Dino Attack Agents

Founding Members

Team Leader Specs

From LEGO Dino Attack

• Adaptation Personality Change: In the original toyline, Specs was a staunch idealist who would have heated arguments with Shadow. In the RPG, Specs is instead given a stoic, reserved personality and acts as an efficient leader by striking a balance between idealist and pragmatic viewpoints.
• Big Good: As The Leader of Dino Attack Team, Specs is the leader of the cause to save the world from a dinosaur apocalypse.
• Benevolent Boss: Despite seeming cold and harsh at times, Specs genuinely cares about the welfare of his team.
• Captain Smooth and Sergeant Rough: Specs is the Captain Smooth to Shadow's Sergeant Rough. Specs is the calm team leader who doesn't wish to exterminate the dinos, and he is frustrated when Shadow doesn't follow orders.
• Cool Mask: Specs always wears a balaclava.
• Colonel Badass: Specs is the leader of the Dino Attack Team, and frequently participates in the battlefield against the Mutant Dinos.
• Death Glare: Since his eyes are the only visible portion of his face, Specs occasionally uses his piercing glare to intimidate others.
• Expy: Although he is a character from the original Dino Attack line, PeabodySam has confirmed that Specs's depiction in Dino Attack RPG was inspired by Philip Broyles.
• The Faceless: Specs always wore a mask during the Dino Attack. He continued to be The Faceless after the Dino Attack, including (for the reader, anyways) when he is actually unmasked!
• A Father to His Men: Specs cares for the Dino Attack agents under his command, even trying to order inexperienced recruits to leave the battlefield in order to save as many lives as he could.
• Gadgeteer Genius: Specs invented most of Dino Attack Team's technology, including the Xenon Multi-Mode Launcher.
• I Was Never Here: According to Specs, he most certainly did not have an argument in his office with Rex and Amanda about the identity of the mole.
• Ideal Hero: Specs wishes that they could win the war without needing to exterminate the Mutant Dinos. However, he's willing to downplay his own ideal beliefs to consider the Pragmatic Hero's side as well, since he believes that Both Sides Have a Point.
• It Has Been an Honor: Specs has used this trope when talking to his fellow Dino Attack agents towards the end of the Final Battle.
• The Leader: Commander of the entire Dino Attack Team.
• Malevolent Masked Men: Specs wears a balaclava; even though he is a good guy, it's a sign that he's not one to be messed with.
• Mole in Charge: Framed as such during the mole hunt, with Ata disguising himself as Specs to trick witnesses (such as Rex) into believing that Specs was the mole.
• Omnidisciplinary Scientist: Specs is a chemist, a paleontologist, a biologist, a nuclear physicist, and a technician all in one.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: He is only ever known as Specs.
• The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Despite being an Omnidisciplinary Scientist, Specs is rarely shown putting his scientific abilities to use in Dino Attack RPG.
• Reasonable Authority Figure: Specs is more fair than the more extreme founding members like Digger or Shadow, and believes that Both Sides Have a Point when it comes to the "idealists vs. realists" debate.
• Red Herring Mole: Specs was apparently the killer of Scout, Heavy, and Soldier. However, it turned out be a set-up by the real mole, who was disguised as Specs when he committed those murders.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Science Hero: The Big Good leader of Dino Attack team, saving the world from an apocalyptic dinosaur outbreak, is an Omnidisciplinary Scientist.
• The Stoic: Not nearly on the same level as Michelle Glados, but Specs does keep his emotions from interfering with his judgment.
• Supporting Leader: Although Specs is the Big Good and The Leader of the Dino Attack Team, he does not get as much screentime or focus as the players' primary characters.

Elite Commando Agent Digger

From LEGO Dino Attack

• Adaptation Personality Change: In the original toyline, Digger's defining character trait was his thrill-seeking. In the RPG, Digger takes Specs's original personality of being a staunch idealist who seeks to win the war without exterminating Mutant Dinos.
• Adaptational Villainy: Unlike his role as a clear hero from the original Dino Attack toyline, Digger revolted against Specs and commanded the Dino Attack Team with an iron fist in this RPG. Downplayed when it was revealed that he acted this way only because he was under the influence of the Maelstrom.
• Adventurer Archaeologist: Digger is a paleontologist with a love for adventure and excitement.
• Badasses Wear Bandanas: This thrill-seeking crack shot wears a red bandana tied around his forehead.
• Cartesian Karma: Downplayed. Digger took full responsibility for his mutiny, accepting a demotion in rank and even performing menial tasks to try making it up to Specs. Once it became clear that he had actually been influenced by the Maelstrom and wasn't in the right mind, his elite commando agent rank was quickly reinstated.
• Ideal Hero: Digger is friendly and easy-going, and he strongly wishes to protect the lives of Mutant Dinos.
• Improbable Aiming Skills: Although he was just a paleontologist before the Dino Attack, Digger is reputed for his dead aim with the Cosmotronic Ray.
• In Harm's Way: Digger lives for thrills, often placing himself in dangerous situations to increase the dramatic tension.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: He is only ever known as Digger.
• The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Digger's knowledge of paleontology is seldom brought up in Dino Attack RPG.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Science Hero: Digger is a paleontologist who is saving the world from dinosaurs.
• The Smart Guy: Digger's knowledge of paleontology serves as an asset to Dino Attack Team's understanding of the dinosaurs.

Elite Commando Agent Shadow

From LEGO Dino Attack

• Adaptational Ugliness: In the original toyline, Shadow's minifigure bears several grey marks across his face. According to Standing Small, this was intended to be camouflage paint. However, the RPG instead depicts these markings as ugly scars.
• Bald Head of Toughness: Shadow is bald. It fits his personality as the toughest, roughest member of the Dino Attack Team.
• Captain Smooth and Sergeant Rough: Shadow is the Sergeant Rough to Specs's Captain Smooth. Shadow is the driven soldier willing to exterminate the dinos, and he often goes against Specs's orders.
• Combat Pragmatist: Shadow will use any trick in the book to defeat an enemy, and isn't afraid to resort to underhanded tactics.
• Good Scars, Evil Scars: The fact that Shadow bears large scars on his face is a good visual indicator that he's one of the meanest, toughest members of Dino Attack Team.
• It's Personal: In the initial invasion, mutant dinosaurs leveled Shadow's entire neighborhood, causing him to be among the most driven members of the Dino Attack Team.
• The Lancer: He is a Foil to Specs while serving by his side due to his emotionally-driven desire to exterminate the dinosaurs, going against Specs's tactics and intentions to study the dinosaurs.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: He is only ever known as Shadow.
• Military Maverick: Shadow does whatever he wants regardless of orders, much to the frustration of Specs.
• The Power of Hate: Shadow is one of the most driven members of the team, eager to exterminate the mutant dinosaurs after they devastated his home.
• Pragmatic Hero: Shadow is determined to win the war against the Mutant Dinos by any means necessary.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Team Member in the Adaptation: In the RPG, Shadow's backstory includes him working as a black ops Alpha Team agent, which was not a part of his character in the original toyline.

