The intrepid, eponymous human boy. Hyperactive with a love of adventure and good deeds. That thing on his head is actually [[Nice Hat|a hat]]. Originally 12 years old, turned 13 in the episode "Mystery Train".

* [[Ten-Minute Retirement]]: In "Freak City", Finn goes through one of these after getting turned into a foot, during which he memorably goes into [[Auto-Tune~~|Auto-Tuned~~]] song. Though it's more thirty seconds than ten minutes.

* [[Ten-Minute Retirement]]: In "Freak City", Finn goes through one of these after getting turned into a foot, during which he memorably goes into [[Auto-Tune]]d song. Though it's more thirty seconds than ten minutes.

* [[Auto-Tune]]: Seems to be his natural singing voice after [[Noodle Incident|he swallows a tiny computer]] immediately prior to "The Jiggler".

* [[Awesome Backpack]]: His big, green, circular backpack.

Line 55:

* [[Determinator]]: His very first appearance has an amusing double-subversion. Finn is told to believe in himself in order to escape his prison of ice; [[Family-Unfriendly Aesop|Finn refuses]] but then [[Heroic Willpower|breaks out through sheer willpower]]. In the series proper, he soldiers past numerous injuries, breaks out of the Lich's mind control, ''literally ignores two broken legs'' to save the day(s).

* [[Distaff Counterpart]]: Fionna.

* [[Expy]]: Of Tarzan, seemingly. Both are [[Token Human~~|Token Humans~~]] living in a strange world, [[Raised by Wolves]] to develop [[Charles Atlas Superpower~~|Charles Atlas Superpowers~~]]. Both show more emotional complexity than those around them, but nevertheless feel at home in a world not their own. There are also prominent tree houses in both stories.

Both show more emotional complexity than those around them, but nevertheless feel at home in a world not their own. There are also prominent tree houses in both stories.

* [[Easy Amnesia]]/[[Laser-Guided Amnesia]]: Finn can put frightening memories in his "vault". What's disturbing is that [[Dissonant Serenity|he does it so casually]]...

{{quote|'''Finn''': That one's going in the vault. Aaaaaaand... it's gone.}}

Line 139:

{{quote|'''PB''': You blew it, Finn! With this! ''[Shows bubble-blowing device]''

'''Finn''': Then I'll kill it with [[Heroes Prefer Swords|this]]! }}

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?]]: He's terrified of the ocean and ''only'' the ~~ocean--not~~ rivers, lakes, or puddles. He is also afraid of the body of water in question whether he consciously knows it's the ocean or not.

* [[Wild Child]]: "Boom Boom Mountain" reveals Finn was [[Parental Abandonment|orphaned]] as a baby and taken in by Jake's parents.

** [[Raised by Wolves]]: To the extent that he calls dogs Brother, Mother and Father without a hint of irony.

Line 150:

=== Fionna ===

[[File:~~fionna_8037~~.png|frame|"A crystal sword! I'm all about swords! How did you know?"]]

[[File:fionna 8037.png|frame|"A crystal sword! I'm all about swords! How did you know?"]]

Finn's [[Gender Flip]] counterpart who is considerably more level-headed than he is. She still manages to have a thirst for adventure, however. Appears in "Adventure Time with Fionna and Cake."

Line 176:

== Jake the Dog ==

[[File:~~Jake_1947~~.png|frame|"[[What Could Possibly Go Wrong?|Fine, it's fine. Everything's gonna be fine. It's fine!]]"]]

[[File:Jake 1947.png|frame|"[[What Could Possibly Go Wrong?|Fine, it's fine. Everything's gonna be fine. It's fine!]]"]]

Finn's chummy, size-shifting bulldog friend (not pet) and foster-brother. He is more laid back than Finn, but also enjoys adventure. He sometimes gives Finn brotherly advice, but it is not often helpful.

Line 238:

=== Cake ===

[[File:~~cake_7335~~.png|frame|"Catnip! Sweet babies!"]]

[[File:cake 7335.png|frame|"Catnip! Sweet babies!"]]

Jake's [[Gender Flip]] counterpart (who is a cat) and Fionna's adoptive sister. Has the same stretching powers Jake does. Appears in "Adventure Time with Fionna and Cake."

Line 253:

== Princess Bubblegum ==

[[File:~~Bubblegum_7328~~.jpg|frame|"Hurry, sweet citizens..."]]

[[File:Bubblegum 7328.jpg|frame|"Hurry, sweet citizens..."]]

The teenaged princess and current ruler of the Candy Kingdom. She cares deeply about her citizens. She's also a giant nerd, said to engage in "every branch of geekdom,", but not (as far as we can tell) in the [[Cosplay Otaku Girl]] ~~way-- she~~'s more of a math and science whiz. She's also a hybrid of human DNA and bubblegum DNA (which Finn [[Running Gag|finds a-TRACTT-ive~!]]), [[Rule of Cool|despite bubblegum not having DNA]], hence her name. She's friends with Finn, who seems to have a crush on her (however much he [[She Is Not My Girlfriend|tries to deny it]]), but we don't know if the feelings are mutual yet. Although she looks [[A Worldwide Punomenon|sweet]], and is, in general, rather nice, she is actually quite quick to anger, and her wrath is [[Beware the Nice Ones|best avoided]]. She also speaks German, apparently. The second season reveals her first name is Bonnibel.

