingPawn: Swan even calls her a "pawn" in his plan.]]
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Can use wrestling moves like takedowns and hurricanranas.
* ZettaiRyouki: Juliet's got to be rocking at least a type A between the miniskirt and leggings.

!Nick Carlyle
!!Voiced by: KenichiSuzumura (JP), Michael Rosenbaum (EN)
Juliet's boyfriend. 18 years old. After he gets bitten by a zombie, Juliet decapitates him in a desperate attempt to keep him from turning. His still-living head is kept on Juliet's person to give her emotional support whenever he's not lamenting his current situation. He can also take control of headless zombies for a short while thanks to Juliet's magic.
----
* ADateWithRosiePalms: Apparently one of his hobbies. [[{{Irony}} It's no longer an issue once the game starts.]]
* AudienceSurrogate
* [[spoiler:BackFromTheDead: His reward for making a HeroicSacrifice to save the world, in addition to getting back a body, even if it ''is'' Morikawa's body.]]
* BookDumb: He's pretty sharp, all things considered, but his grades kind of suck[[hottip:*:For the record, his GPA is a 2.7. Juliet has a ''3.4'']].
* ButtMonkey
* DeadpanSnarker
** DisabledSnarker: Quite a few of his quips are at his own expense.
* DeathSeeker: He openly requests Cordelia to put a bullet in his head at one point during Stage 5.
* DespairEventHorizon: During Stage 5. He snaps out of it eventually.
* FateWorseThanDeath: He certainly regards his predicament as this.
* GreenEyedMonster: He expresses jealousy towards zombies on occasion:
--> That zombie just looked at your butt! I ''saw'' it!
* [[spoiler:HeroicSacrifice: He allows his head to be attached to Swan's decapitated body to stop Killabilly's heart and destroy him.]]
* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: Says this in verbatim at the start of Stage 5 once the pressure of losing his body starts to get to him.

* MagicKnight: Whenever Juliet slaps him onto a zombie body, he's both really strong and uses really powerful magic.
* MetaGuy
* OnlySaneMan
** GivingUpOnLogic: By the time they get to Lewis, Nick has simply stopped caring about all the weirdness he's seen.
--->"Sure. Giant robot elephant. Doesn't even faze me anymore."

* WhatTheHellHero: Often calls out Juliet during Stage 5 for not respecting his wishes and treating him like an accessory.
