Characters / Auralnauts Star Wars

Auralnauts Star Wars Saga

Obi-Wan Steven Ben Larry Kenobi (aka "Bongjo")

• Everyone Has Standards: When Anakin describes his 24/7 work schedule to Obi-Wan in Episode 6 of Star Wars: LARRY, Obi-Wan sounds genuinely horrified for what Anakin allows himself to be put through. Unfortunately, because Obi-Wan is such a Manchild, he isn't really able to articulate this rare empathetic moment well to Anakin.
• Going Cold Turkey: Happens in Revenge of the Middle Management, where he finally decides to kick his drug habits, and actually succeeds in doing so until finding out that Anakin has "become a sellout," declaring that he might as well get back into his old habits if that's what sobriety is gonna be like.
• Idiot Houdini: Tends to bumble around being a massive idiot and doing what he pleases with zero regards to consequences, and keeps getting away with it by sheer luck.
• Jerkass Has a Point: As grossly irresponsible as he is, he isn't in the wrong when he points out to Anakin multiple times that it's ultimately Anakin's fault why his relationships turn out so bad. Obi-Wan would've happily stepped aside so that Anakin could date Padme if Anakin had just told him that he liked her, and Reva was a terrible girlfriend who cheated on Anakin behind his back who he shouldn't have gotten serious with.
• Last of His Kind: He is not the last Jedi, but he is the last Jedi who still wants to dance-fight.
• Parental Neglect: Played for Laughs. He promises that he wants to be the best parent in the whole galaxy to Padme, then the scene immediately cuts to him selling Duke off to the first buyer he can find for cash.
• The Stoner: He really has a massive drug problem, which gets acknowledged several times in the series.
• Sudden Name Change: A Running Gag is that he changes his name fairly often, using the pseudonym Larry in order to score some drugs, and then just starting to change names seemingly at random once he gets older. Larry makes fun of this via a remix of the Jedi Dance Party theme, where the lyrics are just every single one of his alternate names.

Anakin Skywalker / Regional Manager Darth Vader / Uncle Anakin

• Cool Uncle: Although not Duke's real uncle, he acts like a father figure to Duke, helping him deal with finding out who his father is. Duke refers to him as Uncle Anakin.
• Doting Parent: He is very protective of his daughter, and is utterly distraught when he thinks she was still on Laser Moon when it exploded. His anger when he finds out she's alive ends up causing him to lash out on Han Solo, thinking that he's a bad influence on her and that she deserves better than him. He is however completely fine with Duke dating her in the next movie, but not without pointing out how inappropriate it is to put her in a metal bikini during one of his shows.
• Friendly Enemy: Even after openly declaring Obi-Wan to be the literal worst person imaginable, Star Wars: LARRY makes it abundantly clear that he still cares enough for his old friend that he's willing to help him kick his self-destructive habits and get a job.
• Just Friends: Has a very obvious crush on Padme, and is distraught when she only sees him as her best friend while she has the hots for Obi-Wan instead, which is part of what pushes him to sell out.
• Nice Guy: Becomes a genuinely nicer person after getting hired by Palpatine for the most part, only really becoming angry when his coworkers try to prank him. Heck, he even tries to genuinely help Obi-Wan long after the two had fallen out, still showing genuine concern over Obi's self-destructive behavior and even offering to help him rehabilitate and get him a job.
• Not So Above It All: Even after becoming Darth Vader and declaring himself above the antics of the Jedi, he still sometimes gets into dance fights and indulges in midichlorians.
• Only Sane Man: Wherever he goes, it seems that he's always surrounded by idiots at all sides. He also slowly loses patience with Mr. Palpatine during Episode 6.
• Sanity Strengthening: Anakin's transformation into Vader is portrayed as him finally regaining control of his life, and it does wonders for his maturity. He ends up having a family, has a decent rapport with his employees, and becomes a decent parental figure for Duke despite being on opposite sides of the Imperium-Rebello conflict.
• Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Created Creepio, which set off the chain of events that lead to some of the biggest atrocities that happen in the series. He has absolutely no idea Creepio is behind any of the bad things that happened (the Tattooine Singularity, Laser Moon blowing up Alderaan, etc) until he hears Mr. Palpatine say his name during a rant.
• Workaholic: As revealed in Episode 6 of Star Wars: LARRY, this is why he's constantly in the suit in this continuity. His line of work pretty much means he's always on the clock, even on his days off/breaks. Obi-Wan actually realizes how terrible the job is but unfortunately is unable to articulate to Anakin how much the job is clearly weighing down on the latter.

