StickFigureBlue, commonly known as Blue, is one of the main protagonists of the Animator vs. Animation franchise, being one of the five members of the Stick Gang.

He is one of the Fighting Stick Figures, alongside Red, Green and Yellow, who first appeared in Animator vs. Animation 4, where they met an orange stick figure known as The Second Coming who taught them how to escape their website out into the rest of the internet.

Shown to be naïve and peaceful, he prefers to resolve fights instead of joining them and is usually the last one to resort to violence. He has a variety of skills such as farming, cooking, archery and alchemy in Minecraft, being referred to as the "hippie" of the group because of these traits. One of his most defining traits is his serious addiction to Nether wart and ~~Buttons~~ and his desire to go to extreme lengths to obtain them, even risking the safety and health of himself and others by doing so. That is also how Animation vs Minecraft Season 3 started, after Blue ran out of Nether wart and decided to go into the Nether to get some.

Appearance

Blue is a light blue natural stick figure of average height with a solid head. His official hex code is #33CCFF as stated by Alan Becker in a Discord message.^[3]

Originally, he, along with the other Fighting Stick Figures were much taller and their colors were more vibrant. After the original Animation vs. Minecraft, he is shortened.

Personality

Blue is shown to be a pacifist, and is described by Alan as a "hippie," probably due to Blue's love of plants and hatred of violence. That said, he is not afraid to fight whenever he or his friends are in trouble. Oftentimes, he is the one to try and diffuse a situation before it gets out of hand. He is a natural leader, as shown when showing the Villagers how to defend themselves against a Raid, and is eager to help others, even at the cost of his own safety.^[4] However, he is also a Nether wart addict that is willing to go to extreme lengths to obtain his supply. Blue has a deep love for his friends, and a genuine compassion for almost everyone he meets.

Powers & Abilities

Expert Chef: Blue is shown to have a love for cooking, as he is always making meals for all their friends, which are received with great gusto (except for when he tries to put Nether wart in them).
Expert Farmer: Blue is shown to have expansive knowledge of farming from Animation vs. Minecraft onwards. This skill has come into good use on their adventures and is the initial reason for Blue's discovery and addiction to Nether wart.
Expert Alchemist: Blue is shown to have amazing skills with potion making. He made the first discovery of potions^[5], and was very quick to learn the functions of the brewing stand. Blue also is shown to incorporate potions into their fighting style, best seen during the fight against the Witch, where Blue is shown to have been on par with them, up until his eventual exhaustion of potions.
Expert Bassist: Blue is shown to be extremely good in playing bass. This was seen in Note Block Battle or any other musical Animation vs. Minecraft videos. He has also been shown to play the violin.
(In dreams) Turning One-Dollar Bills into Trees or to Clean Garbage: Within the Second Coming's dreams, he always sees Blue possessing this bizarre superpower of using money to clean garbage and plant trees, as seen in Blue's New Superpower and Animation vs Trash. He also appears to be skilled at gambling, as he won a heap of iron, gold, emeralds, and diamonds in Blue's Speedrun.
Expert Fighter: Blue is shown to be an extremely adept fighter, as with the rest of the other Fighting Stick Figures, being able to take on multiple enemies. His most common weapon is a Bow and Arrow, but he is also shown to be able to use dispensers in a manner similar to that of a minigun, and in The Raid he uses a Crossbow with Fireworks as ammo. He, much like his friends, is also quite skilled with a sword, capable of singlehandedly killing several Zombified Piglins and Zoglins in The Piglin War, being the last stick standing when he and his friends fought the Butcher in The Chef, and defeating the Green Team and ending their streak when he was the last stick standing in Bedwars.
- Expert Archer: Blue is shown to have very proficient skills in archery, best seen in Cave Spider Roller Coaster, where he is shown to have been able to hit multiple targets in rapid succession whilst engaging in high-activity movement.
Fishing Rod Proficiency: While not his typical tool of choice, Blue can use a fishing rod as a grappling hook to climb or attach to big objects, just like Green and Yellow, especially shown when he and Green used fishing rods to ride on a Ghast in The Nether and did the same with the Ender Dragon in The End, also saving the Stick Gang and Purple with a swing from the fishing rod in Hardcore Manhunt.
Nether Wart Immunity: While Blue can eat Nether wart without much of a problem, anyone else who tries to eat it will either hate it or suffer damage from it.

Weaknesses

Addictive Personality: Blue can easily become addicted, to the lengths where he would risk the safety of himself and even others.

Trivia

Blue was the first of the Fighting Stick Figures to ever appear on-screen in Animator vs. Animation 4.
- Blue is the first-ever natural stick figure to be introduced.
- Blue is the second solid-headed stick figure to appear in the franchise, following AOL Instant Messenger.
  - If AIM is not counted due to being a program, then Blue is the first solid-headed stick figure in the franchise.
Blue has made the most number of appearances overall, currently at 25.^{[citation needed]}
Alan described Blue as cautious, free-spirited, and hesitant to get into fights. This doesn't account for when he spars with Yellow, Green, Red, and The Second Coming, or the time he killed a Ghast due to believing it was attacking Yellow when it was actually tickling him. He is also described to be a little bit of a hippie.
- Ironically, despite this, he has the sixth-highest body count in the entire franchise, beaten by only King Orange, The Chosen One, The Dark Lord, The Second Coming, and Green.
Blue often appears to cry when he believes one of his friends dead, as when The Second Coming thought to have accidentally killed Green in PvP. However, he was also spooked enough by Green's apparent "resurrection", that he and The Second Coming immediately attacked him out of fear, only to belatedly realize that they killed him twice.
According to Alan himself, Blue has a serious addiction to Nether wart, claiming it was a "problem for him". When Green was asked by one of his fans what he and the others think about Blue's addiction, he claimed that they've "mostly come to terms with it".
Blue can breakdance, as shown in Power Outage and Black Friday Weekend Special, and breakdancing is a large part of his moveset in Animation VERSUS.
Blue is the first stick figure to be named after the color he is.
In the Animation vs. Minecraft series, Blue is shown using a bow and arrow more than using a sword, similarly to Primal, as he is the only mercenary to not use high tech weapons.
Blue is the first ever stick figure to have been shown with hair, followed by Mitsi.
- Due to this "hair" being a wig, this makes Blue the only known wig owner in the Animator vs. Animation Franchise.
Blue and The Second Coming are the only characters to appear in every fundraising episode.
He and Green sometimes camouflage with the backgrounds of the Outernet.
Blue (along with the rest of the Stick Gang and Purple) appears in the promotional trailer of the game Animation VERSUS.
Blue loves indie rock.^[6]
Blue and Yellow both have only died four times.
Blue and The Chosen One are the only stick figures to have had their torsos expand. Blue swells up in "Blu-ing Stand" and The Chosen One breathes in, slightly bulging his torso, to blow fire at the Mercenaries in "Wanted".
A reoccurring ability Blue has in fundraiser episodes is the ability to turn money into objects, such as helmets and trees, as well as use money to destroy and remove trash. Despite them being implied to be dreams, Blue has also shown interest in money in App Staff, where he creates a Paypal staff that shoots cash, and Blue's Speedrun, where he gambles with villagers for valuables.
In the 30 Million Subscriber Q&A, Alan suggested that a small quirk Blue could have is being superstitious and "really into astrology, horoscopes, and stuff like that."
