== Captain Whiskers ==
Captain Whiskers, also known as the Grumpy Man or Grumpy Voice, was an unknown character speaking from a locked house in Divinia. After Divinia was being rampaged by a major storm, he used a ship to sail away and escape, crashing onto Diamond Beach after being tricked by a siren.

He sometimes visits Frostbite on some evenings and orders strawberry ice cream in a cup, leaving generous tips. He has two cats, Jiji and Momo.

== Frostbite employees ==
The ice cream shop in Diamond Beach, Frostbite, has multiple employee NPCs as part of the secret lighthouse questline, though only one can be talked to outside of it. ( The employees working off can't be seen or talked to before and after the quest. )

=== Darla ===
Darla is the owner of Frostbite, and is visible at all times. She can be interacted with to order ice cream, and also has to be talked to in part of the secret lighthouse questline.
Originally, when Frostbite was first opened, it was not popular, hurting Darla's confidence. After Captain Whiskers visited and enjoyed the ice cream, it gave her the inspiration to continue developing her shop and to hire more employees.
=== Katie ===
Katie is one of the employees at Frostbite that works later hours on certain days. They can only be met and interacted with during part of the secret lighthouse questline, at the top of the hill near the skytram station on the picnic basket, where they incorrectly believe the old man that visits in the evenings orders cotton candy ice cream in a cone.
=== Viv === 
Viv (also Vivienne or Vivianne - both spellings are used) is one of the employees at Frostbite that works later hours on certain days. They can only be met and interacted with during part of the secret lighthouse questline, standing near HotHead, where they incorrectly believe the old man that visits in the evenings orders mint ice cream in a cone.
=== Luke ===
Luke is one of the employees at Frostbite that works later hours on certain days. They can only be met and interacted with during part of the secret lighthouse questline, sitting on the jetski docks, where they correctly recall the old man that visits in the evenings orders strawberry ice cream in a cup.
== Dominic==
Dominic is the lifeguard at the new Diamond Beach. Interacting with him starts a quest to clean up trash, which when completed rewards the Swimmer Flippers.

Barbie had one version of Violethttps://clips.twitch.tv/DepressedSlipperySquirrelKippa-WH__EgKjpr-aAh0z while ReddieTheTeddy made another version,https://clips.twitch.tv/FilthySullenElephantNononoCat-0OkoUjjCxNgSA86G which is used in the Easter update.

== Archie ==
Archie was introduced on October 23, 2021 in Blackwood Manor as part of part 2 of the Halloween 2021 event. They serve the purpose of explaining the ghost hunting tutorial to players, but could also have been interacted with for some story context.
According to Archie, they were born over twenty years ago and grew up in Wickery Cliffs, but later left the town. However, later in life, they fell asleep on a train and woke up at Wickery Station. They were looking into researching the area, but were led into Blackwood Manor, where they now try to learn about the ghosts there. They are nonbinary, but to what specification is intended to be up to the player.https://twitter.com/stixxntricks/status/1452095204853534724 
After the Halloween 2021 event, stixxntricks released more dialogue about Archie that went unused in the event.https://twitter.com/stixxntricks/status/1461723919354937351 - https://justpaste.it/9jih6 In this dialogue, Archie's full name is Archibald, and they are a ghost researcher, though are separately interested in the concept of death and the science of the unnatural. The technical hub in Blackwood Manor is revealed to be their self-built lab, but they have not progressed far in their research as they are afraid of ghosts. They do not have any friends, suggesting that their dialogue indicating they wish to talk to the player more that was added into the game may indicate they were looking to befriend the player.
==Upperclassman Poppy==
Upperclassman Poppy, better known as Poppy, is an NPC introduced following the phase-by-phase Summer 2023 release of Royale High Campus 3. She works as an upperclassman volunteer at the Royale High Enrollment Desk at the Main Office. She graciously welcomes the player to the new school, and introduces them to the mechanics of the game, specifically the various features on the interface, as well as how to navigate the campus (and life). She also hands the player their Student ID and their respective dorm key, along with giving the player a free level-up after talking about levels. Past the introductory dialogue, she serves as a help-desk school nurse, giving the player an ice-pack if they feel unwell.
Poppy is dedicated to her job, and has a hyperactive, bubbly personality, and is very warm and friendly to the player. Her dialogue also reveals her peculiar obsession with scents, like sniffing Student ID cards.
Poppy is also the first-ever Royale High NPC who actually has a voice-actor, and facial animation, aside from body animation. She is also on the teleportation map, on the icon representing the Main Office.
