| 10 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wayne_is_suffering.jpg]] |
| 11 | [[caption-width-right:350:The white boy himself]] |
| 12 | --> ''"[[MemeticMutation THERE IS NO FRIDGE! I LIED!]]"'' |
| 13 | |
| 14 | The leader of the bunch. |
| 15 | ---- |
| 16 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Wayne has ADHD, as clips like [[https://va.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_qhblp9N0Tu1yjbtj3_720.mp4 this]] make clear. |
| 17 | * AudienceParticipation: |
| 18 | ** Wayne played ''[[https://iseeicy.itch.io/66-down 66 Down]]'', a now-defunct game aimed at Twitch streamers where chat is given a prompt and the streamer judges the responses, ultimately sacrificing 66% of the participants. |
| 19 | ** During Wayne's "BSOD Battleships" stream, viewers could donate to attack coordinates on a Battleship board. If Wayne lost, his computer would have bluescreened. |
| 20 | ** Wayne played ''[[VideoGame/FallGuysUltimateKnockout Fall Guys]]'' with Crowd Control, which allowed viewers to use bits to cause obstacles such as inverting his controls, making his character move in specific ways, or covering the screen with yogurt. |
| 21 | ** During his 24 hour ''{{VideoGame/Minecraft}}'' charity stream, viewers could donate money to help or hinder his survival (mostly hinder) in various ways. |
| 22 | * AuthorAppeal: Gorillas/chimps/primates of any kind are a notable recurring theme in Wayne's streams. His mascot, the [=GameChimp=], is a [[{{Pun}} prime(ate)]] example. |
| 23 | * ButtMonkey: Wayne is a favorite target of mockery, from friends and chat alike. |
| 24 | * CompanionCube: [[spoiler:During the Vault, he tells chat that he doesn't care if the Gnome is real or not, since he still cares about him either way. What happens not too long afterwards shows that the Gnome is a good deal more real than the rest of the game.]] |
| 25 | * DistressedDude: Wayne gets abducted by monsters from the other side of his computer screen a lot. |
| 26 | * IdenticalGrandson: Wayne's ancient caveman ancestor, Gub Gar, looks [[SignificantDoubleCasting suspiciously familiar.]] |
| 27 | * KickTheDog: At the end of his second ''VideoGame/TheLordOfTheRingsGollum'' stream, he took the plushie of the movie Gollum [[spoiler:and injected euthanasia into his brain as punishment for the game being so bad. The doll bled through the neck for around half a minute before he flatlined.]] |
| 28 | * LethalChef: Even ignoring [[MasochistsMeal what he was making,]] Wayne's skills in the kitchen certainly left something to be desired. |
| 29 | --> '''Baaulp''': "No offense, dude, but I think you should like, watch a video on how to cut with a knife." |
| 30 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: A lot of new viewers are surprised to learn Wayne isn't his real name, but instead came from when his Steam [[OnlineAlias alias]] was Creator/WayneBrady. |
| 31 | * NoIndoorVoice: He's acknowledged how loud his voice can be, especially when passionate. |
| 32 | ** Also applies in-game when playing ''{{VideoGame/Phasmophobia}}'' with Gir and Scorpy, where his audio in the lobby was so loud that they had to stay away from him. |
| 33 | * OffingTheOffspring: Wayne has either personally killed, or been directly responsible for the death of, each of his sons. Multiple times. |
| 34 | * PersonAsVerb: Any time Wayne messes up, chat will declare that he "Wayned it." |
| 35 | * SirSwearsalot: The worst of the bunch, [[LampshadeHanging and he knows it.]] |
| 36 | * TheyKilledKennyAgain: Wayne is oddly prone to being kidnapped by demons and spirits, but he's usually fine afterwards. |
| 37 | * UnknownRival: With Markiplier. In one installment of Markiplier's "Try Not to Laugh" videos, he watched an edited clip of one of Wayne's ''VideoGame/Fallout4 VR'' [=VODs=]. To Wayne's dismay, he neither gave credit for the video nor laughed at it. This sparked a half-serious enmity with Mark which lasts to this day. |
| 38 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Wayne with many of his friends, but Gir and Mira especially. |
| 39 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: An incredibly [[FanDisservice unwanted]] example occurs when he is returned to the physical realm by Domer, shirtless and covered in sweat and/or oil.[[note]]It was baby oil.[[/note]] |
| 40 | [[/folder]] |
| 41 | |
| 42 | [[folder:Scorpy (Socpens)]] |
| 43 | [[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/scorpen.jpg]] |
| 44 | [[caption-width-right:300:*drops microphone*]] |
| 45 | --> ''"BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB"'' |
| 46 | |
| 47 | If you want bizarre, look no further than Scorpy[[note]]or Moupi[[/note]]. |
| 48 | ---- |
| 49 | * AnimalMotifs: Scorpy is associated with scorpions, due to his name, and snails, because his name started as "Scorpy the Wondersnail." |
| 50 | * AudienceParticipation: |
