Twenty-One, or 21, is a character that is made of 21 blocks. She is voiced by Emma Tate.
Appearance[]
Twenty-One wears a camping luggage and a green Tyrolean hat with three rainbow coloured "feathers", because she is 3x7. She wears a purple stepmask because she is the 6th step squad, and two boots, apricot and red and white socks. She can also be seen holding a walking stick.
Personality[]
Twenty-One loves to explore numbers and is great at helping new Numberblocks figure themselves out.
As shown in Twenty-One and On, she cannot discover who Twenty-Three is, as they refuse to shift any blocks, saying, "I am happy being me (Twenty and Three)!". She gets disappointed and says that she wants to explore more now instead of letting Twenty-Three be a compound. Twenty takes off the Three and says, "Well, I've got a bus back there!".

Trivia[]
Compound (Twenty and One)[]
- 21 was the first Numberblock to have more than two eyes and one mouth.
- She was also the first Numberblock to have two faces.
- The fact that the 21 in I Can Count to Twenty is just 20 and 1 conjoined reflects how the Alphablocks form digraphs and trigraphs in their show (For example: Q conjoins herself with U to form the digraph "qu"; H, with C, S, and T, form "ch", "sh", and "th" respectively; I, G, and H form the trigraph "igh"; two O's conjoin with each other to form "oo", etc.).
Figured-Out (Twenty-One's own character)[]
- Twenty-One is the first Numberblock to exceed Twenty.
- She is the second character to have a permanent step mask. The first such character was Fifteen.
- One, Three, Six and Ten had step masks in Step Squads; but the masks weren't permanent.
- It's possible that Twenty-One had an early design concept before her final one. Her appearance as sketched in the storyboard of We're Going On A Square Hunt (viewable in this compilation) looks quite different. In it, she has no hat or backpack; her face is on the bottom of her blocks; and her hair resembles Seven's.
- It's also possible that the storyboard was made before the episode Twenty-One and On.
- She is the first multiple of 7 to be female.
- Her step-mask is navy and not indigo for unknown reasons.
- Her boots are slightly different from Fifteen's, Twenty-Eight's, and Thirty-Six's boots, as they resemble hiking boots.
- Twenty-One was the first compound Numberblock figured-out.
- Her story board design has hair, but when she takes off her hat in The Treasure of Hexagon Island she is bald.
- She is the largest Numberblock to not have a vertical arrangement.
