— Ruby, "The Reveal"

Ruby is a female contestant in Battle for Dream Island Again, IDFB, and Battle for BFDI.

She was also one of the 30 recommended characters that could have joined Battle for Dream Island, she placed 5th with only 22 votes. She did however get enough votes to join BFDIA. She competed on Team No-Name before switching to FreeSmart later. She lasted long enough to be outside of the TLC in IDFB. Ruby has 35 sisters that are seen in the ABCDEFG video on Carykh.

Ruby competed in BFB on iance and the Have Cots, until she was eliminated in "A Taste of Space".

Appearance

Ruby has a round brilliant gemstone cut. She is not translucent nor refractive. In BFDIA, Ruby has less contrast than in "Reveal Novum". In IDFB and BFB, she is a bit darker-colored.

Changes

BFDI

  • Ruby's body has a very small tinge of orange in it and is darker in color.
  • Ruby’s outline is black.

  • Ruby is lighter.
  • Ruby's face is lower.
  • Ruby's arms are lower.

BFDIA onward

  • Ruby is darker-colored.
  • Certain parts of Ruby's shine are slightly tinted pink.

Personality

Ruby is a bubbly and curious contestant. She enjoys playing around with other contestants, notably Bubble and Flower. She has been shown to look up to characters with leadership roles such as Match and Pencil, although she can display these traits on her own quite well, as seen in BFB 13 and 14.

In "Reveal Novum", Ruby was desperate and fast-talking as seen in her audition tape, as fast as she could, she asked the viewers "PLEASE? Please. Can I join the game? Please Please." which only gave her 22 votes, not enough to join.

She's shown to be sensitive as seen in BFDIA 5c, as she starts crying after Pencil yells at her. She's also shown to be a bit dim-witted in Welcome Back, as she stupidly jumps down the spiral staircase of the Yoyle Needy to get to the bottom, only to shatter into pieces.

In BFB, however, Ruby's personality somewhat changes. She's now quite more passive than before. For example, in "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", she watches Flower get zapped by Lightning with almost no concern, despite seemingly having a friendship with Flower. Ruby also displays a more critical side, as she became judgmental of Flower's physique in "Fortunate Ben". She also showed her vengeful side in "What Do You Think of Roleplay?" when she unfolds Foldy for causing iance's loss.

Despite this, in "Return of the Rocket Ship" and "Don't Dig Straight Down", she seems to act more of a leader as they tunnel under the ground. Ruby gets the entire team to dig and also leads them away from Golf Ball in BFB 13 and 14 respectively. It is unknown what caused this and what effect it will have during future challenges if any.

Official Character Guide biography

When we first met Ruby, she is sweet and sensitive, an absolute gem of a person. Get it? Gem? LOL. Despite her brilliance, others may see Ruby as an irresponsible scatterbrain. She acts before she thinks, which often leads to mistakes.

Ruby's fans are just as enthusiastic as she is, saying her name hundreds of times in each vote.

Did You Know?: Ruby eats more sugar in a day than the others do in a month, combined.

Coverage

Appearances

Battle for Dream Island

In "The Reveal", Ruby is one of the 30 handpicked characters who can join BFDI. Her audition shows her begging "Please, please" to the viewers to vote her in.

In "Reveal Novum", when the Announcer flings Nonexisty, Ruby says that he missed him. Ruby's desperate pleads to join the game only gave her 22 votes, placing in the 5th place, losing to Nickel, Bomby, David, and Evil Leafy. However, if jacknjellify allowed people to vote more than once, Ruby would've won with 206 votes, but this was not the case and so she got sent to the Locker of Losers.

In "Return of the Hang Glider", she is in the massive crowd of recommended characters who watch the final Cake at Stake from the bleachers.

Battle for Dream Island Again

In "Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know", Ruby received enough votes (381) to join BFDIA. When Puffball suggested that someone switch teams, Ruby is about to make a choice, but Donut talks over her and says that they want Match on their team, which upsets Pencil. Ruby at first says her favorite screen is a star shape, but later changes it in the screen montage to the shape of a recovery center. She later switches to the larger team and helps them win easily in the tug or war challenge.

In "Get Digging", when W.O.A.H Bunch were on their way to Cake at Stake, numerous clones of Ruby are seen laughing at them along with other members of Team No-Name. When Team No-Name was making yoylestew, Golf Ball ordered Ruby to get ingredients. While making yoylestew, Match and Pencil ask Ruby to join their alliance. Ruby asks about Bubble, but she's dead. She then asks about Ice Cube and Match tells her she made an ugly face, which they didn't like. So Ruby decides to join. When Match and Pencil want Bubble back, Ruby tells them not to waste their time bringing her back.