Qui-Gon Jinn

• The Quiet One: Says very little at all compared to Kenobi. One conversation with Watto is entirely one-sided as Watto just babbles at him.
• What Happened to the Mouse?: Completely dissapears from the story after Jedi Party with no explanation as to what happened to him, only appearing again as a force ghost in The Last Laser Master. He finally returns in a speaking role once more in Episode 6 of Star Wars: LARRY, where he reappears after having found the legendary tortilla made entirely out of doritos mentioned in Jedi Party.

Padme Amidala

• All Girls Want Bad Boys: This seems to be the primary reason why she chooses Obi-Wan over Anakin for her romantic interest, the implication of which Anakin does not like one bit.
• Love Triangle: Is the target of one between her best friends, Anakin and Obi-Wan. She has zero interest in pursuing a relationship with the former.
• Nice Girl: She is genuinely nice to both Obi-Wan and Anakin, barely even realizing how much she's hurting Anakin by viewing him as her best friend rather than her lover.
• Platonic Life-Partners: How she views her relationship with Anakin. Sadly, Anakin's wish to be more than this is what inevitably drives them apart.

Yoda

• Addled Addict: Is noted several times how bad his addiction really is, when he's pointed out to have been walking through a drive-thru and really is unable to function in a normal society anymore after Revenge of the Middle Management.
• Cloud Cuckoolander: Even before the aforementioned drive-thru incident, he has been known to ignore what his fellow council members and then say the exact same thing immediately afterwards, only really coming up with an opinion of his own when food is involved.
• Nostalgia Filter: Looks back at the prime days of the Jedi Order with much joy, lamenting the loss of the partying and midichlorian counts of these days.

The Jedi Council

• Erudite Stoner: Most of them talk rather eloquently for being incredibly high.
  Ki-Adi Mundi: "I have heard legends of a taco... made entirely out of dorito."

Mr. Palpatine

• Cybernetics Eat Your Soul: Apparently, merging your mind with a crazy A.I., partially responsible for blowing up Alderaan and completely responsible for the Christmas Parade Massacre, is not a good idea.
• Face–Heel Turn: Starts really slipping over the edge after his merge with Laser Moon.
• Honest Corporate Executive: Really only wants to run his businesses in peace, without any actual malicious intent, at least until merging with Laser Moon.
• I Am the Noun: "I am the Singularity! I am flesh perfected, as the maker Creepio has envisioned!"
• Pointy-Haired Boss: Starts showing signs of this in Attack of the Phantom Past, where he insists on changing means of communications with Vader for seemingly no coherent reason, calling on a screen to tell Anakin to get on the hologram, so he can have him to come up to his office.
• Politically Incorrect Villain: He thinks that the holiday of Life Day is just a politically correct name for Christmas, and wants the Life Day Parade rebranded as the Christmas Parade. He ignores Vader's assertion that they're separate holidays and that the Alderaanians (who the entire parade is dedicated to) didn't celebrate Christmas.
  Palpatine: What is this... Life Day nonsense about, anyway?
  Vader: What?
  Palpatine: Why are people afraid to just say Christmas?

