Characters / Earthcraft 3

A page for describing the characters in Earthcraft 3.

Dampy
Dampy is set on a journey to recover his stealed Z Cards from The Marked Guy. He must travel through his hideout to recover Jigsaw Pieces to go on deeper into his lair.
 * Acrofatic: He´s definitely pudgier than any Earthcraft protagonists up to this game, and that doesn´t stop him from running and jumping around and kick some monster butt.
 * Admiring The Abomination: He is very impressed by The Lava-Rock King.
 * All-Loving Hero: He´s willing to help everybody, even people who´s been mean to him like Gaucho.
 * Apologizes A Lot: Something Crocky and Gaither find annoying.
 * Butt-Monkey: To an extent, some characters call him out on some things, but never in an bullying way.
 * Combat Medic: He can learn a move later in the game that can heal him if an enemy touches him, though it´s only one-use.
 * Fiery Redhead: Not quite redhead in-game, but artworks depict him as such.
 * He Who Fights Monsters: Most enemies in the game are monsters.
 * Nice Guy: Helps everyone when needed.
 * The One Who Wears Shoes: The One Who Wears Socks, actually. He is the only Earthcraft protagonist to visibly wear socks.
 * Obfuscating Stupidity: A more innocent example, but he can be this depending of the situation, though, unlike most examples of this trope, he isnt really much of sheer stupidity but more from naivete and beign Innocently Insensitive.

Crocky
A toy crocodile who helps you on the game. He is a little clumsy but sweet-hearted.
 * Butt-Monkey: Just looking at him can get you the idea. Several commercials depicted him as this, and some Idle and Death Animations in-game too.
 * Cute Little Fangs: Has some.
 * Disability Superpower: Kind of...he has a leakage of air on his belly and learns to push enemies this way, making combats easier.
 * Distressed Dude: To get him to join your team, you must first release him from under a frying pan.
 * Handicapped Badass: Again, sort of, as his leakage can help in battles.
 * The Klutz: Implied to be this, the first time you see him he is trapped under a frying pan, and he is a bit gawky-looking with patches and stitches.
 * Lizard Folk: A living rubber crocodile toy,
 * Platforming Pocket Pal: Per tradition, acts as this to Dampy along with Gaither.

Gaither
Dampy´s dad´s bagpipes. Joins your team and monitors Dampy's health and helps him collect treasure with his pipes.
 * A Day In The Limelight: Some minigames are centered on him.
 * Animate Inanimate Object: Living bagpipes.
 * Bizarre Instrument: Oh yes...
 * Cloudcuckoolander: He´s somewhat absent-minded and wacky.
 * Force Field: Acts as this if you press Z + S, it consumes Pipe Oil and he needs that to create this.
 * Informed Species: More like Informed Instrument, he really doesn´t look that much like bagpipes.
 * Instrument Of Murder: He´s an antropomorphic bagpipes and is used to kick enemies´s butts.
 * The Last Of These Is Not Like The Others: The only Earthcraft character to date who is not a human or a Living Toy, but rather an animate antropomorphic instrument.
 * Life Meter: His flag color changes as Dampy gets damage, Red is full health, Green is medium, Blue is low and Yellow is minimum.
 * Platforming Pocket Pal: Acts as this to Dampy, along with Crocky.

Percheron
Dampy´s rubber bouncy horse. He helps you by riding him in some areas of the game to tackle dangerous surfaces.
 * Assist Character: He shows up in some parts of the levels that require pass through harmful surfaces like thorn bushes, ice, lava or floor spikes.
 * Dumb Muscle: So strong that not only is he indestructible, he'll destroy most mooks just by running over them, however, he controlls somewhat yanky and doesnt´s obey your commands instantly.
 * Informed Species: Justified since he is a toy bouncy horse, he´s more chubby-looking and small than a normal horse.
 * Nigh-Invulneravility: He's completely indestructible and can just plow through most enemies.
 * Power-Up Mount: Acts as this in his segments.
 * Stronger Than They Look: How is a rubber bouncy horse not destroyed by spikes, lava and many, many other strange substances he comes across while carrying three characters is anybody´s guess.
