For me...
A boy of course, portraying the opposite sex except in Halloween fun is something my identical twin does, not me.
As a kid I liked the skunk, reminded me of Flower from Bambi.
Now, I could still go the skunk route...black and white...maybe a bit of the fart joke inserted here and there...a spear and bow type of adventurer, fair with sword.
I would think he is a smell oriented type...imagining the perfume from the mother lost...awww lol.
Maybe using the sensitive nose to find exotic flowers to impress the indian girls and mermaids...publicly all tough and such, but really a softy for the girly smile and giggle.
Top that!
