Ralph Benedict

Ralph Benedict, also known as Uncle Ralphie, is an immortal being who resides in Kazooland.

Appearance
He appears humanlike, with pallid light gray or white skin. He has a very wide grin, and a small, prominent chin with a swirl on it. He has short blue hair, and an extremely long blue mustache styled into large spirals on either side of his head. His eyebrows are similarly styled, though slightly shorter than the mustache. He has a sharp pointed nose and blue eyes.

He wears a bright yellow-orange top hat, with a blue ribbon above the brim. A flower decorates the ribbon; the center of the flower is an eyeball with a bright green iris.

His complexion is consistent with people who have experienced high exposure to Blue Matter, such as the Walter Workers.

No official art or depiction of his body from the neck down exist as of the time of writing.

Personality and Traits
Little is known about Ralph Benedict, other than his penchant for running “unforgettable spectacles” of shows. He searches for the most unique and interesting performers he can find across the universe in order to populate these festivals.

It is said that he has a maniacal laugh.

History
Steam Powered Giraffe headlined at two of Ralph Benedict’s shows; Ralph Benedict's Bayou Music Festival in 1898, and Uncle Ralphie's Magical Musical Sideshow Spectacular in December 2011. Between these shows it is said he was inactive for a vague “several decades”, probably meeting and hiring circus performers from Kazooland.

An additional show referred to as Uncle Ralphie's Magic Jukebox Band is also mentioned, but never given a precise time and place.

Peter Walter I
Judging by Steam Powered Giraffe's presence at several of Ralph Benedict's festivals over time, it is speculated that Mr. Benedict had personal connections with Peter Walter I, though it could purely be his professional interest in unusual forms of entertainment.

Trivia

 * Steamboat Shenanigans refers heavily to events that transpired at Ralph Benedict's Bayou Music Festival. Notably, the name of the steam ship is consistent with the festival’s, along with burning a hole through the deck due to how rousing the music became. Rabbit also calls Uncle Ralphie by name towards the end of the song.
