This page lists all characters in ''Cyberdimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online'', the sixth SpinOff game of the Neptunia series, and the tropes associated with them. Tropes specific to their portrayal in the other games of the series belong on the pages for those games. Currently under heavy construction.

'''Beware of unmarked spoilers!'''

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:[=CPU=]s]]
!!General CPU Tropes
* BadassCrew: The main four [=CPU=]s are back in the forefront again, and fighting as one party in this game.
* MoeAnthropomorphism: Of the current generation of consoles.
* PhysicalGoddess: {{Downplayed}}. They've been physically living in the world for quite some time now, though it may be played straighter than usual considering the game they are playing now.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: They've been around for quite some time now, though the exact number of years is never made clear. ''VideoGame/MegadimensionNeptuniaVII'' reveals that [[spoiler: Neptune and Nepgear, at least, are less than a human lifetime old, as a {{Muggle}} who was a young boy during Uzume's rule is still alive, albeit as an old man]].
* TrueCompanions: Though it does veer on the side of VitriolicBestBuds quite a lot, the four [=CPU=]s have long since passed the time they were seriously hostile to one another.

!!Neptune (Purple Heart)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/20161027_4goddessesonline_04.jpg]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RieTanaka (Japanese), Creator/MelissaFahn (English)

Planeptune's patron CPU and the self-proclaimed "Main Character of Main Characters". Unusually bright and cheerful, and the most optimistic of the four goddesses. She has an odd trait that allows her to break apart any visage of seriousness in a scene or relieve the tension with little issue. In this game she has chosen to be of the Holy Knight class, which makes sense considering her high opinion of herself, and her general behavior throughout the series.

As Purple Heart she is much more calm and collected compared to her normal state, however she still maintains the carefree personality.
----
* BrilliantButLazy: Throughout the series she has had brief moments that make it clear she is more intelligent and thoughtful than her usual attitude makes her appear. But generally her lazy personality makes such moments rare and far between.
* CombatMedic: Her class gives her access to healing skills, while also letting her dish out quite a bit of damage.
* GenkiGirl: Her human form acts like this, though she can be more subdued when she wants to be.
* HeroesPreferSwords: As expected of the one who openly declares herself the main character, she still sticks with a class that prefers swords.
* JackOfAllTrades: Her class is noted to be skilled in pretty much everything combat wise.
* LadyOfWar: Purple Heart's personality has shades of this.
* MagicKnight: Can use magic alongside her physical fighting skills.
* PurpleIsPowerful: Always had an emphasis on physical strength.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Pudding of course. [[spoiler:She then shares one to Purple Heart in-game and her goddess self starts craving for more.]]
* WhiteMagic

!!Noire (Black Heart)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AsamiImai (Japanese), Creator/EricaMendez (English)

Lastation's patron CPU and the one gifted with the unflattering nickname of "Lonely Heart" by Neptune. She has a very diligent, if elitist, nature and she tries to do everything by herself. Considered a lonely person due to her {{Tsundere}} personality, but the fact she often plays with the rest of the [=CPU=]s means she isn't actually that much of a loner. In this game she is a spear-wielding Dark Knight, who specializes in close range combat with an emphasis on DPS.
----
* MagicallyIneptFighter: One of the two playable characters that don't have elemental or magic based skills.

!!Blanc (White Heart)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanaAsumi (Japanese), Creator/WendeeLee (English)

Lowee's patron CPU, on the surface she appears calm and collected at all times, however she actually has quite the temper and one that is very easy to set off. Loves to read and secretly writes in her spare time (though her attempts at selling her work don't go quite well), considers herself the most intelligent of the four goddesses. She's playing this game mostly for inspiration for her own writing, and has taken up the Cleric Class which specializes in healing and supporting the party.

