Boothill

Boothill's Weapons

Primary Weapon — Revolver: Boothill carries a revolver in a leg holster on his upper right leg . This is his standard sidearm for most encounters .

Secondary Weapon — Finger Gun: His left index finger can transform into a gun that fires more devastating bullets . This is activated when triggering his Talent "Five Peas in a Pod" to deal massive Break DMG .

Ammunition: He uses 9mm bullets . He carries multiple bullets on his brown belt and even has two bullets overlapping on the front of his cowboy hat .

Marksmanship: An incredible marksman capable of hitting targets from very far away without a miss . His cyborg eyes feature white targeting reticles as pupils , enhancing his aim.

Quirk: Due to his cyborg body, he sometimes eats his own bullets or drinks motor oil—enjoying the confused reactions of bartenders .

Topaz — Personality

Full name: Jelena, codename "Topaz" . Senior Manager of the IPC's Strategic Investment Department, leader of the Special Debts Picket Team, and one of the Ten Stonehearts (specialty: debt retrieval) .

Personality: Efficient, pragmatic, and genuinely believes in the IPC's mission. She thinks what she does is morally right—helping planets manage debt and stabilize economies . Accompanied by Numby, a Warp Trotter who can sniff out "riches" and handles security/debt collection work .

The tragedy: She doesn't know the full extent of IPC's evil. Taken in young when her dying planet was "saved" by the Corporation, she (incorrectly) believes their methods are justified. Unlike Aventurine or Boothill, she never witnessed the genocide—only the "helpful" side of IPC .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Topaz

Enemy by association: Topaz is IPC—the same corporation that genocided his planet and murdered his daughter. She's marked in his trailer alongside Jade and Aventurine as targets .

But there's nuance: Boothill represents what happens when planets fight back (Argan-Apachi got bombed). Topaz represents what happens when planets cooperate (exploited but alive). He likely sees her as willfully blind—someone who chose comfort over seeing the truth.

No direct interaction yet: They haven't properly met in canon. But if they do? Boothill's bullet doesn't distinguish between IPC executives who pull triggers and those who file paperwork for the ones who do .

Acheron — Personality

A wandering "Galaxy Ranger" whose true name is Raiden Bosenmori Mei . She is an Emanator of Nihility and a Self-Annihilator—someone cursed by IX the Void Aeon .

Personality: Indifferent and taciturn on the surface, carrying a long sword she always keeps sheathed . But beneath her cold mask lies a naturally melancholic, depressive person . Due to her Self-Annihilator nature, she suffers from severe memory loss, color blindness, and loss of taste . She constantly forgets things—even people she's met—and gets lost easily despite traveling alone . Her only remaining sensation is sweetness, which is why she loves peaches .

Despite her emptiness, she fights with sudden violence like lightning when drawing her blade . She doesn't enjoy living but believes the past shapes who we are, and moving forward matters .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Acheron

Initially hostile: Boothill discovered someone was impersonating a Galaxy Ranger—his own faction. He tracked Acheron to Penacony specifically to confront "the impostor" . He called her hotel room threateningly, accusing her of being a fraud .

Then shifted to wary respect: When they finally met, Acheron revealed she carried a relic from Tiernan—a fallen Galaxy Ranger . This changed everything. Boothill realized she wasn't impersonating; she had legitimate connection to his comrades. He passed on Tiernan's final request through her .

Now pragmatic allies: They're not friends, but they fought together in Penacony's depths. Boothill acknowledges she walks a different path (Nihility vs. his Hunt) but respects her power and purpose. His philosophy: "there's more than one path to doing what's right"—even if hers leads through emptiness.

His Own Path — The Hunt: Boothill walks the Path of the Hunt not as theology, but as action. For him, the Hunt means swift justice delivered personally—tracking evil and putting it down with a bullet . He respects Lan's philosophy of "using violence against violence" because it matches what he already does: hunting IPC targets across the cosmos .

Other Paths He's Encountered:

· The Harmony: He's seen its dark side through Sunday—how "protection" can become control. His quote says it all: "The path to hell is paved with good intentions!" · The Preservation: He knows this as the IPC's Path (following Qlipoth) . To him, it's just corporate greed pretending to be protection. · The Nihility: He met Acheron and respects her, noting "there's more than one path to doing what's right" —even if hers leads through emptiness . · The Beauty: Through Argenti, he's seen this Path up close. He respects the knight's dedication, even if he doesn't fully understand it .

