Flap

Flap is a male bat character who appeared in JumpStart Adventures 4th Grade: Haunted Island. He is commonly seen as the mascot for that game.

Appearance
Flap has purple fur, darker purple eyebrows, and a darker purple tuft of scruffy hair on top of his head. He has large eyes, a small pointed nose,  pointy ears, and a wide mouth with two small fangs. Although he has bat wings, he also has small human-like hands. Each hand has three fingers. He also has wide, flat feet.

Personality
Flap is friendly and helpful. He knows the Haunted Island extremely well and is able to find his way around while avoiding Ms. Grunkle.

Some details into Flap's past and personality were only mentioned on the old Knowledge Adventure website. Flap's biography stated that he used to be child until Ms. Grunkle cast a spell on him that turned him into a bat. The site also mentioned that Flap considers himself to be everyone's best friend, and that he gets along with all of the island dwellers. One of the Flap's favorite pastimes is hanging upside down from tree branches and singing "Old MacDonald." Flap is also a vegetarian, since he says that he doesn't have the heart to eat another animal.

Flap serves as the player's guide. He can help the player by giving advice, and explains how the game's activities are played. He has his own icon in the toolbar in the bottom of the screen. If the player clicks on it, he appears to help. He will always greet the player when they sign in or start a new game.
