Hexside School of Magic and Demonics

In General

Adaptation Expansion: The school is featured more prominently, so its staff, students and classes are given more depth.
Ascended Extra Everyone associated with the school has bigger roles to play, especially during the "Glandus War" arc.
Badass Teacher: A lot of them get their chances to demonstrate themselves as one, with the "Glandus War" arc really showing what half of them can do.
Dirty Coward: During the "Glandus War" Arc, all the seniors graduate early and join covens or go vacationing to Palm Stings just to avoid participating in the school war.
Named by the Adaptation: All the teachers and students who appear that were unnamed in the show get names here, and some named characters are given last names.
Save Our Students: Thanks to Anu Bist encouraging the troublemakers' passions and Ms. Traveler's efforts to make bullying non-existent, the school improves vastly in terms of students' grades and behavior.

Staff

Current

Principal Hieronymus Bump

The principal of Hexside, whose damaged eyesight is countered with the help of his Palisman, Frewin.

Career-Ending Injury: Subverted. Principal Bump got his back broken by Coach Grease during the Glandus War and was taken to the Healing Coven to recover and get a hip replacement. This causes him to consider retiring but because of Faust taking control of the school in his absence, Bump challenges him to a duel at the IFWOT and wins, reclaiming his position.

Kitsuni

A golden fox woman and trickster demon who joined the Order due to changing times. In Book 2, she replaced Anu Bist as the teacher of the Detention track and later becomes the head of security.

Big Sister Instinct: She can be protective of her little sister Mai.
Broken Pedestal: Because Kitsuni has been absent from several instances where Luz and her friends could have used her help (the school war, Meteora's assasination attempt, and Luz's closest companions and Eve getting stuck on Earth), Amity stopped believing that she and her colleagues in the Order could be relied on for assistance.
Demonic Possession: To avoid dying after the Ninja Supreme's attempt on her life, Kitsuni has to resort to possessing Todd Tweed to save herself.
Disney Death: Played With. The Ninja Supreme tries to murder her so she can't interfere with the Alchemist's plans but he only succeeds in destroying her body, not her soul.
Playing with Fire: She can manipulate blue fire as seen in "Chapter 45: Stranger Danger".
Sharing a Body: As of "The Alchemist's Mutant Mayhem", she is sharing Todd's body in order to live.
Ship Tease: She gets a decent amount with Anu Bist, given how they shared a dance in her first appearance and she met with him right after he healed from his injuries sustained from fighting Belos.
Split-Personality Makeover: Due to possessing Todd's body, Kitsuni has a new appearance when she's in control; now, she has orange fur, blue eyes, long white hair, her nine tails are out, she wears a kimono and gauntlets, and she has a golden flame atop her head.
Technicolor Fire: Kitsuni's flames are so intense, they glow blue.

Professor Snope

Professor Sheldon Snope

The Abomination track's Transgender teacher who replaces Professor Blanc for the new semester. He's often seen sleeping and is carried by his own Abomination everywhere.

Arch-Enemy: He personally sees the Inner Demon as his and spent several years trying to hunt him down within the Mindscape.
Dark and Troubled Past: 25 years ago, he was part of a group who attempted to exorcise the Inner Demon from the Forest of Fear. Sadly, they failed and he was the only one who escaped before he was turned into a tree. He's since had to live with the guilt but refuses to let the Inner Demon win.
Does This Remind You of Anything?: His being asleep almost constantly brings to mind the neurological disorder, Narcolepsy, which is caused by irregular sleep cycles.
Expy: His name and tone of voice brings to mind Severus Snape.
Heroic Vow: He's made it his mission to defeat the Inner Demon and avenge his friends, while also protecting his students from him.
Maker of Monsters: As the teacher of the abomination track, of course he's this.

Julia Traveler

Julia Traveler/Mary Poppins/Rosie

Hexside's new guidance counselor. She's a very strict woman with no tolerance for bullying who is determined to change the school for the better.

Canon Character All Along: She's eventually revealed to be Mary Poppins near the end of Book 1. Midway through Book 2, she's also shown to be Rosie.
Composite Character: Not only is she Mary Poppins, but the "Underworld" arc shows that she's also Rosie of Hazbin Hotel.
Connected All Along: "Chapter 107: Resolutions" shows that because she's Rosie, she's an old friend of Alastor and asked him to watch over Luz and Amity while they were in Hell.
Dissonant Serenity: No matter the situation, she always remains calm and never reacts.
Expy: Of Mary Poppins, sporting a matching wardrobe, hairstyle, attitude on etiquette and even using an umbrella. It later turns out she was Mary Poppins in the past.
Familiar: Her palisman is a parrot named Tiki.
Heavenly Blue: She has blue eyes, wears a blue dress and lipstick, and she's implied to have magic more powerful than any witch.
Heroic Neutral: Julia avoids getting involved in everyone's problems too much, not wanting to risk foiling their growth and independence.
Horrifying the Horror: Not only does she scare Luz, Boscha and even Eda, she also seems to be considered terrifying by Trickster Demons, as demonstrated by Kitsuni. In Chapter 83, she does the impossible and actually gets a scream out of the Inner Demon.
Icy Blue Eyes: The gaze from them is so piercing, it actually feels like staring at blue fire.
I Have Many Names: She currently calls herself "Julia Traveler". She was known as Mary Poppins sometime in the past, and the Baron knew her by a name beginning with "S".
Killed Off for Real: Rather ambiguously. She's murdered by Abel in Chapter 133: "Hey! Scouts! Leave Those Kids Alone! Part 2". However, since she's an overlord from Hell, it raises the question of whether she really is dead or not.
Magic Staff: It seems to double as an umbrella.
Mysterious Past: She's one of the oldest characters in the series and besides her time as Mary Poppins, her origins are still mostly in the dark. This is brought to life by Nicole in "Prelude to War (Part 2)" as she hires several oracles to look into her background and they find nothing about her prior to her employment at Hexside, not even a home address.
Nerves of Steel: She always remained calm and poised, especially when she's in a fight.
Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Every time she has to battle someone, she always wins. She defeated every Glandus teacher she faced in the school war, and she not only kicked the Inner Demon out of Puck's mind, she actually scared him in the process.
Older Than They Look: Considering she's been around since the time of Moses, she's existed for around 3,000 years.

