Dreamfinder was a character that first appeared in the original incarnation of Journey Into Imagination, an attraction that operated from 1982 to 1998 at EPCOT Center's Imagination Pavilion at Walt Disney World. Dreamfinder's backstory is later explored in Disney Kingdoms: Figment, an ongoing Marvel Comics title that began in 2014, where his real name is revealed as Blarion "Blair" Mercurial.

The Dreamfinder created Figment, a tiny royal purple dragon made of two tiny wings, big yellow eyes, horns of a steer and the body of a lizard and a nose of a crocodile, plus a dash of childish delight. He teaches Figment about the wonders of imagination and takes riders along through all of Figment's overdone splendors in his machine's Idea Bag.

Dreamfinder was recycled from concepts for a character named Professor Marvel designed for the unbuilt Discovery Bay. Professor Marvel was an eccentric bearded inventor that was the host of "Professor Marvel's Gallery of Illusion" who was accompanied by a pet dragon. When Discovery Bay was scrapped, the project's designer Tony Baxter sought out ways to recycle some of his ideas and initially planned to bring a Professor Marvel-inspired character to The Land pavilion called "The Landkeeper", who would have hosted the attraction that became Listen to the Land.

Eventually, Tony was put onto Kodak's Imagination pavilion and the whimsical inventor found a home there as the Dreamfinder, with the dragon's color changing from green to purple to become Figment. Within Journey into Imagination's metaphoric storyline about the creative process, Dreamfinder became a manifestation of "the right brain" to Figment's "left brain", and represented the refined creative palette of an adult in contrast to Figment's childlike whimsy.

He appears in "Disney Kingdoms: Figment" and "Disney Kingdoms: Figment 2."
