The Host
Computer
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A computer monitor considered to be the main protagonist of TDOS. Computer doesn't take life seriously as reflected by his easy-going and suicidally adventurous demeanor.- Ambidextrous Sprite: Notably obvious with his rainbow LEDs when the eliminated contestants are trapped inside and appear on either side of him.
- Ambiguously Gay: At one point, Computer didn't mind the idea of being kissed by a guy after Cigar administered his signature Kiss of Death onto Shoe. Considering who Computer is, it's unknown whether he was joking or not. He also flirts with Toast and Post-It after shooing Fire Alarm off, making it possible he's bi or pan.
- However, The TDOS short "The Little Leprechaun of Seattle
" implies that he and Skull may have been more than just friends before the events of season 2 but are now exes. Case in point, Skull blushes a little when Computer begs him to take the titular leprechaun home then the latter seriously considers starting a family with the former but was told not to push it.
- However, The TDOS short "The Little Leprechaun of Seattle
- Barrier Warrior: Suddenly awakened forcefield generation in the midst of battling Cigar. It works very similar to Evil Computer's Deflector Shields except the barriers are orange instead of red. This also brings up the scary possibility that
Evil Computer would have all of Computer's powers too. - Best Friend: Skull and while he doesn't return the sentiment, Computer cares deeply for him as evident when he cried out Skull's name in despair upon realizing they got separated at Cobalt Mountain.
- Brutal Honesty: Isn't afraid to express his opinion to others.
- Catchphrase: Tends to start challenges with an enthusiastic "Go!".
- Cheated Angle: No matter which direction he's facing, Computer is almost always positioned at a 3/4 view, prominently displaying his rainbow LEDs.
- Combo Platter Powers: What do trapping others within himself, Teleportation and Frickin' Laser Beams have in common? Nothing, it's almost as if Computer has those powers for the sake of the plot.
- Create Your Own Villain: Unintentionally did this not once but three times. Dragging Skull along on his adventure to Cobalt Mountain, not allowing Airplane to join The Daily Dash as a contestant and inadvertently causing Toast to be Eaten Alive is enough to turn them all towards the dark side.
- Captain Oblivious: One of Computer's defining traits is his lack of situational awareness. This more often than not leads him into direct danger (See Below).
- Frickin' Laser Beams: His LEDs can merge into a singular, giant LED which functions as a powerful laser cannon (Though it needs sufficient time to charge).
- Forgot About His Powers: The Daily Dash proves Computer can proficiently teleport wherever and whenever he desires. And yet he doesn’t use it to free himself or Lemon when Toast ties them up in her revenge scheme, leading the rest of the season 4 contestants to rescue him.
- The Host: Of The Daily Object Show when it isn't an adventure season.
- Inside a Computer System: A very literal case since Computer has the ability to trap anyone, usually eliminated contestants, inside the LEDs on the side of his body until he wishes to release them. It was assumed Computer is limited by the three LEDs but he can easily generate more no problem.
- Leeroy Jenkins: Charges headfirst into adventure, much to the ire of Skull as it also means into life-threatening situations as well.
- Monochromatic Eyes: Has white eyes to go with his black color scheme.
- Mundane Solution: Rather than deal with the Arc Villains for The Daily Dash like the previous two seasons, he called the cops who instantly foiled their plans and escort them to prison.
- New Powers as the Plot Demands: Seems that every other season showcases another ability Computer previously didn't have. It began with his main ability then Teleportation (season 3), Frickin' Laser Beams (Season 5) and currently forcefield generation (Season 6).
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: The optimistic and impulsive Red Oni to Skull's Blue Oni.
- Regular Character: Barely gets any focus compared to the rotating cast between seasons. However, Computer has appeared in every episode to date as either a Supporting Protagonist at most or a minor role at the very least so it evens out.
- Sudden Anatomy: Can spontaneously generate LEDs to accommodate more people should he reach full capacity.
- Super Gullible: Doesn't take too much to fool Computer like the time Evil Computer claimed to be his son
- Supporting Protagonist: While Computer's protagonist status is because he appears in every single episode to date, he usually takes a backseat to whoever is in the cast for the season unless he's the main focus.
- Talking Lightbulb: A variation since Computer’s LEDs continuously glow the colours of the rainbow whether he talks or not.
- Teleportation: Gains the ability in The Daily Dash to transport himself and others over fairly long distances.note
- Your Magic's No Good Here: His power to trap eliminated contestants inside himself doesn't work in the Real Life Dimension so he alternatively made them sit offscreen and not interfere with the ongoing contest.

