Quest:Ruby Quest/Characters
WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS.
A complete list of all the characters in Ruby Quest. They may appear furry, but it is uncertain whether this is just so Weaver can differentiate them from each other quickly, or as a tip off to their Animal Crossing namesakes. It is likely for both reasons.
Contrary to what some people may say, no one's age has ever been mentioned ever.

Ruby
Ruby is the main character of Ruby Quest. Obviously. Her thoughts consist of the scrambled suggestions of the /tg/ community, and as such, she is both incredibly brilliant and surprisingly stupid. She is handling most of the monstrous happenings rather well, and has been declared a badass as a result. However, her psyche is starting to be strained as the world around her gets stranger and stranger. Ruby is known for having a GIRLISH FIGURE, but is flat as a board. She has a third eye which sometimes appears and according to notes found was admitted to the facility willingly suffering from blindness. These notes also claim that she was killed in an "accident".
Because she is effectively our character, Ruby has been described as the PC to Weaver's DM. This makes the game very engaging, and it has become quite popular as a result. The largest implication of this is that /tg/ is now a herbivorous bunny girl. No-one has yet objected to this.
Ruby is actually quite a good fighter, and uses a Hook like no one's business. We no longer possess the hook, but wish we did. We feel safer when Ruby is a capable Hooker. Besides a hook, Ruby is also well versed with scalpels - and bare hands, for that matter: She doesn't hesitate to punch a cripple with a prickly fist.
There is some controversy over whether or not Ruby is left-handed or ambidextrous. Most fights she uses her left, but she also punched Filbert with her right.

Tom
Tom is Ruby's only friend in this place. He is a gentleman, strong and silent, but more than willing to offer information and suggestions about things he knows. He was initially detached towards Ruby, but after the two have repeatedly saved each others' lives, it seems he has grown quite a liking towards her. Unfortunately, it seems Ruby doesn't feel NOW is the time to act on any romantic intentions...
He is well known for his MANLY PHYSIQUE, and is needed for most anything that requires strength to accomplish. Tom also has a, possibly, vestigial arms which he normally keeps concealed and lost one of his eyes during the adventure.

Red
Red is was a creepy motherfucker. He carries a cane with him, and is not too fond of personal questions. He was a former employee of the facility but was detained in locker #6. He is convinced that he is not trapped like the others, and that he is where he is entirely by his own choice. He has a very morbid sense of humor.

Ace
Ace is a bird who appears to work at the facility. Also incorrectly referred to as "spade" due to the shirt he occasionally wears and how he signs his name. He was responsible for many of the notes found and finding Ruby after red attacked her. He appears abnormally tough surviving a bomb attack, crowbar attack and surviving a large spear piercing his chest and presumably is the person who cleans up the facility.

Filbert
Signed as "F" on medical notes, Filbert is the head doctor of the facility. He claims to be the only one uninfected, but evidence to the contrary suggests otherwise... He seems to be delusional and/or paranoid. He is missing his right hand, and appears to be haggard and worn. He is actually willing to speak and knows important information, unlike most others we have met. However, he seems to be very selfish, and is looking out for himself first and foremost. His hand shows visible mutations after Ruby flees his room. Shortly after he appears on the intercom with mutations now visible in his face.
Dr. S
As yet unknown.
Stitches
Stitches is a creature that was once a bear, and when first encountered was a pile of horrible organs and a spine. With the help of Tom, it was temporarily slain using the Z Hatch. later encountered with no discerning animal features, he appears to have been taken apart and stitched back together. He was found nailed to a wall, and he was still alive and able to speak, in spite of his appearance. He also seems to have sent Ruby to a dream world, where impossible things may happen that the world has never seen before. He disappeared but reappeared in part 5 where he met Ruby in a closet. He seemed confused and upset upon hearing Ruby's name, screeching "How do I know you?" before staring at his clawed hands and running off, afraid of hurting Ruby.

Hound Zombie
The Hound Zombie is also referred to as the Hook Zombie, the Plant Zombie and Bellsprout, based on its form. This horrible creature came through a broken mirror, and was killed with the power of Ruby's mean left hook, the purple vat of acid, and an electrical panel. The end boss of Part 2.

The Dummy
The Dummy, is a leather bound scarecrow on a rotating pivot that stares at us no matter where we are. It is found in Ruby's Room, and the room was named the Dummy Room because of him. We have tried to open it repeatedly, but the leather of its skin is very hard. Its eyes glow red, and when poked, they made a squishing sound. Something is inside that dummy. As of Part 6, he is bloodied and missing from his frame.
