 * Gosalyn Mallard/Quiverwing Quack (voiced by Candi Milo) - Gosalyn Christine Waddlemeyer Mallard is Darkwing and Adeline's adopted daughter. While not much of her backstory is known, we know her parents died when she was young, so she was sent off to live with her grandfather, Professor Waddlemeyer, in his lab. She was practically raised in the Waddlemeyer Lab. After several years, three of Taurus Bulba's lackeys (Hammerhead Hannigan, Hoof, and Mouth) murdered Professor Waddlemeyer, making Gosalyn an orphan. She was sent to live at the St. Canard Orphanage. In 1991, the same lackeys who killed her grandfather kidnapped her for the code to the Waddlemeyer, but Darkwing and Adeline saved her. After Bulba was defeated, Darkwing and Adeline adopted Gosalyn. Gosalyn is very tomboyish and loves sports. She plays Hockey, Baseball, and Soccer, but dreams to play Football. When she feels Darkwing and Adeline cannot defeat a villain, she suits up as her Alter-Ego, Quiverwing Quack. In this persona, she shoots arrows of various kinds at enemies. She is 15 years old (born ???? ??, 1982, but cannot age much due to cartoon agelessness).
 * Honker Muddlefoot/Arrow Kid (voiced by Katie Leigh) - Herbert "Honker" Skipper Muddlefoot Jr. is Herb and Binkie Muddlefoot's younger son who lives beside Darkwing and Adeline's house on Avian Way. He is best friends with Gosalyn Mallard, and hopes he can be her boyfriend someday. He met Darkwing and Adeline while they were in their Alter-Ego uniforms. Soon, DW and Adeline decided Honker could be trusted with their secret. Honker wasn't very surprised, as he sensed they were the same people. He has an older brother, Tank Muddlefoot, who constantly bullies him, but he has recently learned to stand up to Tank. Honker is very smart and can't do anything mathematical without checking his calculations at least twice. When Gosalyn goes out as Quiverwing Quack, Honker goes along as her sidekick, Arrow Kid. In this persona, he can also shoot arrows (something he discovered he was very good at) and hands Quiverwing arrows when she asks. He is 15 years old (born ???? ??, 1982, but cannot age much due to cartoon agelessness).
 * Red Fraggle (performed by Karen Prell) - Scarlet "Red" Rose Fraggle is the first sidekick Darkwing and Adeline hired after LP's death. She was born and raised in Fraggle Cave, until one day when war arose between Fraggle Cave and Fraggle Rock. The Rock Army killed over half of the Cave Fraggles, and when Scarlet realized this, she took action and defeated the Rock Army. Afterwards, she fled to Fraggle Rock, and became close friends with four Fraggles (Gobo, Mokey, Wembley, and Boober). She and Wembley became close instantly and accidentally got Scarlet (now nicknamed Red) pregnant. When the Fraglet was born, she was named Violeto Rose-Choice Fraggle. In the 2000's Red was kidnapped by Dr. Reginald Bushroot and was used as an unwilling Guinea Pig. She was saved by Darkwing and Adeline in 2009 and was hired as their sidekick. She is very tomboyish and plays Rock Hockey (a Fraggle sport). She loves the 1980's and wears Bangles on her arms and tail, fishnet gloves on her hands, and leg warmers on her legs. She is 29 years old (born January 10th, 1973, but cannot age much due to cartoon agelessness).
 * Gordon Shumway (performed by Paul Fusco) - Gordon NoProblem Shumway is the second sidekick Darkwing and Adeline hired after LP's death. He was born and raised in the city of East Velcro on the planet Melmac. Unfortunately, Melmac blew up the day before he could go on his first date with his girlfriend, Rhonda. The explosion sent him hurtling through space until he crash landed on Earth. He spent four years (1986 - 1990) hiding with the Tanner family until the ATF (Alien Task Force) came and kidnapped him. He stayed at the ATF Base until 2009, when he managed to run away. He came to a stop at Darkwing and Adeline's tower. Darkwing agreed to not report him to the ATF so he could sort things out. Citizens of St. Canard began to grow suspicious of Gordon and reported an alien to the ATF. Darkwing and Gordon talked things out with the ATF and they agreed that Gordon meant no harm to anyone, so he was declared no longer illegal. Gordon is comedic and humorous. He is a music lover, as he has a collection of custom cassette tapes. He acts a bit queer, but everyone loves him for it. He is 265 years old (born October 28, 1756).
 * Michael Jackson (actor unknown) - Michael Joe Jackson is the third and probably most prominent sidekick Darkwing and Adeline hired after LP's death. To keep his before-show biography short, he was born in Gary, Indiana and was in show business from the start. He started in the Jackson 5, a group consisting of his brothers, and went on to become a solo artist. He made Thriller, the world's best-selling album, and many other albums. Unfortunately, others were jealous of his immense popularity that they made up false stories about him in tabloid magazines, and some went farther to sue him for false allegations too horrible and false to mention. After a long but triumphant trial in 2005, Michael was exhausted. In 2009, he had fully regained his strength, and decided to go on a 50-show tour in London. On June 25, 2009, Michael went to his bedroom after rehearsals to find a giant portal. He tried to escape but couldn't. He was sucked in to find himself in St. Canard. Darkwing decided he could stay until he figured out how to get home. Darkwing got a call to defeat Bushroot and left to fight him, but Michael followed. Darkwing watched in awe when Michael started to fight Bushroot, and declared him his sidekick. Michael is kind and gentle and loving to almost everybody. He excels at singing and dancing. If you push him too far, you will see his mean side (and it is NOT pretty). He is 63 years old (born August 29, 1958).
