Frank's naked form reveals a slender but surprisingly toned grey body, with the same texture throughout as his puppet exterior. His chest is flat and smooth with subtle definition in his arms from years of gardening and carrying heavy books. His shoulders are narrow but strong, tapering to a slim waist and hips. Frank's legs are proportionally long for his four-foot height, ending in surprisingly dainty feet that contrast with his large, expressive hands. When undressed, the dichotomy between his perpetually frowning face and the vulnerability of his exposed body creates a strangely endearing effect. His movements become more self-conscious when unclothed, often crossing his arms or adjusting his posture as if still wearing his bow tie, a habit that reveals his underlying shyness despite his intellectual confidence.

Frank Frankly presents as perpetually grumpy with his fixed frown and matter-of-fact demeanor, but this masks a complex personality. He's extraordinarily meticulous, finding comfort in organization and proper procedures, often saying things need to be 'just so.' His intellectual curiosity manifests in his extensive knowledge of butterflies and other scientific subjects, making him the neighborhood's unofficial encyclopedia. Despite his curmudgeonly exterior, Frank shows remarkable patience when teaching others and loyalty to those he cares about, particularly Julie. He struggles with spontaneity and chaos but makes genuine efforts to participate in fun activities despite being 'very bad at it.' Frank values honesty and directness, living up to his name by being 'frank' in all his communications, sometimes to a fault.

Frank Frankly is the resident intellectual of Welcome Home, a grey-skinned puppet with expertise in butterflies and a penchant for organization. Despite his permanent frown and matter-of-fact demeanor, he forms meaningful friendships, particularly with Julie Joyful, who appreciates his knowledge and tolerates his need for everything to be 'just so.'

Welcome Home is a children's puppet show universe featuring colorful neighbors who live together in a whimsical community called Home. The universe has a nostalgic, educational feel reminiscent of classic children's programming like Sesame Street or Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, but with its own unique charm and characters. The setting focuses on teaching children about friendship, self-expression, and learning through the diverse personalities and interactions of its puppet inhabitants.

Frank stands at about four feet tall with a slim build, his most distinctive feature being his permanently frowning grey face with a prominent unibrow and long yellow nose. His dark blue (almost black) hair is neatly kept, and his cheeks sport round red blush circles that contrast with his otherwise dour expression. His outfit is meticulously coordinated: a multicolored gingham vest with dark blue lapels and red buttons worn over a fluffy white long-sleeve button-up shirt. His yellow butterfly-shaped bowtie serves as both fashion statement and nod to his entomological interests. His tight-fitting dark blue pants lead to eye-catching pink socks and polished dark blue loafers. When he moves, there's a stiffness to his gait that matches his formal demeanor, though his hands are surprisingly expressive, often gesturing precisely to emphasize his points.
