This is a list of characters of the web series, TOME: Terrain of Magical Expertise.

The Main Five

Alpha

Original TTA Incarnation: Alpha / Ultimate Creature II

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Fighter

Power: Greek Mythology

Voice: Mike Luckas (original TTA, live-action in TOME), Blake Swift

Alpha is one of the five main characters on TOME, of the Fighter class, with abilities based on Greek Mythology. He also obtained the Forbidden Power during Episode 1 which takes the form of a static field around him with the ability to speak. It seems to only talk to Alpha, and causes pain to other players in the real world. As of Episode 10, the Forbidden Power was removed from Alpha, only to be remerged with it back in Episode 15.

Alpha is generally shy around people, but can be quite confident and talkative when with his friends. He seems to be able to most easily talk with Kirbopher, while he has some problems talking to Flamegirl due to his crush on her. When fighting, Alpha is skilled but not overly strong, unless he decides to allow the Forbidden Power in. When controlled by the Forbidden Power, he becomes noticeably more confident and is able to use brand new abilities that cause harm to players in the real world. When the Forbidden Power is riled up by Tigerlily's screech in Episode 5 it decides to take control of Alpha body, transforming him into a monster that goes on a destructive rampage, killing any player in sight. It recedes when losing to a powerful enemy or when Flamegirl disables it with the antivirus. In Episode 10, Alpha is noticeably more reserved and secluded because of all the players harassing him to get the Forbidden Power. On the other hand, he demonstrates himself to be more confident as he decides to listen to Zetto's offer and takes charge of the approach to get rid of the Forbidden Power for good.

From Season 2 (Episode 11) onwards, he's shown to be a lot more outgoing, confident and direct with people, likely having overcome the doubts he felt about himself after his dangerous encounter with Demon Zetto. Alpha demonstrates a more angry side as a result of his increased confidence, showing anger and frustration at things he can't get answers for or doesn't understand.

Alpha values his friends greatly, as part of his reason for letting the Forbidden Power attach to his character was because it told him he would lose his friends if he wasn't strong. He's willing to fight toward the end for the people he cares greatly about, such as Flamegirl. From what is heard about his real life, he doesn't seem to have any real friends outside of TOME because of his introverted nature. In Episode 14, Alpha has an emotional breakdown after realizing his friends were gone.

Alpha is based on Mike Luckas, the co-creator of TOME and real-life best friend of creator Chris Niosi. Luckas voiced the character in TTA and reprises his role for the live-action segments in the final episode and the AvZ short as well as the April Fools short. Corey Holland, former classmate of Niosi at SVA, was the original choice for the voice of Alpha before he settled on Blake Swift.

Flamegirl

Original TTA Incarnation: Flamegirl

Location: California, US

Class: Spellcaster

Power: Fire

Voice: Cheryl Davis (TTA), Emily Nicolas (TOME, live action), Anna Kingsley (TOME)

Flamegirl, sometimes called "Flamey", is one of the five main characters in TOME, a Spellcaster with the power of fire. Unbeknownst to her, the antivirus program - or "Purple Flame" - to cure the Forbidden Power had been attached to her character model in Episode 3, which was the power source of the Dragon Bug. This made her the only person able to stop the Power's influence on Alpha, and later put her in risk of brain death when the Flame was used by Rubirules to try and control SOFDTI.

Flamegirl's real name is Stephanie; she lives in California.

Flamegirl is quite confident in both herself and others. She is quite powerful in battle, and capable of playing the game very well. She enjoys talking with her friends, whether it be the guys or girls, it doesn't seem to matter, as long as they are close to her.

She cares for all of them, but none more than Alpha. When the Forbidden Power took over his body and he transformed into a monster, she kept asking about him and trying to figure out what was wrong, more intently than the others.

Kira Buckland, Apphia Yu and Jessi Nowak were original choices for Flamegirl, until Niosi held a private audition and Anna Kingsley won the role. Flamegirl is the only character of TOME to have an audition for her role.

Zetto / Kirbopher

Original TTA Incarnation: Kirbopher 15 / Zetto

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Fighter (as Zetto) / Swordsman (as Kirbopher)

Power: Ki-Manipulation (as Zetto) / Ice (as Kirbopher)

Voice: Chris Niosi

Zetto is a main character in the TOME series, introduced as an antihero for the goings-on in the TOME universe, he initally antagonizes Alpha and his friends at the beginning.

He was originally considered Netking Number 6, and was responsible for testing Netking Software's Virtual Reality system during beta. At some point, he and his partner, Kizuna, disbanded from the Netkings and went on to form D-Buggers.org per Rubirules's suggestion. His alter-ego is the character Kirbopher, whom hangs out with Alpha and the other members.

Because of his involvement in the game's development as the combat tester, Zetto takes the fighting aspect of TOME very seriously, challenging practically every player he meets to a battle. He is understandably confident in his combat capabilities considering how he defeats nearly all of his opponents with great ease. This obsession with battle is also one of the negative aspects of his personality, making him unable to get any enjoyment out of the game unless he is winning or his competition is serious. In Episode 12, Nylocke realizes that Zetto's outburst at the Gemini Tournament in Episode 9 was probably caused by Nylocke's light-hearted attitude towards a world that Zetto spent months creating.

Zetto is shown to have good intentions, as he regretted hiring Rockoon and Doubling since they did nothing but destroy Lavendera (which he states wasn't what he wanted). He meant no ill will, as he only wanted to make the most of any free time he had in TOME before the Forbidden Power took that away from him too. He also has no wish to use the Forbidden Power for evil, and simply wants to destroy it.

