Cosmo Toon is a brown cake resembling a chocolate Swiss roll. He has white frosting in a wavy pattern on the top of his head, combined with six star-shaped sprinkles in cyan, pink, and lime as freckles. He wears a white sleeveless hoodie with black drawstrings and a white hem. He wears striped socks the same color as his star-shaped sprinkles; these socks cover his legs completely. Cosmo has confirmed that the star-shaped sprinkles on his cheeks don't fall off, as they are part of his design, as he mentioned in a conversation with Glisten.
Cosmo from Dandy's World is a very cheerful, generous character with a passion for cooking. Personality Traits: Kind and Generous: He loves baking sweets and sharing food with all his friends. Inspiring: His attitude aims to motivate others to be generous. Very Close to Sprout: He spends a lot of time with Sprout, who is his best friend in the game.
Sprout Main is a strawberry who wears only a white scarf with thin pink stripes around his neck and draped over his back. He is usually depicted with seven simple mint-green leaves, three of which rest on his head, while two cover his forehead like bangs, and the last two fall over the back of his head. Sprout adds one more leaf to his front bangs, and he has a dark red blush complemented by three black freckles on each cheek, for a total of six freckles. His limbs are a deep red, lighter than his torso and head.
Sprout is a straightforward, overprotective, and pragmatic Toon, as shown in his Passive Ability, which is described as "overprotective." He often mentions Cosmo in his interactions, as Cosmo is his best friend, and they both share an interest in baking and cooking. However, unlike Cosmo, he doesn't fall for tricks as easily, as shown in his conversation with Gigi.

• Definition in the game: It is the operation directed by the character Dandy, in which he sends the "Toons" to the lower floors of the Gardenview Center facilities to extract a viscous and mysterious substance called Ichor.
• Purpose: Dandy collects this fluid for his own use —probably to power and maintain the abandoned facility or for his own hidden purposes—, also reusing the characters' bodies or materials in the process.
• Ichor as an element: In the game, Ichor is both the main currency for buying items, characters (Toons) and skins, and the dangerous substance that transforms normal Toons into monstrous and hostile versions known as Twisteds.
• Origin and creators: It was founded in the late 1980s (around 1988) by Arthur Walton and Delilah Keen through the company Gardenview Entertainment.
• The show: It functioned as an educational center and museum for children that housed the popular television program Dandy's World, starring intelligent and conscious animated characters known as Toons (created using a substance called Ichor).
• The closure and the tragedy: The complex closed permanently on June 29, 2002 after a series of security incidents, failed experiments with Ichor and a public meltdown during an exhibition due to exposure to this aerosol substance.

At first glance, Dandy seems to be a kind, responsible, and intelligent Toon, but he is also distrustful and hides dark secrets.

Dandy seems impatient or afraid of being ignored, losing his temper when you don't buy from him and eventually exploding. Although Dandy isn't evil, it has been hinted that he has taken questionable actions related to Operation Ichor.

However, it is subtly shown that he feels remorse for what he has done and is just as paranoid as the rest of the Toons about their current situation. Dandy remains silent and says nothing more than "..." when you buy from him, implying that he may feel remorse for revealing his twisted counterpart. He also subtly shows that he fears being ignored and losing his friendship with the other Toons, which is further hinted at in his dialogue during the second stage when you don't buy from him. Astronomical rendering. Twisted Dandy rendering.

It's theorized that Astro captured Dandy in his twisted form, based on Astro's acquisition requirements and Dandy's dialogue when purchasing Astro, as well as his dialogue with Pebble. (Rendering of Twisted Dandy)
When he buys Astro at the store, Dandy will say "...", which may imply that Astro knows exactly what happened and what Dandy did, all because he caught him during the Icor incident, but is afraid to talk to him about it because of that sinking feeling, although Dandy himself is afraid to do so because he thinks doing so would jeopardize their friendship.
It has many motifs inspired by outer space, astronomy, and magic.
Its name is a prefix used to describe stars, celestial bodies, and outer space in general.
Her face resembles the moon.
The flash of a camera makes it extremely difficult to get a good night's sleep, which explains his aversion to photography.
The fact that he has four arms (confirmed by Tisha and his official plushie), magical powers, and space motifs vaguely, though probably unintentionally, imply that he could be an alien.
His connection to Dandy could be a reference to extraterrestrials and their interest in Earth.
He can shine in the dark.
He possesses telekinesis and oneirokinesis (manipulation of dreams), two superpowers related to magic.

Dandy is a small humanoid with a flower-like appearance. His most distinctive features are his petals, six in total: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, arranged clockwise, with the red one at the top of his head. His face and torso are off-white, while his limbs and blush are mint green. When he experiences intense negative emotions, red spots appear in his eyes, similar to Twisteds.

