Can't decide on a face.

* BossInMookClothing: While not as proportionately powerful to the player upon encounter as Glyde, she does have the most health of any non-boss monster in the game, and she takes several turns to spare (only two if the player previously hummed to Shyren). Her attacks are also very elaborate for a non-boss enemy.

[[quoteright:218:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dogs2.png]]
[[caption-width-right:218:''♥ * Pet'']]

Doggo, Lesser Dog, Greater Dog, Dogamy, and Dogaressa (the latter two often being called the "Dogi"). A series of armored dogs guarding the path from the Ruins to Snowdin.

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Lesser Dog can be found at Grillby's playing a game of Poker against itself. And ''[[EpicFail losing]]''. By the PlayableEpilogue, it finally manages to beat itself.
* AdmiringTheAbomination: In the True Pacifist Ending, Doggo has no problems at all with his long-lost relative. [[spoiler:Said relative is Endogeny, who is more or less an undead blob monster, and Doggo's happy that he can see it since it's constantly moving.]]
* AmbiguousGender: Lesser Dog and Greater Dog are only ever referred to as "it".
* AnAxeToGrind: Dogamy and Dogaressa wield giant axes that have eyes on them. They slam them down for one of their attacks.
* AngryGuardDog: Played with. While they are dogs who are guards, none of them are very angry. Doggo is the closest one there is to being angry most of the time.
* AnimatedArmor: Or maybe a MiniMecha. The big, hulking Greater Dog is actually a normal-sized dog riding a massive suit of armor.
* BattleCouple: Dogamy and Dogaressa are married.
* BewareOfViciousDog: For the most part [[SubvertedTrope subverted]]. While several guard dogs do in fact [[EverythingIsTryingToKillYou attack you on sight]], and humorously worded signs warn about a few of these encounters, [[BigFriendlyDog not all of these dogs are particularly ill-tempered]], the ones who are only really act this way around unfamiliar humans, and in every case you can literally PetTheDog and befriend it. The sign next to Lesser Dog's guard station parodies the classic warning: "aware of dog, pls pet dog."
* BigFriendlyDog: Greater Dog looks gigantic and intimidating, but all it wants is some TLC, and will gladly leave you alone when it gets some.
* BladeOnAStick:
** The Greater Dog's weapon is a spear with a dog face on it.
** Lesser Dog uses them to attack, but it holds a [[{{Pun}} dogger]][[labelnote:*]]which is actually a sword, not a dagger, judging by its size[[/labelnote]] in its battle sprite.
* BossInMookClothing: The [[BattleCouple Dogi]] have a unique intro, difficult attacks, and are fairly difficult to spare. In addition, Dogaressa’s attacks become much harder if you kill Dogamy before her.
* BossRemix: The song that plays during Greater Dog's fight is a slowed-down version of "Dogsong", the regular fight theme re-orchestrated using dog barks from the ''VideoGame/MarioPaint'' soundfont.
* BrotherSisterIncest: {{Parodied|Trope}}. [[spoiler: In the PlayableEpilogue, the [[AdorableEvilMinions Snowdin Canine Unit]] meets [[CreepyCute Endogeny]], an [[BodyHorror Amalgamate]] of their relatives. Dogamy realizes that since his and Dogaressa’s parents are now the same being]], [[SurpriseIncest he’s technically married to his sister]]. But [[TruthInTelevision then again]]...
--> '''Dogamy''': Wait, we’re dogs. [[YourNormalIsOurTaboo That stuff's normal.]]
* BrotherSisterTeam: In the PlayableEpilogue, the Dogi realize that since their parents have merged together into one entity, they're now technically siblings.
* CanisMajor: Greater Dog, and to make the reference to the stars complete, Lesser Dog. Subverted when it turns out it's just a sort-of big dog riding around in a disproportionately large suit of armor.
* CriticalHit: Parodied when you pet Lesser Dog enough to spare it, at which point the game text informs you that it's a "critical pet!"
* DarkIsNotEvil: Dogamy and Dogaressa wear black hooded cloaks and wield [[AnAxeToGrind battle-axes]], but they're just as friendly as the other monsters when spared. Bonus points for being a [[SickeninglySweethearts sickeningly sweet-hearted couple]].
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Lesser Dog has six Act options; "Check", "Pet", "Pet", "Pet", "Pet", and "Pet". Hmm, how could it possibly be Spared...?