| 51 | ** During his first Best Buy escape stream, he interpreted donation messages read by a TTS voice as messages playing over the store's intercom. The second Best Buy stream took this a step further by removing onscreen notifications and using a filter on the TTS to imitate a store's PA. |
| 52 | ** He played ''Baby Run'', a game where subscriptions spawned lights and donations spawned babies that followed Scorpy around. It found a spiritual successor in the ''Channel 17 Production Desk'', a pre-stream show where subscriptions spawned babies (among other stream-related models) labeled with the subscriber's name, bit donations spawned "Lunchables hearts," and other donations produced a variety of effects. In both, a glass ball would drop if a chat member shattered one with channel points. |
| 53 | * BadLiar: When Scorpy is an Impostor in ''VideoGame/AmongUs'', he does best when he speaks as little as possible. |
| 54 | * BilingualBonus: Scorpy's French-Canadian, which comes up occasionally, especially with his fellow Canuck, Holly. |
| 55 | * CloudCuckooLander: Scorpy is one of the wackiest crew members, to say the least. |
| 56 | ** Exemplified by his [[VideoGame/TheJackboxPartyPack Quiplash]] answers. |
| 57 | --> '''Wayne''': "Scorpy, your gibberish, it's cherished, we love it, but I don't know what that is. I don't know what 'had on Momoa Gears of War' is." |
| 58 | ** During her appearance on ''[[https://podbay.fm/p/perfectly-generic-podcast/e/1590983556 Perfectly Generic Podcast]]'', Holly recounts that the night before the finale of HLVRAI, she told Scorpy about how she was extremely anxious about performing well. When he told her to not worry about it and just think about ''VideoGame/HeavenlySword'' for the Playstation, Holly was so baffled that it knocked out all her anxiety. |
| 59 | * DeadpanSnarker: As his turn as [[WebVideo/HalfLifeButTheAIIsSelfAware Benrey]] shows, Scorpy has a gift for delivering bizarre lines in complete seriousness. |
| 60 | * FriendToAllChildren: He said on his Tumblr that he loves babies, and his Twitch profile picture used to be of a baby. He is also drawn as/represented by that baby on occasion. |
| 61 | * FriendToAllLivingThings: He once stopped during an ''Animal Crossing'' stream [[https://va.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_qeg3cdGkjP1wtdve2.mp4 to let a spider out of his house,]] and he has also mentioned feeding a fly milk from a spoon in the past. On his Instagram story, he shared a video of himself coaxing a fly onto his finger. |
| 62 | * HellIsThatNoise: Whenever Scorpy says "We're in a loop!", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDD4YTvxdk0 absolute cacophony]] is sure to follow. Even without loops, his streams have a lot of ear-breakingly loud noises. |
| 63 | * TheQuietOne: Other members of the team have said that until he began streaming, Scorpy rarely talked outside of text. |
| 64 | * TookALevelInKindness: Discussed in the podcast, where Wayne recalls how their first impression of Scorpy was him inexplicably becoming an admin on their [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 TF2]] server, only to use his power to put mocking hats on people and spawn pumpkins. |
| 65 | --> '''Wayne''': "He was a FUCKING DICK... now he's one of the nicest people I know." |
| 66 | * {{Retraux}}: A typical aesthetic of all of Scorpy's projects, especially DeliberateVHSQuality. |
| 67 | * SensoryAbuse: |
| 68 | ** Scorpy is very prone to this, to the point that his old low-quality microphone has its own Twitch emote. |
| 69 | --> '''Scorpy''': "[[https://clips.twitch.tv/BloodyFuriousLEDKeyboardCat Am I loud?]] '''Am I loud?''' '''''Am I loud?'''''... [[ApologeticAttacker Sorry.]]" |
| 70 | ** In one stream, his subscriber alert was a woman saying "awooga" that would devolve into a loud drone. [[SchmuckBait Listen to it]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mUn36pqvws here]]. This sound has since become his 10,000 bits alert. |
| 71 | * ShoutOut: |
| 72 | ** Scorpy's baby comes from [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhOW93mMgpg this]] video. |
| 73 | ** Scorpy is a big WebVideo/Mega64 fan. His Discord profile picture, as shown in Wayne's HLVRAI commentary streams, is a picture of Rocco Botte. Two Garrett Hunter videos (quoted by chat as "Jesus is Lora" and "HHHHH") also make occasional cameos in his streams. |
| 74 | * StylisticSuck: Overlapping with {{Retraux}}, another aesthetic of Scorpy's projects. |
| 75 | * TVHeadRobot: Scorpy's preferred way to be drawn in fanart (when he isn't being drawn as his own human self, that is.) |
| 76 | [[/folder]] |

| 79 | [[folder:Holly (Hollowtones)]] |

| 82 | --> ''"btw the whites of an egg is yummy & the yolk is too"'' |
| 83 | |
| 84 | Violent, but in a way that warms you to your soul. |
| 85 | ---- |
| 86 | * AcCENTUponTheWrongSylLABle: She has a habit of doing this. |
| 87 | --> Holly: [[https://www.twitch.tv/hollow_tones/clip/HotFriendlyHumanStinkyCheese "Why did it go to the BInoculars?!"]] |
