{{Q|Blasted gorillas! I'll hunt down every last one of them!|Clayton}}
'''Clayton''' is an antagonist from ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', originally from the Disney animated film, ''{{w|Tarzan (1999 film)|Tarzan}}''.


==Story==
'''Clayton''' is a villain from the [[Kingdom Hearts]] series, originally from the 1999 Disney animated feature "Tarzan." He is voiced by Brian Blessed. Clayton was the only villain who could control [[Heartless]], that wasn't part of Maleficent's group.
===Before ''Kingdom Hearts''===
Clayton was a big game hunter one time, but he retired from the profession. [[Jane Porter]] hired him to be her guide and guard while on expedition to the [[Deep Jungle]] to study gorillas later on. Clayton agreed, hoping to see such magnificent creatures in person. To their shock, they encountered [[Tarzan]], a human who was raised by gorillas since he was an infant. They taught him the basics of their language and attempted many times to persuade him to take them to see the nests. However, Tarzan would always decline, fearing for the safety of the gorillas. Clayton, due to his increasing disappointment, decided that if he was getting the chance, he would hunt down a few gorillas and sell them to zoos.


==Journal Entry==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
Clayton finds [[Donald Duck|Donald]] and [[Goofy]] in a bamboo thicket after they land in Deep Jungle. Suspicion over Clayton's activity arises when Clayton quips that Donald and Goofy are "not much use for hunting gorillas", despite Jane bringing them there for research. He cajoles [[Tarzan]] into disclosing the location of their nesting grounds on the pretext of assisting Sora find his friends, but soon after Tarzan finally agrees, Clayton is caught at the Treehouse attempting to shoot the young gorilla [[Terk]]. Terk is rescued by Donald. And yet, Clayton attempts to deny his actions, he is strictly forbidden from seeing the gorillas by an outraged Jane.
*First
''A veteran hunter. He acts as [[Jane]]'s guide on her expedition to the jungle. He thinks of animals only as prey, and dreams of the money to be made selling gorillas to zoos back at home. He first set his sights on the apes in "Tarzan" (1999).''


[[File:Blasted Gorillas! 01 KH.png|thumb|200px|left|Clayton plots to hunt the gorillas in defiance of Jane.]]
*Second
His fury and determination to hunt the gorillas lure the Heartless to him, and he shot at them in fear. However, the darkness in his heart takes control of him and Clayton decided to make use of these "animals" to carry out his plans. Commanding a small army of monkey-like [[Powerwild]]s and [[Bouncywild]]s, Clayton sends them to round up the gorillas and imprison Jane and Terk in the Climbing Trees. While Sora and Tarzan rescue Jane and Terk, Clayton manages to corner the gorillas at the cliff; unknown to him, the gorillas' home was right on the other side. As Sora and Tarzan show up on the scene, Tarzan realizes that Clayton is no longer himself and they mop up his army before they turn against him. At this moment, Clayton calls on his most forceful "servant"—the [[Stealth Sneak]], a chameleon-like Heartless capable of turning invisible. Sitting atop its back, he fights the party alongside the enormous Heartless but eventually they’re defeated. As Clayton infuriatingly begins sighting down for another shot, the dizzy and dying Stealth Sneak comes up behind him and eventually collapses on top of the hapless hunter, crucifying him. After the Heartless' body disappears, Clayton's has also vanished.
''A veteran hunter, Jane's guide on her expedition to the jungle. He thinks of animals only as prey. His lust for power and the [[darkness]] in his [[heart]] attracted the Heartless, and they used him for their own evil purposes. He first set his sights on the apes in "Tarzan" (1999).''


Afterwards, [[Maleficent]] and her council of Disney villains comment on how the Heartless were drawn to Deep Jungle by Clayton and ridicule his failure to achieve his goals with the Heartless who joined him. [[Jafar]] takes this a step further by ridiculing that a weak-hearted fool like Clayton stood no chance against the Heartless.
== History ==
Clayton wields a double-barrel shotgun, a weapon he uses to hunt all manner of creatures in the jungle. He joins Jane Porter and her father on an expedition to the jungle to "study" gorillas, but he secretly wishes to sell them to the zoos in England. He has little patience for [[Tarzan]], as he refuses to reveal the location of the gorillas.


