* {{Foil}}: To Jacob. While Jacob is happy to coast by on his BornLucky status and falls on the "performer" side of the TechnicianVersusPerformer dichotomy, Jan [[ChallengeSeeker prefers to challenge himself as much as possible]] and is very much a "technician". The two have gone on to become [[SitcomArchNemesis self proclaimed rivals]] and [[FriendlyRivalry give each other advice]] on how to become better Nuzlockers and YouTubers respectively. Hilariously, these differences cause him, Jaiden, and Jacob to shuffle roles during his [=SoulLink=] with Jaiden where she coasted through White 2, Jan suffered through an extra hard ROM Hack of Black 2, and Jacob didn't participate but was feared for his inevitable mocking reaction.

[[folder:''Dungeons & Dragons'' Characters]]
!!Zoot
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5810.png]]

A Dragonborn who accompanies Paul, Tholomew, and Luap on their personal journies. Played by Jaiden.
----
* AcidAttack: Their primary method of attack is Acid Splash, which they fire as a BreathWeapon from their mouth.
* ArmedWithPepperSpray: Their go-to physical weapon is Mace, a bottle of pepper spray.
* BreathWeapon: All blasts of Acid Splash are fired from their mouth.
* DraconicHumanoid: Being a Dragonborn, they're draconic in nature with a very humanlike body.
* EmotionBomb: Casting Depression causes Zoot to lock Mark into a state of complete despair.
* NominalHero: It's made clear that Zoot has no heroic aspirations, and is mainly just along for the ride.
* ShapeshiftingSeducer: By using Disguise Self, they're able to transform themself into Mark's ex-wife, Ella, to get close to him.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: They're able to speak to animals by using a spell that's needlessly destructive in the process. Oddly, this spell doesn't work on Goblins.

!!Paul
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5811.png]]

The assistant manager at Ye Olde Mart o' Wal, who's looking to take out his upper manager, Mark, to allow for upward mobility. Played by WebVideo/{{Alpharad}}.
----
* AerithAndBob: In a world filled with people whose names are fictitious-sounding, his name is just... Paul.
* BadassNormal: Unlike Zoot and Tholomew, he doesn't have any magical abilities, but he's an absolute master with a battle axe, even after it's peeled in half.
* EveryoneHasStandards: He's the only one who's appalled by Zoot playing with Mark's emotions just so they can get a cheap shot on him.
* TheGenericGuy: He's the most basic person out of all the party members, which makes him stick out in a HighFantasy setting.
* TheStoic: He rarely ever changes his expression from a dull, uninterested grimace. Even getting pepper sprayed or transformed into a zebra doesn't shake him.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: He's the only one of the group who's able to communicate with goblins.
* TokenHuman: While Zoot is a Dragonborn and Tholomew is a Tabaxi, Paul is the only party member who's explicitly human.

!!Tholomew
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5812.png]]

A [[TheParanoiac paranoid]] Tabaxi who believes they're stuck in a GroundhogDayLoop, and looks to take out their neighbor, Thompson, to free playing. Played by [[https://m.youtube.com/c/Ranboo Ranboo]].
----
* BigGood: While the session is from Zoot's perspective, they're the de facto leader of the group who unites them under a foot cause.
* CatFolk: As Tabaxi are humanoid, sentient cats, they're this by default.
* CombatMedic: In addition to their fighting capabilities, they're also the group's designated healer, healing up Luap after he's taken a beating in trying to get the wand.
* FelonyMisdemeanor: Their reasons for hating Thompson essentially amount to this.
-->'''Tholomew:''' This is for everything! The [[UngratefulBastard low tax return]], the [[DramaticIrony restraining order]]; for [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence moving in next to me]]! YOU'RE MY PERSONAL HELL!
* MaliciousSlander: They're stated to have spread multiple false rumors about Thompson, which led to his wife divorcing him.
* MusicalAssassin: They use a pair of bongos and a bagpipe as their means of attack, using them to cast Shockwave.
* TheParanoiac: Their defining personality trait is that they're a NervousWreck, constantly believing Thompson is out to get them, and being overly observant of everyone and everything around them.
* SelfServingMemory: Nothing they say about Thompson is true; they're all fabrications so they can have an excuse to take him out.

