Characters / Life On Bogota

Characters from Life On Bogota.

Zisteau

The central player of the series, from whose perspective we view the events. Zisteau is arguably the most level-headed of the group, but is still prone to the same scheming, vindictiveness and callous disregard for others as his friends are.

• The Evil Genius: The brains behind the group's plans.
• Establishing Character Moment: The very first episode has him accidentally killing Dog Doc's dog... and then going on to criticize the way the dog's grave looks, and imply that the pet will soon be replaced.
• Jerkass: Among many other things, he has a habit of injuring or killing the other players' wolves. Not that the others don't, but he starts the tradition.
• Kick the Dog: Quite literally, on numerous occasions. Most egregiously, he kills the group's pet snowman purely because he can and knows it will annoy the others.
• Transformers: His skin is based on Shockwave from Transformers: Generation 1.

Dog Doc

Generally the most timid and soft-spoken of the group, and a frequent victim of their jokes, especially early in the series.

• Doctor Who: His skin is based on the Tenth Doctor.
• The Dog Bites Back: After a few episodes he takes his opportunity to kill Zisteau by shooting him in the back while on an outdoor stroll at night.
• Nice Guy: The least likely of the group to be antagonistic...for the most part.

Nimmrod

A friend of Zisteau's; he arrives in episode 6.

• Deadpan Snarker: Much more understated in his humor than the others, and often a bit monotone.

Stickicide

Apparently the youngest member of the group, he first shows up in episode 9. Stickicide is best known for his knowledge of redstone and other technical game mechanics.

• Butt-Monkey: Due to his absence during the Cleve Land arc, the group takes a lot of opportunities to poke fun at him behind his back.
• The Evil Genius: Along with Zisteau. While Z plans things, Stick executes them.

The Dogs

The many, many dogs owned by the group, who rarely survive for longer than one or two episodes.

• Running Gag: They all die, often being killed directly by the players themselves.