Far2-D2

• Big Damn Heroes: Destroys the Singularity Engine before it can cause any further harm.
• Morality Chain: Subverted, he seems to be the one to keep Creepio in check early on, but he's almost as amoral as Creepio himself is, and goes along with just about anything Creepio tells him to. That being said, Creepio did have the threaten him into granting him access to Laser Moon, indicating that Far2 is more afraid of what Creepio could do to him during his more insane moments than actually amoral.
• Only Sane Man: Of the entire cast, he's the only one who can be considered "normal", going as far as to destroy the Singularity Engine.
• Shout-Out: He speaks exclusively in 8-bit video game music and sound effects, including from Super Mario Bros., Contra and Mega Man, among others.

Creepio / FriendBesto / The Maker

• Affably Evil: He's a genocidal, murderous lunatic, but he's quite friendly and polite.
• Ascended Meme: An issue of Marvel's Star Wars comic has a character refer to the murder-happy protocol droid 0-0-0 as "Creepio."
• Amnesiac Dissonance: After his memories are erased, he becomes a harmless and friendly Cloudcuckoolander as opposed to his usual violent insanity.
• Ax-Crazy: Overly psychotic and obsessed with inflicting pain and chaos wherever he goes.
• Big Bad: When all is said and done, he's the one directly responsible for the most death and destruction within the series, particularly in episodes 4 to 6.
• Cloud Cuckoolander: While under the effect of his mindwipe, he seems to have great difficulty with long and short-term memory. He forgets he's been on the same ship for 19 years, forgets Far2's name the moment he's out of his sight, forgets his own name, becomes weirdly obsessed with shoes until rescued by jawas, forgets his own new name until Duke repeats it, and so on.
• Even Evil Has Standards: He takes the coronavirus pandemic very, very seriously.
• Evilutionary Biologist: This, alongside his abandonment issues, seems to be the primary motivator for many of his atrocious acts, whether it be upgrading the residents of Tatooine, evolving Han to the next stage of humanity, or transforming his friends into teddy bears by making them smoke a crap-ton of DMT.
• Freak Out: Gets a huge one as a result of recovering from his mindwipe, which drives him to immediately infect Laser Moon with a virus to give the AI sentience, which in turn results in the obliteration of Alderaan and a whole mess of other problems going forward.
• Freudian Excuse: Blames most of his villainous deeds on his abandonment from Anakin. Needless to say, it's very flimsy at best.
  Anakin: Have you seen my mother? Have you seen anybody?
  Creepio: [Long beat] Well, it's the funniest thing, they're all dead. You killed them!
• Heel–Face Brainwashing: Courtesy of Bail Organa. Let's just say that he wasn't happy about it after regaining his memories.
• Karma Houdini: By the end of episode The Last Laser Master, he still has yet to receive any punishment at all for his actions.
• Knight Templar: He's an unhinged zealot about creating "The Singularity". Seeing as he's insane, his goals are often incomprehensible and eventually devolve into him trying to enact the plot of Avatar.
• Large Ham: "Behold! The greatest achievement in the universe! THE SINGULARITY ENGINE!!!"
• Laughably Evil: Let's face it, a lot of the atrocities he's directly or indirectly responsible are downright horrifying, but he's just so damn hilarious that it's easy to forget about it.
• Meaningful Name: Creepio. Considering written above and below, he is indeed creepy, and is the main source of the Nightmare Fuel in this otherwise light-hearted series.
• Mood Dissonance: His reaction after he blows up Alderaan after forcing Far2 to help him under the threat of Creepio eating his brains?
  Creepio: Yaaaaaaay!
• Outside-Genre Foe: Within the Auralnauts continuity, he's this. Despite the science fantasy set-dressing, the conflicts of the episodes are typically incredibly mundane corporate shenanigans conceptually. Then you have Creepio turning people into cyborgs against their will and transforming an entertainment center into a sentient death weapon that blows up a planet.
• Psychopathic Manchild: Best exemplified when he blows up Alderaan, his psychopathy is only matched by his childish enthusiasm for it all.
• Slowly Slipping Into Evil: Parodied, since it all happens within a minute of his birth. He starts off as being angry about Anakin not giving him any skin, but after a single talk with Far2 he starts going all To the Pain and monologuing about ripping off Jar Jar's skin and wearing it.
• Unwilling Roboticisation: Does this to the population of Tatooine before Far2 blows up the facility.

