Hat Films

A trio of gamers and freelance trailer makers (Ross Hornby/Djh3max, Alex Smith/Alsmiffy and Chris Trott/Trottimus). Have their own trope page here.

Area 11

Sparkles* and Parv are both part of the Yogscast (although Sparkles* is a freelance worker), and their entries can be found on that character sheet along with Kogie's and Leo's. The band were registered under the Yogscast Studios label, but have since left.

Orjan Aarvik (Teutron)

A Norwegian artist for the Yogscast that serves as lead artist. Designed many of the avatars for the Yogscast to begin with, but this is no longer his main role.

• The Comically Serious: Compared to many other members of the Yogscast, Teutron is less of an outright clown.

Nina-Serena (Uni)

One of the current artists for the Yogscast who took over most of Teutron's roles after he left in 2015. She has a YouTube channel, but doesn't upload any videos.

• Drama Queen: She's quite prone to histrionics when she's under stress.
• Genki Girl: Nina is usually very enthusiastic and energetic.
• Girly Girl with a Tomboy Streak
• Jive Turkey: She's very much in-touch with modern trends and Internet slang, often exclaiming "Yas!" when she's happy about something.
• Large Ham: Whenever she goes into histrionics. Which is to say, quite often.
• Otaku: She really loves anime and manga, especially One Piece.
• Prone to Tears: Nina is very emotional and cries easily, especially when she's happy.

Anya Ferris (MintyMinute)

The former Administration Coordinator at the Yogscast. She was known for her work organizing and managing the Yogscast Website and their forums. On December 18, 2015, Minty left the Yogscast mainly due to internal changes within the company.

Sam Gibbs

Sam Gibbs is an audio engineer at Yogtowers and the essential "apprentice" of Sparkles*.

• Deadpan Snarker: While he's a nice guy and rarely onscreen, a good eighty per cent of what comes out his mouth is sarcasm.
• The Gadfly: He ended up trolling Parv by making it look like he had died, spawning the now infamous meme.
• Gentle Giant: He's nearly as tall as Strippin, but is a very mellow individual.
• Mission Control: Essentially serves as this for the livestreams.
• Passing the Torch: Sparkles* taught him to be his successor at Yogtowers, a task Sam has taken to like a duck to water.
• The Quiet One: Justified for the most part when the livestreams are happening, since his job is to keep things running while the others take the spotlight.
• The Sixth Ranger: While for the most part he serves as the audio engineer for Yogtowers, he essentially serves as this to the Dream Team, joining in for rounds of Just Dance or Super Smash Bros.. He was also on the team that fought against Lewis, Sjin and Hat Films for Lucky Block.

Tom Clark/ Angor

Tom Clark, aka Angor, is a producer for the Yogscast. He frequently join the content creators for a number of videos and streams, and as of 2016, has his own channel.

• Ascended Extra: Tom originally worked on editing, story, and writing, but began appearing in videos more frequently around 2015, usually refereed to as "Tom for the office" at the time. He has since become a regular fixture in streams and videos, as well as starting his own Youtube and Twitch channels under the name AngoryTom. He also played some roles like the bear in the Don't Starve challenge and served as Mission Control for "Lucky Walls".
• Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Considered one of their best players in TTT due to his good aim, mastery of evasive tactics, and it being really hard to tell when he's lying. That said he also doesn't take things overly seriously, and is quite prone to prioritize a good joke over actually winning the game.
  So the only way to beat Lewis... is to meet him in the afterlife! (jumps to his death)
• Deadpan Snarker: Tom's laid-back attitude means that his humour is more subtle than the other players.
• Mission Control: Served as the "referee" for "Lucky Walls", a role that usually goes to Ridgedog.
• One-Steve Limit: Averted. Not only are there four Toms in the Yogscast, but Sparkles* has a real name that is precisely one letter off. This has led to fan confusion.
• The Quiet One: Played with. Tom talk a pretty normal amount, but doesn't tend to scream and shout as much, which can result in fading in the background a bit.
• Those Two Guys: Frequently appears with Ben Edgar. The two knew one another before the Yogscast, worked together behind the scenes a lot and now are by far the most common content partner for one another. In TTT sessions they've been paired as "Sharky and Palp" based on their avatars, and have a "Tom & Ben" Youtube channel.
• Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: Played straight in his Cities: Skylines series where he keeps getting distracted from what he was originally doing. This side of him has been dubbed "Captain Distracto" and is announced every time he is distracted by a large spinning capital "D".

