Al Frappacino
From ErfWiki
Proposed Canon
First Appearance: First Intermission 13
"Big" Al Frappacino is a Transylvitian Warlord. He acts as regent for the city of Aqua Velva. He keeps fish as pets.
Speculation
Al's race is not certain. Al is described as a "man" with a tan in Summer Update 13, but has vampire ears in the pictures of 13 and 14. He does not fly and is fat (Don_King is also fat, so this is not an indicator).
- He may be a vampire too fat to fly, and Jillian may call any humanoid unit a "man".
- He may be a vampire, and Jillian was simply calling him a "man" in reference to his gender, as opposed to his race.
- He may be a man that wears something on his ears to look more like his vampire friends.
- He may be a comedic character created with Rob's dramatic license simply to make us laugh.
- He may be a half vampire making reference to his last name.
Real World References
"Al Frappacino's" name is a reference to American actor Al Pacino, who is well known for playing mobsters like Michael Corleone in The Godfather films.[1] A "frappuccino" is also the name of a blended coffee drink sold by Starbucks, though it is spelled slightly differently than Al's last name.[2]
Al's attire, which consists of a toga, gold garland and sandals, is reminiscent of a Real World Roman patrician.
In Summer Update 13, Al calls himself "a weird guy."
