Personality[]
Harry Clown is goofy, often demonstrating childish behavior, including jumping around a room together with Marinette. He is caring and understanding, as proven by his attempt to help Marinette get Adrien to laugh. He is also very sensitive, being deeply affected when Bob Roth tore his drawings, and he doubts himself when he fails to do something. Harry dreams of creating a serious superhero movie to help people feel more emotions than just laughter.
As Psycomedian, he wanted to wipe the smiles off everyone's faces and show everyone that he could make them feel different emotions.
Abilities[]
As a civilian[]
Since Harry Clown is a famous comedian, it can be assumed that he is an excellent candidate when it comes to performing comedic shows, despite his old age. Seeing that he created the sketches for his movie project, he appears to like drawing.
As Psycomedian[]
By squeaking his clown nose, Psycomedian could force people to feel the emotion displayed on his mask, which he could change at will. A sign of this is when their eyes briefly glow red. However, it only worked when they looked directly at him. His fanny pack could also produce extra clown noses should the one he was using be removed. He didn't have to necessarily squeak his nose when looking at someone, as in the case of Ladybug when his clown nose was stolen, he only had to look at her with the mask to set it in than squeak his nose to put into effect.
Relationships[]
Friends[]
Gabriel Agreste[]
Harry knew Gabriel ("Gabi") for a long time. He calls him his "good friend" and is not intimidated by Gabriel's coldness. The latter does not take Harry seriously, but he allows Harry to visit the mansion, which few people may visit.
