Imagin (イマジン) are a (by our point of view) fictional race that are mostly antagonist (but, in some cases are protagonist) that have appeared in the Alpha, NeoEgypt, Epsilon, Pi, Rho, Omega Realities of the Xelku9 set of the Multiverse. They've originally a fictional race that are the antagonists (and in a handful of cases, secondary protagonists) in the Kamen Rider Series Kamen Rider Den-O. However, this is a different version of the original concept/idea for the original idea go here: http://kamenrider.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Imagin

The Imagin race, were originally humans or other intelligent life forms from a point in time who lost their physical forms due to an event in the past which erased their time from existence. They became dependent on the memories of other people in order to survive. Being led by Kai they arrived in July 2010 to find weak-hearted humans to use them to go back in time and change the past while searching for the Junction Point and destroy him/her so that their future or time can become a reality again.

When an Imagin possesses a human it will forge a contract which will fashion a physical form by searching through their host’s memory for figures found in folklore, myths or by using the holder’s own imagination. However, ghost and demon type Imagin have shown to have no need to forge a contract with a human being in order to go through time. There have been some cases of Imagin possession where the host’s eyes change color to that of the Imagin. In some cases, even the host's attire changes to reflect the Imagin's personality. There have also been rare Imagin showing the ability to split into two or more entities that can survive independent of each other. When this does happen there is a clear difference between them, either physically or they’ll have different personalities. Any Imagin that have been used by Kamen Riders have been shown to have the ability to turn into weapons that are similar to the weapons the Imagin would use or attacks they would use. The first time this occurred was when Ken witnessed a Lion Ghost Imagin turn a Spirit Mole Imagin into a Drill Lance. After the battle Ken started experimenting until he managed to turn Dawn into the Dawzao, he then taught the trick to his fellow Imagin.

Unlike most Kamen Rider antagonists, who normally have greedy or selfish motives for their actions, the Imagin attack the past due to self preservation, wanting to keep their race alive.

The hosts of any Imagin can be recognized by the sands of time spilling from their bodies and are offered by a single wish by the Imagin. In exchange for the wish the Imagin is able to dive into the most treasured moment of the person's past. As displayed, however, the host must remember making the contract for the Imagin to successfully travel to the past. Additionally, due to the greatly delicate nature of the contract, if the contract holder forgets or dies before the contract is completed, the Imagin bound to him or her would fade out of existence. Opening the human like a door, a portal would be revealed that leads to the appropriate time, severing their ties to the human in the process. From there, the Imagin takes over a host's body or simply manifests itself in its physical form and begins causing massive chaos. In turn, due to the laws of time, everything and everyone destroyed in the past no longer exists in the present.

This is different when it comes to Ghost Type Imagin, when a Ghost Type Imagin targets it’s host they just need the host to remember them in order to travel into the past. It’s true Imagin form will be determined by its own imagination. Demon Type Imagin are unknown due to incomplete research.

The original Imagin from Kamen Rider Den-O were designed by Yasushi Nirasawa, who previously worked on the designs for the Undead in Kamen Rider Blade, the Horrors in GARO, and the Worms in Kamen Rider Kabuto. These designs are detailed in Imagin Works: Say Your Wish...

Singularity Points
A "Singularity Point" is someone that has the ability to exist outside of time itself, and be unaffected by changes in their own past. This ability also allows them to suppress an Imagin's will when it attempts to takes over their body and is not tempted by the free wish an Imagin can grant. Because of this, the Imagin contracted to Singularity Points are usually unable to take a physical form in the present time, and directly possess their Singularity Point, instead. They usually reside within time itself and when they do not possess their Singularity Point, they stay on some sort of Train of Time, such as Den-Liner, Cross-Liner or Zero-Liner. The Singularity Points also have the ability to become Kamen Riders, and the Imagin that possess them lend their abilities in combat when called upon. In other instances, the Imagin use their Singularity Point's body as they wish when the Singularity Point loses consciousness. As long as the Singularity Point is conscious, he/she can expel the Imagin from his body and send it back to the Train of Time that he/she uses as a hero. In some cases of Imagin possession, a person's eyes change color to that of the Imagin, the hair will grow or change in style with a streak of it also changed to the color of the Imagin.

Ancients
These 'good' Imagin are essentially Imagin that don't agree with the overall goal of the Imagin, either because they don't care for it, or they have other agendas. These four Imagin are also referred to as the Ancients and join forces with Jade Witwicky to stop the evil Imagin from furthering their plans.


 * Midnight - only initially cares for the joy of fighting, however over time she learns to respect being comrades with her host.
 * Dawn – bonds with Jade, originally to use her as a merit because, Jade is a Singularity Point. She is the only one of the four Imagin that sees it as a merit.
 * Ken - emotional and physically strong, quite wise; his only desire is to grant wishes; he is saved from oblivion by Jade.
 * Jane - childish and mostly annoying; likes playing with Jade’s sister Alice; originally intended to kill Jade but she changes her mind later.

Other Good Imagin

 * Juliet
 * Hecate
 * Desdémona
 * Sieg

Evil Imagin
The evil Imagin, they make up the majority of the Imagin population and see the Ancients as enemies or traitors to their cause.


 * Bat Imagin

Gigandeaths
Whenever an Imagin is defeated, they sometimes reform their bodies along with a berserk state of mind, warping into one of three types of massive creatures called Gigandeath. The number of Gigandeaths emerging from an Imagin can be from a single Gigandeath, to two different types, to an entire army of them. These monsters are mindless and are filled by the urge of destroy. Whenever a Gigandeath emerges, only a Time Train can take it out. All three Gigandeaths are augmented into the Nega DenLiner's arsenal.