Blood Bag
S1 Placement: 5th (Last)
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A blood bag whose generally aggressive and hostile.- Alliterative Name: Blood Bag.
- Ambiguously Gay: He was allowed into Fire Alarm's "babes only zone," as opposed to Scat who was immediately told to leave. Considering Fire Alarm would later go in for a kiss with Scat, it's possible Fire Alarm considered Blood Bag a babe, but if he reciprocated is a different, undisclosed matter.
- The Bully: For reasons not shown, he picks on Cringe Pill and orders him to give him money in the second episode.
- Hot-Blooded: Literally speaking since he's a bag of blood with a terrible temper and brash attitude.

Card
S1 Placement: 2nd, S7 Placement: 4th (Last)
Team: Blue Team (S7)
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A birthday card who is very friendly and outgoing towards everyone.- Ascended Extra: Although she was one of the main characters in season 1, Card had a more prominent role in season 2 as Cobalt's main vessel and spokesperson for his cult.

Cringe Pill
S1 Placement: 4th, S7 Placement: 2nd

- Clashing Cousins:
Word of God said he's related to Despacito Pill as cousins but doesn't like him because of always getting the ladies with his Spanish accent. - Nerdy Nasalness: Pretty much the only nerd in the cast, he speaks with a pretty noticable nasally noise.
Scat
S1 Placement: 3rd, S7 Placement: 4th (Last)
Team: Blue Team (S7)
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A pile of droppings- Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Betrays Cringe Pill right after forming an alliance with him.
- Cool Shades: He is always seen wearing a pair of sunglasses that just adds on to his badassness.
- Karma Houdini: Not only did he get away with sabotaging Cringe Pill's invention, even after overtly gloating it to his face, but also won immunity due to having the best invention. Unfortunately for him, the viewers took note of the incident and promptly voted him out in "Showdown in the Sunlight", reversing the trope.
- New Powers as the Plot Demands: His "Dung Destroyer" move was pulled out of nowhere in "Tower of Evil" and promptly never used again.
- Running Gag: Starts the show's most iconic, seasons-spanning one of getting kicked into the stratosphere Team Rocket styled.
- Talking Poo: A rare object show example.
Water Bottle
S1 Placement: 1st, S8 Placement: 5th
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A water bottle that is able to manipulate water at her disposal. Her feisty attitude ensures she doesn't go down without a fight.- Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance: A water bottle that's able to control and generate water.
- Larynx Dissonance: If it were not for Cringe Pill addressing her as "M'lady", the viewers can easily mistake Water Bottle for a guy due to her Tomboyish Voice.
- Making a Splash: Has this ability, whether it's for materializing tidal waves or Flight via water propulsion.
- Power Glows: Her hands glow bright blue whenever she activates her powers.
- Relationship Reveal: Casually mentions having a boyfriend in the finale, much to Cringe Pill's dismay. Some of you may think it's the Boyfriend Bluff given the context but sure enough, he made his appearance in the third season as Lava Bucket.
- Sudden Anatomy: Sometimes, she would gain fingers when using her powers. Any other time is Fingerless Hands.
- Token Super: Water Bottle is the only season 1 contestant to consistently have powers.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: Briefly underwent one in "The Motion for the Lotion" due to her determination to win TDOS; she insults Card because she fell in her trap. She reverts back next episode upon becoming the victor.

Skull
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A cartoon skull of a human head. He made his introduction in season 2 as Computer's pessimistic Best Friend.- Deuteragonist: In the second season The Cult of Cobalt, although he doesn't do as much action as Computer, if he weren't there with him, Computer wouldn't have known about Cobalt Blue's plan.
- Evil Former Friend: Didn't take much for Skull to turn towards the dark side and swore vengeance on Computer once he missed out on the Galactus Fortnite event.
- Face–Heel Turn: Originally a friend of Computer who followed him on his journey, he quickly, along with his army of evil clones, takes revenge on him because he had missed the Galactus Fortnite event.
- The Lancer: He usually opposes Computer's fool-hardy decisions and is reluctantly dragged along the adventure to Cobalt Mountain.
- No Mouth: Although he can talk just fine without one.
- Oh, My Gods!: Says the phrase with "Calcium" in place of "Gods".
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: The cynical and skeptical Blue Oni to Computer's Red Oni.
- Sequel Non-Entity: As season 2 was a prequel to the previous season, he was nowhere to be found in season 1 due to becoming fed up with Computer's adventure wasting his time.
- Skull for a Head: Not only that but he IS the skull!
- Vitriolic Best Buds: Clearly finds Computer a nuisance and is never on board with his plans but are considered friends regardless. Alas, this isn't enough for Skull to stay friends with him as he ditches Computer over an incredibly petty reason.
The Super Objects
From Top to Bottom: Aqua, Cloudy, Tree and Fireball
Voiced by: TBD
A group of all-powerful, god-like objects that used to rule the town near Cobalt Mountain. The objects consist of a water puddle, a storm cloud, a fireball and a tree.- All There in the Script: Their names were revealed in a livestream to be Aqua, Cloudy, Fireball and Tree. Guess which object is which.
- Armless Biped: The limbless Aqua is a variation of the trope.
- Cool Shades: Fireball has these which look identical to Scat's.
- Elemental Powers: In correspondence with their object, the group has the combined powers of ecokinesis (Tree), electrokinesis (Cloudy), hydrokinesis (Aqua) and pyrokinesis (Fireball).

