Meet Neslo

Neslo

 This is the nonsense-kid from your childhood who made you come outside to partake in his crazy adventure/games or see a discovery made in the neighborhood (which would most likely be roadkill at that age).

 He's the kid who will invite you to come join him in looking for hornets’ nest and before you have time to refuse, you find yourself already throwing rocks at one alongside him.

 Like most boys, he enjoys the thrill of adventure and loves the rewards of candy, ice-cream, money and the like. 

 If he hears you're having a birthday party, he will crash that party without an invitation and convince your mom he's a friend from school so he may benefit in your shindig of cake and games. If found out he'll make a hasty retreat out the window with cake (and maybe with one of your presents) in hand.

 Other interests include hats and costumes....just to name a few. Though, he hates boringness. Nothing displeases him like wasting the time and day doing nothing. So to avoid wasting a potential afternoon, he'll pull some sort of plan out of his hat. It may not be safe, but it's something.

 This hyperactive kid has spent his childhood romping around the neighborhood and exploring the magical wilderness of the countryside of his back yard. Whether he's by himself or with peers, if he sees or thinks of something interesting, he's gonna go after it. He lives alone with his mom in a house left to them by his father.

Kids in the Neighborhood 

Pollie

  This is the pompous girl from your childhood who makes sure you know you're wrong (whether it be in pronunciation or definition of the word, you're wrong) and she makes you think twice before saying something that could make you look stupid. It's not that she's smarter than you; it's that she thinks she's practically a grown-up with how much she thinks she knows. This big reason, along with her ugly mug, is why Neslo shares such mutual spite and cannot share the same space without an exchange of foul words with her. 

Tendo

 This gentle child isis the little girl who just wants everyone in the world in the world to be happy and have a puppy to hug, unaware of all the odds stacked against the opposite happening.  She  is Neslo's primary sidekick and often accomplice as most situations tend to go sour. She follows Neslo around and partakes in his dangerous (and problematic) acts of adventure not to cause trouble, but for the sake of sharing in the fun and thrill of his company as his never-suspecting best friend.
  

Po

 Barely an adolescent, but has already absorbed the jaded mindset and all the sarcasm of a full-fledged teenager. Combined with Neslo's flooded fountain of ignorant & youthful spirit for adventure, Po often finds himself the victim in practically every situation he's involved in. However, as the only other male kid in the neighborhood, they do occasionally spend outing together.

 As the older brother, he has been given the duty to look out for his little (if not baby) sister, Tendo, and take the full brunt of usually all blame between them.  Failure to do so will result in punishment from their mother. The challenge of the task is doubled when considering her best friend is Neslo, the crazy kid who thinks there is treasure buried deep inside a cave...that belongs to a bear.