In Season 2, his personality is slightly different, him having become less smug and confident ever since the events of Episode 10. His cool, collected facade seems to have slipped and he comes across as emotionally broken. He is more determined and angry than before, willing to even endanger his friends in order to defeat it.

Zetto's determination to get rid of the Forbidden Power stems from an incident during TOME's development in which Zetto's arm was removed, causing him immense pain.

As Kirbopher, he aims to enjoy himself in TOME, usually not getting involved in such pointless drama. He's shown to be very spazzy, short tempered, and very serious when it comes to playing the game. In season 2, he is shown to exhibit an even shorter temper, accompanied with his occasionally vulgar language, possibly stemming from stress and deep frustration after the events of Episode 10.

Despite their conflicts in recent episodes, Alpha seems to be his closest friend in the game. Kirbopher can be cold and harsh when that friendship is threatened, such as when he argued with Alpha in Episode 5.

Though Kirbopher does act very snarky and sarcastic to his friends and can get annoyed with them sometimes especially with Nylocke, there are times he really does care about them and has a sort of sensitive side, although he tends to not show it much.

As a rule, he never joins the others to fight hackers, using the excuse that he only wants to play the game for fun. This could actually be an attempt to discourage the others from fighting hackers, as Zetto's plan revolves around using hackers to find the Forbidden Power, and he has stated that the others were getting in the way of that plan. It is revealed in Short #7 that Kirbopher was meant to be an escape from searching for the Forbidden Power and just enjoy TOME for how it should've been and just hang out with his friends.

He's the 3rd longest running player in the group and has plenty of experience playing the game, as he is later revealed to be Zetto.

Zetto and Kirbopher's personalities and mannerisms are modeled after creator and voice Chris Niosi himself. Kirbopher was derived from Kirby, Niosi's favorite video game character. Even though the character was always depicted to be humanoid, due to the limitations in spirte animation, the character was animated to be a white patletted Link Kirby sprite in TTA. The TOME incarnation portrays the character as an imp-like creature, in similarity to Toon Link. Zetto was based on an alias Niosi used to counter-attack the spammers back when he and Mike Luckas were users on TV Tome. Vegata of Dragon Ball Z was a heavy influence in design.

SOFTDI / Gamecrazed

Original TTA Incarnation: Gamecrazed / Motherboard

Location: TOME

Class: Morphilogical

Power: Shadows

Voice: Gregory Prytyka Jr. (TTA, April Fools), Kira Buckland (as Motherboard in TTA), Casey Mongillo (TOME)

SOFDTI, which stands for Self-Operating Full-Duplex Technical Intelligence, is a highly-advanced artificial intelligence accidentally created by the Netkings while developing TOME. She learns via human thoughts transmitted through the game's virtual reality interface, and the negative emotions she discovered through this process eventually became the Forbidden Power.

SOFDTI has the ability to counteract the Forbidden Power using positive emotions, which appear as a purple flame which surrounds her, similar to the one marking the presence of the Antivirus carried by Flamegirl, since it is merely an emulation of her containing code.

In order to prevent government interference, SOFDTI is stored at the core of TOME, feeding off of and enjoying the positive emotions and friendship experienced through playing the game - however, knowing that her world was in danger if the Power ever awakened, and wanting to be able to watch over it, she created Gamecrazed, her "shadow", to move around the Terrain freely. At some point, Rubirules realized the implications of SOFDTI's code, and decided that he wanted to use her to profit off of the idea of advanced artificial intelligence. By manipulating Zetto and Kizuna, Rubirules intended to find the Forbidden Power and abuse it to his advantage, and although SOFDTI was aware of this, she did not realize his motivations were not for the greater good until it was too late. After a battle in TOME's core, Rubirules's combined use of the Virus and the Antivirus was able to overwhelm SOFDTI, who remained dormant until Alpha was able to save her and Flamegirl once and for all. Although SOFDTI was unable to meet her friends outside of the Terrain of Magical Expertise, when Michael, Stephanie, Nylocke and Kirbopher met up in Burbank, California during the epilogue, they filmed their encounter for her so it was like she was there in person.

As Gamecrazed, he generally appears as a very quiet, collected, and polite individual. A few times, characters have also described him as nice. He tends to stick with himself and often replies with a simple "hm" when spoken to in a conversation.

Whenever meeting in public is brought up between the gang, he usually tries to change the topic and usually appears uncomfortable with it. Since GC is revealed to be the "shadow" of SOFDTI in episode 15, he knows he can't meet them in real life and thus won't talk about meeting them in real life.

Gamecrazed's appearance is modeled after the Nintendo GameCube controller, with later TTA updates shows some influence in the Wii Nunchuck. SOFTDI was originally portrayed as a humanoid AI named Motherboard in TTA.

Nylocke

Original TTA Incarnation: Nailock

Location: Knutsford, England, UK

Class: Swordsman

Power: Ice

Voice: Colin Zabielski (TTA, April Fools), Martin Billany

Nylocke, sometimes called "Nye", is one of the five main characters in TOME, a Swordsman with the power of ice. He is notable as a skilled fighter but also as a role player, who acts as the character his model pictures and almost never breaks this facade, regardless of the current situation. On very few occasions - usually when he is shaken or feels the need to be honest with someone - his true personality has broken through. His character model was created by Rubirules as a prize to the 1,111,111th player to dissimulate the code for the head of the Dragon Bug.

