=== Appearance ===
=== Appearance ===
Pocket is a slim, light-skinned person of presumably mixed Asian-White descent (based on their facial features and the appearance of their father Maximilian and ancestor Walter). They have brown eyes and short brunette hair with edges pointed upwards. They wear an expensive but ragged dark green jacket with 6 pockets, fingerless black gloves, an orange scarf with edges resembling skeleton hands, a white shirt, orange vest, black necktie, brown pants and black shoes. Their inconspicuous magic suitcase contains many frogs, including a large one that attaches to the [[ziplines]] by its tongue. Their weapon is a [[wikipedia:Nock_gun|Nock volley gun]], though it behaves as a shotgun.
