Lucky
Lucky is a little cat that I usually see in my dreams. He is like a sign of comfort and hope for me! He also hides a little star in his scarf!

Joey The Bird
They are a mechanical bird who is agender and likes to go on adventures to commit crimes.

Greggory
It was a stuffy that I carried everywhere until my 20s that actually was thrown away due to an infestation of bed bugs. I miss him dearly

NoNo
Either at the age of 3 or 4, I was at the drugstore with my grandma, and this drugstore had a big rack (it was pretty big compared to little me lol), this big rack had a bunch of cat stuffies. I remember really wanting the tabby one with a pink collar and big green eyes. I asked my grandma if I can get one, and she asked "What will you name her?" while giving me the stuffed animal. I remember saying "NoNo!!!" Super excitedly. NoNo was my best friend, I always had her in my arms while I slept. I always played with her, making her act out my stories with my other stuffed animals. She might not even be a imaginary friend, but she's special to me, she's so special that when I was 6, my dog got ahold on NoNo, ruining the stitching of her mouth, and denting the plastic of her eyes. I was so sad and heart broken : Using little knowledge I had with thread and needle, I tried to fix NoNo's mouth. I still have her after 12 or 13 years. I love you, NoNo <3

The Shape King
Meet the Shape King! He was created when I was 11. I would doodle on Googles drawing a lot during school (using the Polyline tool specifically) and I would create these weird shape creatures, who I imagined this guy was the king of. He was neat, he could transform his body parts into various shapes, such as squares and rectangles to make a castle, or circles and hoops to play basketball! As for why he looks like a cat? well, I just liked cats a lot when I was a little kid, (I still do, I have two currently). I didn't have a lot of friends growing up, so to have a friend who could transform into anything helped fill that void, which I'm really thankful for! Sadly, he doesn't really fill that void anymore for me, but maybe he can still bring some joy to others who discover him.

Robot Dragon
Roughly the size of a schoolbus. Strong enough to rip apart mountains. Glowing with mysterious pink energy. Able to fly without wings. I most clearly remember her eyes, beautiful glowing pink apertures, knowing and steady and merciless. Whenever I was really scared (and usually about to cry about it), but I knew no one would understand why I was scared or what I was scared of, I would imagine my robot dragon ripping apart the architechture or scenery around me. She would destroy it methodically, ripping it all into pieces just for me. She could tear through plaster and metal and earth and stone, all like it was all paper mache. She could destroy anything. I was safe. She never spoke a word, but she didn't need to. We just understood each other. She was so beautiful. I didn't think I would get this emotional writing about her. Thanks for giving her a new home. Peace and quiet will be good for her. Rest will be good for her. I love you, Robot Dragon. Good night.

Mr Shadow and Carla
I moved a lot as a kid after my mom got custody of me, and between watching anime and playing Okage I made up Carla and Mr.Shadow. Carla was a cute cat person based off of toys I had, and Mr.Shadow was inspired by Okage, he only needed two lights to appear in my head to serve as his eyes. My mom and step dad thought it was the creepiest thing. But he was the easiest friend for me to have since l only needed two lights no matter how small near each other to make him show up. I think he helped me feel better about the dark a lot of the time.

Merri
She was my imaginary friend when I was 5. She could change into any forms she wanted to. But this one was her favorite. I'd always see her by the garden, mostly in the evening. She couldn't speak, but her eyes could express much more than her own words, if she had any. She helped me through the worst of times. After I turned 6, she disappeared. I've always wondered where she went off to. But I knew her mission was complete. She never told me her name so I called her Merri, like the word merry, because she always seemed so happy to see me.

Slinky
Slinky was my ferret cat-like friend who stretched his body around my neck like a scarf! He never let me get cold during Winter season and always comforted me by purring when I was sad. He was more of a listener but very wise when he did speak. On adventures in the backyard, he would mostly bounce and roll around to make me laugh, even when it turned night.

Ghosty
I don't really remember much about Ghosty, unfortunately. He was my imaginary friend when I was 5-6 before I decided I had outgrew him and sent him on his merry way after an "emotional" confrontation. All I can remember besides that is that he died in the 1920s and is currently living in Florida with a wife and three kids.

