Characters

Characters are playable heroes and can be controlled by the player in-game.
There are currently 32 playable characters, in which 5 of them are Legendary Heroes.
Different characters have a unique set of stats, skills and starter weapons (see table below). Some characters can be purchased using in-game gems, while others can only be acquired by purchasing them with real money.
The player can select a character by tapping on them in the Living Room after starting a game. Each character has their own set of skins, which are obtainable through different methods.

== Characters as NPCs ==
Each character has something to say when the player interacts with them.
They also have normal properties like the player; such as can be affected with Burn, healed and shielded by the Priestess, etc. Most of these would just occur in the Living Room, however.
If the player has unlocked other characters, a character different from the player's (different from all in Multiplayer mode) may also appear at the starting room of each floor, as an NPC during a run (except Legendary Heroes). Talking to that character will cause something to happen, depending on the character the player is talking to. Some may even follow the player and attack enemies for the rest of the current floor.
* All character NPCs (except legendary characters) are found in the upper left area of the first room in every level, next to the place where Vending Machines would appear, but cannot be found in Boss Rush Mode.
* In a past version, locked characters could also appear in this fashion. However, talking to a locked character would only show a message telling that the player needs to unlock it first.
** This still occurs in Multiplayer if the character is not unlocked for any player.
* A character will use the last skin the player played them with, both in the Living Room and as NPCs during a run.
* When a character follows the player, they work like standard followers and don't use their special skills or pick up weapons.
== Character List ==
The values in the table for health, armor and energy are initial stats (with the upgraded stats in brackets next to them).
