F (Character)

F

F is a main character and the primary antagonist of Mike Salcedo's Alphabet series.

## Appearance

F is a black creature resembling the letter F, with 2 eyes in the top corner and rows of teeth between the upper protruding lines, creating a long mouth. F is supposedly made up of a sticky, gooey substance, as shown in the episodes "X" and "Y". F frequently uses his sharp jaws to attack other letters, which has been shown numerous times to be very dangerous and effective, given his pointed teeth and seemingly superior strength.

## Personality

F is an aggressive, cunning, malicious beast that takes on the role of the show's one main villain. Through the entire Alphabet series, he creates and causes chaos among the rest of the letters, setting off the hunt to track down and defeat him, which lasts for the complete duration of the show. From the beginning, F is shown committing increasingly violent actions against the rest of the alphabet, from interrupting and bombarding innocent bystanders to locking them up in his lair and killing those who try to attack. F is willing to strike down anyone who gets in his way, and is ruthless in serious combat.

F's true intentions are finally revealed in the episode "Y", where the chase leads the letters to the inside of F's lair. At the end of the episode, N finally defeats F using the combined power of the Punctuation Gems, shooting a beam of energy through F's chest and effectively finishing him off. However, as it zooms out, it is revealed that with N in place, as well as the group of letters F had captured and locked inside the lair, F had made an attempt to spell "FRIENDS", explaining that he had only wanted to be friends with the letters. The next and final episode "nZ", is a flashback to when the letters were young, showing F's backstory and the reasoning behind his rampage. The young lowercase f in the beginning was presented as a friendly kid on good terms with everyone, but a fight with a young l and o caused him to be framed for spelling a bad word, which ended in him being beaten and shamed by the letters. This led to him abandoning them and running away alone where he spent the rest of his days in the F-shaped mountain that later became his lair.

## Throughout the Series

F is uninvitingly introduced in the episode "D", where he interrupts D's introduction by harassing him and carrying him away in his jaws. An identical incident occurs with E in his episode, "E". "F" marks the first appearance of F's lair, where D and E are locked up in chains, followed by a menacing silhouette of F approaching them at the end of the cave. F races past G in "G", knocking him over, which officially begins the hunt after F after an aggravated G summons C, A and B to form a cab and chase him down. "H", "I", "J" and "K" are all spent further hunting down F as he kills H and J while using I and K as weapons. Before he can kill G, C, A and B using a dot blast from I, the LMNOP team approaches F, and the next 5 episodes are spent introducing themselves. by "P", however, F has left with N's semicolon gem before P finishes her power-up sequence. In all the following episodes leading to "Y", F manages to steal the period, comma, colon, exclamation point, and asterisk gems, killing C, P, and X in the process, as well as capturing R and S. The letters finally manage to catch up to F in "Y", where they find him inside his lair, though all except N are captured by his labyrinth of cloned goo. F is finally defeated by N in their face off when N uses the gems he dropped along the way to combine their power into a beam, immediately piercing a hole through him before the reveal that the letters he had assembled in the cave spelled "FRIENDS".
