Clive Clayton

Clive Clayton was born on January 9th, 1997 and was an Agent of A.C.E. Prior to his time with the Agents, he was working in a street gang in order to raise money to try and afford surgery for his ailing mother. He was in a relationship with Miku Katana until he was murdered by the Devine.

Clive was a part of a street gang when he was 19 as he needed money to try to afford surgery to save his mother. The street gang got on the radar of the Agents of A.C.E, when Clive realised he couldn’t live a life of crime. After saving Kieron Hawk and turning on his gang, Kieron decided to train Clive and made it so his mother could afford the surgery. He was officially recruited as Agent Grey in 2016, during the fight against the Third Concord. He later fought against the Devine in his presidency after A.C.E was disbanded, although was not present in the final battle against the Devine due to being injured by Chal.

Shortly after this, an evil parallel version of Kieron tried to invade Clive’s dimension. During this time, the evil Kieron corrupted Clive and turned him evil. Clive killed the evil Kieron and was stopped by Richmond Clay, who trapped them both in the dimension that the evil Kieron originated from. Here, the corruption wore off and he fought alongside Richmond as the two tried to find a way back home. After killing the Empress Alex, the dimension began to collapse in on itself due to extreme Vorpal usage. The two were then saved and sent home by Vorpal Frog, who also saved many inhabitants of the falling dimension. When they were home, the pair helped in defeating aquatic invaders. It was at this time that Keira Hawk was born, so Kieron and Alex Hawk stepped down and gave the organisation to Richmond.

During Richmonds tenure, Clive fought against the Darkening Mind and helped in defeating him. When Richmond was injured by the Mob Dogs, Clive recruited the criminal Miku Katana to help him fight a newly emerged criminal mastermind. He later assisted in the defeat of the Mob Dogs.

During Gentleman Beast’s mass breakout and forming of the League of Former Adversaries, Miku Katana was arrested by the Agents. During her time in A.C.E custody, Clive asked her to train him in melee combat. Due to taking a liking to him, she accepted and the two bonded. Despite this, she still betrayed Clive and had him captured by Beast. Her time with him and the Agents, however, caused her to change her mind as she freed Clive and served alongside them, defeating Beast.

Clive and Katana continued to bond when fighting the Murder of Crows, as he comforted her when she lost her hand. The two fought alongside each other also in the invasion of the revived Chairman and his Third Concord. Clive also fought against the Electronaughts and Mr Eams, but was separated from Katana on multiple occasions. It was during this time when the pair acknowledged that they had feelings for one another.

Eleven years after fighting Eams, Clive temporarily fought against the revived Devine, although was murdered by him. In his dying moments, he blew up the base of operations of the Devine. Katana was distraught by this, as were the other dimensions. After the merger of the two dimensions, Richmond and Alice’s son was named Clive in tribute to him.

Five years after his death, a doppelgänger emerged, named The Shadow, who became a threat to Melanie Asher's iteration of the Agents of A.C.E.