The Cult of Cobalt
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
An army of blue-and-white striped vases and blue-tinted aluminium soldiers. They were created by Cobalt Blue to be his loyal but mindless underlings.- All There in the Script: Their names were not mentioned on the show but disclosed in one of Fusion's Twitter posts to be Vase and Aluminium.
- Armless Biped: Every Aluminium soldier has no arms, making them the first examples in TDOS.
- Antagonist Title: The titular cult is in the season 2 title although their status also makes it a Secondary Character Title.
- Clone Army: The whole cult, barring the brainwashed season 1 cast, is comprised of two types of identical objects, either vases or aluminium bars.
- Color-Coded Armies: The cult members have one thing in common, besides the fact they are either one of two types of identical objects, all of them are shades of blue to go along with their leader's color scheme.
- Good Colors, Evil Colors: An inversion of Blue Is Heroic in this case as they are mooks under the control of Cobalt Blue.
- Hidden Eyes: All of them have blue scribbles that censored their eyes.
- Informed Ability: The group of so-called elite vase soldiers was easily defeated by Computer's rocks.
- Literally Shattered Lives: Since the Vase soldiers are made of porcelain, they're easily breakable as Computer proves in "Out of The Blue". This counts as their Logical Weakness too.
- Sinister Scythe: The vase soldiers always carry these on their person.

A diary (or journal as he puts it)- Butt-Monkey: Gets excruciatingly burned to cinders twice by Lava Bucket.
- Early-Bird Cameo: Appeared briefly in season two's "Night of Purity" alongside Lava Bucket before his official debut two episodes later.
- Do Not Call Me "Paul": Very insistent on the name "Journal" since he finds "Diary" absolutely embarrassing.
- Reduced to Dust: The two times he died, they were from being burnt to ashes by Lava Bucket.
- Shout-Out: His design is based on the cover of the original Diary of a Wimpy Kid and his very first lines are almost verbatim to the opening paragraph of said book.Diary: First of all, let me get something straight. I am a journal, not a diary. I know what it says on the cover but when my mom went out to the store to buy me, I specifically told her to get one that didn't say "diary" on it.
- Unexplained Recovery: There is no mention of recovery centers or any sort of device to revive someone in the TDOS universe, yet Diary comes out unscathed whenever Lava Bucket accidentally burned him to ashes.

Recommended by: Sami
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A fire alarm.- Fearless Fool: Jumps off a waterfall without hesitation, all the while kicking back as he and his screaming partner plument to the waters below.

