Alfonzo Elias Frohicky[2] is an anthropomorphic frog from the Wyldness[1] that used to live in the Crossroads and organized many events, including races, festivals and competitions. His friends from the Crossroads, Arin and Sora offered him to stay at the Monastery of Spinjitzu to help Lloyd maintain it as an Assistant Monastery Keeper. Despite having troubles with this job at first, he became fond of it and decided to stay and help the ninja in this way.
History[]
Background[]
Long ago, during Alfonzo's tadpole days, he learned of numerous tales about the Forbidden Five from his home realm[3] and the ninja from Ninjago.[4] At some point in his life, Alfonzo learned family recipes from his mother, grandmother and aunt. Following the unification of all realms by the Merge, Mr. Frohicky found himself residing in the Crossroads, whether due to the loss of his original home or a deliberate decision. Within the Crossroads, Mr. Frohicky was an organizer of many events like races, contests or festivals and formed a close bond with Arin and Sora, becoming steadfast friends.[5]
Tales from the Merged Realms[]
The Way In[]
Mr. Frohicky worked at the entry booth for the Mech Master 5000, serving as the event's manager. When Arin and Sora registered to enter, Arin offered him an appleberry pie in lieu of money for their entry fee. Although Mr. Frohicky declined at first, a quick whiff of the pie was more than enough to change his mind.

The Merge: Part 1[]
Mr. Frohicky enthusiastically announced the last opportunity to register for the Mech Master 5000. Sora, accompanied by Arin, interjects with excitement. Mr. Frohicky warmly greets the two friends, but he soon playfully commented on the SA Mark 01, implying that it may not be as impressive as some of Sora's previous creations. However, Sora confidently defends her mech, highlighting its potential. Mr. Frohicky mentions the top mechs from different realms and Ninjago that are present. Arin offered Mr. Frohicky a Snowberry Pie as a form of payment for their registration fees, which he initially refused but eventually accepted. With the registration settled, Mr. Frohicky instructed the two to line up for the race as he ate the pie then belched out the tray.

Discovering the Crossroads is having a Zane Day, Zane participates in the lookalike contest in order to win money for the part, only to come dead last. However, the consultation prize was a gift card for the junkyard.
The Last Djinn[]
Mr. Frohicky offering ice to Zane
While Zane was studying a portal gate and talking to a picture of P.I.X.A.L., Mr. Frohicky appeared, with a bucket holding an ice cube, and accidentally bumped into him. Zane grabbed onto his arm to stop him from falling down the stairs, as Mr. Frohicky told him he was being super quiet, before dropping the ice cube down the stairs, telling Zane he did not want to disturb whoever it was he was talking to. As Zane tells him he was speaking to a picture of P.I.X.A.L., Mr. Frohicky stuck his tongue onto the ice cube, pleading that her picture did not talk back, to which Zane replied saying it did not. As Zane explains how talking to her picture helps him solve problems, Mr. Frohicky tells him how long he has been studying the portal gate, so he fetched some ice cubes in order to help him keep his Ice powers in check. However, Zane reminded him that he can produce Ice at his own will whenever needed and demonstrates by conjuring another ice cube on top. Mr. Frohicky, embarrassed by this realization, requested for this to never be brought up again, before leaving.
Frohicky struggling to keep the Monastery clean
Back at the Monastery of Spinjitzu, Mr. Frohicky is scrubbing the hallways with a small toothbrush, believing that he'll be fired by the ninja if he does not get on top of his work. When Zane arrives and asked why he was doing this, Mr. Frohicky replied that the Monastery needs to be spotless when the others returned with the three Dragon Cores. However, Zane states it will take him 61,696 hours approximately to clean the Monastery due to how miniature the toothbrush is. So, he decided to get an automated mop machine from Kreel, however, he loses control of it and makes a mess of the relaxation/Arin and Sora's room, before having to have the machine frozen by Zane. After he thanks him, Mr. Frohicky rushes out to throw up, inadvertently doing it in the hallway.
Mr. Frohicky being confronted by Zane during his attempted departure
Mr. Frohicky then later decided to organize the library's scrolls alphabetically by author. However, Zane told him that the scrolls were meant to be ordered in chronological order, leaving him disappointed in himself once again.
Mr. Frohicky decided to pack his belongings and leave the Monastery, believing himself to be unworthy of his assistance to the ninja. Zane uses a technical example as an "adjustment period," which Mr. Frohicky did not understand, so Zane explained to him that he needs to allow himself to "de-pressurize" and adjust to the Monastery. Realizing the definition, he asks if he won't be considered to be the worst Assistant Keeper, to which Zane commented that since they never had an Assistant Keeper, he was already the worst, and the best at it, and that he is already welcomed onto the team.

After Zane telling the third core was on its way, Mr. Frohicky drove the Spinjitzu Race Car, saying he wasn't prepared to drive in these conditions telling the citizens of the Crossroads to watch out and get out his way. Zane managed to save him by freezing the car wheels preventing the car from moving. Asking Lloyd if he brought the core to the place, Lloyd assured that he did and told him he was still the best assistant keeper of the monastery much to his relief. He then fainted when one of the citizens caught in the storm that returned landed on the car's hood.

He gave them a note from Kreel who needed their help since a mysterious thief has been breaking into places, including her junkyard, without setting off alarms.

Zane was confused but Frohicky said it is due to Zane's heightened emotions can prevent a productive conversation. Zane asked about the decorations which Frohicky wanted to put on incase the portal gate activate again and had visitors. Zane urged Alfonzo not to block the gate, but Alfonzo initially refused, citing Zane's argument that the gate was not functioning properly due to its connection to Imperium. But Zane persisted and informed Alfonzo that the portal gate had mysteriously materialized as a result of the Merge's mystical energies, and could activate at any moment. Alfonzo eventually accepted Zane's words and ceased blocking the gate.
However, just as Alfonzo was descending the ladder, the portal gate suddenly activated, revealing Cole and the Finders, who landed on top of him. Cole reveals they were being chased wolf warriors.

Sora elaborated on the spectral invasions, explaining that the Forbidden Five and the Spectral Dragonians were capturing souls with the intent of allowing Thunderfang to evolve into a Source Dragon. To stop him, Sora, Wyldfyre, Frak, Riyu, and Zanth set off for Djinjago to awaken one half of the Arc Dragon of Focus, while Frohicky and Geo stayed behind to protect Cole and the Finders.
In an effort to help the hollowed Finders, Frohicky decided to offer them his aunt's broth, believing it might restore their vitality. However, Geo was concered about the broth's safety, remarking on its particularly foul odor. Frohicky reassured him that as long as the broth could be kept down, it would be effective. He then attempted to give the broth to Bonzle, only to discover that, as a skeleton, it simply passed through her. When Frohicky asked about Bonzle's eating habits, Geo grew frustrated, insisting that the specifics were irrelevant. Just then, they noticed the portal gate activating, and Ras emerged, filling Frohicky with dread as he questioned Ras' presence in the monastery. Ras commanded Frohicky and Geo to submit or face perish. Geo stood his ground, declaring that ninja never quit, to which Ras retorted that neither of them were ninja. Frohicky interjected, claiming that he and Geo were "ninja adjacents," and that they too would not give up.

Enraged, Ras chased after them as they hurried to gather the Finders and Cole, making their way to the elevator.

However, since he felt that he was not good enough for the job, he wanted to leave, but was convinced by Zane.
