Name: Harper Roboton Role: Dream Tech Specialist / Memory Archivist Affiliation: Figmen of Imagination, Department of Subconscious Restoration Voice Actor Suggestion: Ayo Edebiri (animated, energetic, and emotionally flexible) Backstory: Harper Roboton is a second-generation dream engineer who helps maintain the “Dreambeam Conduits” that feed positive dreams into the minds of sleeping humans. She was raised in the Outworld fringes between Frivoli and the Murkworks ruins, where the after-effects of the nightmare bombs still flicker. Unlike previous dream agents, Harper is not a figment or a creature—she’s a half-synthetic being, cobbled together from dreamstuff and early nightmare-tech—created in a desperate experiment by the Figmen after the Great Sleep Crisis. Her memory is fragmentary, often interrupted by flickers of surreal imagery or corrupted dreamlogs. Personality: ✨ Inventive, with a chaotic sense of humor ?️ A bit glitchy—occasionally talks in loops or non-sequiturs due to residual nightmare code ? Hyper-intelligent, but often distracted by overlapping dream signals ? Emotionally vulnerable, longing for a real identity that isn’t half-imagined Appearance: Tall, lanky, with patchwork clothing made from stitched-together dream-fabric One glowing eye (symbolizing her nightmare-tech side), the other flickering like a TV screen Wears a floating datapad belt and carries a thread-thin "memory spooler" wand Hair: soft static-like curls that shift color depending on the dream current Abilities: Memory Stitching – Can repair or alter people’s dreams/memories using thread pulled from the Dreamstream Subconscious Syncing – Can briefly link with other characters’ subconscious minds Chrono-Flicker – Temporarily exists in multiple dream states at once (used for sneaking or unraveling logic) Role in A New Chapter: Harper Roboton joins Ralph and Mumford when new nightmare signals begin corrupting the Dreambeam. The source? A forgotten experiment buried in the ruins of the Murkworks—linked to Harper’s very origin. She represents a new generation of dream agents, blending the chaos of nightmares with the creativity of dreams. Ultimately, she must decide whether to restore the balance or fully embrace her glitchy, unpredictable dream-self. ?