Recommended by: Satomi
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A sheet of dried seaweed- Early Installment Character-Design Difference: Back in the season 3 teaser, Nori (fifth silhouette) was shorter, wavier and had a slight tear on top of their head.
- Monochromatic Eyes: Since their body is completely pitch-black, Nori's eyes (and sometimes limbs) are white for visibility.
- Vocal Evolution: The way they talk is quite inconsistent and can vary from episode to episode. This is because Fusion has trouble coming up with a suitable voice for them considering he voice acts almost the entire TDOS cast.
Sketchpad
S3 Placement: 6th (Last)
Team: Angry Artists
Recommended by: Rival Race
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A ringed sketchpad who claims to be a world-renowned artist whose lackluster skills say otherwise.- Giftedly Bad: Clearly deluded in his artistic abilities, being as talented as a blindfolded 8-year-old's crayon drawings.
- Terrible Artist: Proclaims to be a talented artist yet made a crude drawing of the mountains in "Running Up the Rainbow". Upon seeing it, Nori insults the drawing; Sketchpad becomes offended to showcase his grand delusions.
Tiny Tacos (and Box)
S3 Placement: 3rd, S7 Placement: 1st, S8 Placement: 2nd
Team: Tiny y Despacito
Voiced by: FusionAnimations (Tiny Tacos) and Fusion's Dad (Box)
A box containing three tacos inside. The tacos are very happy, upbeat and childlike, though the third one seems to be more irritable, while Box is always grumpy and speaks in a quiet deadpan voice.- Actor Allusion: Box being a father figure to the Tiny Tacos acknowledges how the former's voice actor is a dad himself to the creator of TDOS.
- Alliterative Name: Tiny Tacos.
- The Baby of the Bunch: If indicated by their childish attitude, the Tiny Tacos are the youngest competitors on TDOS.
- Cheerful Child: All three of the Tiny Tacos qualify as this.
- Not So Stoic: Box smiles when the Tiny Tacos returns in Episode 6; in the next episode, he is amazed at the fact that Despacito Pill can fly while singing Despacito.
- Numerical Theme Naming: The trio of tacos are named One, Two and Three (Until their Sudden Name Change).
- Papa Wolf: Box may not act it but he's really protective over the Tiny Tacos. This is shown when they went missing in "Fear Me" and he will stop at nothing until he gets them back.
- Perpetual Frowner: Box's default expression, although he can still express emotions.
- The Quiet One: Box rarely says anything unless it involves the endangerment of the Tiny Tacos.
- Shout-Out: The Tiny Tacos and Box take after the Real Life Tiny Tacos, usually served in a takeout box, offered by American food franchise Jack In The Box.
- Speak in Unison: The Tiny Tacos do this in challenges, usually when chanting or celebrating:Episode 2 "Running Up the Rainbow":The Tiny Tacos: [Box carries them up the mountain] Box, Box, Box, Box! [Box jumps to the summit] Yay!Episode 3 "Go Jump off a Waterfall":The Tiny Tacos: [Box falls from the cliff] Weee!Episode 5 "The Calcium Clones", when the Tiny Tacos are freed from Skull:The Tiny Tacos: Yay!

Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A wooden walk-in wardrobe. He doesn't have the physical prowess to go with his size but makes it up by being resourceful.- The Big Guy: Singlehandedly the largest contestant and overall second largest next to Plane on the show. He's so massive that he requires 4 legs to support his weight.
- Big Guy, Little Guy: He's the Big Guy to Blogger's Small Guy.
- Blow You Away: His breath is strong enough to lift himself up several thousand feet and leave a crater upon takeoff.
- Guile Hero: Uses his smarts and the clothes inside him to win challenges.
- Non-Standard Character Design: He is the first of two characters to have four legs as opposed to just two.
- Sudden Anatomy: Inverted, the season 3 teaser shows him (last silhouette) with arms.
Others
The Police Force
- Cool Shades: The road sign police officer in "The Calcium Clones"
- Police Are Useless: Completely averted as they're ridiculously competent than any Real Life cop and were the ones to take down the season 3 antagonists...twice.
Introduced in Season 4
Contestants
In General
From Left to Right: Tablet Pen, Post-It, Toast, Spoon and Lemon
A group of not-so-friendly friends competing in the fourth season of TDOS. They also starred in the non-competition-based fifth season to stop Toast's reign of terror caused by the previous season.- Everyone Has Standards: Lemon and Tablet Pen may be jerks but they're absolutely horrified at what Post-It did to Toast.
- Five-Man Band: The Real Life Battle contestants form this once their dynamic is displayed the following season.
- The Leader: Tablet Pen, likely to take charge in times of crisis and the winner of Real Life Battle. He's willing to risk his life for his friends, even if they're on bad terms.
- The Lancer: Post-It, is at odds with Tablet Pen and everybody else the most. Also the first one to question the plans of his friends.
- The Smart Guy: Lemon, has connections and the one who ultimately stopped Toast's Roaring Rampage of Revenge with them.
- The Big Guy: Toast, uses her fists and insults to solve conflict and was temporarily the Token Evil Teammate due to circumstances.
- The Heart: Spoon, the friendliest, ditziest and most comedic of the bunch.
- Odd Friendship: Fusion describes them all as friends in season 5 even though Toast, Lemon, Post-It and Tablet Pen are antagonistic towards each other to varying degrees. As for Spoon, she happily tags along due to not minding her friends' attitudes or their bickering between one another.
- Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: Spoon is the tallest amongst the five while Toast is taller than Post-It and Lemon but shorter than Tablet Pen.
- Two Girls to a Team: Spoon and Toast are female while Tablet Pen and Lemon are male, and Post-It has Ambiguous Gender.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: Excluding Spoon, the contestants are not shy to be generally unpleasant and snipe each other with rude remarks. When push comes to shove, however, they genuinely care for one another which is best exemplified when Toast, after almost killing them and taking over the world, was Easily Forgiven by the rest and went out for burgers like it was nothing.
Lemon