| 88 | * AnimalMotifs: Holly is associated with birds, thanks to her mascot Bibi. She is also associated with lions on occasion. |
| 89 | * BilingualBonus: Holly is French-Canadian, much to Wayne's horror. This comes up sometimes with her fellow Canuck Scorpy. |
| 90 | * LaughThemselvesSick: Holly has mentioned laughing so hard [[https://clips.twitch.tv/TriumphantRelievedMinkPeoplesChamp she has to grab her inhaler]]. |
| 91 | * {{Leitmotif}}: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVbGzl0Otmg Capital Theme]] from ''VideoGame/SimCity'' has become the tune which heralds her imminent appearance on stream. Members of chat will begin saying "She approaches!", or similar, as soon as it starts playing. |
| 92 | * ToHellAndBack: Holly visited Hell to search for Wayne when he went missing after the ''Simpsons'' VR disaster. He wasn't there, and Holly said it was suspiciously empty, almost as if someone [[CallBack summoned all the demons away]] (see the RunningGag section on the main page.) |
| 93 | * SeriousBusiness: She tried as hard as she could to avoid playing ''Peppa Pig: World Adventure'''s release version. Every time she exited to the Switch's homescreen, it kept telling her to update the game, until it eventually forced an update onto her, in which she tried to stop the update or revert it to the original version. She specifically wanted to avoid updating the game in case it [[GoodBadBugs patched out some bugs]]. |
| 94 | * WomanOfAThousandVoices: Holly can do an impressive range of voices. Her voices crop up most often as original characters, like Southern-fried Texas Ranger Mama Bear and the gruff warrior the Wretch from her playthrough of ''VideoGame/DarkSoulsI''. |
| 95 | [[/folder]] |
| 96 | |
| 97 | [[folder:Gir ([=MasterGir=])]] |
| 98 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/p_jqkevm_400x400.jpg]] |
| 99 | [[caption-width-right:350:]] |
| 100 | --> ''"Now what are you exposing me to?"'' |
| 101 | |
| 102 | Your grumpy neighborhood robot. |
| 103 | ---- |
| 104 | * AudienceParticipation: Gir played ''[[VideoGame/ClusterTruck Clustertruck]]'' with Twitch integration, which allowed chat to vote on obstacles such as making the trucks thinner or wider, making them bouncy, or adding lasers to them. |
| 105 | * AuthorAppeal: He loves to fish. Not fishing games, though. Only real fishing. |
| 106 | * AxCrazy: Gir acted like this during Scorpy's second ''[[VideoGame/AnimalCrossing Animal Crossing]]'' stream, mainly by literally chasing Scorpy around with an axe. Scorpy narrowly avoided [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRmlUu-zDo0&t=8454 getting an axe to the back of the head.]] |
| 107 | * BizarreHumanBiology: Gir apparently has abnormally long lungs. |
| 108 | * ChildHater: By his own description. It's unknown exactly how genuine he is about this, though. |
| 109 | * DeadpanSnarker: Gir has his moments. |
| 110 | * HellIsThatNoise: On the rare occasions that he turns on media shares, Gir tends to get some truly bizarre [[https://clips.twitch.tv/InterestingConsiderateHummingbirdM4xHeh "music."]] |
| 111 | * ManOfAThousandVoices: Gir is an amateur voice actor, and he has an impressive range of impressions to call upon. From [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Scout]], to Morshu from [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames the]] ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames Zelda]]'' [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaCDiGames CD-i games]], to his ''[[VideoGame/HalfLife1 Half-Life]]'' [[VideoGame/HalfLife1 scientist]] impression, Gir is a man of many talents. |
| 112 | * MilitaryBrat: Gir's dad was in the military, and he spent his childhood moving from place to place. |
| 113 | * NatureLover: Loves the outdoors as much as he loves fishing. His dream house would be an isolated cabin by a lake. |
| 114 | * TheNondescript: Describes himself as having an [[TheEveryman everyman's]] face and an everyman's voice. Chat describes it as White Man Syndrome. |
| 115 | * OnlySaneMan: Next to Log, Gir tends to take this role most often. |
| 116 | * PunnyName: Gir's Discord server is named the "[=MasterGirver=]", or just the "Girver" for short. |
| 117 | * ShoutOut: Yes, he's named after [[WesternAnimation/InvaderZim that]] Gir. |
| 118 | * TeamDad: He's been called "the dad friend" by chat, and he admits that he has a natural tendency to try and round everyone up and keep things together. |
| 119 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Gir loves ramen. If he's eating food on stream, there's a good chance it's ramen. He even has a ramen emote! |
| 120 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Gir to Wayne. You could also make a good case for Gir being this with his own chat. |
| 121 | [[/folder]] |
| 122 | |
| 123 | [[folder:Mira (Mirakurutaimu)]] |
| 124 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/efdvvwswsaa0bwo.png]] |
| 125 | --> ''"DID YOU JUST CALL CHUCK E. CHEESE A RESTAURANT?!"'' |
| 126 | |
| 127 | Your friendly neighborhood imp. |
| 128 | ---- |
| 129 | * AudienceParticipation: |
| 130 | ** Mira played ''66 Down'', a now-defunct game aimed at Twitch streamers where chat is given a prompt and the streamer judges the responses, ultimately sacrificing 66% of the participants. |
| 131 | ** During one of her streams viewers began casting "spells" on her that affected her onscreen avatar. This included [[https://clips.twitch.tv/ShySavageSquirrelAllenHuhu changing her size]], [[https://clips.twitch.tv/SoftNurturingPicklesHumbleLife flipping her upside down]], and even [[https://clips.twitch.tv/PlumpSmellyMartenArgieB8 turning her into]] a [[VideoGame/RuneScape gnome child]]. |
| 132 | * AxCrazy: Mira is this as an Impostor in ''VideoGame/AmongUs'', sometimes leading her to make very obvious and blatant kills in front of the others just for the sake of it. Her self-proclaimed strategy is simple: as soon as she ''can'' kill, she ''will'' kill. |
| 133 | * MilitaryBrat: At least one of Mira's parents worked for or in the military. |
| 134 | * TheNightOwl: Since she lives in Finland, any streams she does with other members of RTVS are in the dead of night for her. |
| 135 | * ShoutOut: Mira’s imp persona, named Mimi, bears some resemblance to Music/HatsuneMiku (her original mascot prior to Mimi's creation.) |
| 136 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Mira to Wayne. |

| 141 | [[caption-width-right:255:Uh...]] |
| 142 | --> ''"So... what did you guys have for dinner?"'' |
| 143 | |
| 144 | A celebrated meal enthusiast. |
| 145 | ---- |
| 146 | * AGodAmI: Averted. Despite having free reign over recreations of his friends (or at least the sitcom version of his friends) in ''VideoGame/TheSims'', he mostly lets them do whatever they want and enjoys seeing them perform mundane tasks. |
| 147 | * {{Angrish}}: The sounds Baaulp makes when he's panicking have been compared to a turkey or "[[WesternAnimation/CourageTheCowardlyDog Courage]] trying to tell Muriel about the monsters." Exhibit A: [[https://clips.twitch.tv/BlightedThoughtfulFerretCmonBruh this clip.]] |
| 148 | * BigEater: Baaulp is this, by his own admission. In addition to apparently having [[BizarreHumanBiology abnormally strong teeth]], he once ate ''40 chicken wings'' by himself. |
| 149 | * FailedASpotCheck: Baaulp can be ''very'' oblivious, often failing to notice big things right in front of or around him. The most infamous incident of this is probably the moment during the first ''Among Us'' stream where Baaulp walked into a room containing Wayne's dead body... and failed to notice it entirely. [[https://youtube.com/clip/Ugkx8R4VFqTxj1-W-OwF2ebWVNG3eYG6l7Bn also showcased extremely well in this clip.]] |
| 150 | * MartyrWithoutACause: His foremost tactic while playing ''VideoGame/AmongUs'' is, if he falls under any suspicion whatsoever, to demand he be voted out immediately, no matter how much of a detriment this would be to his team or how easily he could be exonerated otherwise. |
| 151 | * OpaqueNerdGlasses: Typically drawn wearing these in fanart. |
| 152 | * WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: Baaulp's British accent is [[https://youtu.be/3RiqTH_yOMM?t=1455 something to behold]]. |
| 153 | [[/folder]] |
| 154 | |
| 155 | [[folder:Log (Logmore/Logblaster)]] |
| 156 | The team artist, and possessor of a thousand other gifts. |
| 157 | ---- |
| 158 | * AnimalMotifs: Log is sometimes depicted as his social media profile pictures, a banjo-playing mouse. However, he's said that he prefers not to be represented by this mouse, since he just thinks it's cute. |
| 159 | * DeadpanSnarker: Log can be utterly [[https://clips.twitch.tv/BusySilkyWaterNotLikeThis devastating]] given the chance. |
| 160 | * FlatJoy: Log very rarely emotes above his normal pseudo-monotone voice, even when he's laughing or gushing about something he finds interest in. |
| 161 | * MobileSuitHuman: He's sometimes portrayed as one in fanart, piloted by the mouse from his profile pictures. |
| 162 | * NiceGuy: Described by his friends as exceptionally pleasant and a "Southern hospitality-type dude". |
| 163 | * OnlySaneMan: Generally the calmest and least shenanigans-prone of the streaming crew, meaning he often falls into this role by default. |
| 164 | * TheStoic: Easily the least emotive of the crew. Best exemplified during their games of ''Among Us'', where Log's permanent deadpan and calm demeanor makes it really difficult for the others to guess when he's the impostor. |
| 165 | * WebComics: Log is the author and illustrator of two webcomics, ''[[https://www.webtoons.com/en/challenge/gather-ye-power/list?title_no=327553 Gather Ye Power]]'' and the more [[Main/ShonenDemographic shonen]]-inspired ''[[https://medibang.com/book/hp2007161108107420014484902/ Headhunter's Iliad]]''. |

| 169 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yegqxq13_400x400.jpg]] |
| 170 | The main producer of Wayne's high-concept streams, and a talented drummer/crossword solver in his own right. |
| 171 | ---- |
| 172 | * AllDrummersAreAnimals: {{Averted|Trope}} in the traditional sense, as Trog is generally a very focused drummer who prefers technical genres like MathRock or ProgressiveRock. Though this trope is [[PlayingWithATrope played with]] slightly when you consider Trog is generally depicted as a dog in fan art and has a Fursona, probably making him a more literal example of this trope. |
| 173 | * AnimalMotifs: Trog is either depicted as a Chihuahua wearing a cowboy hat, or his fursona Plink, a cowboy-hat-wearing dog with pink hair. |
| 174 | * AuthorAppeal: Very rarely does he do a ''Clone Hero'' stream without playing at least one song by Music/DreamTheater, Music/LiquidTensionExperiment, Music/{{Rush|Band}}, and/or Music/{{Haken}}. |
| 175 | * ButtMonkey: Trog is this during any ''VideoGame/AIDungeon2'' stream where he is actually playing a character, as his characters have a startling tendency to die very early on compared to everyone else's. |
| 176 | * CaptainObvious: [[PlayedForLaughs Played for laughs]] during Wayne's fake AGDQ run of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64''. |
| 177 | --> '''Trog''': "Mario is Italian... He has blue overalls." |
| 178 | * HappilyMarried: To his lovely husband Trevor. |
| 179 | * LaughThemselvesSick: Trog apparently once ''passed out from laughter'' during a call. |
| 180 | * LikeIsLikeAComma: Trog is a major offender. |
| 181 | * OnlySaneMan: If Gir and Log aren't around, he'll usually take the role as the most grounded member of the RTVS crew. |
| 182 | * ShoutOut: Trog is named after Trogdor from ''WebAnimation/HomestarRunner''. |

| 187 | |
| 188 | [This space intentionally left blank.] |
| 189 | ---- |
| 190 | * CloudCuckooLander: His streams are easily the most bizarre out of the entire crew, and what is known of his personality suggests the same is true of the man himself. |
| 191 | * HostileShowTakeover: After Scorpy's Gameclam stream, Moupi "hacked" his account in order to promote his own console, the Ouyster. |
| 192 | * MindScrew: Good luck understanding ''anything'' that happens during a Moupi stream. Even when he seems to be attempting some form of a narrative, don't expect it to make any amount of sense. |
| 193 | * OutOfFocus: Invoked, as he'd genuinely like to stay out of the spotlight. It's to the point that nobody knows anything about him, even those on the team. |
| 194 | * SensoryAbuse: Literally ''every single stream'' Moupi does. |
| 195 | * ShoutOut: Moupi is represented by Billy the Puppet from ''Film/SawI''. He also sometimes uses the [[VideoGame/{{Deltarune}} Spamton G. Spamton]] plush to represent himself. |
| 196 | * SixthRanger: Thanks to his hermetic nature, his appearances are few and far between. [[IWorkAlone Even when he appears, he tends to work on his own with minimal assistance.]] |
| 197 | * TheSpook: The amount of concrete facts known about Moupi can be counted on one hand, and even that may be stretching it. The facts are: he is French and he has an awful computer. Exaggerated with the revelation that the other members of Radio [=TV=] Solutions know just about as much about Moupi as the audience does, aka next-to-nothing. The only thing we know for certain is that he is probably real. Probably. |
| 198 | * StylisticSuck: Moupi's streams are totally incomprehensible. If something can be done to decrease the audio/video quality, it ''will'' be done. One could make a very good argument that they count as UsefulNotes/{{Dada}}. |

| 260 | ---- |
| 261 | * AndIMustScream: Trapped in the void forever for his crimes. |
| 262 | * AmbiguousSituation: He's either Wayne's brother, or [[spoiler: one of Wayne's aliases, used so he could play NSFW games on stream]]. Regardless, Jeff Bezos does not let Wayne off lightly for this. |
| 263 | * DramaticSpaceDrifting: His eventual fate. |

| 278 | |
| 279 | Wayne's baby boy. Created by Trog from Wayne's seed and leftover code, he lives to torment his Daddy Way Way. |
| 280 | ---- |
| 281 | * AIIsACrapshoot: He... doesn't quite work right. |
| 282 | * OnlyOneName: Like most of Wayne's sons, until given the last name "Peppers" by Creed the spirit medium. |
| 283 | * RobotKid: Whatever Joshie is, he's definitely not human. |
| 284 | * SensoryAbuse: Joshua was capable of producing a loud foghorn sound. |
| 285 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Cashews. |
| 286 | * TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: Obsessed with sex, doing drugs, going to church, and saying slurs. |
| 287 | * TheyKilledKennyAgain: He's died and come back multiple times - once by Wayne, and once by Moupi. That said, he seemingly die for good after "Joshua's Day Out" ended with Wayne pulling the plug on Joshua's server.[[labelnote:explanation]]The "server" Wayne unplugged was his wi-fi modem, and the app that provided Josh's voice started experiencing technical difficulties after this, [[HarsherInHindsight meaning Wayne really did pull the plug on Joshua.]][[/labelnote]] |
| 288 | ** And once again, during Wayne's 24 hour ''Minecraft VR'' stream, when a chat-spawned mob pushes Wayne into another chat-spawned mob named after Joshy, hitting him with his sword. |
| 289 | ** Yet again in the "Joshua's Seance" Halloween stream, and this time, he's actually given a physical form, before he's killed yet again by being run over by Creed. |

| 295 | |
| 296 | Yet another of Wayne's sons. An elf, created from Wayne's seed after all the Christmas elves died of fog machine-based complications. Debuted, and was subsequently killed in the 2020 Faxmas stream. |
| 297 | ---- |
| 298 | * BlackBox: Turns faxes into toys somehow. ''Wet'' toys. They gotta be wet. |
| 299 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: He looks like Wayne's deformed head on a tiny elf body. |

| 310 | [[folder:"Grandpa"]] |
| 311 | [[caption-width-right:255:Don't forget to wipe your hands!]] |
| 312 | |
| 313 | At the beginning Wayne's "Final Self Ceremony" on February 10th, 2024, the day he was meant to turn 10,000 days old[[note]]27 years, 4 months, and 17 days[[/note]], an extra "0" was suddenly added to the day count, apparently making Wayne ''100,000 days old''[[note]]''273 years,'' 9 months, and 13 days[[/note]]. The Wayne we know and love was consequently replaced by a very, ''very'' old man attempting to stream [[GamesOfTheElderly bingo]] through a haze of [[TechnologicallyBlindElders aggressive malware]] and [[ScatterbrainedSenior dementia]]. |
| 314 | ---- |
| 315 | * AmbiguouslyRelated: When referred to as "Wayne" by the chat, he asks, [[WhamLine "Who's Wayne?"]] However, this could just mean that he [[NameAmnesia forgot his own name.]] As it's unclear whether he's Wayne himself or someone else, he's been placed in the Wayne's Family category. |
| 316 | --> '''unrelentingterror''': "grandpa could you tell us your name?" |
| 317 | --> '''Grandpa''': [[MathematiciansAnswer "Why, yes, I can."]] |
| 318 | ** Is "Linda" his wife or his nurse? He never clarifies. |
| 319 | * BleakAbyssRetirementHome: About halfway through the stream, he reveals that he lives in one. |
| 320 | * CompanionCube: He talks to the genie-themed malware popup that constantly harasses him as if it's a concerned friend. It gets to the point that he starts crying and telling it that he loves it while it [[Main/Bathos demands his password for the umpteenth time.]] |
| 321 | * ElderAbuse: Whoever "Linda" is, she has a hand in enforcing the retirement home's dictatorial control over him specifically. Apparently, all stream donations are sent directly to Linda, who decides how to spend it. She also prevents him from swearing in the rec room. In the past, she's apparently decided to limit his computer time, although that might be because Grandpa was trying to download malware. |
| 322 | * ElderlyAilmentRambling: Zig-Zagged. Although he doesn't draw attention to it, context clues make it evident that Grandpa is on a plethora of medications, can't get too excited because of a pacemaker, and occasionally needs oxygen from a hose, all on top of his near-debilitating dementia. Twitch chat repeatedly feared (or [[MercyKill hoped]]) that he would outright die on stream. |
| 323 | * GamesOfTheElderly: He spends the entire stream playing bingo- nominally, at least. |
| 324 | * RacistGrandpa: Downplayed. He doesn't express any bigoted opinions, but he ''does'' go on a RamblingOldManMonologue about how [[ArtisticLicenseHistory German scientists invented the free space in bingo during World War II]], and declares his thanks to them for doing so. |
| 325 | --> '''Grandpa''': "Now, [[Main/Understatement World War II, it was bad,]] but... I love my free space." |
| 326 | * ScatterbrainedSenior: His defining character trait. He |
| 327 | * TechnologicallyBlindElders: His stream is ''plagued'' with popups, including a [[UsefulNotes/MicrosoftOfficeAssistant Clippy]]-esque genie that |

| 333 | [[folder:[=BT=]]] |
| 334 | The dread demon who haunts Scorpy's streams. |
| 335 | ---- |
| 336 | * DemonicPossession: He can seemingly do this to Scorpy. While playing a Jonas Brothers game on the DS, Scorpy became eerily silent and entered his name as "evil." BT briefly appeared on screen as he snapped back to normal. |
| 337 | * TheDreaded: Scorpy and chat tend to react in fear whenever he is mentioned or threatened. |
| 338 | * TheScottishTrope: If his true name is said, he is summoned to bring chaos. [[spoiler:It's Buff Thomas.]] |
| 339 | [[/folder]] |
| 340 | |
| 341 | [[folder:Domer]] |
| 342 | ''Something'' that takes the form of [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson]]. |
| 343 | ---- |