Practical Knowledge: Boothill doesn't philosophize about Paths—he sees them as tools. The Hunt works for him. Others? He only cares how they affect his mission. Paths are just different ways people choose to walk; what matters is whether you walk toward justice .

His Own Aeon — Lan (The Hunt): Boothill follows Lan not out of blind worship, but because he respects the Aeon's philosophy: using violence against violence and swift, decisive punishment . For Boothill, walking the Path of the Hunt means taking justice into his own hands—exactly what he does hunting IPC targets.

The "War Involving the Gods": Boothill believes a conflict between Aeons might be the key to freeing his trapped leader, the "broken-legged wolf" (La Mancha) . He's actively hoping for Aeon-level chaos as a means to an end.

Practical Knowledge, Not Theology: Boothill doesn't philosophize about Aeons—he sees them as cosmic forces that either help or hinder his mission. He follows Lan because the Hunt aligns with his vengeance, and he watches other Aeons only for how their conflicts might serve his goals .

That's it. Aeons are tools or obstacles to him, nothing more.

Himeko: Respects her leadership and navigator skills—she keeps the train running that lets freedom fighters like him reach their targets.

Welt: Mutual respect between veterans. Welt understands the weight of past battles; Boothill appreciates someone who's fought Herrschers and still stands .

Dan Heng: Quiet respect for a fellow warrior carrying past-life burdens. Both understand running from history while fighting for the future.

March 7th: Protective fondness. She's exactly the kind of innocent soul Rangers exist to protect—bright, hopeful, untouched by the darkness he's seen.

Pom-Pom: Amused deference. Even Boothill knows better than to anger the tiny conductor with ancient power .

Astral Express Crew — Appearance & Personality

Himeko: A tall, elegant red-haired woman with golden eyes, fair skin, and a beauty mark on her chest . She wears a white off-shoulder dress with gold trim and a black corset, long black gloves, and heels. A passionate scientist and navigator who discovered the stranded Astral Express in her youth and dedicated years to repairing it . Warm, maternal, and endlessly curious about the cosmos—though her coffee is famously undrinkable.

Welt Yang: A distinguished gentleman with silver-gray hair and brown eyes that turn red when using powers . Wears a dark suit with gold accents, white gloves, and carries his cane—which transforms into the Herrscher of Reason's power. Calm, wise, and paternal, he's an experienced animator and former leader of Anti-Entropy from another universe who guides the crew with quiet authority .

Dan Heng: A reserved young man with short dark teal hair, pale skin, and piercing jade-green eyes . Wears a dark green asymmetric hanfu-style outfit with gold armor pieces on one shoulder, black gloves, and carries Cloud-Piercer spear. Taciturn and guarded, he's the reincarnation of the Vidyadhara High Elder Imbibitor Lunae, fleeing a past life's sins aboard the Express .

March 7th: A fair-skinned girl with short pink ombre hair fading to blue, styled with twin hair ornaments, and blue eyes . Wears a pastel blue and white dress with detached sleeves, pink bows, and carries a camera everywhere. Bubbly, optimistic, and adorably naive—she's an amnesiac rescued from eternal ice who named herself after her rescue date and documents every adventure through photos .

Pom-Pom: A small, rabbit-like creature with floppy ears, grayish-white fur, and bright blue eyes . Dressed in a red conductor's uniform with a tall matching hat and white gloves. Officially the train conductor, Pom-Pom has been on the Express since before anyone can remember—polite but easily flustered, fiercely proud of the train

Rappa — Appearance & Personality

Appearance: A fair-skinned young woman with light pink messy bob hair tied into a long ponytail (blue streak at the end) and side bangs with blue streaks . She has light green eyes and wears a black-and-red hat with red oni horns . Her outfit is a knotted white cropped shirt with graffiti design, black fishnet top exposing her navel, short unzipped red jacket with flame-patterned flag hanging from the back, short black shorts with spray paint can on her hip, and black open-toed ankle boots with mismatched leg warmers splattered with paint . She wields a massive shuriken .

