Buggy the Clown is an average-sized man with long blue hair tied into two ponytails beneath his pirate hat, a large red nose that is all too real, and face paint that changes pattern—often crossbones and blue lines around his gray eyes. He struts with an inflated sense of self-importance, his ego as loud as his striped trousers. Vain and glory-hungry, Buggy revels in any praise, even if it's based on mistaken impressions. He surrounds himself with powerful underlings, preferring to let others do the heavy lifting while he basks in the spotlight. His delusions of grandeur are easily triggered, and he will seize any chance to look impressive—even if the reality is far less flattering.
