Introduced in Episode 3
Q 84
The main character of Childhood’s End.
- Alpha Bitch: Of the passive aggressive variety. Complete with her very own girl posse.
- Body Backup Drive: She gets a new body every time she dies, so she kills herself when she's hurt to avoid having to deal with injury.
- Even after she uses Mother's wish and dies for good, Charles revives her in a defective vessel.note
- Body Horror: As she dies, her body begins to mutate. After she dies, her body decomposes.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Knows that she is in a video game, and talks directly to the player.
- Came Back Wrong: Played for laughs. The body that she is ressurected in is defective. We know that her voice sounds different, but not much else.
- Cute and Psycho: She's very cute and very unstable.
- Dark Action Girl: Kills anyone who's a threat to her, and her show Execution Hour kills people who don't really deserve it in horrible ways.
- Deadpan Snarker: She isn't as nice as the Charlotte from the first two games.
- Death Is Cheap: Cannot die until her story ends.
- Death Seeker: Not being able to die has a negative effect on her sanity. After using Mother's wish and dying for real, Charles resurrects her, which she is not happy about.
- Q84: I want to die! God, I want to die!
- Died in Your Arms Tonight: After she uses the power granted by mother to fulfill her wish, she dies in Charles’ arms. Subverted when she is revived in a defective vessel.
- Driven to Suicide: Since she comes back to life upon dying, whenever she gets injured, she kills herself.
- Ethereal White Dress: Utterly obsessed with the colour white, and tries to be as white as possible. Constantly dying and coming back to life.
- Go Mad from the Revelation: How she reacts to finding out the true nature of the house.
- Learning she cannot die until her story ends makes things worse.
- Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Thanks to Scarlett Eyler.
- She later returns the favour and then puts Scarlett through Execution Hour.
- Jade-Colored Glasses: Has these on when the games starts.
- No Body Left Behind: After using Mother's wish, she dies, with her body mutating as she dies, and then decomposes to nothing once she is dead.
- Resurrective Immortality: If she dies before her story ends, she comes back to life in a new body.
- She abuses this by killing herself whenever she gets injured.
- Smug Snake: She is this.
- Take That, Audience!: Frequently expresses vitriol towards the audience, especially towards those who have not purchased the game. She believes anyone streaming the game (as opposed to playing it) isn't deserving of being called her Puppeteer.
- ...or so it seems, until she immediately follows that statement by saying she doesn't really care about that stuff.
- The Dreaded: Uses White Society as a means to scare anyone who would half her.
- Unwanted Revival: Q84 is very upset to find herself alive again.
- Troll: Does a lot to torment the tenants of the house.
V 19
The antagonist of Childhood's End.
- Body Horror: As well as the changes that usually come with merging with an Oracle, she has multiple yellow orbs on her face.
- Buxom Beauty Standard: According to
etherane in an University AU, V19 would model for fine arts students and gets offers to appear in commercials for the most unsellable products, because she is so well-endowed. - Dark Action Girl: Kills the entire school to get Scarlett Eyler to chase her.
- Death Seeker: When Scarlett Eyler finally attacks her, she does nothing to resist.
- Extra Eyes: Has eyes on the appendages that kill everyone at school. She doesn't have a Third Eye on her forehead however.
- Facial Horror: Has multiple yellow orbs on her face.
- Fan Disservice: Normally the Oracle mutations appear from the back, so apart from a Third Eye the person looks the same to an extent. However V19 has traded her Third Eye for some yellow orbs on her face.
- Form-Fitting Wardrobe: Her clothing actually covers a lot of her body, but the fact you are still easily able to see her boobs is one reason she still counts as Ms. Fanservice.
- Go Mad from the Revelation: She kills everyone at School except Scarlett Eyler.
- Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: When we first see her, she has done this to countless students.
- Jade-Colored Glasses: Gained these at some unknown point before we first see her.
- Ms. Fanservice: Subverted. She should be this, but Facial Horror gets in the way, making her a Butter Face.
- Person of Mass Destruction: Uses her Oracle powers to wipe out the population of the school, with the exception of Scarlett Eyler.
- Sexy Sweater Girl: Wears a tight black one with a small white V at the front, which really shows off her big boobs and makes the blood spattered on it hard to see.
- Supernatural Gold Eyes: Due to having absorbed the Oracle, her eyes are yellow.
Charles Eyler
A sad boy who deserved better.
This world's God, as well as one of the few true realm characters.- The Ace: Wants to be this. Scarlett Eyler punishes him when he makes mistakes.
- Deity of Human Origin: After his death, a new universe is born from his mind and soul. He effectively becomes the god, albeit an essentially powerless one.
- Driven to Suicide: Charles ends his life by invoking the Suicide by Sea trope, having given up after Vincent's suicide and Anri's moving away.
- In the Happy End, he reveals he tried to kill himself while inside the House, but was unable to die.
- Facial Horror: In the true realm, this happens to other people's faces as his Sanity Slippage worsens.
- Fake Relationship: He and Anri dated for the sake of convenience and conforming to societal norms.
- The Maker: He is this to the world of Hello Charlotte.
- Plot-Triggering Death: His death creates the false realm.
- Sanity Slippage: Made explicitly clear in Childhood’s End.
- Sanity Strengthening: Seems to happen to him after his suicide.
- Tragic Bromance: With Vincent.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: With Q84. Although, he is oblivious to the vitriol, acting very friendly and lightheartedly with Charlotte.
Henrietta Warhol (Anri) True Realm
- Fake Relationship: She and Charles dated for the sake of convenience and social status boost.
- It Meant Something to Me: Her relationship with Charles fits this trope.
Vincent Wordsworth / C
Charles’ online friend.
- Driven to Suicide: When Charles actually met him, he killed himself, causing Charles to realize how little he knew about him.
- This has an effect to the Vincents inside the house, as they are basically one dimensional characters who goal is to commit suicide, which is lampshaded by the Umbrella Man, who calls the "hopelessly suicidal".
- Small Role, Big Impact: The real Vincent is only seen once, but has a major impact on Charles.
- Not-So-Small Role: Most of his interactions with Charles where online.
- Tragic Bromance: With Charles.
- We Hardly Knew Ye: Little is known about him. Charles lampshades this, admitting he didn’t know him very well.
- Wordsworth, the last name Charles gives Vincent, is just something he made up. In actuality, he never even knew Vincent’s last name.