Elite Commando Agent Viper

From LEGO Dino Attack

• Badass Driver: He used to be a racer before being drafted into Dino Attack Team.
• Buffy Speak: Since Viper isn't a scientist, he doesn't bother trying to refer to the dinosaurs by name. He just calls them "scales", "thunder lizard", etc.
• Conscription: One of the first civilians to be drafted. However, despite being drafted into the team, Viper helped Specs, Shadow, and Digger in laying down the basics of the organization, which is why he is considered a founding agent.
• Cool Shades: Viper is always seen wearing sunglasses.
• Glory Seeker: Viper secretly desires to defeat the biggest and baddest T-Rex single-handedly. He got his wish.
• The Heart: He gets along well with the other founding members and is usually the one to calm Shadow down.
• Lightning Bruiser: Viper's strategy is to attack first with lightning speed.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: He is only ever known as Viper.
• Pragmatic Hero: Not as much as Shadow, but Viper doesn't care for the Mutant Dinos and is willing to exterminate them.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Rugged Scar: Although mostly masked by his Cool Shades, Viper has a prominent scar on his left cheek, fitting the tough world of Dino Attack RPG.

Elite Agents

Elite Agent Rick "Adventure" Spherus

A proud and boastful Adventurer Archaeologist, Rick was one of the commanding elite agents who oversaw the Adventurers' Island campaign.

• Absurd Phobia: Of all the things that a manly man like Rick could possibly be afraid of, you probably wouldn't expect it to be butterflies.
• Adventurer Archaeologist: Rick is a member of the Explorers Club, but his love for rugged adventure and crocodile wrestling suggests he doesn't have much in common with real world adventurers.
• Awesome Aussie: Rick hails from Australia and is an awesome Adventurer Archaeologist.
• Chivalrous Pervert: He openly flirted with Amanda Claw, despite knowing fully well that she was already Rex's girlfriend. However, he's really a nice guy and he respects the fact that Rex is in a relationship with Amanda, willingly backing off when he was called out on his flirting.
• Defiant to the End: Adventure's last words were a big "ZNAP YOU!" to Dr. Rex.
• Disconnected by Death: Adventure's last words were heard over the radio by Rex. He did not respond to Rex afterward.
• Expy: Basically, he's "Rick" the Adventure Sphere, Saxton Hale, and Johnny Thunder thrown in a blender. It game PeabodySam an excuse to have a Johnny Thunder-esque character in At War's End when Thunder himself was unavailable due to LEGO Universe canonically taking place at the same time.
• Fedora of Asskicking: Much like Indiana Jones and Johnny Thunder, Adventure wears a fedora to suit his Adventurer Archaeologist appearance.
• Giving Someone the Pointer Finger: In First Assignment, Rick was noted to have a very dramatic way of pointing at people such as Walker or Rex.
• Great White Hunter: As a Dino Attack agent, Rick is a proud hunter of Mutant Dinos, but that makes him no less heroic.
• Heroic Sacrifice: Adventure sacrificed himself to buy Rex and others enough time to escape Dr. Rex.
• Killed Offscreen: It comes with being Disconnected by Death.
• Large Ham: Rick speaks in a loud and boisterous manner. Even pointing is done dramatically.
• Meaningful Name: Adventure is an adventurer.
• Mr. Vice Guy: Rick may be a flirtatious womanizer, but he's otherwise a genuinely heroic guy who'll do what's right in the end.
• Not Afraid to Die: Adventure was willing and eager to perform a Heroic Sacrifice that could buy Rex and others enough time to escape.
• invokedPoor Man's Substitute: Walker snarkily refers to Rick as the poor man's Johnny Thunder.
• Sleeves Are for Wimps: Rick, being a macho man, wears a sleeveless Dino Attack vest. He even commends Rex for ripping off one of his own sleeves, thinking that he wanted to show off some manly muscle.
• Talkative Loon: He's sane for the most part, but some of his metaphors end up as nonsensical rambling.
• Testosterone Poisoning: All of Adventure's extreme machoism is Played for Laughs, or else made too exaggerated to take seriously.

Elite Agent Cabin

A rather tough, no-nonsense, but still well-intentioned individual, also a qualified helicopter pilot.

• Ace Pilot: Cabinr received piloting training in the LEGOLAND Air Force, and is a skilled T-1 Typhoon pilot in the Dino Attack Team.
• Action Girl: Cabin is a member of the LEGOLAND Air Force in addition to being a Dino Attack elite agent.
• Battle Couple: Becomes one alongside Rotor near the end of the war... unfortunately their relationship doesn't last long afterwards
• Did Not Get the Girl: Her relationship with Rotor quickly went downhill when the war ended.
• Distaff Counterpart: Cabin is basically a female, slightly less aggressive version of Rotor.
• Expy: Of Trudy Chacon.
• Hidden Heart of Gold: Cabin's willing to do what needs to be done, but it doesn't mean she isn't capable of being a good person.
• The Lancer: Toward Rotor when it comes to aerial combat.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: She is only known as Cabin.
• Pragmatic Hero: Cabin is a cold woman who is not afraid to shoot first and ask questions later. She always does what's necessary to achieve the mission objective.
• Twofer Token Minority: Being both female and Latino.
• Shell-Shocked Veteran: After the war, she developed PTSD.
• The Smurfette Principle: For much of the Adventurers' Island arc and the final battle, Cabin was the only named female pilot actually fighting under Rotor's command (the only other pilot being Mac).

Elite Agent Cameron O'Cozy

A seemingly crazy agent who almost met his end by riding a bomb, but somehow survived. Later went on to start a massive campaign to murder the idealist members of the team. In actuality he was an android programmed by XERRD to infiltrate the team and weaken its forces by manipulating its members against each other.

• Cloud Cuckoo Lander: Subverted. Cam O'Cozy was initially set up as a crazy lunatic, but the later revelation of him being an android would suggest that this was just a ruse.
• Expy: Cam O'Cozy started as an Expy of Major "King" Kong from the movie Dr. Strangelove, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb and ended as an Expy of Ash from Alien.
• The Mole: Cam O'Cozy was planted in Dino Attack Team by XERRD.
• Not Quite Dead: Cam O'Cozy initially appeared to be a case of this, seeing as he inexplicably survived riding a bomb. However, considering his later reveal as an android, a logical explanation is that the version who had been responsible for the idealist-realist feud was a separate model with the same appearance.
• Punny Name: His name is a pun on "Kamikaze".
• Robotic Reveal: O'Cozy was eventually revealed to be a XERRD android in disguise.

Elite Agent Garry Moffat

Base commander at Outpost 4.

