=== Heroes ===
* Charles Rembrandt (voiced by Jonathan Potts) - The brave and bold hero of the series and is looking for the magic diamond crystals, along with the help of his friends.
* David 'Dave' Funnie (voiced by Frank Welker) - The short, young and faithful comic relief sidekick to Charles. He is willing to become a hero someday and is one of the only characters to appear as lighter and comical than the rest of the characters. He has the ability to act like a cartoon, mostly Looney Tunes and classic Paramount shorts from the 40s to the early 50s, and sometimes calls his big friend, "Chuck" and Rihanna by "Princess". His catchphrase is "Well, excuuuuuuuuuse me, princess!" a catchphrase later recycled for DiC's The Legend of Zelda cartoon.
* Rihanna Blake (voiced by Katey Sagal) - The rebellious heroine of the series. She helps the main hero fight demons and dragons, but sometimes the sidekick would get on her nerves.