Regional Manager Darth Maul

• Cloud Cuckoolander: Has a tendency to space out and do whatever he wants, thinking that his businiess trip is just an excuse to pick dance fights with the Jedi.
• Dragon with an Agenda: Palpatine sends him to Naboo to take care of the company's Jedi problem; however, he's only there to show off his dance skills.
• Drives Like Crazy: Drives his hoverbike off a cliff mere moments after getting onto it, to the point where his probe instantly calls Space-911.

Jango Fett

Grievous

• Disabled Snarker: As a survivor of Creepio's singularity engine, he hasn't lost any sense of smacktalk.
• Dr. Jerk: Subverted, he's actually a genuinely nice, only really being rude when he finds that there are Jedi, and particularily Anakin Skywalker, in his hospital running wild and causing dance fights.
• Unwilling Roboticisation: Courtesy of Creepio, and let's just say that he's not happy about it.

Duke Dirtfarmer / Dirk Lasermaster

• BFS: As part of his Laser Master dancefight routine, he wields a laser sword whose length always extends offscreen (even during an establishing shot of Tatooine from space).
• Manchild: Is shown to get very excited about something as simple as a Christmas parade, amongst other things.
• Mushroom Samba: His first and only time using midichlorians didn't really end well, going so far as to make him cry like a baby over his parental issues and having severe nightmarish hallucinations.
• Nice Guy: By far the nicest person in the entire series, the only time he really ever acts mildly annoyed is when faced with people like Obi-Wan and Yoda.
• Parental Neglect: The victim of this, courtesy of Obi-Wan. Needless to say, Duke has some pretty bad issues with it.
• Redeeming Replacement: For the Jedi, as instead of using his dancefighting skills to cause mayhem he uses them to put on spectacular but legitimate performances.
  Anakin: So what is a Laser Master anyway? Is it sort of like the good version of a Jedi? Because I see a lot of their influence in your style, except you're not a giant douche.
• That Man Is Dead: Played with. He and Leia crack a few jokes about how Duke Dirtfarmer the awkward loser is gone, and all that's left is the much more suave Dirk Lasermaster. However, "Dirk Lasermaster" seems to just be a stage name he uses for his dancefighting gig, and he doesn't mind Uncle Anakin still calling him Duke.
• Took a Level in Badass: After becoming Dirk Lasermaster, he gets a lot more confident and composed compared to how he was in the earlier episodes.

Leia Skywalker

• Bratty Teenage Daughter: Somehow manages to forget to call her dad and tell him that she's fine for three whole years, not even bothering to answer his calls once.
• Nice Girl: At the end of the day, she's really just a nice girl to all her friends, even after telling Han that he dumped him and is now dating Duke.
• Valley Girl: A mild example, since she doesn't act nearly as stereotypical as most examples, but she still displays most of the traits in one way or another.

Han Solo / Han Singular / Han Regular

• Just Friends: With Leia by the time of The Last Laser Master. In contrast to Anakin, however, he seems to be taking it pretty well, all things regarded.
• Meaningful Rename: Subverted, Creepio changing his last name from Solo to Singular ultimately means nothing because he didn't change at all, and Singular literally means the same as Solo in the first place.
• Small Name, Big Ego: Really seems to think himself as a real hotshot at everything he does, and he really is a good player in all these games he likes to brag about, but his skills in seducing the ladies... Not so much.
• Unwilling Roboticisation: Subverted, Creepio seems to think this is what happened to him in Attack of the Phantom Past, when in reality the "evolution chamber" he was put into was just a regular old corporate packing machine.

Chewbacca

• Angrish: Chewie speaks only in what can be described as "guy who just stubbed his toe" noises.