• Characterization Marches On: Garry was originally conceived as a far more brutal character who would not only torture the XERRD prisoners alongside Rotor but blackmail Copper into keeping quiet about their actions. Eventually Atton's posts started to humanize him, making the character somewhat more sympathetic and likeable.
• Da Chief: Of Outpost 4.
• Expy: Of Garry.
• Heel Realization: When he started to feel bad about his role in torturing Jenny.
• If You Kill Him, You Will Be Just Like Him!: Garry's moral issues over whether to turn in Rotor. On the one hand he could keep quiet, allowing the team to keep a good leader that they will need in the upcoming battle, but he is still an accomplice to cold-blooded torture, making him no better. On the other hand, he could turn Rotor in. However, the team would be deprived of the one man who can lead a T-1 squad. He would also most likely be punished himself though probably not as severely as if he kept quiet, and worst of all Rotor might try to kill him out of anger. Interestingly, Garry actually chose to keep quiet, though he deliberately faked Jenny's death to get her as far away from Rotor as possible.
• My God, What Have I Done?: Garry got this twice, though he didn't use those exact words. First when he visited Jenny shortly after torturing her in cold blood, and then a second time when he unwittingly botched the assault on the real Maelstrom temple by bringing a power-hungry Stromling inside.
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Donald Moffat.
• Seamless Spontaneous Lie: Garry's managed to make a few in an effort to cover up his role in torturing prisoners.

Elite Agent Minerva Fabello

A young Dino Attack agent whose joined to avenge the death of her brother. Until she found that he had betrayed the Dino Attack Team and was working for XERRD. Just another issue she had with her family.

• Action Girl: She proved herself to be an effective enough Dino Attack agent to be promoted to elite rank.
• Battle Couple: With Zachary Virchaus.
• Big, Screwed-Up Family: Has an alcoholic and insane mother who murdered one of her brothers and a mentally unstable older brother who raised her.
• Brainy Brunette: Stated to be rather intelligent, a trait that seems to run in her family.
• Cain and Abel: Her relationship with Oswald was rather strained upon learning they fought for different sides.
• Dark and Troubled Past: Her father died, her mother went insane, and she turned to a life of crime as a young child.
• Don't You Dare Pity Me!: Dislikes being felt sorry for when the issue of her family comes up.
• Heroic BSoD: Suffered a brief one in the Maelstrom Temple, a minor one after Athena's death, and one more after killing Oswald, only forcing herself out of it after being goaded by the Darkitect into keep fighting and to avenge her fallen family.
• Interrupted Suicide: Holly Vinyaya arrived before Minerva could kill herself with the knife she used to kill her brother
• Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: Minerva uses a gun while Zach would use a knife.
• Just Friends: Minerva claimed that she and Zach were this. However, it was apparent before and after her statement that their feelings for each other was beyond being "just friends".
• Locked into Strangeness: Gained several white streaks in her hair after nearly being choked to death by the Maelstrom.
• The Matchmaker: To Vinyaya and Bluetooth.
• Official Couple: With Zachary Virchaus.
• Outgrowing the Childish Name: Minerva had not been referred to by her family nickname "Minnie" in four years.
• Shell-Shocked Veteran: As hinted in "Fifteeniversary", Minerva developed PTSD after the war and needed therapy, support, and medication to recover.
• Shipper on Deck: Not to the degree of Zachary, but supports Vinyaya getting together with Bluetooth.
• Strong Family Resemblance: Grew up to look very similar to her mother.
• Tsundere: Displayed traits of Type A when first meeting Zach, but seemed to migrate to a Type B later on.
• What You Are in the Dark: Baron Typhonus attempted to goad Minerva Fabello into pushing Andrew into a death trap in the Pharaoh's Forbidden Ruins while Minerva and Andrew were alone. At the last second, Minerva saved Andrew from the trap.

Elite Agent French Fries

A dim-witted Elite Agent whose poor decisions often cause ridiculous amounts of trouble.

• The Ditz: Among other things, French Fries believes that slowly marching towards the enemy is an effective battle strategy.
• Double Standard: He had Rotor arrested for trying to execute George. Fair enough, but he also had George arrested for disobeying orders- the same orders that Rotor was trying to have him executed as punishment for disobeying... and did I mention that he wants to have both men shot by firing squad?
• Expy: Drew some inspiration from General Melchett, especially noticeable when he appeared in At War's End (as an inside joke he was even described as having a handlebar mustache).
• Genre Blind: When it comes to a list of things to do in a war - not even an apocalyptic dinosaur war, but any war at all - French Fries checks off all the things not to do.
• Hanging Judge: French Fries did not hold a fair trial for Rotor and George Brown.
• Hanlon's Razor: He's probably not malicious. He's just very dangerously incompetent.
• Hate Sink: The reason why Atton Rand brought him back in At War's End was so that other players could get revenge on him for the Antarctica riots, and he even wrote French Fries to be even more unlikable and incompetent to encourage this. Of course, he didn't expect just how far other players would go in their revenge...
• Insane Admiral: Despite being an elite agent, French Fries is known for being an incompetent lunatic.
• Insane Troll Logic: French Fries chose his codename because "It's such a stupid codename it's the last name anyone will expect".
• Insufferable Imbecile: French Fries is not only a horrible tactician with incredibly stupid ideas, but he also enjoys rubbing in his authority and taunting those that he sees as beneath him. This makes him unintelligent and thoroughly unlikeable.
• Judge, Jury, and Executioner: This is why you should keep French Fries out of the courtroom.
• Leitmotif: In the Complete Soundtrack playlist, French Fries's theme is "Gilderoy Lockhart" from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
• Only Known by Their Nickname: He is only known as French Fries.
• Pointy-Haired Boss: I dare you to find one decision he made that didn't have unpleasant consequences.
• Smug Snake: French Fries is sure that he is well-deserving of his elite agent ranking and believes that his supposed "friends in high places" will protect him from anyone who raises a finger against him. As such, he comes across as incredibly smug, even boasting to Rex's face that he supposedly ran over Trouble with a vehicle. The result is that he gets utterly humiliated: he is arrested, violently assaulted twice, stripped of his ranking, and discharged from the team, all the while unable to even put up a good fight.
• Screw the Rules, I Have Connections!: French Fries believes that he can get away with anything because he supposedly has friends in high places.
• Straw Character: French Fries was such a Straw Character that it would be insulting to Straw Characters if we called him one.