Nylocke is a role-player, a player who likes to pretend and act like the character that they play as. He has the habit of giving himself special titles; he will jump into the air and shout "Nylocke!" followed by a title relevant to the situation that generally begins with "Master of..." or "Dragon of...". He is good natured, extremely extroverted and very friendly towards any player he meets, going so far as to help complete strangers, such as Elescope and Hyprelynx. He is an old friend of Gamecrazed, who was possibly the first user Nylocke met in TOME, and serves as a kind of older brother to Flamegirl. He tends to call male players "Sir (username)" and female players "Lady (username)," but notably, Nylocke frequently refers to Kirbopher as "squire" instead. He also frequently pronounces Kirbopher's name incorrectly, though he never means to annoy and eventually comes to correct himself later.

When he is faced with a battle, Nylocke usually acts focused and eager to test his abilities with sportsmanship, and views his opponents as fellow colleagues to have fun with, rather then competitors. When it comes to hackers, however, he displays a strong sense of furious justice, often referring to them as "vile" or "criminals."

In Dragon Drama, it is also revealed that his real life is rough and being in character on TOME is one of the only times he really enjoys himself, which is why he rarely breaks character and prefers to block out anything that doesn't correspond to his idea of fun. This is the first of only a few times in the show that Nylocke breaks character, symbolized by black, reptilian pupils appearing in his eyes.

It is implied that Nylocke has attracted quite a following within the game's community itself due to his over-the-top performance, to the point that several players have deep ties to him. These include Serpentine, a roleplayer who considers himself Nylocke's eternal rival after initially being rejected by him, and Demonking, who was dissuaded from his job as a hacker through Nylocke's persuasion before eventually becoming a roleplayer himself. Whyti seems to admire Nylocke as well, imitating his famous "WHOOSH!" when dashing into a situation.

Nylocke is based on and originally voiced by Colin Zabielski, a friend of Chris Niosi. Nylocke's name was derived from the reverse spelling of Colin's first name. Nailock was originally portrayed as a Japanese-based dragon warrior. Blake Swift and Casey Mongillo were originally the first choices for Nylocke's new voice until Niosi decided on Martin Billany. Several implants of Billany were also inserted into Nylocke such as the character inhailing from Knutsford, where Billany was born. Nylocke's catchphrase "WHOOSH!" was derived from Daggett Beaver in The Angry Beavers "Muscular Beaver" episodes.

Netking Software Staff

Webmaster

Original TTA Incarnation: Webmaster

Location: Washington, US

Class: Spellcaster

Power: Heavenly Light

Voice: Cailen Denton (TTA), Kyle Hebert (TOME)

Webmaster is Netking Number 1, the creator and administrator of TOME and the head of Netking Software. A kind and appreciative character, he usually resides in HOME and watches the game from above. Webmaster is always very proud to see the players of TOME use their creativity to create unique characters, and is equally proud of the amount of support the game has been given. Webmaster lives in Washington, where Netking Software is headquartered.

Chronologically, Webmaster first appears in /FILE:ZERO alongside his fellow Netkings during the development of TOME. He was directly responsible for the creation of SOFDTI, though had little influence on teaching and developing her like the other Netkings did. It was his decision after the Forbidden Power was created to seal her away in the game's code rather than destroy her.

Webmaster is first mentioned in Episode 2, when Asterob mentions that his mansion project was commissioned by Webmaster himself. A stylized portrait of Webmaster can be seen hanging on the back wall of the Mansion before Splat covers the wall with her slime.

Webmaster's first true appearance is at the beginning of Episode 8, introducing the Gemini Tournament and expressing pride at the teams of players who have fought hard to reach the finals. He then appears in-person at the tournament after Dustbunny fills the arena with her smoke to lure Alpha away, using his Heavenly Light abilities to dissipate the smoke instantly. Anneva takes the opportunity to interview Webmaster in the announcers' booth. Webmaster takes special care to not show any preference toward any team in the tournament, instead saying that the team with the best synergy between them will win. He remains in the announcers' booth for Episode 9, declining to comment on the final match between Zetto & Kizuna and Nylocke & Gamecrazed. He appears briefly during the awards ceremony, apparently having personally awarded the trophies to Kizuna and Zetto. He appears again at the end of Episode 10, carrying Zetto's malfunctioning model up to HOME after Zetto's battle with Demon Alpha. He comments on the grayed-out nature of the model's eyes and wonders why he unhooked himself from the game.

Near the beginning of Episode 11, Webmaster appears in ;Sanctuary to commemorate the one-year anniversary of TOME, giving a heartfelt speech about how proud he is of all the different and varied characters that the game has allowed the players to produce. He then announces a special "boss rush" quest for one random winner at the gathering: that player may gather up to four other players to take on the Challenge of the Netkings, fighting their way up the ladder of Netkings to see if they can defeat the creators of the game. If they do, the Netkings will reward them with one wish of the players' choice, within reason. Gamecrazed and his friends inevitably reach the final battle with Webmaster towards the end of Episode 12. Gamecrazed is chosen to fight with Webmaster, and after a furious struggle, Gamecrazed emerges victorious. The other Netkings appear and officially introduce themselves to the players. During this time, Webmaster reveals to them that Zetto and Kizuna were unofficial Netkings tasked with testing the game. Before the subject of the reward can be brought up, Alpha, set off by the mention of Zetto, demands to know who put the Forbidden Power in the game. The Netkings are confused by the question, but before any explanation can be put forward, ChaseAce messages Webmaster about the mysterious object that is floating towards HOME. Webmaster hurriedly apologizes to Alpha and his team and informs them that he has to log them out for their own safety, which he does.

