Robloxian

ROBLOXians are the characters that users of ROBLOX play as. Players on ROBLOX can use their ROBLOXians to interact with the world around them, and generally move around games. ROBLOXians have a head, a torso, 2 arms and 2 legs, they can wear Heads, Faces, Hats, T-Shirts, Shirts, Pants and Gear. They can also equip. A ROBLOXian can only die in two ways, if they fall down a certain distance from off the map where once the certain distance is reached, the ROBLOXian is killed immediately, or if their head and torso is separated by having a neck joint removed. This type of death happens when the health of said ROBLOXian reaches 0 or by resetting or with anything that removes joints, such as lethal explosions.

Early ROBLOXian
The early ROBLOXian is the same as 1.0 but the head is not cylindrical, it is instead a sphere that is one stud in front of the actual torso and the head is down. It should also be noted that this model used two torso parts (notice the separate colors), while newer versions have only one.

ROBLOXian 1.0
The first ROBLOXian had round studs and no moving limbs. In 2007, the first ROBLOXian with moving limbs was created and implemented; however, the ROBLOXians looked like the original design, save for the animations. Shirts and pants made the limbs look separate, and then limbs got separated altogether. A new shaped head, often referred to as the "shiny head", was added to the ROBLOXian in 2009, with its name originating to the tremendous amount of glare emitted from the head.

In March 2011, a new update was added that gave the Red Roblox Cap to male players and Pinktastic Hair to female players when they registered at that time.

ROBLOXian 2.0


ROBLOXian 2.0 package is a package available for . This was the first package on ROBLOX for players to try out for their ROBLOXian. This package was met with severe criticism because of "online daters" (OD'ers) using this package.

ROBLOXian 3.0
ROBLOXian 3.0 packages are starter packages for users that have registered an account in 2014 or later. Users could choose between the Man package or the Woman package. Soon after, the starter Man package was changed to include a hair-type hat that costed, a blue and black shirt with a motorcycle print and dark green jeans. The Woman package on the other hand, was given grey striped shirt with a denim jacket and a pair of pink jeans. These packages were introduced in 2013, but costed. The price was decreased for the new packages to, and finally they were available for free. This series of packages also has a negative association, as ROBLOXian 3.0 is default for new users and is seen as amateurish.

ROBLOXian 4.0
On March 2, 2016, ROBLOXian 4.0 packages became the packages for users that they automatically receives when they sign up, depending on which gender they choose. They are free packages and resemble an updated ROBLOXian 2.0. Man and Woman variants are available in the Catalog as a free purchase to all users.

R15 Body
The R15 Body, or Avatar, is a new beta test playermodel. Instead of the regular 6 joints, it uses 15, allowing for more fluid animation. R15 was officially announced on the blog. Beta testing for this new feature came out on February 18, 2016. The user can turn R15 on without scripts in ROBLOX Studio; instead they can simply toggle it on the Configure page.
