Profile
Origin
Bugaboo is an alternate name for the Bogeyman, an English word that refers to an imaginary creature used to frighten children into having good behavior or being more obedient. Variations of the same concept can be found across Europe and European-influenced areas, such as the Sack Man in Latin American countries and El Coco in Spain and Portugal.
Design
Bugaboo appears as a squatting devil with small wings and a tail. It has black skin largely covered in dark red mummy wrap and has long, sharp nails on both its hands and feet. It wears an off-white loincloth and has a red mask with devil horns protruding from the top, large white eyes, and sharp teeth with particularly emphasized fangs. Behind the mask are triangular ears, resembling those of a goat.
Being a potential experiment made by Mithras, Bugaboo is only 75% genetic demon material, and it is implied that the remaining 25% is human.[1]
