Ficto-

Ficto/Ficto- (also known as Ficti-, Ficton-, Fictio-, Fiction- or Fictional-) is an orientation and umbrella term for anyone who experience exclusive attraction toward fictional characters, experience attraction to a general type of fictional characters, or whose orientation is influenced by fictional characters.

Some Ficto individuals experience attraction to certain genders in fiction, but don't experience attraction to said genders in the non-fictional world. For example, one may experience attraction to all genders in fiction, but only experience attraction to women in the non-fictional world. Other A-spec Ficto- individuals feels attraction exclusively to individuals whom they could never possibly be in a relationship with, such as fictional characters.

For some, Ficto- is an A-spec identity that is exclusive to A-spectrum people. Others consider Ficto- to be for anyone who wants to identify that way, Allo- or Aspec.

Flags
The most widely known Ficto- flag was made by Deviantart user Pride-Flags. Background stripes represent the asexuality felt towards anything but fictional characters. The pink hole represents a portal into the media of choice that allows for attraction- the fictional universe is in the circle, and it is filled with love/attraction. The flag designs with the black "portal" in the middle seem to be intended only for Aspec people, but this is not always respected when these flags are used.
