They use bubbles as a way of storage and to help make clear domes. The Boov's technology is based around bubbles and plasma energy. They don't fully understand other cultures, mistaking inedible objects for food and speaking broken English, though they appear to be fluent in other languages. The Boov are always isolated and are often absorbed in their current activities. Because of this they don't require companionship or show affection for others. Since their previous planet spread the Boov far apart from each other, they didn't have neighbors. They frequently flee from their enemies or danger. The Boov are known throughout the universe for being the best at running away. The Boov, unlike most other species, have a total of seven separate sexes: male, female, boygirl, girlboy, boyboy, boyboygirl and boyboyboyboy. The Boov can control some color changes, mostly by inflicting pain. Orange is when they feel happiness and excitement. Pink is when they feel love or affection. Periwinkle is when they feel extreme fear or shock. Blue is when they are sad, confused or depressed. Purple is when their body is struck or is vibrated. They usually change depending on their emotions or actions. The Boov has the ability to change color, both voluntary and involuntary. The Boov are very durable, being able to be crushed by large, heavy objects. They don't have hair but they have feelers that look close to it. They can jump but not as far or high without an outside force acting on them.
The Boov have six stubby pods that they walk or run on. Their digestive tract is more durable than a humans, able to break down plastic, glass, motor oil, etc. The Boov can breath air, but through tentacle like nostrils attached to the sides of their heads like horns that they can coil. They only appear to only have nine molars spread in their mouths that can crush material like plastic. The Boov's have two eyes and arms with four fingers. They are amphibious and are exceptional swimmers. Boov are relatively short creatures compared to humans, adults are roughly the size of human children.
