The host
Controlly
Voiced by: Anko6theanimator (Episode 1), Alex (Episode 2- present)
A video game controller. Controlly is the host of Brawl of the Objects; he knows how to sound professional, but he’s clearly full of himself. He likes coffee and anything that will make him richer and more famous. He dislikes when his plans don’t go his way.- The Host: He is this to the show.
- I Just Want to Be Special: He's said that he likes anything that would make him more rich and famous.
- Kill It with Water: Subverted, unlike other object show characters like him, since he was able to swim and retrieve Rook's frozen body and come back out alive.
- Downplayed in "The Ever Convenient Objects' Sopping Mall," where he tries jumping into a pool located in the titular mall. And short-circuits. This causes a short power outage in the store. This at least proves that Controlly can die or at least get harmed from water, but in this case he lives albeit sightly blackened.
Contestants

Voiced by: Anko6theanimator
A baguette (a type of French bread). He’s a grumpy and self-driven guy who lies about having a French heritage, as he finds it hilarious that he can say anything about anyone without consequences.

- Gratuitous French: Enough said.
- I Lied: Before he's frozen in "Rookie Mistakes," he reveals that he actually
isn't French. - Immigrant Parents: Even though he speaks Quebecois French, his father Croissant lived in Paris.

Party Hat
Rank: 3rd
Voiced by: Anko6theanimator
A yellow-and-pink cone hat, and the leader of Team Vanilla. He’s a fun-loving party animal who has a constant positive attitude, and while he loves being the center of attention, he will never hesitate to pipe down his antics so he can help his friends when they’re in need. Likes parties, plush toys, and rainbows, dislikes driving.- Ambiguous Gender Identity: There is some evidence suggesting he is transgender of either sex. In the BOTO human lineup, he is the only male sporting eyelashes, and in episode 13, he was called a lady by Pinecone, alongside with Popsicley and Chocolatey, although that could also be attributed to Pinecone being Ambiguously Bi.
- Big Guy, Little Guy: He's the little guy to Boombox's big guy.
- Cloudcuckoolander: He lives in a little world... of HAPPINESS!
- Does Not Drive: He can't drive. This is well-established in "How it All Began."

- Nice Guy: He is this in spades. He genuinely wants to get to know Baguette better, develops a fondness for Big Orange Chicken, and only wants for others to party alongside him.
- Real Men Wear Pink: He has pink stripes on him, and he's a male.
- Vocal Dissonance: Earlier on, he had a quite feminine sounding voice,
causing viewers to mistake him for a girl.
Pear

Voiced by: Anko6theanimator
A pear. She’s somewhat of a stereotypical spoilt brat, and is obsessed with material things to the point where she forgets about her own emotional development. Likes shopping and makeup, dislikes humiliation and having to go outside of her comfort zone.- Flaying Alive: When she gets angry enough, her skin rips off. This does not hurt or kill her, however.
- Lovable Alpha Bitch: Despite being a jerkass, she can be nice when she’s in a good mood, and even has a friendship with Shelly, who is one of the nicer characters.
- Prone to Tears: Has cried twice, first, over thinking that Pizza was being mean, then over her lost stem.
- Valley Girl: Fits this trope to a T.
Pinecone
Rank: 13th
Voiced by: Anko6theanimator
A small pinecone. He is a passionate rapper and chick magnet but is hindered by his minuscule size. Likes rapping and flirting, dislikes being stepped on.- Ambiguously Bi: At the end of the show, where he tries to flirt with Party Hat (Who is Male), as well as Popsicley and Chocolatey (who are both Female)
- The Casanova: Turns out he's this. He uses the golden ticket that was meant to be for Shieldy in the finale to make himself bigger and try to get the girls. That backfired, as none of the females recognized him.
- Lilliputians: He was so small he was at ankle-length with the other characters, but he grows to about the size of the other characters at the end of "How it All Ended."
- Totally Radical: Trying to be cool? That's him!
- The Unintelligible: Due to his size, the other contestants can only hear him in an incredibly high-pitched, squeaky voice that is almost impossible to understand.

Pizza
Rank: 4th

Likes practical jokes and being correct, dislikes singing and having his flaws pointed out.- Animation Anatomy Aging: As mentioned in "How it All Ended," pizzas gain pepperoni when they go through puberty, implying that Pizza didn't have pepperoni when he was younger.
- Carnivore Confusion: He is appalled at the idea of Shieldy's pizza party at the end of "How It All Ended" and doesn't eat his slice when he comes to said party in the credits because he does not like the idea of eating the thing he is.
- Dreadful Musician: As shown in BOTO's Next Star. In fact, he's so terrible that his singing accidentally kills Lava Lamp, one of the judges in the same episode, and immediately got a whopping score of zero in the challenge.
- Every Pizza Is Pepperoni: He is depicted with only cheese and pepperoni on him.
- Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Hotdog.
Popsicley
Rank: 10th
Voiced by: Anko6theanimator

- Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Chocolatey.
- Pink Means Feminine: A pink female popsicle.
Scissors
Rank: 16th (Last Place)
Voiced by: Anko6theanimator
A pair of metal scissors. She uses anger as a coping mechanism to ward others off, as her worst fear is abandonment from the people she feels close to. She likes people making her feel appreciated, she dislikes when people dismiss her for being an irritable girl.- Jerkass: And a major one to boot.
- Took a Level in Kindness: It's subtle but she did show concern towards Rook in episode 12, Rookie Mistakes and sympathy towards Emerald in the finale when the former became unhinged and the latter was left flabbergasted after his ex-wife went off with her new husband
Shieldy
Rank: 1st
Voiced by: Nicolas

While he tends to be childish in nature, his heart is always in the right place, and he will always do everything he can to show others he loves them. Likes cars and making new friends, dislikes getting his hopes up.- The Baby of the Bunch: Is said to be the youngest of all the contestants.
- Big Eater: Shows shades of this as he gets bummed there is no rock candy in the cave in episode 10 and utterly wolfs down his slices of pizza in the finale.
- Cheerful Child: Being the youngest contestant on the show, this is a given.
- The Cutie: Youngest contestant, this is a given.
- Youngest Child Wins: He's the youngest character on the show and, of course, the winner.
Shelly
Rank: 2nd
Voiced by: Anko6theanimator
A light-blue cone shell. While she fears the judgment of others in most situations and is easily spooked, she will not back down when she’s alone and needs to stand up for herself.

A rook chess piece that lives in the Dream World. He was also a contestant in the original medieval Brawl of the Objects, but died during the finale.- Dark and Troubled Past: He's been shown to have this through a Flashback in "Rookie Mistakes," which was triggered when Scissors mentions Brawl of the Objects.
