Roark "Rocky" Rickaby joined the Lackadaisy crew as a rumrunner and a violinist, who plays in Zib's band. After the death of Atlas and the departure of much of Lackadaisy Speakeasy's staff, Rocky began doing odd jobs for Mitzi May. He is the nephew of Nina and is also Freckle's older cousin.

Rocky is a young adult cat with gray and beige fur, blue eyes, and a bushy, tabby tail. His usual attire consists of a blue suit and hat, complemented by an orange tie featuring the initial 'R.' He also wears a white undershirt. His fur is gray on the back of his body and mostly beige on the front, including his face. Prominent features of Rocky include his thick eyebrows and a bullet hole in his ear. He has thick, fluffy fur.

Rocky is, at the first glance, jaunty, humorous, happy-go-lucky, immature, reckless, buffoonish, grandiloquent and zany. He has a knack for joking and spontaneously laughing in the most inappropriate of moments, usually to the annoyance (and mild concern) of others. He is outwardly the polar opposite of his more reserved and humble cousin, Calvin “Freckle” McMurray, though the two share a similar sense of complex resentment and pent-up emotions regarding their familial situation. Rocky often involves Freckle in the Lackadaisy's affairs, sometimes against the latter's will (though he still cares for him greatly).

In spite of his apparent lack of self-awareness, Rocky is quite intelligent and boasts multiple talents, the most prominent being playing his treasured violin, which he excels at and even spontaneously crafts rhymes while playing. The high skill is what caused him to be involved with the Lackadaisy speakeasy in the first place, as his first job at the speakeasy was playing in Zib's band. Despite his chaotic nature, Rocky has an intense urge to please the people that he respects.
