==Main recurring characters==
===Ava's co-workers===
The following characters have worked with Ava at Craven Gifts and QMPD:
====Members of [[Quillsville Metropolitan Police Department]]====
* '''District Attorney Pia Yoque''' (voiced by [[Marti McDaniel]]) - Quill County DA who first appears in "[[The Rape of Heather Willis]]". Pia has been the district attorney since 1984. Yoque graduated from Indiana University. In 1994, she tried Melanie Tibbs for the female-on-male rape and murder of Kate Zobrowski. Although Melanie maintained her innocence, she was convicted of being identified in the Zobrowski house by Kate's mother, Elinda Zobrowski (also Dana Jane Zobrowski's mother), and Melanie who captured three blocks from home with blood on her boots. Melanie was home on that day as part of a story at Elinda Langston apologizing for a fight first. In fact, officer Joe Noland (who retired from Quillsville PD in 2000) took the letter from Melanie before her arrest.<BR>Thirty years later, Yoque was approached by Lieutenant [[Nick Jeffries]] and Captain [[Brad Hunter]] regarding the case after Elinda Langston recanted her earlier statement and Noland had died from stage 4 prostate cancer. Yoque was angered when Hunter and Jeffries asked for a warrant to search the evidence in the Internal Affairs case against Noland for the letter. Yoque was unswayed by the change in evidence, and refused, maintaing Melanie, who was due to be executed in three days, was guilty.<BR>The day after Melanie's execution, Jeffries searched through the evidence anyway and discovered Melanie's letter, which corroborated her story and cast suspicion on his boss Caroline Nelson (then known as Kyle Nelson). When Yoque walked into the evidence room, demanding to know what Jeffries was doing, Jeffries confronted her with the letter, which Yoque had apparently been aware of. When Yoque, completely unrepentant, still insisted in a condescending tone that Melanie was guilty, Jeffries punched her in the nose and walked out.<BR>Yoque went to Captain Hunter's office later that day, demanding that Jeffries be punished, and was incenced when Hunter allowed him to conduct the interview of Caroline Nelson. Caroline was later arrested for Kate's murder, and though Jeffries was restricted to desk duty for punching Yoque, Yoque herself would eventually be suspended from the DA's office and reprimanded by the Quill County Prosecutor for her actions. Yoque retired from the Quill County District Attorney's office in 2028 after 44 years.

* {{anchor|Ava's Bully|Bart the Bully}}'''Bart the Bully''' (voiced by Melvin Runecraft from 2006-2012 and Phil Allen from 2019-) – A former classmate of Ava's that often fights violently and suddenly with Ava Willis, usually interrupting some unrelated event. The fight scenes are often long and melodramatic, involving the destruction of large sections of Quillsville and sometimes killing bystanders. Ava always wins, but it is then shown that the Bully is still alive. This rivalry begins in "[[Therapist Hopping]]" when the Bully took Ava's appointment with Lynsay Gerardo after Ava worked overtime, which angers Ava (however, in "[[Meet the Pamhousers]]", Ava's meddling (as a male) in her past allows her to accidentally punch the Bully while dancing at the Quillsville Central High School gymnasium, giving a new origin to the rivalry). In "[[Revenge of the Male Anchors 2]]", their fight comes to a halt when Ava and the Bully forget what they have been fighting about, and Ava is cordially invited to dinner with the Bully and his wife Danielle. Although the character's official name in scripts and production documents is simply "Ava's Bully", the Bully is referred to as "Bart" in this dinner scene. When the bill comes, both Ava and Bart try to pay. This starts out politely but quickly escalates to a fight that resumes their feud. In "[[Therapist Hopping 2]]", Bart the Bully turns up at a ballet in the Quillsville Civic Center while Ava interrupts her defense of Lynsay Gerardo to rejoin the fight. Bart is not directly referenced in the episode "[[Quillsville Cold Case]]", but in the waiting room when Ava asks a decapitated bully if he should be running around, the bully says "Don't talk to me, you stupid tranny slut. You have a bad reputation in the bully community". In [[Ten Years to Life]], the Bully does appear with his best friend Josh Kaufman and two buddies (names unrevealed) and the fight with Ava continues while Ava and Angie discuss a second honeymoon thath ended up becoming the [[Karly Jameson]] concert. The Bully's fight with Ava continues in "[[Road Rage (Queen of the Willis)|Road Rage]]", where Ava accidentally backs her truck into the front of the Bully's car; during this brawl, the Bully is close to killing Ava at an oil rig, but gets burned alive by the falling debris and plunges into the ocean, taking on the appearance of a roasted pork—but is still alive by opening his eyes.

