**Boochi Ray** is a major antagonist of the original *Talk About Random*, marking him the secondary antagonist of the series. However, near the series finale, he turns anti-villain. He is set to return in *Talk About Random EX*.

Boochi was Buizel’s rival because of a science fair he did not declare victorious and vowed revenge on Buizel. He no longer a seeker of vengeance and decided to switch sides, if he gets to learn properly.

## History

Born in 1986, Boochi became a child prodigy. In 1991, at the age of 5, Boochi created an invention to help his mother do chores for her. It was a success. However, Boochi's father wanted everything normal with no technology. He decided to destroy the invention and upsets Boochi. His mother and father argue for three days.

As 1992 rolled in, Boochi's parents divorced and he lives with his mother. In 1997, at the age of 11, Boochi's mother suddenly disappears after leaving work. Boochi raised himself and invent more creations daily. It all changes when he entered a science fair in 2002.

Boochi entered the science fair for an invention that was a fan with no blades. However, he lost to Buizel when he won for his scale model of Neopia and the volcanoes erupting. Boochi vowed revenge on Buizel for the science fair.

In 2005, Boochi saw a group of Hissis in the alleyway of Neopian Central. He thinks that he should capture all three of them but he was able to capture Crayne. In 2009, as Buizel enjoys the day at the beach, Boochi kidnaps his Petpet, Sora. Buizel spent years looking for his Petpet.

In 2015 to 2016, he continues to seek revenge on Buizel for the science fair until the time traveling invention he created a long time ago. After time traveling to the past to rewrite history in order to eliminate Buizel and the brothers, he becomes an anti-villain and decides to never try to destroy Buizel.

## Personality

Boochi is self-centered, greedy, and malicious. Since his parents' divorce, Boochi wants some attention before the 2002 science fair. During the science fair, Boochi was self-confident with his project; however, his true nature was revealed after losing the science fair. Boochi cares about himself and no one else. He plots everyday to destroy the brothers and try to reign over Neopia, with Payne and Crayne.

After kidnapping Crayne and Payne turning himself to the dark side, Boochi developes a relationship towards the Hissis and transformed them into bionic. In some cases, Boochi abuses their bionic abilities to eliminate anyone who stands in his way and interfere with his plans. But, in late 2016, Boochi eradicated both Payne and Crayne in attempts to destroy the brothers. Boochi does not care how other Neopians feel. Following the time traveling debacle, Boochi switched from villain to anti-villain. He shows some heroic characteristics until the very end.

Since 2002, Boochi holds a grudge on Buizel for 14 years. The memory of the science fair will not fade away from Boochi's mind because he has it glued in his head during that time period. Boochi thinks that he can outsmart Buizel but he overthinks it too much. In other cases, Boochi would give up on trying to eliminate Buizel.
