— Naily, on multiple occasions
|
Naily is a female contestant in Battle for BFDI and Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two.
In Battle for Dream Island, Naily was one of the 30 recommended characters that had a chance to join the show in "The Reveal". The votes for the debut were revealed in "Reveal Novum" and she only got 3 votes which was not enough to join, placing her 29th to join the season.
In Battle for Dream Island Again, Naily had the chance to join at the start of the season but she only received 100 votes which wasn't enough, placing 44th to join the season and so she was sent to the Tiny Loser Chamber.
In IDFB, Naily is currently in the Tiny Loser Chamber due to failing to debut in BFDIA. She had a chance to join the season but only received 44 votes[1], which was not enough to rejoin and placed her 35th to join the season.
In Battle for BFDI, Naily competed on Team Ice Cube! until the split in "The Escape from Four" where she left the show to compete on Two's show.
In Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two, Naily competed on Just Not until her elimination in "Fishes and Dishes" with 2,286 votes, originally placing 39th. However, due to Liy and Pencil joining TPOT in "Category One", she ended placing 41st overall.

Personality[]
Naily can often be silly and humorous, remaining mostly quiet other than to crack a few jokes, primarily nail puns. On the other hand, she can be very argumentative and even dangerous, such as when she stabs Spongy (who is later revealed to be Tree in disguise). She defends this by saying that, when one is a nail, they often get the urge to stab things.
BFB[]
In either regards, Naily is seemingly defined by her physical being, whether she succumbs to her instincts or makes light of them varies, apparently, on the gravity of the situation and her own willpower. On occasion, Naily can be quite boastful and confident. In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", she assures her team of her abilities by saying "Don't worry, Icy Boys! I got this". In "Don't Dig Straight Down", she reassures Bomby about reaching the tunnel that they entered the Buried Forest, Deciduously Insulated from by saying "Bomby, that ain't a problem." She can also have a softer side as seen how in the same episode, she apologizes to Woody for stabbing him seven years ago and helps him by throwing him through a garbage chute.
TPOT[]
Naily has a quirky and fun personality, often using puns like “I nailed it!”. She prefers to be around people who are similar to her, like when she bonds with Price Tag over their shared ability to make the ">:3" face and lets Pillow join her team for being able to do the same in "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?." Naily can be smug and confident, but she also cares about her team, as seen in her efforts to save the plant in "Gardening Zero". Overall, she’s a character with a clear sense of how to balance her playful side with concern for her team’s success.
Official Character Guide biography[]
As nails are wont to do, Naily likes to spear things. Naily has pricked Woody at least twice. Naily is very self-confident and is eager to participate.
Naily is fond of puns, which are a play on words. Firey Jr doesn't like that, but many recommended characters secretly appreciate it a whole lot.
Did You Know?: Every time Naily uses the pun "nailed it", she loses one friend.
Abilities[]
- Heat resistance: Naily is immune to lava, thanks to her metal body.
- Stabbing: Naily can stab using her back.
Weaknesses[]
- Shank: If Naily gets stabbed deep enough into the ground, she cannot manually pull herself out due to her lack of arms. This is shown in "The Four is Lava" when Flower sticks her into the ground, but later breaks out of it off-screen.
- Frontal attacks: As shown in "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Naily has a fairly weak front, being stabbed by Needle on her front.

In "Reveal Novum", Naily, along with Tree, Barf Bag, and Saw received 3 votes each, which was the 2nd lowest out of the rest, with the lowest being Roboty's 2 votes. As revenge on the Announcer, Naily continuously stabs him until he flings her to the Locker of Losers.
In "Return of the Hang Glider", Naily watches the final Cake at Stake from the large crowd of recommended characters.
Battle for Dream Island Again[]
In "Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know", Naily had a chance to be a contestant in Battle for Dream Island Again, but she got 100 votes, which wasn't enough to join. She was later flung to the Tiny Loser Chamber with the other contestants who didn't make it.
In "Well, Look Who It Is!", Naily joins the rest of the non-contestants on their smaller half of the TLC. When Eraser complains about not being able to see past Balloony, Lollipop suggests using Naily to pop him, afterwards Naily exclaims her catchphrase. When Pen tells everyone they need to run away, Naily encourages people to crank the flying machine. When the laser is approaching the LOL, she is seen with a worried expression before being shoved away by Snowball. When the laser hits, Naily seems very happy with her new design.
In "PointyPointyPointy ♫", Naily is shown in the LOL. However, she does not have lines.
In "Spore Day", Naily can be seen being used by Blocky to threaten Cake.
In "Respect to the Wicked", Naily does not get lines due to Balloony taping her mouth shut.
IDFB[]
In "Welcome Back", Naily is given a chance to leave the LOL.
