The gang's all here

This page contains lists of the various Homestar Runner characters. If you're new to Homestar Runner, you'll get a pretty good idea what's going on by simply getting familiar with the main cast members. If you're interested in going a little deeper, try the secondary characters.

Main characters

These are the principal recurring characters of Homestar Runner's world. Each of these characters is honored with a tape on the Character Videos menu.

Homestar Runner	Strong Bad	The Cheat	Strong Mad
Strong Sad	Pom Pom	Marzipan	Coach Z
Bubs	The King of Town	The Poopsmith	Homsar

Secondary characters

Characters that appear fairly often, but aren't quite part of the inner cadre of Free Country, USA's leading citizens.

Strongbadia

The empty lot by the fence where Strong Bad is king.

Also known as...

Sometimes the Brothers Chaps recreate the entire cast of the website in an alternate style. This section is for tracking and organizing all of the variations of the main characters.

There are also complicated narrative modes on the site. Strong Bad often answers "What If" questions in his emails, which leads to minor variations on normal characters. Anything created by The Cheat has a very rudimentary flash style. Puppets are sometimes used in lieu of animation. The 100th Strong Bad Email deliberately uses an animation style which matches some of the earliest work of the Brothers Chaps. Many of these minor variations (such as Thnikkaman & ABA Basketball Pom Pom) can be found in the character variations category.

Old-Timey
