Do I look like an "average guy" to you?

Cliff often works with his partner-in-crime, Mirage Koas and is incredibly strong, with stamina that far outpaces that of Earthlings.

Story[]
Cliff meeting Fayt at Norton's Hideout.
Quark, an organization originally founded and led by Cliff until he gives the post to Maria Traydor, is considered a terrorist organization by the Federation, though Cliff's goals are not the destruction of the Federation, but rather the strengthening of independent planets and weakening the Federation's centralization of control. The Klaus system is a major sympathizer with Quark.
Cliff tracks down Fayt Leingod on Vanguard III at Maria's behest, knowing considerably more of Fayt's true nature than Fayt himself. Cliff is trying to deliver Fayt away from the Federation which would seek to use him in the future as a military weapon and enlist him into Quark's ranks instead. Unfortunately, Cliff's planned escape goes awry, after having to aid Fayt against Norton on Vanguard III and later crash-landing in the capital of Airyglyph on the underdeveloped planet Elicoor II. After being set free by Aquarian agent Nel Zelpher, he guards and guides Fayt about, trying to protect him. After Maria comes to Elicoor II, Cliff has a more minor role, aiding the party against both the Vendeeni and the Executioners.

I got no problem with dragons. No problem at all.
― Cliff's confidence
Cliff appears as a brash, brawn-oriented man, but is also very clever and possesses a strong knowledge of military tactics and politics and is quite amicable. He considers himself Fayt's protector and also his guide for most of the story, knowing more than he lets on.
Gameplay[]
In Star Ocean: Till the End of Time, Cliff equips gauntlets, and his special attacks consist mostly of close-range moves with multiple hits, with high probabilities of taking down enemies. His Attack power is higher than most party members and is his HP, but has low MP, making him an easy target for MP-draining attacks.
He made a playable appearance in Star Ocean: Anamnesis, and had two variants: "Cliff" (Attacker), and "Groom Cliff" (Defender), who both employed knuckles as their weapon of choice.

Trivia[]
- In a conversation in a cathedral with Fayt, Cliff states he is an atheist.
- As someone bearing a "modern" education, he is also capable of being an engineer in a pinch, as both he and Fayt have the advantage of several hundred years of progress over the inhabitants of Elicoor II.
- Cliff's fourth outfit resembles Squall Leonhart's outfit from Final Fantasy VIII.
- Cliff's Japanese voice actor, Hiroki Touchi, has voiced characters in nearly every tri-Ace title, most notably that of the mercenary Arngrim in the Valkyrie Profile series.
- During Maria's flashback when her power awakened, moments before she orders the quantum torpedoes to fire, there is a rather unique find. When it zooms to Marietta, one can see someone sitting in the seat next to Marietta. The person is the same design as Cliff's second player costume (dubbed "Doppelganger Cliff" by fans).