In "Insectophobe's Nightmare 3", Ruby's team, Team No-Name, was up for elimination. Ruby received 183 likes (placing 12th) and received 158 dislikes. In the contest, Golf Ball asked Ruby, Pencil, and Match why weren't doing the challenge. Match replied that they were excusing themselves from the contest. While the other contestants were doing the contest, Ruby confesses that she was acting weird because she was afraid that if Bubble rejoined the alliance, she would be kicked out. Match reassured her that wouldn't happen before Pencil revives Bubble. Bubble then gets angry and confused about Ruby, stating that she's not in their alliance, and kicks her away. Match then tells Bubble that Ruby is also in the alliance now, which Bubble acknowledges by giving Ruby an "apology slap."

In "Zeeky Boogy Doog", Ruby calls Match nice after she saves Firey's life. Afterward she is killed because of Pin still shaking the Eiffel Tower. Later, Ruby brings Flower back when everyone is reviving someone. After freezing her she is scolded by Gelatin, with Pencil threatening to kick her out of the alliance, saddening Ruby, until she reveals she was joking. When it's to time to pick the challenge, Ruby realizes that there's no point in competing if Firey won Dream Island. However, after she spins the wheel, it immediately provides a solution with the next challenge, build Dream Island. She follows Golf Ball and the rest of her team into Golf Ball's Underground Factory to build the island. When it's completed, she suggests calling it poopy mayonnaise. She is then killed by Bomby's explosion and loses the contest.

In "Get in the Van", after she's recovered, Ruby is seen partying with the other alliance members in the Clubhouse of Awesomeness on the Eiffel Tower. During Cake At Stake, she receives a piece of Donut as a prize and eats it. She says Donut's blood tastes good, making Firey correct her by saying it's cherry filling. Later, when Golf Ball wants all the members of Team No-Name to promise never to leave, Ruby and the rest of the Alliance don't promise and leave to make a new team. Ruby suggests they call their new team poopy mayonnaise". They decide on the name "Freesmart", and Ruby cheers with the rest of the team. Ruby then spins the challenge wheel. It lands on "Reach the summit of Yoyle Mountain", and she and asks her team what their plan is. Pencil tells them to get in the van, which Ruby does. Later, while in the van, she asks where all the peanuts went. Pencil says Ruby ate them all, which Ruby denies. As they drive into a snowy area, Ruby makes a snowball and throws it at Book, starting a snowball fight. They approach the edge of Evil Canyon, and Ruby jumps with the rest of Freesmart to try and get across, only to be eaten by Evil Leafy on the other side.

In "No More Snow!", Ruby and the rest of FreeSmart are trapped on top of Evil Leafy. She accidentally pops Bubble while jumping and asks Pencil if she should press the button. Pencil scolds her, saying of course she should press it, making her cry. Pencil apologizes to Ruby and she stops crying. Ruby presses the green button and blows away Ice Cube and Match. Pencil scolds her again, asking if she ever went to Gem School. Ruby says no because (as Book informed her) Gem School is only for diamonds. Ruby presses the yellow button that appeared out of nowhere and trapped the team in a cage. Pencil angrily tells Ruby once again to press the red button; when she pressed it, Pencil was zapped by electricity and killed.

Book tells her to press the mysterious purple button, which zaps the two out of Evil Leafy and back to normal size. They tried sneaking away, but Evil Leafy notices, and starts chasing the two. They climb a tree and then cut the wire (rope) holding a 9,042kg block. Puffball and Fries tried saving their teammatees but got crushed by the 9,042kg block along with Evil Leafy. Ruby wants to recover her dead team members, but the HPRC was inside Evil Leafy and was crushed, making Ruby die in sadness (allegedly). The W.O.A.H. Bunch catches up and helps them crank the HPHPRCC.

In "It's a Monster", she is first seen cranking while saying to Book that she did not die from sadness as Book had thought. The next day, Ruby gets break time with Match and Book. The next day, Ruby is seen playing a different variation of Spongy Cake, being the second overall to do so and eventually gets back to cranking. Ruby is nervous upon realizing the HPHPRCC is going to explode, she even hallucinates it exploding, letting out a scream in the process. Book calms her down, pointing out the HPHPRCC simply disappeared without a trace. When all the team members have been recovered, FreeSmart embarked on the journey to Yoyle Mountain. Ruby asks Pencil if she is sad about the recent loss of the FreeSmart Van, to which Pencil unveils the FreeSmart Supervan.

When Book realizes that they did not bring the HPRC with them, Ruby suggests they steal, agreeing with Pencil. Later, she reveals that she saved snowballs in the mini-fridge and starts a snowball fight. At the end of the episode, Pencil drives the van through the Goiky Canal, and Ruby sometimes revives team members who can't hold their breath or needs to be revived, while dying many times herself.

