The main protagonist of the series. Player desperately wants to win an ''Among Us'' game, but is thwarted at every turn.

* ADogNamedDog: He is a player named Player.
* AbortedArc: Various episodes heavily imply his constant failures are driving him insane, culminating in him having what seems to be a full-on mental breakdown after reaching his RageBreakingPoint in "Hacking Security Cams", only for him to revert back to normal in the next episode and his SanitySlippage be ignored.
* AesopAmnesia: Zigzagged. Player often makes mistakes like accusing people he personally doesn't like and repeatedly does so no matter how many times it leads to him losing; however, he tends to learn from other mistakes and losses, though he continuously loses anyway.
* AdaptationalJerkass: ''[[WebAnimation/FridayNightFunkinLogic Friday Night Funkin' Logic]]'' and ''Minecraft Logic'' depict him as an UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist JerkWithAHeartOfGold.
* AffablyEvil: Whenever he's the Impostor, he keeps his friendliness and naïveté.
* AmbiguousSituation: Whether he’s started talking to hallucinations or not.
* AxCrazy: By 12, he harbors the desire to murder everyone in the lobby, and gleefully fantasizes about slowly murdering Captain.
* BadLiar: When he's an Impostor, his attempts at debates usually make him more suspicious than if he had kept quiet. As shown in episode 8, he's too eager to agree with the arguments of the other Impostor, outing them both.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Player is generally friendly and laid back, but he can be downright ruthless whenever he's the Impostor, nearly winning both times before failing.
* BigNo: [[spoiler:After being imprisoned in the Cheater's Lobby.]]
After Wizard gets killed by Arnold Impostornator in Among Us Logic, But The Impostor Works Out.

