## Bio

### Appearance

Bao is a young girl with dullish green eyes and thick dullish green hair bunched in pigtails held with brown bands, and after she gets Stage 3, her hair is sparkly and slightly longer, but has no fade. Her Harmony Mark is a black spade next to a cyclone of green leaves. As a civilian, her outfit is currently unknown.

As a Puella Magi, her hair and eyes remain unchanged. From what can be briefly seen of her canon counterpart's outfit, it is at least known that she has a green, somewhat low-neckline dress with long white sleeves, an overlapping jagged neckline, a light gold waistband with swirls on it, and a detached white frilly collar around her neck that has an orange bow on it. Her collar slightly obscures her Power Necklace. On her head is some sort of yellow headpiece that appears to wrap around the back of her head, with two adornments hanging from it. Since her outfit was only partially shown, the missing details are currently unknown. She has no wings, and her Harmony Gem (shaped like a leaf) is located on the left side of her upper chest while her Elemaximum Gauge is on a currently unknown location. She has no wings.

In her Stage 5 form, it is known that her outfit resembles this outfit of Momona's in *Lady Jewelpet*, though any alterations are currently unknown.

It is unknown what her outfit looks like after Stage 3.

### Personality

Bao is usually shy and sweet, and sometimes is quite anxious (due to the look of utter horror on her canon counterpart's face). It is also confirmed that her Element of Harmony is Empathy.

### Relationships

* **Toph Furi-Beifong**: Her childhood friend from the Earth Kingdom. They are quite close, and often hang out together, even though she is occasionally annoyed by Toph's snarky attitude. She is also the only one who completely understands her and doesn't forget that she's blind.

### Etymology

Bao's name is a name of Chinese origin out-of-universe, so in Japanese it is written in hiragana so it is not messed up, but thus it has no special meaning. Many inhabitants of the Avaterra region also have similar Chinese-origin names written in hiragana.

## Items

* Harmony Gem (stored in her phone when not in use)
* Power Necklace

## Skills

As a magical girl, Bao possesses enhanced physical abilities such as speed, strength, agility, and invulnerability to physical damage. While it is currently unknown how her powers work in battle, it is known that her powers revolve around plants, but especially leaves. Her magic aura is cool spring green in color.

## Puella Magi

Bao is the Warrior of Evergreen Trees. She is a Plant Elemental who represents the Element of Empathy, and her theme color is green. Her only known weapons so far are a castanet similar to Cure Lemonade's Lemonade Castanet, but green, a crossbow, and a mallet.

### Attacks

* **Spade Greenery**: Bao's first purification finisher. It borrows power from an unknown Dream Pixie, and to perform it, she needs her castanet.
* **Earth Cage**: One of her non-damaging sub-attacks used to trap the enemy.

## Trivia

*For this character's tropes, see here.*
* Bao is based on the green-haired girl that Ultimate Madoka rescues in the final episode of *Puella Magi Madoka Magica*. Despite this, she is *not* the first rescue in the series finale, as it is confirmed that Elizabeth takes her place as the first rescue.
* It is confirmed that she and Toph are childhood friends. When the latter earned her Harmony Mark, Bao was also the one to tell her what it was since she witnessed it.
* Though her Harmony Mark is currently unknown, it *is* confirmed that the upside-down spade seen on her canon counterpart's Soul Gem is part of her Harmony Mark.
* Her Feathelly being nicknamed Mossy is confirmed to be a Shout-Out to the series *Fish Turned Girl Pretty Cure!*.
* As a witch, the scenery of her barrier and the way she is boredly swinging on a swing to pass the time (and her pose on the swing) resembles a G-rated version of the famous painting *The Swing*. Her familiars also resemble chibified butlers.
* During production, she was originally going to be the only Magi of the team without wings. However, it was later confirmed that *none* of the BaC Magis have wings when transformed.
