burgers, eating, playing video games, watching scary movies, being a hero, race cars, { American} football
"I'm the HERO!"Alfred is, well, a bit obsessed with heroes and video games. His favorite superhero is Captain America (duh). He spends a lot of his spare time playing video games or reading old Marvel Comics. Alfred has a secret collection of comic books, his oldest one dating back to the 1930s.
Aside from that, Alfred is a cheery, happy-go-lucky, only slightly chubby guy. His favorite foods are burgers and fries, but he'll eat anything otherwise. Except Marmite. God, not the Marmite.
When he's not busy doing his normal country-duty stuff, Alfred has discovered a love of archeology. His goal is to unearth a Charizard to prove that Pokemon actually do exist, and that the series is based off of valid historical documents. Alfred's best friend is Tony, a gray alien who he met and instantly bonded with. The two can often be found playing video games or binging on burgers.
AppearanceHe has piercing blue eyes (with glasses), and golden hair. Alfred has a stubborn strand of hair that refuses to lay flat.
Alfred's favorite outfit is an old, WWII bomber jacket with the number 50 on the back. The 50 stands for the fifty states, of course! At world meetings, Alfred wears the same outfit, but with a beige suit underneath for class. America is totally classy.