Real After All: Chapter 38 reveals she's actually the real Mary Poppins.
Secretly Wealthy: She's made a lot of money thanks to generous employers, so much that she's able to pay for Hexside's supply budget for the next ten years.
There Are No Therapists: She's the reason this trope is averted as of Chapter 26, as she comes to Hexside to help students deal with their emotional baggage.
Transplant: Again, she's the real Mary Poppins, not to mention Rosie, an Overlord of Hell.

Mrs. Pricklethorn

The teacher of the Plant track.

Green Thumb: Being the teacher of the Plant track means she naturally uses such magic.

Rupert Colt

An old friend of Principal Bump who recently became the new groundskeeper. He's in charge of the Beast Keeping Stables.

Expy: He's meant to serve as one to Rubeus Hagrid from Harry Potter.
Riddle Me This: He often gives out riddles to the students, but they don't really make much sense.

Ms. Rachelle

The Illusion track teacher.

Named by the Adaptation: In canon, she was only known as "Illusion Teacher".
Shout-Out: Her adaptive name is inspired by her second voice actress, Rachael MacFarlane.

Former

Anu Bist

The teacher of the Detention track before Kitsuni, who took over from Mr. Bloosky. A genie and a trickster demon, he sought to bring out the best of his student's magical capabilities.

See here for tropes regarding him.

Professor Blanc

The teacher of the Abomination track before Sheldon Snope, who prefered to play favorites with his students. He loses his job at Hexside due to the Abomination track being temporarily shut down due to a ghost infestation and was replaced with Snope before the new semester.

See here for tropes regarding him.

Ms. Torigore

The former cow demon teacher of the Healing track, the reason being she made the mistake of making an enemy out of Luz. She was the mother of Asi.

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: She turns out to be one as she pretended to be supportive of Luz when the reality was she hated having a human in her class and would have loved to kick her out of school if she had the chance.
Broken Pedestal: Overhearing her true opinion caused Luz to take revenge and force her into retirement.
Character Death: Ms. Torigore dying leads to her son Asi swearing revenge on Luz, studying Healing magic like she wanted at Glandus High to prep for that faithful encounter.
Cruel and Unusual Death: "Turning Point" reveals that not long after her death, she was killed when she was accidentally sent to a slaughterhouse and sold as cold cuts across the Boiling Isles.
Healing Hands: She was the teacher of the Healing track, after all.
Killed Offscreen: By the time Asi is introduced, she has already perished.
Laser-Guided Karma: Once Luz learns that Ms. Torigore doesn't actually like her, she unleashed the Choosy Hat on the teacher, which forces her into retirement.

Jonathorn Faust

Johnathorn Faust

The principal before Bump who gets his old job back while Bump is in the Healing Coven, until losing a witch's duel to him.

Adaptational Early Appearance: Faust debuts between "Knock, Knock, Knocking on Hooty's Door" and "Eclipse Lake" in present day instead of a flashback in "Them's the Breaks, Kid".
The Dreaded: He still retains this trait, as every parent who was a Hexside alumni refuses his help in the war, and even Luz becomes terrified of the guy after she meets him and learns he's filling in for Bump, causing her to retreat to her mindscape to panic for mouthing off to him.
Named by the Adaptation: He has no known first name in the parent work.
Punny Name: Johnathorn, a combination of "Johnathan" and "Thorn". Admit it, it's funny.

A Potions student who was formerly an enforcer of the "strong rules over the weak" creed at Hexside and was captain of the Banshees and one of Luz's former enemies at Hexside.

A group of kids who solve mysteries. They're comprised of Linkin Days, Everscence “Eve” Slipknot, Sioux Bansheeles, Korn Fleabite and the Cerberus sisters, Patti, Blondie and Cyndi.

Ascended Extra: Eve has more promonence in the "Human Realm" arc since her disappearance kicks off focus on the Earth side of things. Word of God also confirms she could be the oracle from the Fortune Teller coven in "Covention" with an altered design, making her one of these since she debuted.

Brother–Sister Team: Korn and the Cerberus sisters are siblings, and they pair up together during the mystery when they first debut.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Each one of them sports a uniform symbolizing their track: Linkin is brown for construction, Eve has purple for oracle, Sioux dons light blue for illusions, Korn's got the green for the plant track and the Cerberus sisters have the red of bard.

We Were Your Team: After Eve disappeared and the team took a serious curb-stomp from the Grim Goblin, they split up. Even after Eve returned home, they've already drifted too far apart to reunite and get back into mystery solving.

Dustin "Dusty" Bringems

A kid in the Beastkeeping track, he also collects rare beasts.

The Ace: "Chapter 50: Breaking Ties" reveals he's the top student of his track.
Ambiguous Situation: Dusty's immortal, so why he would continue posing as a student is beyond the readers.
The Beastmaster: Being a beast keeper will do that, with his beast being Cutler, a Sickle Weasel.
Butt-Monkey: Nothing seems to go right for the guy. However, he takes everything that's thrown at him and bounces back, making him an Iron Butt Monkey.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: The orange of the beastkeeping track is his uniform's color.
Connected All Along: "Chapter 111: So IFWOT?" reveals that Dusty has some kind of connection to, of all beings, the Collector. At the very least, it would certainly explain his immortality.

Immortality: "Chapter 93: Nina on the Couch" has him confess to being this to Nina. Chapters prior hinted at this due to his appearing in points prior to his birth and looking the same in each photo depicting such moments.

