Milo: The main character. A little boy with a quick tongue. He feels like everything he does is a waste of time. He doesnt have much spunk, but with the help of his new friends, he discovers valuable secrets on staying busy and having fun. He's the hero, the one remembered. Blond and bouncy. An average boy look. Questions everything.
Tock: Tock is a watchdog. Literally. He/She has a clock on their stomach. Tock is a touchy, sensitive character who feels defensive over everything involved with him/her. Tock tends to side with Milo, though they ddint get off to a great start in the beginning. You could call Tock sensible. He/She always seems to know what to do and when to do it.
The Humbug: The Humbug is an..interesting character. Full of himself, boastful, loud and obnoxious...This bug is not someone you can easily get along with! He claims to have ties with the king, and thats how he landed his job in escorting Milo through Wisdom in search of the Princesses. Yet, he says sensible things (even though they are sometimes lies) and tends to do things for the greater good.
King Azaz: The king of Dictionopolis, city of words. Hates the Mathemagician. He thinks words are better, and shall never get along with his brother. Very touchy on what he thinks is right.
The Mathemagician: King of Digitopolis, city of numbers. The same as Azaz, basically. Brotherly feud. Hates words and everything about them. Thinks he is right.
Princesses Rhyme and Reason: The damsels in distress. They're locked in the Castle in the Air by the kings, because they could not decide which was better, numbers or words. The Land of Wisdom has been in disarray since they were imprissioned. Sensible ladies, very refined and thoughtful.
The rest are all small characters. You have the Lethargarians who are slow and lethargic, not doing much with their lives.
The Word Merchants live in Dictionopolis and live in the marketplace. They try to sell their goods to new comers
The King's Men, such as the Count of Connotation and The Duke of Definition (etc, there are five of them) are well dressed lads. They temd to be clumsy, though they speak so highly of themselves. Always talk in synonyms with eachother.
The Number Miners work in the number mine with the Mathemagician, mining out numbers to use.
The Dodecahedrian is a man with several sides of faces. He tends to be confused and changes his mood a lot
The Demons try to tempt Milo away from his goal to save the princesses. They come in an assortment of different personality types.
Etc, etc. You'll see the rest.
