The characters, as they appear in the original TVTome Adventures:
open/close all folders
The Main Five
Alpha
Associated Tropes:
- Good Wings, Evil Wings: Normally his wings are white. In demon form his wings turn black. In season 2 when he fuses the virus into his character as armor he has one black wing and one white wing.
- The Hero: For the most part he leads the group against the hackers is talented at the game, and is possessed by the forbidden power, saves damsels in distress, etc. He gets a lot of character focus.
- Making a Splash: Poseidon Wave.
- Official Couple: With Flamegirl.
- Playing with Fire: Vulcan Fist.
- Shock and Awe: Zeus' Rage.
Kirbopher15
Associated Tropes:
- An Ice Person: He can shoot icicles with his sword
- Badass Adorable: His character is literally a White Sword Kirby
- Blow You Away: He can form a tornado with his sword to attack with.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Jealous of Zetto's relationship with Ruri, which is somewhat of a meta gag considering that both Kirb and Zetto are based on Niosi himself.
- The Lancer: As a lancer he mostly just serves as a rival for Alpha to surpass. He's made out to be a better fighter for a lot of the series, and given equivalent virus powers. Also while everyone was a bit snarky in TTA he was the closest to being as snarky as GC in the original.
- Shock and Awe: He can shoot lightning from his sword. He first demonstrates this on a flight character, which we find out are weak to electric attacks.
- The Rival: To Alpha. Who he tends to be pit against during practice fights and tournaments.
- Walking Head: His sprite is based off of a kirby. So he's pretty much a walking poof-ball with arms and shoes.
Flamegirl
Associated Tropes:
- Damsel in Distress: Happens to get kidnapped quite a bit.
- Official Couple: With Alpha.
- Playing with Fire: All of her attacks are flame based.
Gamecrazed
Associated Tropes:
- Casting a Shadow: His powers are based off of darkness and shadows.
- Deadpan Snarker: Kirbopher claims the Character Kirbopher inherited this trope from Gamecrazed in the reboot [1]
- Sarcastic Devotee: He's all for defeating the hacker threat, and he'll never leave the heroes behind, but he's not afraid to tell the crew he thinks their plan is stupid, and/or could get them killed.
- Power of the Void: His special attack is a black hole
- Fake Defector: He joins the Purple Flame in the last arc, a hacker organization, but he only does it to find out more about what they are planning.
Nailock
Associated Tropes
- An Ice Person: Almost all his attacks are based off of ice.
- Arch-Enemy: Simdragon. A hacker with a similar draconic dispositon.
- Draconic Humanoid: He's a humanoid dragon. Unlike his Dragon Knight version in TOME in TTA he's more of a fighter than a knightly character.
- Gratuitous Japanese: He was portrayed as an obsessive anime fan giving himself titles in japanese. His title was "Nairaku Kotetsu Ryu".
- Large Ham / Plucky Comic Relief: He was pretty much made out to be a walking joke. He was very expressive, and over reacted to things in over the top ways to get a laugh out of the viewer.
- Self-Referential Humor: There's a joke in one of the episodes about him not getting recognition like the other main characters. In which he creates a gigantic iceberg kicks it in the air, and lands in the purple cave region, clear across the world of the game. When he lands he says "Aloha" in an over the top hammy way trying to look awesome. He then starts to cry and notes that "nobody's ever around to give a shit".

MysteryX

Kinetix
Darkblazer
Orbit
The Netkings
Webmaster
Associated Tropes:
- Big Good: Pretty much functions as the equivalent of the good commander after the main characters meet him. And uses his powers over code to give the heroes weapons against the viruses.
- Giant Hands of Doom: Has huge claw hands.
- Light 'em Up: The "Submission Seal" finisher shows off this motif.
- Floating Limbs: Has huge floating claws disconnected from his body.
- Shock and Awe: His "Admin Hand (Gold)" attack.

Blitz 128
Associated Tropes:
- Berserk Button: He doesn't like his mushroom head being touched, as Alpha figured out.

- Plant Person: His character is based off of a mushroom.
- Random Effect Spell: His famous "OPEN THE BOX" attack, which can either release a Super Mushroom, 1Up Mushroom, A Fire Flower which releases fireballs, A Star, and a Button that summons up to three thwamps on the field.
Kindarspirit
Associated Tropes:
- Cuteness Proximity: Loves cute things, including Kirb himself.
- Limit Break: when she gets hit enough, she Turns Red briefly and uses a more aggressive attack pattern
- Smurfette Principle: The only female Net King. She jokes that it technically makes her a Net Queen.
Rubyrulz
Associated Tropes:
- Ditto Fighter: He's type Mokujin that can change within the same fight, and can use moves the characters he copies before they even know them because of his high level.
- Early-Bird Cameo: Appeared early in the series as Alpha's doubleganger to get a better understanding of him.
- Weaksauce Weakness: He can only copy opponents that are within his opponent's cache (as in, people his opponents have seen and/or fought before). Nailock takes advantage of this and deletes his cache data so he could defeat Ruby easily.
EXE
Associated Tropes
- The Atoner: Seems to genuinely regret his actions when realizing they endangered the Net King's surrogate daughter Motherboard.
- Blood Knight: Developed the Battle System alongside Zetto, though his desire of fighting and being the strongest of TOME isn't nearly as defined. Or rather, as obvious or insane
- Doppelgänger Attack: Can split himself up to three times.
- Eye Scream: received a scar from Kagemamaru.
- Fire, Ice, Lightning: Can use any three of these elements, which is clear by his slight hue coloring each time. Combined with his Doppelgänger Attack, this makes him a tough opponent.
- The Man Behind the Man: It's revealed in season 2 he was giving Zetto orders and controlling the D-Bug and D-Bug II Organizations from behind the scenes the whole time.
Zetto
Associated Tropes
- Stock Shōnen Rival: To Alpha.
- Teen Genius: He was hired by Netking Software despite only being a teenager due to his gift with computers.

Tsuzuku tells him to go away.
