Dave

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/olddav.png
Welcome to my school! People don't visit me often, so I'm glad you're here!
If I catch you, I will spank your butt!
The main character of the mod, and the replacement for Baldi himself. Don't mind his disability, he can get around himself.
  • Berserk Button:
    • Much like the original Baldi, he hates when you answer his questions wrong.
    • In Dave's House, this is provoked when he finds out Tristan has been stealing the birthday presents.
    • In Dave's Dream, he's not too happy once you start roaming in his dreamscape.
  • Damage-Proof Vehicle: While certainly useful for getting him around, both Dave's House and DFAC Remastered show that his wheelchair is not able to block off any tampering.
    • In Dave's House, using a butter knife on Dave will damage some wires on his wheelchair and force him to temporarily stop to fix it.
    • In DFAC Remastered, if he collides with you while you have a virus-holding USB in your inventory, instead of causing a One-Hit Kill, the USB will cause the wheelchair to become non-functional, allowing you to get ahead of Dave a bit.
  • Disability Superpower: It might not seem like it at a glance, but Dave is capable of moving at pretty high speeds in a wheelchair!
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite being the main antagonist of his games, he's shown to love Tristan dearly and went to great lengths to prepare for his birthday. He also restrains himself from killing his son in the secret boss fight of Dave's House, only demanding that he gives back the stolen presents if he loses the fight.
  • Evil Cripple: He's a dangerous antagonist who is more than willing to Over your Game if you get one math problem wrong and his legs are broken.
  • Evil Sounds Deep: Dave gets this a couple of times.
    • In Dave's House, he has a deep and echo-y voice when fighting Tristan in his boss fight, and it gets especially distorted during the second phase.
    • In Dave's Fun Algebra Class Remastered, he gets this gradually once he reveals that letting you out the nearest exit was a ploy.
    "Hang on. Did you think I would actually let you leave that easily? Let's see if you can get to all four exits before I catch you! Hahahahahahaha!"
  • Graceful Loser: At least in the normal modes of Dave's House, Dave isn't too upset about Tristan stealing the presents and escaping, offering for him to come back whenever. He even outright praises Tristan if he wins the Timed Mode, seeing as how he took all the gifts and escaped in record time. That said, he loses it once he's finally defeated in the secret boss fight.
    "Amazing job! You may have stolen all the gifts I got you, but you did it in record time!"
  • Powered Armor: DFAC 2 and DFAC Remastered's Future Mode give him this, with a pair of high-tech goggles, to fit the overall futuristic theme of the setting.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Dave is shown to really like pizza in Dave's Dream, where he'll take some from you if you have it in your inventory instead of killing you.
    "Wow! Thanks for that pizza!"

Garrett

Thirsty...
The replacement for the Bully in Dave's Fun Algebra Class.

Spike

I sure am thirsty!
The new replacement for the Bully in Dave's Fun Algebra Class Remastered.
  • Captain Obvious: He has a hologram next to him at all times, which says "OH MY GOD! IT'S SPIKE!".
  • Cool Shades: Spike wears a pair of these whenever he's seen.
  • Lean and Mean: Spike is a lean guy, and he's the newer replacement for It's a Bully.
  • Spiky Hair: A key accent to his design.

Green Alien Monitor

I hope this teaches you not to do that again.
Don't even try to leave. I have my eyes on you.
A very appropriately named alien that replaces the Principal in Dave's Fun Algebra Class.
  • Anti-Villain: Like Principal of the Thing himself, the Green Alien Monitor is simply a Punch-Clock Villain who sends troublemakers to short detentions.
  • Body Horror: Due to a Magic Wand error from Baldi's Basics, parts of the Monitor's leg are ripped apart and disintegrated, leaving chunks of his leg and his feet floating separate from his body.
  • Child Hater: Implied from one of his quotes following sending the player to detention in DFAC Remastered.
    "Kids these days can't follow the rules at all."
  • Little Green Men: Downplayed; he certainly fits the green alien side of the trope, but he's about as tall as a normal person.
  • Palette Swap: A green recolor of the Principal of the Thing.

Diamond Man

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/die_1.png
OK UH YOU THINK IM TOO SHINY FOR YOU, WELL IM GOING TO GET YOU NOW, AAAAA!
An easily-angered man of diamond that replaces Arts and Crafters in Dave's Fun Algebra Class.

