This is a list of characters for the manga series Dr. Stone.
Senku Ishigami (石神 千空, Ishigami Senkū) is a teenage prodigy who excels in multiple fields of science, with a special love of astronomy and space exploration. After awakening in the "Stone World", he sets out to restore civilization by reinventing their lost technology and discovering a "cure" for the petrification. Though somewhat arrogant, he is very noble and kind-hearted as he considers science as a means to elevate all people and has unshakable faith in his friends. After faking his death to keep Tsukasa from hunting him, Senku befriends the residents of Ishigami Village and becomes their chief, finding out that he is a legend in the village's community at the same time thanks to the influence through one of the villagers' ancestors, who happens to be Senku's late adoptive father Byakuya, one of the original petrification survivors. Following Hyoga's defeat and Tsukasa entering cryosleep, Senku was able to get the remnants of the Empire of Might to merge with the Kingdom of Science where he leads the Five Wise Generals. He has Albert Einstein's formula (E = mc2) as his trademark.
Taiju Oki (大木 大樹, Ōki Taiju) is Senku's best friend, whom Senku refers to as a "big oaf" or "musclehead". He has incredible strength and seemingly limitless stamina with the awareness of a pacifist who's never thrown a punch in his life, preferring to turn the other cheek instead to prevent any assailants from hurting his friends. He is in love with Yuzuriha and will do anything to take care of her, especially when she's in danger. Taiji is a typical high schooler and simply believes smartphones are an important tool for civilization. After Senku fakes his death to keep Tsukasa from hunting them, Taiju and Yuzuriha infiltrate the Tsukasa Empire to keep tabs on Tsukasa before rejoining Senku in Ishigami Village. As a member of the Power Team, Taiju leads its farming division while assisted by Yō and Magma.
Yuzuriha Ogawa (小川 杠, Ogawa Yuzuriha) is Taiju's love interest, a cheerful and kind-hearted young woman. She enrolled in her high school's handicrafts club to pursue her goal of becoming a fashion designer and is exceptionally talented at arts like stitching and clothwork. Moments before the petrification light, Taiju is about to confess to Yuzuriha, so she patiently waits to return them officially when the quest to rebuild civilization is resolved. During the "Vs. Tsukasa" arc, Tsukasa takes Yuzuriha captive. Senku has her and Taiju spy within the Tsukasa Empire as part of his plan till the next year when the cell phone is buried in Senku's fake gravestone. During the "Age of Exploration" arc, Yuzuriha started a clothing store joining the Craftsmanship and Development Team. She and Taiju got married after the Moon-Landing project.
Tsukasa Shishio (獅子王 司, Shishiō Tsukasa) is a youth who rose to fame in mixed martial arts as "The Strongest Primate High Schooler," being physically powerful enough to kill a lion with one punch. After being reawakened by Senku to save him and Taiju from a lion pack, Tsukasa wears the pelt of the male lion he killed while hunting for Senku and Taiju. He resents adults due to his experience with one who prevented him from gathering seashells for his comatose sister Mirai, viewing the current adults as avaricious corruption while seeking to create a new society in the "Stone World" by only reviving young people. Tsukasa serves as the primary antagonist of the early story arcs, appearing to kill Senku when he refuses to back down from restoring their civilization before proceeding to establish his Empire of Might. Through the revived Gen to confirm Senku's death, Tsukasa remained in the dark about his opposition's survival until he learned it from Hyoga. During the "Communications" arc, Tsukasa accepted a truce with Senku in exchange for the theoretical revival of his sister, after which Hyoga betrayed him. The critical injuries Tsukasa suffered from the fight forced him to be placed in cryosleep with his remaining forces absorbed into the Kingdom of Science. However, he does get to see Mirai get restored to good health beforehand. When Tsukasa is revived, he sides with Senku accompanied on his trip to the United States of America while still striving for a morally pure world where the innocent will not be exploited.