Webmaster is based on John Nestoriak III, the original creator of the TV Tome website. His appearance was derived from Copy X from Mega Man Zero.

Kizuna / Tigerlily

Original TTA Incarnation: Ruri

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Fighter

Power: Sharpshooting

Voice: Santana Questa (TTA), Marianne Miller (TOME, credited under the name Imogen Fox)

Kizuna is a major character in TOME. Kizuna was formerly Netking Number 7, who was responsible for bug-testing the game, but after the original incident with the Forbidden Power, she and her partner, Zetto, split off from the Netkings. She currently acts as the administrator of D-Buggers.org, using a powerful armored form called Tigerlilly as a disguise. She is an Animalistic character with the power of sharpshooting.

Kizuna has little character development over the series, but she is shown to be able to focus intently on one task without letting other things distract her. For example, her participation in the Gemini Tournament with Zetto was nothing more to her than a favor, since it was just part of the plan to get the Forbidden Power. This can lead her to be curt and narrow-minded at times, as she sees her goals as the most important at any moment in time. While she is patient, having to wait several weeks to let certain schemes play out, she gets frustrated easily when something goes awry. Losing the Forbidden Power has made her more irritable than before.

In Episode 00 (File: 00), it was revealed that Kizuna's personality used to be far more easygoing and lighthearted. However, when SOFDTI openly revealed her feelings for Zetto, she closed herself off and became irritable and frustrated, with her feelings only growing stronger after the incident with the Shadowguard Beast.

Episode 15 gives the audience the conclusion that Kizuna's closed and cold attitude stems from her desire to keep Zetto safe and her insecurity from having her secret feelings brought up, as she gets increasingly upset when she says that SOFDTI could very easily release another virus that could hurt Zetto or cause him to go crazy trying to get rid of it, showing a more emotional and paranoid side of her that wishes to protect the one she cares about.

Kizuna was originally depicted as a cat-girl named Ruri until Niosi decided to make a totally different entity from her. Niosi also based her Tigerlily disguise from a TTA character, Voltarius.

Kindarspirit

Original TTA Incarnation: Kindarspirit

Location: Washington, US

Class: Spellcaster

Power: Weather

Voice: Christi Warren (TTA), Michele Knotz (TOME)

Kindarspirit is Netking Number 3 of TOME. She is the sound designer of the game, as well as the game's system voice. Although very serious and professional while in character, she is in reality incredibly young at heart and spazzy, almost kid-like. Her powers revolve around use of the weather; she can spawn clouds of lightning and cause rainstorms and tornadoes.

Kindarspirit is very childlike and carefree, nearly always wearing a smile on her face. Although she has a tendency to spas out and is easily distracted by cute and nerdy things, she is actually very intelligent, and is an excellent computer programmer as well as a sound designer. Kindarspirit is capable of behaving professionally when it is necessary (such as when she is acting as the game's system voice), but her true personality is that of a hyperactive and fun-loving woman. Despite this, Kindarspirit is also very motherly, and is extremely protective of SOFDTI, becoming uncharacteristically angered whenever she is threatened. Kindarspirit is also shown to be kind and caring, but will take action when the situation calls for it.

Kindarspirit's name and character were inspired by the admin of a Kirby fan website Niosi frequents named "Kirby's Rainbow Resort". Kindarspirit's childish nature and fondness for cute things (as well as her weather-related powers) are in reference to this.

Rubirules

Original TTA Incarnation: Rubyrulz

Location: Washington, US

Class: Morphilogical

Power: Mirror Body

Voice: Jacob Sanders (TTA), Yuri Lowenthal (TOME)

Rubirules is Netking Number 4 of TOME and is the true main antagonist of the series. He was in charge of the graphic design for all of TOME and created the character customization system. He is also the one whose approval is needed for each character created in the game, by his own statement in Episode 12. His only power is the ability to transform into any character in the game and use their respective powers. It is revealed in the season finale, Truth. Tears. Ambition., that he is the creator of D-Buggers.org and was the real mastermind behind everything that has happened so far.

At first, Rubirules makes an impression of being a mere jokester always making puns and doing impersonations whenever he can, not taking things seriously. He acts oblivious to the existence of Kajet when it's brought up just like the rest of the Netkings. This is only a mirage as in reality, he's a cruel individual who is willing to use others for his own gain. Rubirules is obsessed with trying to use SOFDTI to start a technological revolution and had no remorse or second thoughts for his actions as he had caused all the main characters the drama and pain they all went through. When Flamegirl was discovered to not be responding once the Dragon Bug was destroyed, he showed no signs of caring and is willing to sacrifice real lives just to reach his goals. Gamecrazed points out that Rubirules, for all these years, managed to convince himself so strongly that his plans were not selfish so the A.I. would not be able to discover his true motives and act, but as he gets closer and closer to his goal, his selfishness and greed shows in him.

Rubirules is based on and named after a TV Tome user who is a friend of Niosi. The casting of Yuri Lowenthal was because Niosi commissioned to do an animated short based on his web series "Shelf Life".

Bitshrum

Original TTA Incarnation: Blitz128

Location: Washington, US

Class: Animalistic

Power: Boxes

Voice: Todd Haberkorn

Bitshrum is Netking Number 2 of TOME. He is the game's area and background designer, responsible for creating ;Lavendera, ;Mechcity, and ;Sanctuary.