After he finds out in The Last Crewmate that The Gentleman is [[spoiler:his father.]]
* BondOneLiner: [[spoiler:Right before he kills No-Visor, he gives a particularly badass one.]]
--> '''Player:''' [[spoiler:Hey, No-Visor... ''I win.'']]
* BreakingTheFourthWall: He and Mr. Cheese occasionally address the audience, reference previous episodes as being, well, episodes, and shoe in ads.
* ButtMonkey: He never wins a single round of ''Among Us''. Whenever he’s the Impostor, everyone automatically catches on to him while never actually suspecting anyone else, even if they’re even worse liars than Player, and when he’s a Crewmate, no one believes anything he says and occasionally eject him. [[spoiler:It's eventually revealed that his failures were caused by No-Visor, so he'd feel powerless enough that he’d be easy to possess.]]
* CantGetAwayWithNuthin: [[spoiler:Apparently, everyone else in the lobby can cheat, but if Player does it, then he'll be sent to the Cheater's Lobby forever. It gets subverted when Mr. Cheese is belatedly sent to the lobby for the stunt he pulled with the bots a few episodes prior.]]
* {{Catchphrase}}: He says the phrase "Oh, come on!" in Episodes 4, 8 and Airship Arrival.
* CharacterDevelopment: His failures gradually wear on him and he starts making far rasher and more impulsive decisions, focusing single-mindedly on achieving victory to the point it usually results in him losing. Eventually, [[spoiler:he resorts to cheating, but after being trapped in the Cheater's Lobby, he realizes his friends ultimately mean more to him than winning, though he still decides to continue trying to win]]. However, after that, he's shown to be slightly more cunning and reasonable, but more cynical and bitter.
* CheatersNeverProsper: Episode 13 sees him so desperate for victory that he doesn’t care if the Crewmates win by [[spoiler:Not-Orange and Monster cheating to bring Mother BackFromTheDead. At the end of the round, he finds himself in the Cheater’s Lobby]].
* TheChosenOne: "The Revenge of No-Visor" reveals he's the only one who can stop No-Visor and banish him from the game. It turns out to be a darker variant in "The Curse of No-Visor", [[spoiler:as No-Visor intends to use him as his next vessel, which also means he's the only one who can kill the demon]].
* CosmicPlaything: [[spoiler:His constant failures are actually a result of No-Visor, who has been making him constantly fail since childhood to make him easier to possess.]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Generally reacts to the idiocy around him with sarcasm.
* DecoyProtagonist: Episode 7 has him take a backseat to Blue.
* DependingOnTheWriter: Particularly in later episodes, Player's personality tends to vary. Sometimes he's a slightly gullible NiceGuy, other times a bitter, world-weary OnlySaneMan, an idiot only slightly smarter than the rest of the lobby, or or being totally amoral and on the verge of snapping from his constant losses, sometimes alternating between all of these characterizations in a single episode. Eventually, the series settles on the OnlySaneMan portrayal.
* {{Determinator}}: He refuses to give up on his quest to win a game of ''Among Us'', or to win in general.
* DevouredByTheHorde: [[spoiler:He's torn apart by the zombies at the end of Episode 15.]]
* TheDogBitesBack:
** As the Impostor, he murders Greaser for annoying him in Episode 4.
** After getting a mod that grants him godlike power in "The God Impostor", he immediately starts killing everyone.
* DrunkWithPower:
** A RunningGag in ''GameToons Gaming'' is him going mad with whatever powers the mod of the episode grants him.
** In the series itself, he completely loses it after getting granted a mod that grants him godlike powers in "The God Impostor".
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** As much as he wants to win, he is critical of The Gentleman (His co-impostor "Airship Arrival") killing B-Day in front of Rose, as they were just having a moment. He isn't happy about silencing a distraught Rose either.
** The one crewmate he is generally hesitant to kill is Mother. This is especially notable in "The King Imposter", where she overhears him talking about "murdering his friends". Instead of killing her on the spot, he talks her into leaving the game.
** In Slither.io Logic, he is disturbed by the fact that the glowing pellets are the remains of dead snakes. As such, we never see him eat any pellets in the video.
* FalseFriend: A unique case with Captain. Player makes no bones about how much he ''despises'' Captain, who considers Player his best friend, and occasionally takes advantage of it. However, Player made it bluntly clear to Captain that they weren't friends multiple times before realizing he wasn't getting through to him, and the reason for his dislike of Captain is because he is absurdly clingy and possessive and constantly harasses Player's ''actual'' best friend Veteran. That being said, later episodes dialed this down, instead having Player start to actually consider Captain to be his friend, even if he's still annoyed by the latter's ditziness and ego. The best examples of this are Henry Stickmin Logic and Roblox Logic, where the two team up and work together. In Pico Park Logic, Player even invited him personally.
* FatalFlaw:
** Gullibility. He tends to be easily tricked into suspecting the wrong person or trusting the Impostor. Of course, even if he does catch on, [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption he'll still lose.]]
** Impatience is a consistent trait, and it bites him in the ass a number of times. The biggest example is when he doesn't stick around to hear the end of the three-headed sloth god's sentence in "The God Impostor" and assumes [[spoiler:that he's the impostor, when in fact he's a crewmate, and actually earns his loss for once by killing his fellow crewmates with his new powers]]. Oops.
* FateWorseThanDeath:
** [[spoiler:He gets trapped in the Cheater's Lobby in episode 13]], though he gets out by apologizing to Innersloth a few episodes later.
** [[spoiler:He and Veteran are dragged off by No-Visor to be turned into faceless ghosts at the end of "The Legend of No-Visor", though it's later revealed they were "only" trapped inside the game. It's later revealed that No-Visor actually intends to pull a GrandTheftMe on Player.]]
* {{Flanderization}}: The series has started playing up his status as a NoRespectGuy. At first, Player, while losing at every game, is still regarded as a competent player and pretty well-liked, and the only times he's bluntly mocked for being a loser are by Bro and Mr. Cheese, which are regarded by everyone else as dick moves. However, by "The King Impostor", the only person who actually seems to like him is Captain, and everyone bluntly calls him a loser and the worst player ever to his face repeatedly and gleefully tell him that they're either sick of him or have grown to enjoy watching him fail.
* {{Foil}}: To Mr. Cheese.
* FreakOut: He completely loses it in "Fat Impostor", [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall going into a huge rant]] on the DenserAndWackier turn the series has made and how his victory is constantly snatched away from him by something completely random that someone or other has planned.
* FriendlyEnemy: With the Gentleman and later Mr. Cheese.
* TheFriendNoOneLikes: Gradually becomes this over the course of the series. Pretty much everyone except Captain bluntly calls him a loser to his face, and admit to finding his constant failure amusing at best.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: [[spoiler:Player goes from a NiceGuy to an unscrupulous cheater, and then back again.]]
* HeroicBSOD: At the end of "Hacking Security Cams", after seeing that he's become TheFriendNobodyLikes, that Dum won on her very first game, Captain helped her do it, and that they are now in a relationship results in him having a mental breakdown and becoming eerily silent while twitching uncontrollably.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:He chooses to stay behind and hold No-Visor off in "No-Visor: The Final Chapter" so Captain and Ninja can escape.]]
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Veteran, though this lessens in later episodes.
* ImageSong: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swfgzkFBjqU How Do I Always Lose]]".
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Played with. Player's hang ups about losing, constant failures, and friendly attitude make him come off as this whenever he's the Impostor, but he's anything ''but'' ineffectual... most of the time.
* InformedFlaw: WordOfGod is that he constantly fails because he's a noob. However, in the series itself, it mainly comes across that he usually fails because he's SurroundedByIdiots.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: While he legitimately despises Captain, Player is too nervous to actually admit this and generally goes along with it. However, several times he inadvertently lets the mask slip and makes comments expressing his hatred.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: After both [[TookALevelInJerkass Taking a Level in Jerkass]] and [[TookALevelInCynic Cynic]], he becomes much more bitter and hostile, but he still cares about his friends and does his damnedest to save them all from No-Visor in "The Revenge of No-Visor" and "The Return of No-Visor".
* JerkassToOne: Player's normally a NiceGuy, but he can be a complete and utter ''asshole'' to Captain. Justified, since Captain gives Player plenty of reason to dislike him, being annoyingly clingy and highly possessive.
* TheJinx: He's either this or TheLoad depending on his competency or luck in the episode. No matter how competent his teammates are, they are fated to lose with him due to a mistake he made, bad luck, or his opponents cheating.
* NearVillainVictory: Happens ''all the time'' when he's the Impostor. The biggest examples are "Among Us Logic 2" and "The King Impostor", where he comes within a hair's breadth of winning before a game-breaking scenario screws him over.
* NiceGuy: Generally friendly and laid back. This lessens in later episodes, where his constant suffering results in him becoming something of a bitter {{Jerkass}}.
* NoRespectGuy: Downplayed. The other players do like him... it’s just that they always ignore him, and he always gets killed no matter what he does. It gets exaggerated more in later episodes, where literally everyone bluntly tells him to his face that he's a loser and generally regard him as being slightly more valuable than garbage.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Player always fails whenever he's the Impostor, but he's also legitimately cunning and has nearly won on countless occasions; in fact, he usually manages to kill almost everyone. Tellingly, Engineer and Gnome are legitimately terrified he'll actually kill them when he corners them in "Fat Impostor".
* OffingTheAnnoyance: Whenever he's the Impostor, he's prone to murdering anyone who annoys him. Notable instances of this include [[BoomHeadshot blowing]] [[PaperTiger Greaser's]] [[BoomHeadshot brains out]] and [[NeckSnap snapping Captain's neck]] in the middle of his friendship song.
* OnlySaneMan: Deconstructed. Having to always play the voice of reason, and always suffering for it and losing constantly in spite of his rationality gradually causes him to lose it.
* PreAsskickingOneLiner:
** Happens in "But the Impostor Changes Colors"
-->Player: Well I… think I… [[spoiler:win…]]