As White Heart her inward temper problems come to the forefront, and she becomes ferocious in both speech and actions.
----
* ACupAngst: Admits to an NPC that she made her avatar's chest slightly larger than her real self, and that she would have gone much bigger if it didn't mean getting made fun of by the other goddesses.
* WhiteMage: Starts out as one, but quickly becomes...
** TheRedMage: Uses both healing/support spells (such as buffing team offense or defense) and elemental spells (of the [[KillItWithFire fire]], [[KillItWithIce ice]], [[ShockAndAwe lightning]], and [[RazorWind wind]] varieties).

!!Vert (Green Heart)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RinaSato (Japanese), Creator/CarrieKeranen (English)

Leanbox's patron CPU and arguably the most mature of the bunch, though she certainly has her moments. Is the eldest looking of the group, and gives off an aura of a big sister to the rest. Though this ironically fuels her own sorrow at not having a little sister like the rest do, and thus she attempts to make one out of any cute girl she takes a liking to. Now that she is in her favorite online game, she is secretly aiming to usurp the role of main character. In this game she is an Enchanter, a hybrid class letting her fight while also providing heals and buffs for the party.

As Green Heart her personality doesn't differ all too much, though she is a bit less forgiving in that form.
----
* BridalCarry: Gives one to Blanc in a cutscene, who ends up embarrassed by it.
* FlechetteStorm: Her [[LimitBreak Awakening]] SpecialAttack showers the area in front of her with magical spearlike projectiles. Think "[[Franchise/{{Nasuverse}} Gate of Babylon]]".
* RoyalRapier: Uses this as her main weapon for the Enchanter class, which might be a not-so-subtle way of [[HeroesPreferSwords showing she's the star of this spin-off]].
* SpellBlade: She has spells to enhance the team's weapons with elemental damages.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:CPU Candidates]]
!!General CPU Candidate Tropes
* MoeAnthropomorphism: Of gaming handheld devices.

!!Nepgear (Purple Sister)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuiHorie (Japanese), Creator/ChristineMarieCabanos (English)

Planeptune's CPU Candidate, and Neptune's younger sister, also happens to be a former protagonist which tends to get her mercilessly teased more often than not. She is an {{Otaku}} for anything mechanical, though she has a particular fondness for mechs, a very dependable person and often mistaken for the *older* sister. In contrast to her older sister who drags everyone else along for the ride, she prefers to stick to the back and support others. In this game she is of the Mage class.

As Purple Sister she is notable for having no change in her personality, whereas every other character has at least one alteration in their behavior.
----
* BlackMage: Purely offense-oriented, with every skill she learns being an elemental spell (of the [[KillItWithFire fire]], [[KillItWithIce ice]], [[ShockAndAwe lightning]], and [[RazorWind wind]] varieties).

!!Uni (Black Sister)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/EriKitamura (Japanese), Creator/SarahWilliams (English)

Lastation's CPU Candidate, and Noire's younger sister, a person who tries very hard to live up to the standards set by her workaholic sister. An {{Otaku}} for anything related to firearms, though not the extent Nepgear is to machines. Much like how her sister is with Neptune, Uni also has a back and forth relationship with Nepgear, though she is slightly less {{Tsundere}} about it. In this game she has taken up the Thief class.

As Black Sister she becomes more confident and a bit more belligerent.
----
* GogglesDoNothing: In this game, Uni dons goggles. However, she doesn't wear them in the game as her goggles are on her head all the time.
* GunsAkimbo: Her pair of pistols has a quick rate of fire and the longest reaching range for a standard attack.
* GunFu: Some of her skills has her perform melee attacks before feeding her target with several bullets.
* PiratesWhoDontDoAnything: The reason why Uni chose to be a Thief because it was the only class that uses guns as weapons. She never tries to use stealth or thieving skills, except the only time she shows off a skill that is related to her class is a hiding skill that is [[CutscenePowerToTheMax only used once in a cutscene]] [[spoiler: for taking pictures in the game]].

!!Rom (White Sister)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuiOgura (Japanese), Creator/CarrieKeranen (English)

One of Lowee's CPU Candidates, and Blanc's little sister. Shy and timid compared to her sister despite her technically being the older one, has a habit of speaking the emotions she is feeling, which the residents of Lowee find endearing. In this game she is of the Samurai Class.