* '''Joseph Caine''' (voiced by [[Melvin Runecraft]]) - A disgraced former Indiana trial judge in Quillsville and enemy of both Ava Willis and Judge Akim Anastopoulo. In "[[The New Mayor in Quillsville]]", he is discovered to have murdered a prostitute, but (thanks to legal maneuvering) he is able to get away with the crime. He appears later in another episode, releasing Ava Willis's old work enemy, Gus Grisson, from prison despite Ava Willis telling the judge that he would have blood on his hands. In "??", he was charged with orchestrating the murder of his own daughter, but he did not believe her at the time because, in his mind, there was no way a teenage runaway could be related to him. Luckily, a DNA match (obtained by [[Tabby Willis (Queen of the Willis)|Tabby Willis]]) later revealed the truth, and Caine was eventually arrested by [[Anna Pamhouser]] in his own former chambers ("[[Quillsville Cold Case: From Retirement to Homicide Detective]]") now occupied by Akim Anastopoulo.

*{{anchor|Paul Cooper}}'''Paul Barry Cooper''' (voiced by ) He is the father of Christina and Lilly, who left the family when Lilly was six because of a toxic relationship with Ellen and probably her drinking habit in Philadelphia. He remarried to a woman named Celeste and relocated to Haddonfield, New Jersey, where he was an avid chess player.  He and Celeste had two children, Maggie and Finn. Paul carried a lot of guilt for leaving her, though he believed leaving her mother was the right thing to do because "some people just shouldn't stay together."  

* {{anchor|Mario Coxson|Doctor Coxson}}'''Dr. Mario Coxson''' (voiced by Ava Zinn) - An incompetent doctor who works at Quillsville's hospital and colleague of Melissa Rose and Lynsay Gerardo. Dr. Coxson is generally shown to be an unskilled doctor and his skills fluctuate from episode to episode. In one episode, he mentions his [[Wikipedia:Harvard School of Medicine|Harvard Medical School]] degree, but then implies it is a product of his calligraphy skills. Occasionally, he seems to know exactly what he is doing and performing great medical feats, such as where he does not even understand common medical terminology. In one episode, Angie brought up the fact that Coxson sounds very similar to [[Peggy Willis (Queen of the Willis)|Peggy Willis]] and [[Mandy Willis (Queen of the Willis)|Mandy Willis]] when he speaks. In "[[Quillsville Cold Case: Something About Loose Ava]]", [[Harry Willis (Queen of the Willis)|Harry]] (Ava's father) also brought up the fact Mandy Willis sounds familiar to Peggy Willis and Doctor Coxson. As a response, Coxson tells Angie that Peggy (and later Mandy) is one of his patients and that there are only so many voices in the world; some are bound to be similar and that he never noticed because they do not talk all that much despite the fact that Peggy and Mandy in fact a patients of his. This was brought up to turn the scenario that Ava Zinn voices Dr. Coxon, Mandy and Peggy into a comical situation. His name comes from Zinn's good friend Kayla Cox and after Super Mario Brothers. In "[[Ratings Queen]]", it is revealed that Coxson is the worst doctor at Quillsville's hospital. In "[[Queen of the Hill]]", Dr. Coxson was among the Quillsville citizens to attend the trial between Mississinewa Cola and Alamo Beer in Arlen, Texas.

When [[Lilly Rush (Queen of the Willis)|Lilly Rush]] tried to arrest Horatio, it was revealed that the brother and sister's father was General Antonio Horatio "A.H." Cruz, an ambassador from the Jamacia, an area which was under diplomatic immunity from the United States. Therefore, Quillsville Police could neither arrest Horatio nor could they use any of his possessions as evidence. His younger sister (Monique) and brother (Mario Clavo) was able to be arrested, as Deanna and Monique had sex on Canadian soil (Windsor, Ontario), had Canadian blood, and because he flew the Jamacian flag in international waters, leaving him unprotected and arrestable in Jamacia.<BR>Horatio Cruz reappears in "[[The Rape of Heather Willis]]" after being traced by Quillsville Police Detective Lilly Rush to another rape but not Deanna's. He continues to taunt Ava Willis, Melissa Rose, Lilly Rush, and Quillsville Police officers, using the line "We never lose", a line Ava Willis had spoken after Tiffani arrested Monique. A blood test of General A.H. Cruz, the alleged father of Mario, Monique and Horatio, revealed that although Horatio, Monique and Mario had the same mother, Cindy Martha Cruz, they had different fathers, making Horatio an adoptive son of General A.H. Cruz. <BR>When Ava Willis, Lilly Rush, and Melissa Rose reveals Cindy’s infidelity to the family, the General becomes infuriated. Lilly Rish then reminds the General that he can disown Horatio and thus rescind his immunity at any time; he does immediately, allowing Lilly Rush to arrest Horatio.<BR> In another episode, however, Horatio escapes custody after a cohort steals a rocket launcher from a crime scene and blows up the courthouse in which he was being arraigned ("No Wowan's Land"). He later lures Ava Willis and April Sack into a parking lot to find a hostage, who turns out not to be there. In the ensuing gun battle with his cohorts, April Sack is nearly killed when a security guard shoots him in the head (Horatio offered him $1,000,000 to do so).<BR>In the next episode ("Worker Down"), Horatio seeks revenge, killing his adoptive father in the consulate. Later on, Horatio's real father is revealed, and as it turns out, Horatio had smuggled illegal gender transition related medication into Quillsville, and his escape from jail was intended to help [[Melissa Rose (Queen of the Willis)|Melissa Rose]]. Melissa's home is raided and temporaily shut down by Natalia Lightner and Adrienne Fansler. After being disowned by his biological father and having nothing to live for, Horatio returns to "[[Wikipedia:suicide by cop|duel]]" with Ava Willis, despite being unqualified. Immediately after raising his gun at Ava, he is shot once in the chest by Ava Willis (the same weapon used by [[Angie Willis (Queen of the Willis)|her wife, Angie]] in "[[Aeverine Kills Rags]]"), and dies.

