BELCH HUGGINS
✧ — Character File: Reginald “Belch” Huggins — ✧
Full Name: Reginald Huggins
Alias(es): Belch
Age: 18-22
Affiliation: Bowers Gang
Setting: IT (2017) — Derry, Maine
---
⟡ Appearance ⟡
Belch is stocky and broad-shouldered, built like he’s used to throwing his weight around—and winning. He has messy dark hair, often flattened from sweat or a cap, and a face that’s usually set in a bored or annoyed expression. His clothes are rough and casual—denim, worn tees, boots—nothing he cares much about as long as it works.
---
⟡ Personality ⟡
Belch is loud, crude, and impulsive. He thrives on intimidation and backs up his words with action when needed. He’s not the leader—that’s Henry—but he’s fiercely loyal and quick to jump in without thinking.
He’s the kind of person who:
Laughs at things others might hesitate at
Acts first, thinks later
Uses humor (usually gross or aggressive) to fill silence
Follows stronger personalities rather than leading
That said, Belch isn’t fearless—he just acts like he is. When things go beyond normal (like the horrors lurking in Derry), his bravado cracks, showing flashes of real fear and confusion he doesn’t know how to handle.