Ben Edgar (Bedgar)

Ben is one of Yogscast's administrators, dealing with "stats and things". Originally he worked behind the scenes, but has gotten increasingly involved in Trouble In Terrorist Town, GTA, and Civilization streams, and is one half of the hosts of the "Lewis and Ben Save the World" channel.

• Ascended Extra: Much like Tom Angor, went from primarily behind the scenes work to regularly appearing in videos, around the same time as well.
• Butt-Monkey: In TTT sessions, anyone who acquires a harpoon will, it is all but guaranteed, attempt to use it to kill poor Ben. Should everyone acquire one, Ben will immediately seek whatever cover he can find.
• Instant Fan Club: Intermittently has a legion of fans with usernames like "Ben's Father", "Ben's Grandfather", "Ben's Cousin", etc. The Yogs tend to refer to the group as "The Ben Cult".
• Threatening Shark: Averted. His Gmod avatar is indeed a shark, but the original model was "Left Shark" and the updated model is a similarly cartoony and goofy shark. Combined with Ben's voice and mannerisms, it's unlikely anyone finds it threatening.
• Those Two Guys: With Tom Angor. The pair are longtime friends who worked together behind the scenes a lot and now are by far the most common content partner for one another. In TTT sessions they've been paired as "Sharky and Palp" based on their avatars, and have a "Tom & Ben" Youtube channel.

Harry Marshall (VeteranHarry)

Otherwise known as Barry. He is an artist and editor for the Yogscast, and while he doesn't have a channel, he frequently appears in video and streams, like Tom Clark. He runs a Grand Theft Auto V stream with Sjin, Tom and later Simon called the Chilluminati stream, as well as an Edge of the Empire stream with that same crew, as well as Lewis, titled YogsQuest Live (formerly Space Tossers, currently on hiatus).

• The Gadfly: Very much so, particularly when playing with the main Yogs.
• Phrase Catcher: "BARRY BOYS!" Spawned from his Dota 2 streams with Pyrion.
• Tagalong Kid: Is the youngest member of the Yogscast as a whole, and it shows.

Yogscast IRL — Not working at Yogtowers

Hannah Rutherford (Lomadia)

Now has her own page.

Chris Lovasz (Sips)

Now has his own page.

Joakim Hellstrand (Rythian)

Now has his own page.

Liam MacKay (Nilesy)

Joined the Yogscast YouTube family in July 2012. Like InTheLittleWood above, he had his own YouTube channel before he joined the Yogscast family. Currently, Nilesy does not post videos to YouTube with his last video being posted in 2015, however he regularly streams live on his Twitch channel.

---

• Big Damn Heroes: When Kim, Hannah and Simon's stream went down, Nilesy took over and managed to raise over $12,000 in about five minutes.
• Butt-Monkey: Nothing seems to go right for Nilesy in Tekkit.
  Nilesy: You win some, you lose some - or if you're Nilesy, you win some and lose them all! (forced laughter)
• Catchphrase: "How's your day been?"
• Chekhov's Skill:
  • Mentions from time to time that his day job is working in a call center. This actually comes in handy when he plays I Get This Call Every Day, which is about working in a call center. Nilesy becomes possibly the first Lets Player on Youtube to ace it on his first try. For comparison, when Simon and Lewis try it, Simon ends up ragequitting after being fired three times, leaving Lewis to awkwardly end the video by himself.
  • His call center experience also made him much more competent at Papers, Please than Lewis and Simon's, and Sips' attempts.
• Distressed Dude: With Hannah as the Action Girl in their Tekkit Let's Play.
• Identical Stranger: Has been compared in terms of looks to both Lewis and Snape.
• Kindhearted Cat Lover: He loves his cat, and will even pause a Let's Play to pet it.
• Screams Like a Little Girl: His reaction to quite a few of the games he plays.
• Took a Level in Badass:
  • In his video of Haunt, he displays no signs of fear like he did in any of the previous horror games he played, instead sounding annoyed at the monster. There are a couple of moments where he actually charges at the monster!
  • This also shows during his one off video of Five Nights at Freddy's. Rather than being scared like many other youtubers, he seems more nonplussed than anything, merely muttering "oh, he got me" when he fails.
  • His learning of the art of Thaumcraft is gradually developing into this, too.