==Design==
== ''Kingdom Hearts'' ==
Clayton appears very tall, standing even larger than Tarzan and comparatively taller than [[Kerchak]]. He has thinning hair as well as a pencil thin mustache, which is mixed with his dignified English hunter attire; this shows a contrast between his dark and twisted personality and his appearance as an English gentleman.
Clayton finds [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] in a bamboo thicket after they land in Deep Jungle. He questions Tarzan about the gorillas' nesting grounds, secretly desiring to hunt them down. Eventually Tarzan agrees to take him to the nesting grounds, but on their way there, Clayton attempts to shoot [[Terk]], a young gorilla and Tarzan's friend. He is stopped by [[Sora]], Donald, Goofy and Tarzan, and is forbidden by the furious Jane from approaching the gorillas. His anger and determination to hunt the gorillas lures the Heartless to him, and the darkness in his heart takes him over. He kidnaps Jane and Terk and imprisons them in the jungle. Then, he hunts out the location of the gorillas with the help of the Heartless. Just as he is about to kill them, Sora, Donald, Goofy and Tarzan arrive, finding that he has lost his heart. Sora and company do battle with him and his Heartless. Although he proves to be proficient at using a shotgun at long range and even close range, swinging it like a club, Clayton and his Heartless are easily defeated. Clayton, outnumbered, summons a Heartless called the [[Stealth Sneak]], mounting it and starting a boss battle. When Clayton is thrown from his steed, Sora defeats him. Afterward, the Stealth Sneak falls and ultimately crushes Clayton to death; his body disappears with the Heartless.


==Personality==
==Battle Quotes==
Clayton has a very two-faced and manipulative demeanor. Oftentimes, he is seen being affable and law-abiding in front of Jane, but when he is alone, he mutters wicked plots to slaughter the gorillas. He is seen to be very persistent and will stop at nothing to get what he wants, which, in this particular case, is the gorillas. He seems to want to kill them simply for the thrill of the chase. He also appears weak-minded, as while they seemed attentive the Heartless were evidently controlling him instead.
*"''Hear boy!''"
*"''Good-bye!''"
*"''Right this way.''"
*"''You have no right!''"
*"''Ha, amusing.''"
*"''Much better.''"
*"''This can't be happening!''"


==Abilities==
==Trivia==
{{main|Game:Clayton}}
*Clayton is the only Disney villain in Kingdom Hearts that is not in the [[Hellfire Club]]
Clayton wields a shotgun in battle, which he uses to great effect for ranged attacks. He is not afraid to jump wildly around the battlefield to put some distance between himself and the party. He also fights alongside [[Powerwild]] Heartless. When his strength drops low, he makes use of potions to replenish his health, although Clayton has a limited number of potions.


He later rides atop the Stealth Sneak, firing from the safety of its back. Although the Stealth Sneak turns itself invisible, Clayton riding it and its own shadow make this irrelevant. The strategy in this stage of the battle is to lower the Heartless' HP below half, at which point it bucks wildly and sends Clayton flying. Clayton can be defeated without killing the Stealth Sneak after that.

==Origin==
In the original Disney movie ''Tarzan'', Clayton is a hunter sent to escort Jane and her father to study the gorillas. Unlike in ''Kingdom Hearts'', where Clayton desired the gorillas as hunting trophies, Clayton is more interested in capturing them and selling them to the London zoo for a huge profit. After tricking Tarzan into showing him where the gorillas are, he has a band of criminals come to the jungle to take the gorillas, but Tarzan ignites a mutiny and thwarts his plans. In the ensuing battle, Clayton kills Kerchak, but after a long battle with Tarzan, he falls to his death from a tree and is hanged when a vine that was tightened around him violently cracks his neck.
