 * Brain Bleach: In episode 8 after witnessing the "secret pirate".

"Shaggy: I can sure go for a big stack covered with clams and syrup at the Clam Cabin. Right, Scoob? Scooby-Doo: Choke on it."
 * Butt Monkey: More than Shaggy in this series.
 * Catch Phrase: "Scooby Dooby Doo!", as usual
 * And taken into a Badass extreme when

 * Let's Get Dangerous: Scooby is the same Lovable Coward he always was, but if you're trying to kill his friends, he will  .
 * Non-Human Sidekick: To Shaggy.
 * Out of Focus: More focus so far has been going into pulling out the human cast from their "traditional" characterizations, so Scooby hasn't been in the spotlight as much. However, Season Two may be entire focused on him, trying to bring the gang back together and to hunt down Pericles.
 * Plucky Comic Relief: He seems to be taking this role recently.
 * Pre-Mortem One-Liner: In episode 10.  Granted, he said it to a robot, but still, Scoob was all business as he delivered the final blow.
 * Speech-Impaired Animal: Your Trope Codifier at work. Arguably upgraded to Talking Animal, as he tends to speak in much longer sentences and no longer begins each word with an "R" sound.

"Barty Blake: "Fred Jones, you buffoon!!" Scooby: "Yeah. Buffoon.""

 * What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Shaggy sees Scooby as not just a dog, but his best friend. Which leads to problems...

Norville "Shaggy" Rogers
Voice Actor: Matthew Lillard

A description of the character goes here.

"Velma: What kind of Man Crab needs to use stairs to get under the volleyball tournament? Shaggy: One that's industrious and has a degree in engineering?"
 * Ask a Stupid Question: Shaggy does this all the time, though he did provide the sarcastic answer once:

"Shaggy: Shaggy likes it baggy!"
 * Big Eater: As usual.
 * Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: But less than Scooby actually.
 * Disguised in Drag: Velma points out that Fruitmeyer's is currently hiring female servers, which gives the gang an opportunity to put people on the inside and investigate the place. Cut immediately to Shaggy and Scooby poorly disguised as women in Fruitmeyer's uniforms. When Shaggy questions why he and Scooby are dressed as girls when the gang already has two girls in it, Daphne gives a very good reason -.
 * Dumbass Has a Point:
 * Embarrassing First Name: Norville.
 * Erudite Stoner: G-rated version.
 * Four-Temperament Ensemble: The Phlegmatic.
 * Friend Versus Lover: Caught between Scooby and Velma, mainly because he used the idea that Scooby wouldn't approve to avoid letting the others know they were dating. Shaggy tried to take Velma to the prom without telling Scooby first, leaving Scooby behind. Eventually, he caught them alone, accusing Shaggy of "cheating on him". It went downhill from there. In episode 10, he chooses, of course, is pissed.
 * Shaggy tries to get back with Velma, and she seems to reciprocate before eventually telling him she no longer feels that way about him.
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: With Scooby. And boy, did the decision break Velma's heart.
 * Impossibly Cool Clothes: Severely averted in episode 5 by the tight pants Velma bought for Shaggy and insists he wears. He could barely walk in them, let alone look good in them. He goes back to his oversized pants at the end.
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: With Scooby. And boy, did the decision break Velma's heart.
 * Impossibly Cool Clothes: Severely averted in episode 5 by the tight pants Velma bought for Shaggy and insists he wears. He could barely walk in them, let alone look good in them. He goes back to his oversized pants at the end.
 * Impossibly Cool Clothes: Severely averted in episode 5 by the tight pants Velma bought for Shaggy and insists he wears. He could barely walk in them, let alone look good in them. He goes back to his oversized pants at the end.

"Ellison: What if "like", like, were used, like, in its proper grammatical form and not, like, a conversational pause, like every third, like word?"
 * The Lancer
 * Like Is, Like, a Comma:
 * Episode 5 lampshades this with Velma making him or someone else pinch him with a wristband every time he does it.
 * Harlan Ellison chews him out for it in episode 12.


