Personality[]
Scott is a brave, self-confident, cocky, independent, headstrong, brave, adventurous Retro 80s-90s stereotypical young man with the strongest, but dark heart of the light. He always brings justice like his biological father, David Jones, but also he likes to share with his older surrogate/adoptive brother, Luke Fernandez’s supernatural hunting adventure when he, Ryan, and Chelsea first met him due to his parents' divorce. Furthermore, Scott is always known as a zero-to-hero whenever he solves cases and brings killers and criminals to justice. Despite being hereditary from his late great-grandfather, Scott was able to hide his secret from those who strive to get to know about his secret.
Scott was once a very average genius and always inventing and crafting weapons. When he was 4 he used to invent his school project for the first time because of his intelligence after he was born. He always did his homework assignments rather than taking a break, eventually earning a good grade while learning from his mistakes. When he met his great-grandfather during his trip to Korea, Scott was granted astrology as a result of mistreating and vandalizing his heirloom astrolabe the old lady has, and tried to return it to him but to no avail. Due to his bad deeds toward his great-grandfather, Scott spends his entire life studying and researching alchemy while learning about magic and science combined. In this case, he often uses his powers to help and aid his family and friends during his adventures or solve their problems which leads to being successfully solved. As a teenager and later adult, Scott was able to master alchemy to build weapons and traps for the needs of the emergency.
Scott used to learn to draw, sketch, and color images despite his perfectionism over his artistic skills. His favorite color is red which refers to his father's former alter ego, Red Masque. Oddly so, Scott was fascinated with supernatural beings, including monsters, mythical creatures, aliens, urban legends, and mythology just like Ryan after they met supernatural hunters for the first time. Scott often explores the haunted places where the supernatural occurs as bizarre cases and fights the force of evil. Also, Scott was a New York-accented American and came from a family of Christians his mother Charlotte used to be. Being employed in the Police Force at age 28, Scott is shown that he was also serving and protecting the city where he lived. He was not into drugs and alcohol and having a hard time dealing with the stress of his life but he always brought justice by catching the killers while investigating the cases.
When he first found an heirloom astrolabe from his great-grandfather, Scott had been living in his secret astral hideout for the past few years since his parents’ divorce. He often let someone else live in his hideout including Ryan and Chelsea. During his time in the astral hideout, Scott is mentored by his great-grandfather to learn his astrology traditions in case the Chinese New Year takes place so he uses his skills to predict and advise those for a better future. However, he often causes problems for his family and friends, even the hunters including Oscar and Annika because his astrology skills didn't improve. As an adult, he was also known to predict and advise those for a better future and evenutally the better future is fulfilled. Scott uses a special astral meditation called Predicting Mediation from his great-grandfather. When he mediates, Scott opens his eyes, indicating they glow light blue as he sees a vision of his memories that took place which leads to help him with a solution to solve and deal with danger threatening to him and those he cares for.
At the age of four, Scott loved to play in playgrounds amusement park, and waterparks with his family. He also loves Mr Sparkles Cartoons when he owns some of several merchandises of Mr. Sparkles. When he was two, he used to spend time with his father's dog, Astrid, a shih tzu that belonged to an old lady Margaret Littlewood. He loves candies including butterscotch hence his nickname is Scott and is afraid of going to the dentist often whenever he has cavity. Scott was diagnosed with several mental disabilities (such as ADHD and Autism Spectrum, or Asperger Syndrome). He always rarely speaks or communicates with his family or friends due to nonverbal communication.
When he was six to eight, Scott was a nostalgia enthusiast with an awesome taste for the 80s-90s culture awesome taste for the 80s-90s vintage. As a video game champion, he often played classic arcade games of his favorite at the arcade station after school, and instead of going home alone but now plays new modern video arcades including the Weirder Stuff. Despite being a video game champion as he always wins, Scott humbly loses to let someone else win He used to love to watch nostalgic films via VHS tape played within a VHS player curiously but also loves action movies including Transmutators. He likes skateboarding, bike riding, and rollerskating but often ditches the school. He loves to listen to 80s-90s music during summer. Scott likes to visit drive-in theatres, malls, music shops, and roller rinks since he stole a credit card from his father. Scott is a toy collector when he buys nostalgic toys from the 80s-90s but also loves to collect vintage comic books and gadgets He is also the biggest fan of Captain Simple and often attends Grimcon with adult supervision. Scott still often sneaked out whenever his parents were away but Luke was always still with him, treated as a big brother he never had.
As a teenager, Scott still often sneaked out whenever his parents were away but instead, he only accompanied his little sister Rachel. He likes shooting pools, reading manga, watching paranormal TV shows, and playing video games but also focuses on studying for better grades at high school. He also does martial arts and he can do self-defense to protect himself and anyone else against the enemies he faces. He is often underestimated by Jack Archer and Amy Young for his recklessness. Still using his astrological power from his grandfather, Scott was able to travel in time to solve crimes, even unsolved cases while disguising himself in different timelines. He often occasionally comes to visit his grandparents, uncles, uncle/aunt, and cousin (Jones' family) for occasional holidays with his siblings to spend time with them.
As an adult, his attitude and personality changed, when he became Rocket Hood. He was an aspiring criminal mastermind and intergalactic outlaw when he was two years ago. Unlike Luke, Scott is very hotheaded, tough, impulsive, fierce, and mature. He was into smoking, drugs, and alcoholic beverages, liked fast cars, motorcycles, and spaceships, and even flirted with younger girls in their twenties. He often commits ongoing crimes and murders anyone in his way despite being one of the Supernova Corp. His activities are such as robbery, drug selling, kidnapping, and taking anyone else hostage while hiding his identity from some law enforcement. Scott is aloof, rude, arrogant, and ruthless when he never disrespects the suspects which gets him on his nerves. Scott also dislikes loud tantrum-throwing children, babies, and toddlers. However, still attains his late great-grandfather's good influence, just like his father, Scott is loyal, remorseful, kind, humble, gentle, and caring, even if he helps and protects those those he cares about in need while respecting them.