Post-It

S4 Placement: 3rd
Recommended by: Oook Animations
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A post-it note stack. They can be very opinionated about certain ideas, like what constitutes true art, and bash people who say otherwise.- Ambiguous Gender: Due to not being referred to by any pronouns in TDOS, it's unknown what gender Post-it is (Which explains the mass confusion in the comments). Most viewers headcanon them as a boy but some argue the opposite because of their slightly Effeminate Voice and the rest just use gender-neutral pronouns. Not even their creators can agree with Fusion deciding they're a girl in a recent livestream while their recommender confirmed they're non-binary◊ in light of the viewers' ceaseless arguments on the subject matter.
- Bias Steamroller: Believes traditional art is far superior to digital art and insults Tablet Pen's impressive artwork for that.
- Create Your Own Villain: They used Toast as part of their sandwich and she unsurprisingly got Eaten Alive. This leads her to get revenge on Computer and the Real Life Battle contestants because of their reckless decision.
- Easily Forgiven: Realizing what they had done, Post-It finally apologizes to Tablet Pen and Toast in "Lotion Seller, I Am Going To Battle". In spite of hurting the former's feelings by biasedly putting down his passion and kickstarting the events of season 5 by almost turning the latter into a full-fledged villain, both of them accept their apology rather quickly.
- Jerkass Realization: Originally believes that traditional art is superior to digital art, as shown in Episode 3 "Worst Critic in All the Land", and has argued with Tablet Pen for this multiple times. Next season, they apologize to him for starting this feud.
- The Unapologetic: Believing that traditional art is better than digital art, they won't give up very easily in their feud with Tablet Pen for dissing him about it. This lasted from season four all the way to the finale of season 5.Tablet Pen: Are you gonna apologize yet?Post-It: No.
Spoon

S4 Placement: 2nd
Recommended by: PM_XN
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A chipper but airheaded metal spoon who isn't the best at anything but still gives it her all.- Curse Cut Short: When she finds out something happened to Toast and compliments her non-existent haircut.
Spoon: "Hi Toast! You look a little different today. Did you get a haircut? Your sides are faded as fu-"
Toast: "NO."
- The Ditz: Ladies and gentlemen, we have found a bigger airhead than Computer. And how ditzy Spoon is you may ask? She believes her ever-arguing, Jerkass friends are wonderful people and thought Toast got a new hairstyle, ignoring the obvious changes and the fact she doesn't have hair.
- From the Mouths of Babes: For all her cheerfulness and ditziness, she isn't exactly the most innocent.
- Lack of Empathy: A mild case since her constant cheerfulness makes it hard to feel bad for others. Like when
- Perpetual Smiler: Except when faced with potential danger or in fight scenes, she is shown smiling every time she appears.
- Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: She is taller than any of her friends including Tablet Pen, Lemon and Post-It (?).
Tablet Pen
S4 Placement: 1st, S8 Placement: 3rd
Recommended by: Cloudform Studios
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A drawing tablet pen who is talented in digital artistry.- Chekhov's Gun: The photo-realistic dollar bill he got from winning season 4 was used to pay off the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion in the season 5 finale and end Toast's reign of terror for good. Unfortunately, it also incurs the wrath of the shopkeeper's boss who is now out for Computer's life. Whoops.
- Hidden Depths: Tablet Pen is an aspiring and talented digital artist, shown with the really impressive background he drew for "Worst Critic in All the Land", and takes critiquing art quite seriously.
- Jerkass Has a Point: He was right in saying Post-It should have used Constructive Criticism instead of straight-up dissing Tablet Pen's artwork because of their belief that traditional art is far superior to digital.
- Jerkass with a Heart of Gold: Moreso than Toast, Lemon and especially Post-It. He can be just as snarky and rude as them but wouldn't hesitate to save their figurative skins from impending danger.
Toast