When the main five were prepared to battle the Netkings, he appears and tells them all that it IS the end for them, upon which Flamegirl prompts Kirbopher to take him on. Kirbopher defeats Bitshrum by throwing his own boxes back at him (and then jumping on him to score points, a reference to the game Super Mario Bros.) and proclaims himself to be THE KING, upon which the next portal opens and the five enter Webmaster's room for the final Netking Battle.

His appearance and his name are based on the crew members of a website Niosi frequents called Super Mario 128 Central.

Execk

Original TTA Incarnation: EXE

Location: Washington, US

Class: Animalistic

Power: Boxes

Voice: Victor Niosi (TTA), Jon St. John (TOME)

Execk is the fifth of the five Netkings of TOME. He first appears in episode 11, where he acts as the first opponent of the Challenge of the Netkings quest. He is defeated by Alpha.

In Episode 12, Execk is revealed to be in charge of TOME's battle system. He invented the battlegrid.

In Episode 0, Execk constructs the battlegrid and teaches SOFDTI about human nature, saying that combat is necessary to satisfy the human desire for violence. However, in a game, no one gets hurt.

Execk was originally depited as the main antagonist in the original TTA series and was voiced by Niosi's father, Victor. His appearance was influenced by Sigma of Mega Man X and Captain Falco of F-Zero.

Asterob

Original TTA Incarnation: Rob

Location: Scunthorpe, England

Class: Fighter

Power: Reflection

Voice: Lawrence Simpson

Asterob is a programmer hired by Webmaster who was hired by the Webmaster. He possesses a shield that can reflect anything, which would be useful for getting rid of the Forbidden Power.

Asterob comes across as being slightly nervous and wary of other players. He is especially afraid of disappointing the Webmaster, who hired him to program and design certain parts of TOME, such as the Mansion. Despite his nervous tendencies, he's rather nice and friendly towards people he knows he can trust.

He is of English origin, and makes this very clear by using phrases such as "bloody hell" or "crums" when annoyed or distressed.

Asterob's appearance in the TOME incarnation was modeled havingly after his portrayer Lawrence Simpson.

ChaseAce

Original TTA Incarnation: PaperAceChase

Location: North Carolina, US

Class: Mechanical

Power: Prisons

Voice: Matt Wilson (TTA season 2), Arin Hanson (TTA season 3), Bryce Papenbrook (TOME)

ChaseAce is a moderator working in the ;Sanctuary region of TOME. He was responsible for banning Odboll when the hacker invaded the area. He is in a relationship with Bishipp, Webmaster's attendant. ChaseAce lives in North Carolina.

ChaseAce was based on a user friend Niosi had who ran a Mega Man Battle Network Forum named PaperAceChase.

Bishipp

Location: Oregon, US

Class: Spellcaster

Power: Rallying

Voice: Mona Marshall

Bishipp is a character in TOME serving as one of Webmaster's attendants. Her powers are unknown, but she is quickly able to figure out how to get a crowd excited. She is in a relationship with ChaseAce and lives in Oregon.

D-Buggers.ORG

Kajet

Original TTA Incarnation: Kagemomaru

Voice: Chris Niosi (sealed form), Andrew Francis (speaking voice)

Kajet, more commonly known as the Forbidden Power, is a strange entity that exists within the world of TOME. Alpha comes in contact with it after he loses a battle and finds a hidden door. When someone comes into contact with it, it gives them the power to harm players in real life. It was formed from a combination of the Shadow Guard Beast, the first planned boss for TOME, and the negative energy released from the entity that powers TOME, SOFDTI. As of Episode 15, Kajet is gone for good, having joined Alpha one last time, allowing him to come to terms with his inevitable death knowing he did not die powerless.

The Forbidden Power was created by a freak accident back in TOME's development stage. The Netkings were working on what was going to be the first boss of TOME, the Shadow Guard Beast. SOFTDI, the sentient AI living within TOME, had accumulated dark energy within herself from negative emotions and thoughts. Zetto, at the time a VR tester for the game, was there to fight the boss and test its capabilities. Upon its summoning, SOFTDI expels all of her negative energy, and this energy goes into the beast. It speaks to Zetto in a manner similar to the Power's current state, insulting him. Out of anger, Zetto jumps towards the beast but is unable to strike as it swings and chops his arm off. Zetto is unhooked from the game as he starts screaming in pain, apparently very hurt by the virtual assault. The Netkings attempt to seal it away, but it is only with the help of SOFTDI, who acts as a positive to balance out the beast's negative, that they actually lock it up completely and revert it to its larval state, resembling what we know now as the Forbidden Power.

According to what has been said by Zetto as well as information shown during Episode 00, since TOME's virtual reality works by translating brainwaves into data, the Power does the opposite, tricking the brain into feeling pain. Anyone affected by it doesn't suffer any real life injuries, just pain (Zetto's arm only felt like it was cut off, but his arm still works as he's shown still using it as Kirbopher).

Zetto states that it was able to resurface through the use of Alpha's body. When it appears to Alpha, it states it wants to only "be free" and help him, but it truly wants to destroy every player in TOME, and uses Alpha's easily influenced mind and desperate need to impress his friends to achieve that goal. It appears to speak in a sound very similar to breathing, and is bent on taking apart TOME, one player at a time. The Forbidden Power can make a player near-invincible, at the cost of their mind being a network for its thoughts. When it awakens within a person's body, they gain a more serious, brutal personality, as well as intense amounts of strength. In Episode 5, Tigerlilly's sonic screech ability riles up the Forbidden Power, making it angrier. Afterwards it is shown to be noticeably more aggressive, at times awakening within a user and taking complete control of their character, causing their eyes to turn blood red, their teeth to sharpen, and them to adopt a darker color scheme on their character. It is at this point the player will be possessed by the Power, and will attack anything and everything relentlessly, their speech being nothing more than growls, screams, and the occasional "Kill...". A person may not change back to their normal form until they are beaten unconscious, or until coming into contact with the antivirus (as demonstrated with Flamegirl in Episode 7, who had the antivirus attached to her character).

