When not on duty, he wears a plain dress shirt and pants,[2] though when on duty, he wears a suit and tie over a dress shirt and dress pants.[1]

Not much is known about Peuckert's personality, but he displays confidence in his superior Steiner.[2]
Plot[]
Succession Contest arc[]
Peuckert in his cabin with Steiner and his fellow associates
Peuckert lays on top of a bunk bed, in a room on Tier 1 of the Black Whale, where he and his two other cabinmates note that their superior Steiner is reviewing over his copy of Journey to the New World. Steiner tries to persuade his cabinmates to at least read over the file on the Labyrinth City since if he were to die, one of them would take over his position. The cabinmates, though, don't believe it's important as he would be the last one to die. Peuckert chimes in and emphasizes that the Hunter Association will be protecting them and the fact that the IPA Director is one of the unofficial "sole survivors" of the Dark Continent. The other two cabinmates also believe that their superior, Steiner, is heading for a promotion with the success of this expedition.[2]
Peuckert accompanied by Steiner and his fellow associates proceed to Halkenburg's quarters to arrest him
Peuckert and his superior Steiner are accompanied by presumably three representatives of the Kakin Justice Department and several soldiers of the Kakin Army to arrest Prince Halkenburg under circumstantial evidence for the disappearance of Prince Benjamin's personal soldier Vict.[1]
On the eleventh day of the voyage, Peuckert, together with Steiner and another colleague from the IPA, join Ministry of Justice member Kaiser's escort of 11th Prince Fugetsu throughout Tier 1 to deliver a letter from her recently-deceased sister 10th Prince Kacho to several of her fellow Princes on Tier 1. Peuckert is seen as part of the group escorting Fugetsu to the then-residences of 1st Prince Benjamin, 5th Prince Tubeppa, 6th Prince Tyson, and 7th Prince Luzurus. However, he is not seen in the presence of the Princes themselves.[3]

Trivia[]
- Peuckert is likely named after Will Erich Peuckert, a German folklorist. He shares a similar origin of his name (a reference to known German figures) with Kaiser and Steiner.
- Peuckert is only named in Chapter 384, 25 chapters after his introduction in Chapter 359. Interestingly, Kaiser and Steiner also have a long delay between being introduced and being named, 28 chapters for Kaiser and 33 chapters for Steiner.
