The Chosen
The Hero of AdventureQuest and only playable character.
- Action Girl: If female.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: Can have pretty much any skin colour. The same goes for hair.
- Ascended to a Higher Plane of Existence: During the Burning Solstice saga they're revealed to be War, one of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse, having unknowingly earned the role when they defeated the previous War years ago in the Destroyer quests. They proceed to fully claim the mantle and power but chooses to relinquish this power and stay mortal at the end of the quest.
- Be Careful What You Wish For: Not quite a wish, but they expected a reward from Safiria (just as every other quest ever) in Safiria's Plea. Her 'reward' was... an endless amount of mooks to fight as a Ninjat.
- Butt-Monkey: At least in some comedic quests.
- The Chosen One: Explicitly stated to be one and referred as such in the more recent quests. Talks with gods regularly and even The'Galin treats The Hero like an equal. Moreover, Seth Cay Dhows says the Hero is "Lorithia and The'Galin's Champion".
- As of the Burning Solstice questline, they've been chosen to become the new War. Though, with the blessing of Lore's pantheon, they decline the role and power.
- Chronic Hero Syndrome
- Easily Forgiven: Averted with Cartwright, as he/she never lets an opportunity get away to remind everyone what he is/has done.
- Fantastic Racism: Against the Drakels at first, thinking they were "only a selfish warlike race".
- Hello, [Insert Name Here]
- Just Ignore It: They invoke it when Dhows taunts everyone with a clock in the sky during the Mostly Harmful war. It does not work.
- Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: An usual occurrence in comedic quests.
- For example, in Jr. Squires of Order, they release an Iron Golem (actually, a magic machine built to contain the spirit of an ancient dark sidhe wizard of unimaginable powers) that almost kills Kalanyr.
- Renn/Zio mention that not finding the Runix Cube is the only thing that could stop Escherion. Guess who bring it directly to him?
- In all the time you spent assembling the Blade of Awe so that you can wield it as a Guardian, have you ever wondered why it was in pieces and scattered all over Lore in the first place? It's turns out that you just reassembled the key to it's former evil wielder Awethur's prison when you and Valencia tried to loot it for the Awe gear. Thankfully, you defeat him and claim the gear after purifying it.

- Half-dragon, a dracomancer who uses their magic to become a dragon-hybrid with greatly increased offensive power
- Obfuscating Stupidity: She/He pretends to be dumb to fool everyone else.
- Reluctant Warrior / Martial Pacifist / Technical Pacifist: "I don't try to start fights unless I have a reason to." Unfortunately, they always give him/her a reason to do so.

Townspeople
Robina the Hood
Robina loves adventure, gold, and fighting monsters. She is often quoted for saying something along the lines of 'Steal from the Rich and give to the Monsters. How else do you think they have so much gold when you defeat them?' She specializes in Ranged weaponry and sells such things to travelers in Yulgar's Inn.
- Captain Ersatz: Of Robin Hood, as her name would suggest. She is a skilled archer who steals from the rich and gives to the poor.
- Gender Bender: She becomes male in the 2010 April Fools' Day event.
- Rebellious Princess: While not stated in-game that she's King Alteon's middle daughter (and as such, princess of the Kingdom of Swordhaven), in both DragonFable and AdventureQuest Worlds it is heavily implied (i.e. completely obvious) that she is. (Even in MechQuest, she is Alteon's daughter!) She doesn't want her father to know, though.
Aria
Aria met the Frogzard Hunter a very long time ago, and he taught her how to raise and train animals. She runs a pet shop in the town of Battleon, selling pets and pet-related things. She can also rename your pet.
- Missing Mom: As revealed in both DragonFable and AdventureQuest Worlds, Yulgar is her father and Grams, her paternal grandmother (maternal in DragonFable), but her mother's identity and fate has never been mentioned yet. Although a quest in DragonFable does reveal who she was.
Aquella
A water elf who possesses psychic powers.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: Has teal skin.
- Gender Bender: She becomes male in the 2010 April Fools' Day event.
- It's All My Fault: Blames herself for what her brother does to Lolosia.
- Steven Ulysses Perhero: Aquella, basically Aqua a.k.a water, meaning her Making a Splash powers + the feminine ending, -Ella.
- Pointy Ears: Well, yeah. She is an elf.
Hans Olo
Hans is Yulgar's apprentice, as well as Yulgar's cousin's roommate's nephew. He ran the inn while Yulgar was off fighting the Devourer.
He also has a crush on Aria, which has led him through several misadventures as he tries to impress her.
Lavistria
A War Maiden selected by the Elves to lead the Union. Daughter of the House of Embers.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: Has lavender skin.
Twilly
Twilly is a Moglin who has been around Battleon for a long time, he's quite a good healer and he knows quite a bit and is willing to share his knowledge with you.
Twig
Twig was formerly Smbdoll's personal Moglin. His owner left him out in the Guardian Tower for too long, though. Twig speaks wif a wisp and weally, weally wikes fwish and ice cweam!
- A Day in the Limelight: The Mogbuster quests has a focus on him being a willing volunteer and test dummy.
- Big Eater: Of ice cweam and fwish.
- Speech Impediment: He has a very severe lisp.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Fwish and ice cweam.
Sage Uldor
A blind sage, Sage Uldor hangs around the Inn. He's also a pretty competent wizard.
His powers allow him to knows a few things others don't. He helps in the Drakel war, explaining the situation and directing the players towards Dewlok in Granemor. During this war, he saved the Combat Practice Trainer's life. Because of this, the Trainer has his current job and Uldor has a back door into the Drakel Black Market.
Also, he was instrumental in discovering the "shadow master" during the Devourer Saga's Epic Quest.
- Badass Boast: "I may be blind, but I see all!"
- Body Horror: In Mogloween '08, a gween attaches itself to Uldor's face, 'infecting' him, and his skin begins to bubble. Almost immediately, he feels as if his skin was crawling; the bubbles suddenly burst to reveal several small black creatures, and he collapses to the ground.
- Cryptic Conversation: For some reason, it's best if the Hero doesn't actually know what he'll encounter next, since it may affect the outcome. Whatever that means.
- Disability Superpower: He was born blind, but was able from the beginning to see into the future of those near him. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean he can predict everything and he does need to be escorted whenever he goes into the wild.
- Not So Omniscient After All: Justified. In Epic Quest 1, both and the Hero are attacked and he's struck by a blast from behind, even though he can see the future. After the Hero defeats the monster, he calls Uldor out on why he hadn't predicted that; then, he reveals that both he and Warlic are suspicious of a mysterious force neither of them can detect, which is able to partially control the Ethereal Realm so he can't sense its actions.
- Older Than They Look: According to Robina, he's "old and frail", but he doesn't look as such.
- Strong Family Resemblance: Averted. He and his daughter look nothing alike.
- Superpowerful Genetics: His daughter, Dundela, inherited a small portions of his powers.
- Throwing Off the Disability: In the past, Lucretia's father attempted time and again to cure his blindness, but since it's magical in nature, their natural potions would never work.

Yulgar is a middle aged man, who is believed to be a warrior in his younger days. His favorite posession is his old and rusty axe named Betsy. He is renowned for having the only weapon shop in Battleon, and millions flock to his inn to get their hands on the newest equipment.
