Clifton Crawford
From Space Quest Omnipedia
Clifton Clifford Cliff Crawford, known as "Cliffy" (because of his hobby of attempting to climb nearly vertical mountains) is the former chief (and only) engineer of the SCS Eureka, serving under Roger Wilco. He is a Scottyoid, and could pass as a human on a million worlds if it was not for his unfortunate accent.[1] He transferred to the SCS Goliath for a short time during the Pukoid incident. He is rather out of shape, and refuses to wear a standard StarCon Uniform, yet he is extremely loyal to his friends and his ship. He is well-organized and creative in the way he solves problems. He has experience in cybernetics and robotics, as demonstrated by his successful reconstruction of WD40 as a peaceful member of Roger's crew.
Cliffy was involved in an incident in the Space Bar, in which the Eureka was referred to as a garbage scow, and a fight broke out. Somehow during this event, space monkeys were released. The authorities are still investigating.
After his only official appearance in Space Quest 5, Cliffy has appeared in a storyarc at the WSSQUID comics, in strips #173-179.
Cliffy is based on the Star Trek character Montgomery "Scotty" Scott.
