- "I wanted to see if I could touch the stars, you see"
- — Angry Birds: A Pig From The Stars And Other Stories 1
Bert is a painter who works in Pig Palace. He's the titular Pig From The Stars in the Angry Birds: A Pig From The Stars subseries. Despite this, he only actually appears in the first story of the first book, never being referenced again outside of the book's names.
Appearance[]
While Bert normally looks identical to a Minion Pig, he takes on a shiny, silver discoloration after his accident, falling into silver paint.
Personality[]
Something of a dreamer, Bert sometimes finds himself enamored by the stars. He's also highly impressionable, and has a tenuous grasp on reality. When he hits his head falling from a ladder, he begins to think that he came from the mural he was painting on the castle roof.
Book Appearances[]
Angry Birds: A Pig From The Stars And Other Stories 1[]
During a painting job on the roof of the Pig Palace, Bert becomes fixated on the stars in the sky. He sets up his ladder to try and touch them, but he ends up falling off the roof, dunking himself in silver paint on the way down. The painter soon finds himself landing on the head of King Smooth Cheeks, who questions him immediately. Bert, confused, says that he hails from the stars. King Pig is taken by the concept of a pig from the stars, and has a feast thrown for the pig.
Once Bert remembers who his is, he tries to leave, but is recognized by another Minion. Bert explains to everyone how he ended up landing on King Pigs head, and King Pig, in an uncharacteristic act of kindness and sympathy, lets Bert go. Bert thanks the King for his kindness, and runs out of the castle.
Relationships[]
Minion Pigs[]
While we don't get much in the way of interactions between Bert and other Minions, the few we see suggest that he's well liked by the other Minion Pigs. When recognized by the servant, he has nothing but good things to say about Bert, calling him a talented artist.
King Pig[]
King Pig oddly seems to relate to Bert. Once the King meets him, thinking him to be from the stars, King Pig shows a level of hospitality never usually seen by the monarch. Even when Bert is revealed to be a normal painter, his desire to touch the stars seems to resonate with the porcine patriarch, resulting in him being spared any punishment.