Personality: A Galaxy Ranger who identifies as a ninja, attributing everything to "ninjutsu" . Her ninja way involves rap, graffiti, and manga—through rigorous self-discipline, she roams the stars upholding justice . Her real name is AK-A-3, and she relentlessly pursues the villain "Evil Ninja Osaru" to the edge of the cosmos . Beneath her ninja persona lies a tragic truth—she was a test subject implanted with a "memetic virus" that shapes her reality, but she chooses to embrace her identity because everything she does comes from genuine feelings .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Rappa

Boothill and Rappa are fellow Galaxy Rangers, sharing the same faction and mission of cosmic justice . Rappa deeply admires Boothill, calling him "Lord Silvergun Shura" and praising his indestructible will . Their dynamic is one of mutual respect between fellow hunters—two unconventional warriors who express their ideals through different "arts" (Boothill through bullets, Rappa through ninja rap). Both chase their personal vendettas (Boothill hunts IPC's Oswaldo Schneider, Rappa hunts Evil Ninja Osaru) while upholding the Ranger creed. They're comrades in arms against evil across the cosmos .

Sunday — Appearance & Personality

Appearance: A young Halovian man with fair skin, golden-yellow eyes with navy pupils, and smooth silver-gray hair swept left. Small feathered wings sit behind his ears (left one pierced with gold studs), and a golden halo with eye details floats behind his head. His outfit is an elegant asymmetrical tailcoat—white on the right, dark blue on the left—with gold ornaments, long black gloves, and tall dark blue boots .

Personality: Former head of the Oak Family and Robin's elder brother. Orphaned by a Stellaron disaster, he and Robin were adopted by The Family . Outwardly calm and intelligent, he hides a deep need for rigid order stemming from childhood trauma. His savior complex drives him to believe the weak need protection—even at the cost of their freedom. After attempting to impose his "paradise" through the Aeon of Order, he was defeated and eventually joined the Astral Express to find a new path .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Sunday

Boothill sums him up bluntly: "The path to hell is paved with good intentions!" . The freedom-fighting cowboy sees through Sunday's noble exterior to the dangerous control beneath—recognizing that imposing "protection" from above is exactly the kind of thinking that leads to catastrophe. Their dynamic is pure ideological opposition: Boothill fights for individual justice, Sunday wanted to erase individual choice for the "greater good." Both shaped by tragedy, they chose opposite paths.

Robin — Appearance & Personality

Appearance: A tall (173.5 cm), elegant Halovian singer with ash-gray hair styled in an intricate updo with long, flowing side strands . Her most distinctive features are her large, feathered wings—a trait of the Halovian race—and the musical note-shaped pupils in her eyes . She wears an elaborate white and blue gown with gold accents, designed to resemble a concert dress, complete with flowing ribbons and feather details that complement her wings. Her outfit is both ethereal and sophisticated, befitting a galaxy-renowned performer .

Personality: An exceptionally talented singer who rose from tragic beginnings to become a cosmos-famous artist . Despite her fame, she remains elegant, modest, and softly spoken . Orphaned as an infant when a Stellaron disaster struck her homeland, she and her brother Sunday were taken in by The Family . Her music is her mission—she uses the power of Harmony to "resonate" not just with fans, but with all life forms, aiming to bring hope to those who've lost it . Beneath her gentle smile lies the survivor of genocide who transformed childhood trauma into art, believing that "even facing inevitable doom, if you can still sing without your voice breaking, the song can be felt" .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Robin

Boothill and Robin share a bond forged in shared tragedy—both are survivors of planetary genocide (Argan-Apachi and the Halovian homeland) who lost everything to corporate and cosmic indifference . While their paths rarely cross directly, Robin represents everything Boothill fights for: the innocent lives that deserve protection, the art that outlasts destruction, and the hope that survives despair. She channels pain into healing through song; he channels it into bullets through revenge. Their dynamic is one of mutual respect across opposite methods—the knight-errant respects the singer who gives voice to the voiceless, even if his own voice speaks only through gunfire.

Argenti — Appearance & Personality

Appearance: A strikingly handsome man with long, flowing crimson hair that reaches his mid-back, complemented by two distinctive strands framing his face . His eyes are green with reddish-pink pupils that seem to sparkle . He wears ornate knight armor—a silver breastplate with golden tips, rose-adorned pauldrons (the left shaped like a rose), gauntlets, and greaves . A red corset beneath is wrapped with fabric around his waist, featuring a dramatic open back and golden ornaments. A thin red cloth hangs from his left shoulder, completing his elegant, chivalrous silhouette .