Gen Asagiri (あさぎり ゲン (浅霧 幻), Asagiri Gen) is another person from the "old world", Gen is a silver-tongued self-help guru who styles himself as a mentalist. Gen wears an overcoat over his yukata and is always barefoot except in the winter. He was revived by Tsukasa who wanted an ally who could think like Senku and confirm his death. But being self-serving, Gen ends up defecting to the Kingdom of Science after witnessing Senku's accomplishments. He is confident in his tactics as a proficient manipulator, although this facade is not always present as Gen appears to react freely in shock whenever Senku brings up his next planned invention. When the Kingdom of Science and the remnants of the Empire of Might merge following the defeat of Hyoga and Tsukasa entering cryosleep, Gen becomes one of the Five Wise Generals.
Chrome (クロム, Kuromu) is a youth from Ishigami Village who named himself the village's self-proclaimed sorcerer when stumbled upon the basics of science and mistook them as sorcery, wanting to cure Ruri. His hobby of rock collecting and managing chemical reactions stems from the Hundred Tales. Chrome later learns about the scientific wonders of the old world and becomes Senku's partner as he helps him rediscover humanity's scientific legacy. When the Kingdom of Science and the remnants of the Tsukasa Empire merge, Chrome becomes one of the Five Wise Generals and a part of the Craftsmanship and Development Team. He has had multiple failed attempts to confess his affection to Ruri, until finally proposing to her (in an underwhelming manner) and getting married in the 4D manga.
Kohaku (コハク) is the strongest warrior of Ishigami Village and Ruri's younger sister, a tomboyish young woman who is exceptionally strong, agile, and sharp-eyed. She is the first villager Senku meets after awakening in the "Stone World" and becomes one of his staunchest allies as part of the Kingdom of Science's Power Team. A running gag is when her femininity is insulted for being called a gorilla or lioness. She shows good caring towards her friends and comrades, particularly Suika. Kohaku enjoys the concept of romance and does not mind the idea of being betrothed to Senku despite his lack of interest. She once kissed Senku as part of a distraction on Treasure Island.
Suika (スイカ) is a young girl from Ishigami Village who wears a watermelon on her head to cover up her "fuzzy sickness". She ends up gravitating to Senku, helping him as he is the first person not to judge her for her eccentricities before he outfitted her watermelon helmet with customized lenses. Suika often helps Senku out by being a scout for different missions where she can withdraw into her watermelon helmet. Following the merging of the Kingdom of Science and the Tsukasa Empire, Suika became a member of the Intelligence Team. After the second worldwide petrification event, Suika is the only person to be released as part of a contingency put in place by the Kingdom of Science; as she grows into a teenager in the following seven years, she works alone to recreate the revival fluid, successfully bringing Senku and the others back.
Ryusui Nanami is the patriarch and youngest son of Nanami Conglomerate's owner who was revived by Senku in the "Age of Exploration" arc to be part of the Kingdom of Science as one of the Five Wise Generals. His personality is akin to that of a self-indulgent rich boy fueling his ambition to earn success through his own talent which Minami finds rather annoying and in contrast to Tsukasa's preference. Ryusui spends his allowance on model ships and is active in sailing any type of ship. As an expert sailor, he was made the Captain of the Perseus which he helped build as part of the Craftsmanship and Development Team. Like Senku, Ryusui has the drive to rebuild society aside from his proclamation as leader of the new world.
Recurring characters

