Barnaby B. Beagle- is a jokester and street smart puppet dog. Barnaby left his life on the farm to move to Home, of which he joked as being “The Big City.” Illustrated books noted he was an orphaned puppy that was adopted by "The Chicken that Crossed the Road", (comedically named Miss Beagle) which proved as motivation to be an entertainer. He enjoys telling jokes and doing circus tricks like juggling and balancing balls on his nose. He is best friends with Wally. Barnaby had to teach Wally how to laugh, as in the past he could not. One of Barnaby and Wally’s favorite activities is to go and get hot dogs with Howdy. He is seemingly overweight, 7 foot, and blue with red yellow and dark blue spots. He wears a red orange yellow and blue vest with a red top hat.

Julie Joyful- is a cheerful and energetic Rainbow Monster that was said to have come from deep within the forest that surrounded the outskirts of Home. She lived with her family in a cave but sought out a life of her own and moved away. She enjoys playing crazy games that are made up like “bowling ball hula hoop croquet.” She is best friends with Frank Frankly. Julie often listens to Frank’s long tangents about bugs and specific topics and helps him on his insect expeditions. Julie loved to play “Business Woman in the Big City”, a game where she was an independent (and chaotic) business woman for only a short period of time. Julie is friends with Wally, but doesn’t like playing games with him because he is too easy to beat. She enjoys hugging Wally. She is around 3 foot and has orange and yellow horns that can grow in size, pink skin, blonde hair that is teased into a beehive hairstyle, and wears a light red dress with green and blue stockings and white Mary janes.

Eddie Dear- is a reliable, kind, and determined mailman, being the only one. Despite being a bit of a clumsy and forgetful fellow, Eddie loves his job and always manages to deliver everyone’s mail right on time. He is also pretty talkative and even tempered, though his limits are pushed when frustrated. He always makes sure to help as much as he can. Eddie forgets his hometown, a running joke being that he often says he is from a made up town. He enjoys arts and crafts. Eddie was good at gardening and helped Frank with his plants often. Frank and Eddie have been implied to be in a romantic relationship. He stands at 4 feet tall and has orange felt skin with red hair. He had a stocky build and an oblong face with a yellow nose and dark, droopy eyes. Wears his mailman uniform and his mail bag.

Poppy Partridge- is a fearful, worrisome but caring bird puppet. She enjoys baking and knitting. She goes along with most things and doesn’t speak up for herself much. She was the most fretful of the neighbors, always worried about everything to the point that she never left her house. Poppy found comfort on her home and didn't want to leave, preferring people to visit her instead and making Howdy bring her groceries to her place. However, she was very grateful about her friends and how much they cared for her. Frank visited Poppy often. He helped Poppy in the kitchen because he was very organized, followed the recipe perfectly and knew how to use the oven for her. She stands at 8 foot and has rainbow feathers. Her feet are orange and Webbed.

Frank Frankly- is a serious and grumpy gray puppet that enjoys having everything neat and tidy. He is organized and the most logical in the neighborhood. He loves reading, gardening, and bugs. Whenever any neighbors have a bug problem, he is the one to call! He is best friends with Julie Joyful, Frank being the one to remember all the rules in her crazy games and put up with her wild behavior. Frank never gave up during games and tried too hard to win, even when it was impossible for him to do so. Julie loved playing with Frank because of this, since she liked challenges. Frank didn't seem to stand Barnaby, and found him and his puns annoying. He usually insulted Barnaby and called him things like "stinky". Frank stands at 5 feet and has gray skin, a yellow long nose, and black combed hair. He has different bow ties for specific occasions. Despite his no nonsense demeanor, he is kind.

Sally Starlet- is an extravagant and rambunctious star shaped puppet. Sally is often focused on aspects of the theatre, such as acting or singing, which she felt she is more than well-versed at from being a star. She is really proud and confident, even when things didn't go as planned, declaring that failing something was her original intention despite actually not being the case. She is also really dramatic, expressive and theatrical with everything. Sally is around 3 feet tall and has yellow skin with a stat shaped head. She wore a long-sleeve shirt patterned with red, orange, yellow, green, and blue checks, and white cuffs. Over this, she wore a blue overall dress with three pockets.

Howdy Pillar- is a friendly and quick witted caterpillar puppet that is the owner of the neighborhood bodega. Howdy has an easy laugh. His bodega was named Howdy’s Place and alternatively known as a “Bugdega” by Barnaby, of which he is their most loyal customer. Howdy was said to have originated from an apple core in a tree alongside his plentiful brothers and sisters, many of whom Howdy would offhandedly mention a plethora of by name. Howdy would often exchange goods for funny jokes, silly observations, one-dollar ideas, and unique gadgets. Noted formerly as being his favorite customer, Barnaby would often appear regularly at Howdy’s Place. He would supply Howdy with a daily laugh in exchange for a hot dog. Howdy was also the only character that found Barnaby's jokes funny and laughed genuinely at them. Howdy just cries when someone steals from him. He had four arms and legs, green fleece skin, and blue hair styled into a pompadour. He stands at 7 feet tall. He has four arms and legs, green fleece skin, and blue hair styled into a pompadour and wears a scalloped orange gradient apron adorned with a name badge.

Home- is Wally’s House. It is red and its front windows act as eyes. Home communicates with onomatopoeias like “squeak, crash, bang, creak, etc.” Home can hug by squeezing someone inbetween the door and the door frame.