* DogsAreDumb: Varies. Lesser Dog and Greater Dog have mental capabilities only slightly higher than a non-anthropomorphic dog (although the latter ''is'' a non-anthro dog). Doggo is smarter, but his inability to see unmoving things hampers him, and he thinks the former two dogs are much smarter than they actually are. The Dogi seem to be the smartest overall, but even they aren't too complicated, allowing you to fool them into thinking that you're some kind of puppy if you roll around in the snow.
* DualBoss: Dogamy and Dogaressa, reflected by their attacks having two parts. Depending on which one you kill first (if you decide to kill them), the other will change their attacks based on their reaction to the other's death. Dogaressa [[UnstoppableRage flies into a rage]]; Dogamy [[DespairEventHorizon just mourns]]...
* EvilDetectingDog:
** The Dogi have great noses when it comes to smelling for potential human intruders, which is why they attack you in the first place. Fortunately, wallowing in the dirt will get rid of the human scent and help when Sparing them.
** Doggo can't see things that are standing still, with one exception; he will feel something very ''wrong'' and become afraid when the player approaches him on a No Mercy run. This is the first true sign of how the player's KillingIntent works.
* FaceOfAThug: Doggo looks like a typical gangster with wacky clothing and knives as his signature weapon. He's just as friendly as the other dog-type monsters. It's been speculated that he only dresses up like that because his reverse motion blindness (can only see moving things) makes him unaware of what he's wearing.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: When in battle, the Dogi may reveal that they were runner-ups in a nose-nuzzling championship. You later learn who came first: [[spoiler:Asgore and Toriel]].
* FunTShirt: The Dogi have each other's faces on their robes, unseen on their overworld sprites and only noticeable if you SPARE them or [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential kill one of them]], as their axes cover the other's chest in their battle sprites.
* GRatedDrug: Doggo likes to ''smoke'' dog treats. Likely the reason why the ESRB rating mentions "Tobacco References".
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Doggo's inability to notice stuff that isn't moving is reflected in his blue attacks, which cannot harm a stationary player. If the player ''does'' get hit by them, they get noticed and he uses regular white attacks.
* GentleGiant: The Greater Dog is described as such when spoken about in Grillby's, and if played with and petted is more than content to lie down in the Child's lap... while wearing its hulking suit of armor.
* GoFetch: Use the Stick on any of them, and they'll run after it, allowing them to be Spared instantly.
* GratuitousJapanese: When you pet Doggo, the word WAN floats around him as he freaks out. 'Wan' is the Japanese onomatopoeia for a dog's barking.
* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: While none of them are weak, they seem to have a hard time actually guarding anything, thanks to their dog instincts. Papyrus comments on it while talking about Lesser Dog in one phone call.
-->'''Papyrus:''' This dog loves to be pet. That's its defining personality trait. Wait, why are they a Royal Guard and not me!?
* HappilyMarried: The Dogi. One of the battle comments is that they are "saying sickeningly sweet things to each other".
* HeroicBSOD: Killing Dogaressa will cause Dogamy to become depressed, and his attacks become completely impotent. On the flipside, Dogaressa slips into an UnstoppableRage and gets even more powerful if Dogamy dies.
* IncestIsRelative: [[spoiler:Since all the dog parents were fused together into the Endogeny Amalgamate, Dogamy and Dogaressa ponder the implications of how they are technically related now. They dismiss it because it is common among dogs.]]
* {{Keet}}: Lesser Dog, who gets excited when you pet it. Really, ''really'' excited.
* KillOneOthersGetStronger: Zigzagged for Dogi and Dogaressa during a non-Pacifist route. If Dogi dies first, Dogaressa goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge against you, complete with the faster moving axe attack, but if Dogaressa dies first, Dogi goes into a HeroicBSOD and all he can manage is a small dog feebly barking out a heart, alongside his defence dropping by 30, making him way easier to kill.
* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: Lesser Dog is considered "separate" from the others in several ways. It doesn't play poker with the others, It is a random encounter instead of appearing with a cutscene, and it [[spoiler:doesn't appear outside of Grillby's with the other dogs and Endogeny in the True Pacifist ending]].
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Doggo can't see things that aren't moving. If you try to talk to him, he gets jumpy and asks "Who's there?!" He can't see who's talking to him... because you can't move during dialogue.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** The Greater Dog has "Dogsong" playing during its encounter.
** "Dogbass" plays as the Dogi investigate the area, just before they attack.
* LivingMotionDetector: Doggo can ''only'' see things that are moving, a point very much stressed in the early-game to teach you about blue attacks.
* LongNeck: Most of the humor value of a pacifist Lesser Dog encounter. The more you pet it, the more its neck telescopes out. With enough patience, its head can even go out of the top of the game screen, back down, and through the bottom.
* TheLostLenore: If Dogaressa dies first, Dogi is just left to mourn his dead wife.
* MiniBoss: All of them sans Lesser Dog are unique and are required encounters. Only the Dogi and Greater Dog take much effort to Spare or Fight, however.
* MoreDeadlyThanTheMale: When fighting the [[BattleCouple Dogi]], if you kill Dogaressa first, then Dogamy loses almost all will to fight and becomes a pushover. However, if you kill ''him'' first, [[KillOneOthersGetStronger Dogaressa becomes much more dangerous and harder to beat.]]
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: Lesser Dog seems to be the Zoidberg of the Dog group. None of the other dogs mention it, and it appears as a random encounter enemy rather than a mini-boss encounter. [[spoiler:It's also the only dog not to meet Endogeny; at the end of the game, it's still inside playing poker against itself.]] The NPC near Lesser Dog's station can also comment that Lesser Dog always ends up playing poker alone because it doesn't know how to express itself with the other dogs.
* MyInstinctsAreShowing: Despite all of them being at least intelligent enough to wear clothes, they all love being petted and chasing sticks.
* TheNoseKnows: The Dogi depend almost entirely on their sense of smell to identify intruders. A crucial part of sparing them involves rolling around to disguise your scent.
* NoSmoking: PlayedForLaughs (considering smoking occurs elsewhere in the game), Doggo has a fondness for smoking dog treats, of all things.
* NotSoStoic: Doggo seems pretty serious when you first meet him... and then you pet him, and anything that made him imposing vanishes.
* OhCrap: Doggo has this reaction when he's pet by something he's inferred to ''not exist''. (Or at least not see.)
* OverlyLongGag: Lesser Dog's neck-stretching gag can go on for a ''very'' long time and yield unique lines long after you can Spare it. It will also keep cropping up during the game afterwards.
* PunchClockVillains: Once the player reaches Snowdin, they can all be found hanging out at Grillby's, and don't seem to care at all that you're there.
* PunnyName:
** "Dogaressa" is the female form of "doge". "Italian ruler" doge, mind you, not ''[[MemeticMutation that]]'' doge.
** "Dogamy" is a pun on the suffix "-gamy" being used for different types of marriage (monogamy, polygamy, etc.), as Dogamy and Dogaressa are married.
** A subtler one in Doggo's case — "doggo" is somewhat archaic slang meaning "to remain motionless and quiet to escape detection" (i.e., exactly what you need to do when facing Doggo).
** In a very downplayed example, Lesser Dog's 'dogger' is made of 'pomer-granite'.
* QuirkyMinibossSquad: The royal guard all have weird quirks. Doggo's vision problems, Greater Dog's tendency to act like a regular dog, Dogamy and Dogaressa being SickeninglySweethearts, and Lesser Dog's increasingly long neck.
* RealMenWearPink: Doggo, the most threatening of the dogs in appearance, wears a pink shirt with a dog face on it.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: If Dogamy is killed before Dogaressa, Dogaressa ''flips out'' and becomes much more relentless in her attacks.