S4 Placement: 5th
Recommended by: Sworder4567
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A piece of toast. She was one of those stereotypical mean contestants, gruff attitude but harmless nonetheless, before someone (*cough* Post-It *cough*) had the audacity of incorporating her into a sandwich.- An Arm and a Leg: Her left arm is nothing but a stump after Mr. Human had unknowingly bitten it off. Fortunately, it grew back after taking a whiff of the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion.
- Antagonist Title: The title character for the fifth season Revenge of Toast.
- Arc Villain: She is the main antagonist of the fifth season, which was foreshadowed in the ending of season 4.
- Brought Down to Normal: Once restored back to her original state, Toast presumably lost her powers manifested from her injuries to control jelly.
- Easily Forgiven: After almost enacting world domination via mind-control which would certainly most kill the cast, her friends sure forgive and forget easily as they all went out for burgers after the ordeal is over.
- Eaten Alive: Suffered this ordeal when she became part of Post-It's sandwich for the challenge in "Better Than Ramsay" and was unknowingly fed to Mr. Human. Toast survives but the damage was done, losing her arm and had several bites taken out of her in the process. The incident enacted her Roaring Rampage of Revenge onto the season 4 cast.
- Healing Factor: Thanks to the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion, Toast regains her arm and the bitten parts of her body, restoring back to her normal state.
- Larynx Dissonance: An even worse case than Water Bottle, what with her voice paralleling the likes of Blood Bag.
- Revenge Before Reason: Until The Really Neutral Smelling lotion clear her judgment, she would stop at nothing
- Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: To an extent since she's the Huge Girl to Lemon's and Post-It (?)'s Tiny Guy but not to Tablet Pen.
- Traumatic Superpower Awakening: Being Eaten Alive, losing an arm and smeared in jelly is not a pleasant experience for anyone. Obtaining powers to manifest and manipulate jelly on top of the trauma doesn't make it cool.
- Swiss-Army Superpower: Controlling jelly might not sound impressive or dangerous but you would be surprised at how versatile it is. For the short time Toast had this power, she demonstrated Projectile Webbing, ensnarement, Deflector Shields, creating jelly abominations, turning others into mind-controlled zombies and an One-Winged Angel form similar to her jelly abominations.