Luna
i was a very lonely kid. even around people i called my friends, i was still constantly outcasted and turned away due to having undiagnosed autism and several physical ailments that made social understanding a constant uphill battle. i had begun to envision the coolest person i could think of, someone to keep me company no matter where i went, to help me navigate a world that i felt foreign in. luna was that person -- guiding me when i was scared or lonely, being someone i looked up to and felt safer around. in retrospect, she was probably one of the earlier signs that i was really into girls, haha. i only really remember her hair. it was dark, with colorful, dyed highlights. i can barely remember her face anymore. it makes me sad that i dont.

Lovey
i've had this little giraffe security blanket since i was about two years old. she's stuck with me ever since -- i tried out a handful of names for her (sunflower is the only one i can really remember, though), but "lovey" was the monicker i always circled back to, likely in part due to my parents referring to the item in a way i mistook to be a name. in the past 15 or so years, her spots have almost completely faded, her threads have frayed and torn, and her body's had to be replaced with a new piece of fabric to keep her intact (the old one had deteriorated after years in the wash, my arms, and admittedly, my mouth when my absentminded nervous chewing got the best of me). despite going off to college soon, i still hold lovey close to me. i'm not quite ready to let her go yet -- even if i'm well old enough top sleep without her with me, i still prefer to for the familiarity. one day, if i do grow faster than she can, i hope my love for her is memorialized here.

All of the dragons
I was obsessed with dragons as a kid. all of the dragons! I read all the dragonology books, would comb my library for books under dragon in the search and played dragons with my friends!! I even started drawing so i could make my own. I would imagine myself as a dragon, or with a dragon as a best friend all the time. I liked how close to nature they were, and how varied and mystical. they really captured my imagination <3 no hard feelings here! I just really loved my dragons.

Funny
This website is actually the the thing that reminded me she existed! Back in 4th grade whenever l'd get bored in class I would imagine her doing tricks for me or the situations she'd be in if she was a real cartoon character. I do have some old drawings of her but I'm too embarrassed to share them.

Timothy
Timothy was a mouse who lived in my pocket - shirt pocket, pants pocket, whatever. He was brave and proud and, for some reason that made sense to a five year old, loved cats. My brother in a fit of older sibling cruelty convinced me our mom ran him over, and that was the end of Timothy the mouse. Rest in peace my little rodent pal.

Echo
Started out as a reflection of me l'd talk to in my mirror! Later on I started daydreaming about a pumpkin shaped jester. She's quite curious and a little bit annoying but asked the questions that I really wanted to know but couldn't ask

Feather
feather was my most beloved character as a child, he was a stand-in for me and had a lot of tragedy happen to him but he was always cheerful despite it

Mr. Wibble
This is Mr. Wibble. He is a Wibble. His favorite color is Wibble, and so is his favorite food and drink.

Spooks Magooks
Honestly... Spooks was originally a way of calming down when I was terrified of the night, their cloak was made with those sticky glow stars you put on ceilings or walls and the head of a glow in the dark moon. They were a scardeycat who gave a major big showboat/duke of randomplaceburg vibes but never had the guts to back it up. They were constantly scared of everything that I thought was scary and helped me realize that there wasn't a reason to be that scared then they sorta... evolved into a personification to help me with staying out of trouble by constantly being nervous and scared of everything that could go wrong. They were a way of making me feel better when bad events happened like losing touch with friends and they were the character that originally got me into writing... here's to you Spooks Magooks. Here's to ya.

Tobias Cogg
As a child I had even more imagination than I do now. Tobias Cogg was a product of that imagination, and the profound loneliness that consumed most of my young life. I usually imagined him talking to me through screens like TVs and tablets, asking about my day and playing games with me, forever chipper and always knowing what to say. Though his unconditional encouragement didn't always work out in my favour, his presence is one of the most memorable things about my childhood. Despite my age, he hasn't truly left me, l'd even say he's grown with me. I hope he lives not only here, but immortalized in my art, and in my mind, forever.