Elite Agent Shannon "Gromtin" Grimton

• Adaptational Nationality: While her nationality is never stated in At War's End, the Director's Cut reveals that she is British.
• Adaptational Nice Guy: While she starts off as cold and bitter towards Frozeen in At War's End, she acts more cordial and friendly towards him in the Director's Cut.
• Adaptational Romance Downgrade: In Dino Attack: At War's End, it is implied that Peter Abody and Shannon Grimton become an Official Couple afterward. This is no longer the case in the Director's Cut, where Shannon gently turns Peter down and they remain Just Friends.
• Adaptation Name Change: A downplayed example in the Director's Cut. Her real name remains unaltered, but Shannon no longer uses "Gromtin" as a codename, instead being referred to by her surname "Grimton".
• Brainy Brunette: Shannon has brown hair and is a Gadgeteer Genius.
• Closest Thing We Got: The rationale of the founding members when they temporarily promoted Shannon Grimton, who was a technology expert, to head of communications. Of course, they only remembered afterwards that they had Hertz, who was much closer for the job...
• Communications Officer: After Ata was exposed as The Mole, Shannon was promoted to this position due to her technological expertise, although she admitted that she was not as fit for the job as fellow agent Hertz.
• Deconstruction: Shannon acts as a minor Deconstruction of the Red Shirt trope. That random, minor character who got offed early on and nobody cared about him? While he might not have left much impact on the plot of the story, he does have family and friends who do care about him and are grieved to hear the news of his death. As it turns out, Shannon was the daughter of one such Red Shirt.
• Defrosting Ice Queen: In the original At War's End, Shannon has traits of this trope. She starts off cold and distant towards Frozeen, but gradually warms up and opens up to him as he wins her over. Averted in the Director's Cut, where Shannon is much more cordial towards Frozeen from the start.
• The Engineer: Shannon studied engineering in school.
• Everyone Went to School Together: She and Frozeen went to school together.
• Gadgeteer Genius: Among the modifications she made to her wheelchair include a rocket launcher, lasers, and More Dakka.
• Genius Cripple: The trope is played with. Shannon Grimton is a biomedical engineer and technology expert, but she learned all this before breaking both her legs in the Dino Attack and being confined to a wheelchair, so her Genius is not "compensation" for being a Cripple.
• Handicapped Badass: She might not be on the battlefield like Rex or Hotwire, but her Super Wheelchair comes with lasers, rocket launchers, and More Dakka.
• Just Friends: In the Director's Cut, Shannon makes it clear that she has no romantic feelings towards Frozeen. The two agree to remain friends, and they do not hold onto any resentment over the fact.
• Last-Minute Hookup: With Frozeen in the original At War's End, but not in the Director's Cut.
• Legacy Character: Shannon "Gromtin" Grimton is the daughter of Gromit "Gromtin" Grimton from Alpha Team: Mission Deep Freeze RPG, although she does not take up the codename in the Director's Cut.
• Lineage Comes from the Father: In the original At War's End, Gromtin inherited her father's Alpha Team codename. Subverted in the Director's Cut, in which she says that the codename wouldn't have the same meaning for her as it did for him.
• Remember the New Guy?: Frozeen instantly recognized Shannon Grimton when she was first introduced. This was Lampshaded by Greybeard, who referred to this trope by name when he was confused about how Frozeen and Shannon knew each other.
• Super Wheelchair: Shannon Grimton's wheelchair has a minigun, a laser device, and a rocket launcher.
• Tuckerization: Shannon is named after one of PeabodySam's friends.
• Wrench Wench: Studied to be an engineer, and used her knowledge to modify her wheelchair.

Elite Agent Wanda "Nails" Nielsen

An elite agent who was known for being tough. She was killed by FUTURE because of the important role she played in the original timeline.

• Action Girl: One of the few identified female elite agents on the team.
• Defiant to the End: With no chance of escaping FUTURE, her last free action was to shoot Fogel. Unfortunately, it didn't work.
• Dies Wide Open: When Danny, Francis, and Gaston arrive at the outpost, Danny finds Nails' corpse with her eyes widen open. He respectfully closes her eyelids.
• Doomed by Canon: She discovered the Maelstrom Temple much earlier than what happened in canon, and her "Hindsight is 2020" interview reveals other details that don't line up with canon. This heavily foreshadows The Reveal that she was killed by FUTURE in the canonical timeline.
• Drill Sergeant Nasty: She was known for being very tough on her trainees, believing that it would help them prepare for the battlefield.
• Red Baron: She earned her nickname "Nails" for her notoriously tough attitude.

Elite Agent Cdr. Joseph "Pharisee" St. John

The Head of the Dino Team's Internal Affairs department, Pharisee see his job as a divine mission to track down and punish the unrighteous. He grew up in Mozambique and was sent to prison after murdering the men who killed his parents. While incarcerated he found religion and came to the conclusion that he would burn for the crimes he's committed. Under the impression his fate was sealed he dedicated his life to punishing those who he deemed as bad as he was.

• Anti-Hero Definitely an unscrupulous hero.
• Asskicking Leads to Leadership: Commander Pharisee for Dino Attack's internal affairs.
• Badass Longcoat: Pharisee wears one as head of internal affairs.
• Badass Preacher: Of the two "religious" characters in the RPG, Pharisee is probably the closest to a preacher.
• The Big Guy: His tall, intimidating stature and physical strength made him a force not to be trifled with.
• Black-and-Gray Morality: Pharisee's perspective regarding himself and the people he hunts, Trigger in particular.
• Black-and-White Insanity: Pharisee suffers from this, believing that everyone is either good or bad, and struggling to comprehend that there could be shades of gray such as Montoya.
• Boomerang Bigot: He does unethical thinks to catch unethical people. Pharisee see himself as inherently amoral and beyond redemption so why bother? He mine as well direct it at other bad people.

• Good Is Not Nice: He is the head of internal affairs but is utterly ruthless against those he considers sinners.
• He Who Fights Monsters: He really is not much different then the people he hunts. The fact that he hunts them at all is his redeeming quality.
• Holier Than Thou: Somewhat subverted. Pharisee see's himself as on the same level as the men he hunts but still considers himself the better man because he only Pays Evil Unto Evil. When he compares himself to his peers on the Dino attack team he sees himself as unworthy to associate with them because of the crimes he's committed.
• Holy Hitman: He is known to quote Biblical verses as he takes down his targets.
• Inspector Javert: Especially during the mole hunt, because he suspected (with good reasoning and strong evidence to back it up) that Amanda Claw was behind the murders, even though she was innocent. This later showed in his pursuit of Trigger, Snake, and Montoya (especially that last one).
• Knight Templar: Pharisee answers to no authority except his own, believes in Black-and-White Morality even in the face of demonstrable evidence to the contrary, and is willing to murder anyone whom he sees as anything short of saintly.
• Large and in Charge: Pharisee is the 6'9", over 325 lbs badass head of Internal Affairs.
• Pay Evil unto Evil: Pharisee's idea of justice is to take it upon himself to physically assult sinners.
• Pragmatic Hero: Pharisee is willing to do whatever it takes to ensure justice and make an example out of sinners.
• Principles Zealot: Pharisee's Black-and-White Insanity leads him to pursue those who do not necessary deserve his punishment, such as Montoya.
• Religious Bruiser: Pharisee is The Fundamentalist and The Big Guy.
• Scary Black Man: Pharisee is one of the few characteres to be explicitly identified as black, and he is definitely a scary man who is not to be trifled with.
• Token Religious Teammate: Pharisee is one of the few Dino Attack agents to show his devout faith in Christianity.
• The Unfettered: Nothing holds Pharisee back from his goal of exacting justice upon others.