* SanitySlippage: His constant failures result in him getting gradually worn-down and becoming more impulsive and obsessive. By episode 7 he's started joining in on the insanity of the rest of the lobby and a few episodes show his desire to win has started to give way to just wanting to murder everyone in the lobby, especially Captain. He snaps completely in "Spying on Mr. Cheese" when his sister not only wins at the game the first time she plays, but hooks up with Captain too, though he's gotten better by the next episode... only for him to start to lose it ''again'' in "Revenge of No-Visor" after being stalked and repeatedly attacked by No-Visor and seeing the ghosts of his friends.
* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The Straight Man to Veteran's Wise Guy.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With Veteran.
* ThrowTheDogABone:
** [[spoiler:At the end of episode 14, he's able to escape the Cheater's Lounge by apologizing to Innersloth.]]
** Though non-canon, he does win as the imposter in GameToons Gaming.
** In the "Secret Room" episode of "GameToons Gaming", The Gentleman invites him into said room after spending the game trying to keep him out.
** While everyone makes fun of his inability to win, Captain points out that he at least tries to win, and The Gentleman acknowledges that he is capable of it. Both of these happen in different episodes.
** After prior episodes have had Player deal with the immense stupidity of his fellow players, the "Impostor School" episode sees Stoner, Poopyfarts, and The Gentleman support Player when he points out that "asdf" looks like a bunch of pets stacked one on top of another. The Gentleman even points out that Mr. Cheese never hangs out with him when the former is the imposter. Player probably could have won had the spaceship pet hadn't hypnotized everyone and kidnapped him.
** [[spoiler:He successfully kills No-Visor and his cult at the end of "No-Visor: The Final Chapter".]]
** [[spoiler: At the end of “Among Us Logic, But The Imposter Changes Colors...”, Player finally wins as Impostor and everyone congratulates him.]]
** When Stoner's cover is blown in the same episode, he makes Player's job easier by framing Rose as the second impostor.
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:At the end of the No-Visor arc, where he chooses to stay behind to fight No-Visor so Captain and Ninja can flee, and successfully kills him in a sword duel.]]
* TookALevelInCynic: He's generally depicted as more cynical and bitter in later episodes thanks to losing all the time. After he goes into TheFriendNobodyLikes territory, he completely descends into cynicism, often making various bitter observations about his friends.
* TookALevelInDumbass: Later episodes portray him as a total noob and kind of an idiot who usually loses the match due to his own incompetence rather than the competent player plagued by bad luck he was initially. It’s implied this is the result of his increasing desperation to win, and he seems to have reverted back to his previous, more cunning portrayal in episode 12.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Later episodes depict him as having become far more amoral and unhinged due to his constant failures, culminating in him cheating to win in episode 13. [[spoiler:He gets better at the end of episode 14, deciding that his friends are more important to him then winning and renouncing his victory]], though he still remains pretty cynical and bitter.
* TookALevelInKindness:
** Downplayed. He makes it abundantly clear that he's '''done''' with [[spoiler:cheating]] and dials back his obsession with winning following Episode 14, but he's much more bitter and cynical.
** Played straight in the No-Visor arc, where he's much more empathetic and concerned with everyone else's welfare. It's justified, considering that they're in a life-or-death situation.
* {{Transplant}}: He had previously appeared in the Fall Guys Logic series.
* UnwittingPawn: Often gets tricked by the Impostors and falls for their gambits, leading to his defeat.
* TheUnFavourite: Implied that his mom prefers Dum more. Inverted with his father.
* VillainDecay: Played with. Later episodes initially started portraying him as being an absolute incompetent at being an impostor, only for episode 10 to have him and Veteran kill everyone except for the bot and Captain, and he would have won if not for the cheating with the bot.
* VillainousBreakdown: At the end of "The King Impostor", an episode where he plays as Impostor, he completely bursts into panic and starts begging Querty to let him back on the ship [[spoiler:after the robot traps him in Navigation and prepares to blast him into oblivion]].
* VillainProtagonist: In the episodes where he's the Impostor.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Downplayed with Veteran. The two usually get along, but occasionally insult each other.
* VocalEvolution: His voice became increasingly higher-pitched and nasal, only to be toned down slightly and gain a bit of a rasp to it.
* YankTheDogsChain:
** [[spoiler:He finally wins in 13, but since he cheated, he's banished to the Cheater's Lobby forever.]]
** He legitimately wins in episode 15, [[spoiler:only to be devoured by a horde of zombies immediately afterwards.]]
** He manages to score a legitimate win in ''Among Us Adventures'', and celebrates after winning a game as the Impostor.
--> '''Player:''' Yes! I won! Player is the best person ever!\\
'''Stoner:''' Too bad it's [[CanonDiscontinuity not canon.]]\\
'''Player:''' [[BigWhat WHAT?!]]
** He nearly wins in "The King Impostor", managing to use his own status as the resident loser to stay away from suspicion, [[spoiler:only to be trapped in Navigation, which is ejected from the ship by [[RobotBuddy Querty]], who proceeds to blast him to oblivion.]]

