List of The Incredible World of Riddles characters

This is a list of characters who appear in the Incredible World of Riddles media franchise.

Kacie
Kacie, the main protagonist of the franchise, is a selfless, caring, adventurous and headstrong but brown-haired girl who looks after Riddle World, typically using a magical wand, the Crimson Sceptre, which she was given by Mr. Riddles. After discovering the Riddle World, she decided to put it in her hands to protect it from danger and to keep its existence a secret. As a result, when somebody is in danger, Kacie is normally the first one to react. In spite of her heroic and friendly nature, she is somewhat clumsy and prone to slapstick.

Kacie is very athletic and has good reflexes, being able to fight off villainous creatures even when the Crimson Sceptre is unavailable. She is also a very big eater, and often cites chocolate, french fries and grape cola as her favourite food and drinks. She wears a red dress, and as such is often associated with the colour red in marketing. She is voiced by the franchise's creator Ashley Maverick - some sources compare Kacie to a self-insert on Maverick's end.

Tenet
Tenet is Kacie's best friend, and often plays the secondary role. A timid, effeminate and somewhat clingy blonde-haired boy, he often plays the role as the "male damsel in distress" who Kacie has to rescue, although later installments in the franchise showcase him overcoming his fears. Occasionally he is equipped with a magical paintbrush which can draw objects and bring them to life and also draw doors but is not as powerful as the Crimson Sceptre. He wears a blue blazer (which is always unfastened) with a white midsleeved top and grey shorts. Tenet is voiced by Melissa Emery.

Paddy
Paddy is Kacie's curious and friendly friend who appears to be the smartest of the four main characters. He often likes to spend time with the residents of Riddle Central, although he often ends up having to put up with their clumsy and simple-minded antics. Paddy also enjoys reading, and seems to enjoy putting on and seeing plays and other demonstrations. He is also hard to fool, generally being the only one to detect something suspicious. He wears a black blazer with a grey top and navy blue shorts. He has a belt bag attached to his shorts which he never carries anything in, though upon entering Riddle World it suddenly gets filled with random items and becomes "bottomless".

Paddy is voiced by Avoc Westwind, though he shared the role with Xya Leeds in the 2004 film Tenet's Time and Zev Bakker in the 2021 film The Incredible World of Riddles.

Onita
Onita is Kacie's laid-back, sarcastic and tomboyish friend who prefers to not take life too seriously. She is Paddy's best friend, although it takes him a while to warm up to her. Onita prefers to see the simple and humorous side of life, is generally lazy and likes to tease others. However, she will act more seriously when the time calls for it. On one occasional she encounters a magical rod (which she calls the "Magic Candle") which she uses to grant herself wishes. She wears a black dress with a pink T-shirt. Onita is voiced by Charlie Karma.

Mr. Riddles
Mr. Riddles is the de facto ruler of Riddle World (although he seems to have little control of the planet outside of the Riddle Central). Despite being billed as a main character, he has a fairly minor role in the franchise. He is fairly naive and does not know how to handle stress well, though he is friendly with the locals. He lives in the Riddle Castle, a large medieval-style castle with some contemporary design layers. Mr. Riddles' origins are unknown. He supposedly stumbled upon Riddle World by accident after finding a Riddle Gem and was unable to go back home after losing it. Eventually, he was made the de facto ruler after defeating the notorious Diamond King.

Mr. Riddles is voiced by Edward Reizer. Because of the franchise's popularity, Reizer ended up adapting a stage name, Tone Riddles, which he based off the character.

Diomo
Diomo is part of the glowup species, a group of legless ghost-like creatures. He is Mr. Riddles' assistant and arguably the planet's actual ruler. One of the more down-to-Earth residents of the planet, Diomo is old and not very active but is wise, optimistic and open-minded, thus he is usually the one Kacie and the others go to for advice. It is implied that he is awake for twice as long as everyone else but also has to sleep for twice as long - when asleep it is completely impossible to wake him up. Outside of his role as Mr. Riddles' assistant, he enjoys playing golf, although he plays with slightly different rules compared to how the game is usually played on Earth. He is voiced by Harlow Morrison.

Flowral
"Hoo hoo hoo! Did you hear the news?"

- One of Flowral's catchphrases.

Flowral is a mysterious clown head creature whose mouth does not move when he is talking. He is very mysterious, and nobody knows where he actually lives, being able to appear and disappear out of nowhere when nobody is looking. In spite of this, he has a very social life and likes to spend his time in the Riddle Central, often attending events and being the one to announce any important news. He is often seen with a smile all the time, though his expression will change on very rare occasions. In some episodes of the television series and the video games, he regularly acts as Kacie's guide and assistant, where he showcases a lot of knowledge on the other characters and locations. Flowral is voiced by Bruno Leon Vidal.

Mr. Nether
Mr. Nether is a grey humanoid creature who lives in Riddle World. Notable for his black suit, big sunglasses, robotic speaking pattern and almost always having his hands behind his back, he is a high-profile resident of the Riddle Central, even if he isn't a very talkative person. Mr. Nether appears to be clueless and simple-minded but is very cunning and daring when the moment calls for it. Although he is friendly and loyal to others, he can get also get competitive and puts up a fair but difficult fight.

Chica
Chica is a white humanoid cardboard creature with a design resembling a rag doll. Often serving as the franchise's comic relief, she is known for her sudden physical jerks and verbal tics (generally making chicken and 'cuckoo' sounds, hence her name) and her odd, impuslive and in-your-face behaviour. Although good friends with Flowral and Mr. Nether, she seems to have difficulty bonding with others who are uncomfortable with her behaviour, and has a low self-esteem as a result. Chica appears to be able to resist a lot of pain, on one occasion braking into pieces yet only feeling minimal pain. In later installments in the franchise, she often tries to help others but usually ends up in slapstick, even moreso than Kacie. She has black hair and wears a brown dress, jelly shoes and an Alice band.

Chica was voiced by Chloe Wallace in her first two appearances before Olivia Emery took over the role from 1991 to 2004. In the 2021 film, she was voiced by Josephine Bell.

Yowie
Yowie is a human-sized brown crow who wears a black hat and blue shorts, and speaks in an Australian accent. He is the cynical "janitor" of Riddle World, generally seen carrying a rake, cleaning Riddle Central and complaining about how much he hates his job. It is implied that he is not treated well by the other residents of Riddle World barring Chica and Mr. Nether. Yowie plays the role as the main antagonist of the special A Christmas Riddle where he uses magic to brainwash the residents, although he eventually redeems himself and a talking with Paddy. He later becomes a recurring ally of Kacie and company, and is able to fly them to out-of-reach places.

Yowie was voiced by Harlow Morrison in the 1989 film, although he was voiced by Oliver Jones in all of his other appearances.
