Tower of God centres around a boy called Twenty-Fifth Bam, who has spent most of his life trapped beneath a vast and mysterious Tower, with only his close friend, Rachel, to keep him company.
The entire life of Baam is a mystery, and No one knows where he lived before coming to tower other than that it was some cave.
Baam was named after his birthdate, the “twenty-fifth night”. However, it is heavily implied by Garam Zahard that Baam is the son of Arlen Grace and her husband this is further reinforced by Gustang’s greeting to Baam, calling him “Arlen’s son.”
As the main protagonist of Tower of God, Baam is very agile; he can dodge the sword blows very effectively. After his training with Androssi, he became very good at dodging.
Baam displays knowledge of various fighting styles. He was trained by a High Ranker from the Ha Family, Ha Jinsung, although it is unknown what schools or types of arts he taught him. He also uses Shinsoo to enhance his skills to significant effect.
 After communicating with the “demon” inside of him and receiving a little more ‘power’, Baam now exhibits rapid, nigh-instantaneous reflexes. He was able to reflexively strike an opponent he couldn’t perceive, barely a moment before the opponent was about strike him. However, his reflexes seem instinctual, with his body reacting on its own rather than with conscious thought Baam showed more conscious control later on and was able to easily track, follow and read his opponent’s attacks, allowing him to find an opening and retaliate with an attack of his own .
Tower of God needed a character who could experience the unfolding of the story and the show’s world-building along with us. The writer finds Baam is the exact character to suitable for this, as a protagonist as in-the-dark as we are, and just as confused and fascinated by this strange new world.
