Parties and Parodies/Characters

The Order of the Half-Price Hero
""Hey! I get to be useful in combat for once!""

Merthuvial, Rogue 10/Exemplar 11

 * Butt Monkey
 * Chaotic Good
 * GMPC: The rare non-sue variety.
 * Go Mad From the Revelation: Merthuvial is too crazy to speak to his comrades much after he is.
 * Jack of All Trades: He was the party's skillmonkey, and nothing else, having skill ranks in just about everything.
 * Master of None: However, he does not have skill focus or other feat bonuses to any particular skill.
 * Morality Chain: For the order.

Kribnefka Teruntkerik, Kobold, Warlock 12 to Sorcerer 21.
""I'm pretty sure just being around us is an alignment hit.""

A Kobold who began the revolution against the Chromatic Oppressors.
 * Chaotic Neutral
 * Creepy Souveneir:
 * Deal With the Devil: With Garthlag the Spine Muncher, Eater of Souls and Kicker of Dogs

 * Hearing Voices: Before getting an Atonement spell, he heard the voices of Garthlag and Bahamut constantly.
 * Heroic Comedic Sociopath: Just listen to some of the solutions he's offered.

Dartak, Kobold Cleric 19
""HMMMM.""

 * The Voiceless: HMMM.
 * Eloquent in His Native Tongue: It's just that nobody speaks Undercommon.

Dressmar Swooping Falcon, Dragonfire Adept

 * Chaotic Neutral
 * Chaotic Stupid: Even among the Half-Price Heroes. Case in point, Dressmar, the original owner of the greater rod of wonder, an item that could destroy enemies, is just as happy when it gives him a paint job, shrinks him, and creates leaves out of his body.
 * Pyromaniac: In Tolstoff Keep, Dressmar spends about half an episode burning everything in every chamber that is without a name.
 * Schroedinger Fu: GREATER ROD OF WONDER!

Lulu, Human Monk 21

 * Drunken Boxing: As he is a chaos monk, this is what the other players this gives him his martial prowess...
 * Drunken Master: ...and what a lot of prowess he has!

Matt Tennant, Half-Dragon Dread Necromancer 18
""Is that another innuendo?""


 * Bad Powers, Good People: Control of the undead, but he definitely tends towards Chaotic Good.
 * Collector of the Strange: Matt Tenant and his skeleton fetish, but he uses them to create computers and helicopters.
 * Dem Bones: Skeletons, Skeletons Everywhere!
 * Half-Human Hybrid: The dragon was the mother.
 * Magitek: Krib makes the blueprints, Matt provides the material, they create flying machines, tanks, and computers.
 * Necromancer
 * Punny Name: Matt Tenant is a "walking, talking, Dr. Who reference."
 * Willing Channeler: Matt Tenant is the only one to accept the nightmare form's promise of power, then promptly gets branded for it.
 * Willing Channeler: Matt Tenant is the only one to accept the nightmare form's promise of power, then promptly gets branded for it.

Yaseilex Aisafflam, Half Fey Grey Elf Archivist 3 Wizard 1 Paragon 3 Mystic Theurge 11 Ruathar 3
An elf who is very much in the wrong campaign.
 * Back From the Dead: Killed and reincarnated.
 * Fate Worse Than Death: Was reincarnated as a gnome. He doesn't stay that way, though.
 * Jack of All Trades: "Trades" here meaning spells. By Level 21 he can cast every single spell in all of DnD.
 * Master of None: He cannot cast the spells at a high enough level to effect the plot.
 * Lawful Good: Making him rather an oddity in the group.
 * Min Maxing: Yaseilex is min-maxed for an entirely different campaign.
 * Only Sane Man: Besides Merthuvial, that is.
 * Our Elves Are Better: Grey Elven superiority complex (reinforced by his epic levels).

Sibas Sin, Sorcerer 11/Nightmare Spinner 1

 * Bag of Holding: More like "bag of hoarding" for Sibas, who keeps EVERYTHING he sees, down to moldy rugs and silverware.
 * Comedic Sociopath: When presented with any obstacle at all, Sibas almost has to make a Will save not to Kill it with Fire. For example, during the filler pilot, he nuked a gang of more than a half-dozen commoners.

Kakua, Barbarian 11

 * The Berserker: She is essentially the Incredible Hulk due to her Super Strength and Unstoppable Rage.

Afonchwyn, Nymph 7 Ranger 12
Yaseilex's cohort. Before Power Creep, Power Seep was by far the toughest member of the party.
 * Happily Married: To Yaseilex.
 * Lawful Good: Odd for a fey.
 * Made of Iron: Defeats several early traps by walking through them.
 * The Voiceless: Only talks off-screen.

