Mr. Toadman

Mr. Toadman is a character from the popular blog, Kyra's Adventure. It is unknown what species Mr. Toadman is actually meant to be, only that he is the size of a human toddler, has the features of a toad or a frog (webbed hands and feet) and gets offended if ever you should call him just a toad or just a man.

He wears a black dress shirt, a yellow bow tie, and a blue taffeta suit jacket.

Mr. Toadman could be a reference to The Wind and The Willows, but this is debatable. He has also been compared to Yoda. [citation needed]

Role In Story
Mr. Toadman is the catalyst which gets the story in motion. He is the one to show up at Kyra's house one night expecting her to come with him to the land of Purple Mountain. This is when the blog posts (supposedly of a normal teenage girl) change dramatically. They go from believable posts about daily school life, homework, parents, and boys to fantastical adventure in magical land. She agrees to go with Mr. Toadman without hesitation. She explains this to be because she has always longed for adventure, but she is later quoted as saying, "I feel like I'd follow him into a creepy old van."

Mr. Toadman has a way with words, and an essence which makes you trust him. He is the guide throughout the story and though his character does little, none of it would have been possible without him, and all members of Purple Mountain seem to have much respect for Mr. Toadman, including David Bowie, the King of the Goblins.[citation needed]

History
Nothing is known as of yet, of the past of Mr. Toadman. Only that he is quite old and is a long term resident of Purple Mountain.