When Tsukasa was revived and had some differences with Senku, two factions arose. The Kingdom of Science (科学王国, Kagaku Ōkoku) was made by Senku to recreate the scientific achievements in the world. The Tsukasa Empire (司帝国, Tsukasa Teikoku) was made so the strong could rule.

Homura assisted Hyoga in the first attack on Ishigami Village where she snuck into the village and set fire to some of the huts. Her gymnastics prowess means her speed and agility are more than a match to Kohaku's. During the "Communications" arc, she did some surveillance on Ishigami Village. When Homura tried to sabotage the radio tower, Magma and Kinro cut the tree enabling Kohaku to catch her. Homura did manage to cave-in the Miracle water obscure the revival fluid.

During the "Communications" arc, Ukyo attacked Chrome, Gen, and Magma while setting up telephone poles which ended with him capturing Chrome. When Senku and Gen made contact with him, Ukyo agreed to their terms in exchange for a "no death" rule due to Tsukasa shattering petrified humans and suspecting that Hyoga had sacrificed their fellow warriors to the poisonous gas.

Yō is a former police officer who was revived by Tsukasa and one of the Empire of Might members who quickly joined Senku's new Kingdom of Science as a member of the Power Team where he occasionally butting heads with Magma. His most noticeable feature is a massive piece of stone covering his right eye which he later removed and gave it one of Tsukasa's men when faking his death upon Chrome's escape (though the stone eyepatch reappeared on him in later appearances). Then he worked with Yuzuriha to rebuild the petrified humans that Tsukasa shattered. As a former police officer, he can use both tonfa and an expert marksman, thus being granted by Senku a gun.
Francois is the butler and chef of Ryusui who is unsure what gender Francois is.

During the "Communications" arc, Mirai was restored by Senku and the formula also healed Mirai. She was sad to see her brother go into cryosleep. During the "New America" arc, Mirai found that everybody lost their scars and used the Petrification Device to heal Tsukasa.
Sai Nanami (七海 SAI, Nanami Sai)
The prodigal oldest son of Nanami Conglomerate's owner was revived by his younger brother in the "Europe" arc. Despite being an expert on video game IT who can crack algorithm codes, he ran away from his family company and fled to a university in India due to seeing Ryusui being too annoying to him before the day of the first full-scale worldwide petrification. In contrast to Ryusui, Sai is a timid and more self-conscious person. He brushes off his talent for quick mental math as nothing special. He became prone to panicking when reuniting with his brother and a world without computers. While bonding with Ryusui in a game of chess, Sai is brought to tears when the computer is finally re-crafted and agrees to tutor the two rookie scientists, Chrome and Suika, to build a two-way rocket plan.
Ishigami Village inhabitants
The inhabitants of Ishigami Village (石神村, Ishigami Mura) are descended from the surviving astronauts of the International Space Station who were off-world at the time when the petrification light caused all humans to be petrified. It became the headquarters of the Kingdom of Science. A village chief is chosen from whoever makes it to the final part of the Grand Bout games and wins. When a person becomes the village chief, that person is entitled to a lot of resources from Ishigami Village. Thanks to the late founder, Byakuya, the legendary tales of his adoptive son, Senku became very famous amongst the village's community. Besides Chrome, Kohaku, and Suika, the following are the inhabitants of Ishigami Village:
A large inhabitant of Ishigami Village with a black beard and blonde hair who is the father of Kohaku and Ruri. He was the village chief of Ishigami Village at the time of Senku's reawakening and was part of Ishigami Village's older generation. While Kokuyo and Kohaku have butted heads over different things, he does care for Ruri when she was ill. When Senku wins the Ishigami Village games, he makes him the new village chief.

In addition, he also became part of the Power Team during the merging of the Kingdom of Science and the Tsukasa Empire. He loved his little brother, when he learned in both sadness and anger that Ibara had his unwitting servant Kirisame petrified Ginro and Kohaku.
Kinro's younger brother and fellow guardsman is a frivolous young man with a tendency to panic and an overriding sense of self-interest. He rallied all his courage to assist Senku and Chrome in sampling a dose of Sulfurina (スルフリナ, Surufurina), the embodiment of the sulfuric acid required to make antibiotics for Ruri. Ginro becomes part of the Power Team.
Kohaku's older sister and Ishigami Village's high priestess tasked with preserving the Hundred Stories (百物語, Hyaku Monogatari) for posterity. She suffers from a debilitating illness that will likely kill her before adulthood and finding a cure becomes the first goal of Senku's "Kingdom of Science." Senku's team spent most of the first arc obtaining magnets and sulfuric acid to make an antibiotic to cure Ruri. Ruri and Senku had a short-lived marriage when he grabbed the alcohol needed for medicine. Once she is cured of what turned out to be pneumonia, she reveals to everyone including Senku that the latter is a legend amongst the village's community, all comes from the influences from one of the villagers' ancestors, who happens to be Senku's late adoptive father, Byakuya.
An elderly but ripped artisan from Ishigami Village, he becomes a staunch ally and eventually a close friend of Senku and Chrome because their quest for science resonates with his passion for crafting.

