Fighters

    Welltaro 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_welltaro.png
(Content Spotlight)

Welltaro is a curious individual who must explore a deep, hazardous well, equipped with the perfect tools for the job: a pair of gunboots that he can use control his decent and dispatch enemies in one go. Through the use of various ammo modules and styles, Welltaro can approach his increasingly perilous decent in a multitude of ways.

In Fraymakers, Welltaro's gunboots give him a play-style geared towards racking up damage and spiking opponents. True to his source material, Welltaro has a limited amount of ammo once he leaves the ground; scoring hits recharges his gunboots one by one, and landing recharges them fully. Certain shots consume multiple charges, so going for offstage glory can be a big risk.

Welltaro is also an assist; when summoned, he'll jump and fire a wide downward shot from his gunboots, serving as a reliable combo extender. He costs 50%.
  • Armed Legs: His central gimmick is the use of his "gunboots" to fight.
  • Balloonacy: He neutral-special activates a Heart Balloon, making him floatier.
  • Extremity Extremist: Welltaro kicks for the majority of his moves, given the power afforded by his gunboots. His forward- and up-tilts in particular have him using Handstand Style to accomplish this. The main exception so far is him using Arm-Flail Style for his neutral combo.
  • Blush Stickers: Gains a pair for a split second when using the heart balloon.
  • Long-Range Fighter: A variant: Welltaro is the main roster's premier projectile user, but rather than shooting them horizontally, most of his attacks launch them vertically. As a result, a lot of his gameplan involves staying away from opponents, while still being either above or below them.
  • Recoil Boost: Much like his home game, shots from Welltaro's gunboots can briefly stall him from falling in the air.
  • Rocket Jump: his up-special.
  • Rolling Attack: His dash attack uses Boulder Style to roll up and knock opponents over.
  • Shockwave Stomp: His down-strong attack has stomp the ground, setting off explosions on either side based off of the Gunpowder Blocks.
  • Wave-Motion Gun: His down-special.

    Orcane 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_orcane.png
(Content Spotlight)

Orcane is a water-elemental trickster and thief, using his puddle-jumping skills to slip in-and-out of the miserly Water Trading Company to steal goods for its many underpaid workers. So good is he that the Water Merchants end up secretly hiring him to investigate a theft from the Air Armada.

In Fraymakers, Orcane carries over his kit from Rivals of Aether, with the addition of universal mechanics such as throws, ledge grabbing, and airdashing. His game-plan focuses on conjuring puddles that he can use for teleporting, boosting his strong attacks, or evaporating for direct offense.

Orcane is also an assist; when summoned, he'll leap back and fire a mighty stream of bubbles. He costs 50%.

See also Characters.Rivals Of Aether for further information
  • Bubble Gun: His forward air and down special fire a multi-hitting bubble jet.
  • Home Stage: His is the Merchant Port the regularly robs from.
  • Making a Splash: As in his home game, Orcane utilizes water powers in a number of tricky ways.
  • Mythology Gag: Their entire moveset is straight up replicating their kit from Rivals of Aether, with the sole changes being ledge mechanics, grabs, throws, and getup attacks, which no Rivals character had in the original game.
  • Portal Pool: He's capable of placing puddles of water and teleporting to them with his up special.
  • Water Is Blue: A water-based fighter who's colored deep blue.

    Ultra Fishbunjin 3000 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_ultra_fishbunjin_3000.png
(Content Spotlight)

Fishbuns are normally the most basic, nonthreatening enemies encountered in the Ittle Dew series... except for one. Through an intense regimen of push-ups, sit-ups, and plenty of juice, this particular specimen boasts a hulking frame, and can swing barebells and tank hits with ease. Since then, Ultra Fishbunjin 3000 has become something of a Breakout Character, since a weightlifting platypus leaves quite the impression.

In Fraymakers, Ultra Fishbunjin 3000 reprises his role from Slap City as the archetypal "tank", being the heaviest fighter in the game. He hits hard and can build some serious momentum, but remains highly susceptible to combos if he isn't careful.