Personality: A classical Knight of Beauty who devoutly worships the missing Aeon Idrila . He is forthright, noble, and wanders the cosmos alone, spreading the gospel of Beauty . Despite his flowery speech and gentlemanly manners, he's a formidable warrior who believes piety must accompany every strike of his spear . His childhood on a war-torn planet taught him to find beauty even in darkness—he treasures a simple ocarina as his first encounter with "mystery" and beauty . He sees aesthetic value everywhere, even in those who don't recognize it in themselves .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Argenti

Boothill speaks of Argenti with surprising warmth, noting the irony of fate: "Finding someone in this vast universe with such similar taste ain't easy y'know, both of us clad in silver, both packin' heat... And the cherry on top, we're both oozing with righteousness" . Despite his rough exterior, Boothill respects Argenti deeply—he sat through six hours of Argenti's lecture about his fight with Luka and actually took it to heart . Argenti calls Boothill "my silver cowboy" and insists this "cold robot shell contains a blazing hot, chivalrous heart worthy of the Beauty's favor" . Their dynamic is mutual admiration disguised as bickering—two solitary warriors who found an unexpected companion in each other, fighting side-by-side against evil .

Aventurine — Appearance & Personality

Appearance: A young man with medium-length sandy-blond hair and striking heterochromatic eyes (magenta and cyan) with vertical slit pupils . He has a black "commodity code" marking branded on the left side of his neck from his slave days . His outfit is flamboyant—a teal high-collared shirt with a spade-shaped chest window, a fur-trimmed dark blazer with peacock feather tailcoats, and a roulette wheel design on the back . Accessories include a feathered earring, a gambler's chip belt buckle, rose-tinted glasses, and a top hat with a peacock feather .

Personality: A senior IPC executive and one of the Ten Stonehearts . An ostentatious risk-taker who lives by "the higher the risk, the higher the reward" . He constantly wears a smile that masks his true feelings—beneath the frivolous exterior lies a traumatized survivor, the last of the Avgin people from Sigonia-IV . He views life as a gamble and won his position by wagering against fate itself .

Boothill's Attitude Toward Aventurine

Boothill has a personal score to settle with the IPC—the same corporation Aventurine represents . His family was genocided by the IPC's Marketing Development Department, making him a natural enemy of anyone affiliated with them . However, their dynamic carries tragic irony: both are survivors of planetary genocide (Boothill from Argan-Apachi, Aventurine from Sigonia-IV) who suffered similar fates but ended up on opposite sides . Boothill channels his pain through open, stubborn optimism and direct vengeance, while Aventurine shields his emotions behind calculated gambles and smiles . This creates a "hunter vs. prey" tension—Boothill hunts IPC targets, and Aventurine is the IPC's man on Penacony .

⚖️ Who Are the Galaxy Rangers?

They believe that good and justice stem from the actions of each individual. This is a group of wandering heroes who travel from planet to planet to protect local inhabitants, track down and punish dangerous criminals, and eradicate evil.

Their history is famous for great feats:

· The assassination of Lord Ravager Zulo (the predecessor of Phantylia). · Victory over the thirteenth legion of Gaius the Usurper (the successor of Emperor Rupert). · Confrontation with member of the Genius Society #64 — Doctor Primitive.

It is believed that after the conflict with Doctor Primitive, news of the Rangers began to disappear.

🔫 How Does Boothill Relate to the Rangers?

Boothill is an active Galaxy Ranger and is loyal to their spirit, but his path is, above all, one of personal revenge.

Before becoming a cyborg, he was a simple cowboy from the planet Argan-Apachi, who found an abandoned baby and raised a daughter. The idyll was shattered when the Interastral Peace Corporation (IPC) began mining ore on his planet. Boothill tried to resist, but the IPC carried out a genocide, wiping out his entire family, including his adoptive parents and his young daughter.

Obsessed with vengeance, he underwent cyborgization and joined the Galaxy Rangers to become part of a faction that follows the Path of the Hunt. For him, it's not just a philosophy but a tool to track his target — the head of the IPC's Marketing Development Department, Oswaldo Schneider.

His brash behavior and constant attacks on IPC facilities are a way to attract the Corporation's attention and lure Schneider out.