In "The Long-lost Yoyle City", Ruby gets Yoyleberries and gives some to Bubble, not hearing Book reminding them that they'll turn into metal. Ruby carries out the HPRC when they are about to trek in Yoyle City but accidentally ends up putting it in glue, annoying Match and Pencil, even to the point where Pencil tells Ruby to stop making mistakes, to which she agrees. After the team kills Pencil when is stuck in a Fish Monster's tongue, Ruby recovers the dead Pencil. Later, Ruby's team gets to the actual summit and wins the contest. At the end of the episode, she asks how they will get down from the summit of Yoyle Mountain but moments later all of the contestants are seen plummeting towards the ground, screaming.

IDFB

In "Welcome Back", Ruby is seen with the FreeSmarters on the Yoyle Needy. She welcomes everyone to day 1,147 of the FreeSmarters video diary where they eat the gumdrops collected over the years, however, Pencil realizes that Ruby never removed the lens cap. She doesn't know what a lens cap is but apologizes anyway. Bubble explains to Ruby that a lens cap is a circular cap needed to remove before recording. When Book realizes that Ruby may have been recording all the video diaries with the lens cap still on, Ruby makes the excuse that the world is a strange place and anything can happen. She gets shocked when she realizes all the video diaries are just a black screen.

When Ice Cube asks what happened on BFDIA 6, Ruby reveals a chart that shows Puffball being eliminated with 1,455 dislikes. Pencil asks where she got that and Ruby tells her it's a secret and she'll never know. Ruby puts the results over the edge of the tower and teases Pencil to get it. Pencil ends up over the rail and falls. Ruby tries to get down as quickly as possible by falling but instead shatters.

At the end of the episode, Book recovers Ruby by typing "ROOOOOBEEEEEEE!" instead of her actual name.

Battle for BFDI

In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Ruby is first seen with her alliance. She tells Bubble how cool it is to have a personal recovery center and then follows her alliance to find who keeps popping Bubble. Ruby cheers when she sees Loser. Ruby randomly tells Bubble that Flower is beautiful much to the delight of Flower. Ruby asks Pencil if she is still a member after Bubble gets demoted. Pencil says yes, which makes her both relieved and very happy.

When forming teams, she joins the alliance with Pencil, Match, and Bubble. She also causes her team to merge with another team due to Flower. Ruby tells Pencil how good of an observation she made while naming their team The Alliance.

During the challenge, Ruby and her team jump to get the basket. Match asks Ruby if her eyes are open, Ruby says yes, but closes them after Match told her to close them. Saying if the sun's photons reach her open eyes, it will make her heavier. She thought she was close at one point, however, she wasn't anywhere near and was up for elimination.

In "Lick Your Way to Freedom", Ruby is the second safe in Cake at Stake with 152 votes. In the challenge, she helps her team to lick Ice Cube out of a jawbreaker.

In "Why Would You Do This on a Swingset", Ruby gets on her team swing.

and "Today's Very Special Episode", Ruby climbs Bell's string and gets zapped off by Lightning. In the challenge, she is very briefly shown presenting her team's Four makeover with Match, while cosplaying as Pencil.

In "Fortunate Ben", Ruby plays Spongy Cake with Match. Flower pulls her away, and Ruby gets slightly angry. Flower asks Ruby to convince her "ignorant friends" that she's pretty, however, Ruby did not like Flower's appearance at the time. When Flower curls up her arm, Ruby calls her beautiful. They also test out many other different factors.

In "Four Goes Too Far", she is only shown looking at Donut before he pulls out the Twinkle of Contagion, followed by the heart scene.

In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Ruby cheers for Loser when he appears at the beginning of the episode. Later, Ruby plays with a broken jawbreaker and shoves a piece onto Fries' face.

In "Enter the Exit", Ruby realizes that Four has the prize, which makes everyone want to bring Four back more.

In "Get to the Top in 500 Steps", Ruby and most of the rest of the team accept that Flower is the one running up the stairs. She then gasps when she sees Flower pull out her Non-Slip Shoes So Ha. Despite her efforts, Flower isn't able to press the button before anyone else, so iance is up for elimination.

In "What Do You Think of Roleplay?", Ruby unfolds Foldy, for messing with her team. When it was time for Cake at Stake, Ruby and the other members were seated near Gelatin's Steakhouse. Ruby was safe with 1,124 votes. Ruby was about to get zapped by Four disguised as X when she flung pickles at him. She was "forgiven" by Bubble for trying to replace her. Later in the challenge, Ruby and Flower conclude that Snowball and Bubble are both real due to their behavior. She wasn't seen again until the stinger end of the episode where Eraser hallucinates Ruby morphing into a pentagon.