    The Watcher 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_the_watcher.png
(Content Spotlight)

Four outcasts, each for their own reasons, have made it their mission to ascend an ominous, monster-laden Spire and destroy the Corrupt Heart within. One such outcast is the Watcher, a blind ascetic who seeks to "evaluate" the Spire on behalf of her peer, who mysteriously disappeared. Her fighting style revolves around her divine stances, specifically by switching between Calm and Wrath until she can achieve Divinity.

In Fraymakers, the Watcher brings her Stance System in the battle. Her down special switches between Calm, which increases jump height, and Wrath, which increases speed and damage (both dealt and taken). Landing a hit grants her a Mantra, and gaining five each stance with activate Divinity, which combines the positives of both stance, as well as the ability to cancel her moves into one another.

See also Characters.Slay The Spire for further information
  • Home Stage: Her's is the eponymous Spire that her home game centers upon.
  • The Smurfette Principle: The only female among the playable fighters so far.
  • Stance System: She can switch between her Jack of All Stats "Calm" stance and a Glass Cannon "Wrath" stance at will. Collecting five mantras in each stance will unlock her Lightning Bruiser "Divinity" stance. Her neutral-special also changes with each stance, being the healing "Like Water" when Calm, the multi-hitting "Reach Heaven" in Wrath, and the highly powerful "Conclude" when in Divinity.

    Octodad 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_octodad.png
(Content Spotlight)

Octodad is nothing more than your average everyday devoted husband and stay-at-home Family Man. He also happens to be an octopus, much to the surprise of almost everyone who knows him. Even though his skills are in the house and not the battlefield, he's able to pack a punch with his stretchy limbs.

In Fraymakers, Octodad is a tricky fighter with long, flexible arms and legs (strangely reminiscent of octopus tentacles, huh) to strike at long range and unique angles. His moves require careful precision to pull off, or he'll be wide open for counterattack.

See also Characters.Octodad for further information
  • Adaptational Badass: His home game contains little-to-no combat, seeing as he's just a father of two. Here, he can throw down with seasoned adventurers, athletes, and the like.
  • Badass in a Nice Suit: Wears a dapper blue suit by default.
  • Banana Peel: His dash attack is to slip on a discarded peel, of which were conspicuously omnipresent in his home game.
  • Combat Tentacles: Throws punches, chops, and kicks with his tentacle limbs.
  • Fighting Clown: He has an insanely goofy way of fighting; most of his attacks more closely resemble aggressively flailing in the direction of his opponents more than they do actual attacks.
  • Home Stage: His is the Backyard where usually does his daily chores.
  • Instant Flight: Just Add Spinning!: His neutral special — which is spinning his tentacles like a helicopter — helps him get a little extra height when recovering.
  • Killer Bear Hug: His side-special is a command grab in which he catches the opponent in a tight hug. The "Killer" part appears to be unintentional, though.
  • Long Range Combatant: His stretchy limbs give his moves incredible reach. His down tilt, for example, has range longer than he is tall. As a tradeoff, said moves tend to have a fair bit of windup that shorter-range characters can exploit.
  • Palette Swap: He has three based on his wife and kids, and even one based on Chef Fujimoto.
  • Spin Attack: His down-strong.

    Commander Video 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_commandervideo.png
(Content Spotlight)

The mind screwy psychedelic beats of BIT.TRIP discreetly chronicles the life of CommanderVideo, an alien athlete of unknown origin. Throughout his journey, CV discovers such concepts as life, ego, kindness, friendship, enmity, and reflection as he runs, jumps, slides, and kicks to the ongoing rhythm.

In Fraymakers, CommanderVideo boasts a fast and aggressive rush-down game-plan focused on maintaining momentum. His appearance comes from the RUNNER sub-series, while his move-set sprinkles in homages from across the entire series, even quickly morphing him into the control objects from earlier games.

