'''Alph''', also known as simply '''Alien Dad''', is a recurring character in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].


==Characteristics==
Alph is an [[Alien]] who lives inside an [[U.F.O.]] alongside [[Beti]], [[Gammo]], and his three children, [[Alphette]], [[Betette]] and [[Gamette]].


'''Alph''' is one of the three aliens on the UFO in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]]. You have to activate all four generators with [[Ice Eggs]] in 20 seconds to power up the ship, allowing them to leave. They will give you a [[Jiggy]] in return and head to [[Hailfire Peaks]] to find their children.
==Biography==
===''Banjo-Tooie''===
Alph was first found inside his UFO alongside Beti and Gammo in [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]], during the events of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. They explain that they crashed into the water, and the drive unit of their ship ran out of fuel. As it is powered by crystallized ice, [[Kazooie]] needs to [[Egg Firing|fire]] [[Ice Egg]]s in all four crystals of the UFO to power it and allow the aliens to leave, heading to the Icy Side of [[Hailfire Peaks]] where their children landed and leaving a [[Jiggy]] behind.


Alph falls off the ship in Hailfire Peaks and dies, forcing [[Mumbo]] to use his magic to revive him. He then asks you to find all of the children. Once you do so, you'll get a Jiggy. After the task is done, Alph exclaims that it was done too slowly and says he will destroy the world, but finds that the weapons on his UFO aren't working, so he just decides to leave the Earth.
In the Icy Side of Hailfire Peaks, Alph opens the ship's door to "enable manual viewing," but ends up falling off and dying. Once [[Mumbo Jumbo]] [[Life Force|revives]] him with a [[Mumbo Pad]], he explains what happened to the kids and uses his "alien signal" to make them appear, asking for them to be rescued so the aliens can depart from Earth. Once Alphette, Betette and Gamette have been rescued, Alph prepares to exterminate all "Earthlings" for having taken too long, but as he can't find his laser, he decides to spare them, entering the UFO and leaving another Jiggy behind.

Some aliens also appear frozen in cryogenic capsules in the [[Terrarium of Terror]], although it is unspecified whether or not they are the same ones from ''Banjo-Tooie''.