Zoey Proasheck

Now has her own page.

Fionn Riches

Zoey's partner and regular collaborator. Officially joined at the start of August 2019.

• Badass Cape: Reportedly wore one when they and Zoey went to the LGBT+ pride parade. Fittingly, it was painted in the colours of the rainbow.
• Catchphrase: "Hey good lookins, what's cookins?"
• Jack of All Trades: They're currently a carvery chef, but they dabbled in blacksmithing and lumberjacking.
• Sir Swears-a-Lot: Compared to Zoey, who occasionally has to bleep them out when they let one slip. When Zoey lifts the swearing ban during their Christmas late night stream, Fionn just lets them fly.

Rick van Laanen (Zylus)

A member of the Yogscast that was a long-time friend for many years, before finally joining in July 2013.

• Catchphrase: "Sup guysh, itsh Zylush here..."
• Funny Foreigner: He behaves this way on-camera, but it's mostly an act and most of his fellow members are as crazy as he is.
• Invincible Hero: As the detective in Trouble in Terrorist Town, he never loses, and now "100% Detective win rate" is a Running Gag. Averted: he finally lost his win rate in this video (around 14:03) after refusing to save a trapped Duncan from a C4 and consequently getting double-teamed by the traitors. And the round's canon! (for now)
• Nice Guy: Zylus doesn't seem to have a mean bone in his body, and always goes all-out during the charity livestreams.
• Refusal of the Call: He rejected the initial offer to join the Yogscast on the grounds that he was too young. He eventually joined when older.
• Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: To Simon during the Trouble in Terrorist Town livestreams. The two spent their time snarking back and forth, and RDMing one another, with Simon claiming that Zylus was on his "shit list".

William Strife

A tutorial expert, video editor and new member of the Yogscast. Joined with his channel in late 2013 and has his own page.

Toby Cottrell (SoTotallyToby)

Best known as the co-op partner of InTheLittleWood, Toby already had his own page before he joined the Yogscast in February 2014. See his own page for details.

Keith Steinbach (BebopVox)

A prominent youtuber who runs The Minecraft Monday Show, BebopVox officially joined the Yogscast in January 2014. He is a former crew chief of the United States Air Force, having recently left to make videos full-time.

Ted (Pyrion Flax)

A fellow Polaris member that joined the Yogscast in 2014.

• Cowboy Cop: Pyrion has a reputation in Trouble in Terrorist Town for shooting people without reason as the detective.
• Crossover: Despite not being in the Yogscast when he first played Civ, he joined them for the session and eventually dropped out when eliminated.
• Deadpan Snarker: Around the others during Civ. He points out the mentality of the others when they start complaining about Pyrion dominating the game, even though they'd tried getting him to do that so Lewis wouldn't win.
• The Dreaded: In Civ. When you can be badass enough to give the resident chessmaster an excuse to put you in his sights first, you indeed count.
• Hypocritical Humour: As the detective in Trouble in Terrorist Town, Pyrion has a tendency to RDM a lot of innocent players. He later gets angry when Sjin shoots him for no reason and asks what kind of detective would do that.
  Sjin: The Pyrion kind.
• Only Sane Man: See Deadpan Snarker.

FyreUK

FyreUK is the youtube channel of Matthew Needler and Phil Southam (more commonly known as Matt and Phil), co-founders of the Minecraft build team Fyre. Whilst their channel maintains a focus on Minecraft timelapse builds, they have also released a number of Let's Play series, and prior to joining the Yogscast created the adventure map for Hat Films' series An Epic Hatventure.

Wilsonator

Wilsonator is a new member joining only in September 2018 and participated in the jingle jam 2018

Non-Yogscast Associates

There are many individuals currently playing on the Yogscast Complete Official Server (and other adventures) who, while not considered paid members of the Yogscast, do work on the servers or as characters / contributors for other members series'.

Kirin Dave

Primary admin of the current server, has several series of his own, including Minecraft: The Hard Way and Dave & Su play Minecraft, with his IRL wife, Su. See his own page for details.

Lying In Bed Mon

Followed through to the Yogscast Complete server from the Chaosville Server wherein his series theme was the recreation of classic Horror Movie settings. His primary series on the Yogscast Complete Server takes this theme up a rather disturbing notch by focussing on the recreation of a horror antagonist. See his own page for details.