Laser Moon

• A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Courtesy of Creepio and Far2 infecting it and making it self-aware.
• Deadpan Snarker: Starts showing signs of this after becoming sentient.
  Laser Moon: "Laser Moon scores 6.5 billion points."
  Laser Moon: "Do not attempt to score on Laser Moon."
• From a Single Cell: Despite being utterly obliterated in Laser Moon Awakens, its consciousness somehow still managed to survive, infect other pieces of machinery, and automatically rebuild itself from practically nothing.

Boba Fett

Lando Calrissian

• Trademark Favorite Food: Beer, a lot of his lines tend to include it in some way, including offering various characters beer and going on a beer run.
• Shout-Out: His obsession with beer is very likely in reference to a series of beer commercials that Billy Dee Williams did back in the days that got rather popular.

DJ Dooku

Jabba

• Adaptational Nice Guy: Whereas he was an utter degenerate slimeball in the original Star Wars series, here, while he's a somewhat spoiled manchild, he is genuinely happy to see that his friends showed up to his birthday party, treating them all nicely when they're there.
• Big Eater: He mistakes Han Singular imprisoned in carbonite for a giant chocolate bar, and brags how he's going to eat the whole thing by himself.
• Big Fun: He's big, he's jolly, he's very excitable.
• Manchild: A very childish person, he acts genuinely joyful to see his friends, and talks about all the gifts he got with a childish glee.
• Retcon: The only previous mention of Jabba in the series was "Saint Jabba's Home for the Survivors of the Singularity Engine" in Revenge of Middle Management. It's unclear whether that has any connection to this Jabba, but since the creators admit they've been making up the plot as they go, it's not surprising a couple things don't match up.

Admiral Ackbar

• Da Chief: Leader of the Space Cops, his job is to crack down on "rebelos" and miscreants using recreational drugs.
• Defied Trope: Absolutely refuses to say the meme phrase "it's a trap" which all of his underlings keep trying to goad him into saying. He doesn't think it's funny.
• Gosh Dang It to Heck!: Because of the higher-ups receiving a complaint about his constant swearing, he now has to restrict himself to swearing heavily in g-rated swears like "Cheese and crackers!"

Granpop, Unkar

Poe

• Shout-Out: Both in-universe and out-of-universe. He says he has to drop a sack of moldy peaches on Kylo Ren's stage because "It's like poetry, it rhymes"—referring both to how Duke blew up Laser Moon in Laser Moon Awakens, and to a George Lucas quote from the The Phantom Menace's behind-the-scenes commentary.

Kylo Ren

• Dreadful Musician: When he tries to rap for real, his music is so terrible that it literally causes his father to drop dead from embarrassment.
• Fake Ultimate Hero: He's not actually the one responsible for writing the beat or lyrics for his hit "Banana Time"; that's all due to the computer in his helmet. Without its help, he's far, far worse.
• Inopportune Voice Cracking: He suffers from this in the middle of his terrible rapping.
• Rage Breaking Point: The scene where he destroys a computer panel with his lightsaber is reframed as him snapping after finding out that not only is Space In-N-Out closed, but the only restaurant in the area open is Jim's, which only serves coleslaw.
• Relieved Failure: When Poe's sabotage to the stage at Laser World causes the concert to be cancelled, Kylo's relieved that it buys him more time to compose a new song.

Rey

• Broken Pedestal: After hearing just how terrible of a rapper Kylo is, she lets out a Big "NO!" and runs away.
• Loony Fan: She's obsessed with Kylo Ren, bordering on being a Stalker with a Crush, and is utterly convinced that if she gets the chance to meet him, he'll fall in love with her. When she gets high with Han and Chewie, she fantasizes about him inviting her to the VIP lounge to enjoy fruit cups together.
• Oblivious to Love: She's so single-mindedly focused on getting tickets to see Kylo Ren that she doesn't even acknowledge when Finn's hitting on her.
• Self-Proclaimed Love Interest: Her response to when Finn asks if he could be her boyfriend:
  "I have a boyfriend. It's Kylo Ren. Well... he will be if I get in."

