!!!Platinum Scrumptious

[[folder:In General]]
* ActionDuo: There's only two members of the band.
* FriendlyRival: They have this relationship with Deathbulge, which is part of why the idea of fighting them hits Platinum so hard.
* LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: They both have feminine designs, but Platinum is dressed in bright, cool colors while Scrumptious wears a dark suit and much darker makeup and generally looks more dour than they actually are.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Platinum]]
Faye's good friend and friendly rival.
----
* GenkiGirl: She's very energetic, sunny and friendly when she isn't [[BreakTheCutie suffering a breakdown over the situation she's in.]]
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: You will find very few characters in this game as friendly and loving as the blonde Platinum.
* ItsAllMyFault: She believes this, since she convinced Faye to sign Deathbulge up for the tournament.
* ThePianoPlayer: Her instrument is a circular keyboard that goes around he whole body, almost like a hula hoop.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: She's the one who convinces Faye to sign up for the cursed Battle of the Bands, thinking it would just be a bit of fun, friendly competition.
* YourMakeUpIsRunning: Poor Platinum does not handle the idea of a fatal Battle of the Bands well, and any time she's upset or things are goings south for her, expect her make up and her hair to be a mess.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Scrumptious]]
Platinum's bandmate.
----
* AmbiguousGender: Scrumptious seems to behave in a slightly more masculine manner than Platinum, but their gender is never made clear.
* MonsterClown: Gives this vibe with their design, but is actually perfectly friendly.
* ShakingTheRump: Constantly.

!!!K-Kwak and Recently Hatched

[[folder: In General]]
A boastful duck rapper and his faithful, triangular penguin hypeman.
----
* PocketProtector: In a particularly [[ShockingMoments shocking turn of events,]] [[spoiler:Recently Hatched ends up becoming this for K-Kwak when he takes several blasts from Maelstro for him while hiding in his jacket.]]
* SmallNameBigEgo: K-Kwak, while still a famous music star, is not nearly as big a deal or as powerful as he thinks he is.
* StarterVillain: They're the first antagonist musicians you end up facing in the main story.

!!!Pokalyps

[[folder: In General]]
A highly popular metal band made up entirely of horse-demons.
----
* AllPartOfTheShow: They take this approach to Deathbulge hijacking their concert in order to not lose the crowd. It ends badly for them.
* BlobMonster. Pesto.
* DeathMetal: This is their aesthetic. It helps that they are actual demons.
* DemBones: Deadbones is a skeletal horse.
* DiscOneFinalBoss: A large portion of the game is spent trying to get to them so you can defeat them and get out of the tournament. [[spoiler:Once you succeed, Maelstro shows up.]]
* HorsemenOfTheApocalypse: They are based on this. The lead singer Malnura is Famine, Deadbone the guiarist is Death, Pesto, or "the oozy one" as Scrumptious calls him, is Pestilence, and the hulking, constantly angry drummer Klöpp is War.
* SinisterScythe: Deadbones uses his guitar as one to go with the GrimReaper look.

to:

* SiblingTeam: Faye is Ian's adopted sister, and they're the first two characters you get for the first dungeon. Briff is not related to either of them.



* DoorstopBaby: Iris offhandedly remarks that she found Faye in a garbage bin.
* Fangirl: Of Glamourella. She gushes quite a bit when she meets her spirit aboard the train to Hoho.




to:

* OnlySaneMan: Between the wacky Ian and the space-casey Briff, Faye comes across as the straight man. She's also the one most likely to comment on the sheer weirdness of the world the game takes place in.
* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Tomboyish as she may appear at first sight, she still has bright pink hair and wears a skirt and sleeveless top in her standard outfit. She's also perfectly good friends with the much more overtly girly Platinum.




* ArrogantKungFuGuy: He's constantly bragging about his bod, and is the most confident among the band that they can beat anyone they come up against.
* CloudCuckooLander: Ian's a little bit out there.



* DeadpanSnarker: Not usually, but when he's mad at the band for [[spoiler:lying to him about the true nature of the tournament,]] he gets pretty sullen and snarky. Best shown when Faye tricks Headbanger.
--->Briff: [[spoiler:"We love lying to drummers, huh?"]]




to:

* HeavySleeper: He spends almost the entire tutorial and first quest asleep.

** Headbanger shows reckless disregard for authority and themselves, dishing out massive damage but getting hit in the process.
** Avant-Garde pushes the boundaries of what music is, exploring new horizons by using random and unique effects.
** Distorter can make enemies' ears hurt by applying negative effects to their bar.
** Sampler takes old samples and make them new, combine your beats to take multiple actions per turn