Kat
I used to see kat all the time when i was younger, but i was only able to talk with him at night, in bed. Id stare up at the sky and type in an invisible keyboard and somehow my words would get through to him, and he would reply in the same way. When i turned 8, I started to think it was weird to have an imaginary friend, and so he slowly disappeared. Miss you, Kat.

Brad
I used to be scared of the dark. I thought that there was something under my bed or in my closet that would try and grab me when I went to bed. Once, my sister tried to play a prank on me by putting a plastic skeleton in my closet, but if anything, my fear lessened. I named him Brad because no one scary is named Brad, and whenever I was scared that something would grab me, l'd remember that he was there, and if he was a good friend he'd tell me if someone was coming for me.

Speedy
Speedy is a tiny horse who could take you anywhere in 5 minutes! My sister and I shared him, and he would always appear with his bright red carriage when we called out his name. He joined us anytime we wanted our make-believe games to go somewhere fantastical. I don't know if we pictured him the same way, but this is how I always saw him :]

The Spirit of Halloween
When I was little I thought it was unfair that Christmas, Easter, etc got mascots (like Santa) and Halloween didn't get one- so l made this guy in my head (I was also rlly into "rise of the guardians at the time so that also influenced me lol)! I think his whole thing was that he would help people prep for Halloween...

Beetle the Shadow Thing
When I was younger, the nightlights in my room would cast large shadows along my walls and ceiling. Sometimes it looked like a dog, other times a bug! I used to be scared of them, but looking back now, they were just a friend keeping me company on sleepless nights!

Brock
I'm honestly not sure if this is allowed, but...l watched, and played, a LOT of Pokemon as a kid, and so although I made up all sorts of characters to play make-believe with, the only actual "imaginary friend" | remember having was just straight-up Brock. Particularly his show representation. I thought "so do I just post a picture of him...?" but for the sake of posterity, the least I could do is at least scribble my own depiction.

Catssandra
When I was young I had an imaginary friend named Catssandra, initially she took the form of a cartoon cat, like a cat version of Maisy, only a more japanese style cartoon, since im from japan. As I got older and that cartoonish style became less appealing to a very rebellious child me, she started to show up as a humanoid with cat features. Consistently though, she was essentially my young brain visualising my more anarchic thoughts, she would always be encouraging me to prioritise my creativity and desires over the rules. I apologise for the low quality drawing I didn't have the motivation to set up my pen and tablet so I drew it with my mouse. Drawing her from memory also forced me to think about what she looked like in detail for the first time in probably 10 years, so I must thank you for the interesting dive into my own psyche, Penny!

Max
Growing up I always felt very lonely being the littlest kid of my family. My siblings were always in their own little friend group, and I was just the baby that they had to bring along sometimes. It was a really lonely feeling knowing that I wasn't really one of them. It always made me wish I had a younger sibling of my own. One that could be my best friend and I could make sure that they never felt lonely. Once, while I was still young, I learned that I might've had a younger sibling. But, they were lost before they could even be observed. His name would've been Max. It's something that happens a lot, but it stuck with me when I learned about it. I could've had Max in my life. He could've been my best friend, my little brother. But, he was never meant to be there. As a kid I would imagine he was there, playing with me in the park. I would share my toys with him, talk about my day, and wish him goodnight. Even as I grew up and learned to accept my lot in life, I still think about him. I love you, Max.

Angel
When I was younger I had an imaginary friend. Simply a stickman with wings, who would rest on my shoulder and do cool parkour outside my car's window while the trees and buildings passed buy. They were about the size of my palm (which was smaller at the time), and greeted me when I was scared at night. I like to think they were the culmination of my first characters that I ever drew, which I wont say for personal reasons. It gets harder and harder to remember my old childhood creations, so l have decided to keep them here, to be remembered, maybe by others. Thank you Penny and Belliup.

