Major characters in ''[[Rusty and Co
== The Band ==
Line 9:
* [[Monster Adventurers]]: The whole starting concept of the webcomic.
=== Boxford ("Mimic") ===
The charismatic Mimic is, despite the title, the main character.
* [[Chest Monster]]
* [[A Dog Named "Dog"]]: Until level 8, when he [http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-8-17/ admits his real name is Boxford], he's known only as "Mimic".
* [[Embarrassing First Name]]: He [http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-8-17/ seems embarrassed] by his name, "Boxford".
* [[Face Palm]]: No, Mimic has neither face nor palm. [http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-6-14/ Yes, he can still facepalm nonetheless.]
* [[Glamour Failure]]: Mimic's lips are visible regardless of his form.
Line 20 ⟶ 21:
* [[Medium Awareness]]
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Well, Only Sane Mimic.
* [[
=== Rusty ===
Line 40 ⟶ 41:
* [[Le Parkour]]: Mimic claims Cube knows this. It's not like there's any other explanation how he ended up suspended between two buildings, several stories in the air.
* [[The Speechless]]: Justified because, well, it's [[Shaped Like Itself|a gelatinous cube]].
* [[Stripped to
== The Girls ==
Line 50 ⟶ 51:
A human monk (with a few levels in [[Dungeonmaster's Girlfriend]]), the princess is anything but a damsel in distress.
* [[Anti-Hero
* [[Badass Princess]]: Natch.
* [[Bare-Fisted Monk]]
* [[Bare Your Midriff]]
* [[
* [[Dungeonmaster's Girlfriend]]: She claims to have taken a level (or more) in this "VERY obscure and VERY powerful prestige class" when she was imprisoned.
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|Everyone Calls Her Princess]]: Her real name has not yet been given.
Line 64 ⟶ 65:
* [[Smoking Is Cool]]
=== Madeline
A human paladin, who makes up for her lack of intelligence with superior fighting ability... most of the time.
* [[Attack! Attack! Attack!]]: Madeline always attacks anyone she considers an enemy, no matter how injured or outmatched she is, because "It's what paladins do." She always prefers to charge into things, and [http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-7-8/ disapproves] of stopping to think, plan, or care whether one might be [http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-7-4/ walking into a trap]. She's [[Badass]] enough to win anyway most of the time, but {{spoiler|this behavior leaves her almost dead in level 6, and gets her killed in level 7}}.
* [[Badass Adorable]]
* [[Bob Haircut]]
* [[Crush Blush]]: Talking of Derek the Cleric.
* [[Cute Clumsy Girl]]: {{spoiler|[http://rustyandco.com/comic/level-8-40/ She becomes one] after dying and being raised from the dead at the end of level 7, seemingly losing her [[She Fu]] abilities.}}
* [[Detect Evil]]: Through smell.
* [[The Ditz]]
* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Madeline's hoe. Later the same gnome who sold her that offers for sale a [[Prongs of Poseidon|+1 Trident]] (a.k.a. a rake). And the next time Madeline appears, she wields a spade. But then, she can kick butt with both of them.
** [[Achievements in Ignorance]]/[[Clap Your Hands If You Believe]]: If she believes a spade is vorpal halberd, it performs as a vorpal halberd? This seems to work even better when she closes eyes.
* [[Lawful Stupid]]
* [[Modesty Shorts]]: Madeline is sensibly wearing (anachronistic) biker shorts under her leather skirt.
* [[Prophecies Rhyme All the Time]]
* {{spoiler|[[Resurrection Sickness]]: Madeline loses her [[Badass]]-ness after dying and being raised from the dead at the end of level 7, with her loss being much greater than is expected for a ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' character.}}
* [[She Fu]]: Madeline often jumps and flips around in combat. However, after her first story arc, she's injured often and bloodily, contrary to the expectations of the trope.
* [[Shovel Strike]]: Madeline's weapon of choice in Level 6.
* [[Spin to Deflect Stuff]]: Madeline shows us how it's done in the page image for this trope.
* [[Sticks to
=== Roxanne Casbaugh ===
Line 90 ⟶ 96:
* [[Wandering Minstrel]]
=== Stabitha “Stabs” Doogan ===
A cheerful halfling rogue, who likes treasure.
Line 100 ⟶ 106:
An overeager human wizard, who works as a law enforcement official for the Princess. Easily excitable.
* [[
* [[Alliterative Name]] / [[Meaningful Name]]
* [[Fireballs]]: Prestige, being at least a level 5 wizard, can cast one, but prefers to save it for big fights.
Line 109 ⟶ 115:
* [[Squishy Wizard]]
== Others ==
=== Anti-Madeline ===
The result of an attempt to create an [[Evil Twin]] for Madeline. Anti-paladin (figures, really). Tiny, because Madeline didn't have much "material" for a full-sized [[Evil Twin]].
* [[Bling of War]]: What would you expect? She definitely didn't inherit Madeline's ''modesty''...
* [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder]]: Blowing up Malevolus.
* [[Enemy Without]]: Not much of an enemy, however, since she doesn't seem to care about Madeline one way or another.
* [[Laughably Evil]]
* [[Mad Bomber]]: Definitely has a thing for pyrotechnics.
* [[Spikes of Villainy]]
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Blue-Green Hair]]: Inverse of Madeline's, get it?