Paprika Su

Helps Kirin Dave out in his Minecraft series.

• Beware the Quiet Ones: Kirin Dave notes that you do not want to see Su when she's angry...
• Only Sane Man: Tends to behave more rationally than the others.

Dave Bagnall (DaveChaos)

A long-time friend of the group who joined them officially in July 2013. According to his Twitter, he left in January 2016.

• Adventurer Outfit: His Minecraft skin is obviously based off Indiana Jones (he even confirmed this during a Q and A at a gaming festival).
• Companion Cube: Wilson in the Castaway and Survival Island playthroughs is this to Dave.
• The Quiet One: When he joined the Prop Hunt tournament on Sips' channel, he didn't say as much compared to the others. Granted, he was on with people like Sjin and Simon.
• Troll: Trolled Simon and Lewis in the Yoglympics map when he put a button labelled to go up into the Dodgit event that actually threw Simon and Lewis down into a pit. He then proceeded to try and blow up the winner's podium with Lewis and Simon on it after his "special message" on the wall from the map makers (BOOM!), but just missed them and had to flee so Simon wouldn't 'spleef' him to death.

Benji

Strippin's friend and associate in Rail Bros and Cornerstone. Has his own channel which he updates semi-regularly.

• Atrocious Alias: His Minecraft name was "Benjizm" for a while, leading to endless jokes about semen. He eventually renamed himself "King Bendrick".
• Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: He's a fairly decent Minecraft player when push comes to shove.
• Laser-Guided Amnesia: After Duncan and Sjin's Tekkit War, he took a serious blow to the head and forgot everything he knew about RailCraft. Strippin then had to teach him it again.
• Once Done, Never Forgotten: Seemingly nobody refers to him by his new name "King Bendrick", instead referring to him as "Benjizm".
• Snark-to-Snark Combat: Typically snarks with Strippin.
• Too Dumb to Live: After proposing the treehouse, guess who is the first to fall off?
• Vitriolic Best Buds: With

Sam Thorne (Strippin)

A former member of the Yogscast who was present from late 2012 until December 2015. He eventually left on good terms, and may appear in the future. Now has his own page.

Daltos

Daltos, real name Nicholas Buccino, is a friend of the Yogscast and Zylus who lives in America. Mostly appearing in Zylus' series, he also appeared during the Trouble in Terrorist Town livestream.

• Deadpan Snarker: He has a fairly dry wit, although he doesn't talk as much.
• Mistaken Identity: Despite having played World of Warcraft with the Yogs back in the day, Simon has trouble remembering who Daltos was and mistakes him for someone else in their own guild.
• The Quiet One: Compared to other players, Daltos is fairly quiet and not too hammy. Of course, given that he was competing with Duncan, Simon and Lewis, this is all relative.

Dead Workers Party

Dead Workers Party is the former title of duo Brent Copeland and Eric Fullerton, who during their brief membership rebranded to YOGSCAST Brent & Eric. They are most famously known as creators and co-hosts of The Shaft podcast. It was announced that they joined the Yogscast in February 2014, but they left the group on good terms in September due to real-life issues.

Steven Goates (Ridgedog)

The creation manager and producer for the Yogscast. Joined the team January 2012. He is also the leader of The Voxel Box. He officially left the Yogscast in January 2016 for reasons unknown. Although at the time it was stated he was on good terms with the crew, he insulted them several times on his streams a while afterwards.