* RummageSaleReject: In contrast with his squadmates (who wear armor or cloaks), Doggo wears a ridiculous outfit of a pink sleeveless shirt with a dog face on it and leopard-print pants. Fans tend to agree that his inability to see still objects causes him to wear things like this.
* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: {{Unsound Effect}}s, rather. Lesser Dog's speech, if one can call it that, consists of sounds spoken out loud, like "pant pant" or "excited noises." As you keep petting it, it starts making sounds that no dog can or should make, including "plane takeoff" and "kettle whistling".
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: If you ignore Greater Dog for several turns, it will leave out of boredom.
* ShieldsAreUseless: Despite carrying around a shield the size of itself, Lesser Dog has the lowest Defense out of all of them.
* SickeninglySweethearts: The Dogi are said to call each other overly cute names during battle.
* SpellMyNameWithAThe: In-battle text refers to the female of the Dogi as "''the'' Dogaressa".
* StealthPun: They're guard dogs.
** One of Greater Dog's attacks is a tiny sleeping dog. If you move at all, you'll wake the dog and cause it to attack. Let sleeping dogs lie.
* StellarName: Lesser Dog and Greater Dog's names derive from the English translation for the names of the dog constellations, Canis Minor and Canis Major.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Dogamy has BigOlEyebrows and a pseudo-mustache, while Dogaressa has long eyelashes. They're nearly identical otherwise.
* ThemeNaming: All of them have "Dog" in their names. [[spoiler:This carries over to Endogeny late in the game.]]
* TinyHeadedBehemoth: Greater Dog initially seems to be this. It's actually a normal-sized dog wearing a giant suit of armor.
* TopHeavyGuy: Greater Dog, whose chest and arms are gigantic compared to its positively tiny head and legs. Except that it's actually just a regular-sized dog in some sort of pilotable armor.
* TruthInTelevision: Doggo's inability to perceive static objects is a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riddoch_syndrome real-life disorder]].
* UniqueEnemy: Lesser Dog, unlike the other dogs, is fought in a random encounter on one screen. It's otherwise still a mini-boss, albeit one of the simplest ones.
* VocalDissonance: The Greater Dog has a very deep bark, which is fitting for the kind of person who would normally wear armor as big as it does, but not for the average-sized dog it actually is. Unusually, this goes both ways, in that Greater Dog introduces itself from its snow poff by sticking its head and tail out, then giving a couple of high-pitched, yappy barks, which makes it seem cute... until it reveals that it somehow hid its entire massive body underneath the snow. This makes it seem like a squeaky-voiced titan instead.
* WarmUpBoss: All of them teach you a different mechanic that's important to know going forward. Doggo teaches you about Light Blue attacks that don't hurt you if you stand still: if you didn't encounter a Vegetoid in the Ruins, this is the first non-white bullet you'll see. The Dogi teach you that certain ACT commands change in response to other ACT commands and thus you'll have to do this sequentially to get to them to back down. Lesser Dog's use as a tutorial is questionable, since it stops fighting after the first pet, but repeatedly petting it shows that repetition can have different effects. And Greater Dog combines all of these, using Light Blue bullets, having ACT commands that change in response to previous ACT commands, and requiring the same ACT to be used multiple times to spare it.
* WeaksauceWeakness: Petting plays a significant role in scoring a Pacifist victory against all of them. They're also all vulnerable to a thrown stick. Doggo, in particular, can't hurt you if you hold still.
* WeaponsGradeVocabulary: One of the Greater Dog's attacks is a tiny sleeping dog that, if woken up by moving, will send damaging "BARK"s at your SOUL.
* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Doggo is really good at sensing motion. And that's literally the ''only'' thing he can see, so anyone standing perfectly still is completely invisible to him (and this is reflected in his attacks, which are all of the blue variety and can be avoided by standing still).