As White Sister she is less timid, and can properly speak what she wants to say.
----
* IaijutsuPractitioner: Her [[LimitBreak Awakening]] SpecialAttack has her sheathe her sword and then pull it out again, creating a ''massive'' SwordBeam.
* MagicallyIneptFighter: She is one of the two characters that has no elemental or magic skills.
* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: She does this occasionally, with words like "shiver", "sparkle", and [[UnsoundEffect "determination"]]. It even gets lampshaded in a cutscene.

!!Ram (White Sister)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KaoriIshihara (Japanese), Creator/ShelbyLindley (English)

One of Lowee's CPU Candidates, and Blanc's little sister. She is very lively and mischievous, and likes to drag her sister around for whatever mischief she is up to. Has gotten a bit rowdier lately as Rom has become more independent, and is pretty indiscriminate about who she targets for her pranks. In this game she is of the Ninja class.

As White Sister she is mostly the same, but talks with a sense of responsibility compared to her human self.
----
* FuumaShuriken: Her weapon of choice is a big shuriken which she uses as melee weapon instead of a projectile.
* HighlyVisibleNinja: Despite being a Ninja, her play style and skills have nothing to do with the stealth.
* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: The boomerang-like properties of her shurikens give her a slightly longer reach compared to the other close ranged units.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Four Goddesses]]
!!General Tropes about the Four Goddesses
* ArtificialIntelligence: The Four Goddesses in this game isn't the [=CPUs=] transforming, but are [=AIs=] based on their transformed states' likeness and in personality.
* BigGood: They're treated like this in the game's setting, although they struggle with out-of-context problems like cheaters.
* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine: They are all dressed in white clothes with golden highlights.
* HolyHalo: They all have a halo glowing blue above their heads.
* LightIsGood: They are all [[GoldAndWhiteAreDivine divine]], and unambiguously good.
* WingedHumanoid: All the goddesses have a pair of angelic wings, which symbolizes their divine nature.

!!Purple Heart
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_purple_heart.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RieTanaka (Japanese), Creator/MelissaFahn (English)

The goddess of fate.
----
* DoesNotLikeSpam: She gets sick from forcing herself to eat eggplants she was offered. [[spoiler:Neptune remedies this with her TrademarkFavoriteFood, pudding.]]
* OrgasmicallyDelicious: When [[spoiler:Neptune feeds her pudding]], she ends up in ecstasy at how delicious the confectionery is.

!!Black Heart
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AsamiImai (Japanese), Creator/EricaMendez (English)

The goddess of prosperity.
----

!!Green Heart
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RinaSato (Japanese), Creator/CarrieKeranen (English)

The goddess of fertility.
----
* MeetYourEarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Since she ([[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove initially]]) lack's Vert's sister obsession and is based on Vert's more serious and responsible personality traits, any scene where she talks to Vert feels like Vert talking to her pre-CharacterizationMarchesOn self.
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Asks Vert why she is so obsessed with little sisters, which makes Vert hold a lengthy speech about the glory of little sisters. By the end, Green Heart also expresses interest in the subject.

!!White Heart
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanaAsumi (Japanese), Creator/WendeeLee (English)

The goddess of order.
----
* BadButt: Just as aggressive as the real White Heart, but speaks in GoshDangItToHeck language ("It's been a frickton of years..."). [[TheComicallySerious Green Heart]] ''still'' [[FelonyMisdemeanor calls her out for it]].
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Beta Testers]]
!!IF
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanaUeda(Japanese), Creator/KateHiggins (English)

The personification of Idea Factory and one of Neptune's best friends. She runs an item shop with Compa in the game.
----

!!Compa
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_compa.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanakoSakai (Japanese), Creator/CristinaValenzuela (English)

The personification of Compile Heart and one of Neptune's best friends. She plays the doctor class in-game and runs an item shop with IF.
----

