6A folder for talking about tropes that apply to the player characters.
7----
8* BalloonBelly: One of the player character's defining traits.
9* BreathWeapon: The only way the player can attack.
10* TheCameo: The player could originally play as Riki or one of his friends, but since other characters have become DownloadableContent players can play as TheCameo.
11* ExplosiveOverclocking: Having too high of a Pressure drains the player character's health, resulting in their death.
12* FatBastard: The player can play as Bowser and Kraid.
13* FullFrontalAssault: Holo is the only default character to wear any form of clothing, and there aren't many examples in the DownloadableContent characters.
14* HelloInsertNameHere: Even though only one character refers to the player character by name.
15* HeroicMime: They never talk in-game.
16* LongRangeFighter: The only way the player character can destroy turrets is with a BreathWeapon.
17* OhCrap: Most of them have this when they're near full capacity.
18* VillainProtagonist: Can be this when playing as Bowser or Kraid.
19* WalkingShirtlessScene: Holo for the default characters, and of course all of the FullFrontalAssault characters.

22[[folder: '''SPOILER CHARACTER''']]
23'''Lord Zyrom'''
24
25The BigBad, he's the game's only boss and functions as the game's final boss.
26----
27* AdiposeRex: His name is Lord Zyrom, after all.
28* BigBad: Functions as this to the game. [[AllThereInTheManual You'd have to have known the plot beforehand if you wanted to know why you were fighting him.]]
29* BreathWeapon: Unlike the player character, who can only fire one fireball/claw/etc., he fires a MASSIVE stream of fire. Luckily, it only fills the heat gauge.
30* EvilVersusEvil: This happens if the player is playing as one of the villainous characters.
31* FatBastard: Is the fattest character in the vanilla game, next to Raxxar.
32* FiveSecondForeshadowing: Is only mentioned by Ghosty, who is hidden in a very obscure place in world 3-2.
33* FullFrontalAssault: He doesn't wear any clothes at all, unlike the other non-player characters.
34* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: If you didn't read the plot on the website before, you're going to be clueless about why you're fighting him.
35* LargeAndInCharge: He's taller than Kraid, and the player has to be overinflated just to be able to jump over him.
36* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Is a straight black demon with red eyes and a red mouth.
37* VillainousGlutton: Implied, but never directly stated.
38* AVillainNamedZRG: Fits two of the three criteria.

41!!Minor characters
42'''General'''
43
44Tropes that apply to all of the characters.
45* ApatheticCitizens: The player character could be on the verge of bursting and they won't even respond.
46* MinimalistCast: There's less than 15 minor characters in the whole game.
47* PutOnABus: They only appear in their respective level, and then are never mentioned again.
48----
49'''Max'''
50
51The first character the player meets, he's a badger that informs them about the sentries spread throughout the levels [[PutOnABus and then never appears again.]]
52* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: He wears only a red vest.
53* OnlyFriend: The only character the player meets that knows them by name.
54* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Max asks the player to remove all of the turrets so he can get home. He appears in the only level the player can rush through without needing to deflate.
55----
56'''Raxxar'''
57
58An obese shark that's working on the water pipes in world 2-1, he has even less of a role.
59* FullyDressedCartoonAnimal: Unlike any other character in the game, he's fully dressed.
60* MrFixit: He was the only worker sent to fix all of the pipes in world 2.
61* OnlySaneEmployee: He's the only character to ask why you're in the underground.
62* SharkMan: He's a shark.
63* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: He never mentions the turrets, and doesn't appear to be worried about being shot like Max.
64----
65'''Ghosty'''
66
67A ghost the player finds in world 3-2. He's mentioned early on in world 3, and is the only hint to the existence of [[spoiler: Lord Zyrom]] in-game.
68* BedSheetGhost: Like the rest of the characters in world 3.
69* ChekhovsGunman: Is mentioned in 3-1, and [[spoiler: reveals the existence of Lord Zyrom before the player faces him.]]
70* FiveSecondForeshadowing: Is hidden in a very obscure place in world 3-2, just two sub-worlds before [[spoiler: the fight against Zyrom.]] He's also only mentioned by one ghost in world 3-1.
71----
72'''The other ghosts'''
73
74Other ghosts found in world 3-1. One of them is away from the pack, looking for Ghosty.
75* BedSheetGhost: They all share the same sprite, too.
76* NominalImportance: Subverted. All of them are named, but only one of them even talk to the player character.
