Imagin
The are a fictional race that serve as the antagonists in the Kamen Rider Series ''Kamen Rider Den-O''. The name "Imagin" comes from several words in the English, Japanese, and even Arabic languages: , , and .
The Imagin were designed by , 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 .
==Background==
The Imagin are beings from a possible future who have lost their physical forms due to an event that erases their timeline, becoming dependent on existing through the memories of humans, though this event and timeline are not well explained. Led by Kai, they arrive to the year 2007 to find weak-hearted humans and through them go back in time to find the , and destroy him so their future can become a reality again. Imagin possess humans upon forging a contract, fashioning a physical form by searching through the host's memory for figures found in folklore and myths. In some cases of Imagin possession, a person's eyes change color to that of the Imagin, the hair altered into style with a streak of it also changed to the color of the Imagin. In some cases, even the host's attire changes to reflect the Imagin's personality. There are also rare Imagin showing the ability to split into two or more entities that can survive independent of each other. Normally, when this happens, there is a clear difference between them, ether physical or they'll have completely different personalities. Unlike most Kamen Rider villains, 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, recognized by the sands of time spilling from their bodies, are offered a single wish by the Imagin. In exchange, 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 is 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 and the person in the present time dissolves to sand and possibly becomes an Imagin themself. However, as Ryotaro learned in time, the restoration of these things rely on just being remembered. Also, if an alteration to the past prevents the contract from ever being made in the first place, the damage will be negated completely due to it never having happened, as was the case with the Ivy Imagin. However, it appears that should the Imagin have been destroyed in the past, its destruction is not undone.
