Voiced by: K. William Scott
The main protagonist in pretty much almost every GameToons video ever (as in on just the main channel, this does not include the subchannels). He's a casual gamer who tries out various - often popular - games and points out the various leaps of logic and absurdities that show up in each world. His appearance varies from game to game, but his trademark is a red beanie that first appears on his Among Us character.
  • Aborted Arc: Various episodes in Among Us Logic heavily imply his constant failures are driving him insane, culminating in him having what seems to be a full-on mental breakdown after reaching his Rage Breaking Point in "Hacking Security Cams", only for him to revert back to normal in the next episode and his Sanity Slippage be ignored.
  • Achilles' Heel: Player is really good at rapping in the world of Friday Night Funkin', beating out opponents such as Matt or Sonic.EXE. Even when he loses the first time against an opponent (Selever, for example), he'll often bounce back and defeat them later in the episode. However, he lost to Mickey in the creepypasta episode and never recovered due to the fact that he lost his microphone.
  • Adaptational Badass: In FNFL. Compared to Player's Among Us counterpart, who tends to be quite the loser who fails pretty much no matter what, this iteration of Player is able to not only score some wins, but even managed to beat Matt, the opponent of one of the hardest mods for FNF (at least of the time of making the video).
  • Adaptational Jerkass: In most of the Logics, where he is shown to be more of a Jerkass.
  • Adaptation Personality Change: His attitude changes in each short or series. One time, he's a Jerk with a Heart of Gold, and in another, he's a Nice Guy.
  • Adaptation Species Change: Due to the fact that his form changes between games, he can end up turning into things other than a human. A worm, a bean-shaped creature with a single bone, a toy mannequin, a pixelated cat, an ant, you name it.
  • A Dog Named "Dog": A player named "Player".
  • Aesop Amnesia: Zigzagged. Player often makes mistakes like accusing people he personally doesn't like and repeatedly does so no matter how many times it leads to him losing; however, he tends to learn from other mistakes and losses, though he continuously loses anyway.
  • Affably Evil: Whenever he's the Impostor, he keeps his friendliness and naïveté.
  • Ambiguous Situation: Whether he’s started talking to hallucinations or not.
  • Ax-Crazy: By AUL 12, he harbors the desire to murder everyone in the lobby, and gleefully fantasizes about slowly murdering Captain.
  • Bad Liar: When he's an Impostor, his attempts at debates usually make him more suspicious than if he had kept quiet. As shown in AUL 8, he's too eager to agree with the arguments of the other Impostor, outing them both.
  • Big "NO!": After being imprisoned in the Cheater's Lobby.
After Wizard gets killed by Arnold Impostornator in Among Us Logic, But The Impostor Works Out.After he finds out in The Last Crewmate that The Gentleman is his father.
  • Bond One-Liner: Right before he kills No-Visor, he gives a particularly badass one.
    Player: No-Visor... I win.
  • Book Dumb: Apparently, he can't do basic math. He also can't do geography either, as he mistook the non-binary pride flag for a country flag.
  • Butt-Monkey: In AUL and FNFL. For example, in AUL, he constantly loses every single game.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Player is generally friendly and laid back, but he can be downright ruthless whenever he's the Impostor, nearly winning both times before failing in AUL.
  • Can't Get Away with Nuthin': Apparently, everyone else in the lobby can cheat, but if Player does it, then he'll be sent to the Cheater's Lobby forever. It gets subverted when Mr. Cheese is belatedly sent to the lobby for the stunt he pulled with the bots a few episodes prior.
  • Catchphrase: He says the phrase "Oh, come on!" in episodes such as AUL 8 and Henry Stickmin Logic.
  • Character Development: His failures gradually wear on him and he starts making far rasher and more impulsive decisions, focusing single-mindedly on achieving victory to the point it usually results in him losing. Eventually, he resorts to cheating, but after being trapped in the Cheater's Lobby, he realizes his friends ultimately mean more to him than winning, though he still decides to continue trying to win. However, after that, he's shown to be slightly more cunning and reasonable, but more cynical and bitter.