As a member of the Power Team following the merging of the Kingdom of Science and the Tsukasa Empire, he takes a liking to Taiju due to his unlimited stamina as seen when Magma watched him tend to the fields where he did not tire out. Magma later learns he is talented in the Mathlympics.
A bald-headed inhabitant of Ishigami Village with great photographic memory and a member of the Power Team. He is often shown shirtless, has an X-scar on top of his head, and is always barefoot. As a baby, Soyuz was originally from an island that Senku named "Treasure Island" before he was cast off, presumably sometime after surviving a hostile takeover caused by Ibara. Soyuz is the son of the leader of his birth kingdom whom Ibara petrified. Following Senku defeating Ibara, Soyuz became the new leader of the Petrification Kingdom.
A fat inhabitant of Ishigami Village who is a residential glutton. He was starting to get tired of fish every day until Senku managed to recreate ramen.

Petrification Kingdom
The Petrification Kingdom (石化王国, Sekka ōkoku) is a kingdom that is located on Treasure Island. Its inhabitants are the descendants of the International Space Station crew. Soyuz came from this island as he was the son of the unnamed leader.
Ibara is the paranoid Minister of the Petrification Kingdom until he usurped the unnamed ruler who was Soyuz's father and used the Petrification Device to petrify him and punish eyewitnesses or outsiders that would put his treachery at risk. When Senku arrived on the island, he got into a tug-of-war with Ibara. Thanks to a trick that Ryusui planned out, Senku used the voice com to frighten Ibara and use the Petrification Device on him. This enabled Soyuz to become the new ruler of the Petrification Kingdom. Ibara is the only villain Senku is not willing to pardon.
Amaryllis is the most beautiful inhabitant of the Petrification Kingdom. She is skilled in gathering ingredients for food and cosmetics. Five years ago, she and some kids tried to leave the island but were stopped by Moz and Kirisame. Amaryllis sides with Senku regarding his plans to overthrow Ibara only for Ibara to use the Petrification Device on everyone. Upon being restored after Senku defeated Ibara, Amaryllis assists Soyuz in restoring the people of the Petrification Kingdom.
Kirisame is a female chief of the Petrification Kingdom who is one of the two strongest warriors. In her first appearance, she was responsible for the petrification of the Perseus' crew. Kirisame is the first to suspect something off about Ibara's intentions of petrifying the whole island and is outraged when the truth comes to light.

Oarashi is a muscular man of the Petrification Kingdom who sports a jackal headdress. While he is strong enough to throw Magma and Kinro, he is no match for Taiju.
Moz is an inhabitant of the Petrification Kingdom and is one of the two strongest warriors. Because of this, he believed himself to be naturally talented at fighting, so he preferred to slack around rather than hone his skills. He has a soft side for girls he finds beautiful or strong like Amaryllis and Kohaku. Moz briefly comes to terms with Senku's allies. Following Ibara's defeat, Moz is restored by Senku at Hyoga's behest and he joins up with the Kingdom of Science.

When he and his fellow astronauts returned to Earth and found what happened, Byakuya led them into establishing Ishigami Village. In addition, Byakuya spent the rest of his natural life panning for Platinum which can be used by Senku when he finally becomes unpetrified to rapidly produce the Revival fluid. By the time Senku woke up, Byakuya was long dead. In the "Village Origins" arc, Senku found a time capsule disk from a glass bottle that Byakuya left him after learning from the Hundred Tales.
