(FAQ from website "Subreality Central") https://web.archive.org/web/19990830153823/http://www.subreality.com/sc.htm the fictives -- These are the characters from the stories for whom the Cafe was created, and thus are the most common barflies there. If you watched "Who Framed Roger Rabbit," you might get an idea of what fictives are like "off duty." They're like cartoon characters; they can't really die, it only looks that way in stories, but it can sure tick them off! The only thing a fictive truly fears is his/her writer and readers giving up on their story, thus letting them fade away into non-existence again.

Some fictives/soulbonds are thought-created by a person who feels a strong connection to a character they may have watched or read about. Hence, bringing them to life as a result within their mind-space. For others, a connection may also have been made, but instead of simply bringing them to life, they may connect to the place where they live. There are variations on how this takes place and how long until the person arrives completely.