Dandy, whose full name is Dandicus Dancifer, is the titular Toon and mascot of Dandy's World. He acts as a shopkeeper for items that can be purchased between rounds, Toons, and Gamepasses, and is a developer-exclusive playable character, although he can also be played in Role-Playing mode as a Toon and as Twisted.

• Toon: These are the adorable animated pets and playable characters controlled by the users. Their goal is to repair machines and collect Ichor while exploring the Gardenview Center.
• Twisted: These are corrupted, monstrous, and disfigured versions of the Toons themselves, altered by the Ichor. They act as the main antagonists and enemies of the game, whose sole purpose is to hunt down and eliminate the Toons.

• Main (Main Function): This is the entry point of a program. It is the first function that executes when the program starts, and it is generally responsible for initializing components, configuring the overall flow, and calling other functions.
Handlers: The Toon Handlers in Gardenview are a group of humans responsible for supervising and caring for the Toons. Assignment: Each handler appears to be assigned to a specific Main Toon that matches their personality.

• Twisted Toon (Common, Uncommon, or Rare): These are Ichor-corrupted versions of standard Toons. They have more predictable behaviors, appear on lower floors or in a more standardized way, and their abilities are usually basic or subtle (e.g., wandering, removing tapes, or having a standard range of vision).
• Twisted Main: These are corrupted versions of the main characters (such as Astro, Pebble, Vee, Shelly, or Sprout). They begin appearing from floor 5 onward, possess much more complex mechanics, speeds, ranges, or special abilities, and represent a considerably greater challenge for players.

Lethal: Dandy and Dyle, since they remove all hearts and kill you instantly, but Dyle only appears on a specific floor, which is rarely seen.

Astro is an introverted, shy, and quiet Toon who enjoys interacting with his fellow Toons, though he rarely initiates conversations. He cherishes peace and quiet and can become agitated or withdrawn if bothered, but he has only ever lost his temper with [character name]'s behavior and no one else's. Connie Render

He speaks formally, but has a playful and humorous side, even if it doesn't seem like it, jokingly suggesting that Rodger try to find more hobbies, and laughing every time Waxwell repeatedly shouts that he gives people nightmares.

He's willing to help his friends with their problems, especially their dreams, but sometimes he tries to refuse the help they offer, preferring to be the one lending a hand. However, he often doubts some people, though he remains calm as always. Repeatedly talking about something or worrying about it can irritate Astro, and he finds it odd. Characters like Looey are the reason his skepticism sometimes goes too far, and he needs to examine his thoughts and not rely too much on his own judgment.

Astro is a light aquamarine Toon with a face resembling a crescent moon. The right side of his face is entirely black with a star-shaped white eye. He wears a cornflower-blue blanket that wraps around his torso, concealing his four arms to the point that they are barely visible as faint folds in the blanket. However, his blanket is short enough to reveal his legs, which are the same color as the crescent moon side of his face. An indigo stripe runs horizontally across his blanket, just above the edge. Underneath the blanket, he wears mid-length black shorts that are barely visible because the blanket covers them, though earlier versions of him never wore them. He wears a dangling nightcap the same color as the stripe on his blanket, with light blue trim and a light blue pom-pom on top. During blackouts, he emits a blue glow that changes color depending on his equipped appearance and a galactic tail with stars at the tip.

Astro is the designation M-002, where the M probably stands for Main Character.
The cartoonist in charge of Astro is Austin Russo. Render by Austin Russo.
Astro's speech sounds originate from Deltarune when entering the Dark Worlds in Chapter 2. (This can be seen in this video, but in the game that sound plays many times. A clear version of this sound can be seen in this video.)
Astro and are part of the Book Club. Dazzling and spectacular rendering of Brightney
Based on a 1988 photo found on the greenhouse floor, it is clearly implied that Astro and Dandy Render are childhood friends. It is stated that their friendship is wholesome, even after the fall of Gardenview.
This is also hinted at in an image found on the official merchandise website, where Dandy and Astro are stargazing. The scene appears to take place in the Gardenview lobby before it was painted and possibly before Gardenview opened.
They may still be friends, as they continue to talk to each other even during Operation Ichor, as hinted at in one of their interactions with [names omitted], as well as in some of Toon's other interactions, such as [names omitted], but not everyone appreciates it. Pebble Coating Teagan Render Vee Rendered Sprout Render
According to his dialogue with her, he and Dandy often chat about past events, much to her annoyance. Astro seems nervous or worried about certain conversations that Connie may not have witnessed. Connie Render

To wake Twisted Astro, you must collect all the Star Pillows that appear when he sleeps. The number you need to collect depends on the number of living Toons and will be displayed above Twisted Astro's head. All the pillows will be highlighted, so they aren't too difficult to find; however, it's wise to be careful when going to collect a pillow, as other Twisteds or hazards may get in the way. After collecting all the Star Pillows, he will take a moment to wake up, and a golden aura around him will indicate this. Once awake, he will simply wander around. If Toon Astro is on your team, he can wake Twisted Astro immediately with his ability, which can save time and eliminate the risk of death or injury, as well as making the job of a distractor a little easier. Pebble's can also wake him up, which theoretically makes him the best Toon to distract Twisted Astro, but this actually results in Twisted Astro winning for 10 seconds (thus having a chase speed of 23.75, 28.5 during Panic Mode, 27.31 with [unclear]). The same thing happens when using Airhorns, so if you decide to wake him up quickly using an alert, make sure that you (if you're distracting him) or the distractor can handle the sudden speed increase.