''"... team attack."'']]

[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Guards. Royal ones.]]

* TwentyFourHourArmor: Except for when 02 takes off his breastplate because of the heat, they are never seen without their armor.
* AffablyEvil: At least RG 01 is this. Immediately after the guards' DoubleTake, he politely tells the player that they'll have to kill the player. They also look rather disinterested during their fight.
* ArmoredDragons: RG 02 is a dragon, according to [[ActionGirl Undyne]]. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as he is still a monster, and as such, [[AllergicToEvil he is vulnerable to LOVE]].
* BigDamnHeroes: If you spare them, they both become this to [[spoiler:the Nice Cream Guy as they buy out ''his entire stock'', persuading him to stay in business]].
* BlackKnight: In appearance thanks to their glossy dark armor, large swords, and face-concealing helmets. Ultimately, however, 01 is a loud frat boy and 02 is his shy wallflower friend.
* DespairEventHorizon: In contrast with 02, if only 01 is left alive, his reaction basically goes from swearing vengeance, to anguish, to despair.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: They're only referred to as "01" and "02," even when speaking to each other!
* {{Fratbro}}: 01's characterization, being mostly this with a dash of SurferDude thanks to his constant use of the words 'like' and 'bro.'
* FunnyAnimal: It's pretty hard to tell at first glance, especially since they're wearing all-encompassing armor, but 01 has [[RighteousRabbit rabbit ears]] and 02 has [[DraconicHumanoid draconic fins on the sides of his head and his chest is covered in scales]]. If you call Undyne standing in the area where you fight them, she confirms them as a rabbit and a dragon.
* GettingHotInHere: The Royal Guards are located in Hotland, and use cooling dirt to keep their suits of armor cool. Washing it off causes one of them to get overheated, so he takes it off. It ''also'' gets the other guard overheated and too distracted to fight, but [[DistractedByTheSexy in a different way.]]
* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: Literally. When you first meet them in Hotland, both warn you about a dangerous human Undyne warned them about and put a kill-on-sight order on them, and the reason why they try to catch you the second time on a neutral run? They're evacuating the area ''and try to bring you to safety''. RG 02 picks up on this, however.
* JustJokingJustification: When 01 confesses his love to 02, and it momentarily looks like that the latter doesn't reciprocate, the former backpedals and claims it was a joke. 02 does reciprocate, however.
* KillOneOthersGetStronger: If one of the guards are killed, the other's attack becomes a lot more harder to dodge and become much more intense in nature.
* LikeIsLikeAComma: 01 has a habit of saying "like" when it isn't necessary.
* ManlyGay: If 01's interactions with 02 say anything. Humorously, [[ButchLesbian Undyne]] of all people seems to be completely oblivious to it if you call her in the area they're fought, referring to their "platonic friendship."
* MiniBoss: You need to fight them to move forward and their battle is unique, but they're secondary characters and beating them isn't particularly hard.
* TheQuietOne: 02, who just mumbles things and sighs where 01 is shouty and enthusiastic.
* RedOniBlueOni: 01 is red, 02 is blue.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Killing one of them results in the other's attacks becoming much more fierce, though 02 seems more angry in the flavor text and 01 just seems to be in despair.
* ShirtlessScene: 02 gets very hot and sweaty during your fight and decides to take off the top of his armor. [[EatingTheEyeCandy This makes 01 very nervous.]]
* ShoutOut: Their Genocide route [=CHECK=] description is a direct quote from Banana Yoshimoto's 1988 novel, ''Kitchen'':
--> I see two lovers staring over the edge of the cauldron of hell.
--> [[DeathSeeker Do they both wish for death?]] That means their love will end in hell.
--> I couldn't stop laughing.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Mostly interchangeable? Check. Completely inseparable? Check.
* TogetherInDeath: If they are killed. Checking them in No Mercy nets this dialogue: "I see two lovers staring over the edge of the cauldron of hell. Do they both wish for death? That means their love will end in hell. I couldn't stop laughing."
* TranquilFury: If you kill 01, 02 is implied to have this, as he doesn't say much but the flavor text paints him as ''furious'' at you.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You can kill them after you get them to admit their feelings for each other.
* WhatTheHellHero: Killing 02 when they can be spared gets 01 to ask you why you had to do that.
* YouAreNumberSix: Their names really are 01 and 02.

[[caption-width-right:228:''"Ahhhh!!! I'm late!!! I'm late!!! I'm so sorry!!!"'']]

This creature is definitely in the wrong time and space!

