  • Pepper (voiced by Kai Zen) — One of Eureka's best friends. She's courageous and has super-strength.
  • Barry (voiced by Devin Trey Campbell) — One of Eureka's best friends. He's an artist and a drummer.
  • Murphy (vocal effects provided by Fred Tatasciore) — Eureka's pet woolly mammoth. Eureka adopted Murphy after saving him from being trapped under a fallen tree branch.