Only Known by Their Nickname: Only Ms. Traveler uses his proper name, "Dustin".

Louis

A biped demon girl in the Illusion track. Her most distinguishing feature is that instead of hair, the top of her head is an open mouth with her tongue acting as bangs.

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: She's in the Illusion track,which means her uniform would be light blue/cyan.

Cruel Cheerleader: Played With. Tamme takes her role as head cheerleader very seriously, but she can be civil outside of practice.
This Is Unforgivable!: She has it out for Emira over how she quit the cheer squad, the mere mention of her name being enough to warrant a Death Glare.

Multi-Track

Luz

Luz Clawthorne

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lc_luz_book_2_dual_track_uniform.png

Hexside's #1 Delinquent Witch

A human girl raised by Eda the Owl Lady and studies wild magic in order to be a witch.

As of "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?", she's also part of the Beast Keeping track.

See here for tropes regarding her.

Amity

Amity Goodfellow

A gifted witch who's the top student in the Abominations Track. She started out as an enemy to Luz and her friends, but befriended them while tutoring, later dating, the human rebel. Midway through Book 1, she was shown to have an aptitude for Illusion magic like her twin siblings and decided to multi-track in it.

See here for tropes regarding her.

Viney

Vinella "Viney" Potts

A rebellious girl who wants to study two different tracks; Healing and Beast Keeping, which naturally got her in trouble. She's friends with Jerbo and Barcus, like-minded students who were caught mixing different types of magic and placed in the detention track and they would later befriend Luz after she was placed in said track.

Adaptational Sexuality: Instead of being Ambiguously Gay, Viney is bisexual like Luz here.
Affectionate Nickname: Her mother calls her "scarshine".
Ascended Extra: She and her fellow troublemakers receive much more focus than in canon.
But Not Too Bi: Downplayed. Viney is bi, but never showed interest in anybody before dating Emira, which leans more into a case of Single-Target Sexuality than an implied gender preference.
Dark and Troubled Past:
- In addition to mixing magic, Viney got placed in the Detention track because she sicced Puddles on some Beast Keeping students for pulling a secret admirer prank on her. It's also why she's so hesitant to find out who her current secret admirer is.
- Viney' father died ten years prior to the series in a warehouse explosion caused by an arsonist named Firebees. Ever since that day, she waited for the opportunity to take her vengeance on him.
A Day in the Limelight:
- She, Jerbo, and Barcus share the spotlight in both "I Ain't Troubled Yet!" and "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?", both chapters expanding on their efforts in multi-tracking with the latter also focusing on her comforting Emira after she moves out of Blight Manor and becoming Skara's Beast Keeping tutor.
- Viney eventually gets her own time to shine in "Rings of Fire", where she spends the B-plot trying to track down and initially kill the witch responsible for killing her father Arnold.
Disappeared Dad: "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?" implies this and it is eventually confirmed in "After the War", which reveals that her dad died when she was young.
Given Name Reveal: Her full name, "Vinella", is revealed by Tina in "Rings of Power".
Ironic Name: Her name is suited for someone in the Plant track, which isn't one of the tracks she studies.
Not So Above It All: She picks up Emira's habit of teasing Amity about her relationship with Luz.
Official Couple: Hooks up with Emira after attending Grom together.
Out of Focus: She gets hit by this along with Jerbo and Barcus in Book 2, as their characters arcs are wrapped up and they ultimately get axed from the main cast.
Private Tutor: Not so private. When Skara joins the Beast Keeping track, she asks Viney to tutor her to get her up to speed and Viney agrees.
Punny Name: In addition to being an Ironic Name, her full name is one of "vanilla".

Jerbo

Jerbo Jeepers

A lanky boy formerly on the plant track. Jerbo was sent to the detention track for using plant magic to create organic abominations; there he met Viney, Barcus and later Luz and the four of them became close friends.

Ascended Extra: He and his fellow troublemakers receive much more focus than in canon.
Celibate Hero: Aside from dancing with Eileen at Grom, he's one of the only main characters not to be in a relationship or have a love interest, the other being Gus. "No Big Deal" reveals he's staying away from romance until he graduates, not wanting to deal with the drama his friends go through.
A Day in the Limelight: He's put under the spotlight in "I Ain't Troubled Yet!", which showcases his and his friends' drive to multi-track, "The Forest of Fear" where he saves Puck from the Greater Basilisk while camping with his family, and "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?", where he helps Amity to relax after all of her recent troubles, such as going nameless.
Out of Focus: Like Viney and Barcus, he has his character arc wrapped up which leads to his being removed from the main cast in Book 2.
Romantic Wingman: In "Grom: The Musical (Part 2)", Jerbo acts as Barcus' "wing-witch" in helping him ask the Cerberus sisters to dance.
Shout-Out: Jerbo's last name, "Jeepers", is the catchphrase of Daphne Blake from the Scooby-Doo franchise.
Small Role, Big Impact: Jerbo saving Puck's life from the Greater Basilisk led to him going to Amity for help, and their saving Luz and her family from execution.
Spanner in the Works: In saving Puck from the Greater Basilisk, Jerbo played an indirect part in helping him save Luz and her family from petrification.
Unwitting Instigator of Doom: In saving Puck, Jerbo set him up to be killed, resurrected, and being possessed by the Inner Demon for the majority of Book 2.

Barcus

Barcus Barkowski

A dog demon who was placed in the detention track for using crystal balls from the oracle track in his potions. There, he became close friends with Viney and Jerbo and they would later accept Luz as the fourth member of their group.