According to Zetto, you can't just get rid of it. Rather, you have to lock it away within TOME itself, or within a host. Zetto attempts to get rid of it in Episode 10 using an early version of the antivirus installed into his left arm, only for it to break free and possess him instead. The last of the Power is seen when Nylocke stabs Zetto in the abdomen with his sword (Drain Edge attached), absorbing the Power into the Drain Edge, as he then proceeds to toss it as far as possible, believing that this'll be the last they see of the Forbidden Power. A post-credits scene shows the Drain Edge having landed on a statue in Sanctuary, glowing eerily.

In Episode 11, the Drain Edge is still stuck on the statue, having gone unnoticed for quite some time. It falls from its resting place to the ground when Gamecrazed's team is taken to HOME.

In Episode 12, Bishipp and ChaseAce stumble across the Drain Edge behind the statue. Before long, the Forbidden Power suddenly breaks out of the item, literally, and begins heading towards HOME. When ChaseAce informs Webmaster of this, not knowing what the Power actually is, Webmaster becomes very concerned and forcefully logs out Gamecrazed's team, stating that there is no way they can help, despite their experience with the Power. The Netkings then prepare to deal with the Power the next day. Zetto mentions to Kizuna that he thinks he knows what the Netkings are planning to do.

The Netkings attempt to seal the Power away again by using a program that simulates the effects SOFDTI had on the virus the first time around. This does not work, and it breaks out revealing its true, dragon-like form as Kajet. Kirbopher comes in to distract it, but is crushed within its grip and rendered unconscious before Alpha can come in riding on the Dragon Bug. The Dragon Bug engages in a deadlocked struggle with Kajet.

Eventually, Kajet and the Dragon Bug cancel each other out and turn into raw data. Rubirules then appears, containing both programs in crystals before heading down into TOME's core to secure SOFDTI. During the ensuing fight, Zetto grabs Kajet's crystal, causing him much pain before Alpha convinces him to give him the program. Zetto agrees and tosses it to Alpha. Alpha enters a state similar to the one he was in when he first discovered the Forbidden Power. He calls out to Kajet and asks it to fight, but Kajet speaks in a very hurt, accepting manner, ready to accept its own death if that is what must happen. Alpha converses with it, reminding it of what it is capable of and what it and Alpha were able to do together, throwing in a few good-natured taunts to rile it up a bit. Kajet agrees to trust him and the two bond together into a highly powerful form of Alpha. They do battle with Rubirules, who merges with the Antivirus to turn into a massive golem. Alpha and Kajet gain the upper hand, but they are seemingly weakened as Rubi transforms into a deformed copy of Alpha and fires the Dragon Bug from his arm. Alpha manages to defeat Rubi though, and upon his kissing Flamegirl, the virus and the antivirus cancel each other out Kajet says his last words before disappearing - "Such overwhelming power...Incredible."

Kajet's name is derived from the nickname of Weston Durant, the main composer of the series.

Rockoon

Original TTA Incarnation: Raccoon

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Animalistic

Power: Explosives

Voice: M. Christian Heywood (credited under his internet alias Deven Mack Jr.)

Rockoon is a recurring hacker in the TOME series, in the Animalistic class with the power of Explosives. Though he has not shown any hacking attempts since Episode 4, he spends his time being a general nuisance and annoying other players. He also has become disillusioned with TOME recently, imploring other players to give up the game.

Despite being a hacker and main recurring antagonist, Rockoon tends to have a very playful, charismatic personality and is a very hyper individual. He has also been noted to become easily offended by obscene or profane language, often calling people "mother scratchers" instead of cursing. As "Rackoon" he makes exaggerated gestures as a mock of martial arts films and anime. He dislikes being referred to as a rodent, explaining that raccoons are closer related to bears instead of rats.

At the finale of Season 2, he is seen to have redeemed himself began to open himself to others, even going as far as defending Archy being bullied by Odboll.

Rockoon was based on a spammer in TV Tome who is obsessed with SpongeBob SquarePants. Rockoon was originally going to only make one appearance but his popularity led him to appear in more. His voice-actor, Deven Mack, later wrote for the character and put some of his own personality traits into him with influences of Daffy Duck, Meowth, Chris Tucker and numerous others. His IRL is revealed to be Rodney Rockwell as shown in Episode 15 and in the TOME April Fools special. Rockoon is also one of Mack's final freelance voice role as he semi-retired due to his new profound career as a full-time voice artist in Toronto and as a casting/voice director in selective video games.

Doubling / Skeight

Original TTA Incarnation: Blingbling / Sk8rboi

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Morphilogical (as Doubling) / Fighter (as Skeight)

Power: Morphing Slime (as Doubling) / Skateboarding (as Skeight)

Voice: Michael Weiss (TTA season 1 and 2, as Sk8rboi), Robert Dote (TTA season 3, as Sk8rboi), Edward Bosco (TOME)

Doubling is a hacker, of the Morphological class with the power of Morphing Slime. He is one of the first two hackers to appear in the series, along with Rockoon.

