Earl

Earl (伯爵) is one of the main titular protagonists of ToeJam & Earl series.

Concept and creation
The idea for Earl came when creator Greg Johnson had a dream. In said dream, he talked to “rapper homeboy” aliens. He jotted down the idea onto a piece of paper, and the next morning, came up with the designs.

His name came when Greg Johnson and Mark Voorsanger were taking a walk on Mount Tam. His original name was “Whirl”, but Mark misunderstood it as “Earl.”

Appearance
Earl is an obese orange extraterrisal hailing from the Planet Funkotron. He has two antenna at the top his head and wears sneakers, sunglasses and a pair of polka-dotted trunks (which occasionally fall off). In recent appearance, he now wears a ski hat, a pair of blue jean shorts, and even aquired a belt with his first intial engraved! In Mission to Earth, he had a tattoo on his upper back, but has since been removed.

Abilities
What Earl lacks for in speed, he makes up for in stamina. In recent installments, he's even able to be healed when eating rotten food!

Personality
Earl is a chill and laid-back soul who never likes to cause any trouble. He doesn't say or speak much, and usually, he goes with whatever idea ToeJam has and comes along for the ride. He looks after his friend Latisha, too, and treats her like that of a little sister.
