• That Ninja: A take-off on the classic piece of Metal Gear Solid dialogue, "Hey, you're that ninja!" ... The X-Play Ninja has been known to sneak silently throughout the X-Play studios, causing his own unique brand of mayhem, such as changing the script to reflect more ninja-themed situations and shooting both Adam and Morgan with tranquilizer darts (NOTE: A Post-it note seen in the ninja's cubicle would indicate that his real name is actually N. Inja).

• "Jack Thompson": This parody of the infamous anti-gaming disbarred Florida attorney (who has appeared several times on Attack of the Show!) made his X-Play debut reading the news during the Gaming Update. Of course, he couldn't help editorializing, claiming (among other things) that video games caused the crash of US Airways Flight 1549.

Performed by: X-Play script consultant Ross Beeley

• "Thor": The Norse thunder god (and star of the poorly reviewed movie tie-in game) officially replaced "Aquaman" as the mascot for the show's annual Golden Mullet Awards during the 2012 episode, in a parody of the Dead Island trailer; with the footage running backwards, "Thor" is shown accosting "Aquaman" (while he is trying to play a game of Endless Ocean with the "Wonder Twins") by smashing through the wall of his apartment and attacking him with his hammer, eventually killing the DC character before walking off with his Golden Mullet award.

• Thumbless Ted: An avid gamer who lost both thumbs in separate incidents at the 1998 E3 event - first, he was going to try out the new game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, when another gamer grabbed at the N64 controller and pulled it out of his hand so violently that his right thumb went along with it. Then, as Ted staggered outside, a rabid fanboy was running down the street with a pair of scissors (claiming that he had cut off a lock of Hironobu Sakaguchi's hair) and accidentally snipped off the other thumb. He later dies after entering a stickshift car, not being able to change gears.

• "Tim": see Dante's Hairclub for Demonslayers

• Timmy: The star of the fictional X-Play Orientation Video (Reel 1 of 214), which is meant to help first-time employees get acquainted with their new duties. The skit is portrayed in the style of educational films of the early 1950s, and shows Timmy performing various tasks on his first day at work in the X-Play offices - holding game controllers for Adam (so he doesn't develop calluses), performing forbidden acts of dark magic for Morgan (since she is really a 3826-year-old Sumerian who requires the sacrificial offering of innocent blood to the god Baal in order to stay young and beautiful), and participating in the stress-relieving activity of office NERF combat.
