It contains a picture of and link to a page about every major character that has ever been seen within the Homestar Runner body of work. Although you may not visit this page very often, there are many other pages on the wiki with a format like this (for example, Toons, Games, and Main Pages, to name a few). Note the "Contents" box below the first paragraph; every heading on the page has a link here for convenience.

This page is a list of characters. For the article on the Homestar Runner Characters page, see Character Videos.
The gang's all here.

This page contains lists of the numerous 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.

Contents

[edit] Secondary characters

Characters who appear now and then, but aren't quite part of the inner cadre of Free Country, USA's leading citizens.

[edit] Bands and musicians

Bands large and small can be heard in Free Country, USA, with many of them even releasing full songs and albums.

Glam metal band Limozeen is one of Strong Bad's favorite bands.

[edit] Variations

The Brothers Chaps sometimes recreate the entire cast of the website in an alternate style, often populating these variations with new characters who have no counterpart in the "normal" world. 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. Several toons, starting with the 100th Strong Bad Email, flashback, deliberately use an animation style which matches some of the earliest work of The Brothers Chaps.

[edit] Old-Timey

1930-era toons from the days of black and white silent movies and early talkies.

[edit] 20X6

An alternate universe containing futuristic anime versions of Homestar Runner characters.

[edit] Storybook

Characters from the original Homestar Runner storybook or in that style.

[edit] Younger versions of characters

Variations of the characters that are younger than their main counterparts. Unlike many of Strong Bad's fanciful recollections, these are more likely to represent how the characters actually were in their younger years.

[edit] The Homestar Runner Mysfit-steries

A television show starring several teenaged variations of the characters, spoofing '70s Hanna-Barbera cartoons (primarily Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!). Originating from Strong Bad's recollections in high school. See Mysfit-steries Character Variations for character details.

[edit] Other variations from high school

The Strong Bad Email "high school" briefly featured several additional recollections of how the characters appeared when they were younger. These exaggerated variations have not been featured outside the initial email.

[edit] Middle school variation

Muppet Babies-like infant variations of the characters. See Middle School Character Variations for character details.

[edit] Free Petry Dish, USA

Microscopic variations of the characters. See Free Petry Dish, USA Character Variations for character details.
