Frank

The enemy form of Frank, encountered in combat. In this form, Frank is driven by his internal parasite Frank's Bean, and uses a powerful suction attack to inhale nearby cats. This incarnation represents the dangerous, corrupted side of the hunchbacked NPC before his parasitic passenger ultimately departs for a new host.

Frank's KirbySuck attack pulls nearby cats toward him, potentially repositioning them into melee range against their will. With 12 HP he goes down relatively quickly, but the inhale attack can disrupt carefully arranged formation and drag support or ranged cats into danger before you can finish him off.

Kill Frank quickly before he can use KirbySuck to disrupt your positioning. Ranged attackers or abilities with long reach can chip him down safely before the inhale pull threatens them. Understanding that Frank's Bean is the parasite controlling him adds context — defeating Frank ends the encounter, after which the Bean may move on to other business in the narrative.