In "Return of the Rocket Ship", Ruby attempts to dig for X's treasure with her teeth. Bubble points out it would be faster to use a shovel. Ruby agrees with Bubble and gets shovels for iance so they can start digging, getting into a few conflicts in the process. Later while digging, iance hears a team falling above them. Ruby flips her body upside down to impale them, but Snowball tells her to stop making her pose. After they instead dig sideways, Ruby gets iance to dig a side pit to blow team Beep into so they don't land on Team Ice Cube! and pop Bubble.

In "Don't Dig Straight Down", Ruby is upset with Flower for getting Bubble killed. After Flower says Ruby was about to impale 2 whole teams, Ruby says Bubble's life is special and that Flower lost her flower power. When Lightning asks Snowball if they should be following the coordinates Grassy gave them, Ruby tells Lightning the coordinates. Flower says the emerald is up and Ruby digs upwards, not even noticing her team. Ruby gets woozy later and Snowball calls her a weakling. Ruby realizes she feels nauseous because she senses Golf Ball's presence and agrees with Fanny to turn around. Later, they find another emerald and spend some time digging away from the approaching lava. Ruby smells the fresh air and Golf Ball upwards and turns around. She and her team reach the surface and Snowball gives her a hi-five. She is killed by the lava shortly afterwards.

In "The Escape from Four", Ruby is recovered, along with the many other contestants who died and can be seen approaching Four to watch him struggle at sucking up Spongy. Ruby gets scared as they get closer but gets transfixed by Loser when he appears from Spongy's holes. She later considers switching to TPOT but is convinced to stay on BFB by Four offering A BFB as a prize, making her one of the fourteen contestants to continue competing on BFB. She, along with Four and her thirteen opponents, are transported by Two to an unknown area to compete.

In "X Marks the Spot", Ruby is placed on the Four Colored Team and comforts Bubble when she is nervous about being on the same team as Leafy. She is then confused as to why Blocky is on the opposite team despite them both being red. In the contest, Ruby pulls out a chest containing the FreeSmart Supervan and drives it to where X is. Her team ends up losing the contest when she has to turn around to pick up Teardrop. The lasso holding X snaps as she turns the van around, causing him to land by the X Colored Team. In the stinger ending, she picks up Teardrop so that they can go shopping.

In "Take the Tower", Ruby is up for elimination with the rest of her teammates. She survives, but just barely with 4,644 votes. During the challenge, Ruby and her teammates decide on how to get into the other team's tower. Ruby helps out her team by supplying them with Flower petals that she bought while they went shopping. She also attempts to throw a rock at the other team's tower, but it falls down a cliff. She later fights with Taco on the extended bracelet. She manages to smack Taco off but then falls herself. In the stinger, she picks up Lollipop, Leafy, and Woody in the FreeSmart SuperVan, and sings, annoying Lollipop.

In "How Loe Can You Grow?", Ruby and Leafy won't stop singing which annoys Lollipop, until the radio randomly gets fixed. Lollipop enthusiastically suggests listening to real music, which Ruby reluctantly decides to do. After having the van stopped by Four, Ruby tells Lollipop how they got home hours ago, but kept driving cause she wanted more time to sing with Leafy. In the challenge, Ruby alters the sun's rays to X's garden, which turns her into a lens, making the aloe vera grow, giving her team 1 point. Ruby then burns an aloe vera plant, taking away two points from her team. Ruby was later shocked by Woody's death. Ruby asks where her team's spaceship came from, noticing it's made out of cardboard. Her team was up for elimination since the Have Nots spaceship caused the aloe vera to grow taller then Four.

In "A Taste of Space", Ruby is eliminated with 7,573 votes, getting beat by Gelatin by 96 votes. Ruby begs Four to let her stay in the game, to which Four declines and sends her to BRB. Ruby can be seen on The Sun as an animation error after her elimination. In the stinger, she, Balloony, and Spongy all scream in the BRB.

In "Let's Raid the Warehouse", Ruby can be heard along with Balloony, Spongy, and Loser in the BRB.

In "Who Stole Donut's Diary?", "Fashion For Your Face!", and "The Hidden Contestant", Ruby can be seen in the BRB.

In "The Tweested Temple", Ruby can be seen in the BRB. She is irritated when she receives another Purple Face advertisement for temple tours and blocks it.

In "B.F.B. = Back From Beginning", Ruby is released from the BRB, along with the other eliminated contestants. For the challenge, Ruby occupies the BFB 6 portion. She tells Teardrop that she has to take the twinkle from her and then give it back. So Teardrop looks at her to get the twinkle. Ruby says that she was instructed to make it difficult for the contestants to lose the twinkle, but wants the twinkle again, and looks at Teardrop to get it back. She then points Teardrop to the next challenge.

In "SOS (Save Our Show)", in order to earn more money for the show, Ruby suggests splitting BFB into two shows. The scene then cuts to Gaty, Saw, and Pin on TPOT, and Ruby remembers that they already did that.
