Edgar (Poptropica)

Edgar is a carnie apprentice from Monster Carnival Island on Poptropica. He plays a major role in the island.
== Characteristics ==
=== Appearance ===
Edgar has pale skin, light brown hair, and wears a light blue collared shirt, dark blue pants, a belt, and suspenders.
=== Personality ===
Friendly and trusting, Edgar struggles to manage tasks independently and often relies on others for assistance. Despite his forgetfulness and occasional impulsiveness, he genuinely cares for his friends and is willing to confront danger to protect them. He harbors a deep love for fried dough and follows the rules of the carnival, except when it comes to obtaining food. Despite his flaws, he demonstrates loyalty and courage when faced with adversity.
== Storyline ==
Edgar is first encountered on Main Street, where he informs you that the carnival is not yet ready and asks for your assistance. Together, you help the carnies prepare the carnival before its opening. However, things take a sinister turn when the carnies, under the influence of a mysterious hooded figure, transform into monsters after venturing into the woods. Edgar seeks your help once again and introduces you to Ringmaster Raven, who reveals the cure for the transformation.
To obtain the cure, you retrieve a slip of paper from the man at the Ferris Wheel and a black lightbulb from the Haunted Lab, using them to decode a secret formula at the rubber duck booth. After creating the cure, Edgar escorts you back to the ringmaster's tent, where it becomes apparent that he is under the control of Ringmaster Raven. You are captured and on the verge of being transformed into a monster until you awaken Edgar with fried dough, breaking the spell.
Freed from the mind control, Edgar aids you in confronting Ringmaster Raven and ultimately defeating him. Grateful for your help, Edgar and the other carnies leave town, but not before he awards you with the medallion.
