Character Information

Name: Bo Dennis
Canon: Lost Girl
Canon Point: Post-series
Age: Assumed to be 50ish, but appears to be in her late 20s
History: http://lostgirl.wikia.com/wiki/Bo

Personality: First and foremost, Bo has a very strong sense of justice. She may have spent some of her younger years running and avoiding getting too close to people, but she can’t stand injustice happening, and she doesn’t like people doing terrible things and getting away with it. Time and time again in the course of her canon, she was shown doing whatever she could to help people and try ensure justice was done. This no doubt stemmed from her upbringing in a staunchly Christian household and giving her a very solid moral grounding. Though she also suffered verbal and religious conservative abuse from her adoptive parents after her powers manifested. As a result, Bo believed she was evil and she spent years hating herself. Her mother's words echoed in her head on a daily basis for years. Bo has fought a long and difficult battle with herself and having help from her friends along the way, but she has finally embraced herself as not only being Fae, but also being a Succubus. She owns her powers and who she has become. She has long since left her religious upbringing behind, and she is comfortable in her own skin. She is sexy, alluring, and is not afraid to use her looks or her power of seduction by touch to get what she wants. That said, she is not a slut, and she will quickly shoot down anyone who tries to claim she is one.

As much as Bo is a lover, she is also a fighter. She will not stop fighting until either whatever she’s fighting is defeated or she herself is dead. She will fight even harder if it’s to protect her friends. Going along with this, Bo can have a temper and be equally as fiery when arguing. Bo really hates it when people lie to her, so when she finds out they have been lying, she will tell them off and avoid them until she cools down enough to be civil with them again. While she isn't afraid of conflict, she doesn't like to be confronted by someone she's upset with until after she's had a chance to cool down.

There is also an ever present fear of herself, of the dark side that she inherited from her father. While she was finally able to gain control of it just in time to stop him, she still has an underlying fear that he could use their blood connection to pull her back under his control if he ever tries to return and take over the world. It was also because of this that when her half-sister was born, she took precautions to not let Hades do to her what he had done to Bo. Her father is a constant thought in the back of her mind. While she did defeat him, it was not the "final" type of defeat. She knew he would eventually come back and try again, and she's bound and determined to be there to stop him, which began with ensuring her half-sister was raised right, and raised knowing who and what she was, unlike Bo. Knowing that some day her father will return, Bo and her friends have begun to lay plans for this eventuality. She will ensure that next time, they are ready for Hades.

Having a large heart, Bo cares very deeply and very passionately for her loved ones. As such, she can also be hurt very easily. She is not made of stone, and her heart can be easily broken. When her heart gets broken, she has a tendency to brood and hide away, trying to pretend the outside world doesn’t exist while she’s in her period of mourning, as it were. Though sometimes she also goes into intense denial, such as when she and Lauren broke up, she kept claiming it was only a break for a while, until she finally accepted it was a break up. Likewise, she also trusts those around her, and when they break that trust, it hurts her very deeply. However, her trust is one that can be rebuilt when people break it. She will give people another chance, but she does know that there are people who should never be trusted or given more chances.

Bo also has a tendency to meddle in things that aren’t her business. She also didn’t care about playing by the Fae’s rules, which was why she never chose to join the Light or Dark and remained unaligned. Of course, it could be inferred that considering her mother was Light Fae and her father was Dark Fae, on a very technical level at least, Bo never chose a side because her genetics defaulted to neutral. Though this could also largely be due to the fact that Bo is intensely independent. She liked to go where she pleased and not be bound by the rules she saw as stifling that both sides of the Fae had to live by. Though while she tended to ignore, and proceed to eventually break, the rules of the Fae, Bo has her own rigid moral code she abides by. Such as she will never, ever kill for pleasure nor will she kill for fun. She will only take a life if she’s in battle and there is no way to avoid it. She will always fight for the little guy. She will be kind to everyone unless they prove she shouldn’t be kind to them. She listens to people, and she genuinely cares for them, even if she tries to pretend she doesn’t. Yet even with the independent streak she has, she has great loyalty to her friends, and she will never abandon them.

Abilities: Superhuman strength
Seduce, calm or manipulate people by touch
Feeds on chi (or life energy)
Heals by absorbing chi during sex (this includes bringing herself back to life so long as she still has brain activity)
Resuscitate people by transferring chi into them
Can see aura of sexual energy around people
Longevity (while she can be killed, she can live for millennia)
Superior hand-to-hand and weapons combat skills
If her blood comes into contact with someone’s open wound, they can become enthralled to her (this was used when she fought the Garuda)

Strengths: Hero. Kind. Conscience. Warrior. True.

Weaknesses: Too trusting. Dark side. Lustful. Angry. Hades’ weapon.

God/Shinki: God.

Why?: She spent her time in canon being, essentially, a shinki for her father. She defeated him, and thus I want to give her a different narrative in this game. She has grown, has come to be able to control her darker side, and is more confident in herself and who she is now that she knows exactly who and what she is. She is very much a leader in canon, and she paved a new path for Fae to take, as she never chose a side, Light or Dark, in canon and she was proved to be both Light and Dark. I think she would make an excellent goddess, having the skills necessary to make herself a leader. She lead battles against more than one seemingly insurmountable odds. She lead the fight against the Garuda and defeated it. She defeated her own father, Hades, in a one-on-one fight. She's grown into a very strong, powerful woman, and she'd fare better as a god than she would as a shinki. I want to build off of who she was at the end of her canon, and give her new challenges to confront as a god.

Top 3 Choices: Freyja - Norse goddess of love, sex, beauty, fertility, gold, war and death
Athena - Greek goddess of Wisdom and War
Iustitia - Roman goddess of Justice

God Type: Bo would aspire to be a just god. Unlike her father who had no care for who lived or died to create his own world, Bo cares greatly for people, even those she doesn’t know. She doesn’t have a care for rules if she feels they inhibit people or interfere with justice being done. Bo would also still meddle in things that didn’t concern her from time to time. Bo would take requests/prayers that have anything to do with needing to right a wrong or bring justice about. She would also very much take ones from those who are lost or confused about who they are. Bo herself was a lost girl until she found her family and found out who she was. She would not leave such requests for guidance and help alone.

Power: Ability to heal wounds of others through her touch