The six lackeys of Cigar posing as the contestants on the sixth season of TDOS. Their mission is to retrieve the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion for their boss.- Punch-Clock Villain: While the contestants themselves have varying degrees of niceness, they were actually ordered by their boss to disguise as contestants so that they can get the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion. They switch sides for good when Cigar's Kiss of Death can be neutralized by the lotion and they no longer have to fear him for it anymore.
Cauldron
S6 Placement: 6th (Last)
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
- Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Claims and is one-hundred percent certain Computer would like a meal consisting of bark, grass and trash in "We Upset the Mafia". Envelope calls him out on his biased logic.
Envelope
S6 Placement: 3rd
Voiced by: Fusion's Mom
- Flat Character: Literally and figuratively. She is flat as a piece of paper (Given she's an envelope) and doesn't have as much screen time or talking time as the rest of the contestants. Thus, we don't know much about her personality.
- No Mouth: Lacks a mouth but can talk normally in spite of it.note
- The Quiet One: She doesn't speak as much as the rest of the lackeys, possibly alluding to having No Mouth.
- The Smurfette Principle: It can be assumed she's the only female lackey given her ostensibly feminine voice.
Magma Bucket
S6 Placement: 2nd, S7 Placement: 3rd
Team: Yellow Team (S7)
Voiced by: SnowyPackel
A magma bucket and the father of Lava Bucket.- Strong Family Resemblance: So much so, you can mistake him for Lava Bucket with a mustache.
Meatball
S6 Placement: 1st, S8 Placement: 6th (Last)
Voiced by: SnowyPackel
An enthusiastic meatball who is very invested in competing compared to the mission.- Keet: He seems incredibly excited about competing in TDOS than actually retrieving the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion.
Normal Pill
S6 Placement: 5th, S7 Placement: 4th (Last)
Team: Blue Team (S7)
Voiced by: SnowyPackel
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Tried speedrunning to avoid elimination but ended up going around the world and slamming into Computer's LED anyway.
- Shout-Out: His colour scheme and smiley-face mask are reminiscent of Minecraft gamer Dream's avatar. He's also a reference to the normal pills in Dream's music video "Mask".
Shoe
S6 Placement: 4th
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A brown shoe and the most dedicated out of the lackeys to retrieve Cigar's lotion. Although as he continues participating in the competition, Shoe is beginning to have second thoughts...- Armless Biped: The first TDOS limbless contestant.
The Villains
In General
Not like the singular villain found periodically on Object Shows with their main motive of stealing the grand prize for themselves, this Rogues Gallery is out for Computer's figurative blood and would stop at nothing for Revenge with a side of world conquest.
- Arc Villain: Every single season to date has at least one villain attacking the cast, taking over the world and/or plotting Revenge on Computer (sometimes others but mostly him).
- Season 1 - Evil Computer and Evil Blood Bag were created by the malfunctioning clone machine and wanted to take over Computer's show.
- Season 2 - Cobalt Blue was a Super Object who held a show called the Night of Purity to control the participants' minds.
- Season 3 - Airplane, and less significantly, Skull. Airplane felt resentful for not being a contestant in Computer's show, and Skull wanted to take revenge on him as he missed out on the Galactus Fortnite event.
- Season 4 and 5 - Toast was used in a food contest and was thus bitten by Mr. Human. Next season, she went the extra mile and built a machine that turns the world into jelly.
- Season 6 - As the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion was taken by Compter, Cigar orders his six lackeys to join Computer's competiton. When the plan goes wrong, he goes out to disrupt it.
- Evil Sounds Deep: All the villains save for Airplane have voices of varying deepness, and yes, they sure are evil.
- Rogues Gallery: Season 1 has Evil Computer and Evil Blood Bag; Season 2 has Cobalt Blue; Season 3 has Airplane and Toast; Season 4 and 5 have Toast (though she reverts back to normal in the end); Season 6 has Cigar. In Season 7, all of them, except for Toast, unite to gather the four lotions needed to become Super Objects.
Evil Computer
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
The evil clone of Computer.- Big Bad: Of the entire series, most notably in seasons 1, 8 and 9, starting from the Cliffhanger of "The Invention of Deception".
- Blatant Lies: When Evil Computer first met Computer, he accidentally introduces himself as Evil Computer until he makes a Verbal Backspace and says that he is Computer the Second. Despite this, and his evil white-and-red appearance, Computer initially believes him.Evil Computer: I am Evil Comput- Uh, I mean, uh, Computer... the Second!Computer: You're my son?!
- The Corrupter: Had lured Evil Blood Bag, who was just confused at the time, to The Dark Side and in turn became Evil Computer's dragon.
- Deflector Shields: Can create these around himself which can No-Sell most things like Water Bottle's tsunami attack but not Card's confetti cannon.
- Disc-One Final Boss: If we were to follow non-chronological order, Evil Computer is just the "first" of the Big Bad antagonists the main cast has to deal with.
- Evil Doppelgänger: It's right there in his name.
- Kill It with Fire: In "Showdown in the Sunlight", he's burned to a crisp on the sun while retrieving the lotion.
- Light Is Not Good: While his color scheme is mostly white, he has malicious intentions namely of taking over the show and destroying the cast.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: He has these red eyes to signify his evilness.
- White and Red and Eerie All Over: His whole gist! His color scheme is red and white, and he's a bad dude. No explanations here.
Evil Blood Bag
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