Asifa Skullhunter, Kobold Druid 8
A Kobold paleontologist with an unnecessarily high charisma score. She's quite beautiful by kobold standards, but spends most of her time wildshaped because Kobolds can't hold up their own weight. ""Look, we don't have a way to cure their insanity, so why don't we just kill them and then I can cast Reincarnate?""
 * Everything's Better With Dinosaurs: Her preferred Wildshaping option.
 * Murder Is the Best Solution


 * Neutral Evil
 * The Vamp: Oh, how she tries. Sadly, the Kobold standards of beauty are quite different from those of other races. Targets so far include a half-orc, dracula, Hong Meiling, a mute assassin, and Patchouli Knowledge.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: Comes with the druid package.
 * Why Dont You Just Eat Him
 * Why Dont You Just Eat Him

Sid

 * Chaotic Evil
 * Death Is Cheap: We're up to five deaths so far, and a reincarnation each time.

Iothcaex, Half-Dragon Kobold Paladin

 * Chronic Backstabbing Disorder
 * Lawful Good

Genghis Kant

 * Chaotic Good
 * Signature Move: Magic Missile!

Major NPCS
Many of the important characters from the Greyhawk setting make appearances from time to time. These are the ones unique to this show.

Miserthal

 * Cloudcuckoolander
 * Inexplicably Identical Individuals: There is one of him in every town.
 * The Hyena: has an annoying laugh.

Rebecca/Casae Thokash
A Grey Elven girl. Was originally Yaseilex's apprentice.
 * Cheerful Child: ...Until she gets a vision.
 * Creepy Child: "That was creepily adorable." – Matt Tenant on Rebecca threatening the party Noob
 * Go Mad From the Revelation: Whenever she sees the future with her augury ability, since she has a tendency to always see the worst possibility that could happen during the time.
 * Insistent Terminology: Yaseilex's player created her and calls her Casae. No one else does (thanks to Little Kuriboh).
 * Mad Oracle: Rebecca, whenever she peers into the future, gasps and changes her voice from adorable to creepy.
 * Oracular Urchin: Almost exactly this trope
 * Talkative Loon: Rebecca, when hit by an insanity spell, started spouting random words and phrases.
 * Waif Prophet: Qualifies, as she is a child who sees into the future.
 * Word Salad: After going insane from an encounter in the cultists' temple, this happens.

Uthreth Aisafflam
Yaseilex's grandfather, a powerful wizard.
 * The Archmage
 * Back From the Dead
 * Cool Old Guy
 * Deus Ex Machina: His job description. Case in point, during the showdown with The Worm That Walks in Tolstoff keep, the party is saved by very high-level Uthreth Aisafflam teleporting in and saving the day while yelling Deus Ex Machina! at the top of his lungs.
 * Large Ham

Elder Elemental Eye, aka

 * Big Bad
 * Eldritch Abomination
 * Go Mad From the Revelation: All the major gods of Greyhawk are driven insane by simply being in the presence of the Elder Elemental Eye.
 * High Octane Nightmare Fuel: He puts a sphere of annihilation inside of a well of many worlds, so that every plane has more and more of it eradicated from existence – one sphere at a time. Sometimes, a person is touched partially by a sphere, which gives the victim just enough time to scream in fear before they cease to be. Since this is within his portfolio, Tharizdûn hears it, then he uses his telepathy to project the screams of terror into the minds of the protagonists'. At one point, Yaseilex cast "Silence" to drown the voices, then finds that it does nothing to prevent him from hearing their helpless cries of agony.
 * Macross Missile Massacre: The primary attack of Tharizdûn, who spams spheres of annihilation.
 * Mad God: An Omnicidal Maniac Cosmic Horror and god of psychopathic nihilists, wants to eliminate all existence, finishing with himself.
 * Power Born of Madness: God of madness and entropy
 * Superpower Lottery: Tharizdûn, a Divine Rank 20 deity with optimized class levels, can make all the extraplanar gods insane and can spam a spheres of annihilation!

It Which Is Many

 * Ambiguous Gender: A shapeshifter whose true form has yet to be seen.
 * The Tetris Effect: He actually has the music playing when s/he shows up.

Edwin Tolstoff

 * Curb Stomp Battle: Delivered one to the party, before being on the receiving end of one with Uthreth.
 * The Worm That Walks

Girija Gorgy

 * Magic Knight: Full caster level as a primary caster AND almost full BAB, along with dual-wielded bastard swords (katanas), immunity to fear, heavy armor, and an extra-powerful magical shield that surrounds him in combat.