Playrobot

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/playbot_9.png
Does anyone want to exercise with me?
A small robot made to play with children ages 7-10, the replacement for Playtime in Dave's Fun Algebra Class. Another model of it also appears in Dave's House, dubbed "Playrobot 3.0", and a version in-between those is "Playrobot 2.0", seen in Dave's Dream.
  • Expy Coexistence: Its poster mentions it being based on Playtime. Playrobot 2.0 is even near-perfectly built after Playtime herself, with a gentle female voice to boot.
  • Logical Weakness: All versions of Playrobot are susceptible to malfunctioning if a virus gets into their hardware, which is exploitable by using a USB with a virus inside on them.
  • Robot Buddy: Was designed to play with children.

Gotta Sleep

LOOKS LIKE IT'S SLEEPING TIME! GOTTA SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP!
The replacement for Gotta Sweep in this mod who has an obsession with brushing people around and putting them to sleep.
  • Large Ham: Its quotes are, of course, of this sort, like its character of origin.

Future Mode

MONOTOR-O

The replacement for the Principal in DFAC 2 and DFAC Remastered's Future Mode, this robot roams the halls of Dave's futuristic school and punishes rule-breakers accordingly.
  • Disproportionate Retribution: Run around in the building or break any other rule (like firing lasers at people)? Have fun spending a few years in MONOTOR-O's penitentary.note 
  • Job-Stealing Robot: It's implied this robot usurped the job from Green Alien Monitor in the Time Skip between the games/modes.

Smart Scientist


Silver Man


Robot Garrett Thing


    Main Cast (introduced in Dave's House) 

Tristan

Tristan is Dave's son, and the main protagonist of Dave's House.
  • Ascended Extra: While simply a harmless character in DFAC 2, Tristan became the star of the show during Dave's House.
  • Happily Adopted: Tristan was adopted by Dave at some point, and the father and son generally get along well, save for when Tristan does misconduct like stealing presents and hijacking his dad's wheelchair to avoid punishment.
  • Kid Hero: Tristan is the lead protagonist of Dave's House, and while he lacks superpowers, he's still able to outwit his father with a manner of tricks like a Pie in the Face. He even overpowers him armed only with a laser blaster and his mobility in the secret boss fight, and even overpowers and baits Cell into getting outright erased in the secret Cell Mode, only being able to stun the figure.

Item Planet

Hey there, kid. Do you want a free item?
Item Planet is one of the characters in Dave's House, and the stand-in for It's A Bully here.
  • Exactly What It Says on the Tin: It's a small, sentient planet that fits in a house, and it gives out free items. What more needs to be said?
  • Token Good Teammate: Amongst the characters in Dave's House, Item Planet is the only one not actively trying to hinder or harm Tristan, instead offering out free items to him. However, he might take an item away instead, but this is only by accident.

Ruby Man

Ruby Man, identical to Diamond Man, is a stand-in for Arts & Crafters and one of the characters in Dave's House.

    Main Cast (introduced in Dave's Dream) 

Gold Man

The replacement for Arts & Crafters in Dave's Dream, but unlike his other counterparts, he'll only attack AFTER all the papers are acquired.
  • Lean and Mean: Like his other counterparts, Gold Man is a lean stick figure, and will attack if you look at him with all the papers.

Mine Monsters

    Mine Monsters (UNMARKED SPOILERS) 
The Mine Monsters are a trio of enemies only present in the secret Mines map in DFAC Remastered, and are the most prominent threat throughout the Brutal Bonus Level.

Error/Cell

Good job, you beat the game! Um, now, why don't you try this? Uh, do the math problems, but get all of them wrong. It'll be so funny, you'll make him so mad, but I want you to try it. It's worth beating. Have fun!
A black stick figure with red eyes that resides in Dave's office.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: He may be jet black with red facial features, but he means no harm. However, later incarnations of him can get VERY malicious if pushed.
  • It Amused Me: Cell's motive for getting you to get every answer wrong in DFAC Remastered is because he believes Dave's resulting temper will be so funny to behold.
  • Sensory Abuse: His voice comes from an incredibly low-quality microphone, making him hard to hear over the garble.
  • Was Once a Man: As he explains in the secret ending to DFAC Remastered's normal mode, he was originally a student in Dave's school, but some kind of bug in the code caused him to be turned into the stick figure he is now.
