Here's my ref sheet for Bo' Ra Chu. Hope he makes it through!
Now here's a bit of info on Bo.

Story: Bo' Ra Chu was born into a wealthy city and family in the southern region of Earth Kingdom. His mother became very ill and died 2 years after he was born. Although his family had very admirable traits, he had inherited none of them. He always seemed to get everything wrong, even at Earth Bending. His father later trained him in martial arts to at least give him a trait. At age 18, he had become the soul heir to their families style and almost at master level of his training. But, later his father had received notice that he was to be sent to war.

"Son," He said to Bo, "I know this may be hard for you, but I may not be coming back, but when you have knowledge that I am no longer alive go back to the temple of our training. Remove the statue of the Avatar and enter the room behind it, there you will receive the final teachings of our style." 2 years later, a messenger arrived bearing ill news, saying that his father had died in a raid on a Fire Nation encampment.

Distraught, he sought comfort in the drink. But after being kicked out of the tavern and slightly sober, he remembered what his father had said and headed for the temple with a bottle in hand. He moved the statue and entered the room. He discovered that the teachings were etched into the walls of the room, but could not understand them. Feeling guilty for not understanding the etchings he opened the bottle and began to drink again. But as he drank, he noticed that the etchings began to move and he later mimicked their movements and had finally masted the art.

Yep thats his story.

[EDIT]
Here's a bit more info on Bo. How he's really based on me is that fact that really didn't acquire any traits from my parents. Both of my parents are very intelligent while I'm dumb as a door nail. Bo really tries to please everyone around him and so do I.

My personality is best described in both Bo's drunken and sober state. I can be very prim and proper but at a given moment be completely random and stupid. Hope everyone's got their boots strapped and gloves tightened cause Bo's gunna bring it XD

It's actually based on one of the legends of how Zui Quan came to be. I just made it go with my character. Not bad, huh?
