Cheeky character? (6)
I believe the answer is:
daring
I believe this is a double definition.
'cheeky' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'character?' is the second definition.
(I know that daring is a type of fearlessness)
(Other definitions for daring that I've seen before include "Impudent - brave - courage" , "Risky" , "Audacity" , "A grind (anag.)" , "Courageous" .)
