A unique Captian that comes with the Southern Dragon which was available for the 2017 Lunar New Year Special Event.- Our Dragons Are Different: Literally a Chinese Dragon. Specifically one that looks like the Southern Dragon King.
Naval Nonsense
Capt. Salty McGraw & Ens. Tate R. Smith
The Main characters of Naval Nonsense, an official comic started in May 2018. Captain Salty McGraw, as his name indicates, is a veteran of (virtual) naval warfare and familiar with how life and battle goes in World of Warships ever since Open Beta. Ensign Tate R. Smith is the new crew member who is slowly realizing that the historical tactics and logistics of real life don't exactly apply here.- Berserk Button: Capt. McGraw hates the extremely non-historical ship aesthetic "camo" designs, and Anime Ship-Girls.Smith:(In response to the Captain spotting Monaghan and her Eagle Land style ship "camo") Relax, Sir. Like you always tell me: "It's just a game!"
Capt. McGraw: A game based on history, Ensign. History! - Cloudcuckoolander: Capt. Salty is this to the traditional warfare minded Ensign Smith. The Captain in return holds Smith as one regarding some of Smith's habits, such as wanting to make use of the classic "Crossing the T" tactic.
- The Cuckoolander Was Right: Of course since Captain Salty presents the "meta" or "high skill level" way of playing the game, he tends to be right.
- Insane Troll Logic: How do signal flags grant all those bonuses such as preventing magazine detonation or boosting the ship's top speed? "Magic".note
- Lampshade Hanging: Rather common with the two, given some of the game's nature.
- Copious amounts of a certain brand of lubricant and anti-corrosion oil that comes in blue and yellow cans are implied to be the secret behind how the "Expert Marksman" Captain's skill improves main battery turret traverse speeds
- One part of the ship on fire? Ah no need to worry about it. Two or more? Fine, deploy the Damage Control Party.
Ch. Eng. Joslyn
A supporting character that manages all the repair and resupply details back at the port.- The Engineer: Besides the fact that her rank and role is Chief Engineer, Joslyn more than qualifies for the title given she's able to get any ship salvaged, repaired, and operational again within minutes after a battle.
Ship Girl Monaghan #1287 & Ship Girl Clemson #2441
Introduced as dedicated rivals to the main characters of Naval Nonsense.- Noodle Incident: Apparently, Monaghan is the sworn mortal enemy of McGraw whose grudge is so black that she would rather die than make peace. As evidenced by Monaghan RAGING at the mere thought of talking to McGraw when Joslyn suggests doing so. Its hinted that its partly related to McGraw switching the settings for announcer voice when Monaghan first appeared from a ship-girl voice back to standard to get rid of her.
- Troll: Monaghan really enjoys pushing all of Salty McGraw's Beserk Buttons.
Ship Girl Z-39 #682 and Ship Girl Ernst Gaede #4323
Introduced in the spin-off "Fune no Gaiden" as apparent stand-ins for when the main characters are absent.-
Fake Nationality: Ernst Gaede is a German shipgirl who is from...Oregon. - Foil: To Capt. McGraw and Ensign Smith, with their behavior split and mixed between the two. Ernst Gaede is really into role-playing and using tactics questionable in effectiveness for the game like Tate. And Monaghan's more outlandish/exotic camo choices, such as a Space Gearing causes Gaede to become furious in rage much like McGraw. Z-39 however has all of McGraw's laid back attitude taken to the extreme regarding everything, as well as his knowledge of tactics in game.
Guests from Arpeggio of Blue Steel
Kirishima (Human)/ Kirishima (Teddy Bear)
Captain of the ARP Kirishima which was available for the 2016 Arpeggio of Blue Steel Special Event. Kirishima is also the name of a Teddy Bear.- Killer Teddy Bear: A Teddy Bear in command of a Battleship is something that should never be taken lightly.
- Promoted to Playable: The Teddy Bear that contains the Union Core of the Kirishima was available to be earned as a Captain.

The Commanders and Their Ships
- Mechanically Unusual Class: All of the commanders and their ships have the ability to use a destroyer's speed boost and a battleship's self repair ability, but unlike both can do so indefinitely. See their respective sheets for additional information.
- Purposely Overpowered: All ships for this event not only have significantly higher than normal health, but also speed boosts and self repairs, which can be used indefinitely, allowing them to heal back up to whole given the chance. This is in addition to being able to unleash obscene amounts of damage - getting more than 500,000 points of damage is entirely possible in these maps. Of course, not only do they have to fight at least fifteen other people with the same type of ships, but also a massive number of Sea MonsterS that could easily shrug off normal amounts of damage.
Katrina Hesh Gareth
Commander of Valkyrie and representative of the Seatek Corporation for the 2020 Big Hunt Halloween Event.- Life Drain: Can gain the vampirism buff, allowing her to drain health from enemies equal to the amount of damage her main batteries inflict on her foes.
- Mechanically Unusual Class: Valkyrie is the most Downplayed version of the three in this regard - she has an infinite use self repair power, as well infinite uses of a speed boost consumable, but both still have a cooldown. Additionally, she can swap out her main batteries for mortar shells, which can do Area of Effect high explosive damage.
Ich-Theo Billy
Representative of the Pelamida Corporation and Commander of Gale.- Mechanically Unusual Class: Gale lacks any main batteries, instead having access to a quartet of torpedo launchers for primary attacks. Additionally, the ship has a set of 'charges' that are split between a self repair powerup, reload speed boost, and speed boost. Pressing their key bindings diverts charges to one of the abilities at the expense of the others.
Delphius Ora-cle
Representative of the Phobos Corporation and Commander of Heracles.- Mechanically Unusual Class: Heracles uses Laser Cannons as its primary armaments, which have a delay before firing, but have pinpoint accuracy and inflict more damage the more of the beams hit the target. The can be switched out for wave cannons, which have the ability to destroy torpedoes. His abilities, meanwhile, give the entire division buffs, like enhanced turning speed.
