Charrie basics.[/ul][/font][/i]
age: Unknown, seemingly a child.
species: Dragon
birthplace: Dreamfinder's Imagination
Ride Journey into Imagination
title:
"One little spark of Imagination!"
why: Why'd you pick this character? (minimum 2 sentences) I picked this character because I have adored the little dragon ever since I saw him several years ago at Epcot's Imagination Pavilion. The ideas that Figment presented helped me become who I am today. I also chose Figment because I know a great deal about his history, his personality, and found that I could RP him much better than any of the normal characters from the animated shows and movies.

Original charrie analysis. (Everything must be in your own words! Please be thorough.)[/ul][/font][/i]
history: Figment was created by the Dreamfinder a few years back from a spark of his imagination, brought together by a chain of lyrics that described his appearance. Figment was extremely childish and played games with Dreamfinder at first, but they eventually became the best of friends. Figment constantly idolized his creator for all of the brilliant ideas that came into his mind, and Figment did all he could to do the same. While the Dreamfinder could imagine things into reality - create Sparks, it was called - Figment could only do it if the Dreamfinder was with him. One fateful night, Figment awoke from a bad dream and seeked out the Dreamfinder for consolation, but the Dreamfinder could not be found. At first, Figment stayed optimistic and happy, thinking that the Dreamfinder had simply gone to look for something. After a few days, however, Figment started to get nervous. He left the park in search of Dreamfinder, looking everywhere he knew to look...but the Dreamfinder never reappeared. For the first time ever, Figment was sad. Figment returned to the park with a heavy heart, tears flowing down his cheeks. Fortunately, an intelligent professor named Nigel Channing arrived a week later and helped Figment to fill the void that he had inside of him due to Dreamfinder's disappearance. Nigel managed to show Figment that he could create Sparks with anyone, not just the Dreamfinder. For Figment, life has become simple and happy again. It will be up to the chain of events in this world to shape the rest of Figment's history.
ambitions:Figment's single ambition is to get everyone to use their Imaginations to create Sparks they can use to change the world.
strengths && abilities: Since he is an embodiment of Imagination itself, he has the ability to perform feats that would normally be impossible in reality. Good examples of these are phase-shifting out of existence (temporary invisibility), conjuration of objects, and minor space distortion in a room-sized area.
flaws: Figment, as an embodiment of Imagination, tends not to be very predictable when using his abilities. Most of his abilities, such as conjuration and space distortion, are impossible to accomplish without another character imagining the idea with him to create a Spark. Without assistance or friends around, Figment cannot defend himself.
Figment also has some personality flaws. He is often too optimistic and trusting, and can be easily manipulated by villains and baddies due to his gullibility. He sees everything as a game, and treats it as harmless fun even if the one doing it with him is causing mayhem with it.
likes: Imagination, freedom, every kind of game imaginable, new ideas, new friends, dancing, singing, laughing, performing pranks and practical jokes, and helping others.
dislikes: Closed-mindedness, people who don't believe in imagination, and people that he can readily tell are bad.
fears: Lightning, horror stories, Edgar Allen Poe, losing friends, and losing Imagination itself.
what makes this character unique: Figment was created from Imagination, which gives him a completely different perspective of the world.
RP SAMPLE: It was a dark and stormy night at the Imagination Pavilion, where Figment made his home. Rain pattered down the sides of the triangular glass building, and thunder roared ominously in the background. Figment was trying his best to fall asleep through the storm, but was not very successful. He laid underneath the covers to hide from the storm, his body suddenly shivering with fright as a bolt of lightning cracked through a tree outside and turned all of the leaves into a smoldering pile of soot.
"W-w-why did it have to be lightning...?" Figment whimpered, practically paralyzed by fear. He tried to focus on the leaves and not on the lightning as he cautiously hovered out of bed, his tiny pair of wings fluttering actively behind him. He weaved through countless corridors to get to the room he was looking for...Dreamfinder's room. The door itself called out to Figment's imagination: it was splashed with vivid reds, yellows, and purples, showing the swirls of colors that come from the imagination. Figment tapped on the door. "Dreamfinder? I'm scared..." he whispered.
The door creaked open at the same time another bolt of lightning struck, this time causing Figment to soar into the room and straight into the Dreamfinder's arms.
"A-aahh...!" Figment cried, his voice cutting through the sound of the torrential rain outside. "Sorry, Dreamfinder...I just can't stand the lightning..."
"There, there," the Dreamfinder said in a calming voice, his large hands patting Figment's head soothingly. "It's alright. The lightning won't hurt you, Figment. You can stay in here if you really need to."
"Really?! I can?" Figment said, his emotions changing instantly from fear to excitement. "Yay! You won't notice a thing, I promise! Let's see...I'll need a bed, some blankets, ooh! And stuffed animals, lots of 'em! Piled to the ceiling!"
"Calm down, Figment," Dreamfinder chuckled, his eyes closing briefly as he helped Figment create a bed. Figment twirled around the determined location, his mind racing through all the details of his bed...and within moments, the bed had literally popped into existence. Figment tucked himself in under the covers once more, this time with the Dreamfinder sleeping in a bed right next to him. With Dreamfinder's comfort, Figment managed to fall asleep.