Ascended Extra: He and his fellow troublemakers receive much more focus than in canon.
Crazy-Prepared: As revealed in "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?", Barcus makes predictions every morning to see what disasters he can prevent throughout the day. It really comes in handy for saving Eve's neck without her even knowing it.
A Day in the Limelight: He stars alongside Viney and Jerbo in both "I Ain't Troubled Yet!" and "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?" showing his respective beginning and progression in multi-tracking.
Evil-Detecting Dog: His aura-reading capabilities make him this on a few occasions.
- In Chapter 30, he senses the Inner Demon within Amity's mind, scared of the "evil, growing infection" that he is.
- This was his role in the Monster Fighters Club in Chapter 31, as he uses his abilities to tell the difference between a real monster and someone in a costume.
- He's the first one to notice that Glandus has illusionists posing as Hexside students in Chapter 64.
Glowing Eyes: They glow white when he makes his morning predictions.
Happily Adopted: His mom's a witch, his dad's a biped fish man and his sister's a cat.
In the Hood: He wore a red hoodie as civilian wear in "The Conjuring Conflict".
Official Couple: He becomes an item with the Cerberus sisters, Pat, Blondie and Cyndi.
Out of Focus: As with Viney and Jerbo, Barcus's character arc is complete by the midway point of Book 2, so he's removed from the main cast.

Skara

Skara Brooke

Initially just a Bard tracker and Boscha's former right hand witch, Skara is more friendly to her peers and genuinely cares about all of her friends. In Book 2, she becomes a multi-tracker studying Beast Keeping.

See here for tropes regarding her.

Edric & Emira Blight

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lc_edric_and_emira_pour_ta_geist.png

Amity's older twin siblings who specialize in the Illusion track. They initially start off as pranksters who especially enjoy messing with their younger sister but after learning of her recent troubles, they make a pact to put her first.

General

Adaptational Angst Upgrade: Edric's fear of being alone and Emira's fear of being stuck with Edric forever are further explored.
Adaptational Early Appearance: The twins make their debut between the events of "I Was a Teenage Abomination" and "The Intruder" instead of "Lost in Language".
Adaptational Sexuality: Both their sexualities weren't clarified in canon, with Ed leaning towards being Ambiguously Bi and Emira being Ambiguously Gay. Here Ed is pan while Em actually is gay.

Ascended Extra: The twins are far more prominent in the LCU than they were in canon, each having their own development and storylines.
The Atoner: Both of them reach a point where they find their past actions have severe consequences and seek to make up for them.
- Emira never bothered to befriend any of the kids Odalia forced her to be friends with, scaring them away by pranking them or simply ignoring them. Emira crossed lines when she traumatized Donna by scaring her with an illusion that reminded her of Lupe and never properly breaking up with Tamme, and once she reflects on how she treated them, apologizes to both of them.
- Edric falls into a bad crowd when he starts dating Mel, ignoring his family and friends to the point that he doesn't care if they get hurt. After Amity saves him and brings him back from the Underworld, Edric starts putting in the effort to repair his relationships with his family.
Big Brother Instinct: As per canon, they start being more protective of Amity's well-being once they realize how much pressure and stress she's under.

In Spite of a Nail: They both start multi-tracking earlier than canon, but Edric still takes up Beast Keeping and Potions while Emira goes into Healing.

Tropes related to Edric

Affectionate Nickname: Both his uncle Geist and Hunter call him "Eddy".
Am I Just a Toy to You?: His relationship with Mel ends up having shades of this. After she kidnaps him from his home, Ed begins to see that Mel doesn't consider him as anything more than a pet to keep all to herself. This, combined with his Jerkass Realization, is what leads to him dumping her.
Divine Date: He ends up romancing Mel, a half-Fae goddess for two arcs in Book 2.
Everyone Has Standards: As much as he likes messing with people, it's implied that Edric draws a line at teasing through flirting to do so, given how he told Emira not to mess with Luz that way.
It's All My Fault: At the end of the "Underworld" arc, Edric comes to blame himself for Amity being forced to leave the Demon Realm after Mel outs her as half-Fae. He sees that by telling Mel all of his issues, letting her mess with his friends and not seeing what kind of a bitch she really is, he has a hand in Amity being forced to leave the happy life she built for herself at the Owl House.
Love Triangle: He unknowingly has a short-lived one with St. Epidermites Riley Strange and Sarah Atos in Chapter 118: "See the Blight". Riley and Sarah become interested in Ed after learning of his multi-track interests but Sarah lets Riley have a shot at him due to his new rule about not dating people with dark secrets.
Official Couple:
- He spends some time saying he has a boyfriend, and it's eventually confirmed to be Hunter. Upon learning he's the Golden Guard however, Edric dumps him for lying to him and hurting his and Luz's families.
- Starting from the "Human Realm" arc, he begins seeing a girl named Mel, whom he later discovers is a half-Fae goddess. He eventually dumps her near the end of the "Underworld" arc for kidnapping him and outing Amity as half-Fae.
Took a Level in Jerkass: He goes through one during the "Return to the Boiling Isles" arc, as Mel influences and manipulates him into cutting himself off from his family by praying on his insecurities. It causes him to treat Amity more abrasively and brush both her and the injuries Trini deals Luz during the Bonesborough Brawl off; he does come to his senses after seeing Mel's true colors.