!!Luap/[[spoiler:Paul Jr.]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5813.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Click here to see ('''SPOILERS''')]]\\
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5814.png[softreturn]Paul Jr.[[/labelnote]]]]

A human who was [[ForcedTransformation cursed into becoming a sheep]], and joins the group in the hopes of turning back into a human.
----
* AccidentalMisnaming: His name is Luap, but Zoot keeps mispronouncing it as "Lop".
* TheChewToy: He's battered and bruised while trying to get his hands on the wand to turn him back.
* LukeYouAreMyFather: [[spoiler:He's actually Paul's missing son, Paul Jr., which the former doesn't know about until he's transformed back.]]
* SdrawkcabName: [[spoiler:Luap isn't his actual name; it's spelt backwards to obfuscate the fact that he's Paul Jr.]]
* TeamPet: He shares this role with Paul Jr., before ultimately taking it after Paul Jr. [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse disappears from the plot]].

!!Paul Jr.
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5815.png]]

Zoot's pet turtle who was named by Paul.
----
* AdviceBackfire: They try to have Zoot guess "turtle" as the answer to the Riddle Door's riddle, even when Paul and Tholomew have already determined that the answer is "worm".
* ReplacementGoldfish: [[spoiler:Turns out Paul ''isn't'' a GiverOfLameNames; they're named Paul Jr. in memoriam of Paul's missing son.]]
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: After the fight with the clay monsters, Paul Jr. unceremoniously disappears from the plot.

!!Mark Thompson
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5816.png]]

Tholomew's neighbor and the manager of Ye Olde Mart o' Wal, who's become a Dark Mage to exact revenge on Tholomew for ruining his life.
----
* BaldOfEvil: His hair is noticeably thinning, and he's the main villain of the story.
* BigBad: Being Paul and Tholomew's ArchEnemy and being the final obstacle of the session, he serves the role of the villain.
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: Despite remembering everything about his beef with Tholomew, he doesn't understand what he did that caused Paul to antagonize him.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: What keeps him from being an AntiVillain despite all Tholomew did to him is that he horribly mismanages Ye Olde Mart o' Wal, which caused Paul's life to be even more miserable than it already is.
* FatBastard: He's got a pronounced beer belly, and is the BigBad.
* ForcedTransformation: He's ultimately defeated by Tholomew using the wand to transform him into a worm.
* IfICantHaveYou: Says this near-verbatim about the wand after Zoot uses Acid Splash on him.
* {{Invisibility}}: He's able to cast Invisibility to make him impossible to spot.
* TragicVillain: Tholomew spreading false rumors about him due to their rampant paranoia caused his wife and child to leave him, which turned him into the corrupt manager he is now. Zoot disguising themself as Ella nearly causes him to have a change of heart.
* TwoAliasesOneCharacter: Paul knows him by his {{first name|basis}}, Mark, while Tholomew knows him by his {{last name|basis}}, Thompson. The two people they're searching for turn out to be the same guy.

!!The Dungeon Master
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_5817.png]]

The god of the world who leaves fate up to the roll of a d20. Played by LetsPlay/{{Slimecicle}}.
----
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Even he found Zoot toying with Mark's emotions to Acid Splash him to be hilarious.
* GameMaster: Being the Dungeon Master, he's naturally the one overseeing the world created in the game.
* TheGodsMustBeLazy: Despite being the god of the world, he doesn't cause any sort of divine intervention beyond controlling fate via a d20.
* TheMaker: He's described as being essentially the god of the world seen in the game.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: He's rather irrelevant to the plot, but everything that happens in the game is by his command and the rolling of his d20.
