Gaster Wingdings
A crazy skeleton and the most weird oddball of the Inside Falls town. Chara and Frisk first meet him on a trip to a eastern ruin area, talking about a dragon, and later discover on the same day about this dragon, actually a machine made by him proper.
- Adaptational Comic Relief: Canon!Gaster? A character surrounded by mystery thanks to being a deconstruction of the
Dummied Out trope. Inside-Falls!Gaster? The local skeleton kook and Mad Scientist that is goofy and friendly. Subverted when, despite keeping most of his personality, he ends helping the Dreemurrs overthrow a organization of memory erasors and is shown to have more depth than what the twins suspected. - The Apocalypse Brings Out the Best in People: Gaster is the one to lead the survivors to the Crystal Shack, and he builts the Crystal-Bot, a robot that the heroes can finally use for non-nefarious purposes.
- Beware the Nice Ones/Beware the Silly Ones: The most weird inhabitant of Inside Falls? Check. An actually friendly fellow most of the time? Check. An expert Mad Scientist capable of building convincing robots? Check.
- Dark Is Not Evil: Is described as having black clothes but after the events of "The Tale of Destiny", he doesn't cause harm to the twins and only really reaches the Ambiguously Evil. Played even more straight when he turns out the hero of "Association Of the Blank Mind".
- Dem Bones: A skeleton and, alongside Asriel, one of the few monsters living alongside the humans of Inside Falls.
- Hard Head: His head does have cracks (possibly born from his Sanity Slippage period) but it's still tough enough to make a headbutt able to knock out a cult leader.
- Heroic Sacrifice: What ultimately pushes him to the Sanity Slippage. He saved Garnet from being sucked into the portal, getting his head briefly stuck in it, getting traumatized with a vision of the Zodiac Demons' true plans.
- Implied Love Interest: He awkwardly laughs and blushes after Chara asks if he remembers the Author (who is female). It gets even more implied when Garnet is revealed to be the Author.
- Mythology Gag: The hambone gag from "Society of the Blind Eye" is replaced in "Association Of the Blank Mind" with Gaster writing in wingding symbols.
- Nice Guy: He is insane but nevertheless pretty lovable and polite to the Dreemurr twins. Doesn't mean you don't have to watch out for him, though.
- Red Herring: Averted. Since Chara already knows since "Here We Are" that the author of the books is actually a woman, she suspects that Gaster is not the author, but must have a connection with the author, like being some sort of ally. It turns out to be exactly the case.
- Sanity Slippage: After working with the female author on a project, he presumably witnessed something horrible (revealed in "Frisk and The Secret World" to be The Zodiac Demons' actual plans) that made him quit the project. He modified a gun that created illusions to also include a memory-erasing function. This is what ultimately transformed him into the Mad Scientist kook he is today.
- Terms of Endangerment: A heroic/heroic-allied variation. Gaster calls Blank Gray (the leader of the Association of the Blank Mind) "buddy" and "friend" right before knocking him out with a headbutt.
Connie and Amethyst
Two girls Frisk meets and befriends on a party in the Crystal Shack, and the first real best friends of Frisk besides her twin sister.
- Adaptational Species Change: Amethyst becomes a human.
- Badass Adorable: Both are two honest and lovable friends from Frisk, but when they are caught in one of the Dreemurr twin's adventures, they are no kind of load.
- Beware the Nice Ones: "Hallowater" has already proved that.
- Big, Thin, Short Trio: With Frisk. Connie is the Thin, Amethyst is the Big, Frisk is the Short.
- Chekhov's Gun: Connie brings a scissor to the quest in "Frisk and The Secret World". They're used to cut the Beldam's hair.
- Demoted to Extra: Their roles in their original cartoon are pretty large, but it's not exactly the same in this fanfic. Subverted when they both start appearing in all the chapters after "Sailor Solar System Planets and Satellites".
- Kindhearted Cat Lover: Amethyst; she has a little brown cat for a pet and is one of Frisk's best friends.
- Token Minority: Both of them. Connie remains Indian while Amethyst becomes South American.
