Sole Survivor
A succubus known for seduction.
First Darkstalkers fan character.
- The Bad Guy Wins: The most competent of the season’s villains, and also the one who ends up beating fellow villain Matt along with Heinz, the closest the season has to a hero, in the end.
- Batman Gambit: Nullifying her vote at the Final 7; she manages to keep the two people she wanted in the game at a very critical time.
- The Chessmaster: Is able to mastermind moves basically entirely behind Matt and Heinz’s backs, rendering them completely clueless while she’s able to take credit at the end.
- Ice Queen: Acts pretty cold to everyone pretty much the whole season.
- I'm Not Here to Make Friends: But by the end, she's admitted that she's become friends with Hannah/Oehda and Emilee.

Runners-Up
First Tekken fan character or not.
Came back for Season 10: Battle of the Tribes.
- Action Hero: The closest thing this season has to a hero.
- Nice Guy: Notably rather pleasant, especially compared to his fellow finalists.
- The Reveal: He's not actually a Tekken character. He lied to get himself on the show, which was exclusive to fan characters.
- Revenge Before Reason: Develops a single-minded obsession with taking down Matt once he returns to the game.
- Rule of Symbolism: His torch wasn't snuffed out completely when he was voted off. Considering the same thing had happened with a certain returnee from the actual show, this could have been the author spoiling the fact that Heinz would be returning.
- Ship Tease: Occasionally teased to pair off with Kiara or Melanie.
- Unwitting Pawn: In his own attempt to get Xero eliminated from Yrsa'Ka, he mutinies to the other tribe before Xero can, and trusts in his tribe to throw immunity and get rid of him. Unfortunately, this was Matt and Xero's plan; Xero wins immunity for the tribe, and Heinz, being the lowest man on the totem pole in the opposing tribe, gets voted off next tribal council.
A so-called "villainous mastermind" who is vastly incompetent yet thinks he's in control of the game all the time.
Second Super Mario Bros. fan character.
- Brought to You by the Letter "S": The "M" on his shirt.
- The Chessmaster: Subverted; while he did make it to the end, he failed in manipulating people.
- Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: Tends to backstab his allies for little to no reason beyond padding his resume.
- Humiliation Conga: Though he uses the nullifier on Heinz and plays his hidden immunity idol, the tribe votes off his right-hand man Johnny instead. So he not only has he wasted both a hidden immunity idol and a nullifier power that he can only use once per game, he loses all his allies at the Final 8.
- Manipulative Bastard: Well, kind of. Most of his moves were either ineffective or wound up hurting him. Definitely a bastard, though.
- Small Name, Big Ego: Despite thinking he's a master strategist who controls the game, all he's managed to do so far is eliminate some annoying tribe mates (Shaniqua and Penny), backstab his own alliance members, just to prove he can (Heinz and Xero), and become completely oblivious to any real major moves (Johnny). This fact is even brought up at Final Tribal Council, where it's completely obvious that he had no idea what was going on half the time.
- Smug Snake: Incredibly smug and lacks the gameplay acumen to back it up.
The Jury
First The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy fan character.

- Vitriolic Best Buds: With Iraenus.
Fifth Sonic The Hedgehog fan character.

- The Alcoholic: Is drunk basically the entire time.
- Grumpy Old Man: Not an especially happy camper, he spends most of his time grumbling and complaining.
- Older Than They Look: Sure, he's old, but he doesn't exactly look like he's 74.
- Papa Wolf: Despite his tense relationship with his son, he flipped out when Iraneus started the fat jokes.
- The Unintelligible: He's somewhat intelligible when his son convinces him to speak slower, but otherwise... what the hell is he saying?
- Unwitting Pawn: Pre-merge, had almost no idea of the going-ons around camp, and post-merge is being used as a Goat by Matt and subsequently targeted for that reason by others.

Came back in Season 20: Generations.
- Cloud Cuckoo Lander: His daydreaming tendencies tend to give him some rather odd vibes.
- The Ditz: Not the sharpest tool in the shed, which is saying something considering the cast he's on.
- The Dog Bites Back: When he finally realizes at the Final Tribal Council that Matt cares about him only as a vote, he goes on an angry tirade while voting about how badly Matt screwed up with him and votes for Melanie instead, resulting in Matt getting zero votes.
A so-called "business bunny" who sees the game as a business transaction... until he sees a hot girl, that is.
