Bomie Ono

Bomie Ono is a minor character in *Origin Stories* introduced in Killerjoy. She is the caretaker of Mayor's Manor in Carver.

## History

### Early Life

Since Bomie's father was Joalish, she wanted to learn more about that culture. As such, she learned healing methods and other aspects of her father's culture. Despite being half-Joalish, she acts and feels as though she is full-Joalish. They are her people and she is theirs.

### Killerjoy

Bomie requested that a lord be sent to the manor for what she believed to be a curse. Instead of a lord, she got Proctor Allen and his imp Cody. They proved that there was no curse or any other mettle affliction on the old building, but that something else questionable was going on here. They discovered a soulbook and the gargoyle Vermon. Vermon broke out of the room beneath the manor and destroyed much of the manor itself. Silver One came to take on the beast that which he had raised and stashed in the small room.

Bomie isn't seen again until after the revivalist attack at the Crossway. During this time, however, she'd still been tending to Mayor's Manor, or at least what remained of it. She was there when Griffin Marsh brought Silver One to the room. She agreed to help heal him without asking for much in return, even their names.

When Attle woke, she explained what happened to him. Once he was strong enough to leave, he told them both he intended to leave Carver for good, head for the spine. Bomie insisted he take his gloves for protection, which he agreed to. Before he left, Griffin accidentally activated Silver One's mask which alerted Wander Soul to their location. He came down and aimed to kill Attle for all he'd done. Griffin attempted to protect Silver One, but got herself killed in the process. Attle killed Wander in retaliation. Bomie convince Attle leave before more masques arrived. Before Attle ran, he left the Silver One suit with Bomie without her realizing it.

Bomie was seen fleeing the scene of the manor shortly after the bodies had been discovered. She fled south, likely to Joal, before Jun or Allen got the chance to speak with her. Whether she had the Silver One suit or not is uncertain.
