Synopsis

Santa has been missing from his workshop for the past few days on the lead up of the Christmas season. The elves have been working away in his absence to try and make Christmas possible but Dylon, an elf who hates a Merry Christmas has hatched a plot to trap his colleges and mass produce new experiments of evil toys brought to life as weapons. Ralph was late to work when Dylon assumed control and discovers that the atmosphere has changed. The machines and toys warped into sinister forms and the other elves are missing. It is up to Ralph to restore the factory and elves as well as Santa to save Christmas in time.

Ralph Bio
Name: Ralph Age: 6 Height: 60.96 cm (2 foot) Gender: Male Bio: Ralph is a young elf in training, and he works hard to learn the trade of making traditional toys and understanding what Christmas entails. He carries a candy cane which is the source of his magic. He also has a set of wooden tools to create the toys along the factory line which is then assessed by the head elf before the final decision from Santa. Ralph is sometimes a little careless and makes a few mistakes that costs the particular line to remake a set of toys again but Ralph lets his determination drive him to keep improving his skills and abilities to hopefully become more respected and work on bigger and more complicated projects.

Dylan Bio
Name: Dylon Age: 8 Height: 75cm (2.5 feet) Gender: male Bio: Dylon is also a young elf in training but hates the traditional sense of Christmas and all it represents. Dylon is also Ralphs main rival as he despises Ralphs merry attitude to the Christmas season and trying to be a good elf so uses any opportunity to sabotage his work. Dylon doesn't participate in any of the traditional roles that is expected of an elf and instead works on his own deadly experiments. Eventually he creates a whole army of toys with his power tools to dwarf Santas traditional view and they help Dylon take over the factory and create his own Christmas.