 * Look a Distraction: Pulls this on Scooby and Velma in episode 9 when they have him cornered with a Friend Versus Lover shake-down.
 * Lovable Coward
 * Plucky Comic Relief: Now that the Velma/Shaggy/Scooby Love Triangle is over, he has taken this role along with Scooby.
 * Raised By A Large Great Dane Mix: If his parents' attitude toward him is any indication, he was probably raised more by Scooby than his parents.
 * Took a Level in Badass: While still cowardly, Shaggy has stepped up more than he has in previous series.

Velma Dinkley
Voice Actor: Mindy Cohn

A description of the character goes here.

"Velma: (coldly and abruptly) Goodnight, Norville."
 * Berserk Button: Don't tell her you don't want to go to prom with her..
 * Characterization Marches On: Velma has a more... forceful personality. Her relationship with Scooby has also done a 180. In the past, they had tremendous teamwork chemistry. Now, however, the two got caught up in a bitter Friend Versus Lover feud over Shaggy.
 * In the second half of the first season, her forcefulness and bitterness toward Scooby were greatly reduced.
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: To Shaggy.
 * Deadpan Snarker
 * Hair Decorations: Velma now has small side hairbows.
 * Friend Versus Lover: With Shaggy vs. Scooby, and Velma suffered the ignominy of losing her romantic interest to his dog.
 * Late in season 1, Shaggy comes back around to showing romantic interest in Velma. She seems to reciprocate at first, then tells him she no longer feels that way and hopes they can still be friends. The following episode, she says she "sent him back to his dog," implying that she may very well still feel romantic feelings for Shaggy, but is afraid she'll give into them, only to be dumped for Scooby a second time.
 * Four-Temperament Ensemble: The Choleric.
 * Hollywood Nerd
 * I Wish It Was Real: In episode 20, she became friends with a mermaid. . She then quips that she wished that the supernatural stuff was real.
 * Magic Skirt: Usually, but averted in episode 4 - Velma has to hold her skirt down, denying a Panty Shot, after she gets catapulted into the air by the Man Crab.
 * Meganekko: It helps that this version is quite different than past ones. In past incarnations, Velma was a kinda pudgy, Hollywood Ugly stereotypical nerd. This Velma, however, is quite svelte, while keeping the bust & butt, much cuter, and apparently has a libido to match Shaggy's appetite.
 * Nerds Are Sexy
 * Nice Job Breaking It, Hero:
 * Poor Communication Kills:
 * Secret Keeper:
 * Small Name, Big Ego: Seen in episode 17; when she, Scooby and Shaggy are in a trap, it states that only the smartest of the group could get out. Velma assumes it's her... . Velma tries to hide the fact that she made an error once they're free.
 * The Smart Girl
 * Teen Genius: Of course.
 * Took a Level in Jerkass: In the first half of the first season, she gets better in the second half.
 * Tsundere: Very much. One scene has a quick glimpse of her as a borderline Yandere.
 * Woman Scorned: When Shaggy tries backing out of going to the prom, Velma gets so mad that she kicks down, not one, but two tombstones.
 * You Called Me "X" - It Must Be Serious: You know Velma's really pissed at Shaggy when, in episode 11, she calls him by his proper name.
 * Woman Scorned: When Shaggy tries backing out of going to the prom, Velma gets so mad that she kicks down, not one, but two tombstones.

Fred "Freddie" Jones
Voice Actor: Frank Welker

A description of the character goes here.

