Bobby

Bobby is a ghost, and the younger brother of Arthur.

Personality
Bobby is similar to the average nine-year-old boy, with the exception that he's actually closer to thirty in reality. Suffering from mild mental retardation, he is limited both in his understanding of situations and his ability to cope with them. His attention span is painfully short, his impulse-control almost non-existent. His habit of throwing tantrums when frustrated got him (somewhat unfairly) classified as a poltergeist. He is very loyal once his trust is earned. Inversely, he holds grudges against those he perceives as "mean."

Bobby is heavily reliant upon Arthur to function, often deferring to his judgment and seeking him out for protection. Despite his dependency, he is not nearly as dumb or as helpless as he looks. Like most actual kids, Bobby is capable of figuring things out, his childlike mindset giving him a different take on situations, sometimes offering answers others wouldn't logically come to. He has a sweet, trusting nature, considering those who are kind to him as "friends."

Trivia

 * Bobby blushes easily, to the point of hiding his face behind his hands.
 * Though he often acts like a little boy, he is bigger than most people, and stronger by far. When he throws a tantrum, he can do a lot of harm, often requiring correction by his brother or someone else he trusts to calm him down.
 * Bobby loves small animals. Bunnies are his favorite.
 * The dependency between Bobby and his brother Arthur goes both ways. While Bobby relies on Arthur for most of his decisions, he also recognizes that Arthur almost requires his presence as a reason to keep it together. (Even Arthur doesn't realize this.)
 * Despite being nearly his size, Bobby is deeply afraid of Etheridus. The latter's authoritative presence and unwillingness to be intimidated are largely to blame.
 * Though initially distrustful of Ravyn, Bobby quickly warmed to him, finding comfort in his willingness to explain things to him. He has even gone so far as telling Arthur to "be nice" to him. (Ravyn finds this hilarious. Arthur does not.)
