Rocket Racoon

Real Name: 89P13. Name: Rocket. Nicknames: Badger, Rabbit. Age: Unknown, possibly mid 30s in human years. Gender: Male. Species: Halfworlder/Evolved Raccoon. Height: 3'1". Job: Rocket is a member of the Guardians of The Galaxy. Residence: Anywhere, as long as he has his ship and his team. Team: Guardians of the Galaxy. Likes: Raccoon likes his friends, escaping from prison, music, rewards, guns, prosthetic body parts, and exploring. He also likes roast turkey, star soup, chocolate, tequila, making fun of people. Dislikes: Rocket doesn’t like being called a "raccoon", "rodent" or "vermin". He also doesn't like seeing his friends in danger, Baby Groot's mischief, being petted like an animal, being touched, getting chased, drowning, and he doesn't like Thor doing anything disturbing. Close Friends: His close friends are Star Lord, Groot, Gamora, Drax the Destroyer, and Mantis. Deceased Friends: Lylla, Teefs, and Floor. Enemies: Rocket's enemies are Thanos, Doctor Doom, Ronan, and Red Skull. Family: Rocket does not have a family, but he considers Groot his son. Relationship Status: Rocket appears to be the only sentient animal in the galaxy, and doesn’t seem to have any suitable mates. Still, it doesn’t seem to bother him – he usually has more immediate issues to deal with. Personality: Due to the inhumane experiments done to him, Rocket became bitterly, even bitingly sarcastic, foul-mouthed and cynical, as well as generally misanthropic, but in recent years seems to have adopted a more calm and temperamental demeanor. He is also easily enraged and extremely aggressive, which, in turn, makes him exceedingly trigger-happy with an innate desire for violence. Despite his toughness, he also possesses a cruel and slightly morbid sense of humor. Rocket is hotheaded, funny, and sarcastic. Many people look at Rocket and see a raccoon, but Rocket refuses to see himself as a lower life form. He’s quick to anger and demands the same respect that would be due to anyone else. If someone continues to anger him they’ll find themselves on the business end of Rocket’s unfeasibly large cannon. While he’s quick to berate other people, Raccoon has a soft side and truly prizes his friendship with Groot. He appears to pride himself on his abilities and professionalism, which is indicated by when he spoke harshly to Groot when he childishly drank out of a fountain then smiled about it. A true criminal, Rocket has a higher sense of self-preservation and interests than the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy. In the conflict against Thanos, he volunteered himself and Groot to go with Thor to Nidavellir as opposed to going with his fellow Guardians to confront Thanos directly, and Star-Lord points this out. He will cave into pessimism and panic in a situation that is out of his depth as he was the first to consider simply giving the Infinity Stone to Ronan the Accuser after realizing its destructive purposes and instead of fighting the Accuser after coming into the possession of the Stone, planned to run away to "the furthest corners of the galaxy" with Groot. However, through Groot's convincing and having coming to care about Quill, Gamora and Drax the Destroyer, Rocket had a change of heart and decided to face Ronan with his newfound friends. Rocket is a brilliant mechanic who is able to create novel and powerful weapons and explosives out of odds-and-ends. When he’s not shooting things or berating Groot, chances are that he’s building a better bomb. Appearance: Powers: Halfworlder Physiology. Rocket is a bionically augmented raccoon evolved into a Halfworlder due to OrgoCorp's experimentations. His enhancements include a cybernetic skeletal structure, enhanced phalange, and metacarpal bones, and a genetically augmented cerebral cortex. Enhanced Strength. Due to his augmentations, Rocket is able to use weapons that are designed to be wielded by normal sized humanoids with ease. He was also able to swiftly tackle Gamora to the ground when she attempted to assassinate Star-Lord to get the Orb and easily stun many human-sized Ravagers using his strength. Enhanced Durability. Due to his cybernetic implants, such as a cybernetic skeletal structure, Rocket is capable of surviving damage that would normally be sufficient to kill an animal of his size, as well as injure a normal sized human. He has been attacked with enough force to knock him back several meters and only suffered minimal injury, as well as withstood being thrown by Gamora, being blasted by the Universal Weapon and surviving Ego's attacks. Even more impressively, he survived being pinned under an enormous amount of debris when Thanos attacked the Avengers' headquarters, albeit he had trouble breathing. Abilities: Genius-Level Intellect. Due to the modifications done by High Evolutionary, Rocket possesses genius intellect that rivals renowned scientists such as Tony Stark and Bruce Banner. Rocket's genius intellect was present even as a child. He could figure out the solution to creating advanced lifeforms without inducing rage when observing the faulty filtration systems delivering the chemicals to induce the artificial evolution, something even the High Evolutionary could not deduce. Rocket could also generate a key card to unlock the pens he and his friends were trapped in by utilizing a combination of spare parts he had smuggled in. The High Evolutionary himself noted Rocket to be the only test subject with the ability to invent and create new ideas instead of memorizing what had already been taught to him. It was for this reason the High Evolutionary became obsessed with obtaining Rocket's brain to replicate his genius intellect and creative mind. Weapons: Ion Cannon; Rocket's favorite weapon, until he was forced to sell it in the Hub in order to obtain some fast cash. Laser Cannon; Rocket's new weapon, described as "the juiciest killware seen in ages," and obtained in a confiscated weapons case in a customs station in the Hub. He shot at Peter Quill with it to prevent him from escaping in Xandar right before being apprehended by the Nova Corps, and threatened Drax with it in Knowhere. He incapacitated Gamora right before escaping from the destruction of Ego, to prevent her from sacrificing herself in an attempt to rescue Quill from there. Nova Machine Gun; Rocket used this gun after Drax tossed it to him in order to destroy the Kyln Hoverbots during their breakout. Groot's Personality: Groot is usually very gentle and warm, displaying kindness towards innocent life. His child-like personality often causes him to be distracted and simple-minded, such as by a water fountain that he kept drinking from in public while Rocket was trying to talk to him and then trying to deny it. He tends to not listen to plans and goes off to tackle threats on his own, such as when he wandered off from Rocket to remove a power source in the Kyln without listening to the full plan and missing the fact that it needed to be taken last. During intense or serious situations, Groot is sometimes smiling gleefully, such as when he and Rocket where trying to abduct Peter Quill on Xandar or after impaling several Sakaarans on his vines and angrily thrashing them around a hallway for several seconds. He is loyal to Rocket and the other Guardians, and was even willing to die to protect them, as shown in the Battle of Xandar. However, he can also be merciless and savagely brutal towards his enemies, especially if they threaten his friends, as shown when lifted an inmate on the Kyln into the air by his nose to cause him enough pain to leave him sobbing on the floor, all just because he got in the way of himself and Rocket and threatened Quill, who was their bounty.