"Fred: She digs me! She digs me!!! SHE!! DIGS!! MEEEEE!!!!"
 * It Gets Worse: The entirety of the season 2 premiere. That is all.
 * Characterization Marches On: Freddy has regained a lot of his ditzyness from A Pup Named Scooby Doo and is now a complete Chaste Hero. Poor Daphne.
 * Chaste Hero: Later becomes a Celibate Hero.
 * Made ever-so-evident in episode 17 after Fred pulls Daphne from Danny Darrow's swimming pool trap. She needs artificial respiration and is expecting mouth-to-mouth. He presses on her stomach instead.
 * Character Exaggeration: Fred used to always build the traps. This Fred is trap obsessed! He has gone on record saying "For trap's sake", meaning his obsession is either religious, sexual, or, god willing, both.
 * Cloudcuckoolander
 * Collector of the Strange: Fred's almost fetishistic obsession with traps extends to his decor. He has an open Bear Trap sitting on the floor of his bedroom.
 * Crazy Prepared: He has made insane customizations to the Mystery Machine, and has even booby-trapped all of his friends' houses in case a monster strikes.
 * Did I Just Say That Out Loud?:
 * Fred yells this during his Heroic BSOD in episode 4 after he blurts out that Daphne's voice sounds as "sweet and perfect as a trap snapping shut on a criminal".
 * Again in episode 13. Daphne overhears him call the biology teacher, whom they think is behind the cicada attacks, a "girlfriend stealer".
 * Zig-zagged in episode 15 after Daphne kisses him:

 * Again in episode 13. Daphne overhears him call the biology teacher, whom they think is behind the cicada attacks, a "girlfriend stealer".
 * Zig-zagged in episode 15 after Daphne kisses him:


 * Ditzy Genius / Genius Ditz: As usual, Fred, though he keeps a closer balance between brilliant but oblivious, a la What's New Scooby Doo, and a moron with a few smart areas, a la A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, than ever before.
 * Four-Temperament Ensemble: The Melancholic.
 * Genre Savvy: Has his moments, such as when its revealed he has all his friends houses booby-trapped to protect from monsters or how
 * The Hero
 * Heroic BSOD:
 * Has one after he thinks his meddling got Professor Rockelow attacked by the monster. Played for Laughs.
 * An even more devastating one occurs during episode 4, when he believes his latest trap has led to Daphne being hurt. Also Played for Laughs.
 * Yet another in episode 7 after his trap fails and Daphne is kidnapped. Again.
 * Lantern Jaw of Justice: Fred isn't so much about the justice as the traps, but that chin certainly fits the trope.
 * calls him "Mr. Perfect Big-Chin Man" to which Daphne asks if they've met.
 * Let's Get Dangerous: Fred in episode 26 is far more focused and serious than he is for most of the series.
 * Missing Mom: Who's either dead or divorced from Mayor Jones.
 * Episode 23 has Fred waxing emotional after seeing a picture of his mom, whom Shaggy said disappeared when Fred was very young.
 * Nameless Narrative:
 * Oblivious to Love: Initially Fred didn't seem to pick up that Daphne is flirting with him, now he's actively in denial about it.
 * Obfuscating Stupidity: Later episodes show he's not quite as oblivious as he leads the viewer on to be. He even becomes a Clingy Jealous Boy at times.
 * Lampshaded in episode 23: Fred has a multi-page list of everything Daphne does, and in his sleep he mumbles Daphne's name and "traps" in the same sentence.
 * Pungeon Master: In "Howl of the Fright Hound" with a series of dog puns. He even explains his "flea" pun after capturing the robot dog. Daphne implores him to stop.
 * The Reveal:
 * Shout-Out:
 * Standardized Leader: Averted!
 * Tastes Like Feet: Fred sniffs a bookbag in episode 12, and declares that it smells like "a baboon smoking a cigar while bathing in a bath of moldy tuna and curdled ranch dressing".
 * Tin Man: Fred thinks that real men don't have feelings, and is very confused by the fact he does, in fact, have feelings... for traps... and Daphne.
 * Episode 23 shows that Fred is probably controlling of Daphne because his mom disappeared and he's afraid Daphne could as well. Daphne assures him it's not happening.
 * Episode 24: After Fred's dad declines to thank him for solving the mystery, a disconsolate Fred finds consolation in the only person he believes understands him—Daphne. So much so that
 * Trap Master
 * Episode 17 had him pitted against another villainous Trap Master, in which he treated him as if he were the ultimate rival. Which leads to a a great moment when they start discussing different types of traps.
 * Was It All a Lie?:
 * "Well Done, Son" Guy:

Daphne Blake
Voice Actor: Grey DeLisle

A description of the character goes here.

