Appearance[]
Firey Jr. appears as a smaller version of Firey with a thicker outline. His limbs are typically drawn without hands and feet due to his size, save for a few exceptions.
Before his redesign in "Well, Look Who It Is!", Firey Jr. looked exactly like his original self, having the same outline size, except smaller.
Changes[]
BFDI 14
- Firey Jr. looks identical to Firey, save for the text "JUNIOR!" written above his head.
BFDIA 1-13
- The text "JUNIOR!" was removed, with Firey Jr. now using Firey's asset until BFDIA 13, albeit resized to be smaller.
BFDIA 13+
- Firey Jr. has a thicker outline, but still retains Firey's asset in the IDFB 1 voting screen, this being the last time the latter's asset is utilized for the former.
Personality[]
BFB[]
Firey Jr. usually tries to be thoughtful and is protective towards his friends such as Bomby and Spongy. However, when talking to people he does not particularly know or care for, he has been seen to show insensitivity and borderline rudeness. One big example of this is his interaction with Marker in "Enter the Exit". He is also shown to be very selfish towards Naily and only cares about his own interests sometimes.
He also seems to be very observant and an analyzer. This can be seen in "What Do You Think of Roleplay?" when he plays a big role in his team's attempts at discovering the impostor. When insulted, Firey Jr. gets very defensive and may talk before thinking. An example of this is his elimination in "Return of the Rocket Ship".
TPOT[]
His actions, specifically in "Out Of The Blue", highlight his cleverness and dedication to his team, even in the face of repeated challenges. His sarcasm and frustration give his character depth, as he balances between being annoyed at their situation and determined to see it through.
Despite his frustrations, Firey Jr remains protective of his teammates. He takes on the role of a lookout while Dora and 8-Ball explore the shipwreck, warning them when Four approaches. His quick thinking and ability to burn the tentacle that clings to Dora demonstrates his commitment to protecting his allies, even when the odds seem stacked against them.
Official Character Guide biography[]
Firey Jr is a flame, although a much smaller one than Firey. Although he tries to be protective of his friends, especially Bomby and Spongy, Firey Jr. is seen as largely insensitive. He resorts to name-calling most of the time.
Firey Jr. is best friends with Bomby but can't stand Naily, because he thinks she's annoying.

Battle for Dream Island[]
In "Half a Loaf Is Better Than None", Firey Jr. walks into a vat of hydrochloric acid to retrieve the Announcer's marbles.
In "Return of the Hang Glider", Firey Jr. sits in the large crowd of recommended characters to watch the final Cake at Stake.
Battle for Dream Island Again[]
In "Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know", Firey Jr. received 179 votes to join season 2 which wasn't enough. Firey Jr. and all the other contestants who didn't get enough votes are then sent to the TLC.
In "Get in the Van", he appears on the 3rd-anniversary wheel.
In "Well, Look Who It Is!" and "PointyPointyPointy ♫", Firey Jr. is shown in the LOL. However, he does not have lines.
Firey Jr. attempting to fling Ruby and her sisters away to the WTF.
In "Spore Day", Blocky uses Firey Jr.'s heat to boil Teardrop as part of one of his pranks. Later, during Cake at Stake, Firey Jr. announces that Book has won the prize, and Ruby has been eliminated. The LOLers attempt to fling Ruby away, but they miss their target, and her sister, Topaz, mocks them for it. In response, Firey Jr. repeatedly presses the fling button, causing Ruby’s sisters to scatter as they try to avoid the flinger. Meanwhile, Firey Jr. smiles from inside the LOL, amused by the chaos.
For the next contest, the wheel lands on "enter the birdhouse." Firey Jr. and the rest of the LOLers lead the remaining contestants to the colosseum, where the birdhouse rests atop a tall pillar. As the contestants gaze at the birdhouse in awe, Firey Jr. proudly describes it as the "epitome of interior design."
Curious, Nickel attempts to enter the birdhouse, only to discover that it is far too small for him—or any of the contestants for that matter—to fit inside. Firey Jr. teases Nickel, suggesting he’s jealous for never being able to experience such "true elegance." Book, unimpressed, counters by pointing out that the exterior of the birdhouse is coated with toxic lead paint. Firey Jr. dismisses her concern, clarifying that it's the interior design that's elegant, not the exterior.
The challenge soon begins, and the contestants manage to acquire a shrink ray to reduce themselves to a size small enough to enter the birdhouse. But at one point, the shrink ray is accidentally used on the birdhouse itself, reducing it to an even smaller size. Firey Jr. exclaims about their worsening predicament, emphasizing that they'll now need to shrink even further to enter.
