Alan Ripple

Alan Ripple is a character in the 2023 Disney/Pixar animated feature film Elemental. He is Wade Ripple's older brother.
==Background==
===Personality===
Alan is a very kind-hearted individual who is very welcoming to other elements, especially fire. Alan is also very social as he struck up a friendly conversation with Ember Lumen when she was invited to his family's home for dinner. Alan does seem to have a good relationship with his younger brother, Wade though he does like to tease him at times. Much like everyone else in his family, Alan is prone to tears. He even has a tendency to be clumsy despite it being unintentionally as he accidentally broke a pitcher when laughing too hard.
===Physical appearance===
Alan's body is entirely made up of translucent blue water, with waves on the top of his head that resemble flat hair. He is tall and has blue eyes. His outfit consists of a green dress shirt with pale stripes and a navy blue apron.
==Role in the film==
When Wade introduces Ember to his family, he introduces her to his brother Alan living with his wife Eddy. Alan introduces Ember to two children who are swimming around named Marco and Polo and as they approach, Alan tells them to take it easy on Ember. He then passes by Harold and Brook, asking Ember if Wade is definitely afraid of sponges, which Ember denies. Later during dinner with his family, Alan accidentally breaks the pitcher he is using, which Ember uses her fiery ability to fix the broken pitcher, impressing Alan and the rest of the Ripples. Later during the Crying Game where Wade tells Ember that the light inside her made him feel like that he wants her to be near him, Alan and the rest of the Ripples emotionally react to Ember and Wade's relationship.
During the climax of the film, Alan and the rest of the Ripples are seen bidding a farewell to Wade who is leaving just before Wade's relatives began crying together, only for Wade to notice Ember in danger, due to the water bursting through the glass wall Ember made, flowing through the canal. Alan does not appear again throughout the rest of the film.