  • Cheaters Never Prosper: Episode 13 sees him so desperate for victory that he doesn’t care if the Crewmates win by Not-Orange and Monster cheating to bring Mother Back from the Dead. At the end of the round, he finds himself in the Cheater’s Lobby.
  • Chick Magnet: Ends up becoming this in "BOYFRIEND GETS A FAN CLUB?! Friday Night Funkin' Logic" despite already having a girlfriend. Unfortunately, he ends up getting the wrong attention from the wrong sources.
  • The Chosen One: "The Revenge of No-Visor" reveals he's the only one who can stop No-Visor and banish him from the game. It turns out to be a darker variant in "The Curse of No-Visor", as No-Visor intends to use him as his next vessel, which also means he's the only one who can kill the demon.
  • Cosmic Plaything: His constant failures are actually a result of No-Visor, who has been making him constantly fail since childhood to make him easier to possess.
  • Disney Villain Death: A rare non-villainous example. Player ends up falling down from Mira HQ alongside the Green Impostor. Both of which hit the ground and die after finishing "Ejected".
  • Deadpan Snarker: In AUL and FNFL. He makes snide remarks back to people most of the time.
  • Death Is a Slap on the Wrist: If Player gets killed/blueballed, he’ll just respawn. Averted in "BOYFRIEND vs. IMPOSTOR: REMATCH! Friday Night Funkin' Logic", where Player dies in the wrong game, and is forced to haunt the defeat screen for all eternity along with Black Impostor. Though this didn't stick. Also averted in "Boyfriend Died and Became a Ghost?!", in which he dies from getting shot by Pico and gets sent to the afterlife, only coming back to life after besting the gatekeepr and rushing back through the portal. He’s killed once again in the Friday Night Funkin' Lullaby episode, but is revived.
  • Decoy Protagonist: Episode 7 has him take a backseat to Blue.
  • Depending on the Artist: Player's appearnce changes from game to game, but the forms that closely relate to his true appearance does tend to change. His trademark beanie also changes between forms; sometimes it does have some detail, sometimes it doesn't.
  • Depending on the Writer: Scott definitely can't decide on a concrete personality for this guy. Player's personality not only varies between episodes of Among Us Logic, but this happens to be the case of other works too. He may be a Nice Guy or a bitter Only Sane Man in one work, and then be a Jerk with a Heart of Gold in another.
  • Determinator: He refuses to give up on his quest to win a game of Among Us, or to win in general.
  • Devoured by the Horde: He's torn apart by the zombies at the end of AUL 15.
  • The Dog Bites Back:
    • As the Impostor, he murders Greaser for annoying him in AUL 4.
    • After getting a mod that grants him godlike power in "The God Impostor", he immediately starts killing everyone.
  • Dimensional Traveler: Can enter different game worlds.
  • Drunk with Power:
    • A Running Gag in Game Toons Gaming is him going mad with whatever powers the mod of the episode grants him.
    • In the series itself, he completely loses it after getting granted a mod that grants him godlike powers in "The God Impostor".
  • Everyone Has Standards:
    • As much as he wants to win, he is critical of The Gentleman (His co-impostor "Airship Arrival") killing B-Day in front of Rose, as they were just having a moment. He isn't happy about silencing a distraught Rose either.
    • The one crewmate he is generally hesitant to kill is Mother. This is especially notable in "The King Imposter", where she overhears him talking about "murdering his friends". Instead of killing her on the spot, he talks her into leaving the game.
    • In Slither.io Logic, he is disturbed by the fact that the glowing pellets are the remains of dead snakes. As such, we never see him eat any pellets in the video.
