Tripping the Rift: Character Biographies
Tripping the Rift Characters are pretty unique. The writers sharply avoided the usual sanitised format, (normal dude, strong dude, head dude and wimpy female) and went for a cool mix of misfits.
The Character section of this guide is interpretative. Most people have their own impressions of the main players and… this is ours.

Main Cast Characters |
ChodeThe Captain of the overnight delivery vessel, Jupiter 42. Wadda dude! Short, three eyes, fat and purple and he can STILL pull the girls. |
Darph BoboWadda dude! Oh, already done that but no, he really is, for different reasons. Darph is evil and has no respect for anything! Especially his own loyal stormtroopers! He blissfully butchers his way through life ans seems to get away with it. |
GusGus is a robot with a heart... no he isn’t! but he has at least got a brain… a nasty one. He/it is a cantankerous, insolent and sarcastic member of the crew. |
Six of OneSix of One is the First Officer of The Jupiter 42… we think. To some people think she’s a drop-dead gorgeous computer sprite! Those big… round… bright eyes are stunning! |
WhipOfficially Whip is the ship’s foreman. But the Jupiter 42 doesn’t need a foreman, so he’s really the designated slacker. If you need something done right the first time, don’t give it to him, ’cause he won’t do it at all. |
T’NukT’Nuk is the Ship’s pilot and token ugly alien. The only thing dirtier then this repulsive space pig is her mouth. T’Nuk is the only member of the crew capable of Bob (the spaceship) to get his ass in gear. |
Spaceship Bob / Jupiter 42The ship formerly know as, the Free Enterprise, is the fastest ship in the galaxy. Too bad it also has some deep rooted fears, like the fear of wide open spaces! |