Pig-Man
It feels kind of weird submitting this as my friend was one me and my brother made up after watching some youtube videos as kids. Basically, he was originally meant to be this immortal pig/human hybrid that escaped from a lab and we had to fight him everyday in order to "save humanity" (aka our grandparents house). It wasn't really fighting though, as we made it incredibly clear that it was just a game for all three of us. Anyways, after my brother grew up, he ended up becoming this sort of protector/friend that I could just talk to at the end of the day about whatever happened. I don't really know what else to add, so I hope he can rest peacefully here :)

Twins
i dont really remember having imaginary friends but my mom and sister tell me I used to talk about these twins who would comfort me when i was sad I have no memories of this but even if I dont remember they still deserve to be

Margie
My friend Margie was an elephant from A.C., and she made life easy. I would write to her every day when I was younger. I loved her personality in wild world, man, I still look back at those letters with fondness and some sadness. I see the kid who was trying to put it all together: the hope and fear I had. It's a time capsule of who I was in that moment-the things I lost, the pain I went through, but also the joy and love I felt. Margie was there through it all. *Image changed for copyright reasons

Rikki
as a kid I loved the Chuck Jones Rikki Tikki Tavi cartoon. The titular mongoose became a core member of my imaginary group of pets/companions/friends. I didn't like playing with other kids at recess so I made a cast of imaginary animals to follow me around. One day I'd like to make my own adaptation of the story, like chuck jones did but for now I think he needs somewhere to stay, he deserves it. *Image changed for copyright reasons

Margaret
I don't really remember anything about her, but she was a comfort to me as a child. :)

I don't remember....Was it Kage?
He had so many eyes. We used to play together all the time! Mostly hide and seek! I'd always be the hider, but he'd always find me first. It was fun!

Ballerina, Little Tito, Mirs Moo
there was a ballerina puppet. a blue puppet. and a mrs. moo. who was a cow.

Herbert
Around when I was 14 or so, there was a really hard period of time where I was scared of my Dad. Work was really rough for him and though I wouldn't call him abusive, he certainly took the frustration home, and it made the house feel unsafe. This was also a period where I was wrestling with the initial steps of queer self-discovery, meaning that I often daydreamed about the forbidden possibility of having a boyfriend. This all culminates in Herbert- my imaginary boyfriend. Whenever I would go to the garage to grab my dad a drink, 1 would purposefully take a little extra time to sit on our old couch in the corner and imagine holding hands with Herbert. I never had a solid idea of his appearance, he was just a shape, the weight of a hand on mine or a shoulder to lean on. Me and my dad are on better terms now, and I have a real boyfriend, but sometimes I think about Herbert and smile.

Astra
i could never really picture her (or maybe i just don't remember) as a kid, but i think she always was with me. she probably appeared in my dreams, and i even recently still have dreams with her in them. sometimes i am her in my dreams. i dont know much about her but im just comforted by the thought of her. she's about the size of a 5 year old i think. the image i made was based on mostly feeling, with the colours and details, and she definitely looks like a character i would make as a kid, so i think i was pretty spot on. unfortunately due to things out of my control, my memory is extremely blurry and everything is hard to pin down. she means a lot to me. "astra" is a name i decided to call her since i dont remember if she actually had one.

Lucky
I don't actually remember much about her because my memory of when I was young isn't great but I do remember lucky appearing in my dreams to help guide me through different places and sometimes helped me follow the stories that my dreams had. her name was lucky because she's sometimes very lucky and can share her luck with others especially me I guess that why I remember being so lucky when I was younger. She also helped encourage me to make friends along with I'm pretty sure helping me make drawing a personal hobby of mine and I hope she will be able to share her luck with the other imaginary friends and guide them to find friends of their own and encourage them to pursue what makes them happy! And Lucky, I hope that you will be happy here even if I fully forget you!

Mr Win Stone!
He's a tough looking guy, but he's as shy as a pebble! Welcoming everyone with a greeting and a smile! He works just as hard as everybody else, but sometimes he may ask for some neighborly help. With his tie and his wit, and his googly eyes that glisten. He's always looking out for somebody to listen.

Mr Nobody
Mr. Nobody was a business man made of shadow. He wasn't around for very long, all he really did was stand around and l'd see him out of the corner of my eye. I do distinctly remember us passing a ball back and forth while sitting on the floor. I'd roll it to him, he'd roll it to me.

