Questionable Content/Characters: Difference between revisions

'''===Marten Reed'''===

TheBegan as the main character, orbut athas leasthad central,focus charactershifted ofaway from him as the strip, moved toward an [[Ensemble Cast]]. Marten is an aficionado of indie music who starts off the story by running into a girl named Faye. A few strips later, her apartment building has somehow burned down and she moves in with him.

* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: His name is '''Marten.''' Not Martin.

'''===Faye Whitaker'''===

'''===Dora Bianchi''' (The Other Dora)===

* [[Local Hangout]]: Not her, just her business.

'''===Hannelore Ellicott-Chatham'''===

* [[Drop in-In Character]]

* [[Good Withwith Numbers]]

* [[Sleepyhead]]: Can even fall asleep standing up. Often found asleep on Marten's couch during her early [[Drop in-In Character]] days.

'''===Raven Pritchard'''===

* [[Put Onon a Bus]] - Hasn't been seen for over a year of real-time thanks to going back to school.

'''===Pintsize'''===

An "Anthro-PC"—basically a computer in a robot body and with enough AI to be sentient — Pintsize started off as the zany comic relief before evidently [[Go Mad Fromfrom the Revelation|getting an overdose of]] [[Image Board|4chan]]. Now he's ''still'' [[Comic Relief]], but in a more sinister way.

* [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot]]

* [[Intrigued Byby Humanity]]: How he [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1435 explains his 4chan obsession].

* [[Jerkass]] / [[Large Ham]]: Most of the time, [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|with exceptions]].

* [[Second Law, My Ass]]

'''===Sven Bianchi'''===

Dora's older brother is a commercially-successful songwriter in the country-music genre, making a decent living writing the musical equivalents of [[Extruded Book Product|Extruded Book Products]]s, which [[Author Tract|naturally means he sold out]]. Also a [[Casanova]] of the first degree.

* [[Informed Ability]]: [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=330 Sven doesn't claim his music's good], but it sells well anyway, and [http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1424 the less effort he puts in the more popular it is]. Some readers consider this [[Writer Onon Board]], though it can also be interpreted as Sven not appreciating or not fully harnessing his talents. Whether his songs are genuinely bad or just soulless (and goofy, but the QC universe seems quite goofiness-friendly) is left to the reader to decide, since we obviously don't get to hear them.

{{quote| "I write the songs that make the whole world cringe."}}

'''===Marigold Louise Farmer'''===

* [[Expy]] (Of ''[[Lucky Star (Anime)|Lucky Star]]'''s Konata, can you believe)

{{quote| '''Marigold''': NO TIPS FOR ALLIANCE SCUM!}}

'''===Angus McPhee''', formerly known as Argument Guy===

* '''Steve''', Marten's best friend other than Faye. [http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1408 Is] a secret agent. Was once dating a [[Perky Goth|mortician]] named Meena (prior to being [[Put Onon a Bus]] for a [[Comic Book Time|short time]]).

* '''Tai Hubbert''', Marten's current boss at the Smif College library, perpetually stuck in an all-girl [[Useful Notes/For the Love of Many|polyamorous]] [[Love Dodecahedron]]. She ''really'' [[Can't Hold His Liquor|Can't Hold Her Liquor]]. Her Twitter account is "tai_fighter", named after her DJing [[Star Wars|stage]] [[Punny Name|name]]. Has a crush on Dora, and half-heartedly tried to get with her after she and {{spoiler|Marten}} broke up.

* '''Scott''', Marten's [[Benevolent Boss|likeable first boss]], a semi-[[StraightInvisible Gayto Gaydar]].

* '''Hannelore's Roomba''', [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|Hannelore's Roomba]]. Pintsize has somewhat of a rivalry with it. He and Winslow eventually strapped a rocket to it and sent it out the window, and it came back with a wife and three children. Who also have rockets.

* '''Clinton''', Robot researcher with an artificial hand. Semi-stalked Hannelore after finding out who her father was. Poor sense of personal boundaries.

* '''Yelling Bird''', a [[No Indoor Voice|yelling]] [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|bird]] ([[Stealth Pun|theorised]] to be a [[Visual Pun|tit]] or a [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Dickcissel |dickcissel]]) who appears in occasional filler comics, usually to scream about why it was posted (usually along the lines of "[[Self-Deprecation|Jeph is too drunk/lazy/disorganized to post a comic today]],") or just give its opinion on something. Doesn't seem too fond of punctuation and [[Cluster F-Bomb|uses profanity instead]]. Has its own [http://twitter.com/yelling_bird Twitter] [[Crowning Moment of Funny|account.]]