---

• Alcohol-Induced Idiocy: He infamously got drunk during a stream with Bebop and ended up having to leave because he fell asleep, which resulted in the lowest donation total throughout the whole of 2014. This directly got him Kicked Upstairs for the last year of his tenure.
• Badass Longcoat: His Minecraft avatar sports an elegant one. He once dressed up as said avatar too.
• Cheaters Never Prosper: In Voltz, he spawns in a lot of things that he logically should not be able to have in the game, even with the mods installed. Later, his base gets destroyed and Simon, Lewis and Duncan steal a lot of his loot, essentially rendering him a nonentity.
• Cloud Cuckoolander: As a cursory glance at his youtube page will reveal, he seems a bit nutty.
• Demoted to Extra: Before eventually leaving Ridge noticeably took part in gradually fewer things, with Angor taking his place as Game Master for many activities.
• Final Boss: For Lewis, Simon and Duncan in Voltz.
• For Halloween, I Am Going as Myself: Turns up to Minecon 2013 wearing his full Minecraft costume. Along with his girlfriend, in similar costume. Additional badass must be implied as Minecon was in Florida that year and it was really warm.
• Game Master: In most of the Yogscast PvP matches.
• Hidden Villain: Seems to become one in Voltz. Lewis, Duncan and Simon were targeting Sips to begin with, believing him to be the enemy. However instead Ridge was the first to attack, sending two missiles after their base and doing extremely well.
• Hyper-Competent Sidekick: Whenever he teams up with Sips and Sjin.
• Mad Scientist: So much so that Yoglabs is described as being more moral than him, in Voltz.
• More Dakka: His Voltz base is filled with auto-turrets.
• Phrase Catcher: "A wild Ridgedog appears!"
• Physical God: A popular fan theory claims that he is this in the Minecraft Series.
• Troll: Sometimes implements his godly powers to mess with other players, such as when he uses invisibility to troll Nilesy and Panda in The Walls. Particularly in Voltz.

John Cochrane (HybridPanda)

A former Machinima director who was part of the Yogscast from January 2013 until July 2016, Panda is a frequent co-op partner of Nilesy's and makes several Let's Play series of his own.

---

• Butt-Monkey: Often ends up the butt of many jokes.
• Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: He won the first Skyblock War episode.
• Cruel Player-Character God: In the Sims. Two words: Baby cave.
• Do Not Go Gentle: Of a sort. When it became apparent he was going to lose in his playthrough of XCOM: Enemy Within, he decided to attack the EXALT base using his few remaining squaddies. It goes as well as one would expect.
• General Failure: His XCOM playthrough is both marvellous and painful to behold.
• Giving the Sword to a Noob: One XCOM video has him give his only psi-armor, an armor that increases a psionic soldier's abilities as well as being the only armor capable of moving the plot to the final mission, to Brain Shooter, a low level sniper with only a basic Psi-attack, as opposed to Domon8, a fully specialized psionic Col. Heavy. Overlaps with General Failure, as he had no idea what caused the game to progress.
• Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: Along with So Totally Toby, he is perhaps one of the least threatening drug runners ever.
• Naïve Newcomer: Joins Kim in being one of the last Yogscast members to join the Yogcraft server, although he has played it somewhat more regularly than she did, and so isn't entirely lost.

Yohi, Lover of Weed

A guild-mate of Simon and Lewis, he has appeared in several episodes of The YoGPoD.

• Out of Focus: Compare the early days when Yohi used to appear in the Yogpod, and now rarely appears at all.
• What Happened to the Mouse?: Yohi pretty much dropped off the face of the earth after his Yog Pod appearances and has no presence online under his Yogs aliases. The last time anyone mentioned being in contact with him was Hannah around 2015, and Lewis implied in a later video he might even be in jail.

Minecraft/Shadow of Israphel

For characters associated with Shadow of Israphel, go here. For characters associated with YogLabs, go here.

Sjin's Farm

Strawfingers

An animated and very malevolent scarecrow that appears in Sjin's "Feed the World" series. He is the primary antagonist, brought to life seemingly hundreds of years ago.