Molly Magic
She has been their for me for all my life and she is the best thing that happened to me, i don't know what I do without here. I always picture her doing magic tricks in front of me and trying to make me laugh and even calling me her best friend saying " I am her best friend." And that she will never leave me

Invisible Man
No picture for... obvious reasons. When I was very small, I had an imaginary friend who was an invisible man, that I talked to all the time about my life. He was someone I could chatter to and explain to about things I liked when my parents were busy.

The Many Clones of Me
I guess I'm the only oddball with a set of imaginary friends that were just me. Like the seven dwarfs in Snow White, these duplicates represent a distinct emotion or feeling as you can see in the picture. They usually accompany me on my adventures as a kid (which is mostly imagining myself inside various TV shows but on ocassions these adventures can be outdoors like an indoor playground for example). This page in particular brings me back a lot of forgotten childhood memories, so this place shall now be the group's permanent home, like a hotel or residence of course! I think I'm not the only one with that unique set of imaginary friends that look just like me in this ever-spinning globe.

Smizzledorf
He is super big

Andrew
Andrew is the most outgoing friend and has always stood up for me when I'm too scared to do something. We always argue but we mean well. Banter is normal between friends right?

Diamond
"Diamond is a princess who was like a older sister to me. She has the ability to create crystals and gems out of thin air, eat rocks, and can bake anything! Diamond is such a kind and caring individual...but can be a bit clumsy at times. She remains positive no matter what! She was my role model. She's perfect to me. That's why I named her Diamond."

Lovsey
"Lovesy was my little fluffy angel on my shoulder that I (sometimes) listened to. With a quick wit to go with it. Whenever I needed someone to talk to when no one was there, or someone to share my crazy ideas with, or a shoulder to cry on or a voice of reason, she was there. We went on our own little adventures, made so many friends and created some of our own in my own little world. We experienced the good, bad and confusing moments in life that never quite left that we still carry with us. I hope she can be the same, sweet but spunky companion to all the other imaginary friends and anyone who passes by. She deserves it. Regardless, she'll always be a part of me and I'll still see her from time to time. That will never change. Thank you Loves for all the years you stood with me!~"

Luce
"She was my favorite plushie when I was little. The manufacturer gave her the name "Pounce," but I renamed her after my cat Lucy. Why I named her Luce instead of Lucy I'll never know. If she got even a slight bit ruffled, l'd call her "Evil Luce" and get my parents to buy another copy of her. She had an entire family of cat plushies made by the same company, their mother being a larger plushie of Luce I named "Mama Luce." I still have those plushies and they're stored in my bookshelf inside a flower shaped popcorn bucket. I even still have an Evil Luce (a copy of Luce that's off color and more scrunkly). Fun fact, my mom told me once when I was 6 I had an argument with her and said "FINE! WE'RE NOT FRIENDS ANYMORE!" We still ended up being friends but then I stopped playing with her and her family. I miss those days."

"He was my good luck charm and who I went to when I was feeling anxious. I don't know if you could call him and imaginary friend but he was my friend."

Beaufort

Destiny
"Shes shy :<"

Lola
"Lola was based off a ballerina-bunny stuffed animal I used to have. I added fairy wings to her and a tiara because I wanted to be a fairy princess so badly when I was a kid. I used to talk to her and make up stories with her!"

Desperado Ratty
"I always imagined this little guy running around whatever room I was in and would shot holes into the walls that he would crawl into! I was a weird kid."

Dino
"this is my dino! he was originally a clay figure i had made when i was small, but the figure is now long gone. he has a little bit of 'lore'- he owns an amusement park in a world made out of yarn, and his dream is simply to make everyone smile! even though i don't think of him that much anymore he holds a special place in my heart and i'm very glad i was able to make him."

Null

Narra
"she was an old hybrid OC I made in Gacha Life made manifest. She was with me all throughout elementary school, and I loved her to death. I hope she rests well here."

Kellowy
"My childhood imaginary friend who lived inside cracks and paper corners while I was in school, she helped me learn when my brain would wander too much. I'd rather she live within the cracks of the Imaginarium instead of stuck rotting in my notebook."