Battle for BFDI[]
Naily in Battle for BFDI
In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Pencil and her alliance trying to find out who popped Bubble. She approaches Naily, asking if it was her and Naily says no. Pencil, however, speculates that she's lying and declares that they should punish her. Loser then steps in and tells Pencil to put Naily down. She is one of the last four picked for a team. She is chosen to join Team Ice Cube!, alongside Donut. She is later used as a weight by Barf Bag and Bracelety, using Spongy as a trampoline, and is used to get a basket to X, making her team safe.
In "Lick Your Way to Freedom", she is used as a jackhammer by Gelatin to break a Jawbreaker open.
In "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", her only appearance is on her team's swing set. After Donut's speech, she tells her team to transform, and Gelatin and Barf Bag both leap onto Spongy to propel the swing. However, Bleh completed all 50 swings, and her team's swingset presumably collided with Bomby off-screen, as he is later seen injured, cutting her team's swinging session short and subsequently causing her team to be up for elimination, as they only completed 47 out of the 50 swings needed for her team to be safe.
In "Today's Very Special Episode", Naily is seen after the intro, climbing Bell's string, along with the rest of Team Ice Cube! (barring Donut). At Cake at Stake, Naily is declared safe with 1,178 votes. When hit with a cake, she is knocked off of Bell's string, landing on Woody. Because of this, she avoids Lightning's electrocution of the climbers. She agrees with Clock that it was the largest zaptation she's ever seen. She does not actively participate in the challenge, but her team is safe.
In "Fortunate Ben", she appears alongside teammates Spongy, Donut, and Barf Bag, and angrily corners Gelatin, who threw Bracelety's signs into a dumpster and were recycled into Death P.A.C.T.'s fortunes for the Cake at Stake. She is happy that he did this, however. She is later seen on her team's paper plane, and their plane never hit the ground, granting immunity.
In "Four Goes Too Far", she has a shocked expression when Donut injects the Twinkle of Contagion into himself. She is also seen in the heart scene.
Naily about to kill Bell by impailing her.
In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Naily is first seen yelling "My turn!" and bouncing through two rows of bouncy toys along with everyone playing with the toys. When Donut announces what he did to Loser to eliminate him, she states that he had it coming. Firey Jr. tells her off for being "ungrateful". During the challenge, when the contestants are fighting over the jawbreaker, Naily stabs Bell in the face (who had the jawbreaker), killing her, and escorts the jawbreaker while still inside of Bell's body. She tells her team (referred to as "icy boys") not to worry, and that she's got it. Later on, it shows that Naily has been stabbed by Needle.
Naily is dead for the next few episodes but is revived in "Enter the Exit" once Four is brought back by Pin. Prior to Four's resurrection, Donut had attempted to revive Naily, but had only succeeded in creating a mutilated version of her identical to the form contestants take on after being magically mutilated by Four. Upon being revived, Naily returns to her team and is hugged by Bomby.
In "What Do You Think of Roleplay?", Naily stabs Spongy, and this angers Firey Jr. He asks her if stabbing people is the only thing she knows how to do, and she replies that her being a nail makes everything look like something you should stab. Barf Bag later asks if Naily is a fake due to her not making any nail puns, but she explains that she's stopped because Firey Jr. found it annoying. Naily then asks if Spongy is a fake due to him just sitting there the whole time, but the other see this as normal. This makes her and Firey Jr. think that Bomby is the impostor, but before they can finalize their decision, iance figures out their impostor, meaning Team Ice Cube! is last and up for elimination. She seems to be annoyed at the "melting" joke Four used when he says they were up for elimination and even more annoyed when X and Four argue about it. Naily and Firey Jr. blame each other for losing the challenge.
In "Return of the Rocket Ship", Naily states that she never expected the outcome when she was announced to be the last one safe during Cake at Stake with 5,202 votes. She then proceeds to say "Good riddance, am I right?" after Firey Jr. was sucked into Four.
During the challenge, Naily follows her team down a hole that iance dug. They end up landing on Bubble, and are dizzy from the fall. Afterwards, she is seen walking with the rest of Team Ice Cube! when they find a mysterious location.
Naily has a major role in "Don't Dig Straight Down". After discovering the Inverted Planet, she plays with Gelatin in the trees. She accidentally punctures Barf Bag, causing her to lose her barf and eventually become unconscious. She later plays in the Hot Spring with Gelatin and Spongy, until Spongy breaks the Earth's crust and causes lava to spew everywhere. She escapes with the rest of Team Ice Cube! into the tunnel. Bomby decides to detonate himself so the rest of Team Ice Cube! could escape, since Spongy wouldn't let them on his jet. However, Naily was set off track when Gelatin pushes her and falls down Beep's hole. She grabs onto Nickel as Beep flies downward and is then trapped between the lava and Rocky's acid. Balloony later feeds Nickel to Rocky to vomit more, which leads them to the metal roofing of Golf Ball's Underground Factory.