| 344 | * AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: He looks small when he first appears... but then he keeps floating closer to the screen, towering over Wayne enough to hold him in his hands. |
| 345 | * DemonicPossession: He offhandedly mentioned [[https://clips.twitch.tv/SarcasticFunnyHerbsMikeHogu "possessing the body of a man"]] and briefly [[https://clips.twitch.tv/CalmKitschyHamburgerUnSane released Wayne]] to play [[VideoGame/GarrysMod GMod Surf]] during a Gir stream. |
| 346 | * ThePigPen: Maybe? When it returns Wayne, amongst other damages, Wayne sustains a "natural ''Simpsons'' wetness", making him very damp. |
| 347 | [[/folder]] |
| 348 | |
| 349 | [[folder:Joey Wrong]] |
| 350 | A vaguely British child who appeared on Scorpy's "Mou-esque Games" stream. |
| 351 | ---- |
| 352 | * AmbiguouslyRelated: Joey is directly stated ''not'' to be Moupi while at the same time being stated to be related to him in ''some'' way. In fact, Moupi has used his TTS voice [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arb0ELGMyl8&feature=youtu.be&t=4300 during his streams.]] |
| 353 | * WhaleEgg: Joey is presumably at least somewhat human, given that he said he looked like a statue of the Buddha, but he also said he was "born of an egg." Make of this what you will. |
| 354 | [[/folder]] |
| 355 | |
| 356 | [[folder:I.M. Meen]] |
| 357 | The title character of ''VideoGame/IMMeen'', though with a signature RTVS twist. |
| 358 | ---- |
| 359 | * AIIsACrapshoot: Possibly. If he's just an artificial intelligence inside of the game implanted by Tucker, then it's unlikely Tucker designed him with harassing and threatening Wayne, his friends, and Tucker himself in mind. |
| 360 | * BreakingTheFourthWall: In Wayne's version of ''I.M. Meen'', he starts off talking to the player character, then to Wayne, then to the other people in Wayne's Discord call.[[note]]It's actually Wayne's friends using a text-to-speech program based on his voice, much like Joshua or Slump.[[/note]] |
| 361 | * ElectronicSpeechImpediment: His voice doesn't quite work right.[[note]]This is a result of his voice being imperfectly cloned by the AI that generates the text-to-speech voice.[[/note]] |
| 362 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He loves his wife, he loves his labyrinth, and he loves his guardians. |
| 363 | * MindScrew: At the end of his stream, [[spoiler: he "doxxes" Wayne and takes over his computer. The stream ends with a ''[[Film/TheShining The Shining]]''-style ending, zooming in on a picture of the cover of ''VideoGame/IMMeen'', with Wayne edited in next to Meen, implying that Wayne's always been in the game.]] |
| 364 | * {{Polyamory}}: He's in an open relationship with his wife, whom he loves, and his partners include his "Tinder date", and possibly his labyrinth itself. He also uses Grindr, and frequently hits on Wayne, between threats on his life. |
| 365 | * WouldHurtAChild: Whenever Wayne saves a child trapped in the labyrinth, Meen kills them. |

| 368 | [[folder:Biggie Smalls]] |
| 369 | !![[Music/TheNotoriousBIG Biggie Smalls]] |
| 370 | --> ''Put them up on the sacrificial hook!'' |
| 371 | Better known for his rap career, he joins Wayne and co. to teach Wayne how to be better at ''VideoGame/DeadByDaylight''. He alternately offers good or incorrect advice. |
| 372 | ---- |
| 373 | * TheAce: He's apparently very good at ''Dead by Daylight'', despite his sketchy advice. He helps Wayne get a pretty decent win streak. |
| 374 | * CaptainObvious: When his advice isn't inaccurate, it's this, including telling Wayne to use the WASD keys to move. |
| 375 | * CloudCuckoolander: Occasionally tells Wayne to play as a character that isn't in the game, like "Film/{{Gremlins}}", or "[[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Super Mario]]". |
| 376 | * CowardlyLion: Sometimes he gets so scared watching Wayne that he can't speak. Despite this, he's supposedly very good at ''Dead by Daylight'', a horror game. |
| 377 | * GuestHost: When Wayne was afflicted by too many ailments to stream, he stepped in as the host of the Grand Tour. |
| 378 | * {{Manchild}}: Easily scared by enemies in video games, and requests that Wayne read him a bedtime story. |
| 379 | * MoodSwinger: Given that he's a voice controlled by multiple people, he changes his opinions frequently. |
| 380 | * MotorMouth: Biggie has a tendency to say every thought he has in long strings of mostly-unrelated sentences. |
| 381 | * MultipleChoicePast: It's unclear whether he's the ghost of Biggie Smalls, a clone, or a digital recreation. |
| 382 | [[/folder]] |
| 383 | |
| 384 | [[folder:Creed]] |
| 385 | A spirit medium that Wayne hired to speak to Joshua from beyond the grave. |
| 386 | ---- |
| 387 | * CelebrityResemblance: He is, quote, "NOT Creator/SylvesterStallone"[[note]]To explain, he's played by Jade Roberts, an actor and Sylvester Stallone impersonator.[[/note]] |
| 388 | * FaceHeelTurn: After storming off at the end of the stream, while insisting that he's not mad, he shows up when Wayne takes Joshua out into the real world, where he promptly crushes Joshy with his car. |