Sam
"He was my long lost childhood stuffed animal. I would guess my mom either gave him away to a kid at one of the preschools she worked at or he landed in a goodwill. Honestly, I'm okay with that because deep down I know he probably means the world to someone else too. I still sometimes miss him though. When I imagine him he is like a little angel! His name is very simple because I did not know how to spell as a kid. :( He was always the main character in the stories I made up. I hope this memory of him can find peace here."

Mr. Not-Present
"Mr Not-Present is a person that is present, but is not! You can't see him, but he is there! I can't really draw him, but here! You can have his ever-watchful eye! He is shy, but very caring!"

Thing !!
"This is Thing !! It tries its very best to make everyone happy! It lurks in jungle gyms waiting to give you a big surprise and maybe even teleport you to the next reality over. It also wants your eyes I wonder what thats about"

Jacklyn

Kev
"Kev is a robot with many surprises in and on him. He's a pal to all and will do whatever to save the day!"

Moppy
"According to my mum, my childhood imaginary friend was "an old schoolboy named moppy", i dont exactly have an appearance in mind for what i thought he looked like at the time but i do remember red being a part of it. I think my mum used to be a little freaked out when i said it was a schoolboy, she thought i was seeing ghosts probably."

Shadow
"I didn't really have a long term imaginary friend, per say. I mostly fixated on fictional characters, who I imagined interacting with- and they would come and go. However, I DO remember playing with my shadow! At my elementary school, there were these tall telephone poles that cast their shadows across the field. My childhood best friend and I would make our shadows climb them, up and up and up, and then we'd "jump" off of them and rush back to the base of the pole, falling in a heap! I think I also made friends with my reflection, but that didn't really last long."

Finnegan
"a funky lil centipede guy, i see him in my dreams a lot"

Spots
"She was the sweetest stuffed animal for a lonely child. He was an everyday companion to a kid that didn't know what was wrong with her. Spots was my stuffed animal, a dalmatian, and my little companion for gosh knows how long. She was always a friend played with me during the good and bad of growing up. He distracted me, played every role, and gave me comfort. Whenever I think about her or look at him on my shelf, I remember my childhood wasn't as bad as it could've been. I'd love to preserve her memory here in case I ever forget about him <3. (Using pronouns interchangeably because I could never decide on their gender. Sorry if I got a little too personal there!)"

Dr. Dont
"Love him :~)"

Mr. RainbowCoin
"I don't remember much about this guy, the only thing I can remember is his cool astronaut mask, now that he's back in my head I see him as a cool business guy that loves gold coins and rainbows. Please give him a cool home, I didn't use him a lot when I was a child and now he's all alone, I don't want him to be like that, take care of him and he will give you some great deals"

The Twins
"I don't remember much but the Twins were children around my age if not a bit older. I could never see them directly, it was always through the dark, the corner of my eye, reflections-l distinctly remember staring up at them through the water in the bath one night. They whispered comforts to me I can't remember, and made the dark feel less lonely. I still think I see them sometimes, in the corner of my eye."

Handy
"Each finger has a different personality, each of them are mostly the same but like different things! The pointer finger likes baseball, that's why they wear a baseball cap alot of the time! Handy has trouble walking most of the time since they have very skinny and short legs carry such a ginormous body!"

Bingus
"Tongue long"

Smiley

The Kittens
"When I was in kindergarten I wanted to have a cat. My family had only ever had dogs, and I love dogs, but I'd never even pet a cat before. While reading a book filled with cat photos there was one of two Siamese kittens. They were so cute to me, I started imagining them being beside me as I played. They never had names, but they were dear to me."

Mop
He was my best friend when I was a kid! He helped me keep safe and warm as I was terrified of the dark as a kid and always remember him bright and glowing like a light bulb! He was a little mouse because I was jealous of that kid from Stuart Little and wanted a mouse brother... Hope he can look after someone here!

Leo
"Leo is a human (i guess) that has huge hair. He lives on a chocolate house with a lousy neighbor. He has 3 nephews and a girlfriend. (I drew them without color because i never drew them with color only Leo) He is very adventurous and funny."

Heather

Lucky Padd
"Lucky Padd is a Tadpoles who has gotten their legs and is a friend and gardener and is a true friend who will help you do the right thing."
