Name: ???
Nickname(s):
Age (Appearance Wise): Late 20s
Age (Actual): ???

Personality: jealous, lonely, trickster, fun loving, outspoken, coldly blunt (to be expanded)

Thoughts on the Forest: (mixed) (intimidation?)
Thoughts of Book Children: They're bright, colorful, unique and better. Sure, City Folk can have strange and interesting shapes to their appearance but the Paper Children are put on an automatic pedestal because he is one. They have voices, they have color, and oh such wonderful colors they have, what stories they were born from! If he can ever help it, these are the people he most wants to associate and would sooner drop a City Person in favor of them without so much as a "good bye". The fact that they're a minority is frustrating for him, as it makes having loads of friends among them rather difficult, but he will try his damnedest to get into all of their good graces. If he doesn't succeed, however, they're no better than City People.
Thoughts on City People: Something that doesn't even have color couldn't possibly know how to have fun. Because of this outlook, he acts very cold and condescending to all of the City People. Their colorless bodies and lack of voices bring thoughts of brainlessness, regardless of the personalities they carry, and he will treat them as less than sentient constructs. There may be a chance for this opinion to change, if he meets an especially interesting City Person, but it is minutely slim at best as he would likely wave it off in favor of continuing his belief. Essentially, they're just mindless toys to him and he will amuse himself with them in any way he sees fit, even if it is cruel.

Hobbies: slacking off, pranking, duhrrr
Birthday: December 21st
Favorite Things: Cold, laughter, playing games, animals,
Hated Things: Being ignored, people having fun without him, heat, people crying, pompous attitudes, politicians

Story: Jack Frost and Other Winter Tales (could allow for other people to quest wintery childrens~)
Favorite type of Ending: Where everyone thinks the bad guy wins, including the bad guy, but then he gets his proper comeuppance later.
Favorite Illustration: ???

His snubbing of city folk... does that happen when he's out and about on the town with his book child friends? I can imagine some characters might be a little put off, or at least confused, by that behavior (we-ell, at least Naoya would). Will he at least be a little polite when he has to interact with them? Like, just civil enough to get by? I like this trait, but I'd like to know how it plays out.

I'm also curious about the duplicity of his disliking pompous personalities and having this habit of snubbery. Is he hypocritical in more ways than this as well?

Anduh. Personally, I'm a little confused about the ending type, or at least the wording of it. It just sounds clunky.

First of all, the character seems interesting but I can't imagine much interaction between him and the city folks if, like Kitty said, he is openly mean to them. Since he's also a minority it such a large comparative group, I can't imagine that his actions wouldn't have consequences.

There's also a problem with the favorite things category as there are no animals in this world.