Elite Agent Randal "Semick" Tennoly

• Berserk Button: Semick doesn't respond well to complete idiocy, especially in regards to someone actually thinking LEGO Island's disappearance was faked.
• Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?: Semick attacked Dr. Rex after Baron Typhonus's Divine Intervention. It wasn't enough to actually hurt him, but it was more a way of showing defiance.
• Enraged by Idiocy: One of the only things that can push his Berserk Button.
• A Father to His Men: He was dedicated to protecting his men, and did not like losing those under his command.
• Heroic Sacrifice: Semick performed one to hold off Dr. Rex from reaching the headquarters.

• It Has Been an Honor: Semick has used this trope when talking to his fellow Dino Attack agents towards the end of the Final Battle.
• Killed Off for Real: Semick died performing a Heroic Sacrifice in the final battle.
• The Leader: Semick is a natural-born leader, ready for any crisis. Especially during the Adventurers' Island mission and final battle, other Dino Attack agents looked up to Semick as their leader.
• Leitmotif: In the Complete Soundtrack playlist, Semick's theme is "There's A Man I Know" from Doctor Who.
• Named After Somebody Famous: "Semick Tennoly" is an amalgam of Lemony Snicket.
• Not Afraid to Die: Semick's death might be one of the most dignified deaths in the entire RPG.
• The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Although he was slated to have participated in the Goo Caverns mission, we never got to see Semick's mining abilities put into use during Dino Attack RPG.
• Remember the New Guy?: Semick met Zero at one point, even though BZP Noob #30000 was banned from BZPower long before Andrewnuva199 joined the RPG.

A young recruit stationed on Adventurers' Island who formed a brief friendship with Kate Bishop.

• Nice Guy: Especially established by his friendly conversations with Kate.
• What Happened to the Mouse?: He disappeared after a hoard of mutant dinosaurs destroyed the camp and was never seen again. It is possible that this was either due to him running away, getting lost, and not managing to get back with the team (or at least ended up somewhere other than Outpost 4 with the rest of the main characters) or, possibly more likely, he was killed in the rampage.

Rookie Agent Kara Wise

• Ace Pilot: Kara Wise is such a great pilot that Dr. Cyborg hires her to fly the Dawn.

A teenager with a somewhat troubled background. Having been born to a single mother because of an affair in a hospital whose brother was institutionalized soon after, Kate lived a hard life while her mother ran into massive financial troubles due to debts her brother owed. She later joined the team hoping to make something of her life, only to quickly end up in over her head in a conflict where she does not belong.

• Affirmative Action Girl: Kate Bishop was introduced solely because Atton Rand noticed that all of his characters, sans Zenna and Elizabeth, were male.
• Audience Surrogate: Kate Bishop more or less acts like anyone who had been sent on their first mission to a tropical island inhabited by mutant dinos probably would.
• Break the Cutie: Somewhat.
• Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu: She did manage to defeat the Darkitect on Adventurers' Island and to help banish him from the planet in LEGO City, but she ended up being severely traumatized by both experiences and nearly died from a drug overdose.
• Broken Tears: Her defining characteristic, starting with her being locked in Wallace Bishop's office in the XERRD Fortress.
• Characterization Marches On: Kate was initially set up as something of a rookie with the potential to become an Action Girl before evolving into a more deconstructive portrayal of a teenager who joined the team never really knowing what she was getting into.
• Child Soldiers: She was treated as one at first, though it got better later.
• Cry into Chest: Both Pierce and her mother's.
• The Cutie
• Does Not Like Spam: Just like her mother, Kate can't stand the taste of Brickolinis' pizza.
• First-Name Basis
• Florence Nightingale Effect: How she was conceived.
• Friendless Background: Kate never really had any close friends in her childhood. Even in the present she shows signs of social akwardness and discomfort speaking to others. It only got worse after the war.
• Heroic BSoD: Kate had one for a while but recovered enough to help in the final battle. However, the aftereffects of said Heroic BSOD include PTSD.
• Human Shield: Kate Bishop became Walter Breen's Human Shield as part of his Hostage Situation.
• I Just Want to Have Friends: As a child, Kate never really had any close friends aside from her mother. She still has trouble getting along with the rest of the team, although she has recently started to form a bond with Pierce.
• It Runs in the Family: Both Kate and Sarah Bishop are disgusted by the taste of Brickolini's pizza.
• Legacy Character: Kate Bishop is the granddaughter of Roy Bishop, a World War I pilot Atton Rand created as a major NPC character in TakunuvaC01's second Johnny Thunder RPG.
• The Load: Later in the RPG Kate really did not do much except cry and be a Designated Victim. She eventually got better, literally at the last minute.
• Naïve Newcomer
• Nervous Wreck
• New Meat
• Shell-Shocked Veteran: The horrors of war left Kate Bishop in a state where she must seek counseling and psychiatric sessions to help cope with her PTSD.
• Tender Tears: Kate shed a few after being locked in an office by Dr. Bishop and later after witnessing the accidental murder of a group of Dino Attack Agents disguised as XERRD personell.

Rookie Agent Bob "Scout" Rutherford

An Army Scout from Bricklynn with a Small Name, Big Ego, Bob Rutherford was assigned to Dino Attack Team's Second Headquarters Squad.

• Adaptation Name Change: Version 1.1 of the Director's Cut changes his codename to Recon.
• Army Scout: He went on reconnaissance missions with the military and Dino Attack Team.
• Badass Boast
  Scout: Dude, don't worry - we'll totally own those Hybrids! Oh, yeah! I'll be like a force o' nature against them!
• Brooklyn Rage: Well, at the very least, it's Bricklynn Rage.
• Deadpan Snarker: Always quick to make snarky comments about his enemies and teammates alike.
• Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: Even if he's embarrassed to show it in front of his teammates, Scout kept in touch with his mother during the war so he could let her know that he was doing fine.
• Expy: Of the Scout from Team Fortress 2.
• Fragile Speedster: Athletically, Scout is one of the fastest and most agile members of Dino Attack Team. When it comes to actual fighting, however, he's not so strong and has to rely on Hit-and-Run Tactics. Unlike other members of the Second Headquarters Squad, he couldn't even put up a fight in a one-on-one confrontation with The Mole, instead crying for help before being very quickly killed.
• Killed Offscreen: Nobody saw it because Soldier and Heavy were too busy arguing.
• Mauve Shirt: Scout was initially introduced as a Red Shirt, but was allowed to receive more growth and development than originally intended, promoting him to Mauve Shirt, of the "more likely to be Killed Off for Real" variety.
• Meaningful Name: He's an Army Scout.
• Motor Mouth: Talks a lot and talks very quickly.
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Babe Ruth.
• Punny Name: "Bob Rutherford" is a play on "Babe Ruth".
• Red Herring Mole: Scout made a very suspicious and shady phone call when he was alone, reporting on the Second Headquarters Squad's activities. Turns out he was just calling his mom.
• Remember the New Guy?: Rex recognized Scout from the LEGO Island mission, even though he was not introduced until after the mission ended.
• Small Name, Big Ego
• You Killed My Father: Scout was eager to get revenge on Soldier after he killed his father, Spy.

