Characters
Tunic has several friendly characters.
Fox
The fox,[1][2] also known as the Ruin Seeker,[3][4] is the playable protagonist of Tunic. They seek to explore ruins, or to bring ruin to the world.
Appearance
The fox is a small anthropomorphic orange fox with white patches of fur. Their nose and their paws are brown. They have a hair floof that bounces on their forehead as they move around. They wear a green tunic with a brown belt (yellow in the box art), and a purple-pink neckband.
The fox's colors can be customized in the secret changing room to the right of the Overworld's fountain.
Personality
The fox is fascinated with treasure and always locks their head to face any nearby unopened treasure chests, somehow even being able to sense them through solid walls. They also stare at signposts, Check-Points, manual sheets, tombs, fox ghosts, and targetable objects, like enemies.
Trivia
- The colors of the Lures (other than in the inventory), Oblivion Seekers, and The Heir match the customization colors of the player’s fox.

Spectral Seller
| Locations |
The Spectral Seller,[1] also known as the Shopkeeper,[2][3] is a character in Tunic. They sell merchandise to the player at the shop.
Appearance
The Spectral Seller is a large floating purple skeletal creature with glowing purple eyes. Their head has an animalistic shape, with pointed ears, and their lower jaw is missing.
Personality
The Spectral Seller patiently watches the fox wherever they wander within the shop, and the Seller's hand tips float close to each other, as if expectant of the fox to buy something. The Spectral Seller is appreciative of the fox spending money at the shop, politely bowing whenever the fox purchases one of their goods.
Shop
Adventurers beware, there are no ways to obtain unlimited quantities of Ice Bombs or Hot Peppers on a single playthrough, as the Spectral Seller does not sell them, making them a limited resource.

A Disquiet Being is a tentacled creature with a trio of hexagonal eyes colored red, green, and blue. It has an elongated hexagonal head.
Plot
Disquiet Beings are depicted on page 4 of the instruction manual, and are suggested to gnaw apart at the Canonical Plane.
They are subtly depicted as corner decorations for the corners of page 3, 4, and 5. They also decorate the corners of the back side of item cards.
If the player opens the Sealed Temple doors prior to ringing the Eastern and Western Bells, they will see a vision where the eyes of a Disquiet Being looms above the imprisoned Heir, who is cowering in fear. The eyes are literally the red, green, and blue keys.
Statues of Disquiet Beings are on either side of The Heir statue in the first room of the Cathedral.
On page 35 of the instruction manual, it is stated that rotating the Magic Orb around the forbidden axis partially summons a Disquiet Being.
The Glyph Tower depicts a circle of 12 stone Disquiet Beings surrounding the top of tower. Page 54 of the instruction manual refers to the 12 as "strange beings."
