Character Summary
Wears a bucket on his head.
Personality
Just call him Buck. Buck is short for Bucketeer. Try not to call him Bucketeer when he isn't in costume; as he spends a great deal of time trying to keep his real identity a secret.
Buck Keteer is a nice guy. Bucketeer is also a nice guy. He isn't very good at acting, so he basically only has one simple personality, whether he is in costume, or in his normal clothing; much like superman.
Appearance
Buck Keteer looks like a regular guy. Nothing special about him. However, he has a nice enough face, when he shows it. He wears old jeans, a big belt, and sneakers. When not in costume, he wears his T-shirt inside out, to disguise the emblem on it.
When not in costume, he will never admit that he is the Bucketeer. If his arch enemies should discover his true identity, then he would be easy prey, while his bucket isn't protecting his head.
His costume includes a bucket on his head, an old dropcloth he uses for a cape... And his normal clothing. That's all.
Abilities and Weaknesses
He can take a lot of damage to the head, since he is wearing a bucket, however, he often hears many echo sounds, making it difficult to socialize in groups.
He wears a big belt to protect his bad back. Still, sometimes his back does go out, leaving him defenseless for usually only a short time.
He stuffs lots of rubberbands into his sneakers so he can jump high; very high. He often wonders if Paragon Plastics Inc., usings illigal chemicals in the rubber products they produce.
Background
He worked as a janitor for many years, cleaning up all the blood, guts, and toxic slop left behind after all the various battles the heroes and villians had. Working in such filth, can affect a person in many unknown health related ways. Buck blames his bad back on this. Still, his insurance refuses to admit it.
One day he figured out that the only differance with the heroes of the city, and normal citizens like himself, was a funny costume! So he poked holes in his cleaning bucket and placed it on his head, and the Bucketeer was born!!!
Trivia
Buck's favorite icecream is strayberry, but he likes buttered pecon, and peppermint chocolatechip also. It really depends on what his mood is like. However, he hardly ever eats icecream, because he wants to stay in shape; but once in a blue moon... I hope this is trivial enough for you.