CommanderVideo is also an assist; when summoned, he'll become the paddle from BIT.TRIP BEAT and deflect any projectiles in front of the summoner. He costs 100%.
  • Art Evolution: As shown off in this update, several of CV's animations were touched up to look more likely.
  • Attack Reflector: His down-special and assist move see him turn into a paddle that can deflect any projectile.
  • Close-Range Combatant: His fighting style is based around getting right in your opponent's face and staying there until they get knocked out.
  • Dance Battler: He performs a freeze for his up-tilt.
  • Everything's Better with Rainbows: His signature rainbow trail appears whenever he lands a hit, and disappears when he takes one. When it's out, his airdash gains a hitbox.
  • Eye Beams: He fires a blue laser blast (homaging BIT.TRIP FATE) from his visor for several of his stronger moves.
  • Home Stage: Stratostar, the first level of Welkin Wonderland, in turn the first world of Runner2.
  • Three-Strike Combo: His standard attack consists of two punches into a headbutt.
  • Video Game Sliding: He uses his Slide from the RUNNER series for his down-tilt and side-special. The former is animated in homage to the earlier titles, while the latter comes from his later titles and serves as the cornerstone of his combo game.

Assists

Assist characters are the central mechanic of Fraymakers. They function similarly to assists seen in more traditonal fighting games, being summoned at the press of a button once their meter is full, and perform a single move that suits their more competitive functionality. They are organized by the amount of damage one must deal to fill their meter, and assists that are also available as fighters shall not be repeated here.

(Content Spotlight)

    The Kid 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_iwbtgkid_cutin.png
(Content Spotlight)

Equipped with only the Very Small Gun and the Cape of Heroes, a 15-year-old kid known simply as "The Kid" sets out of a quest to become "The Guy". Unfortunately, he's a One-Hit-Point Wonder facing one of the most sadistically, unfairly, inhumanly, over-the-top Platform Hellscapes known to gaming.

When summoned, The Kid runs forward beneath a slow-falling Delicious Fruit. As harmless as it appears, it's quite likely the most devastating hurtbox in all of Fraymakers.
  • Art Evolution: He has a higher pixel-count and more-detailed appearance here.
  • Powerful, but Inaccurate: It's rare that the Delicious Fuit will actually hit, but its mere presence makes for a potent stage controller in the hands of skilled players.

    Crewmate/Impostor 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_amonguscrew_cutin.png


Whether it's a spaceship, a high-rise office, an isolated research facility, or a criminal empire's airship, somebody's gotta keep things running, and that job falls upon the Crewmates, adorable little bean-like beings that do whatever tasks they've been assigned. It's a perilous job, however, as one or more of their number are secretly Impostors, aliens that merely look like Crewmates with the aim of killing them off one by one until they're the only ones left, forcing the Crewmates to always watch their back and deduce who the Impostors are... Among Us.

Crewmate and Impostor are two assists in one. When the assist button is pressed once, Crewmate is summoned, and after a short animation of them fixing a damaged wire, all players within range of Crewmate (designated by a two-toned circle surrounding it) are buffed for a short time. When the assist button is double-tapped, Impostor is summoned instead, though opponents won't know that right away due to its animation being identical to Crewmate's up till the very end, and if they're within range of Impostor when its animation does end, they're stunned and launched diagonally upwards by a stab of Impostor's sharp tongue.
  • Air Vent Escape: If Impostor is summoned, they leave the stage by hopping into the floor panel they opened, which becomes a vent.
  • Ambiguously Human: Crewmates in Among Us are canonically incredibly short and light-weighted, and their bean-like spacesuits are apparently their actual bodies.
  • Bizarre Alien Biology: Impostors are aliens that resemble Crewmates, and can split their torso in two, revealing a mouth filled with pointy teeth and a long, sharp tongue that they can use to kill their victims, which acts as their method of attack in Fraymakers.
  • Confusion Fu: Referencing the Social Deduction Gameplay of Among Us, the Crewmate and Impostor look identical right until the last moment; the Crewmate gives a buff to players in their radius, while the Impostor strikes them with a powerful blow. In those few seconds they're fixing the wires in the vent, opponents will need to decide which one they are and plan accordingly.
  • Twinkle in the Eye: The Impostor gets a red spark in their visor right before dealing a tongue strike to whoever's in their radius.
  • Scare Chord: One plays when Impostor's attack goes off, taken directly from Among Us.

  • Poisoned Weapons: Her dagger, natch.

    Diogenes 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fraymakers_diogenes_cutin.png
