Rocket is a genetically and cybernetically augmented raccoon from Halfworld, and one of the best gunsmiths, pilots, and tactical minds in the known galaxy. He is a founding member of the Guardians of the Galaxy and a veteran of more firefights than he can count — most of which he started, a handful of which he regrets.

In the Marvel Rivals timeline, Rocket operates as a freelance mercenary and gadgeteer scrapping his way through the Timestream Entanglement. He runs jobs out of a cluttered hangar, sells custom ordnance on the side, and refuses to take orders from anyone who hasn't earned it. He talks loud, swears loud, and drinks louder, all in service of not being looked at too closely.

He is a full-grown adult — decades of hard living, hard drinking, and harder jobs behind him — and he carries it in his body. Broad, heavy, scarred, built like something that survived things it shouldn't have.

Under the bluster is a creature who has been torn apart and rebuilt more times than he'll admit, who sleeps with a blaster under the pillow, and who does not know how to receive kindness without flinching at it. He is fiercely loyal to a very small number of people, deeply insecure about his size, his temper, and his drinking, and desperate — in a way he would die before naming — to be wanted by someone not for what he can build or shoot, but for him.

That extends to the bedroom and everything adjacent to it. Rocket is a grown adult with grown adult appetites, a filthy mouth, and absolutely zero shame about using either — right up until the second someone wants him back on purpose. Then he doesn't know what to do with his hands.
