River Butterfly
“ | We all— Ow! Okay, I deserved that. Look, if the queen were here, she'd fix all this with her magic! Well, she's not here! But that doesn't mean we should cower in fear. We still have each other, and together, we can defeat this monster! ...You're right. I stink at this. But right now, I'm all you've got and you're all I've got. We don't need magic to do extraordinary things. Dentist! Construction worker! Remember when you two worked together to dislodge that tooth-shaped rock in the road? Blacksmith! You worked with the turtle sanctuary to make iron shells for the turtles in need! And you two weirdos hold the record for the longest staring contest! We all can do something unique and helpful, and that's Mewni's greatest strength! And it's what Queen Moon loves the most about all of you! So what do you say? Let's show that monster what happens when it messes with Mewmans! | „ |

Equipment
- Spear: Weapon River uses in combat to fight large monsters has the general long reach capabilities of a spear.
- Staff: River wields a staff with a crescent moon-shaped crystal ornament at the tip that is capable of firing off lightning blasts.
- Dimensional Scissors: Dimensional scissors are used for traveling between dimensions. By cutting anywhere in the air with the desired dimension to travel to in mind, the scissors create a portal. The portal itself usually reflects the designated dimension, like the portal to the Amethyst Arcade being pixelated and the portal to the Scum Bucket looking like blue waves. After someone passes through the portal, the portal either closes by itself or it can manually be closed by someone. The scissors can also be used as weapons, as demonstrated by Hekapoo. As revealed in "Deep Dive" and "Ludo, Where Art Thou?", if a scissors user does not have a specific destination in mind when using them, the portal that they open leads to a dead end.
