Characters
The Best Friends For Life
- Amethyst Van Der Troll: Amethyst is a sweet young teenage troll filled with innocence and hope. She'll do anything to keep her friends happy and while she might not be the most confident troll out there, you can always count on her to come through for someone in need.
- Ruby Trollman: Considers herself Leader of the Best Friends For Life, Ruby is a bossy, self-centered, materialistic, and overall a very outspoken troll who does what she pleases. Despite all this, her heart is in the right place and she will never let anyone push her friends around and is always there to defend them. Although she may not like it, and it may take her some time, she will always apologize in the end when she makes a mistake.
- Sapphire Trollzawa: Sapphire is a little bit shy and a whole lot of smarts. She believes in brains over brawns and she can often be found with her nose in a book. She's ambitious when she sets her mind to a goal and loves to study and tinker with gadgets and doodads. The only subject at school she has trouble with is boys, but luckily her friends are there to help her with that.
- Topaz Trollhopper: Topaz is far from the brightest needle in the haystack, but she makes up for it with her extra helping of sweetness and incredible fashion sense. Always looking for a good time, Topaz will usually be unaware of a problem she's in until it's too late. Although she can be considered ditzy, in the end she'll always do the right thing and help out her friends.
- Onyx Von Trollenberg: The realist of the group, she tends to be the most level-headed of the girls and isn't afraid to tell it like it is. Despite her goth fashion sense, she cares very deeply for her friends and will always stand up for them and never let them down. She hates people who go back on their word and will often point out another person's lie. Deep down, she really is a sweet and loveable girl.
The Bad Guys
- Simon the Gremlin: Simon is an evil gremlin boy who was sealed away by five ancient and powerful trollz thousands of years ago when he tried to take over the world. After Snarf tricked the Best Friends For Life into releasing him, he now lives in present day Trollzopolis scheming and planning on new ways to take over the modern world and get revenge on the girls who oppose him.
