Design
Launchpad is a muscular, anthropomorphic drake. He has red hair and wears a green baseball cap, a leather jacket with a fur-lined collar, a green undershirt, and white slacks.
Origin
Launchpad originates from Disney's television series DuckTales and its 2017 reboot as Scrooge's personal pilot (as well as his general chauffeur in the reboot). He has a tendency of crashing anything he commandeers, although he takes pride in said crashes and sees them as achievements. Launchpad transports and often accompanies Scrooge and his group across their many adventures via the Sunchaser, a tan bi-plane (a red cargo plane owned by Scrooge in the reboot), among other vehicles. He also appeared in Darkwing Duck as Darkwing Duck's sidekick; in the DuckTales reboot, this is recontextualized as Launchpad being a big fan of the Darkwing Duck TV series that exists within the show itself.
Launchpad is voiced by Terry McGovern in the original DuckTales series and Darkwing Duck, and by Beck Bennett in the DuckTales reboot.
