Paper

Paper, labeled The Psycho (originally The Innocent Psycho), was a male contestant on Inanimate Insanity. He started on Team Epic and was the first eliminated, then rejoined the show as a member of Team Chickenleg in Double Digit Desert. He didn't compete on Inanimate Insanity II but remains in Hotel OJ with his friends. He is voiced by Justin Chapman.

Appearance
Paper is a square sheet of loose-leaf paper with rounded edges. He has seven light blue horizontal lines across his body and one pink vertical line near his left side. Also along his left side are three holes.

Personality
At the beginning of the series, Paper was a friendly, innocent contestant. This is the most clearly seen when he hangs out with Knife and watches Desperate Housewives instead of doing the challenge in A Lemony Lesson. However, his trusting nature and physical weakness made him an easy target, so he was eliminated first.

Despite being the first out, it was clear that his stay on Idiotic Island affected his mental health greatly. In addition to exacerbating his anger issues, he developed a split personality. His alter, Evil Paper, committed acts of violence, such as when he killed OJ in Aquatic Conflict. Later, with OJ's help, Paper figured out that he was triggered by the words "Idiotic Island," and strove to fix his mental health problem. Although Paper expressed remorse for many of Evil Paper's actions, he was still shown to be rather self-centered. The most notable instance of his was when he drank a juice-box instead of giving it to a sick OJ in. However, it seems that he did this due to obliviousness, not malice. When he realized his mistake, he apologized and pledged his allegiance to OJ, and helped him win the challenge in The Tile Divide.

Although he is not much of a leader, Paper seems to be both responsible and good at expressing himself. He is responsible enough to stand in for OJ in the first issue of Inanimate Comics, and is well-spoken enough to represent OJ as his attorney in Everything's A-OJ.

 * Paper has been noted for his similarities to Mike from Total Drama: Revenge Of The Island, because both have alters that are defeated in similar ways.