"Daphne: Is she trying to tell me that Alice May is the enemy and that Fred is pinned down on the beach and that I can't get up until he's safe! Or is Fred the beach and I'm the one pinned down? Or are we both the beach? It doesn't matter because I understand! ... I think."
 * Bare Your Midriff: Her Hex Girl outfit.
 * Beauty Is Never Tarnished:
 * Averted in episode 2, when she demonstrates that the alligator products are fake by invoking her allergies to synthetic animal skins. We're given a good long look at huge red pustules all along her arm.
 * And averted even harder in episode 4, when we're shown a flashback to her sister's wedding and her allergic reaction to shellfish It wasn't pretty.
 * Also averted when Fred's ejection seat throws her out of the Mystery Machine. Her bruised face shows how she landed.
 * Big Eater: In episode 19, she's seen eating as much as Scooby and Shaggy due to her dinner date with Fred canceled after waiting 2 hours for a booth.
 * Break the Cutie: Episode 26.
 * The Chick
 * Clingy Jealous Girl: To Fred.
 * Cloudcuckoolander: Sometimes.

"Daphne's Mom: Why settle for ground beef when you can have a nice prime rib? Daphne: But I don't even like meat! I like vegetables... like Fred."
 * Composite Character: Being most like the first show's version, but more clever and resourceful, like her later incarnations.
 * Damsel in Distress: Less so this time around.
 * Hair Decorations: Still has her Alice band.
 * Exact Eavesdropping: Because she's tied up above him, Daphne overhears Fred expressing frustration toward her and how  he didn't care  about her. After she falls from her captivity, she misses.
 * Four-Temperament Ensemble: The Sanguine.
 * Genre Blind: One moment in episode 7 where, when a book drops off the shelf mysteriously, she puts it back instead of reading it. Then it keeps flying out, once with enough force to bounce off the previous shelf, and the mysterious Trickster Mentor (probably Mister. E) lampshades it by saying "Oh, for crying out loud..."
 * Magic Skirt: In her Hex Girls outfit.
 * Metaphorgotten: Seems to be a common problem with Daphne.

"Fred: Darn it lady, I'm serious. Where is she?"
 * Ms. Fanservice: Spends most of episode 4 in a bikini, and there's a scene where Velma rubs suntan lotion on her back. Her Hex Girl outfit in Episode 7 is also very revealing as is her nightie in Episode 15, when the gang and Sheriff Stone are in her bedroom.
 * Non-Singing Voice: Averted hard, as seen in episode 7. Anyone who's seen "Mayhem of the Music Meister" knows how well Daphne's voice actress sings.
 * Noodle Incident: She has many to tell concerning her family. The latest is that her sister Dawn tried to train chickens to spell her name as part of an engagement announcement.
 * Purple Eyes: Matching her dress.
 * Redheaded Heroine
 * Self-Induced Allergic Reaction: Daphne does this to check the quality of gator goods as fake animal skins make her break out.
 * Shaggy Search Technique: Pulls this off in episode 8.
 * Tastes Like Feet: Daphne describes a book as smelling like "old clam chowder being gargled by a seal".
 * That Girl Is Dead: Daphne pulls a temporary version, directed at Fred, when she takes the name Crush for her short stint with the Hex Girls. Naturally lost on Fred.


 * She also did this in Episode Six, where she becomes 'Crush' in the Hex Girls. She even goes as far to write a song about how she just can't wait for Fred. She's back to normal in the next episode, though.
 * The Unfavorite: She seems to be this to her parents, who expect her to live up to her successful quadruplet (or is it quintuplet?) older sisters. When she balks at going to the same college where they all graduated before age 13, her mother tells her to her face she wishes Daphne had been a boy.
 * : Subverted.
 * Yank the Dog's Chain: Wow! Daphne's gonna get married to Fred after graduating!
 * Zettai Ryouiki: In her Hex Girl outfit. Seemed to be a solid Grade A, too.