!!Plutia (Iris Heart)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanaHanazawa (Japanese), Creator/CheramiLeigh (English)

Runs an accessory shop with Peashy.
----

!!Peashy (Yellow Heart)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_peashy.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AoiYuuki (Japanese), Creator/SandyFox (English)

Runs an accessory shop with Plutia.
----
* AchievementsInIgnorance: Her barter shop (where she generally accepts shiny things or things she likes as payment) somehow managed to get ahold of several extremely rare items. Arfoire and Warechu are kind of scared how she managed to do it and try to keep distance as a result. She also managed to get the wish-granting spirit at the pond to actually appear despite every other players' failures.

!!Uzume Tennouboshi (Orange Heart)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarikoHonda (Japanese), Creator/EricaLindbeck (English)

A beta-tester who prefers to play solo.
----
* HeroesGoneFishing: Takes the trope more literally, with her picking up fishing as a hobby. So much so that she ends up getting a super rare pet that can only be gotten if you solely devote yourself to fishing.
* MsImagination: {{Averted}}. It's outright stated that this version of her doesn't daydream like her counterparts.

!!Tamsoft
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_tamsoft.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AmiKoshimizu (Japanese), Creator/AmandaCelineMiller (English)

The personification of Tamsoft, the game's developer. She is a blacksmith in the game, capable of upgrading player's equipment.
----

!!Arfoire
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_arfoire.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChiakiTakahashi (Japanese)

The series' recurring villain. Is an eggplant farmer in-game.
----
* GoKartingWithBowser: One of the very few times Arfoire is not out to do anything evil, she just wants to farm and make a living off her eggplants.
* TheVoiceless: In English, since none of the scenes in which she appears are dubbed.
* ThrowTheDogABone: It helps that she's not a villain here, but she does finally get something nice for herself; namely her attempts to grow and sell eggplants, despite initially being a failure, picked up a massive boom due to the fact that it unlocks a secret boss fight (since the game properly modeled Neptune's hatred of eggplants for AI Purple Heart).

!!Warechu
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_warechu.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Neeko (Japanese)

Planeptune's resident crook mouse.
----
* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Since there's no mouse race in the game, his appearance in-game is that of a human wearing a mouse costume.
* TheVoiceless: In English, since none of the scenes in which he appears are dubbed.

!!Kiria (real name Kazuko)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_kiria.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SayakaSenbongi (Japanese), Creator/AllegraClark (English)

A player that proclaims herself as †Kuronekohime†'s knight.
----
* {{Bifauxnen}}: It's very easy to mistake her for a man at first glance. Her real life acquaintance remarks that she looks better in cute dress than her bifauxnen looks in-game.
* {{Expy}}: She's essentially a port of Hiyori Kashiwazaka's [[Literature/SwordArtOnline Kuro]] avatar.
* ExtremeDoormat: For a majority of the story, she lets †Kuronekohime† / †Black Cat Princess† bully, manipulate, and push her around. It is implied that she had let her do this to her in a previous game as well despite †Kuronekohime† / †Black Cat Princess† showing often times that she is a ManipulativeBastard.

!!†Kuronekohime† / †Black Cat Princess†
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_black_cat_princess.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Ayano Yamamoto (Japanese), Creator/KayliMills (English)

A player that uses her charms in order to manipulate others.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Puts up a facade of being lovey-dovey with Kiria, but prefers to sucker people in and use them.
* CatsAreMean: She may look all cute and innocent, but she's actually a jerk who bullies and hurts other players.
* CheatersNeverProsper: Tries to cheat with Kiria to become more powerful than everyone else. It backfires spectacularly.
* {{Expy}}: Of ''Literature/AccelWorld'''s Kuroyukihime.
* HeelRealization: She finally realizes by the end of the game how much her behavior is actively hurting other people in the game, and accepts her account's permaban without problem along with Kiria.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Starts to shed her fake self and eventually shows she wants everyone to praise her and treat her like a goddess. It is heavily hinted that the reason her guild in an older game eventually disbanded was due to her toxic attitude.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Bullies other players and, in an optional cutscene, says she wants to dump Kiria because she is starting to find her boring and does not like others seeing her as weak whatsoever.

