Spelunky Family

The Spelunky Family are the titular main protagonists of the Spelunky roguelike platformer series. Guy Spelunky is the protagonist of the first game as well as its HD remake Spelunky HD. His daughter Ana Spelunky is the protagonist of Spelunky 2, in which she is on a quest to find her parents on the Moon. Tina Flan is the wife of Guy Spelunky, who is also introduced in Spelunky 2. The family also owns a pet dog named Monty, a pug adopted by Tina, who helps Ana on her quest to find her parents.
==Background==
Prior to Spelunky 2, the main character's personal life was shrouded in mystery. Not even his name was confirmed, with him having the names Spelunky Guy and The Spelunker because of this. But before meeting and falling in love with Tina, Guy was implied to have had a lost love in some of the many possible opening narration sequences. Out of many possible endings, the sequel reveals that canonically, Guy Spelunky rescued the Spelunker known as Hardhat, who defeated King Yama with an eggplant, which is a reference to how Bananasaurus_Rex used her and was the first known person to discover the true purpose of the Eggplant. The two later became a married couple, and became a happy nuclear family with their daughter Ana and family dog Monty. 
Five years after Ana was born, Guy began to see hallucinations of Olmec when looking at the Moon, and took this as a call for adventure. He enlisted the help of Colin Northward to build a spaceship that could take him and his wife to the Moon. They did not bring Ana, fearing for her safety and concerned about her education, but later regret this after they become lost there. Despite their predicament, Guy writes that they were enjoying their time on the Moon. Several years later, Ana ventures to the moon, either as a young adult or a teenager, determined to find her parents, and following her parents footsteps as a hero (or a villain) along the way. 
==Personality==
In spite of their cruel personalities in gameplay, the actual personalities of the Spelunky protagonists are very nice. Nothing ever references the crimes they may have committed while adventuring. However, outside of their known love for each other, they are all player avatars with little personality beyond their passion for adventure and aforementioned family bond. Their cruelty to others is a factor for the player to decide, although in gameplay, their personality tends to be unavoidably pragmatic, throwing damsels across levels and even using them as shields. All that is shown is that they are a happy family of intrepid adventurers. 
==Monty the Pug==
Monty is shown to be a very loving dog, who loves to lick, cuddle, and play, and is apparently obedient enough to look at a camera unlike most dogs. While he does help Ana in her adventure, he frequently plays the role of a damsel, and must repeatedly be rescued by Ana. After Ana rescues him, Monty will support Ana, granting her an additional HP point in game, and healing her if she is afflicted by any ailment.
