Napoleon Dynamite is the protagonist in the film Napoleon Dynamite.
He is a stereotypical teenaged geek who enjoys mundane diversions such as drawing creatures such as ligers (which he describes "as pretty much his favorite animal, a cross between a lion and a tiger, bred for its skills in magic"), drinking milk, eating Tater Tots, and playing tetherball. As the film progresses, Napoleon develops an interest in hip-hop dancing, which proves valuable in securing his friend Pedro's eventual election as student body president. Napoleon has a flat, listless personality and poor social skills. His awkward appearance and behavior are the source of much of the film's comedy. He is active in the FFA and his school's sign language club (the "Happy Hands Club"), and has worked at least once at a local poultry farm where he was payed a dollar an hour. His best (and only) friends, are Pedro and Deb.