After pointlessly trying to dig through solid ground with his hand, Balloony decides to use Naily to break through. Later on, the lava gets closer and Balloony is burnt to death. Naily tells everyone else on Beep that is still alive to try to break the ground. Golf Ball notices that there are intruders thanks to the siren in her lab, and attempts to investigate. She and Woody survive the lava, while Cloudy, Golf Ball, and Rocky are engulfed by the lava and die. Naily tells Woody that they should run for the stairs. While running, Naily apologizes to Woody for nailing him seven years ago in "The Reveal". Woody makes content, yet incomprehensible vocalizations, meaning that he accepted her apology.
When Naily and Woody climb up the stairs, they encounter Coiny and Cake, who are running away from the lava above. They notice a Garbage Chute, and they send Coiny to open it. Coiny succeeds, but then falls into the lava. Naily realizes that she and Cake can't fit, but Woody can if he is on his side. Cake and Naily bid Woody farewell as they send him into the garbage chute for safety. After throwing Woody, Naily and Cake are engulfed by the lava and suffer a fiery "death".
Nail out of her shank.
In "The Four is Lava", when the lava is drained, Naily and Coiny appear outside of Golf Ball's Underground Factory. Naily remarks that the lava must not have been hot enough to kill metal people like her and Coiny. Naily and Coiny later rush to X in the sky to find more survivors. Flower and Coiny argue about the challenge being a race, with Flower emphasizing that it's part of the challenge.
After Coiny hears this, he punts Naily, making her fall behind, but later catches up. After The Losers! are declared safe, Flower grabs Naily and sticks her into the ground, much to her dismay. Flower finishes the challenge and Team Ice Cube! is put up for elimination, later off-screen Naily breaks out of the ground unknowingly.
In "The Escape from Four", Naily is upset and thinks she will be eliminated since she let her team down. Four slaps her in frustration and then says she is safe with 2,938 votes. After seeing Two turn The Sun into a spike ball, which he then uses to hit Four, Naily quits Battle for BFDI to compete in The Power of Two.
Battle for BFB[]
In "X Marks the Spot", Naily can be seen cheering after Coiny "glued" X down with Lollipop's orange paint. She was also seen gasping with some of the other TPOT contestants when X is lassoed away by Four-Colored Team.
In "Uprooting Everything", Four mentions Naily when he says he's going to miss Lollipop, whom he forgot about.
Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two[]
Naily in Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two
In "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?", Naily sticks with Bomby and declines Donut's offer to be on the same team as him and Barf Bag. After seeing Eggy hurt Cake's feelings, she invites him to her team. Naily becomes friends with Price Tag since they can make a very epic face (>:3). Snowball tries joining too, but once he mentions arms, Naily kicks him away. She also lets Pillow onto the team when she does the >:3 face.
When her team says they won't have a dumb name, she says "Yeah, we're just not", which causes the name to be Just Not. When Remote accidentally gives Two the wrong colors for the grass and trees, Naily stops her from correcting herself as she thinks they look nicer. During the challenge, Naily smugly tells Basketball they're using the elevator, grinning at her before being joined by Price Tag. The elevator ends up getting stuck after Snowball forcefully pries the elevator door open. Later, Snowball and Basketball end up fixing the elevator, making Just Not safe.
In "The Worst Day of Black Hole's Life", Naily is first seen walking to the elevator before the intro. Her only other appearance is when Remote finds her in a pile of batteries that she cannonballed into. Her pointy end pierced some of the batteries, causing them to leak acid that kills both her and Remote. Naily remains dead but her team still manages to be safe.
In "Getting Puffball To Think About Rollercoasters", Naily attempts to run away from the falling stacks of blocks, but ends up getting hit and gets stuck into the ground. During the challenge, she follows her team into the hotel as they look for items to use for their attraction. Once they have their items they are all pulled back to the park by Robot Flower. They manage to score a 3/10 from Two thanks to Price Tag showing that their trash has value. Naily's team is safe from elimination.
In "Gardening Zero", Naily’s team is sent to the desert to protect their funny plant. Naily pulls a leaf off the plant and notices how it shrivels into dust instantly, saying the plant is getting really dry. To keep the plant moist, Naily asks Bomby if she can blow him up for the challenge. He allows it, so she lights his fuse with heat from the sun and throws him into a cactus. She then collects water from the cactus in a bucket, which she pours on the plant. Later, the team notices that Cake hasn’t arrived back yet, and that none of them told him to avoid the cursed Yellow Face skeleton. Cake ends pouring water from said skeleton on the plant, which kills it, putting Just Not up for elimination.
In "Fishes and Dishes", Naily is first shown holding a Funny Plant underwater in a pool. In Cake at Stake, Naily is eliminated with 2,286 votes. She tells Remote that she thinks she "nailed" it. Remote attempts to compliment her back by saying she "remoted" it, but the pun doesn't work with her name. Two says they both "twod" it, but it doesn't work with their name either. Two then enlarges their hand and grabs Naily and Remote, making them disappear, ending Naily's time on TPOT.
In "I SAID CAREFUL!!!", Naily briefly appears seeing Eraser in the elimination area alongside Foldy, Rocky, Teardrop, and Remote.