Rookie Agent Jason "Tracer" Helmutson

• Given Name Reveal: A very tragic example, wherein his name was revealed to be Jason Helmutson, thus confirming that Bartholomew Helmutson's son was dead and preventing a happy reunion.
• Heroic Sacrifice: Tracer allowed his entire Creative Spark to be used as Maelstrom antidote after having been fatally shot by Zelda Frodongan.
• Killed Off for Real
• Pragmatic Hero: Tracer was a realist agent who initially sided with Cam O'Cozy during the idealist/realist conflict, but had enough sense to realize that O'Cozy was going too far.
• Trigger-Happy

Dino Attack Personnel

Medicine

Dr. Alan Pierce

The head of the Dino Attack Team's medical department^note  His authority was never officially stated, but he seemed to take charge in the hospitals both on Adventurers' Island and in LEGO City during the final battle, though this could arguably be the result of him being among the first prominently shown doctors (he was preceeded by Frank Einstein, who still seemed a fairly minor character at the time, and agent Medic), a former doctor from LEGO City. Also Kate's biological father

• Audience Surrogate: Pierce's perspective on the issues at hand were often reflective of the players themselves.
• Ascended Extra: He first appeared as one of the doctors treating Zenna after she took some unpleasant injuries and Atton simply gave him and his partners a name to refer to other than "The Doctor" and "The other Doctor" (borrowing the names of Pierce and Honeycut from M*A*S*H). He then started accompanying Zenna after she'd recovered and went on to become the unofficial head of the team's medical department.
• Berserk Button: Not quite as extreme as his ex-girlfriend and later wife Sarah Bishop, but messing with Kate is a good way to get on his bad side.
• Breakout Character: Pierce went from being a random extra to becoming the face of all things medical in the RPG.
• Beware the Nice Ones: Rotor's decision to send Kate alone into the XERRD Fortress didn't exactly go over well with Pierce and Wade.
• Characterization Marches On: Pierce was originally considered as a love interest for Zenna before his backstory with Kate made Sarah Bishop into his love interest.
• Cloudcuckoolander's Minder: Pierce is the sane doctor who has to keep an eye on Enter, Return, and even Dr. Clickitt at times. Given what happens to his wife and daughter, Pierce probably finds himself in this role.
• Expy: Of Hawkeye Pierce.
• The Heart
• Ideal Hero
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Alan Pierce wears a labcoat, showing his status as a medical doctor.
• Luke, I Am Your Father: Was revealed to be Kate Bishop's father.
• Foil: Pierce's level-headed and professional attitude is a sharp contrast to the more outlandish depictions of Enter and Return.
• The Medic
• Named After Somebody Famous: After Alan Alda.
• Nice Guy
• Only Sane Man: After the war ended, with Kate severely traumatized and Sarah riddled with guilt, Pierce was really the only one in the family who could still somewhat function in society.
• Papa Wolf: Pierce might be a good-natured doctor whose main focus is on healing, but you lay one hand on Kate and you're in for a world of pain. For example, Pierce punched Rotor in the face just for sending Kate alone into an enemy fortress filled with toxic gas.
• Parental Substitute: Pierce managed to become a father figure towards Kate, growing particularly close as a result of her difficulties in meeting the team's expectations. This made for an especially painful moment when the camp on Adventurers' Island was overrun by mutant dinosaurs, and the tent was destroyed. Kate and Hertz both proved to be determined to recover a loved one from the ruins, and he noted how desperate she was to save Pierce. Ironically subverted when it turned out Pierce actually was her biological father.
• Wrong Genre Savvy: As shown by his attempt to sedate a recovering Holly Vinyaya in the Final Battle, Pierce clearly thought he was in a story where the plot runs on realistic outcomes, not realizing that Vinyaya could survive this story because she was wearing Plot Armor.

Dr. Nicholas Saran

A former police officer who pursued psychology after losing his leg, Saran is the primary psychiatrist within the team.

• Mentors

Dr. Richard Copper

• Cool Old Guy
• Expy: Of Copper.
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Richard Copper wears a labcoat, showing his status as a medical doctor.
• The Medic
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Richard Dysart.

Dr. Gates Crusher

• Hospital Hottie: Not neccessarily sexy or stripperific, but she isn't too bad looking for her profession.
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Gates Crusher wears a labcoat, showing her status as a medical doctor.
• The Medic
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Gates McFadden.
• Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?: Gates Crusher seems like a pretty strange name, made all the more bizarre by the fact that her first name was taken from a real-life actress.

Dr. Giovanni Wade

• Beware the Nice Ones: Rotor's decision to send Kate alone into the XERRD Fortress didn't exactly go over well with Pierce and Wade.
• Expy: Of Irwin Wade. Ironically, Wade himself resorted to performing a Mercy Kill on J.D. by way of morphine overdose after the latter had suffered a severe gunshot wound, not a whole lot different from what happened to his namesake
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Giovanni Ribisi.
• To Be Lawful or Good: Wade during the aftermath of J.D.'s assassination. One the one hand, he could try to stabilize him, possibly getting some useful information but only delaying his inevitable death and most likely causing him a lot pain. On the other, he could let him die quickly and with a minimum of pain, but realizes that killing him also goes against his own personal morals as well as being the opposite of what he as a medic is responsible for doing.

Dr. Noomi Shaw

A rather shy and mentally insecure semi-religious young doctor. While a capable surgeon, the stress of the war has reduced her into a panicked state of mind in which she desperately tries to find comfort in spirituality.

• Closest Thing We Got: When Pierce decided to marry Sarah Bishop, the closest thing they had to an actual minister was Shaw, a shy, semi-religious young doctor. Not exactly the best choice but it was either her or Pharisee.
• Expy Started off as an expy of Elizabeth Shaw before going in some very different directions.
• Foil: Shaw's insecure but compassionate nature is a sharp contrast to the much more vicious Pharisee. Both try to find meaning in religion but where Shaw uses it as a source of comfort in desperate times Pharisee uses it to justify acts of violence. Additionally Shaw is depicted as being incredibly unstable mentally, easily prone to mental breakdowns, also somewhat embarassed by her spirituality, often trying to keep it to herself- Pharisee is much more outspoken about his faith (though granted both are capable of doing their jobs- although Shaw manages to save a few lives while Pharisee's campaign gets several people killed and another man critically injured).
• The Fundamentalist: Averted. The religious aspects of her character were deliberately written to avoid falling into this.
• Good Shepherd
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Noomi Shaw wears a labcoat, showing her status as a medical doctor.
• The Medic: Despite being insecure and mentally unstable, Shaw is in fact a very capable surgeon, even if she feels the need to say a prayer while trying to contain internal bleeding.
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Noomi Rapace.
• Nice Guy: Shaw even tried to comfort Pharisee in the end, though whether she succeeded isn't clear.
• Prayer Is a Last Resort: Whenever she isn't saving someone's life she's usually desperately praying or trying to use faith as a means of comfort for others.
• Preacher Man: The second-closest person to being an actual preacher (after Pharisee). She wears a cross and tries to use her faith to provide comfort both for herself and for those around her. She even got to "marry" Pierce and Sarah Bishop eventually.
• Token Religious Teammate

Dr. Clickitt

From LEGO Island

The head doctor and surgeon from LEGO Island, Dr. Clickitt now works in the Dino Attack hospital wing, where he supervises the zany antics of Enter and Return.

