Description:[/color]
If you were to put Bao next to his brother Kratos, you would hardly be able to tell they were related. Bao has a more sleek and slender build rather than the bulk Kratos carries; he's also taller than him by a foot. His body is better built for speed rather than strength, but that isn't to say he is a little weakling. His fur is short and bristly rather than soft and bushy, though it is a little longer on his chest, neck, underbelly and tail. He is as dark as the night sky itself, blending into the darkness without the slightest problem. There are a few salt and pepper flecks of fur mixed in with the black, but one would only be able to tell upon closer inspection. His eyes are a dark golden hue, which he despises greatly because gold is just another version of yellow, which is a color he dislikes for one reason or another. Like his brother, Bao is really quite simple and plain looking, but you shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

Personality:[/color]
So many ways to describe Bao, but there are so few words. Despite being the God of Darkness, Bao is a rather pleasant character to be around. There is hardly a dull moment when he is present. He enjoys playing a good prank here and there when his mischievous side comes into action, and he's not afraid of getting into a little trouble every now and then but he knows not to take it too far. A good adventure is something he likes whether it be going on a simple walk off the main trail in a forest or going deep into a cave rumored to have a monstrous creature hidden inside. His imagination is vivid and colorful and his mind is full of creative thoughts he tends to share with others. There are times when he is a little loud and excitable, but he has the ability to tone it down when the time isn't right. While he may seem a little over the top some of the time, he can be quite serious and think things through like any other normal being.
Many wolves tend to underestimate Bao because he isn't like his brother Kratos and because he isn't as "reserved" like the other Gods and Goddesses. They also underestimate him because he is the God of Darkness, who is thought to be spiteful and evil, but Bao is far from it. He is not afraid of a challenge and would definitely not back down from one, even if he knows he's not going to win. He would rather try and lose than walk away like a coward. When it comes to giving it his all, he tries as best as he can to do so. He hates to let others down and will do whatever he can to keep someone that matters to him happy and healthy. He has no problem with growing close to another being, but when it comes to loving someone else, that's another story as he doesn't want to watch someone he loves pass on while he has to continue to live forever. Trust isn't something he just hands out to anyone and everyone, but he doesn't have issues with trusting someone unless he knows not to do so.
There is no hidden dark side to Bao; he is who he is. He has his ups and he has his downs just like anyone else. Even when things aren't going well for him, he's there for others who need someone to lean on. Once you befriend him, you've got a friend for life unless you do something to change that. He may be a God, but who's to say he can't be a little different instead of being like the rest?

Powers:[/color]
Darkness Falls - As the name states, darkness falls over an entire area for an unspeakable amount of time. The darkness is impenetrable and hard to escape from. It is impossible to see through and while the darkness itself cannot kill or injure anyone, things that go bump in the night can. It can, however, cause others to hallucinate and drive them mad with images and voices that aren't really there the longer the darkness lasts. When used to its full extent, this power can be extremely dangerous though it uses a considerable amount of Bao's energy. The only thing able to break the darkness are powers of light, as those are good powers that can control the darkness.
Shadow Fiends - With this power, Bao's can create frightful looking shadows that come to life and do his bidding. They are able to manipulate and take control of another living things body and do unspeakable things that can, when allowed to, result in death. This power is strongest and best used when night has fallen because of the cover of darkness, but the power can be dangerous when used incorrectly. This power is only used when needed, and like his previous power, light powers are able to take control and stop him from using it.
Other - Being the God of Darkness, Bao's has control over anything that has to do with the darkness and shadows. He is capable of doing anything with it if he sets his mind to it, whether it be something horrific and deadly or something harmless and playful. Creating shadows, turning day into night, disappearing into the darkness, and having the darkness do his bidding are just a few mere things he can do. There are many things he can do that he has yet to discover, but his powers will never be used as a weapon unless utterly needed to.
Weaknesses:[/color]
Anything that can overcome the darkness, specifically those who hold light powers. With light, his powers of darkness are considerably useless, if not useless all together.
Other Information:[/color]
