Ferb is the brains behind Phineas' gadgets and contraptions. He builds the stuff that makes summer fun last longer and throws in a few choice words along the way, if he feels like it.

She is usually seen talking on her cell phone to Stacy Hirano, or less often Jenny and acts much like a stereotypical teenager when not trying to stop her brothers' antics. As the quirky older sister, Candace thinks it's her job to keep mom up to date on Phineas & Ferb's antics. Juggling her brothers and teenage life is difficult, but Candace is always finding new ways to make it work.
Perry the Platypus / Agent P
Pet of the titular characters, he is a secret agent under the guise of a mindless animal that foils the schemes of Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Also known as Agent P.This pet platypus hides a secret life as crime- fighting agent p! Looking simple and innocent is just Perry’s way of keeping his cover as he fights against Dr. Doofenshmirtz.
Perry the Platypus, codenamed Agent P, is Phineas and Ferb's pet platypus, who, unknown to his owners, lives a double life as a secret agent for the O.W.C.A.

Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz

Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz, or Doof for short, is a mad scientist hailing from the country of Druelselstein. He is the head of Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated. He tends not to be evil in the traditional sense, but rather overly dramatic, eccentric and generally clueless. His usual lair is an office building that he apparently owns, though he's worked from other locations when necessary for his plans. He attempts to wreak generally "evil" havoc and assert his rule across "the entire Tri-State Area and the world!" Despite true dedication to this mission nearly all of his plans have been thwarted by his nemesis Perry the Platypus. (Doofenshmirtz has become so used to this foiling that he tends to feel empty or upset on the few occasions where Perry does not stand in his way.) Dr. Doofenshmirtz seems to quite enjoy musical numbers, and has performed songs about "impressing his professor" and how he hates his brother among other subjects. Though his plans are frequently clueless at best and his doctorate was purchased off the internet, some of his inventions (almost always suffixed with "-inator") have been fairly impressive. Online, Doofenshmirtz goes by the name of StrudelCutie4427.
Major Monogram
Agent P's boss at The Agency.Major Francis Monogram or, as he likes to be known, simply Major Monogram (due to the fact that people often tease him about his first name) is Agent P's commanding officer, and gives him his mission in each day.