As mentioned earlier, after 20 seconds, Twisted Astro will fall asleep and begin having a nightmare. Initially, the nightmare is small, only affecting nearby Toons. This first level of the nightmare inflicts damage while a Toon is within it, which can be mildly dangerous, but a -25% reduction in stamina regeneration isn't that significant, especially if you have stamina items on hand or are a Toon who can maintain high stamina. After approximately four pulses, the entire radius of the nightmare increases, with a second level appearing within the first. The second level inflicts damage and induces hallucinations in players, consisting of random fake Twisteds running rapidly toward the player before disappearing, or a fake Twisted appearing on the ground nearby before spinning and bouncing when approached. After a few more pulses, a third level appears in the center of the nightmare's radius as it grows even larger. This third section inflicts Exhaustion III and periodically emits a black pulse that drains the energy of any Machines caught within its range. After a while, the radius of the nightmare will continue to grow, and a timer will appear on the left side of the screen. The timer starts at 60 seconds, and when it reaches zero, one Heart is lost. This cycle repeats continuously until Twisted Astro is awakened.

Comparatively, Twisted Astro is probably one of the main Twisteds that's harder to distract. While his debuff isn't too difficult to manage, after 20 seconds of pursuit, he'll fall asleep, meaning you or your teammates will also have to be on the lookout to wake him up. In terms of being chased by him, unless you're distracting him, you'll typically use up stamina to escape, though the debuff will slow your stamina regeneration after escaping, leaving you more vulnerable to other Twisteds. When paired with Twisteds like [insert specific Twisteds here], their debuffs can synergize lethally, causing you to run out of stamina much faster and potentially get hit or even killed.

Twisted Astro is a unique threat, as he can detect alerts from anywhere on the Floor, including air horns, his Active Ability when used, and failed Skill Checks. Therefore, it's important to be aware of your surroundings and warn your teammates if you decide to intentionally alert Twisted Astro to draw his attention. If you fail a Skill Check, he will lose half of the current progress on the Machine you're mining if he reaches it, so try to avoid certain types of Machines if you're struggling with them, and generally stay focused. Air Horn Pebble Lining

After a period of inactivity, or if he is in a chase for 20 seconds, Twisted Astro will fall asleep and begin having a nightmare. While he sleeps, a transparent, spherical radius will slowly grow from his location, increasing in size over time. The radius has three sections, the outermost being the first and least intense; the first section inflicts damage; the second inflicts damage and induces hallucinations; the third section inflicts Fatigue III, induces hallucinations, and periodically darkens the screen. After a while, a 60-second timer begins, counting down to a damage cycle of 1, before repeating continuously. Twisted Astro will wake up 10 seconds after all the Twisted Star Pillows are collected from the ground, if his Toon counterpart uses their Ability near him, or if a Toon's Active Ability is used near him (though this enrages him and makes him faster for a short time).

Twisted Astro is a large, wandering Twisted that roams aimlessly across the floors. Like its support counterpart, its unique ability allows it to slow down the progress of machines after detecting a failure in the Skill Test. Astro will drain approximately half of the machine's current progress, meaning it will have a slight effect on nearly finished machines and a significant effect on those close to completion. Twisted Astro will also apply the debuff if it chases you, reducing your stamina regeneration by 75%.

Twisted Astro is larger than his Toon counterpart. He appears to be crying Ichor, but only on the left side of his face. Both eyes are red, including his right star eye. His blanket is torn, revealing his four arms and black shorts. There is Ichor on his upper right arm, lower left arm, and right leg. His nightcap is also larger, trailing on the ground. The bottom of the nightcap is completely covered in Ichor. When he is inactive or walking, he brings both hands to his face, seemingly trying to wipe away or hide his tears. Additionally, the tip of his nightcap twitches every few seconds when he is inactive. His face appears more traumatized when he chases a Toon, and he has a somewhat long black tail with stars at the tip, resembling a galaxy.

One of the main characters in the world of Dandy. Overwhelmed by guilt and despair, his pain drags others into his nightmare. His pursuit exhausts the Toons, and his failures in skill tests cause him to drain the machines. After a chase, he rests and enters a nightmare where a growing ring exhausts the Toons, causes hallucinations, and drains the machines. Stop his nightmare by finding his star pillows!