Professor Pericles
Voice Actor: Udo Kier

A description of the character goes here.

""It was just a possum. Mmmmm, delicious!""
 * Affably Evil
 * Faux Affably Evil: When things are not going his way, he will lose all pretense of courtesy.
 * Asshole Victim: It's hard to feel too bad about him being imprisoned for 20 years after learning what he did to his friends...
 * Badass Boast: "I am the smartest criminal parrot in the world! You think I wouldn't have a backup plan!? Hahahahaha!"
 * Big Bad: As part of a Big Bad Ensemble with for season 1, being a much more direct version of this trope than his fellow Big Bad, causing direct problems for the gang most of the time and . And once  Pericles is set up as the Big Bad of season 2 and the whole series.
 * Big Eater: Implied with the flashback in episode 25.

""What can I say? A bird's got to eat!""
 * Not to mention the sunflower seed business in episode 23.


 * The Chessmaster: Distracted the gang in "Where Walks Aphrodite" to get tools he needed to find.
 * Compelling Voice: Possibly to the point of Reality Warper. How else would Officer Johnson's hand and taser become "mysteriously" duct-taped together... without anybody else noticing?!
 * Complete Monster: Reveals himself as such in season 2.
 * Evil Counterpart: To Scooby Doo...
 * Also to Velma. He was his team's Smart Guy, he has a bloated opinion of his own intelligence,
 * Feathered Fiend: Type D. Remember the cute little parrot in the picture? Yeah, he's about tripled in size over the years.
 * Friendly Enemy: Doesn't actually hate the new Mystery Inc and actually helps them several times, of course this is because it also helps him. In fact, the few times he actually comes into conflict with them, . Still the gang treats him like an enemy. This is MAJORLY subverted after "Wrath of Krampus", when he does start to hate the Mystery Inc. kids.
 * Hannibal Lecture: The gang gets one from him in "Howl of the Fright Hound".
 * Hey, It's That Voice!: Command & Conquer fans might recognize him as Yuri.
 * Intellectual Animal: The most intellectual.
 * Kick the Dog: He is a dog kicking machine. Might as well be literal in Scooby's case!
 * Knight of Cerebus: Episodes where he's involved are inevitably more serious.
 * Magnificent Bastard: Oh good lord.
 * Manipulative Bastard: He spent Episode 16 duping Scooby into helping him find the map for a cursed treasure.
 * Obfuscating Stupidity:
 * Polly Wants a Microphone
 * Scars Are Forever:
 * Scooby-Doo Hoax: In Episode 23
 * Talking Animal
 * Team Pet: For the old Mystery Incorporated.

 * Little Miss Con Artist
 * White-Haired Pretty Girl
 * Little Miss Con Artist
 * White-Haired Pretty Girl

Various Monsters
A description of the character goes here.


 * Covered in Slime: The Slime Mutant. The radioactivity of said slime borders on I Love Nuclear Power.
 * Dangerously Genre Savvy: A few of them. The Phantom of Episode 7, for example, decides to skip the Scooby-Dooby Doors chase and instead sets fire to the trailer Scooby and Shaggy are in.
 * Disproportionate Retribution: Many are guilty of this, particularly the villain from episode 10.

""I made a Wild Brood costume of my own! Form that point on, all I had to do was steal a rocket launcher, grab someone to hack a computer to divert the train, reroute said train, board the train from a moving motorcycle, defeat the train's security system, blow up the bridge the train was on which would cause the Swordfish consoles on board to be destroyed in a massive trainwreck, ruining your careers, and hopefully giving rise to my own in the process! Simple!"
 * Eldritch Abomination: Char Gar Gothacon
 * Evil Plan: And some of the most ridiculous, overly complicated ones you've ever heard at that. It's lampshaded of course.

Shaggy: "........Dude. Seriously?""

