The Courage series tend to not have many Sympathetic characters except for Muriel and Courage himself (And some minor monsters that have a sad backstory). Most characters are either major Jerkasses, legitimately scary, or just rather stupid.
Main CharactersCourage Serves as the titular character who is a pink and black spotted dog (of no known specific breed) who saves his owners Muriel and Eustace from all the creatures. No matter if they're Nightmare Fuel, Uncanny Valley, or just plain weird.
Muriel Bagge A sweet old lady of Scottish descent who found Courage abandoned by an alley and took him home. She is constantly in danger from the things that come to Nowhere but she always smiles at some point during the episode. And she loves Eustace despite his Jerkass personality. She also loves using vinegar in all of her cooking, and in an early episode picked up playing the sitar and also has a fondness for tea.
Eustace Bagge A self-proclaimed farmer that tends to be grumpy and isn't really a nice guy to anyone. He thinks he can fix anything and grow anything but this is never the case. He also has a greed for money. Although early on with no backstory whatsoever he seems to deserve what happens to him in each of the episodes when you learn he didn't have that great of a childhood with a non-loving mom and a always better Big Brother he turns into more a Jerkass Woobie and depending who you are you may actually feel sorry for the guy.
Minor Recurring CharactersThe Computer A Jerkass helper who Courage commonly goes to for advice on stopping the Big Bad of the episode. His advice for the most part works well, but his insults and sarcastic vibes gets contempt from Courage.
Di Lung A guy of implied Chinese descent that makes small cameos in episodes where he almost runs into Courage (usually in his car) and says his catchphrase.
Dr. Vindaloo
Eustace's Mother Rather equally a Jerkass to her son as he is to Courage, she insults Eustace at every oppurtunity and as a contrast to her son she is nice to Courage. Occasionally she is the antagonist of a few episodes especially when it's something about helping with a company that helps with wigs.
Charlie The Mouse A large delivery mouse who is apparently friends with Courage.
Shirley the Medium A Wizard/Gypsy chihuahua that offers help or sells magical objects at her trailer. She is able to place curses on those who cross her (Usually Eustace) and Courage has to go find her in order to reverse them.

Major/Recurring VillainsThe Chicken from Outer Space The very first monster to disturb the Main Characters house. In the pilot, he harasses the chickens out in their henhouse and he is thwarted after he accidentally shoots himself Via a mirror from Courage. He would later return albeit as a cooked chicken in a later episode where he looks for a new head. It is revealed later he had a wife and a kid with 3 heads.
Katz A tall, skinny Anthromorphic cat that is in many episode implied to have several victims like in the motel and his island. He seems to have great skill at games such as Handball, and an expert at staring contests. He is probably the first villian to appear that can be Nightmare Fuel inducing considering his debut is the first episode after the Chicken from Outer Space pilot kinda leaves it open to what the show will get through from the start. He is also the most recurring villain on the show, appearing in a total of five episodes.
Le Quack A French duck that disguises himself as many jobs but is actually a thief that steals riches from his victims. After his debut his plans are more towards getting revenge on Courage while at the same time trying to steal stuff. He always seems to escape capture every time, and repeats "They have not seen the last of...Le Quack".
Benton Tarentella An evil zombie director who puts his "actors" in a position where they'll listen to everything he says where they can be Killed Off for Real on camera or torture themselves for humor on a live TV show.
The Snowman A snowman who dreads the disapperence of his snowman friends and the easily meltable substance they're made out of. He tries to avoid ever melting by extracting the Anti-Melting gene of humans in order to maintain himself as it gets warmer where he lives. He's the Last of His Kind, as all the other Snowmen melted, until Courage repairs the hole in the Ozone Layer, reviving the others and saving his home. Is also one of the few recurring foes to find redemption.
Three Government Ninjas
Minor Villains/Antagonists and Other One-Shot CharactersCajun Fox A fox very reminiscent of a certain Looney Tunes character. Only the fact that he's a fox, has shades, and actually would of gotten his prize if it weren't for a slapstick chase with a certain cowardly dog.

Freaky Fred A barber that is Muriel's cousin. At first glance, he just seems to be a crazy, creepy barber. But deep down he's much worse then that. He speaks in his mind and speaks normally in rhymes, but he has basically an obsession And possibly a fetish for cutting every single hair off someone. When he cuts Courage's hair he doesn't stop until just the hair on Courage's tail remains.Currently serves as the image for the series' Nightmare Fuel page.
Weremole A creature that moves in a similar to Tremors and mainly preys on rabbits. But if it bites a human or perhaps other creatures that survive it's bite into a weremole themselves. The only cure to a bite such as that is to get a hair off the original weremole and get it into the affected person's mouth. Presuming you can get lucky enough to get either the Weremole or the victim without getting bitten yourself.Duck Brothers 2 Turns out there is 3 brother ducks that come to Nowhere. They are on a mission to find their 3rd brother. One of the 2 tends to lay eggs, the other gets annoyed by this.

Evil Veterinarian
"Perfect" Teacher
One-Scene Characters/One-Shot Minor CharactersViolin Girl Nothing is much known about the character itself, but it's one off appearance in "Big Stinkin' City" is one of those sights a Courage fan never forgets. From the back it looks like a normal girl playing Violin (Though even this is considered Uncanny Valley considering everything else around is animated). But when it turns around it has a scary looking claymation face that brings the Uncanny Valley Up to Eleven as there's realistic looks, animated background, and claymation all in one spot. Though it seems that the girl's face is not always like that, as she appears normal on a television that Eustace is watching later in the episode.
Lint Lady An insane, tiny, old lady with an obsession with lint. Doc Gerbil preformend an expearement on her that gave her plungers for arms and legs, but she is still able to grab stuff using the suction.

Perfect Trumpet Thingy A blue... thing that appears in the first of Courage's nightmares in "Perfect". Probably one of the series' scariest things, if not the scariest, joining the ranks of King Ramses and the Harvest Moon Spirit in terms of CGI abominations. It appears to be a warped trumpet with a horrible human face stuck on it, or possibly a deformed fetus with a horrible human face stuck on it.Currently serves as the image for the series' Nightmare Fuel page.
