) is Terrence’s younger brother who is a bright and creative eight-year-old boy and Bloo's creator who visits Foster's every day. Mac is often the voice of reason among his friends when they are making decisions. However, his extremely good nature tends to make him somewhat naive.

Wilt

Wilt (voiced by Phil LaMarr) – The kind, red, very tall and disabled no. 1 imaginary friend with only a right arm and crooked left eye-stalk. However, in "Good Wilt Hunting", it is discovered that he was not always this way; he was injured during a basketball game, leaving his left eye crushed and his left arm injured. Wilt exhibits consummate good sportsmanship, which he applies to every part of life he can. He is considered the nicest person at Foster's and is known for being excessively polite and apologetic, saying “I’m sorry” all the time. Wilt has a big heart, is frequently cool and collected, and, only on very rare occasions shows anger at all. His oversized basketball shoes always squeak against the floor/ground, no matter what surface he is walking on. According to the episode "Room with a Feud", among him, Coco and Eduardo, he has been in the house for the longest time.

Mac, Bloo, Eduardo, Frankie, Wilt, and others usually understand her when she speaks, and often translate for her. Despite her appearance and quirky behavior, she can demonstrate a perceived intelligence, principle and kindness. No one knows who her creator is as she was found on a South Pacific island by two scientists named Adam and Douglas.


Frankie Foster

Frankie Foster (voiced by
Grey DeLisle Grey DeLisle (; born Erin Grey Van Oosbree; August 24, 1973), sometimes credited as Grey Griffin, is an American voice actress, comedian and singer-songwriter. DeLisle is known for various roles in animated productions and video games. On Sept ...

, addressed as "Miss Frances" by Mr. Herriman. Her parents are never seen in the series. Frankie is the caregiver at Foster's and helps keep everything in order. In spite of Mr. Herriman's fussiness and fixation with rules and cleanliness, she is usually very friendly, outgoing and laid-back. According to her driver's license in "Bus the Two of Us", she was born on July 25, 1984. Frankie is friends with most of the imaginary friends at Foster's (particularly Wilt, Eduardo, Coco, and Bloo) and can be described as a protective big sister to them, but sometimes gets mad at Bloo, Cheese, Madame Foster and Mr. Herriman.


Mr. Herriman

, lop-eared and rabbit-like no. 44 imaginary friend imagined by Madame Foster, who speaks with a British accent, quite similar to Bruce Wayne’s butler, Alfred Pennyworth. He wears a tailcoat, white gloves and a top hat, as well as a monocle. He is in charge of the house and is extremely strict about the house rules, but he is also seen to put the rules before common sense, as seen in " Destination: Imagination" when he sticks to the rule written on the chained up toy box of never letting the imaginary friend who is trapped in there out despite what would happen to him if he did not. He is often found punishing Bloo for his various misdemeanors. It was revealed in "Busted" that the reason Mr. Herriman is so hard on Bloo is because he feels that, given that he is allowed to stay at Foster's even though he still has an owner, he has already broken one of the main house rules. He is extremely fond of his creator Madame Foster, harboring great respect and loyalty to her, even at her most prominent levels of unabashed pep and energy. He has a fear of dogs (due to the fact that dogs are the natural predators of rabbits) and is easily scared out of his wits whenever he comes across one. He also has a rabbit's stereotypical obsession with carrots and will do anything to have them, as demonstrated in "Crime After Crime".


Madame Foster

Madame F. Foster (voiced by Candi Milo) is the founder of Foster's and grandmother of Frankie. She's an
old person Old age refers to ages nearing or surpassing the life expectancy of human beings, and is thus the end of the human life cycle. Terms and euphemisms for people at this age include old people, the elderly (worldwide usage), OAPs (British usage ...
but has childlike boundless energy and enjoys herself to fullest. Her imaginary friend is Mr. Herriman, whom she imagined when she was a child and never gave up, and is the only one who can control him. Like Bloo, Madame Foster occasionally becomes hyperactive and mischievous. However, there are times she is shown to be the wisdom of the house.

She considers herself superior to all the other imaginary friends, is extremely negative towards everyone, and never says anything nice. Whenever Duchess turns on the spot, her entire body pivots like a sheet of paper being flipped, revealing that she is two-dimensional. Her full name is "Her Royal Duchess Diamond Persnickety the First, Last, and Only". She speaks with a German accent. Details about Duchess's life before moving to Foster's or who created her remain a mystery since neither Duchess nor her creator were even shown at the reunion in "Good Wilt Hunting". * Goo (voiced by Grey DeLisle) – A hyperactive, overly imaginative and talkative

Goo enjoys playing games such as Checkers and Truth or Dare, but she does not know how to play and Mac is the only one who notices. In her first appearance she constantly created friends because she had no real friends because of her odd behavior. She finally stopped making new friends and undoes them after Mac told her to get to know the ones she had made already. However, she has still created a few by mistake or to help on rare occasions. She is also shown to be friends with Cheese, as both of them get along because of their odd doings. Despite appearing older than Mac, her exact age has never been stated. * Terrence (voiced by

Cheese was thought to be an imaginary friend accidentally created by Mac, but was actually created by Mac's neighbor Louise. He appears to be a nuisance and dim-witted, often saying incoherent or non-sequitur phrases, and breaking into sudden bouts of screaming when frightened or when he does not get his way. Cheese likes goldfish crackers, cereal, juice, chocolate milk (although he is