"Shaggy: Like, where does she keep getting these weapons?! That outfit has no pockets!"
 * Or the one that says that suing would take too long and then proceeds to list off a plan that rivals Freddy's traps in complexity.
 * Giant Enemy Crab: the Man-Crab
 * Hammerspace: Obliteratrix. This was lampshaded by Shaggy.


 * Haunted Technology: the Ghost Rig, as in tractor-trailer
 * Killer Robot: the Frighthound, an Evil Twin of Scooby-Doo!
 * Love Goddess: Aphrodite, though her face averts the standard idea of such a being being gorgeous beyond words...
 * Magic Music: Que Horrifico uses a pan-flute to "spookify" children, turning them into goblin-like creatures.
 * Monster of the Week
 * Mysterious Mercenary Pursuer: Obliteratrix.
 * Our Gnomes Are Weirder: The Scary Gnome
 * Our Mermaids Are Different: We got two here. We got your scary merfolk in the Fish Freaks. We get totally blue skin mermaid with blue-purple hair and white eyes in Amy the Siren.
 * Our Orcs Are Different: Notable in that none of the Wild Brood biker-orcs are the villain, but instead it's an imposter trying to frame them.
 * Our Vampires Are Different: This one's after a youth serum
 * Playing with Fire: Lord Infericus
 * Rhymes on a Dime: The Phantom, who also had a slight tendency to play with fire. The rhyming is partially justified, because he is a professional song-writer. Only one of his rhymes was spur-of-the-moment. The others could have been prepared in advance.
 * Sibling Rivalry: the red and green Humongonauts
 * Trap Master: Danny Darrow in "Escape from Mystery Manor"
 * The Worm That Walks: The Cicada Creature.

Sheriff Bronson Stone
Voice Actor: Patrick Warburton

A description of the character goes here.

""Arrest them... even though I have absolutely no jurisdiction here!""
 * Adult Child: He sleeps in a car-shaped bed for crying out loud!
 * Bad Cop, Incompetent Cop:
 * At least he arrests the culprits when they're caught by the Scooby Gang... even when he shouldn't.


 * Break the Cutie: You gotta feel sorry for him when Mayor Jones fired him in Episode 24.
 * Butt Monkey: Whenever the gang solves a mystery, it tends to negatively affect him in some form or another.
 * This is averted in episode 24; thanks to the gang, he got his job back.
 * Commander Contrarian: Episode 27 has him refusing to acknowledge Janet Nettles as the new mayor in spite of the fact she was elected. He seems to think there's a clause in the sheriff's handbook which appoints him as a de facto Mayor in the case that the regular Mayor is unable to fulfill his duties.
 * Even Sheriff Has Standards: He dislikes the gang meddling in affairs
 * Inspector Javert
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's regularly on the gang's case, but he usually means well.
 * Manly Tears: He sheds one when Mayor Jones fired him.
 * The Sheriff
 * It's his actual first name: Sheriff. Bronson is his middle name, apparently.
 * In Episode 24, we find out that "Sheriff" is his real first name; that's because his mother believed in planning ahead.
 * Somebody Else's Problem: He makes it clear that his job is to turn in criminals, not to catch monsters.
 * There was an exception in episode 24, for good reason.
 * Too Dumb to Live: "I sure hope you've got insurance, Mayor, cause - I WANNA SEE THAT AGAIN!!"
 * Why Did It Have To Be Bugs?: Reveals a severe phobia of creepy crawly bugs in "When The Cicada Calls".
 * Seems to have a fear of geeks too, actually demanding that the Wild Brood keep their masks ON so they'd be easier to look at.

Mr. E
Voice Actor: Lewis Black, Scott Menville as a teenager

A description of the character goes here.

"Mr. E: Where's the fun in that?"
 * Ambiguously Evil: We don't know enough about his motivations to really determine whether he's an actual villain or not. His total unconcern for the gang's safety (see Omniscient Morality License bellow for an example) suggests he's a Type V Anti-Hero at best, though for all we know he could be something much worse.
 * Batman Gambit: The mystery was staged by Mr. E so that the gang   and start looking into the real mystery under Crystal Cove.