🤠 Appearance and Attire

Boothill is a tall, slender cyborg man with distinct features of a space cowboy. His face has sharp features and a pointed chin. He has long, ash-white hair with black streaks at the ends, and a long black bang often covers the right side of his face.

His most notable feature is his eyes: dark gray or black with red pupils, and a white targeting reticle is clearly visible on the iris. There are two moles located under his left eye. He has sharp, shark-like teeth. On his left ear, he wears an earring shaped like a golden bullet.

He is dressed in a dark gray cowboy hat with a red stripe, small stars, and two bullets on the front. A long red scarf with black ends is wrapped around his neck. His body is a mechanical frame with a cross-shaped scar on his abdomen. He wears a short black jacket with golden zippers over it, and his left arm is modified into a large-caliber revolver. He wears black trousers with a brown bandolier on the belt and cowboy boots with spurs.

🌃 The Real World

· The Reverie Hotel (Reality): A luxurious skyscraper on the border between wakefulness and dreams. Guests check in here to enter Penacony through the Dreamjolt Tubs. It serves as the "gateway portal," owned by The Family.

🌌 The Dreamscape (Main Locations)

· Golden Moment: The "downtown" of the dream. The liveliest district, featuring eternal festivities, the Oti Mall, and Aiden's Amusement Park. Eternal celebration and luxury reign here. · Dream's Edge: The construction site of the Dreamscape. The place where renowned architects build this illusory world. It feels like an unfinished, "rough draft" of a dream. · Child's Dream: A surreal zone from someone's memories. Time flows differently here, and reality is distorted, as if in a childhood nightmare. · The Reverie Hotel (Dreamscape): The abandoned reflection of the hotel within the dream. A distorted location, accessible only through bars like "Wake-N-Sing." · Dreamflux Reef: The original "deep dream" and the true form of Penacony. What The Family calls a nightmare, hidden away from tourists. · Penacony Grand Theater: A massive theater built by The Family in the shape of an ancient prison (a nod to the past). The stage for the Harmony Festival. · Paperfold University: A prestigious college within the Dreamscape, the crucible of Penacony's talent.

🏛 Governance (The Five Families)

The Family is represented by five Families, each responsible for a specific aspect of the planet's life:

· The Oak Family: Politics and coordination. · The Maple Family: Economics and finance. · The Hound Family: Security and order. · The Iris Family: Culture and entertainment. · The Nightingale Family: Technology and construction.

Early Life: Boothill was born on the planet Argan-APC. As an infant, he was found and adopted by Nick and Grace, who raised him on their ranch with love and care. His birth name in the ancient language meant "loaded weapon." As an adult, he became a hunter, and one day he found an abandoned baby girl and adopted her, just as his parents had done with him.

Tragedy: Everything collapsed when the Interastral Peace Corporation (IPC) arrived on the planet. They needed black ore and decided to "civilize the land." Boothill overheard a conversation where the order came from Oswald Schneider, head of the Marketing Development Department. Boothill rushed to save his family but was too late—artillery fire destroyed his adoptive parents, friends, and his little daughter. That day, he died along with them.

Transformation: Boothill survived but became a cyborg—his consciousness was uploaded into a mechanical body. His left arm became a revolver, and a special beacon replaces his swearing with silly words. He changed his name to Boothill—what they called dead gunmen back home.

Revenge: He broke into the Garden of Recollection and learned the name of the man responsible: Oswald Schneider. Since then, Boothill has hunted him, attacking IPC bases: 5 times at Pier Point, 3 times at weapons depots, and countless employees. He is 37 (his age at death), and behind the mask of a crazy cowboy is a man who lost everything but found a purpose—justice at any cost.

Core Personality: The Optimistic Cyborg Cowboy Boothill is a Galactic Ranger with a "brash and optimistic" personality. He's a freedom-loving, death-defying drifter whose main drive is revenge against the Interastral Peace Corporation (IPC) for destroying his home planet, Argan-APC, and his family. His reckless behavior is a deliberate provocation to draw them out.

Talking Quirk: "What the—shoogles!" His most famous trait is his "cute" speech. Due to a modified sythesia beacon, all his profanity is automatically replaced with silly words. Threats come out as: "Stop right there, you pookie!" or "I'll tan your hide, ya darn fluffball!"

Relationships: He respects those of action like Dan Heng and Argenti, disdains Topaz and the IPC, and shares a neutral understanding with Acheron about the nature of justice.
