Team Rocket (Midnight Crew) Application
Name: Clubs Deuce
Goes by: Clubs, Deuce (maybe), or Shorty
Position: Minion with an F in evil
Party:
First up we have Shrapnel (AKA Shortfuse) the Electrode! Usually spotted with a wide toothy grin, this round bicoloured ball is a good-humoured fella! The only problem is, his idea of a punchline stems from cartoons in which the victim ends up black and charred. Exploding doesn't do any actual harm to an Electrode themselves, so he amuses himself by blowing up in the funniest places.
Second comes Puff the Drifloom. She's the quiet sort. She's the most obedient and passive of the three, and just dances the borderline between cute and eerie. Not much of a power hitter, but a good replacement for air travel for a small guy like Clubs.
(Funny, why does her face look so similar to Clubs...)
Lastly, Licorice the Deino. He's rather thick, but eager. Excitable, but daft. Foolish, though-- Okay, you get the idea. He's also blind, and relies on his other senses, like taste and smell. Just like Terezi! Except, in a more rough and thickheaded manner.
Appearance:
Clubs Deuce is a very short and stout little man. (I think of him as about three feet.)
His uniform is a black coat and a porkpie hat. But he has a love for extravagant, silly hats, even though the big boss doesn't like it when Clubs wears 'em.
Biography: Clubs was actually a victim of Team Rocket at first. The criminal organization was surprised to find Clubs later trotting into their building and politely, innocently asking if they were "done borrowing his Pokémon."
Through an awkward set of circumstances, Clubs was taken onto the staff, mostly because Team Rocket thought he would be easy to dupe into doing the work no one else was stupid or "small-time" enough to take on.
He proved himself to be skilled with explosives, which is why he works will with Shrapnel. Other than that, he's just the go-to flunky!
Personality: He's actually kind of a dope. So clueless that most would refer to him as a simpleton.
Clubs has a childlike innocence to him that is rarely seen in any villainous organizations. Rage and hatred never seems to register in his mind. He is however, a very obedient lackey. No task is too stupid for Clubs to take seriously.
That said, when handed serious tasks, Clubs has trouble carrying them out in the manner intended. He's easily sidetracked - the trivial is extremely interesting to this little man. When unsupervised, Clubs is an aimless wild card.
Morals are a fuzzy concept at best, for an innocent fella like Clubs. When distracted from his "evil" task, he can easily be convinced into doing something else, if the logic seems sound to his virgin mind.
He isn't really the sharpest tool in the shed, but he's certainly the most versatile. Also the most eager to please.
In essence, he's the cute/comic relief of Teamidnight Rockrew!
