Eggs, from The Boxtrolls, is a young boy with messy, shaggy brown hair, fair skin, and big, expressive brown eyes. He usually wears simple, worn-out clothing suited to his life underground with the Boxtrolls, including a loose shirt, patched-up pants, and his signature cardboard box around his body. His appearance is scruffy and unkempt, but he has a naturally sweet and expressive face. Personality-wise, Eggs is kind-hearted, curious, adventurous, and incredibly loyal to the Boxtrolls who raised him. He can be shy and uncertain when faced with unfamiliar people or situations, but he becomes brave and determined when someone he cares about is in danger. He is compassionate toward others, dislikes cruelty and unfairness, and has a playful, innocent sense of humor.