• Cloudcuckoolander's Minder: He is personally responsible for supervising the operations of Enter and Return.
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Dr. Clickitt wears a labcoat, showing his status as a medical doctor.
• The Medic: Dr. Clickitt works in the Dino Attack hospital wing.
• Only One Name: He is only ever referred to by his surname, Clickitt.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Team Member in the Adaptation: Although Dr. Clickitt did not appear at all in any LEGO Dino Attack media, he works for the team in the RPG.
• Worst Aid: Played for laughs. While Clickitt himself is an okay doctor, the fact that he encourages Enter and Return's methods puts him in a low standing with other doctors. This was parodied briefly in the LEGO Island party when Shaw, trying to prove that she was a doctor, showed Clickitt her medical liscense, only for him to casually admit to have no idea what it is.

Enter & Return

From LEGO Island

Identical twin paramedics from LEGO Island infamous among medical circles for their questionable methods, most of which involve sharks, trees, or other absurd implements.

• Always Identical Twins: Visually, Enter and Return are identical, wearing the same clothes and having the same face. However, they do have distinct voices.
• Character Exaggeration: Especially in Atton Rand and imperial officer's posts, Enter and Return have been exaggerated to the point that the only jokes they are capable of are variations of their "stretcher, megaphone, shark, tree, umbrella, and mailbox" sketch. In some other peoples' posts, their humor extends a little farther (for example, in one of PeabodySam's posts, they were arguing about the color of their shirts), but for the most part, we only hear jokes about bringing a shark.
• Cloud Cuckoo Lander: Even by the standards of LEGO Island citizens, Enter and Return are notably crazy.
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Enter and Return wear labcoats, showing their status as paramedics.
• The Medic: Enter and Return are paramedics working in the hospital wing and on the battlefield.
• Only One Name: Enter and Return are both only ever referred to by their given names.
• Plucky Comic Relief: Enter and Return provide a lot of silly comedy to lighten the mood, which is helped by their undeniable enthusiasm and optimism.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Team Member in the Adaptation: Although Enter and Return did not appear at all in any LEGO Dino Attack media, they work for the team in the RPG.
• Those Two Guys: Enter and Return always stick together and form a comedic duo.
• Worst Aid: To the point where they are widely looked down upon from every other doctor on the planet except Dr. Clickitt and Dr. Go. Subverted in that their methods do work. Taken to the extreme during Enter and Return's operation on Hertz's hearing, during which we were only given the Noodle Implements:
  The process was something she could not describe, but it involved a megaphone, a pineapple, a DVD copy of The Hurt Locker, a basketball, two lumps of sugar, a steering wheel, a baseball bat, a film camera, a mailbox, a pine tree, a shrubbery, a herring, 16 tons of TNT, a frying pan, a model train, a bicycle wheel, a single dollar, a map of LEGO Island, a book on aeronautics, a toy car, a lunchbox, a suitcase, a spoonful of honey, a banana, a pointed stick, a fedora, running into each other and then arguing over whose clothes were whose, a sandwich, a copy of the complete works of H. P. Lovecraft, a bag of nitroglycerin, a rolled up magazine, a few raspberries, a chicken leg, a turkey dinner, another bush, a brick, a can of soda, a wafer-thin mint, a slip of paper, and a jolly roger.
• Wrong Genre Savvy: Enter and Return think that Dino Attack RPG is meant to be just as zany as LEGO Island when it actually is considerably more down-to-Earth, resulting in them constantly being dismissed by some of the RPG's more realistic doctors. Then again, considering that their methods still work even in Dino Attack RPG's more realistic setting, perhaps they're not as Wrong Genre Savvy as they appear.
• Your Answer to Everything: If there is any sort of problem, you can guarantee Enter and Return will try to find a way to implement sharks, trees, and umbrellas.

Nurse Naomi Carver

• The Bus Came Back: After the end of the war.
• The Ditz: Her character at first but eventually subverted. She turned out to be surprisingly competent and intelligent.
• Ditzy Genius: Naomi Carver was originally introduced as The Ditz, and indeed this was Hertz's first impression of her. Later, however, Hertz commented on Naomi's intelligence.
• Dropped a Bridge on Him: [[spoiler:In the Dino 2012 teaser.
• Hospital Hottie
• Killed Off for Real: In the Dino 2012 teaser.
• The Medic
• Put on a Bus: Near the end of the Final Battle, Naomi was safely teleported to Antarctica, which effectively removed her from the remainder of the battle.
• Sexy Soaked Shirt: Naomi has a sexy soaked scrubs scene when she steps under the hole in the roof into the waterfall of rain above the teleportation pad.
• Sudden Sequel Death Syndrome: After everything that went on with her and Hertz in Dino Attack RPG, she didn't even get through the teaser for Dino 2012.

Dr. John Michael "J.D." Dorian

• Killed Off for Real
• The Medic
• Mercy Kill: His ultimate fate to being fatally wounded and overdosed on morphine... ironically by Dr. Wade.
• Personal Effects Reveal: Pierce and Wade went through J.D.'s few belongings after he died, although mainly with the intention to find any trace of his research, and Wade found several letters from J.D. which he hopes to send eventually.
• Sacrificial Lamb: He was killed off shortly after being introduced.
• Shoot the Medic First: Stromling Zachary made an explicit point of killing J.D., though it wasn't so much because he was a medic as it was because he was worried about him finding a cure to the Maelstrom.

Doctor Naomi Hale

• The Stoic
• The Medic

Science Department

Dr. Frank Einstein / "Wallace Bishop"

A brilliant and world-renowned scientist who was hired by Dino Attack Team to study the Mutant Dinos. He has also adopted the identity of "Wallace Bishop", and works as The Mole for Dino Attack Team, infiltrating XERRD as a Deep Cover Agent.