[[folder:[=NPCs=]]]
!!Bouquet
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_bouquet.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AyaUchida (Japanese), Creator/RyanBartley (English)

An NPC guardian spirit who Vert really wants to make her little sister.
----
* BrickJoke: It took until [[Creator/RinaSato Vert]] actually decided to create her own ideal little sister for her to even possibly get one.
* {{Expy}}: Of ''Literature/SwordArtOnline'''s Yui, with both being fully functional AI in a game world.
* MarshmallowHell: She gets hugged face-first into Vert's ample chest.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Compiles the antivirus in order to destroy Cheetah (since they're based on the same code) and unleash it, which would have resulted in her death if the GM didn't patch her program to survive in time.]]

!!Grim Reaper
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_grim_reaper.png]]

A rumored boss that is killing players out of nowhere and impeding them from making progress with the story.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:'''SPOILERS''']]
!!Cheetah
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_cheetah.png]]

Kiria and †Black Cat Princess†'s fusion form that they used to PK other players, which is normally impossible to do since the game doesn't support PVP combat. Cheetah turns out to be combat AI made by Mine in order to destabilize and destroy [=4GO=], and it being used by Kiria and †Black Cat Princess† is mainly to train up its combat algorithm.
----
* DragonInChief: Towards the story's climax, Mine completes its algorithm, made it independent of Kiria and †Black Cat Princess†, and sets it loose. However, she ends up losing control of it after she tries to stop Cheetah and it still tries to destroy the game after Mine stops trying to do so. The [=CPUs=] have to fight it in person instead.
* {{Pun}}: Its name is pun of "cheater".

!!GM
The main GM of the game.
----
* TheAllegedBoss: She's not that bad at being engineer by any means, especially consider later when she fought in hacking duel with Mine. But as a ''player'', she, and the other [=GMs=], are really not up to par. This causes problems when Mine triggered monsters to attack the main city and she couldn't just put the game in emergency maintenance due to Mine's interference, resulting in her having to ask other players, including the [=CPUs=], to help fight them off.

!!Robed Figure/Mine
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_mine.png]]

A mysterious person in a black robe who keeps trying to sell cheat tools to other players. She turns out to be a former CEO/game designer of a rival game company to Weiss, who wants to destroy [=4GO=] after its popularity results in her own game dropping in popularity and eventually causing her company to shut down.
----
* BigBad: She's responsible for the creation of Cheetah, as well as the various other glitches endangering [=4GO=]'s players.
* TheCracker: Being a former game engineer gives her considerable skill at understanding and subverting game systems. The GM is more skilled at countering her, however, which eventually results in her loss.
* ItsAllAboutMe: What caused her personal and company's downfall. She was far more focused on putting only what ''she'' wanted and thought was good for her game versus accepting input and ideas from the other developers and players. Overlaps with NeverMyFault when she ends up blaming ''[=4GO=]'' for her losses. She gets better.

* IaijutsuPractitioner: Her [[LimitBreak Awakening]] SpecialAttack has her sheathe her sword and then pull it out again, creating a ''massive'' SwordBeam.
* MagicallyIneptFighter: She is one of the two characters that has no elemental or magic skills.
* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: She does this occasionally, with words like "shiver", "sparkle", and [[UnsoundEffect "determination"]]. It even gets lampshaded in a cutscene.

!!Ram (White Sister)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KaoriIshihara (Japanese), Creator/ShelbyLindley (English)

One of Lowee's CPU Candidates, and Blanc's little sister. She is very lively and mischievous, and likes to drag her sister around for whatever mischief she is up to. Has gotten a bit rowdier lately as Rom has become more independent, and is pretty indiscriminate about who she targets for her pranks. In this game she is of the Ninja class.

