Mac is a fictional character in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends and is voiced by Sean Marquette.

Personality

Mac is a bright, somewhat shy, square-headed, precocious, eight-year old boy who created Blooregard "Bloo" Q. Kazoo when he was three years old. Mac is unusually intelligent for his age, standing (according to his Coco Card) three feet, six inches tall and weighing 67 pounds with a sense of reason and somewhat large vocabulary to match. He tends to be the one to settle any mishaps that the imaginary friends (particularly Bloo) end up causing.

Mac is usually very good-natured despite Bloo's continuing antics - no matter what happens to Bloo or any other member of the house, Mac is usually the one to bail them out. However, he has been known to snap. Mac has a strongly moral personality and he always avoids doing wrong things but sometimes he is pushed to do otherwise almost always by Bloo.

Relationships

Even though they argue, Mac and Bloo are best friends. Mac often functions as Bloo's conscience since Bloo's freewheeling egotism often gets him into trouble even though in several episodes Bloo acts as the conscience and Mac has been a troublemaker. McCracken states that "Mac is a more like me now: aware of others' feelings, quiet, shy, sensitive. Mac also seems to look more like me as a little kid, which was unintentional but it just happened that way."

Mac has the ability to make friends with almost any imaginary friend, most notably Wilt, Coco and Eduardo. He also will look out for others as well, such as Ivan, a seeing eye friend who was separated from his blind creator Stevie and Cheese (although this is mainly because he thought that he created Cheese in his sleep). Mac was even once the sidekick to an imaginary superhero named Imaginary Man but later gave up the position so he could spend time with Bloo again. The only friends shown so far he hasn't gotten along with are Blake Superior (a superhero-like tiger friend created by Francis), Nemesister (Imaginary Man's archenemy and sister) and Dutchess.

Mac isn't very popular at his school, as shown in "Bye Bye Nerdy", where Bloo tries to make him cool but ends up embarrassing him in front of the whole city and the outset of "Hiccy Burp", where he is incensed about Richie Wilderbrat and his friend, Blake Superior. It looks like the only kids he has as friends are Goo and a kid seen in Bus the Two of Us who plays with vehicles. This may be related to his grumpiness, which as shown in "Go Goo Go" had him originally disliking Goo from seeing little worthwhile about her, although he completely befriends her when he realizes that, though extremely annoying, she has an extremely warm heart.

Family

Away from the house, he lives in an apartment with his mother and his older brother, the bothersome bully Terrence.

Conditions

He also has a condition in which he gets hyperactive and very crazy after eating only a small bit of sugar, as seen in "Partying is Such Sweet Soireé".).

Other

In the Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends video game, Mac is given the ability to double jump (for an unknown reason).
