Poptropican

 Poptropicans are the virtual equivalent of humans in Poptropica. Your avatar is also a Poptropican.

Poptropicans
Poptropicans are small, neckless, human-like people that can run fast, jump high and drive.Their heads float around, only to be held up by an invisible force, similar to the Bobble Head. Their heads can also come off when angered (they fly up into the air and come back instantly, after a few bounces) .However,in Virus Hunter Island it is shown that they do have necks. Somehow, their hair is not completely attached, either. Their heads also catch up with them when falling, but not as fast as their body. Also poptropicans seem unable to die proven by poptropican characters jumping off high buildings and surviving major crashes (Cryptids Island) without a scratch, though they still can get hurt. However, despite them being seemingly immortal, they can still die as shown in various islands such as Ghost Story Island. Also, they have the ability in challenges if they die or are caught, they can start over again. In reality, what's done is done. In the comic Zomberry: Day Zero, explaining why the outbreak began in Zomberry Island, it depicts Poptropicans with normal sized arms, hands, normal legs, and the ability to wear shoes (Poptropicans have the ability to wear shoes, but they choose not to unless necessary Wimpy Boardwalk Island). They can turn into Vampires or Zomberries and can also have super powers. They can have abnormally colored skin and hair. In the arcade in the Poptropica Museum, a Poptropican will lose one of it's live's by simply falling or hitting an obstacle. The less you hit an obstacle, the higher score you get (Poptropica Adventures Nintendo DS). Poptropicans obviously aren't the only ones inhabiting Poptropica. Perfect replicas of Greg Heffley, Nate Wright, Charles Schulz, and Jack and Annie inhabit Poptropica (Wimpy Wonderland Island, Wimpy Boardwalk Island, Big Nate Island, Great Pumpkin Island, Red Dragon). Some Poptropican products are trademarks, but some are Poptropican versions of popular culture. For example, the Mona Lisa is made with a Poptropican head by Poptropica's Leonardo Da Vinci. Many toys, wallpapers, and other evidence seen in Islands proves that Poptropicans, when not shown with rock hands, have four fingers. This means that perhaps the rock hands is just an illusion because Poptropicans are far away (Zomberry: Day Zero, Lego CUUSOO Wallpaper, Poptropica Blimp). This is supported by the fact that Poptropicans have fingerprints (Spy Island) However,in Back Lot Island and on a Pop Quiz, it is mentioned that Poptropicans don't have thumbs. Poptropicans look slightly similar in appearance to the 1993 Rugrats cartoon characters. Poptropicans usually wear sleeveles shirts, but in the Celebrity Wax Museum, several characters have long sleeves or gloves on their hands.

Names
Poptropican's names identify the user. Poptropicans have screen names other than their usernames. The screen names start off with an adjective, such as Fun, Neat, Zany, etc. Then a noun is added, such as Hawk, Bird, Sword, etc. Some people, however, were able to get different names. (see Glitches/Goofs) Occasionally, more than one Poptropican can have the same name.

Islands
Poptropica's islands are where poptropicans can discover and uncover mysteries.You can get a medal and 50 credits (before, they were 100 credits) when you finish an island. In some point of the adventure, you recieve or find an item that you can use for later on. Some of the items you can even wear around the island! But they're specific items that you cannot use in another island. There is a map where you can see the names of the places you visited on an island. Right under the map at the left side there is a button that will restart your island that you're on. There is also multiplayer rooms to friend, chat, and battle by playing games with other poptropicans from around the world. Sometimes there are advertisements in the main street. They are quests that instead of credits and a medal, when you complete the task you get prizes that you can wear or use around any island. Currently there are 36 islands(excluding 24 Carrot Beta Carrotene). Below are the first few of the 36 islands.