Tropes related to Emira

Affectionate Nickname: Her uncle Geist calls her "Emmy".
Blue Is Heroic: Emira already wore blue on both of her uniforms, but the "heroic" part comes from her joining the superhero team known as LOWTH with her Ms. Chievious outfit being a mostly blue magician's outfit.
Code Name: After joining LOWTH, Emira takes to calling herself "Ms. Chievious" while on duty.
A Day in the Limelight: Chapter 118: "See the Blight" showcases her side of things during the "Tarot Guild" arc, mostly focusing on Em's having to consider the idea that Odalia wants to do right by their family by joining Raine's new rebellion and dethroning Belos to protect Amity from his anti-Fae dogma.
Hates Their Parent: Unlike Edric but on a larger scale from Amity, Emira absolutely resents Alador and Odalia for neglecting their children and forcing her to look after her younger siblings due to their work. She refuses to refer to them as her parents after leaving Blight Manor and doesn't believe they want to change afterward, especially fighting off the idea that Odalia had it worse than the siblings did at their age.
Hidden Depths:
- "Chapter 62: Prelude to War: Part 2" reveals that she's a lot more insecure that she lets on; she fears she'll end up alone and she had a habit of smoking when she was younger. She also admits a small part of her resents Amity because of how much she had to take care of her and Edric since their parents were too busy.
- In "The Errands in the Willows", it's mentioned by Amity that Emira was on the Banshees cheer squad when she was on the grudgby team. Em herself admits to Nina in "See the Blight" that she didn't actually want to be on the squad as Odalia forced her to join, so she threw a competition and quit soon after.
Official Couple: After spending a portion of Book 1 unable to work up the nerve, she eventually asks Viney out.
The Resenter: "Prelude to War: Part 2" shows she harbors some resentment towards Amity because she spent her whole life taking care of her siblings due to her parents being busy with their work. While Emira does admits a part of her feels this way to Amity, she also regrets having these feelings and wants to be a better person than who she used to be in her youth.
Shout-Out: Em's Ms. Chievious costume is based off of Zatanna and Tuxedo Mask.

Puffington "Puffer" Harvester

"I just wanna make it to graduation".

A spike-headed biped demon boy who starts out on the Abomination track only to be put in Construction when Luz causes a ghost infestation. As of Chapter 67, he's now dual-tracking in both.

Ascended Extra: Downplayed. While he appears and speaks more often than in the parent work, he's still a Recurring Extra in the background.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: He originally had the orchid color of the Abomination track on his uniform; when he switched to Construction, it changed to brown. As of "After the War", his pants are orchid while his sleeves remain brown.
Dishing Out Dirt: As a Construction track user, he can control stone.
Familiar: Like in canon, Puffer's palisman is a sloth, reflecting his future plans as seen below.
Humble Goal: The only plan he has for his future is to graduate from Hexside.
Maker of Monsters: As an Abomination magic user, he acts as one.
Named by the Adaptation: He's only listed on the Owl House wiki's "minor characters" page as the "Spike-headed student".

Lambi

Mary "Lambi" Lambada

^{Click to see her as of "After the War"}

A ram-horned girl who was initially in the Abomination track only to switch to Healing after the track's ghost infestation caused by Luz. As of Chapter 67, she's dual-tracking in both.

Adaptation Name Change: Zig-zagged. Her name was confirmed to be Mary, but long before this, she was called "Lambi", which became a nickname.
Ascended Extra: Downplayed. She appears and speaks more often than in the parent work, but her appearances have been rather scarce. Played straight when she starts to have a larger role after the "Human Realm" arc thanks to her potential relationship with Nina.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Originally, her uniform was orchid for the Abomination track; after the jump to Healing, they turn blue. As of "After the War", her sleeves stay blue, but her leggings are turned orchid again.
Healing Hands: As a healer, Mary has the knowledge of how to help heal people.
Implied Love Interest: "Chapter 93: Nina on the Couch" sets up Lambi as replacing Donna as Nina's Love Interest after the werecat asks her out in an effort to move on from Donna.
In-Series Nickname: Everyone calls her "Lambi", based off her last name.
Maker of Monsters: Being an Abomination magic user before the switch counts.

Only Known by Their Nickname: Up until "After the War", she's only known as "Lambi". Her first name was never even hinted at.
Red Mage: She utilizes her two types of magic for the school war, creating casts made from abomination goo to heal her fellow students. With Prof. Snope's encouragement, she returns to the Abomination track while dual-tracking in Healing.
Romantic False Lead: Deconstructed and subverted. At first, Lambi seems to have been set up as a temporary fling for Nina before she gets together with Donna. However, Nina becomes disillusioned with who Donna is as a person and finds that Lambi has all the qualities she thought Donna would have. Because of this, Nina moves on from her childhood friend and officially hooks up with Lambi.
Ship Tease: Starting from "Nina on the Couch", she begins to show some attraction to Nina after she asks her out.

Human Appreciation Society

In General

Founded and led by Gus Porter, later Mattholomule, the H.A.S. is a Hexside club that catalogues human artifacts and culture.

Ascended Extra: The club and its members are this due to Gus not being removed as president by Bump.
Intrigued by Humanity: Like Gus, each member is interested in human culture and joins to learn more about them.
Team Member in the Adaptation: Amelia and Cat weren't part of the club in canon, but here they join after befriending Gus and expressing interest in it.

Amelia Regal

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amelia_0.png

A member of Boscha's posse, she was the top student of the Plant track before Willow, and even then she had struggled to get there. She would go on to befriend Willow, who encourages her to be stronger for herself, not for Boscha's approval. She is the most recent member of the Human Appreciation Society.

The Ace: She was the top student of the Plant track until Willow joined, and even then she struggled to get there and maintain it.

Has a Type: Amelia tends to show an interest in guys named Gus, as she initially has an interest in Gus until they realize they have Incompatible Orientation and starts to get along with Gus G. in the "Tarot Guild" arc.
Hidden Depths:
- "Have a Little Hex with my Friends" shows Amelia to be good at organization and very good at calculus.
- "Deserve Nothing" reveals she has in interest in law and politics, her life's plan being to overhaul the Boiling Isles' justice system to that of the Human Realm's. In "Prelude to War (Part 1)", she describes what would happen should a child be abandoned after learning Amity has custody of Levi's sister Kay.
Magic Staff: Obtains her palisman in Chapter 55, but she rarely uses her staff outside of flying.
Ship Tease:
- She gets some with Gus when they go to Grom together. "Escape" strongly implies she's developed a crush on him and given the context, she may have joined the H.A.S. in order to get closer to him. Sadly, the ship sinks when they learn Gus is aromantic.
- Starting from Chapter 108 and continuing into the next one, she shows signs of starting to fall for Gus Gordon.
Shout-Out: Her last name is based off her voice actress, Eden Riegel.
You Are Better Than You Think You Are: Before her semester exam, she worries that failing will cost her Boscha's friendship and her status as top student. Willow encourages her to just do her best, and Amelia takes it to heart.