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: In the dungeon episode with her magic flying swan that [[Crazy Awesome|shoots lasers from its mouth by controlling it like a joystick.]]

** In "What Have You Done?" Princess Bubblegum was about to beat the stuffing out of Ice King... using pink [[Power Fist~~|Power Fists~~]].

** In "What Have You Done?" Princess Bubblegum was about to beat the stuffing out of Ice King... using pink [[Power Fist]]s.

* [[Took a Level in Jerkass]]: Some of her actions towards Finn in season 3 can be seen as uncalled-for.

** In Wizard Battle she kissed him on the lips after he messed up, but by Incendium she is horrified by the thought of him snuggling with her.

Line 323:

=== Prince Gumball ===

[[File:~~prince_gumball_5013~~.png|frame|"Heck yes, as my pal!"]]

An odd-looking but beautiful, flying half-rainbow-half-unicorn creature. Also Jake's girlfriend. She only speaks Korean, which Jake, but not Finn, understands.

Line 367:

=== Lord Monochromicorn ===

[[File:~~lord_monochromicorn_1102~~.jpg|frame|• • • ••-• -- <ref>Hey!</ref>]]

[[File:lord monochromicorn 1102.jpg|frame|• • • ••-• -- <ref>Hey!</ref>]]

Lady Rainicorn's [[Gender Flip]] counterpart and Prince Gumball's loyal companion. In a relationship with Cake.

Line 381:

== BMO ==

[[File:~~Beemo1_5954~~.png|frame|"Who wants to play video games?"]]

[[File:Beemo1 5954.png|frame|"Who wants to play video games?"]]

BMO, pronounced ''[[Fun with Acronyms|Beemo]]'', is Finn and Jake's [[Cute Machines|cute]] [[Animate Inanimate Object|Animate Inanimate]] [[Video Game]] system. A bit of a rebel, Beemo sometimes enjoys turning up his volume too loud and running out of batteries during a game. Looks like cross between a [[Game Boy]], [[Macintosh]] and a [[wikipedia:Vectrex|Vectrex]].

Line 405:

== Lumpy Space Princess ==

[[File:~~lumpy_space_princess_1651~~.jpg|frame|"[[Whatever]]!"]]

[[File:lumpy space princess 1651.jpg|frame|"[[Whatever]]!"]]

A purple, floating Lumpy-thing with a star on her head and a pushy attitude. Also, [http://www.flickr.com/photos/84568447@N00/5079411580/ she's apparently Latina.]

Line 426:

== Marceline ==

[[File:~~marceline_3417~~.png|frame|"Dang, man, I didn't think you'd ''ever'' catch on!"]]

[[File:marceline 3417.png|frame|"Dang, man, I didn't think you'd ''ever'' catch on!"]]

The queen of the vampires (or so she says). Known to be extremely unempathetic but never cruel, simply doing whatever she pleases even at the expense of others. Apparently was alive at the time of the apocalyptic 'mushroom war'. Subject to a lot of fan [[Perverse Sexual Lust|"attention"]], [[Evil Is Sexy|for]] [[Fetish Fuel|whatever]] reason; [[Ensemble Darkhorse|became extremely popular]] while only appearing twice in the first season, not counting the opening credits and brief cameos. Usually decked out in punk-rock apparel. She generally tries to be a cool and rather unfeeling, she harbors a very broken spirit due to loneliness in living forever, among other things. Whenever her more sensitive or emotional side is shown, she gets angry. In the fourth season, it was revealed she has the surname Abadeer.

Line 473:

* [[Instrument of Murder]]: She turned the [[Ancestral Weapon|family axe]] into a [[Instrumental Weapon|bass guitar]].

* [[Invisibility]]

* [[It Amused Me]]: This is her reason for pretty much everything she does, [[Jerkass~~|Jerkassy~~]] or [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|not]].

* [[It Amused Me]]: This is her reason for pretty much everything she does, [[Jerkass]]y or [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|not]].

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Seemed to be a straight-up Jerkass in her introduction episode, and then in "Henchman", it was revealed that she's actually a pretty cool chick who enjoys screwing with people but never actually hurts them, and by the end of the episode she and Finn seem to have struck up a friendship, and though Jake presumably still hated/was totally terrified of her, he seems to have warmed up to her to the point of being worried about her when told she was in danger. Since then, she's pretty much dropped pretensions towards straight-up Jerkassery.

