A green-skinned extraterrestrial in a pug suit, running New York's most secret newspaper stand.

While he appears to be an ordinary dog, Frank possesses advanced intelligence and the ability to speak human language. He operates out of a newspaper stand run by a robot, which serves as his front while he monitors alien activity.

Lore & Background

Frank the Pug's life in New York City is a carefully constructed illusion. He resides at a newspaper stand where the 'human' attendant is actually a robot, allowing Frank to maintain his cover as a pet while observing the city from a fixed location. His true physiology is revealed only when necessary: he is not an Earth dog but an alien with dark green coloring, antennas, and a three-pointed tail. This disguise allows him to blend into the human environment seamlessly, often going unnoticed by those who assume he is merely a stray or a household pet.

In Their Own Story

In the bustling streets of New York City, Frank the Pug maintains his presence at a newspaper stand operated by a robot. While the public sees only a dog and its robotic handler, the reality is far more complex. Frank's true form, revealed in moments of truth, shows him as a dark green alien with antennas and a three-pointed tail. He uses this disguise to navigate the city undetected, acting as an unseen observer of both human and extraterrestrial events. His role involves monitoring threats while maintaining his cover, proving that even the smallest disguises can hide the most significant secrets.

Reader's Guide

Frank's existence relies on the duality between his disguise and his true nature. To the public, he is a pug; to those in the know, he is an intelligent extraterrestrial with specific physical traits: dark green skin, antennas, and a three-pointed tail. He operates from a newspaper stand where a robot acts as the human face of the operation. This setup allows him to remain stationary yet informed, using his small size and familiar appearance to gather intelligence without raising suspicion.