^{Click to see her uniform as of "The Gold Hexperience"}

Note: This character doubles as a Multi-Track student.

The Ace: The top student of the Healing track, and it shows. By Chapter 92 however, Viney's replaced her.
Adaptational Badass: Unlike her canon counterpart, we get to see her in action a lot more and she even defeats Tito Jackwitch, one of the top students at Glandus, during the "Glandus War" arc.
Adaptation Species Change: Downplayed. "Cat's Jubilee" states that through her ancestor Jamila, Cat has human genetics in her family bloodline.
Alchemy Is Magic: In "Chapter 92: The Gold Hexperience", she enrolls in the Potions track in order to learn how to mix different shampoos for hairstyling.
Ascended Extra: Her personality is much more fleshed out than it is in canon and she makes a lot more appearances. This is taken further in Book 2.
Beta Couple: Her relationship with Simon has no strife as of late.
Combat Medic: Becomes one during the Glandus War. Originally she was part of the healing team tending to Hexside's wounded, then she finds herself fighting Tito and pulls out a win via dance battling.

A Day in the Limelight: She gets to star in a sidetrack titled "Cat's Jubilee", which notes how she's handling multi-tracking before diving into her family history.
Establishing Character Moment: Cat's prowess in the Healing track is shown by her utilizing her knowledge on pressure points.
Familiar: She takes a gray-blue mouse named Mozzarella or Mozz as her palisman in "Deserve Nothing".
Gamer Chick: She admits to being one in "No Big Deal", having played Merlock Kart with Dog when she was younger.
Half-Human Hybrid: Actually, it's Part-Human Hybrid Descendant. "Cat's Jubilee" reveals she had an adopted human relative named Jamila in the Deadwardian Era, so Cat and her family have human ancestry in their blood.
Heterosexual Life-Partners: She and Amelia are best friends.
Hidden Depths:
- She has a deep passion for hairstyling, which she wants to do with her life, and there's her aforementioned Gamer Chick skills.
- After defeating Tito, she becomes intrested in dancing and playing keyboard, which leads to her joining the Bard track.
An Ice Person: She has proficiency in using ice magic, able to create a blizzard in seconds.
Large Ham: In "Chapter 21: Exams to Survive", Cat demonstrates a surprising flair for theatrics during her exam battle against Gus, which he lampshades. This theatrical side of her would later lead to her decision to join the Bard and Illusion tracks.
Mage Killer: She shows in her duel against Gus knowledge on blocking pressure points to subdue someone.
Magic Music: She also developed an interest in studying Bard magic through playing the keaboard.
Magic Staff: Obtains hers when she bonds with Mozz.

Official Couple: She develops an attraction and later a relationship with Simon Saltstar.
The Paralyzer: Cat had the ability to hit pressure points on so people can't use their limbs, which forced Gus to keep his distance from her during their witch's duel. She also uses this ability to defeat Tito during the Glandus War arc.
Red Mage: In "Understanding Odalia", Cat tells her parents she wants to multi-track but isn't sure what to take yet, so she keeps it on the backburner for the time being. In "The Gold Hexperience", she's shown to have signed up for the Bard, Illusion, and Potions tracks, making her Hexside's first quad-track student.
Rich Kid Turned Social Activist: She begins opposing the Coven system after learning the truth about Belos, and organizes a protest during the Coven Day Parade in Chapter 76.
Shout-Out: Cat's name and design are based on The Owl House storyboard artist Catherine Harman. Cat's last name in Luz Clawthorne? Harwitch.
Significant Wardrobe Shift: After a shopping trip at Echo Creek in Chapter 89, Cat uses an all-jean outfit as part of her counterculture movement, and ties a bandana around her head.
Small Role, Big Impact: When she saw that Luz was talking to the Blight twins in the library, she told Amity about it: that led to Amity tailing all three of them during the Wailing Star which led to her helping Luz when she had a panic attack. Once you think long and hard about it, Cat actually indirectly gave Luz the opportunity to own up to the ghost infestation, which led to Amity forgiving her, Luz realizing her crush on the girl and eventually, their relationship.
The Smurfette Principle: She's the only girl among the Harwitch siblings.

Mattholomule Storms

Mattholomule "Matt" Tholomule Storms

A transfer student from Glandus in the Construction track, who joins the Human Appreciation Society for power but ends up befriending its members.

Note: This character doubles as a Multi-Track student.

Adaptation Name Change: His name was simply "Matt Tholomule" as revealed in "For the Future"; now it's more complicated.
Affectionate Nickname: His fellow club members take to calling him "Matt", and he mentions Gus gave it to him.
Embarrassing Nickname: Luz calls him "Mule" when she first met him in "Friendship Dynamics", and just like canon he hates it when Bria calls him "Matty".
Familiar: In Chapter 90, Steve gives him a palisman for his birthday; Emily's former palisman, Baum the flying monkey.
Given Name Reveal: "Chapter 90: The Steve Chapter" reveals his name in this continuity.
In Spite of a Nail:
- As of "After the War", Matt is multi-tracking in Construction and Illusions.
- "Chapter 92: The Gold Hexperience" has him become president of the H.A.S. since Gus is no longer up for the job.
Official Couple: Chapter 90 sees him and Bo having a Relationship Upgrade.
Ship Tease: He's teased with having something for Bo, and it slowly builds up in Book 2.
We Used to Be Friends: He and Bria were once close, but their friendship ended when they became Glandus students, Bria literally throwing him under a bus just to rise in the school's ranks.

Bo Row

A Healing track student and member of the Human Appreciation Society who's friends with Skara, as well as the first friend Mattholomule makes at Hexside.

