## Biography

### Personality

Bo takes his role as a crossing guard & hall monitor extremely seriously, and believes he is the one thing standing between the school and complete chaos and destruction, something he may be right about. He cares deeply about all people, and wants to protect them from going over the edge.

Bo finds making friends incredibly easy, and is very close to everyone on his football team, though he will not hesitate to correct any of them if he feels they’re being cruel. When he feels there is sufficient justice in the world, though, he’s chill to a fault, and very severe about being positive. Often, Bo forgets his own strength in his urge to clap a friend on the back or give somebody a hug, and personal space is a difficult concept for him to grasp.

### Appearance

Bo is big and stocky, and notably has the head of a bull, with dark brown fur and skin and a white spot on his head. He wears one gold earring, and a gold septum ring. His eyes are wide and dark, and appear to have no pupils at all, or else be entirely pupil—it’s difficult to tell which. His gaze can be unnerving, because his father taught him to make a point about looking people in the eye when he speaks to them, which can appear condescending if you’re shorter than he is, like most monsters.

### History

Bo was raised by two loving & attentive parents as the oldest of four children. After his father, a firefighter, was killed in the line of fire, his mother was inconsolable, and fell into a deep depression. Due to his mother’s inability to raise his younger siblings, Bo stepped up to the role. This was the catalyst for Bo’s complex around protecting other people, especially young children.

## Relationships

### Family

Bo grew up in a secular Muslim family, and though he does not practice Islam, he considers it an important part of who he is. He loves his mother dearly, and continues to hold her in high regard, despite her not being emotionally present for most of his life. He misses his father every day and on the anniversary of his father’s death, he frequently spends the day alone. As a response to this, his teammates try to keep him occupied throughout the day, to keep him from losing himself in grief. He has two younger brothers and a little sister, and, as the only one of them who grew up knowing their father, tries to tell them stories to make them remember him in a good light as well.

As a fleshman, Bo quickly befriended the rest of the football team, and now views them as an extension of his family.