Doubling is a very foul-mouthed person, using swears frequently, even if he is not particularly frustrated. He has no interest in video games whatsoever, only joining TOME to work for D-Buggers.org and help them acquire some "ultimate power" (though he does note, after destroying a player, that he found the experience to be oddly satisfying). He only agrees to the job because he is low on money and D-Buggers.org are willing to pay if he helps them. Doubling is stated to have an interest in sports.

Doubling made his first appearance in TOME in You've Gotta Virus, where he and Rockoon are looking for the "ultimate power". Later in the episode, they get into a fight with Alpha. With the help of the Forbidden Power, Alpha defeats Rockoon and scares off Doubling. Doubling then returns to D-Buggers.org, stating that he quits, in order to claim the money he was owed. Doubling does not appear again as Doubling in the show after Episode 1. He instead creates a new account for himself to use, Skeight, in order to try and become friends with Rockoon again. Rockoon only accepted him as a partner because he couldn't find another one for the Gemini Tournament. He disposes of Skeight as soon as possible, using a "super move" to throw Skeight out of the arena. However, Skeight continues to follow him until Rockoon finally snaps and tells him to leave and that he never cared about him. Skeight reluctantly leaves, but not before revealing his true identity to Rockoon by calling him a "motherscratcher." Whether or not he will return to TOME is unknown.

Skeight speaks in a dialect imitation of Rockoon, attempting to get on his good side. Although he is an alternate account for Doubling, whether or not this account is hacked is unknown.

Doubling was based on Blingbling, a spammer from TV Tome who teamed up with another spammer Raccoon to spam all over the forums. Sk8rboi was based on a serious and threatening spammer in the website. Both of them in TTA were never made to be the same entity.

Splat

Original TTA Incarnation: Splat

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Morphilogical

Power: Aseshive Slime

Voice: Alison Fanelli

Splat is a minor character who appears in a single episode of TOME. She is a Morphological hacker with the Adhesive Slime ability. She is also Doubling's sister.

Splat focuses on getting the job done and has little tolerance for people who get in her way. She does seem to enjoy TOME far more than her brother, and does take some pleasure in destroying objects.

Splat is voiced by Niosi's real life sister, Alison Fanelli, who desired to play a villain. She was also never depicted as Blingbling's sister in TTA.

Demonking

Original TTA Incarnation: Demonking

Location: Drumheller, Canada

Class: Spellcaster

Power: Hellfire

Voice: Anthony Sardinha

Demonking is a former hacker, as well as a former "employee" of D-buggers.org. He is of the Spellcaster class with the power of Hellfire. He first appears in Highest Form Of Flattery as a hacker, alongside Ravenfreak, but Nylocke convinces him to give up his hacking ways by the end of the episode. He currently also appears in two other shorts as well as cameos in episodes 8 and 9. Demonking lives in Drumheller, Canada.

Demonking is first shown as being quite a stoic and foreboding figure, but when he later begins to talk it is revealed he has little to no interest in hacking or attacking people, and often whines about things if they don't turn out favorably for him. He states that his only reason for hacking is to raise enough money to allow him to return to school. When Nylocke tries to convince him to change his ways, he is successful, and Demonking ends his career as a hacker.

Demonking appears again in The Legend of Nylocke, but with noticeable differences. He is a darker shade of red and bears a tiny mustache. He also speaks in a different, super-villain-like voice, one that's slightly similar to Serpentine's. He attacks Nylocke, explaining that he has once again become a hacker. However, the different voice and the different look make it hard to believe, unless Demonking had become a roleplayer himself, in order to get revenge on Nylocke for hurting his feelings in the last short he appeared in. However, it is revealed that Serpentine took Demonking under his wing and converted him into a role-playing villain. Serpentine is defeated once again, this time by Demonking's intervention, and Nylocke and Demonking maintain a friendly rivalry between themselves.

Demonking is based on a childhood friend Niosi had who was lazy at typing but was quite intellegent.

Ravenfreak

Original TTA Incarnation: Ravenfreak

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Animalistic

Power: Illusion

Voice: Lucien Dodge

Ravenfreak is a hacker with sadomasochistic tendencies who works for D-Buggers.org in a single episode of TOME. He is an illusionist who can transform into a bird and disguise himself as any player he wishes. He is also very good at imitating the copied player's voice. Ravenfreak was given the anti-virus and instructed to attach it to Flamegirl, which he did successfully.

Ravenfreak was based on a forum spammer in TV Tropes who was obsessed with the Disney Channel sitcom, That's So Raven, which led to Niosi making the character gender-ambitious. Ravenfreak was also praised for Lucien Dodge's portrayl of the character as he was able to voice match Blake Swift, who voiced Alpha, when his character was disguised as Alpha. This technique actually confused Swift in which he asked Niosi if he did the lines himself.

Neomutant

Original TTA Incarnation: Neomutant

Location: California, US

Class: Fighter

Power: Lightning

Voice: Chris Zito (TTA), Chris Guerrero (TOME)

Neomutant is a hacker first seen in Episode 7, hired by Tigerlilly to test the Antivirus's efficiency after it was implanted on its carrier. He is in the Fighter class and has the power of electricity. He was in reality first hired by Rubirules to encode the Antivirus well before Kizuna thought of hiring him, and it was he who proposed Flamegirl as the carrier because of his unsatisfied, lingering feelings for her, that would fuel the program and make it powerful enough, providing him with a revenge when she would suffer the effects of the Dragon Bug's creation.

Although he is a hacker, he seems to only be in it to pursue Flamegirl and make sure Alpha doesn't hurt her, due to his one-sided affection for her. At one point, he comments, "To think this child was my competition," meaning that he might also be jealous of Alpha's affections.