Eventually, after much trial and error, The Hearts successfully enters the birdhouse, securing their victory in the challenge. However, despite Firey Jr.'s repeated claims about its "elegant" interior design; Coiny, Fries and Pencil discover the truth: the birdhouse's interior is nothing more than a cluttered mess of stacked chairs, a BFDI DDS, and a dirty mattress.
In "Respect to the Wicked", Firey Jr. does not get lines due to Balloony trapping him inside of Bottle and taping her opening shut.
IDFB[]
In "Welcome Back", Firey Jr. is given a chance to join the show by getting voted out of the TLC.
Battle for BFDI[]
In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Firey Jr. asks Spongy if he and Bomby can join their team. He accepts on the condition of not being burned, and Firey Jr. responds with "No promises!". Later he tells Bomby to retrieve Bracelety when she becomes incapacitated. Firey Jr. later criticizes Gelatin with Donut for wanting to blow up Bomby.
In "Lick Your Way to Freedom", when Bracelety becomes sad that the contestant they rescued, Teardrop, wasn't Ice Cube as she expected, Firey Jr. says she will get over it. In "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", when Donut gives an encouraging speech, he says there is no one quite like Firey Jr.
In "Today's Very Special Episode", when Bracelety is announced to be out, Firey Jr. is surprised to discover that her name was not "Ringy".
In "Fortunate Ben", he is seen in an offscreen flashback, being held by the leg by Gelatin in an attempt to light Bomby while Liy stops him. During the challenge, he looks at Gelatin angrily when he suggests using Bomby to blow up the other plans.
In "Four Goes Too Far", Firey Jr. confusedly stares at Donut when he's about to pull out the Twinkle of Contagion.
In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Firey Jr. claims that Naily is ungrateful that Loser saved her. During the contest, Bubble throws the Liar Ball at Spongy at which Firey Jr. launches it elsewhere and says that they did not ask for it.
In "This Episode Is About Basketball", Firey Jr. looks at Gelatin angrily when it sounds like he was about suggest blowing up Bomby again.
In "Enter the Exit", Firey Jr. tells everyone generally that Four must be brought back. When Marker tries to play Four with his hand, Firey Jr. tells him that he could be an "idiot".
In "Get to the Top in 500 Steps", Firey Jr. gasps when Four announces that an eliminated contestant is rejoining.
In "What Do You Think of Roleplay?", Firey Jr. chides Naily for stabbing Spongy. He later suspects Gelatin to be the impostor, as he hadn't attempted to use Bomby to win yet. Barf Bag rebuts him, though he remains dubious. When Barf Bag suspects Naily for not saying she "nailed it", Naily argues that she didn't because Firey Jr. said it was annoying, which he stands by. Donut states that Firey Jr. can't be the impostor, as there's no one quite like him.
Firey Jr. turns on him, asking if he was "supposed to be mean.". This confuses Barf Bag, and he explains to her that Donut had to be mean in order to be eliminated first in BFDIA. Barf Bag defends Donut, leading Firey Jr. to grow suspicious of her. He agrees with Barf Bag that all Spongy does is sit around. Firey Jr. begins to suspect Bomby, but is cut off by Donut. iance wins off-screen, causing Team Ice Cube! to lose. Firey Jr. and Naily argue, blaming one another for their loss. He also scolds Spongy after the latter claimed he liked to "sail airplanes".
In "Return of the Rocket Ship", Firey Jr. was eliminated with exactly 10,000 votes. Barf Bag calls it a minor personal victory for him. Firey Jr. interprets the "victory" as a insult directed towards him, believing everyone is mocking him. As Firey Jr. starts to get sucked into Four, he states that he never liked anybody anyways, and calls his entire team garbage before being sent to the EXIT.
In "The Escape from Four", Firey Jr. is first seen sitting in the EXIT, having to use Roboty as a seat. Later, Firey Jr. goes to hop into Spongy, though Stapy interjects, informing Firey Jr. that Spongy is flammable. After Stapy is forced back into Four, he apologizes to Firey Jr., and grants him permission to leave. Firey Jr. then jumps in and accidentally burns Spongy. Firey Jr. quickly retreats and apologizes to Spongy for harming him.
Battle for BFB[]
In "Chapter Complete", Firey Jr. is first shown cheering for Four. He overhears Flower wondering when Four is coming back, which makes him ask Four what that's supposed to mean. Later, Four argues that the contestants hating him isn't his fault and Firey Jr. refutes that he constantly kills them for fun, forces them to do math, and gets angry when they don't do it. Four then snaps Firey Jr., along with the other imaginary characters, out of existence.
Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two[]
In "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?", Firey Jr. is first seen falling from the stack of items after Stapy knocks it over. He then watches Liy and Stapy with the other Exitors.
In "The Seven Wonders of Goiky", the EXITors are shown finally escaping through the door Liy unlocked. After walking down a hallway for a while, they discover what appears to be a dimension themed entirely around Four.
In "Outbreak At Stake" he, along with the EXITors argue outside the EXIT. He wants to go deeper into The Fourest, and is ordered by Pencil to venture deeper with 8-Ball and Dora.
In "Out Of The Blue", Firey Jr., Dora, and 8-Ball are walking through the fourest. Firey Jr remarks that sometimes he doesn't even know what language they’re speaking and then realizes they’re just going in circles. Unsure of their path, he picks up 8-Ball and throws him at a tree. 8-Ball bounces off the tree and lands on top of Firey Jr, burning him into the ground and angering him. Dora then leads them in another direction, and they decide to follow her.
Firey Jr. hopes that the other teams with more useful members are having better luck. A montage is later shown of the exitors trying to escape over the course of four years. Firey Jr, Dora, and 8-Ball dig until they reach the other side, only to be flipped upside down with no success.
Subsequently, they remain in the fourest, where Firey Jr. hears David’s voice but isn't sure why. Later, as he and 8-Ball cheer Dora on while she cuts down trees for their stack, Four spots them and merges into the ground, becoming one with the trees. Firey Jr., frustrated, is annoyed that nothing ever goes right for them. When Four picks up 8-Ball, Dora retaliates by throwing Firey Jr. at Four, burning his hand. Four punches them across the fourest, landing them on a shipwreck.
Firey Jr. notices the school in the distance and suggests heading back. They decide to check the shipwreck for items for their stack first, but Firey Jr. can only go so far due to the water. He decides to be on the lookout for Four and warn the others if he returns.
Firey Jr saving Dora and 8-Ball from the tentacle
As the others explore the shipwreck, Firey Jr. spots Four heading for the fourtress and warns Dora and 8-Ball to get out. However, it's too late as Four arrives. Firey Jr. stops at the water's edge, telling them he couldn't stop Four. Dora and 8-Ball emerge from the water with a huge tentacle clinging to Dora. Firey Jr burns the tentacle, causing it to retract.
They leave but realize they are much higher up, seeing Four, now in a Kraken-like form, holding the ship. Firey Jr. reminds them that him falling into the water would kill him. 8-Ball, though unsure of survival, is willing to help. Dora throws 8-Ball at the sail, pushing it downwards towards Four, burning him. Four screams in pain and conveniently throws the shipwreck onto the shore, saving them but losing all their items. Firey Jr., annoyed by their loss, is surprised to realize Dora actually saved them.
As they reach the hallway, they take a quick break, but Four catches up. They place the treasure chests on top of 8-Ball and Firey Jr. tells Dora to push. They run as Four blasts half their stack. Upon arrival, Firey Jr. explains they brought less due to Four’s attack, but Pencil doesn’t believe him. As they escape, Four arrives and destroys the stack, but it is too late, as most of them have already left.
Four tries to keep Firey Jr. behind, but he also escapes, taunting Four before leaving. They elude, and as Four is about to send them back, Two intervenes and instead hires them as cooks for the failed debuters. The exitors remain unhappy, and Firey Jr. calls all the algebralians morons. They see TPOT still ongoing through the window and want to participate, so they try to smash the windows open, ending the episode on a cliffhanger.
In "What's Up Bell's String?", Firey Jr., along with the other exitors, are trying to break the hotel windows, continues their efforts. Later, when a piano crashes through the windows, they are offered an opportunity to join TPOT. During his audition, Firey Jr. criticizes his former team as pitiful, and pleads with the voters to rescue him from the other exitors, promising to do whatever it takes.
In "Category One," Four congratulates Firey Jr., Liy, Pencil, Bracelety and Dora for making the top five for the exit debut. Firey Jr. agrees that it was well deserved, but Four informs him that he didn't make the top four, receiving only 9,983 votes. Four then blasts him into the storm, and as he flies off, Firey Jr. blames the voters, asking them what they were thinking, and telling them to "grow a brain."
In "I SAID CAREFUL!!!," Firey Jr. is seen inside of a fireplace within a cabin, taking shelter from the extremely cold conditions outside. His slumber is disrupted by Team 2's arrival, when they borrow some of his food and tools. 
rush in as well, to take cover from a landslide. He tries to kick them out, but he is landed on by Liy and Book, setting the floor on fire and causing it to collapse. Team 2 and fall into a cave, but Firey Jr. is not seen again for the rest of the episode, presumably dying off-screen.