As White Sister she is mostly the same, but talks with a sense of responsibility compared to her human self.
----
* FuumaShuriken: Her weapon of choice is a big shuriken which she uses as melee weapon instead of a projectile.
* HighlyVisibleNinja: Despite being a Ninja, her play style and skills have nothing to do with the stealth.
* PrecisionGuidedBoomerang: The boomerang-like properties of her shurikens give her a slightly longer reach compared to the other close ranged units.

* BigGood: They're treated like this in the game's setting, although they struggle with out-of-context problems like cheaters.
* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine: They are all dressed in white clothes with golden highlights.
* HolyHalo: They all have a halo glowing blue above their heads.
* LightIsGood: They are all [[GoldAndWhiteAreDivine divine]], and unambiguously good.

The goddess of prosperity.
----

!!Green Heart
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RinaSato (Japanese), Creator/CarrieKeranen (English)

The goddess of fertility.
----
* MeetYourEarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Since she ([[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove initially]]) lack's Vert's sister obsession and is based on Vert's more serious and responsible personality traits, any scene where she talks to Vert feels like Vert talking to her pre-CharacterizationMarchesOn self.
* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Asks Vert why she is so obsessed with little sisters, which makes Vert hold a lengthy speech about the glory of little sisters. By the end, Green Heart also expresses interest in the subject.

!!White Heart
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanaAsumi (Japanese), Creator/WendeeLee (English)

The goddess of order.
----
* BadButt: Just as aggressive as the real White Heart, but speaks in GoshDangItToHeck language ("It's been a frickton of years..."). [[TheComicallySerious Green Heart]] ''still'' [[FelonyMisdemeanor calls her out for it]].

Runs an accessory shop with Plutia.
----
* AchievementsInIgnorance: Her barter shop (where she generally accepts shiny things or things she likes as payment) somehow managed to get ahold of several extremely rare items. Arfoire and Warechu are kind of scared how she managed to do it and try to keep distance as a result. She also managed to get the wish-granting spirit at the pond to actually appear despite every other players' failures.

!!Uzume Tennouboshi (Orange Heart)
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarikoHonda (Japanese), Creator/EricaLindbeck (English)

A beta-tester who prefers to play solo.
----
* HeroesGoneFishing: Takes the trope more literally, with her picking up fishing as a hobby. So much so that she ends up getting a super rare pet that can only be gotten if you solely devote yourself to fishing.
* MsImagination: {{Averted}}. It's outright stated that this version of her doesn't daydream like her counterparts.

!!Tamsoft

-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChiakiTakahashi (Japanese)

The series' recurring villain. Is an eggplant farmer in-game.
----
* GoKartingWithBowser: One of the very few times Arfoire is not out to do anything evil, she just wants to farm and make a living off her eggplants.
* TheVoiceless: In English, since none of the scenes in which she appears are dubbed.
* ThrowTheDogABone: It helps that she's not a villain here, but she does finally get something nice for herself; namely her attempts to grow and sell eggplants, despite initially being a failure, picked up a massive boom due to the fact that it unlocks a secret boss fight (since the game properly modeled Neptune's hatred of eggplants for AI Purple Heart).

!!Warechu
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_warechu.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Neeko (Japanese)

Planeptune's resident crook mouse.

-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SayakaSenbongi (Japanese), Creator/AllegraClark (English)

A player that proclaims herself as †Kuronekohime†'s knight.
----
* {{Bifauxnen}}: It's very easy to mistake her for a man at first glance. Her real life acquaintance remarks that she looks better in cute dress than her bifauxnen looks in-game.
* {{Expy}}: She's essentially a port of Hiyori Kashiwazaka's [[Literature/SwordArtOnline Kuro]] avatar.
* ExtremeDoormat: For a majority of the story, she lets †Kuronekohime† / †Black Cat Princess† bully, manipulate, and push her around. It is implied that she had let her do this to her in a previous game as well despite †Kuronekohime† / †Black Cat Princess† showing often times that she is a ManipulativeBastard.