  • False Friend: A unique case with Captain. Player makes no bones about how much he despises Captain, who considers Player his best friend, and occasionally takes advantage of it. However, Player made it bluntly clear to Captain that they weren't friends multiple times before realizing he wasn't getting through to him, and the reason for his dislike of Captain is because he is absurdly clingy and possessive and constantly harasses Player's actual best friend Veteran. That being said, later episodes dialed this down, instead having Player start to actually consider Captain to be his friend, even if he's still annoyed by the latter's ditziness and ego. The best examples of this are Henry Stickmin Logic and Roblox Logic, where the two team up and work together. In Pico Park Logic, Player even invited him personally.
  • Fatal Flaw:
    • Gullibility. He tends to be easily tricked into suspecting the wrong person or trusting the Impostor. Of course, even if he does catch on, he'll still lose.
    • Impatience is a consistent trait, and it bites him in the ass a number of times. The biggest example is when he doesn't stick around to hear the end of the three-headed sloth god's sentence in "The God Impostor" and assumes that he's the impostor, when in fact he's a crewmate, and actually earns his loss for once by killing his fellow crewmates with his new powers. Oops.
  • Fate Worse than Death:
    • He gets trapped in the Cheater's Lobby in AUL 13, though he gets out by apologizing to Innersloth a few episodes later.
    • He and Veteran are dragged off by No-Visor to be turned into faceless ghosts at the end of "The Legend of No-Visor", though it's later revealed they were "only" trapped inside the game. It's later revealed that No-Visor actually intends to pull a Grand Theft Me on Player.
  • Flanderization: The series has started playing up his status as a No-Respect Guy. At first, Player, while losing at every game, is still regarded as a competent player and pretty well-liked, and the only times he's bluntly mocked for being a loser are by Bro and Mr. Cheese, which are regarded by everyone else as dick moves. However, by "The King Impostor", the only person who actually seems to like him is Captain, and everyone bluntly calls him a loser and the worst player ever to his face repeatedly and gleefully tell him that they're either sick of him or have grown to enjoy watching him fail.
  • Foil: To Mr. Cheese.
  • Freak Out: He completely loses it in "Fat Impostor", going into a huge rant on the Denser and Wackier turn the series has made and how his victory is constantly snatched away from him by something completely random that someone or other has planned.
  • Friendly Enemy: With the Gentleman and later Mr. Cheese.
  • The Friend No One Likes: Gradually becomes this over the course of the series. Pretty much everyone except Captain bluntly calls him a loser to his face, and admit to finding his constant failure amusing at best.
  • Heel–Face Revolving Door: Player goes from a Nice Guy to an unscrupulous cheater, and then back again.
  • Heroic BSoD: At the end of "Hacking Security Cams", after seeing that he's become The Friend Nobody Likes, that Dum won on her very first game, Captain helped her do it, and that they are now in a relationship results in him having a mental breakdown and becoming eerily silent while twitching uncontrollably.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: He chooses to stay behind and hold No-Visor off in "No-Visor: The Final Chapter" so Captain and Ninja can escape.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Veteran, though this lessens in later episodes.
  • Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: Played with. Player's hang ups about losing, constant failures, and friendly attitude make him come off as this whenever he's the Impostor, but he's anything but ineffectual... most of the time.
  • Informed Flaw: Word of God is that he constantly fails because he's a noob. However, in the series itself, it mainly comes across that he usually fails because he's Surrounded by Idiots.
  • Innocently Insensitive: While he legitimately despises Captain, Player is too nervous to actually admit this and generally goes along with it. However, several times he inadvertently lets the mask slip and makes comments expressing his hatred.
  • Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Veteran.
  • Image Song:
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: In AUL and FNFL. He may seem pretty cold-hearted, but he still cares for the people around him.
  • Jerkass to One: Player's normally a Nice Guy, but he can be a complete and utter asshole to Captain. Justified, since Captain gives Player plenty of reason to dislike him, being annoyingly clingy and highly possessive.
  • The Jinx: He's either this or The Load depending on his competency or luck in the episode. No matter how competent his teammates are, they are fated to lose with him due to a mistake he made, bad luck, or his opponents cheating.
  • Mysterious Past: All we know of Player's life outside the game worlds and his past are "he has both parents and a sister, he does have a real name, he was chubby as a kid, he takes karate classes, and he used to be haunted by a demonic entity who wants to make him feel weak so he could posses him later".
