Bing Shou is very naive, as he had literally slept most of his life, leaving him with little knowledge of the world. Due to global warming and the heat of seasonal areas, He suffers from sleep deprivation. (Which a whole night of sleep is considered almost no sleep for him). This makes Shou very sluggish and is often found dozing off. Shou has foul temper which is amplified by the lack of sleep, making him quite a grump. He usually throws a mini snowstorm of a tantrum before calming himself down.  On good days Bing Shou is found to act quite neutral, often curious and content with just being there. He isn't afraid to socialize and finds it quite intriguing.. but his lack of words does frustrate him or make it difficult to communicate. 


History:

 Bing Shou was born in the freezing cold tops of the Himalayas. He has a vague memory of his parents as they disappeared when he already became 70 years old, having slept the entire time since 6 weeks after his birth. Since then he had been hunting and living on his own. Barely leaving his den. Once he hit 120 he met his first human however. Not sure what it was and already being awake on his own he would follow the human. It turned out to be a young villager of a town that lived near the bottom of the mountain. The human seemed to dump a body of a goat in front of his den. Chant sounds that Bing Shou was unfamiliar with. 

Curious Bing Shou revealed himself to the man only to scare the lad on accident. The man running away leaving the meat to fill Shou's tummy. With a full meal Shou went back to sleep only to be woken up with the rumbling of an avalanche. Grumpy and upset, he dug out the entrance to the cave, only to hear a cry. Shou followed the sound sleepily, before realizing there was a hole int he snow where the sound was coming from. Shou started digging at the snow only to find the man from earlier stuck in the snow. Shou grumpily pulled the man out with a gruff, then guide the man safely down the mountain. The man kept making sounds making Shou tilt his head, and once they made it off the mountain. The man took Shou to the village in secret... 

Shou was fed and given his first and only clothing. Shou stayed with the man for a few days as the man taught him some words, even giving Shou a name which is what he calls himself.. Bing Shou. But Shou could only stay awake for so long, and without the need for food to keep him awake, he slowly became grouchy.. but able to communicate to the man just enough to let him know he was going back to his den to sleep and  the man reluctantly let him go once it was nightfall. 

Shou slept for 40 years, only to wake up with a shrine of gifts surrounding him in the cave. Shou confused, went out to hunt only to smell meat buried in the snow in front of his den. Shou heard chanting again but found a group chanting towards his den. Only to be bowed to by the group once he approached. An older man spoke to him kindly, and familarly. Shou couldnt recognize the man since his appearanced changed in what Shou considered overnight. The man walked with Shou back to his den as the other men seemed to give a sad farwell.. which seemed odd to Shou. Those several days Shou was awake, he conversed and talked with the man. A man that felt colder with each day that passed.Shou unable to stay awake anymore, rested in front of the man, hearing the last words of his first friend telling him to sleep well.

Decades past before Shou awoke again, each time he did he woke up to the completely frozen body of the man. Shou would try to talk to him... never understanding why the man didnt talk back but the face the man gave always seemed to say enough. And Shou would just go back to sleep after eating what meat was left for him outside his den. This continued for a while Shou sleeping for less and less at a time. Until he was 250 yars old. This is when he started having problems sleeping. He started being woken up by the casual climbers and more avalanches. He also found that there was no more free meat left for him in front of his den and any sign of gifts were buried decades ago in the snow. This continued for a grumpy 30 years before he started to lash out. Any unlucky climber would meet there fate, the new found "heat" getting to the beast. 

Shou was causing so much commontion, he was even being searched for by yeti enthusiast and secretly being hunted by the local villages for the stealing of livestock. He would end up waking up to his entrance of his den being blocked off by rocks as a desparate attempt to secretly get rid of the famous beast. Frustrated and angered, he busted at the rocks only to hiss at the sun warmth. He returned to his den in retreat one last time, til he found his best friend fallen over and slumped on the ground.. the man was thawing.. and stinking.. The horror of what the world was becoming hit Shou.. He froze his friend and sealed his cave with ice, before leaving to find a way to return his mountains to a sleepable temperature. 

After a time of painful wandering he was able to make contact with others who could help him.. sending him off to a place where he could learn a way to solve his problems.. or so he thought. Ending him up at the entrance of the otherworld academy.

Samples
Script Sample
Bing Shou: Walks around the academy and stares at the large buildings with interest. Carrying small personal bag all hobo style// ....o O o Big...  //Yawns rubbing his eyes as he grumpily thumps his tail on the ground// where... my.. bed? // grumbles, wondering off, hoping he didn't fall asleep while walking//
Lit Sample
Bing Shou walked onto the grounds. He wondered around curiously staring at the buildings in awe. He was carrying what little personal items he had in a hobo sack over his shoulder. "..o O o ............big..." He mumbled out staring up at the main building. He then yawned loudly, rubbing his eyes with a grumpy thump of his tail on the ground. Annoyed at his own tiredness, he glanced around pouting. "...................where... my  bed?" He mumbled tiredly before continuing his wandering.. hoping he didn't fall asleep on the way.
