Go To

1!!Ratboy Genius
2The titular character. He's a kind-hearted rat-like creature who rules over Ratboy's Kingdom.
3* CatchPhrase: "Knock knock", which he usually says when greeting people.
4* PrimaryColorChampion: As the main character, it's fitting that he has yellow "fur", a blue cap and shorts, and a reddish-orange T-shirt.
5* ProtagonistTitle: The series is named after him.
6* RubberMan: [[spoiler: It's later shown that he has the same stretchy abilities as Little King John.]]
7* SyntheticVoiceActor: His high-pitched voice is clearly computer-generated.
8* YouDirtyRat: Averted. Despite being a "Ratboy", he is friendly and caring.
9
10!!Happyman
11Ratboy's eternally optimistic friend.
12* PerpetualSmiler: He is always smiling, even when he's angry, such as when Little King John steals his factory.
13
14
15!!Green Monster
16Another friend of Ratboy's.
17* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: True to his name, he is a green monster.
18* NonMaliciousMonster: Sure, he's a scary-looking monster, but he's actually a nice guy.
19* PerpetualFrowner: Despite the fact that he's usually in a good mood, he always has an angry expression on his face.
20
21!!Summer Solstice Baby
22Ratboy's girlfriend.
23* LoveTriangle: Between her, Ratboy Genius and Little King John. The series "Ratboy Dreams Minecraft" revolves around the latter's kidnapping of Baby and the former's rescue.
24
25!!Little King John
26A minor antagonist in the series, who seems to be on the way to making a HeelFaceTurn.
27* BreakoutCharacter: He was popular enough to spawn his own series called "[[VillainEpisode The Flood]]", [[spoiler: which later on, is revealed to be a SharedUniverse with "Starship Genius".]]
28* BigBad: In "Dreams Minecraft"
29* BodyHorror: Mostly PlayedForLaughs, but he can stretch his body in the most unnerving way possible.
30* CoolCrown: He wears a golden crown.
31* HeelFaceTurn: The SeriesFinale for "The Flood" cements this entirely. To put it, he started out as the BigBad of "Dreams Minecraft", then the VillainProtagonist for the first few episodes of "The Flood", then a NominalHero in later episodes, and now a flat out [[TheHero Hero]] by the end.
32* JerkAss: Mainly in "Dreams Minecraft", but he still has his moments in The Flood.
33* PrideBeforeAFall: Much as he started off as an [[AristocratsAreEvil villainous king]], The Flood is all about LKJ losing everything he had, surviving the apocalypse, and learning to value other people, which results in [[TookALevelInKindness taking a level in kindness]].
34* PsychopathicManchild: Although he leans more strongly towards "manchild", he has shades of this, such as when he steals Happyman's factory. "This is mine! This is mine! This is mine, too!"
35* RubberMan: He can stretch his neck and limbs to rather disturbing lengths.
36* SyntheticVoiceActor: Like Ratboy, his voice is computer-generated.
37* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Potato knishes, to the point that about half of his VillainSong is about how much he loves them.
38* WickedCultured: He can play the piano and the pipe organ, and one video even features him playing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzRKyaniuAo a fugue that he composed himself]].
39* YouDirtyRat: The only ratboy who is actually evil.
40----
41!!Sue
42* BeneaththeEarth: In Happyman Opera, Fred says that Sue lives "in the underworld," a description which appears to be more literal than biblical.
43* InformedAttractiveness: Bob comments on Sue's beauty when he meets her, even though she's drawn with Dorin's signature crudeness.
44* LosingYourHead: Her head can fall off.
45!!George
46* BloodKnight: George is always spoiling for a fight. This ends up coming back to bite him when his refusal to stop fighting Big Fish Boss when ordered to results in the crash that lands him and his siblings on the Red Planet and destroys his arms.
47* BrokenBird: After the traumatic crash that landed the Galactic Superheroes on the Red Planet, George is left depressed, isolated and so starved for friendship and affection that he's gone a bit off the deep end
48* GeniusBruiser: Handles navigation for the Galactic Superheroes and is also the muscle of the group.
49* IJustWantToBeLoved: Thanks to Fred's efforts in directing visitors away from him, George is left alone and isolated on the Red Planet. He desperately longs to have a friend.
50* MultiArmedAndDangerous: He has four arms. They get ripped off during a crash.
51* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Is absolutely wracked with guilt after kidnapping Bob and discovering he escaped into the Underworld.
52* BodyHorror: His arms get ripped off during a crash.
53!!Fred
54* BitchInSheepsClothing: While Fred is initially friendly and polite, he's quick to turn on people when they don't do what he wants them to. He takes to calling Happyman, Green Monster and Bob names when he sees them not heeding his warnings to stay away from George, takes pleasure in seeing them run through the wringer and calls them fools to their face once they meet up again. He's also very cruel and short with George whenever they meet despite George's only real crime being that he's clingy and a bit annoying.
55* EpilepticFlashingLights: When he talks, his body starts flashing.
56* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Fred doesn't appear to be wearing any pants.
57* IntelligentGerbil: Fred loosely resembles an aardvark.
58* NoMouth: He has a small trunk instead.
59!!Old Man Fingerhead
60* GrumpyOldMan: He's a old man.
61* AHeadAtEachEnd: Young Mouthbottom's face is at the back of his head.
62* ScrewPolitenessImASenior:
63
64!!The Professor
65* TheProfessor: Pretty self-explanatory.
66* StarfishAlien: For lack of a better term. He's a strange, wise being that can choose to not be perceived, knows exactly when certain things will happen, and is constantly shifting and morphing, sometimes to the point where his face gets pulled through itself, or even splits in half from the nose down. Despite the appearance, he's perfectly personable and just wants to help.
67
68!!The Hoo Hoos
69Odd pixie like creatures fond of singing and making mischief.
70* PokemonSpeak: Singing "Hoo" in melody is all they can say.
71
72!!Fish Eaters
73Large serpent like creatures who love to eat fish
74* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: All have big toothy maws, like a crocodile.
75* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Fish!
76* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: One Fish Eater getting particularly snacky is what sets off the Big Fish Boss and starts the latter's campaign of destruction.
77
78!!The Big Fish Boss
79A giant evil space fish who leads his Fish Legion armies in a bid for galactic domination.
80* BigBad: Of "Starship Genius"
81* CatchPhrase: "The Galaxy is for FISH!"
82* ShockAndAwe: He and his Fish Legions are capable of generating and directing a great amount of electrical energy, manifesting in a great Cosmic Thunderbolt capable of destroying entire planets.
83----
84
85!!Sneezy
86A doglike character met by Little King John after he escapes his sunken kingdom, who agrees to tag along on his journey to find a new land.
87* MoralityPet: John's friendship with Sneezy marks the start of the former's HeelFaceTurn
88
89!!Caveman
90An odd man living in the strange underground fortress beneath the Ancient Artifact, who delights at throwing stones at passersby for a game, whether they like it or not.
91* DishingOutDirt: Caveman extrudes stones from his hands, giving him a limitless supply to throw as he pleases.
92* HandsomeHeroicCaveman: Well, as handsome as you can get in this series' style, but he does come around to help Little King John.
93
94!!Mister Big Arms and Very Tall Friend
95Two friends of Ratboy Genius, who journey to Little King John's world in order to ask for his help.