  • Near-Villain Victory: Happens all the time when he's the Impostor. The biggest examples are "Among Us Logic 2" and "The King Impostor", where he comes within a hair's breadth of winning before a game-breaking scenario screws him over.
  • Nice Guy: Generally friendly and laid back. This lessens in later episodes, where his constant suffering results in him becoming something of a bitter Jerkass. Although, he becomes more nicer in newer Logics, actually having a Jerkass Realization AUL and FNFL. He even reconciled with Veteran and Captain and is actually treating them nicer, caring about their well-being. He especially becomes more kinder in Poppy Playtime Logic.
  • No Full Name Given: In "ORIGIN of AMANDA the ADVENTURER", his last name is revealed to be "Schmidt", but not his first name.
  • No-Respect Guy: Downplayed. The other players do like him... it’s just that they always ignore him, and he always gets killed no matter what he does. It gets exaggerated more in later episodes, where literally everyone bluntly tells him to his face that he's a loser and generally regard him as being slightly more valuable than garbage.
  • Not-So-Harmless Villain: Player always fails whenever he's the Impostor, but he's also legitimately cunning and has nearly won on countless occasions; in fact, he usually manages to kill almost everyone. Tellingly, Engineer and Gnome are legitimately terrified he'll actually kill them when he corners them in "Fat Impostor".
  • Objectshifting: In Poppy Playtime Logic, he became a yellow toy mannequin in the third episode and remained that way ever since.
  • Offing the Annoyance: Whenever he's the Impostor, he's prone to murdering anyone who annoys him. Notable instances of this include blowing Greaser's brains out and snapping Captain's neck in the middle of his friendship song.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: While he is mostly referred to as Player, he does have a real name. Even though a reveal was attempted and quickly failed in the first Among Us Logic, his first name is yet to be revealed.
  • Only Sane Man: In AUL and FNFL. He is one of the most sanest characters in all of GameToons' logics.
  • Out of Focus: Rainbow Friends Logic, GameToons' current flagship series, and the occasionally run Garten of Banban Logic focus a lot more on the monsters if anything, to the point where Player never appears outside of crossover episodes.
  • Pre-Asskicking One-Liner:
    • Happens in "But the Impostor Changes Colors"
    Player: Well I… think I… win…
  • Red Is Heroic: He's the main protagonist wearing a red beanie as his trademark.
  • Running Gag: Him constantly losing a game in AUL.
  • Sanity Slippage: His constant failures result in him getting gradually worn-down and becoming more impulsive and obsessive. By episode 7 he's started joining in on the insanity of the rest of the lobby and a few episodes show his desire to win has started to give way to just wanting to murder everyone in the lobby, especially Captain. He snaps completely in "Spying on Mr. Cheese" when his sister not only wins at the game the first time she plays, but hooks up with Captain too, though he's gotten better by the next episode... only for him to start to lose it again in "Revenge of No-Visor" after being stalked and repeatedly attacked by No-Visor and seeing the ghosts of his friends.
  • Signature Headgear: His beanie is his trademark, as Lampshaded in an episode of Friday Night Funkin' Logic. While this does not account for all of his forms, most of them are just the protagonist of whatever game he's in with the beanie tacked on.
    Player (as Boyfriend): "I prefer the red beanie. It's sorta my shtick."
  • Spared by the Adaptation: In Friday Night Funkin' Lullaby, Boyfriend is likely killed by Hypno. While Player (who fulfills Boyfriend's role in FNF Logic) does die at Hypno's hands at the start of Hypno's episode, meanwhile, he was eventually revived.
  • Straight Man and Wise Guy: The Straight Man to Veteran's Wise Guy.
  • Those Two Guys: With Veteran.
  • Throw the Dog a Bone:
    • At the end of episode 14, he's able to escape the Cheater's Lounge by apologizing to Innersloth.
    • Though non-canon, he does win as the imposter in Game Toons Gaming.
