Sanctum Contestants

GhostKat

• Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Very good at making speedcore/terrorcore music, virus making not as much, anything else falls victim to their short attention span .
• Cloud Cuckoolander
• Color-Coded Characters: Everything about GK is purple...outside of their eyes and mouth (and the eyes and mouth on their shirt symbol) which are varying shades of yellow.
• Digital Avatar: Only known online as a small purple cat with vine powers, being brought into Sanctum fused their human self with this avatar to make a physical variation of the virus. Not that it bugs them at all, they’ve been wanting to make a physical costume for a while.
• Expressive Mask: Technically Expressive Goggles, said goggles were fused to the face and replaced their eyes after the virus fusion. Their mouth has a bit of this too since it doesn’t actually open.
  • The ears on their hoodie also react to any emotions in a cat-like manner
• Expressive Shirt: The face on GK’s shirt is sometimes more expressive than GK’s face
• Genius Ditz: (See Bunny-Ears Lawyer)
• Goggles Do Nothing: They just make them look more like their persona.
  • If anything they worked for cutting down glare on the screen while being on the computer in a dark room
• Headphones Equal Isolation: Downplayed, while they were pretty isolated they aren’t completely antisocial, even when they can't hear what anyone is saying 90% of the time
• Kayfabe Music: "GhostKat" made an entire online identity just for their music, and were ready to try going on tour as their persona before getting dragged into Sanctum.
• Mind Virus: While too weak to control them entirely, the Virus mostly triggers GK to do things like fighting a threatening program (essentially all the opponents/judges) and go to the Pillar, despite how GK feels about the situation.
• No Biological Sex: Outside of Sanctum they had an Ambiguous Gender; this became No Biological Sex when they were brought in and combined with the virus.
• Only Knownby Their Nickname: Exaggerated by not revealing anything about who they are offline, especially to their fans. They barely know their real name themselves.
• The Symbiote: A virtual version since they got fused with a virus, the Parasitism variation
• The Unintelligible: Their voice is too glitched to talk, although some characters can vaguely make out what they're trying to say.

Pochi

• Magitek: He's a robot who can cast spells.

Thomas and May

Thomas:

• Gadgeteer Genius: Zig-zagged with Thomas. Yes he may know a lot about gadgets, but it is especially with non-electronic things, and he mostly uses this knowledge in repairing, not as much as creating things. He loves doing the latter though.
• Improbable Weapon User: Other than the retractable staff thing, which may not be too useful at times, he has a grappling hook and an umbrella.
  • Parasol of Pain

May:

• Flying Face: Pretty much what May-bot is.
• Manipulative Bastard: More emphasis on “Manipulative” than on “Bastard”.
• Pink Means Feminine: May has a liking to the color pink, and is feminine. Pink even is her representative color.

Spark

• Shock and Awe

Ruby and Fidele

Ruby

• Expressive Mask: Not as extreme as some examples, but most noticeably, the ears of his mask tend to move to his expressions.
• Healing Factor: Heals wounds faster than a normal human.
• Let's Fight Like Gentlemen: Values a fair fight and will make sure that his opponent is in good condition before battle. If Ruby's opponent is disarmed and they need their weapon to fight well, Ruby will retrieve their weapon and return it to them.
• The Voiceless: Obviously he has the best voice actor ever. He can still communicate with Fidele, however.

Fidele

• The Cracker: He's able to hack the system to a small extent.
• Cyborg
• Death Is Cheap: He respawns after a short while if he is killed, thanks to entering the place "illegally".
• Electronic Eyes: They also show how much health he has left.
• Non-Action Guy: Doesn't fight, he's just there to watch over Ruby. Until round 4 onwards, where he uses his hacking abilities to help Ruby in fights.

Yinkret and Rellik

• Split Personality

Lord Overlord

• Badass Cape
• Department of Redundancy Department: His name. It pretty much tells you how serious of a villain he is.
• Evil Gloating

• Harmless Villain: Is more of an annoyance than a threat to society. He's also less of a threat to Sanctum than many of the other villainous contestants.
• Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: Not a failure per se, but everybody else never gives him the respect he demands.
• I Surrender, Suckers: Uses this tactic on William. Twice. It works both times.
• Large Ham: A theatrical supervillain who proclaims his thoughts and feelings out loud.

• Mighty Glacier: Has low speed but high offense.

• Poke the Poodle: His crimes include standing on grass, destroying twinkie factories, robbing fast-food restaurants and using lasers to draw genitalia on the moon. His form of torture involves trapping people in pit with a goat. An ordinary goat.

• Rollerblade Good: Has rocket skates inside his boots.
• Shock and Awe: He can shock his opponents by grabbing them.

• You Fool!: Says this very often.

AL

• The Virus

Roldan

• Unlikely Hero: Just a normal guy who wanted to take a peek at this new “virtual reality” thing. But of course, it never turns out like that...

  • Oscar was made to juggle chainsaws. He also knows what they can do to an opponent.
  • Jimmie mans the "Test your strength" hammer game to make it look easy. This also means he's very skilled at wielding it.

• Killer Robot
• Killed Off for Real: Wizzle and his bros are permanently put down by Ruby and Fidele.