The evil clone of Blood Bag serving as Evil Computer's right-hand man.- Energy Ball: Can conjure wisps of dark energy from his fingertips although he has yet to use it on anyone.
- Dark Is Evil: He has a dark color scheme, reflecting his status as a baddie.
- The Dragon: To Evil Computer.
- Evil Doppelgänger: It's right there in his name.
- Kill It with Fire: In "Showdown in the Sunlight", he's burned to a crisp on the sun while retrieving the lotion.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Similar to Evil Computer.
- The Voiceless: Has the least amount of dialogue amongst the villains (and the entire cast in general) with one ominous "Yes".
Cobalt Blue
See here for ghost form
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
An uncut cobalt blue crystal.- Ancient Evil: As a Super Object, he has existed since "a really long time ago".
- Big Bad: Of season 2, "The Cult of Cobalt".
- Body Snatcher: When Cobalt Blue takes over someone's body, they will be transferred to his mindscape and he will gain control of their mind in the process.
- Good Colors, Evil Colors: An inversion of Blue Is Heroic in this case since he is the Big Bad who hijacks people into becoming his loyal underlings.
- Fog Feet: In his ghost form.
- Hive Mind: Multiple people can be in his mindscape and thus be controlled by him, as seen with Computer, Skull, Card, Water Bottle, Blood Bag, Scat and Cringe Pill.
- Logical Weakness: Since Cobalt's mind control makes use of inhaling his cobalt fumes, it can be counteracted when there's a stronger smell enough to overcome the fumes entirely (The Really Good Smelling Lotion) or wash away the fumes before anyone has time to inhale it (Water Bottle's tidal waves).
- Mind Manipulation: Using his cobalt fumes, he can brainwash people into joining his cult and do his bidding.
Mysterious Figure (Season 3 spoilers)
See here for unshadowed version
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A mysterious cloaked object that's up to no good. Early on in season 3, it's unknown what their ulterior motives are besides the fact they were the one who stole the Cloner 3000 and had became an unwanted stowaway on Plane. For more information, see Skull's folder page above.- Big Bad: Of season 3, "The Daily Dash".
- Complexity Addiction: He enacted an overly complicated plan of stealing the Cloner 3000, hiding out on Plane for several days, cloning an army of himself and kidnapping the Tiny Tacos in Sidney, Australia to lure Computer to his demise. Within five seconds flat, Computer simply called the cops who soundly defeated and escorted Skull to prison.
- Clone Army: Skull used the Cloner 3000 on himself for this very purpose. The copies themselves, dubbed Calcium Clones, are all dark-colored with red eyes but proved to be ineffective in defeating Computer.
- Company Cross References: The cloak Mysterious Figure wore resembles Dark Scary Guy With A Hood, another villain Fusion created from his old Super Slash comics.
- Foil: To Airplane as both wanted Revenge against Computer for absurd reasons and got arrested then killed because of it.
- Revenge: Against Computer for making him missed the Galactus Fortnite event he waited weeks for because it was on the same day as their adventure to Cobalt Mountain. If you asked, yes. It's a very stupid reason for revenge.
- Walking Spoiler: Their true identity is why they have the placeholder name of "Mysterious Figure" and most of the information regarding them is redacted.
- We Used to Be Friends: Originally a friend of Computer, their journey to Cobalt Mountain made him miss the Galactus Fortnite event, making him kidnap the Tiny Tacos later.
- Wham Shot: When demanded they unmask themself, they took the viewers by surprise by being none other than Skull! However, those present at the reveal still are clueless since they never met beforehand.
Airplane
Voiced by: Paisley Pancake
A jumbo plane whose duty was to transport The Daily Dash cast around the world. She grew out of the role to become one of Computer's many antagonists.- Disproportionate Retribution: The fact that she couldn't join Computer's competition is enough to make her steal his lotion.
- Felony Misdemeanor: Stealing lotion is somehow a serious criminal offense that outranks kidnapping children and using a Clone Army for the purpose of destroying everything your former friend cherised.
- Foil: To Skull as both wanted revenge against Computer for absurd reasons and got arrested then killed because of it.
- Living Prop: Other than chauffeuring the cast to various destinations, she has no role or importance beyond being a vehicle for Daily Dash.
- Make Way for the New Villains: Took over the role of the Big Bad after Skull went outta commission mid-way through season 3.
- Mythology Gag: The reason why she performs a Face–Heel Turn was because Computer refused to let her become a contestant on the show. Funnily enough, she was a contestant backed in a scrapped object show Fusion made called Fall Objects, also hosted by Computer.
- Sentient Vehicle: As you can tell, she is an anthropomorphic, self-flying airplane.
- The Smurfette Principle: The only active female in the Rogues Gallery since Toast (and her Mini counterpart) aren't villains anymore.
- Sudden Name Change: The credits of "A New Batch of Faces" listed her as Plane before "Showdown in the Nothern Light" changed it to Airplane.
- Tranquil Fury: After Computer had harshly turned down her request to be a contestant in the season 3 premiere, later episodes shown Airplane with increasingly miffed expressions. Foreshadowing how her grudge made her turn on Computer and steal the grand prize of The Daily Dash.
- True Final Boss: Just when the daily dose of Arc Villain is taken care of for season 3, Airplane turns evil out of nowhere to claim (steal) the grand prize as her own.
- Un Evil Laugh: Her evil maniacal laughter is more like a blow dryer blowing beside your ear.
Toast
See Toast's folder page above for tropes regarding her.
Cigar
Voiced by: FusionAnimations
A cigar and notorious criminal underlord of the mafia.- Kiss of Death: Gives this to Shoe for turning traitor, to everyone's surprise and Computer's delight. It is later revealed that the prize, the Really Neutral Smelling Lotion, neutralizes its effect.