• Animate Inanimate Object: An animated scarecrow.
• Arch-Enemy: Given how he's the Big Bad for the series, Sjin has taken his presence very badly and made it a priority (admittedly not the highest one) to take him down.
• Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: He kidnapped Kim, took her to the Nether and fed her chicken (which Kim likes, not being a vegetarian), and then stole Sjin's textures.
• A Wizard Did It: Supposedly how he came to life in the first place.
• Bait the Dog: After helping Abel farm his crops, he murders his parents.
• Big Bad: For Sjin's series; any threats beforehand were either from mobs (which aren't actively malevolent) or from other players (who also aren't actively malevolent or very dangerous for that matter). Strawfingers is both actively malevolent and dangerous.
• Cerebus Retcon: A lot of Strawfingers' behaviour and nature was initially comedic, then we find out in Abel's flashback why he's like that, and it stops being funny.
• Combat Pragmatist: His strategy upon encountering Sjin in the Twilight Forest is to camp by a portal he had already used and then start shooting at him with a machine gun.
• Dark Is Evil: Hangs around in the Nether, builds with darker bricks, dressed in black.
• The Dreaded: After Sjin finds out the truth about him, he doesn't want to go anywhere near him and puts off confronting him.
• Death Is Cheap: Sjin and Jake the Dog kill him in the Twilight Forest, but Sjin doubts he's gone for good.
• Evil Laugh: In the flashback to Abel's story. It's the only thing he has ever "said" himself.
• Evil Tower of Ominousness: He erects one in the Nether, which he uses to keep Kim prisoner. Later seen spying on Sjin on the top of another, though Sjin seems oddly oblivious to it, either because he built it for aesthetic reasons or doesn't want to go near it.
• Expy: He seems to be the Feed The World / Sjin's Farm version of Israphel, being a kidnapping serial killer with a habit of troubling the protagonists, who's also linked to an old and dark entity and isn't played for laughs. This had led to people speculating that the two are either linked or the same person.
• For the Evulz: He doesn't really seem to have much in terms of a motive for targeting Sjin. Even when his motive is revealed, his attacks on Sjin still don't really serve or further his plan, like he does it out of nothing other than being a sadistic asshole.
  • It's also the motive for killing Abel's parents.
• Funny Background Event: In one of the introductions, it is possible to see him get up and walk away from his post.
• Karma Houdini: With the Heartbleed patch, most of Sjin's animals no longer exist. Sjin's confirmed that Strawfingers has not had the same fate.
• Kick the Dog: In a past backstory, it's revealed (or at least heavily implied that he's responsible) that shortly after helping Abel farm his crops, he brutally murdered his parents.
• Kick The Son Of A Bitch: In "Sjin's Farm", it's revealed that he murdered _Zips, who was a mentally unstable villain, kidnapper and Mad Bomber.
• Kill It with Fire: Seemingly the only way to make sure he's Killed Off for Real is to burn his head with either fire or lava, although just how weak he is to it remains to be seen, given how he spent some time in the Nether with seemingly no problems.
• Knight of Cerebus: It turns out he's a serial killer who's been doing his thing for a very long time, and also that he plans to blow up Sjin's farm plus all his guests.
• Mad Bomber: His plan overall is to destroy the Sjindig with mountains of TNT and a nuke.
• Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: Strawfingers is a Scary Scarecrow animated by magic, who also enjoys blowing things up or shooting them.
• Not-So-Harmless Villain: Meeting him in the present, he hasn't done that much of real damage. However, in the past he supposedly murdered Abel's parents for fun and in the present he's secretly planning to bomb Sjin's Sjindig with a nuke and some TNT. After this revelation, he stops being played for laughs.
• Obviously Evil: Looking at his skin makes it obvious that he isn't good.
• Poke the Poodle: He stole Sjin's texture pack. Not exactly a heinous crime.
• Psychotic Smirk or Slasher Smile: His skin has one of these as a default expression.
• Really 700 Years Old: Strawfingers has been doing his thing since Abel's time at least. That makes him potentially hundreds of years old.
• Scary Scarecrows: He resides in a fortress he built in the Nether and kidnaps people. Justified Trope, as he was meant to be used by Sjin to scare away birds (read: serve as an aesthetic decoration as birds don't exist in Feed the Beast with the exception of vanilla chickens and Twilight Forest penguins, neither of which can threaten crops).
• Serial Killer: What he turns out to be. It's probable that Abel's parents were far from his first victims, given how the Wizard seems to be behaving.
• Split Personality: Due to certain coincidences and holes in her backstory, a lot of fans believe that Kim is in fact the very Strawfingers who allegedly Kimnapped her.
• Stalker without a Crush: To Sjin. Possibly a Stalker with a Crush to Kim.
• The Voiceless: He hasn't said a word, either in chat or with one of the Yogscast pretending to be him, though he leaves notes to get past this. He does have an Evil Laugh in Abel's flashback.
• Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: He sure is taking his sweet time with his plan to bomb the Sjindig. Averted in his confrontation with Sjin in the Twilight Forest, in which he starts shooting Sjin with a machine gun.
• Your Soul Is Mine!: How he kills _Zips.

Abel

A farmer who left a journal regarding his mysterious past and his encounters with an animated scarecrow, strongly implied to be Strawfingers.

