Phighters are playable characters within the PHIGHTING! universe.
Gameplay
Lore
Biology
- All Phighters possess some form of horns, except in cases where they are removed, such as Hyperlaser.
- Phighters sleep in netted beds as to not disturb their horns.
- Phighters sometimes engage in horn fights.
- Phighter horns are bone, and can be styled similarly to nails (e.g. painting them, Rocket carving his horns to look like Zuka's). Carving horns does require maintenance - it is not a permanent alteration.
- Younger Phighters can regrow their horns quickly, whereas older Phighters will not at all. If the entirety of one’s horns is removed, they will die.
- Phighters do not excrete waste other than sweat.
- Phighters can get sick, they are organic beings and need to be cared for/take care of themselves.
- The average lifespan of Phighters is similar to the lifespan of humans.
- Despite this, many die young due to the violent nature of the world around them.
- There are no biological differences between regions.
- Phighters do not need to sleep or eat, although they still can if they choose.
- Phighters do not have a sex or reproductive organs, they only have preferred pronouns.
- Phighters can only reproduce through The Spawn.
- Each Phighter is born with a gear, and instinctively knows how to use it.
- There can be duplicates of gears.
Phighter roster
There are three separate categories to determine what a Phighters intended use is: These categories are Melee, Ranged, and Support. There are (as of 2023) a total of 13 Phighters, with 1 new ranged Phighter being confirmed later. There are currently 5 melee, 4 ranged, and 4 support. The melee Phighters are Sword, Skateboard, Biograft, Katana, and Ban Hammer in this category. The next category, ranged, consists of Rocket, Slingshot, Hyperlaser, and Shuriken. Lastly, the support Phighters; Medkit, Boombox, Subspace and Vine Staff.

- Too similar to other kits in the base list.
- Coil
- Complicated planned moveset.
Phighters in development:
Phighters have been teased through various means on the Boggio community server, or in-game. Following Playtest 1, a fill-in-the-blank roadmap was given to the public, which reveals the Phighters of the game's base roster. Note: The list of teasers does not include the ones given to server boosters. The fill-in-the-blank is not finalized, changes may occur.