* ApologeticAttacker: He's not even trying to attack you; his "attacks" are just being generally clumsy in his attempts to draw you a picture, with a tail strike or tossing paper around. As if his name wasn't a more obvious indication.
* ApologisesALot: It's in his ''[[MeaningfulName name]]''!
* ArtInitiatesLife: He's an artist with a magic pencil, but accidentally draws some monsters that come to life in an attempt to draw a picture of you.
* AuthorAvatar: Of one of the Website/{{Kickstarter}} backers.
* BleachedUnderpants: So Sorry was put in the game when a Kickstarter backer paid thousands of dollars to Toby to put his character in the game. However, said character had been used for [[RuleThirtyFour fetishistic art]] in the past, and was renamed and redrawn for the game to prevent fans from accidentally finding this art while searching the character. As you can imagine, some people didn’t approve. In fact, people were so angered that the original creator was bullied and harassed to the point that Creator/TobyFox himself had to step in, and his name was removed from the artbook and the credits.
* BlindShoulderToss: One of [[BonusBoss So Sorry’s]] attacks is to turn his back to the player and toss crumpled-up paper behind him.
* BonusBoss: So Sorry (yes, that's his name) is very obscure to find. There's a hidden path in Hotland near Sans's hot dog stand. The encounter still doesn't trigger unless all of the elevator stops are available and the internal clock is set to October 10, 8:00pm.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Reduce his health to a certain amount and he'll try to persuade you not to kill him because he doesn't even give out enough EXP to level you up at level 1. [[spoiler:He's right. He only gives one EXP.]]
* TheCameo: One of several characters added to the game by a Kickstarter backer.
* FixedDamageAttack: Inverted. All ''your'' attacks do exactly 1/11 of his HP.
* FlunkyBoss: He'll accidentally summon a few crudely drawn monsters partway through the fight, though they can be sent away easily.
* GuideDangIt: Reaching So Sorry requires having your computer's time set to a ''very'' specific setting and going through the secret path that opens up in a specific place. It is ''very'' unlikely to have this happen by accident.
* HisNameReallyIsBarkeep: One of the first things he says when encountering the player is "I'm so sorry!" He ''is'' So Sorry.
* HolidayMode: Fighting him at all also requires a specific date and time.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Wrong Enemy !?"
* MotorMouth: Noticeably during the fight, his text prints much faster than any other character in the game.
* {{Mundanger}}: See ApologeticAttacker above.
* NiceHat: Five of them, chosen randomly: a party hat, a tiny cowboy hat, a beret, a jester hat, and a fedora.
* OnlyKnownByHisNickname: He does ''have'' a real name[[labelnote:*]]Samael D. Butterdragon[[/labelnote]], being a preexisting character, but that information isn't anywhere in the game. This might be to avoid family-unfriendly Google associations.
* ShyFingerTwiddling: Constantly twiddles his index fingers together in battle.

[[folder:Madjick]]
[[quoteright:160:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/madjick_sprite.png]]
[[caption-width-right:160:''"Please and thank you."'']]

A mercenary monster that uses magic.

* ArmlessBiped: What looks like two [[FloatingLimbs floating hands]] are actually two magic orbs.
* BlindfoldedVision: Madjick seems to be doing this with its hat.
* DeathGlare: You can glare at the orbs to weaken them. Staring at them twice incapacitates it.
* DressingAsTheEnemy: Wielding the Stick against it will trick itinto thinking that you're a wizard just like it.
* EnergyBall: Two of these float around it during the fight. You have to stare them into submission to spare it. One of its attacks also involves three orbs chasing you, which can phase through the box and teleport to the other side.
* EyeObscuringHat: Its eyes are covered by its wizard hat.
* HiredGuns: Just like Knight Knight, Astigmatism, Final Froggit, and Whimsalot.
* InterfaceScrew: It can reverse your controls, which can be stopped by clearing your mind.
* MagicalIncantation: Spouts these during its fight. It includes the classic 'Hocus Pocus' alongside [[StealthPun 'Please and thank you'.]]
* MundaneUtility: In the True Ending, it can use its magic to become a better bowler.
* PerpetualSmiler
* PunnyName: Mad Jick = Magic.
* ShoutOut: One of its magic words goes, "Tinkle Tinkle Hoy!", a reference to ''Manga/OyasumiPunpun'', in which "tinkle tinkle hoy" are the magic words used to summon a god.
* SwordAndSorcerer: Often appears alongside Knight Knight.
* {{Troll}}: It can be satisfied into being spared by letting it interrupt you when you try to talk to it.

