Bombell (爆弾鐘 in Japan, which means Bakukane) is a Bomb Boo, a fusion between a Boo and a Bob-Omb that is the main protagonist and hero of the Bombell series. Bombell's main goal is to help anyone who is in danger and save his homeland from being attacked, which makes Shadem his arch-nemesis in the series since these are his plans. Ever since he turned into a hero, Bombell became sure of himself and has gotten real friends that will help him on his quests. Since his first appearance, Bombell has appeared in several Fantendo spin-off games.

Story
Bombell was a normal, little Bomb Boo, who didn't know how to use his explosive powers. The other Boos just made fun of him, and he eventually left the mansion.
A few days later, Bombell met a very shy and smart Boo, called Booster, and they became best friends. Booster went to his laboratory with Bombell to show him some of his experiments. While Booster was distracted, Bombell took one of the potions. Booster saw Bombell with the potion and shouted him not to touch that. However, this caused Bombell to accidentally drop the potion, sprinkling on him. When Bombell awoke, he noticed he was different, he was bigger and he felt stronger. Now, thanks to Booster's potion, Bombell was explosive and had stronger powers than any normal Bomb Boo.
Personality
Bombell was very depressed when he was a regular Bomb Boo. He was easily frightened of everything and was very shy and somewhat awkward. All of this was due to how bad he was treated by the other Boos in the mansion, as they just made fun of him for being timid, coward and weak.
When Bombell got his transformation, he somehow got a very kind, funny and friendly personality. He's also brave, curious, adventurous and heroic. Bombell loves to help anyone who is in need, and has great friends now who help him on his adventures.
Appearance
Bombell is a dark grey, almost black, Boo with yellow eyes and teeth, just like other Bomb Boos. However, he also has yellow lines around him and a yellow fuse, like Bob-ombs. He's also slightly bigger than normal Boos.