Ascended Extra: She's given a lot more focus not just in her friendship with Skara, but her interactions with other people, notably Mattholomule. She ends up becoming one of Luz's many close companions, to the point where she's informed about Belos's plans for the Day of Unity alongside the Blight twins and the former Banshees along with Luz's friends.
Death Glare: Once she learns about Bria, Gavin and Angmar messing with Matt, she always shoots an ice-cold glare at the boys.
Extra Parent Conception: Bo has three parents and inherited traits from all of them; she's a brunette like Suzy, bulky like Jason, and got her freckles from Mark.
An Ice Person: As a healer, Bo has access to ice magic in order to treat wounds.

Eileen Cornealius

A cyclops from the Potions track who is a member of the Human Appreciation Society and is able to communicate with others thanks to a marker board Luz gave her.

Punny Name: Her last name is a mix of "cornea" (the transparent layer in the front of the eye) and "Cornelius".
Suddenly Speaking: Sort of. Thanks to Luz, she can communicate with everyone by writing her thoughts on a dry erase board.

Simon Saltstar

The top student of the Construction track, he values strength above all else and only shows respect to those who meet him on his level. He joins the Human Appreciation Semester at the start of the new semester and is later revealed to be Boscha and Boris's cousin on their mother, Athena's, side.

The Ace: He's the top student of the Construction track.
Beta Couple: His relationship with Cat has no strife as of late.
Cain and Abel: He acts as the Abel to his older brother, appropriately named Cain.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: He sports the brown sleeves and leggings of the construction track.
Dumb Jock: His being on the Banshees at Boscha's request puts him in this category.
Establishing Character Moment: Simon's personality is described simply by his appearance and mentioning that he works out daily.
Familiar/Magic Staff: When Simon attends Palisman Adoption Day, he forms a bond with a blue demon squirrel named Flint.
Missing Mom: Boris reveals that Simon's mother, Delara, died for being against Belos' rule in "Socket to Me".
Official Couple: He's in a relationship with Cat.
Sibling Rivalry: He has one with Cain, which results in them coming to blows during the Glandus War.
Stone Wall: He's definitely built like one on account of his family having strong bones. When he faces off against Tracy Speedemon in the Bonesborough Brawl, all of her attacks don't force him back and when she did finally deal him damage, he brushed it off easily.
The Worf Effect: Simon's as much of his own tough customer as they come, so defeating him is about as much of an easy feat as taking down Luz in a fight.
- In "Glandus War: The Invasion", Simon ended up in a duel against Cain who defeated his younger brother in a duel of perseverence. Simon was still able to recover and take down Cain in a rematch.
- In "Brawl Night, Part 2", Simon faced Mel in the third round of the Brawl and she defeated him by making him break his own arm. This left Simon wearing a cast over the course of the "Tarot Guild" arc.
Younger Than They Look: Discussed: Simon is 14 but since he works out and went through witch puberty, he looks and sounds like he's in his 20's.

Elliot

A one-eyed goat boy from the Bard track who left the Human Appreciation Society after certain truths about the human race came to light but later rejoined.

Ascended Extra: Before and even after leaving the H.A.S., Elliot is much more prominent than the guy who only spoke in one episode then got stuck in the background.
Character Development: Elliot used to succumb to peer pressure and would follow other people's orders, which led to his departure from the club when Boscha slandered humanity as part of her revenge plot against Luz. He's later come to see how wrong this was and began to think for himself, rejoining the club.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Befitting his Bard status, his leggings and sleeves are red.
Magic Music: He has yet to actually show his skills in Bard magic, but he should be able to use music and sound-based attacks.

Transfers

Felicia Fox

The daughter of Felicity Fox, an Oracle tracker and transfer student from St. Epiderm who now runs the school's paper, the Hexside Free Press.

Ambiguously Gay: Word of God states that she considers the girls in her former school "foxy".
Bad Influencer: As every bit of one as her mother, as her stories tend to cause trouble for everyone else, especially whoever's close with Luz.
Big Ego, Hidden Depths: She works to be as well-known a reporter as her mother and is always looking for a scoop, but she works so hard because she just wants her mother to acknowledge her.
Celibate Hero: Not a hero, but it's implied. According to Veronica, Felicia doesn't date people and everybody but Donna knew that and it makes Donna feel even more sleazy for listening to Felicia and taking advantage of Cross the way she did.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: Since she's an oracle, her uniform would be purple.
The Corrupter: In "Chapter 111: So IFWOT?", Felicia convinces Donna to date Cross in order to make Nina jealous, likely to get a story out of it.
Expy: Word of God says she is one of April O'Neil, given her pursuit in journalism.
Laser-Guided Karma:
- For outing Amity as nameless and threatening to get Gus' father fired, she's duct-taped to the ceiling by Luz.
- Luz later hunts her down again and hangs her from a tree when she helps her mother slander Lilith's name on top of participating in getting Odalia and Alador to divorce.
The Mole: Felicia is revealed to be one for her mother in order to get stories on Luz and anyone acquainted with her.
- Reverse Mole: Luz soon found out and deciding to spare Felicia, makes her her personal info broker saying whenever Luz asks for anything, Felicia will give her answers.
Monster of the Week: She serves as a one-time villain in "Whatever Happened to Anu Bist?", in which she exposes Amity as a nameless witch.
Must Make Amends: After Amity's exposed as half-Fae and is forced to leave the Isles, Felicia agrees to help Luz take Arthur and Destiny down in "The Errands in the Willows", seeing it as a chance to make up for outing Amity as nameless.
Plot-Mandated Friendship Failure: Her lying to Donna about dating and suggesting the healer use Cross to make Nina jealous and lands her in hot water with both of them. This results in Donna disowning Felicia as a friend for the time being as of "The Alchemist's Mutant Mayhem".
Secret Chaser: Felicia always uses her ghosts to sniff out stories by spying on people, which is how she learned Amity was nameless since one of them overheard her telling Jerbo about it. "So IFWOT?" hints that Cross is wary of her because she can't keep out of other people's business.
Seers: She's an oracle and often, she uses her spirits to find scoops.
Sell-Out: She tends to fall into this on a regular basis. She becomes the manager of the Emerald Entrails to sponsor and create merchandise based on them and ran an ad for the Boiling Isles Guardians during her interview with Donna as Wonder Witch.