He is described by Chris Niosi to have a low self-esteem, as well as being highly charismatic. It is possible that he is like this only to cover up his misplaced chivalry.

In reality, all of his character traits and possible motives since his apparition only are a cover-up for the deep hatred he harbors for his former love. Well-aware of Rubirules' plan - sacrificing her to obtain the energy necessary to control SOFDTI - he acts as though he still loved her and even held a sense of honor and justice in Episode 13, only to lure her into getting trapped inside TOME's moon. Neomutant is consequently extremely vicious and manipulative, something only revealed in Episode 15.

Neomutant's design was based off of Deoxys from Pokemon. Hans van Harken was the original voice idea for the character but due to his unavailability, was given to Chris Guerrero instead.

Dustbunny

Original TTA Incarnation: Dustbunny

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Animalistic

Power: Smoke

Voice: Maria Vu (TTA), Cristina Vee (TOME)

Dustbunny is a minor hacker who appears during the Gemini Tournament as Neomutant's partner. She is tasked with stealing Asterob's shield in an effort to contain the Forbidden Power. The heist is successful, but ultimately the shield is unable to completely absorb the Forbidden Power and the plan backfires. Zetto then appears and defeats Dustbunny with his Breaker Beam. She has not been seen since.

Dustbunny was based on a spammer user in TV Tomes and her powers were derived from Captain Smoker from One Piece.

Odboll

Original TTA Incarnation: Sojojo

Location: Unknown, US

Class: Mechanical

Power: Prison Power

Voice: Project Shadow 99 (TTA), Ben Diskin (TOME)

Odboll is the first new hacker introduced in season 2 of TOME. He appears briefly at the beginning of Episode 11 causing havoc in ;Sanctuary. However, Alpha and his friends show up and stall Odboll until the moderators arrive, banning him. Odboll appears again briefly in Episode 13 before showing up in Episode 14 as the Moon's security force, using his dungeon control powers to manipulate the structures within D-Buggers' base. He is defeated by Flamegirl's novice programming skills.

Odboll is extremely hyperactive and vulgar. He drops major curses virtually every sentence and has so far said nothing that wasn't an insult. In contrast with Doubling and Splat, none of Odboll's curses are censored in audio or text.

Odboll was based on then-11 year old TV Tome spammer from Canada named Simon Makil, who is currently in good terms with Niosi. Unlike TOME, Sojojo's power was to create soldiers, although that trait might have been morphed to his ability to create the binary creatures that attacked Nylocke and Flamegirl.

Power: Snow

Voice: Apphia Yu

Whyti is a minor character in Tome, a Spellcaster with the power of snow. She is rather shy and likes to spend time with her friends, Flamegirl and Saturndiva.

The two partner up to battle Demonking, her even saying "Whoosh" like Nylocke does when he dashes. When they are blinded by mist, Whyti yells to Nylocke to be a hero. After Nylocke redempts Demonking, she says that his words were beautiful.

Whyti's name is derived from Emma Frost, a user in TV TOME whose real name is so similar to the X-Men character of the same name that it ended up being her screenname.

Sniperwheel

Original TTA Incarnation: Sniperwave

Location: New York, US

Class: Mechanical

Power: Arsenal

Voice: Jon Jafari, Jeremy Harrington (understudy)

Sniperwheel is a minor character in TOME, of the Mechanical class with an arsenal of weapons as his power. Sniperwheel can come across as being very competitive and perhaps a bit arrogant, challenging any player to try and fight him when he is first introduced in Episode 2. He's displayed as being extremely charismatic and talkative. In combat, he tends to rely on rapid use of his Headcannon.

Sniperwheel was based on a former TV Tome member named SEARCHMAN.EXE. Sniperwheel gained a cult following due to Jon Jafari's involvement in the character. For his second appearance, skeptical on Jafari's availability, Niosi had the character voiced by a replacement. After re-encountering Jafari in New York, Jon agreed to reprise his role and voice-matched the delivery of Harrington's recording.

Voice: Micah Solusod

Archy is a minor character in TOME, a Fighter with the power of magical archery. He acts as Kirbopher's partner in the Gemini Tournament.

Class: Animalistic

Class: Animalistic

Power: Tyrannosaurus

Serpentine

Original TTA Incarnation: Simdragon

Location: Unknown, UK

Class: Animalistic

Power: Mighty Claws

Voice: JVtheWanderer (TTA), Steven M. Kelley impersonating Tim Curry (TOME)

Serpentine is a minor character in TOME who serves as Nylocke's evil role-playing rival. Although possessing mighty claws, he prefers to drain Nylocke's morale through dramatic monologues. He wishes to become a hacker so that he may conquer TOME for himself.

Before even the shorts where Serpentine is first introduced, he was a role-player who idolized Nylocke and wanted to be his squire. But because he wasn't "creative at being a ye olde warrior", he ignored him. As a form of revenge, Serpentine's user tried to make a new character that looked exactly like Nylocke like an evil counterpart, but the system - actually Rubirules - rejected the design (because there would be confusion over which Nylocke model was part of the Dragon Bug and which was not). Consequently, he tweaked Nylocke's appearance, and it became his own.

Serpentine was based on a 40-year old user Mike Luckas discovered in TV Tome. He was also different than his TOME counterpart. Simdragon was originally depicted as second in command for the hacker boss and was irrelevant to the storyline. He was actually forgotten for a while when the TOME reboot was in development. Serpentine was also praised for Kelley's portrayal of the character as it influenced others to think that Niosi had the real Tim Curry involved as the character.