* '''Monique Cruz''' (voiced by [[Hannah Wilson]]): Cruz is the sister of Horatio Cruz and the biological mother of Lina Willis, first appearing in "Ode to Deanna" who is later revealed to be Deanna's rapist, due to ancestry DNA Ava Willis obtained from Horatio Cruz in "[[The Rape of Heather Willis]]" (it was also revealed Deanna is the biological father of Lina Willis). She and her younger brother (Mario Clavo) was able to be arrested for the rape of Deanna Willis, as Deanna and Monique had sex on Canadian soil (Windsor, Ontario) and concieved Lina Willis, had Canadian blood, and because he flew the Jamacian flag in international waters, leaving her unprotected and arrestable in Jamacia.

[[Lando Abhrams|Lando]] and [[Lilly Abhrams]] envy and resent them, but go to great lengths to gain their favor, such as inviting them over for dinner. They live in the upscale, gated community of Indianapolis Heights, and are prominent members of Oak Hill Country Club. Addison and Stacey tolerate the Abhrams but, in reality, look down upon them. They joined the Episcopal Church despite being Buddhist because it was "good for business." Addison is also blatantly hypocritical. She referred to Lando as a "Tranny Banana" (a combined slur to identify transgendered men and woman and ethnic slur to identify an Asian American apparently lost in touch with their ethnic identity; more comfortable with Western society) even though Addison possesses far greater degree of luxury commodities, and lost most of her accent. Lando ended up having an extramarital affair with [[Ava Willis (Queen of the Willis)|Ava Willis]] in "When There's Pressure, There's Affairs".

* '''''[[Wikipedia:Fonzie|Arthur "Fonzie" Fonzarelli]]''''' (voiced by Ava Zinn) – The [[Wikipedia:Happy Days|''Happy Days'']] breakout character, is parodied in several episodes. In "[[The Education of Thomas Willis]]", "[[Rags Kills Aeverine]]", and "[[Ten Years to Life]]" when each Willis family member exclaims "Oh no!" to Judge Akim Anastopoulo's sentcing of Angie, the Fonz respectively breaks through the walls of Bart Peterson Middle School, the courtroom wall and a Montreal, Indiana apartment building yelling "OH YEAH!" then backs away awkwardly. In "[[Earthquake in Indiana]]", he has an epiphany while sitting in his living room when a car crashes through his wall, which put him on the receiving end of the trademarked breaking wall for the first time. In "[[A Quillsville Christmas]]", after Tabby (then Rags) panics about the existence of the Santa Claus, Heather, Tom and Deanna fail to calm Tabby, then Pamhouser makes an attempt, then the Fonz is seen in a pair of boxing gloves at the back of a line of other characters.In "[[Valentine's Day in Quillsville, Indiana]]", the Fonz is with his parents, (Vito Fonzarelli (voiced by [[Wikipedia:Bob Barker|Bob Barker]]) and Angela Fonzarelli (voiced by [[Wikipedia:Betty White|Betty White]]) when they meet his date who turns out to be [[Wikipedia:Roberta Tubbs-Brown|Roberta Tubbs]] (much to his father's dismay). In "[[Queen of the Hill]]", the Fonz attempts to break through the wall during a trial between Angie Willis and Peggy Hill in Arlen, Texas. However, he calls Angie to apologize that she "went to the wrong [[Wikipedia:Harlem|Arlen]]" as he broke through the wall of the courthouse in Harlem in New York City. This references the fact that the state in which ''King of the Hill'' version of Arlen is in Texas rather than New York.

He dresses like an old school rich cowboy with a ten-gallon hat and cowboy boots. An untrustworthy type, Ivey is a sometime foil to Ava Willis and/or Tina. His sins are similar to Tina Craven's (adultery, gambling, using people), but more pronounced. Ivey openly considers customers as little more than moneymakers and hires centerfold models or Chippendale dancers to bait potential gifts customers.

He shot at Ava Willis when she is revealed and ran; Ava Willis shot a fuel canister on the boat and blew it up, but West's body was never found. He was later revealed to have survived the explosion in a season 15 epiosde, where he was shown to have had some surgery on the left side of his face, which was burned by the explosion.