You Owe Me: Since Felicia outed Amity as nameless, Luz makes her her informant on whatever she asks about and as payment, she gives Felicia scoops that she barely gives any details about. After Felicia helps her mother expose Amity's deal with Lilith to the Isles, Luz permanently forces her into her debt.

Commonality Connection: Gavin finds himself sympathizing with Amity about having a coven head for a father on top of them unintentionally neglecting their child.
Starter Villain: He and his friends are some of the first Glandus antagonists to get focus, but they're actually very low on the Glandus food chain.
Toxic Friend Influence: He and his friends become this to Gus for a while until he learns their true colors.
Uniformity Exception: Since the rest of the Abomination track students are all multi-trackers, Gavin's the only single-track student in the class now.

Angmar

Angmar Loom

A friend of Bria and Gavin, he also attended Glandus as a freshman until after the school war.

First Friend: He was the first person Boscha befriended when she started attending Glandus.

Starter Villain: He and his friends were some of the first Glandus antagonists, but it's later shown that they're better than their classmates.
Toxic Friend Influence: He and his friends were this to Gus for a while until they messed with him.
The Unpronouncable: Apparently, Angmar's family name can't be pronounced in the Demon Realm, so people can call him by any surname.

Batters

Formerly a freshman in Glandus High's Bard track, he transferred to Hexside following the school war.

Expy: His nervous stuttering and Butt-Monkey tendencies along with having Abusive Parents who ground him for things that aren't his fault pretty much makes him the Demon Realm version of Butters Scotch.

Baby Class

Moose Harwitch

Cat's younger brother. Oddly enough, he has the personality of a grumpy old man.

Ambiguous Situation: There's no explanation as to why he acts older than he is. The closest hint to one comes in the sidetrack "Cat's Jubilee", where Cat says he acts like their deceased grandpa Goat, who perished the day before Moose was born.
Half-Human Hybrid: The discovery that he's the descendant of a human means he's partially human himself.

Scabrina Brooke

Skara's little sister, who's equally as morbid.

Happily Adopted: "House Brooken" reveals Scabrina is really Scandalyn's daughter (making her Slasher and Calypso's niece and Skara's cousin) and was left in her aunt's custody due to her mother traveling beyond the Boiling Isles.
Knew It All Along: She tells Nina that she knows she's not really Calypso and Slasher's child but never told them because she doesn't care: she accepts them and Skara as her family.
Nightmare Fetishist: Scabrina's just as much of one as her older sister, being willing to dissect anything to see how it works... including humans.
Troubling Unchildlike Behavior: She tends to conduct odd experiments and is interested in dissecting people or asking them for samples.

Mai

A fox Yokai and Kitsuni's little sister. As of Chapter 92, she's been enrolled into Hexside as a student in the Baby Class.

Expy: Of Miles "Tails" Prower; she's a mechanical whiz, has multiple tails that she can fly with, and is curious about how machines work.

Former Students

Dolly Tempus

"Golly Gee!"

Big Bad Wannabe: She was a loyal helper to the Inner Demon and attempts to usurp Boscha as an antagonist only to fall short when karma took a sledgehammer to her plans.
Creepy Child: Let's see: wants to usurp the coven system, has a Frankenstein-like butler, talks to her doll (which turns out to be her link to the Inner Demon.) Yep, it all fits.
Color-Coded for Your Convenience: She initially wore the purple sleeves and leggings of the oracle track. As of Book 2, they're the gray of the detention track.
Disc-One Final Boss: With how Book 1 ends, it seems Dolly's being set up to replace Boscha as the main enemy at Hexside. However, she's only given one more evil moment before being brushed aside, ultimately defeated and forgotten about.
The Dragon: She becomes the henchgirl for the Inner Demon.
Establishing Character Moment: When Dolly is introduced, she lists off her dreams of graduating, working for the Emperor's Coven, usurping the Coven system and then working in the Underworld. After that, she talks to her doll.

Hate Sink: She helps Boscha slander Luz and expose Amity as Lilith's spy to get payback on the latter for defeating her in the semester exams before she tries to let Boscha take the fall for it.
Laser-Guided Karma: Once it's revealed that she orchestrated Luz and Amity's breakup, let Skara believe it was all her fault and tried to make Boscha take the fall, Willow, Viney, Amelia and Cat beat her up and leave her hanging by a vine in a tree. She's then betrayed by the Inner Demon, who turns her into a doll and leaves her to be used as a chew toy for a demon dog.
Secondary Color Nemesis: Being an oracle, she wears purple and actively antagonizes Amity.
Seers: As an oracle, she has access to spirit summoning.
Ship Tease: "The Last Stand" shows her to have feelings for fellow oracle and Glandus top student Kadabe.

Facial Horror: In "Turning Point", he is hit in the face with an acid bomb and the right side of it melts down to the bone. After being mutated by Sonya, he now has abomination matter covering it.
Jerkass Has a Point: While fighting Gus and Boscha in the Glandus War, he brings up the fact that Luz is a magnet for trouble (even though it never affected him unless he messed with Gus).
Laser-Guided Karma: For siding with Glandus in the school war, telling Emily to kidnap Gus to bait Luz, and trying to attack Gus, Horace gets half his face burned off in "Glandus War: Turning Point" due to one of Cooker's acid bombs after Gus tricks them with an illusion.
Named by the Adaptation: The Owl House wiki simply lists him as "Thin Hexside Student".
No Name Given: It's a Running Gag that his last name is usually left unknown. JP eventually revealed it: he has none.