Finn

• Dogged Nice Guy: He hopes that getting Rey tickets to see Kylo Ren will cause her to fall in love with him.
• Hopeless Suitor: He repeatedly asks Rey if he could be her boyfriend, and she doesn't even acknowledge it.
• On the Rebound: Moments after Rey's obsession with Kylo Ren is shattered, Finn immediately tries to make his move.
  "Hey, can I boyfriend now?"

The Influencers

• Heart Is an Awesome Power: Normally, being an influencer would mean nothing. But in the world of Auralnauts Star Wars, where entertainment venues are centrally important to the setting, they're elevated to the highest imaginable levels of power.
• Mundane Made Awesome: They're social media influencers, which Larry treats as a frightening and dangerous thing to have opposing you. Their leader in particular says everything with as much dramatic flair and gravitas as is physically possible.
• Supermodel Strut: They follow the new hip trend of Strutting. Reva isn't as into it as Shroomboy or the leader Influencer, though.
• The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: Reva definitely has this going on for Larry in regards to dance-fighting him, even knocking out her leader to do so.
• Trapped in Villainy: Reva very obviously just wants to have dance-fights, but is trapped into following the latest trends and fads.

Kylo Ren Official

Kylo Ren

• Byronic Hero: Played for Laughs. He hams it up about his inner conflict, damaged past, and brooding soul.
• Cloudcuckoolander: He tends to get distracted by trains of thought or go Metaphorgotten when talking.
• Deadpan Snarker: His reviews are peppered with witty commentary and (when he doesn't like something) sarcastic criticisms.
• Even Evil Has Loved Ones: In his review for The Rise of Skywalker teaser, he mentions that he can't bring himself to hate Lando Calrissian, who he still views as a Cool Uncle.
• Hair-Trigger Temper: Tends to get into fits of rage extremely easily.
• It's All About Me: Obnoxiously rude and self-centered at most times, and rarely has anything to say to people that isn't insulting in some kind of way or to stroke his ego.
• Manchild: Hilariously immature and prone to acting like a brat trying to look cool but often failing in the worst way possible.
• Villain Respect:
  • Holds massive respect for Saw Gerrera in his Rogue One review despite him being a rebel, stating that he would potentially be a great ally if he wasn't a psychopath.
  • Also holds great respect the Rebels who fought during the battle of Scarif in Rogue One. He was "genuinely moved" by their display of courage and sacrifice.
• Villainous Crush:
  • Clearly has one on Rey while reviewing The Last Jedi, more openly so than his film counterpart. He considers her as "waifu material" and doesn't mind her "ghosting" of him for the time being.
  • In his review for The Rise of Skywalker teaser, he mentions that he wants Poe and Finn to hook up to remove the competition and daydreams about her kissing him at the end of the film.
• "Well Done, Son" Guy: He holds Vader in very high regards and wants to emulate him at all costs, except when he's played by Hayden. Seriously, don't even make Kylo think that Hayden may be playing him.
• You Rebel Scum!: The Rebels and the Resistance are scum for him, save for a few moments of Villain Respect concerning the former.

Stannis Baratheon

• Actor Allusion: Not related to the actor who played Stannis, but rather to Gwendoline Christie, who plays both Brienne of Tarth in Game of Thrones and Captain Phasma in the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. During the Gag Dub of the attack on Tuanul, Phasma suddenly speaks one of Brienne's lines (with her helmet's filter on nonetheless), that is "Sir, he was murdered by a shadow, a shadow with the face of Stannis Baratheon!". Kylo's obsession with Stannis started there.
• The Ghost: Kylo tends to mention him a lot and hates him, but he's never been seen, save for the Mortal Kombat dance parody in "Jedi Party", which isn't part of Kylo Ren Official.