-> '''Voiced By:''' K. William Scott

Player's friend, and a rookie player.
----

* BewareTheNiceOnes/BewareTheSillyOnes: Captain may seem pretty jolly and dimwitted, but in Episode 15, he [[spoiler: created a zombie virus because he felt Player never considered him a friend.]]

* BewareTheSillyOnes: Captain may seem pretty dimwitted, but in Episode 15, he [[spoiler: created a zombie virus because he felt Player never considered him a friend.]]

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:He's revealed to be one of No-Visor's servants in "Revenge of No-Visor" and hijacks Player's ritual to banish him to summon No-Visor, well aware of he'd kill everyone.]]

* TookALevelInJerkass: He starts getting meaner starting with "Modded Mayhem", culminating in [[spoiler:a full-blown FaceHeelTurn in "Revenge of No-Visor"]].

* DeadpanSnarker: In The Last Crewmate, after freezing Player in carbonite, he gives a snide remark to him.

'''The Gentleman: '''
Sleep tight, General Player! (laughs wickedly)

* {{Flanderization}}: In ''Fall Guys Logic'', he was a highly competent, experienced, and skilled video game expert who was somewhat dimwitted, and could occasionally come off as smarter and more savvy than Player. Here, he’s a complete idiot who barely comprehends how the game functions and is completely incompetent, proving to be a hindrance to Player most of the time. Its simultaneously played straight and reversed as the series goes on; he's become far more competent at the game and more emotionally aware, but also more eccentric and prone to goofy behavior.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Just like Sheriff above, though she makes a cameo in a few Gametunes videos. [[spoiler: Episode 14 reveals she ended up in the Cheater's Lobby for hacking the kill cooldown in Episode 1]].

* InformedAttribute: We don't see much of her supposed kind persona, since she was only in episode 1 [[spoiler:and was one of the Imposters then]]. Subverted as of "Among Us Adventures", where every single one of her appearances has her as a crewmate, and she's shown to mostly be as kind as the Gentleman described.

* AscendedExtra: Has made a few appearances in "Among Us Adventures", implying that he renounced his cheat-fueled victories as well.

* AscendedExtra: B-Day is fairly active in Among Us Adventurers, getting to show off more of his Cuckoolander behavior without Rose around.

* BerserkButton: Anything that angers him enough, such as the Gentleman abusing him or anyone insulting him. [[ReplacementGoldfish Mr. Egg's]] words can also count as well.

* OfficialCouple: With Engineer.

'''Captain:''' [[spoiler:[[WhamLine Your friend [Mr. Cheese] here has been infected with my little virus!]]]]\\

* TheMillstone: In Among Us Logic 2, [[spoiler:he comes back after being ejected just to reveal Player as the Impostor in front of Mother and Bro when he was just about to win. However, there is a theory that this was actually Novisor trying to make Player lose.]]

* TheUnpronounceable: Apparently, in this universe, nobody can say "Jessica". This isn't just a case of the other characters being weird; she says she goes by "Dum" even in real life.

->''"Franklin: (To Dum) You just made the worst mistake of your life. Timmy is growing increasingly violent."''

->''"Franklin: You just made the worst mistake of your life. Timmy is growing increasingly violent."''

* TheMillstone: In Among Us Logic 2, [[spoiler:he comes back after being ejected just to reveal Player as the Impostor in front of Mother and Bro when he was just about to win.]]

** As the Impostor, he murders Greaser for annoying him.

** The one crew mate he is generally hesitant to kill is Mother. This is especially notable in "The King Imposter", where she overhears him talking about "murdering his friends". Instead of killing her on the spot, he talks her into leaving the game.

After Wizard gets killed by Arnold Impostornator.

* TheChosenOne: "Revenge of No-Visor" reveals he's the only one who can stop No-Visor and banish him from the game. It turns out to be a darker variant in "The Curse of No-Visor", [[spoiler:as No-Visor intends to use him as his next vessel, which also means he's the only one who can kill the demon]].

** A RunningGag in ''Among Us Adventures'' is him going mad with whatever powers the mod of the episode grants him.

* HeroicBSOD: At the end of "Spying on Mr. Cheese", after seeing that he's become TheFriendNobodyLikes, that Dum won on her very first game, Captain helped her do it, and that they are now in a relationship results in him having a mental breakdown and becoming eerily silent while twitching uncontrollably.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: After both [[TookALevelInJerkass Taking a Level in Jerkass]] and [[TookALevelInCynic Cynic]], he becomes much more bitter and hostile, but he still cares about his friends and does his damnedest to save them all from No-Visor in "Revenge of No-Visor" and "The Return of No-Visor".

After he finds out in The Last Crewmate that The Gentleman is his father.

** When Stoner's cover is blown in the same episode, he makes Players job easier by framing Rose as the second impostor.

* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: "Hacking Cams" shows he's guilt-ridden over [[spoiler:the whole zombie virus thing]].

* TookALevelInCynic: He's generally depicted as more cynical and bitter in later episodes thanks to losing all the time. After he goes into TheFriendNobodyLikes territory, he completely descends into cynicism, often making various bitter observations about his friends.