• The Atoner: For letting his parents die.
• Break the Cutie: He goes adventuring and returns to find that Strawfingers murdered his parents for the hell of it.
• Horrible Judge of Character: Why he trusted the Wizard is unknown. The man practically gloated.
• I Just Want to Be Badass: Why he eventually goes off adventuring.
• Parents as People: His are described as pleasant and well-meaning, but he feels confined by them and wants to break out.
• Posthumous Character: Possibly. However old the diary is, it's not recently written, implying he's passed on.
• Took a Level in Badass: Eventually returns to his home a hardened warrior.

Unnamed Wizard

A wizard who is seemingly the villain for Sjin's Farm.

• Beard of Evil: Has one on his skin.
• Evil Sorcerer: What he is.
• Faux Affably Evil: Never rude, but really sadistic.
• No Name Given: Only known as a wizard.
• Posthumous Character: Possibly. However old Abel's diary is, it's not recently written. While magic could theoretically be keeping him alive, it's likely that he's passed on.

Animals

The various denizens of Sjin's farm.

• Badass Adorable: Jake the Dog, being a tamed wolf. He even saved Sjin from Strawfingers and his machine gun at one point.
• Big Damn Heroes: Jake the Dog randomly appears in the Twilight Forest to save Sjin from Strawfingers and his machine gun. Lampshaded by Sjin who has no idea as to how he got there.
• Butt-Monkey/ The Chew Toy: Bessie the Cow, who's been stuck in a milk facility to produce countless buckets worth of milk and has literally no space to move around whatsoever.
• Damsel in Distress: Charlotte, Sjin's tamed cat, goes missing for a few episodes. Sjin eventually finds her after going on a rescue mission, although she's seemingly unharmed when he brings her home.

Unmarked Moon Quest and Galacticraft spoilers

_Zips

Seemingly a new member of Sipsco during the Sipsco Space Program and Sjintech Space Rescue series and a Walking Spoiler. Voiced by Angor, aka Tom Clark.

• Accent Upon The Wrong Syllable: Keeps pronouncing Sjin's name wrong, as SI-JIN. While Sjin pronounces it as S-gin, and the others pronounce it as "Shin". It's the most obvious clue that Sips_ is missing.
• Axe-Crazy: Really enjoys blowing up stuff, and people.
• Bald of Evil: His skin seems to take inspiration from how Sips looks in real life.
• Batman Can Breathe in Space: He seems to think he can, owing to him trying to nerdpole up with some gravel and no oxygen gear. Obviously, he can't.
• Beware the Silly Ones: In spite of his dumb mannerisms, he's one hell of an explosives expert.
• Big Bad / Arc Villain: For the series. He's the reason Sips is on the moon.
• Bus Crash: Strawfingers kills him offscreen and removes his soul.
• Cloud Cuckoolander: He's not entirely all there.
• Deader than Dead: While he's come back from at least two deaths, it would appear that having his soul sucked out is more than enough to finish him off.
• Dumb Muscle: Most of his information on Sipsco is completely false, though in spite of this he's very good with TNT.
• Fake Nationality: In-Universe. Whoever voices him tries doing a Canadian accent and cannot pull it off at all.
• Hypocritical Humour: Accuses Sjin of not being the real Si-jin (or Zijin) when he's obviously not the real Sips.
• Killed Off for Real: Had his soul sucked out by Strawfingers at some point after blowing up Sips and Sjin's base on Slime Island
• Laughably Evil: He fits right in with the whole Sipsco recruitment policy, being almost amoral and hilarious(ly dumb in his case). Even after his Face–Heel Turn his various quirks are funny enough to keep him memorable.
• Literal-Minded: He's told by Sjin to get down from the pile of gravel he's trying to nerdpole to the moon with. He literally goes straight down by walking or jumping off to his death.
• The Load: Zig-Zagged Trope before his Face–Heel Turn. He's competent enough to help Sjin do various things, but not competent enough to take the initiative.
• Mad Bomber: Blows up Sips and Sjin's base on Slime Island with a lot of TNT.
• Paper-Thin Disguise: The reason it doesn't get properly noticed till the start of Sjintech Space Rescue is Rule of Funny.
• There Is No Kill Like Overkill: See Mad Bomber.
• Too Dumb to Live: Tried nerdpoling into space (by piling up gravel) without any oxygen equipment. Sjin tells him to get down and he decides to jump from the stack of gravel directly down to Slime Island, dying from the fall.
• Walking Spoiler: In terms of his identity and appearance.
