    It is not necessarily a character per se, but something akin to a body : an element through which you can influence and be influenced by the reality. Consider your mouse cursor for example : it lacks the humanization/personality of a character, at least imo, yet is the way you interact with most of your computer.

      Hmm, mouse pointer as minimal avatar. Desktop as minimal world. Interesting.