| 390 | [[/folder]] |
| 391 | |
| 392 | [[folder:Sonic Krazy Kult]] |
| 393 | A number of young users of the SONIC KRAZY KULT forum. In reality, a group of online personae taken by the RTVS crew that mimic early 2000s kids on the internet. Nobody knows who is who (besides the admin [=SlashFirex88=], played by Wayne) and people can make multiple accounts. |
| 394 | ---- |
| 395 | * AscendedFanboy: [=darkchaoEVIL=] was not played by a member of the RTVS crew, but rather was a fan who managed to make an account before the site was publically revealed. Wayne says that he was fine with her presence on the forum and would have let her stay if she hadn't broken kayfabe just before the stream. |
| 396 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Beyond his site-altering signature, THE JESTER really doesn't tend to follow the current thread topic most of the time, as his posts are mainly about juggling balls and other common clown acts. |
| 397 | * TheComicallySerious: [=BingotheWolfHound=] is adamant about maintaining the rules of the forum and speaks much more formally than the rest of the userbase. His behavior is aptly showcased in a thread dedicated to showing off ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' toys, where he says that toys are for kids immediately before double-posting to ask where another person got their Knuckles plush. |
| 398 | * DarkerAndEdgier: Some of the users are stereotypical edgelord teens, such as [=D4RKC04L3S3NC3=] and [=bloodySky=]. |
| 399 | * EvilerThanThou: [=bloodySky=]'s character in shimmeringsilverwings' roleplay plans on betraying Satan to take control of Hell for himself. |
| 400 | * LighterAndSofter: shimmeringsilverwings and [=aMy_LuVr=] have more outwardly cutesy and lighthearted presences. |
| 401 | * MonsterClown: Downplayed as THE JESTER is truly harmless, but their avatar is a rather creepy GIF of a laughing clown and their presence on a page turns it purple thanks to the HTML script in their signature. |
| 402 | * NervousWreck: johnnychaos constantly worries about the possibility of himself getting banned, to the point where he starts being unable to sleep at night because of implied panic attacks, is implied to have gotten his fingernails infected somehow, refuses to take part in an [=RP=] out of fear of breaking the rules, and possibly develops tinnitus (he compares the cacophony of music that Sonic interjects into his posts to the noise he hears when he tries to sleep). |
| 403 | * PaintingTheMedium: shimmeringsilverwings speaks in small text, [=D4RKC0AL3S3NC3=] uses all caps and bold text, and THE JESTER's signature turns the entire page purple. |
| 404 | ** A user by the name of kraven made a thread in Off Topic [[SchmuckBait telling people not to click on it]]. Its content was of him getting annoyed with the user for clicking anyway and vowing to "erase [their] mind now", followed by an image of an optical illusion. Staying on the page for a few seconds caused everything to slowly fade to white as ''VideoGame/RuneScape'' music played in the background. |
| 405 | * SocialDeductionGame: Wayne says that the forum turned into one, trying to figure out who's who from subtle details. |
| 406 | * {{Troll}}: THE JESTER is a harmless instance, as his signature features an HTML script that turns the page purple, replaces the header image at the top of the page with a GIF of a jester, makes all the text uppercase, and plays loud, creepy circus music. sonic, on the other hand, essentially killed any forum they posted in by making the text into an animated marquee that reads backwards and constantly scrolls offscreen while playing six instances of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMtYGAp0Xp4 THIS VIDEO CONTAINS RED ZONE]]", then made a thread in the Reports section calling out the people who were reporting him while seeming oblivious to what his signature was doing to the poor site. |
| 407 | * VagueAge: It's generally agreed upon that they're all rather young, but some are unclear, such as Bingo claiming to be 19. |
| 408 | |

| 410 | |
| 411 | [[folder:Bad Boe Jamo]] |
| 412 | A once forgotten mascot making his long-awaited return in ''Bad Boe Jamo in: Operation Peace'' on the [=GameClam=] 4, here to bring peace and cigarettes to the world. |
| 413 | ---- |
| 414 | * CharacterCatchphrase: "Got any smokes for Sergeant?" |
| 415 | * DepravedKidsShowHost: Downplayed example, as he's not really a jerk, but he's a childrens' character clearly being used as a vehicle to sell cigarettes. |
| 416 | * ProductPlacement: He and the game he stars in are constantly plugging Camel cigarettes. |
| 417 | * SmokingIsCool: Camel brand, specifically. Half of his entire personality is his love of Camel cigarettes. After a crisis of faith at the end of the [=GameClam=] 4 press conference, he switches to Camel Lite. |