** "Heat Signature" provides a good example of this; she pranks Finn and Jake into believing that they're vampires and fools them into doing various embarrassing things, but draws the line at her old ghost gang brutally kicking them for no reason and goes berserk when Finn and Jake are tricked into nearly jumping to their deaths.

Line 535:

== Ice King ==

[[File:~~Ice_King_6609~~.png|frame|"I only try to kill you 'cause you're PRINCESS-BLOCKING ME ALL THE TIME."]]

[[File:Ice King 6609.png|frame|"I only try to kill you 'cause you're PRINCESS-BLOCKING ME ALL THE TIME."]]

An unruly monarch from the Ice Kingdom. He can be considered one of the main villains of the show, constantly stealing princesses so he can marry them.

Line 619:

* [[Wizard Beard]]

* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: If more likely to freeze them.

* [[Yandere ~~(disambiguation)~~]]: A rare male example.

* [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]]: A rare male example.

Line 642:

== The Lich ==

[[File:~~The_Lich_1204~~.png|frame|[[Badass Boast|I am beyond strength]]. [[I Am the Noun|I am, the End]]]]

{{quote|You... [[Hero-Killer|You messed {{spoiler|Billy}} up]]! You just wanna mess me all up! [[Omnicidal Maniac|Mess everyone up!]]|Finn}}

Line 671:

* [[Glowing Eyelights of Undeath]]: He and anyone he's controlling have these.

* [[Hero-Killer]]: He killed {{spoiler|Billy}}

* [[Immortality]]: Appears to have this, a combination of types four and five, due to being a Lich and {{spoiler|his habit of [[Body Surf~~|Body Surfing~~]].}} [[Word of God]] has said that he hasn't ''beaten'' death but is cheating him at every turn.

* [[Immortality]]: Appears to have this, a combination of types four and five, due to being a Lich and {{spoiler|his habit of [[Body Surf]]ing.}} [[Word of God]] has said that he hasn't ''beaten'' death but is cheating him at every turn.

* [[It Only Works Once]]: Happens twice; {{spoiler|[[Upgrade Artifact|Billy's Gauntlet]] was supposed to be needed to kill The Lich since it worked before. Destroying it is among the first things he does, before even fully recovering. Attacking him with [[The Power of Love]] didn't work out so well the second time either.}} It's not so much that whatever he gets hit with ''won't'' work on him again, he just has whiplash-quick reflexes and really long arms.

* [[Knight of Cerebus]]: ''Oh hell yes.'' The first thing you'll notice about him is that unlike the other villians in this show, he has no humorous quirks that can make him any less terrifying.

Line 694:

== Flame Princess ==

[[File:~~tvtropes_flame_princess_4266~~.png|frame|"Don't EVER mess with me again..."]]

[[File:tvtropes flame princess 4266.png|frame|"Don't EVER mess with me again..."]]

The princess of the Fire Kingdom; a princess made out of fire. Beneath her innocent exterior is a deeply destructive and unpredictable personality, with a terrible temper. She has no perspective on the norms of the world and doesn't seem to understand what is right or wrong, possibly due to being sheltered by her father. At the end of the third season, she inadvertently [[Gone Horribly Right|becomes Finn's new love interest]].

Line 710:

** [[Flaming Hair]]

* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]

* [[Elemental Embodiment]]: To make matters worse, all the fire she creates is actually a part of ~~her--any~~ attempt to curb her destruction causes her pain. However this means that she has absolute control of her fires and so far has chosen to not harm a single non-flame creature, even when she set an entire inhabited city alight.

* [[Evil Is Burning Hot]]: If she indeed ''is'' evil.

* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: "'''STOP WHISPERING!!!!'''"

Line 736:

* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: Water. Also, you can extinguish ''any'' flames she has made if you want to hurt her.

Line 787:

==== The Duke of Nuts ====

[[File:120px-Prince-of-nuts 2379.png|frame|"[[Getting Crap Past the Radar|Why would you want to sack MY Nut Castle on my second son's first birthday?]]" ]]

A secondary character, the Duke of Nuts is a generally nice member of royalty, ruling over the Nut Kingdom. An all-around family man, his only major flaw is that a physical deficiency makes him uncontrollably eat any pudding in range.

Line 825:

==== Gunter ====

[[File:~~rsz_4387147853_242fb9bf0f_o_2886~~.jpg|frame|"Wenk."]]

[[File:rsz 4387147853 242fb9bf0f o 2886.jpg|frame|"Wenk."]]

The Ice King's favorite penguin and servant. May be the ultimate evil power in Ooo, if Marceline's dad is correct. It has been suggested that the Ice King just calls whatever penguin is closest Gunter.

Line 841:

==== Susan Strong ====

[[File:176px-~~Susan_235~~.png|frame]]

[[File:176px-Susan 235.png|frame]]

A member of an underground dwelling group of humans. {{spoiler|The "humans" she lives with are eventually revealed to be ''hyoo-mans'', a strange race of [[Fish People]] living in the ruins of human civilization. Susan herself is implied to be the only true human amongst them.}}