!!†Kuronekohime† / †Black Cat Princess†
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_black_cat_princess.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Ayano Yamamoto (Japanese), Creator/KayliMills (English)

A player that uses her charms in order to manipulate others.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Puts up a facade of being lovey-dovey with Kiria, but prefers to sucker people in and use them.
* CatsAreMean: She may look all cute and innocent, but she's actually a jerk who bullies and hurts other players.
* CheatersNeverProsper: Tries to cheat with Kiria to become more powerful than everyone else. It backfires spectacularly.
* {{Expy}}: Of ''Literature/AccelWorld'''s Kuroyukihime.
* HeelRealization: She finally realizes by the end of the game how much her behavior is actively hurting other people in the game, and accepts her account's permaban without problem along with Kiria.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Starts to shed her fake self and eventually shows she wants everyone to praise her and treat her like a goddess. It is heavily hinted that the reason her guild in an older game eventually disbanded was due to her toxic attitude.
* JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Bullies other players and, in an optional cutscene, says she wants to dump Kiria because she is starting to find her boring and does not like others seeing her as weak whatsoever.

!!Bouquet
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_bouquet.png]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AyaUchida (Japanese), Creator/RyanBartley (English)

An NPC guardian spirit who Vert really wants to make her little sister.
----
* BrickJoke: It took until [[Creator/RinaSato Vert]] actually decided to create her own ideal little sister for her to even possibly get one.
* {{Expy}}: Of ''Literature/SwordArtOnline'''s Yui, with both being fully functional AI in a game world.
* MarshmallowHell: She gets hugged face-first into Vert's ample chest.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Compiles the antivirus in order to destroy Cheetah (since they're based on the same code) and unleash it, which would have resulted in her death if the GM didn't patch her program to survive in time.]]

!!Grim Reaper
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_grim_reaper.png]]

A rumored boss that is killing players out of nowhere and impeding them from making progress with the story.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:'''SPOILERS''']]
!!Cheetah
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_cheetah.png]]

Kiria and †Black Cat Princess†'s fusion form that they used to PK other players, which is normally impossible to do since the game doesn't support PVP combat. Cheetah turns out to be combat AI made by Mine in order to destabilize and destroy [=4GO=], and it being used by Kiria and †Black Cat Princess† is mainly to train up its combat algorithm.
----
* DragonInChief: Towards the story's climax, Mine completes its algorithm, made it independent of Kiria and †Black Cat Princess†, and sets it loose. However, she ends up losing control of it after she tries to stop Cheetah and it still tries to destroy the game after Mine stops trying to do so. The [=CPUs=] have to fight it in person instead.
* {{Pun}}: Its name is pun of "cheater".

!!GM
The main GM of the game.
----
* TheAllegedBoss: She's not that bad at being engineer by any means, especially consider later when she fought in hacking duel with Mine. But as a ''player'', she, and the other [=GMs=], are really not up to par. This causes problems when Mine triggered monsters to attack the main city and she couldn't just put the game in emergency maintenance due to Mine's interference, resulting in her having to ask other players, including the [=CPUs=], to help fight them off.

!!Robed Figure/Mine
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/4go_mine.png]]

A mysterious person in a black robe who keeps trying to sell cheat tools to other players. She turns out to be a former CEO/game designer of a rival game company to Weiss, who wants to destroy [=4GO=] after its popularity results in her own game dropping in popularity and eventually causing her company to shut down.
----
* BigBad: She's responsible for the creation of Cheetah, as well as the various other glitches endangering [=4GO=]'s players.
* TheCracker: Being a former game engineer gives her considerable skill at understanding and subverting game systems. The GM is more skilled at countering her, however, which eventually results in her loss.
* ItsAllAboutMe: What caused her personal and company's downfall. She was far more focused on putting only what ''she'' wanted and thought was good for her game versus accepting input and ideas from the other developers and players. Overlaps with NeverMyFault when she ends up blaming ''[=4GO=]'' for her losses. She gets better.
