— Woody, (Trying to speak) "SOS (Save Our Show)"
|
Woody is a male contestant in Battle for Dream Island, IDFB, and Battle for BFB.
In Battle for Dream Island, Woody competed on the Squishy Cherries until his elimination in "Bridge Crossing" with nine votes, being the fourth contestant eliminated, placing 21st overall due to Flower, Spongy, and Blocky rejoining in later episodes, and David joining the competition in "Reveal Novum".
In Battle for Dream Island Again, Woody had a chance to join at the start of the season with him receiving 266 votes which was not enough to join the season, and he was not present at the time of the results, thus disqualifying him. He placed 28th to join the season. However, he avoided being sent to the Tiny Loser Chamber due to being dead at the time. He was eventually recovered in "I'm the Main Character".
In IDFB, Woody is seen as a free character due to being disqualified from BFDIA and therefore avoiding the Locker of Losers.
In Battle for BFDI, Woody competed on Beep until the split in "The Escape from Four", where he stayed with Four and his show.
In Battle for BFB, Woody competed on the Have Nots until the merge in "The Game Has Changed". He was then eliminated in "The Hidden Contestant" with 9,843 votes, placing 6th overall.

Appearance[]
Woody appears to be a thick light brown piece of balsa wood, which is a type of wood used in crafts and woodworking. Despite being a hardwood he is very soft meaning that Woody is very fragile (which was stated by Tennis Ball). He lost a piece of himself after getting kicked by Teardrop and colliding with Rocky in "Take The Plunge Part 1", in which he never gained back, even after being recovered. He also used the worried eyebrows as his default face expression.

Designs[]
Personality[]
BFDI[]
Woody is known for having panophobia (the fear of everything) as well as severe social anxiety (given the fact that he's quite shy and hesitant to talk, such as in "Return of the Hang Glider"), as is the case in BFDI as he was paranoid and always appeared to be nervous. He also gets picked on and pushed around by contestants like Pin, Blocky, and Flower. Despite all of his fears however, he is shown to be quite friendly and described as one of the nicest members in his team even after being tormented constantly.
BFDIA[]
Although not appearing for a while after "Return of the Hang Glider", he eventually gets recovered in "I'm the Main Character". This version of Woody seems to be less afraid of his surroundings unlike BFDI where he has a fear of everything. He seems to manage handling himself while having to face dangerous surroundings, eventually getting used to the dangers around. During the same episode, once he gets saved by Pin swiftly giving him her mech suit, he shows pride in himself and feels more enjoyable around everything, despite still trying to have control over the suit. He also seems to be a quick learner in this season by controlling his sweat and mastering the suit.
As stated before though, he still does have some intense fear left. His acknowledgement for danger has started to grow, finally realizing how much of a horrible world Goiky could be with all of BFDIA's chaos. To summarize, this Woody is a more positive one, despite still having a few issues with his fear.
Battle for BFDI[]
Woody isn't as paranoid as he used to be and does a better job at socializing with his team. Although he is still known for being afraid and insecure, he seems to have grown more confident over time, even to the point of making his first kill in "The Liar Ball You Don't Want". He is a loyal teammate and tries to be helpful, but his fear often gets in the way of helping his team.
Woody is known for speaking incoherently, often needing translation from Four, though at times he would utter short sentences. Because of his lack of screen time in the first season and his absence afterwards, he only started really speaking in BFB.
Battle for BFB[]
Woody can get angry when he is given a box to hide in as a gift in "Let's Raid The Warehouse". However, this is because it was insulting to him and he did not want it, alluding that he is becoming braver than before. His bravery was proven further in "Fashion For Your Face!" where he managed to climb a mountain without any fears, ceasing his fear of heights.
"Who Stole Donut's Diary?" reveals that Woody's mind often exaggerates everything he sees to be scary, likely explaining his constant paranoia. In said episode, he thought Four threatened to eat his team if they didn't protect the diary and confuses Leafy jump roping with Taco as her swinging around snakes with Taco.
In "The Game Has Changed", Woody has much less fear than before, and carries on the legacy of Blocky's Funny Doings International, making it Woody's Funny Doings International. In "The Tweested Temple", however, Woody becomes uncomfortable when he realizes how violent and mean-spirited his pranks have been, and in "The Hidden Contestant", decides to stop pranking altogether.
Woody has also shown to speak in real sentences, such as in "SOS (Save Our Show)". Here, he shows a new side to him where he attempts to help Flower overcome her fear of bugs. Thus, getting a new show where he can help anyone who's afraid of something.

- Woody was the 2nd BFDI character made (after Firey), as shown in carykh's video "First BFDI Drawing EVER!".
- In "Take the Plunge: Part 1", Woody shows possible signs of love for Teardrop after Leafy intervenes for Woody to go out and live his life.
- He is easily breakable: Literally by chips falling off of him, and figuratively by his timid personality. This is because he is balsa wood, which is a wood known for being easily breakable.
- In "Get Digging", he has a cameo of his corpse floating in the water.
- Because of his appearance, Woody is often mistaken for a slice of bread.

- It's possible that he hid behind Spongy.
- It's also possible that being in the TLC is what made him afraid of the color gray. However, the Announcer is also gray, making this confusing, although he might only be afraid of locations that are mainly gray.