[[folder:Knight Knight]]
[[quoteright:187:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/knight_knight.png]]
[[caption-width-right:187:'''''"Adieu."''''']]

This megaton mercenary wields the Good Morningstar.

* BossInMookClothing: While not as proportionately powerful to the player upon encounter as Glyde, she does have the most health of any non-boss monster in the game, and she takes several turns to spare (only two if the player previously hummed to Shyren). Her attacks are also very elaborate for a non-boss enemy.
* {{Cyclops}}: Appears to have one giant, single eye.
* EyesDoNotBelongThere: She has an extra set of eyes and a beak on her abdomen.
* HiredGuns: Just like Madjick, Astigmatism, Final Froggit, and Whimsalot.
* MagicKnight: She uses a mace as well as sun and moon spells.
* PaintingTheMedium: She is unique among monsters in that she does not have text boxes and instead has large, free-floating white text.
* PreMortemOneLiner: Most of her lines are permutations of "Goodnight/goodbye".
* PunnyName: You have the option to sing Knight Knight to sleep. Nighty-night! Also, her weapon is the Good Morningstar.
* TheQuietOne: She only speaks in single short sentences. Even when appearing in New Home to tell the monsters' story, Madjick is the one to tell most of their segment.
* SamusIsAGirl: You wouldn't be able to determine her gender if it weren't for the flavor text describing her swinging her weapon around.
* ShoutOut: Her body shape, with a relatively small head and a very large face on her chest, as well as arguably the usage of celestial bodies as weapons, is heavily reminiscent of ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''.
* SolarAndLunar: She has an attack where she summons a Sun which fires bullets, or a Moon which causes a hail of bullets.
* SwordAndSorcerer: Often appears alongside Madjick.

Hersssss]]

This cobrafied carrot has a headful of tasty snakes.

* AnthropomorphicFood: It's still a vegetable, albeit only in the loosest sense.
* EatTheDog: Bizarrely, this is still an option. (The protagonist will ''slurp the snakes up like spaghetti.'')
* EdibleAmmunition: Similar to asking Vegetoid for "Dinner", you can ask it for "Snacks"... which it will mishear as "Snakes." You can still eat the green one, though.

* HelpfulMook: Enforced. Asking it for "Snacks" works exactly the same as asking Vegetoid for "Dinner".
* {{Medusa}}: Has snakes for "hair" instead of leaves, anyway.
* NightmareFace: Its visage is intimidating, to say the least.
* PunnyName: "Parsnip" with the suggestion of the word "snake".
* {{Sssssnaketalk}}: A few of its lines are this, as seen in the quote above.
* UndergroundMonkey: A more powerful version of Vegetoid.

[[caption-width-right:100:''(slime sounds)'']]

Can't decide on a face.
----
* BlobMonster: Notably more humanoid than the other blob-shaped monsters.
* HardModePerks: Only appears on Hard mode.
* HelpfulMook: If Moldessa appears with other monsters, the "Lie Down" ACT will make them all spareable.
* UndergroundMonkey: Another variant on Moldsmal.
* WingdingEyes: Takes this trope to the logical extreme with an entire Wingding Face. Since its facial features are constantly shifting around, you have to help it settle on a face to spare it.

* BigCreepyCrawlies: Like Migosp, it's a large insect that can summon bugs in its attacks.
* HardModePerks: Only appears on Hard mode.

--> '''Dogamy''': Wait, we’re dogs! [[YourTabooIsOurNormal That stuff’s normal!]]

* BewareOfViciousDog: For the most part[[SubvertedTrope subverted]]. While several guard dogs do in fact [[EverythingIsTryingToKillYou attack you on sight]], and humorously worded signs warn about a few of these encounters, [[BigFriendlyDog not all of these dogs are particularly ill-tempered]], the ones who are only really act this way around unfamiliar humans, and in every case you can literally PetTheDog and befriend it. The sign next to Lesser Dog's guard station parodies the classic warning: "aware of dog, pls pet dog."