- Town Girls: Amethyst is the Butch and Connie is the Neither to Frisk's Femme.
Etoile Rosenqueen
The great-granddaughter of the apparent founder of Inside Falls and local Alpha Bitch, tormenting and clashing agains't Frisk. However, since "The Slack-battle", the rivarly starts to cool down. She becomes definitively better during "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery".
- Alpha Bitch: At first. Afterwards, she fits the more lovable variety, like her canon counterpart.
- Animal Motifs: In "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery", she seems to get a owl motif, having a owl as a pet and using plumage on her shoulders. She also fulfills some of the owl's symbolisms, which are: femininity (her lady-like ways), intuition (snaps her parents out of their two ways of thinking and ends up making them better), and a life transition/change (Heel–Face Turn).
- Arch-Enemy: Of Frisk, according to Chara. However, in "The Slack-battle", they stop hating each other.
- Badass Pacifist: How she defeats Flowey, the ghost possessing a golden flower that is threatening to destroy the Rosenqueen Palace? By opening the gates, fulfilling the promise of her family.
- Character Development:
- In the second arc's chapter "The Slack-battle", she opens up a bit more to Frisk, her former rival.
- In "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery", she performs a all-out Heel–Face Turn, and snaps her parents from their loving but distant ways and their fear of their ancestors.
- Faux Horrific: In the third part of Terrorcalypse, the sole reason she initially refuses to touch Gaster's hand is that he lacks palms.
- Fire-Forged Friends:
- After escaping from the Pokémons in "The Slack-battle", Etoile starts to be more friendly with Frisk, possibly because of the latter's status as a All-Loving Hero.
- Etoile also becomes a great friend of Chara during "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery".
- Mythology Gag: The questions she asks for her parents during her blue-screen-of-death in "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery" are based on the lines she says to her father in a scene during the Miss Marl Contest, in Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure.
Rhapsody!Etoile: Having a family doesn't mean anything! You and mother proved it! [...] All you and mother care about is money and status! Nothing else! You don't care about me!
Inside Falls!Etoile: Father, why your only working on money and status, and never about taking care of me?! You and mother don't love me?!...family doesn't mean anything?
- Noblewoman's Laugh: Does some of these, like her canon self.
- Ojou Ringlets
- Pimped-Out Dress: Her trademark outfit.
- Pink Means Feminine: Her trademark dress contains a significant amount of pink.
- Rich Bitch: Is from a family believed to be (but are not) the founders of Inside Falls, and very condescing towards the twins. She changes for the better a little bit in "The Slack-battle", and a Freudian Excuse is given, alongside a proper level in kindness, in "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery".
- The Rival: To Frisk. It gets better after "The Slack-battle".
- Tsundere: Her attempts of being nice come as this. She evens says Baka at one point.
- Took a Level in Kindness: Evolves from "full-blown Alpha Bitch bully to Frisk" to "Friendly Enemy/Vitriolic Best Buds with Frisk" in "The Slack-battle". She becomes even more nicer in "Rosenqueen Palace Mystery".
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: While teaming up with Chara, she is the Girly Girl to Chara's Tomboy.
Jasper Rochelle Alma
A member of Lapis' teen friends group that becomes a rival agains't Chara for Lapis affection, until Chara exposes a mind-control music and Lapis decides to break the friendship.
- Brains Evil, Brawn Good: A Inverted and Downplayed example. Jasper, the muscle Jerkass of her teen group, becoems a rival for Chara, a smaller, younger, cuter, but smarter and nicer girl.
- Catchphrase Insult: Loves calling Chara a "runt".
- Deadpan Snarker
- Gender-Blender Name: Jasper is actually a male name, despite being a girl. It may dwell more into Tomboyish Name, however, considering her personality.
- Jerk Jock: A female version of this trope.
- The Rival: To Chara.
- Took a Level in Kindness: Becomes friendly to Frisk after she makes her and Taylor fall in love in "The Love Witch".
- Tomboy: Starting by the fact she's got muscles for a 15-years old girl and a Barbarian Long Hair.