    • In the "Secret Room" episode of "Game Toons Gaming", The Gentleman invites him into said room after spending the game trying to keep him out.
    • While everyone makes fun of his inability to win, Captain points out that he at least tries to win, and The Gentleman acknowledges that he is capable of it. Both of these happen in different episodes.
    • After prior episodes have had Player deal with the immense stupidity of his fellow players, the "Impostor School" episode sees Stoner, Poopyfarts, and The Gentleman support Player when he points out that "asdf" looks like a bunch of pets stacked one on top of another. The Gentleman even points out that Mr. Cheese never hangs out with him when the former is the imposter. Player probably could have won had the spaceship pet hadn't hypnotized everyone and kidnapped him.
    • He successfully kills No-Visor and his cult at the end of "No-Visor: The Final Chapter".
    • At the end of “Among Us Logic, But The Imposter Changes Colors...”, Player finally wins as Impostor and everyone congratulates him.
    • When Stoner's cover is blown in the same episode, he makes Player's job easier by framing Rose as the second impostor.
  • Real Men Wear Pink: His Fall Guys character was pink and even had the Unicorn costume in the second video. When Among Us Logic started, however, his theme color became red.
  • Red Is Heroic: He's the main protagonist wearing a red beanie as his trademark.
  • Running Gag: Him constantly losing a game in AUL.
  • Took a Level in Badass: At the end of the No-Visor arc, where he chooses to stay behind to fight No-Visor so Captain and Ninja can flee, and successfully kills him in a sword duel.
  • Took a Level in Cynic: In AUL and FNFL. He becomes more cynical as the series passed on.
  • Took a Level in Dumbass: In AUL and FNFL. For example, in AUL, he became more dumber as the series continued.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: Later episodes in AUL depict him as having become far more amoral and unhinged due to his constant failures, culminating in him cheating to win in episode 13. He gets better at the end of episode 14, deciding that his friends are more important to him then winning and renouncing his victory, though he still remains pretty cynical and bitter.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: In AUL and FNFL. He starts caring more for the people around him as both of the series passed on. PPL makes him notably kinder than in AUL or FNFL.
  • Transplant: Since his debut in Fall Guys Logic, he's been the protagonist of pretty much every Logic video ever.
  • The Un Favourite: Implied that his mom prefers Dum more. Inverted with his father.
  • Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist: n FNFL, he's a cynical, sarcastic jerk who treats some people (including Girlfriend) badly, luckily he is also one of the more sane characters in the series.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Often gets tricked by the Impostors and falls for their gambits, leading to his defeat.
  • Villain Decay: Played with. Later episodes initially started portraying him as being an absolute incompetent at being an impostor, only for episode 10 to have him and Veteran kill everyone except for the bot and Captain, and he would have won if not for the cheating with the bot.
  • Villainous Breakdown: At the end of "The King Impostor", an episode where he plays as Impostor, he completely bursts into panic and starts begging Querty to let him back on the ship after the robot traps him in Navigation and prepares to blast him into oblivion.
  • Villain Protagonist: In the episodes where he's the Impostor.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Downplayed with Veteran. The two usually get along, but occasionally insult each other.
  • Vocal Evolution: His voice became increasingly higher-pitched and nasal, only to be toned down slightly and gain a bit of a rasp to it.
  • Yank the Dog's Chain:
    • He finally wins in 13, but since he cheated, he's banished to the Cheater's Lobby forever.
    • He legitimately wins in episode 15, only to be devoured by a horde of zombies immediately afterwards.
    • He manages to score a legitimate win in Game Toons Gaming, and celebrates after winning a game as the Impostor.
    Player: Yes! I won! Player is the best person ever!
    Stoner: Too bad it's not canon, bro.
    Player: WHAT?!
    • He nearly wins in "The King Impostor", managing to use his own status as the resident loser to stay away from suspicion, only to be trapped in Navigation, which is ejected from the ship by Querty, who proceeds to blast him to oblivion.