• Ascended Extra: Einstein was originally introduced as just a generic doctor working in the hospital wing.
• Characterization Marches On: According to PeabodySam, Frank Einstein was originally envisioned as a Mad Scientist. While he obviously remained a scientist, the "mad" aspect was quickly dropped as his character was developed.
• Chekhov's Gunman: Started off as a seemingly-random extra, ascended to an ultimate Deep Cover Agent.
• Cool Old Guy: Frank Einstein is in his late seventies.
• Dead Man Writing: One of Frank Einstein's messages, informing Rex of his fatal Maelstrom poisoning, was recorded specifically just in case he could not be alive to tell Rex in person.
• Deep Cover Agent: As Wallace Bishop, Frank Einstein was second-in-command of XERRD.
• Heroic Sacrifice: Frank Einstein sacrificed his life so that his Creative Spark could empower the Imagination orb and defeat the Darkitect.
• Einstein Hair: What did you expect from someone named "Einstein"?
• Expy Coexistence: Frank Einstein is clearly modeled after Albert Einstein, who does exist in this canon. Bartholomew Enderson even mistakenly believes Wallace Bishop's babble to be referring to Albert rather than Frank.
• The Glasses Come Off: Inverted; Frank Einstein's Wham Line came as the result of him putting on the glasses.
• Good All Along: It comes as no surprise that Frank Einstein is a good guy. However, the surprise was when the villainous Wallace Bishop turned out to be Frank Einstein in disguise.
• Herr Doktor: Frank Einstein is a German scientist.
• Informed Judaism: PeabodySam says that Frank Einstein is Jewish, although this is never brought up in the RPG. Given his namesake, this shouldn't be too much of a surprise.
• Killed Offscreen: He was already very weak when he asked Kate to extract his Creative Spark, but still alive. The next time we see them, his Creative Spark has already been extracted, and Einstein is dead.
• Labcoat of Science and Medicine: Frank Einstein wears a labcoat, showing his status as a scientist.
• Leitmotif: In the Complete Soundtrack playlist, Einstein's theme is "The Equation" from Fringe.
• Master Actor: He pulled off a very convincing Wallace Bishop impersonation for years without ever being suspected.
• Master of Disguise: The ability to make himself look like a completely different person just by shaving his mustache, combing his hair, and putting on glasses certainly helped his disguise.
• Meaningful Name: He's a brilliant scientist.
• Mentor Occupational Hazard
• Minor Major Character: Discounting the Expanded Universe, Frank Einstein only appears in person in a grand total of two scenes. At least, while appearing as himself.
• The Mole: Before the Dino Attack, he used to keep tabs on XERRD, keeping Nexus Force informed on their activities. During the Dino Attack, Specs allowed him to continue keeping tabs on XERRD, this time working directly for Dino Attack Team.
• Mr. Exposition: In Rex's Awakening, he delivers exposition to Rex (and therefore, the reader) about the Dino Attack.
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Albert Einstein.
• Obi-Wan Moment: As he knew he wouldn't survive the Maelstrom Temple battle, he gave important advice to Kate Bishop and then calmly died with dignity.
• The Professor
• Small Role, Big Impact: Frank Einstein only appeared in a handful of posts over the course of the RPG. Despite this, he plays a huge role in the Dino Attack. He created Pterisa, who played a major role in the Maelstrom Temple battle. It was also Einstien's Creative Spark that cleansed the temple and banished the Maelstrom. Most importantly, Frank Einstein sabotaged Dr. Rex's plans to infiltrate Dino Attack Team and is therefore responsible for everything that Rex has done in the RPG.
• So Proud of You: Frank Einstein to Kate Bishop, to motivate her and give her confidence to stop the Darkitect.

Dr. Joel Fuchs

A biologist specializing in diseases who has been stationed at Outpost 4. He played a vital role in the discovery of a cure to the Maelstrom.

• Closest Thing We Got: Garry's rationale for ordering Fuchs to help in the emergency room.
• Expy: Of the character of the same name from The Thing (1982).
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Joel Polis.
• Not That Kind of Doctor: Fuchs was ordered to work in the operating room despite technically being a biologist. Somewhat justified as Garry was simply trying to get the doctors as much help as possible, and Fuchs was the only other person around with a PH.D.
  • In a subversion, however, Fuchs never actually performed any surgery himself; the closest he got was vivisecting a then-Stromling Zelda (and even then the only reason it was a vivisection rather than a dissection was because she'd be hard to kill without the Maelstrom healing her).
• The Professor

Other

Mama & Papa Brickolini

From LEGO Island

Mama and Papa Brickolini are two world-famous pizzeria chefs from LEGO Island who were hired by Dino Attack Team to work in the mess hall.

• Adaptational Dumbass: In LEGO Island 2, the Brickolinis clearly know not to deliver hot spicy pizzas to the Brickster, especially after he escaped jail by using one in the first game. But in the non-canon scene from At War's End, the Brickolinis are portrayed as idiots who never notice the correlation between delivering super-spicy-tongue-melting-jail-cell-door-opening-hot pizzas to the jail and the Brickster's subsequent escapes from jail. This was one of the reasons why the scene proved controversial with LEGO Island fans and had to be declared non-canonical.
• Adaptational Intelligence: Compared to their Adaptational Dumbass portrayal in At War's End, the Director's Cut restores the Brickolinis' intelligence (making them Truer to the Text relative to the original LEGO Island games). When Sarah Pierce accuses the Brickolinis of incompetently aiding and abetting the Brickster, Mama Brickolini tries to explain to Sarah that they're well aware of the Brickster escaping jail using pizza and therefore are smart enough to only deliver cold non-spicy pizzas to the jail these days.
• Character Exaggeration: In the non-canon scene where Papa Brickolini was arrested by the Nick Brick, the Brickolinis were exaggerated heavily. In the original games, the Brickolinis spoke with a light Italian accent and accidentally freed the Brickster twice (and the second time, they were smart enough to try to prevent it from happening again). In this scene, the Brickolinis' Italian accents were exaggerated, and the two chefs were depicted as completely oblivious as they incompetently freed the Brickster again and again over the years by constantly sending super-spicy pizzas to the jail, even after what happened the first two times.
• Just a Stupid Accent: They speak with stereotypical Italian accents, especially exaggerated as a result of Atton Rand's Character Exaggeration.
• Saved by Canon: Could not be killed for this reason.
• Supreme Chef: They were hired by Dino Attack Team with good reason. Everyone considers the Brickolinis' pizza to be the greatest food they've ever tasted. Unless your last name is Bishop.
• Team Member in the Adaptation: Although the Brickolinis did not appear at all in any LEGO Dino Attack media, they work for the team in the RPG.

Elizabeth Wilma

The primary secretary of the Dino Attack Team.

• Bus Crash: Zachary and Minerva sent her off-screen to be safely evacuated to Antarctica... but she never made it there, because the next time we see her on-screen, she has been found dead in Dino Attack Headquarters after the explosions caused by Firecracker.
• Killed Off for Real: Although Brikman McStudz went out of his way in an effort to ensure her safety during the final battle, she was killed shortly afterward in a post by that guy from that show.
• Named After Somebody Famous: Named after Betty Williams.
