Who am I? Just a conscience!
Introduce yourself
Hey, howdy, hey! The name's CHRIS, and I wished upon a star from MEMBER BEFORE. My other imaginary friends include DON KARNAGE, HANS. CLIFF SECORD and I are so very eager to join the Worlds of Disney circle of life!
Character basics
Character name: Cliff Secord
Age: 25
Species: Human
Birthplace: Los Angeles
Movie: The Rocketeer
Custom title: Like a hood ornament
Why'd you pick this character? The Rocketeer is one of my favorite underrated gems, and Cliff is a big reason why. He's not as cool as someone like Indiana Jones, more of an affable dork really, but that's part of his charm. He's just a regular, mostly upstanding guy who likes to fly and help people, and I think that'll be an interesting character type to play with around here.
Character appearance (try to get at least 2 or 3 sentences for each section)
Hair description: Cliff has floppy, parted brown hair. It usually fits snugly under his Rocketeer helmet.
Facial description/mood/expressions: Cliff is usually open and fresh-faced in terms of his expressions. It can certainly twist into irritation or anger, but most of the time he's very soft, energetic, and/or pleasant in his expressions and moods.
Clothing style: Cliff has a variety of casual wear in his day to day life. He can also dress up formally if the occasion calls for it. As the Rocketeer and a pilot, he usually settles for a brown flight jacket, beige pants, the rocket pack, and his helmet.
Body build: Cliff has a fairly average body build. There's some tightness and muscles but nothing extravagant.
Any unique traits (optional): N/A
Original character analysis (In your own words and please be thorough)
Personality:
History:
But fortune would seemingly smile upon Cliff and Peevy again when they discovered a strange device in the trunk of one of their planes. It was a rocket pack! Cliff got it into his head to use it for airshows to try and pay Bigelow back, though Peevy mused that it probably belonged to the feds and was eager to return it. However, Cliff insisted that they at least try and use it before returning, to which Peevy reluctantly agreed for the moment and they began testing it. Cliff tried to tell Jenny about the rocket at her acting job, though he ended up accidentally destroying sets in the process and was kicked off the set. Afterwards, his friend Malcolm, a WWI veteran pilot, attempted to do a clown show to help out Cliff, but he ended up losing control. Thinking quickly, Cliff put on the rocket and helmet that Peevy had made, rescuing Malcolm in a series of daring, high-flying stunts. The press and Bigelow had a field day with the publicity, ultimately calling him "The Rocketeer".
More trouble was ahead, however. A big lug named Lothar, sent by movie star Neville Sinclair (a secret Nazi agent who was starring in the film that Jenny was in), came to Cliff and Peevy's house to try and steal the rocket back. He was followed by the FBI and a shootout ensued, destroying the home, though Cliff and Peevy managed to get away with both their lives and the rocket (Lothar got away with some schematics that Peevy'd drawn). Then some of Valentine's men showed up at the airfield diner, threatening the patrons and demanding information on Cliff (who was now there along with Peevy). Both parties learned of Jenny's involvement with Sinclair and that she was on a date with him at the South Seas Club. Cliff and the patrons managed to overcome the gangsters and he started to head towards the club, though not before patching up a stray bullet hole with some of Peevy's luck pilot's gum.
At the club, Cliff disguised himself as a waiter to get close to Sinclair and Jenny; getting her alone, he told her about his new identity and instructed her to go to her mother's house and stay there until everything blew over. A fight ensued in the club between Cliff, Valentine's men, and Sinclair, though he managed to escape after destroying much of the scenery. Jenny ended up captured, however, and forced to leave a message for Cliff to bring the rocket to Griffith Park Observatory. Before he could, however, he and Peevy were arrested by FBI agents, who took them to a hangar run by Howard Hughes himself. Hughes explained the history of the rocket and how the Nazis wanted it, even showing a propaganda film to impress the seriousness of the situation. Cliff told Hughes that he had to use the rocket one more time and managed to escape, somewhat impressing Hughes with his gumption. At the observatory, Valentine and Sinclair confronted Cliff, who revealed Sinclair's affiliation with the Nazis. Shocked, Valentine turned on Sinclair, saying that while he wasn't honest, he sure as heck wasn't going to take working for a Nazi lying down. Sinclair had a backup plan however and called out hidden commandos.
Just when things were looking dire, the FBI showed up and a massive shootout ensued, Valentine and his gang teaming up with the agents to take out the Nazis. Sinclair attempted to escape with Jenny on an arriving zeppelin, but Cliff went after them. The ensuing struggle left the zeppelin in flames, and Sinclair threatened them both. Cliff ended up giving the rocket to him after all....but not before removing the gum from the bullet hole. Leaking fluid, Sinclair attempted to fly off but ended up engulfed in flames and flew into the "Land" part of the Hollywoodland sign, blowing himself and it up. At the last moment, Cliff and Jenny were rescued by Hughes and Peevy in a gyro plane. After everything was settled, Hughes gifted Cliff with a new plan and Peevy with plans for a new rocket. All was well.
Ambitions:
Cliff honestly doesn't have much in the way of ambitions. He just wants to fly and be a good boyfriend to Jenny, maybe marry her someday.
Strengths & abilities:
Cliff is by all standards an excellent pilot either by plane or by jetpack. He knows the ins and outs of both, although in terms of mechanics, he usually knows more about what's wrong than how to fix it (that's Peevy's expertise). Apart from that, he's fairly personable and able to interact well with people of most stripes, and he's a decent hand-to-hand fighter on top of it.
Flaws:
Likes:
Jenny, Peevy, Malcolm, his other friends at the diner, flying
Dislikes:
Neville Sinclair, Nazis, bullies of any stripe like Bigelow
Fears:
