**Personality**

Cleatus is known for his stereotypical southern American characteristics. With a strong dislike for democrats, Mexicans and forms of government authority Cleatus is a traditional right wing redneck. Never really scared of anything, his mood is mostly swinging between indifferent and dominant or laughing about something inappropriate. He is mostly the first band member to take a step in a dangerous or daring situation, and therefore is most of the time busy with something illegal. He is also known to be an energetic guitar player and hilarious gamer with a good sense of black humor in general. His talent for dominance and taking initiative could have made him a strong leader of the group, but Cleatus mostly seems concerned with what is on his own mind for the next minute, or two.
