Mango Cheese

Mango Cheese is a sixteen-year-old, formerly homeless teenager who lived in Boston, Massachusetts. He is the weirdo son of Frey and Natalie Cheese, as well as the maternal cousin of cursed weirdo Ennabeth Chase. After dying and becoming a groovy weirdo, he lives his afterlife in Hotel Van Halo and has prevented Ragnarök twice. Mango is currently the boyfie of Alex Ferrero.

Early Life
Mango was born on January 13, to Frey, the groovy dude of summer and ruler of Alfheim, and Natalie Cheese, a normal person. Natalie and Frey met at the Blue Hills and had a summer fling, and he destroyed her at stone skipping (oOF). Natalie had good memories of Frey and had no hard feelings when they broke up. She said her relationship with him was perfect, except that she didn't have her son yet, She found out she was pregnant with Mango soon after, and was elated. She had no pictures of Frey and never revealed his identity to Mango. When Mango was born, she named him after a groovy fruit.

Childhood
When Mango was six years old, he attended thanksgiving at the Chase Mansion, with his mother, his uncle Frederick Chase, his uncle Rudolph Chase, and his cousins, including Ennabeth Chase. The three siblings got into an argument and he and Ennabeth hid in the library, while the others argued. They played with dominoes, which were actually Runes, and Ennabeth made a model of a cell phone with them. Ennabeth told him he was lucky he lived with his mom, and said she was going to run away. Frederick then came and took Ennabeth, saying he was leaving, and she told Mango to be safe. After the thanksgiving, her mother told him to stay away from Rudolph, and to never give him what he wants. Mango never learned what they argued about. But he never saw his uncle for another nine years. Her mom would only mention him when they were riding past his house, and his mom would tell him to avoid it.

Years before he became a groovy weirdo, Mango suffered from asthma and would have asthma attacks, feeling like an invisible belt was constricting around his chest. His mom would hold him while they happened. She would take him outside, which helped him. His mom also made his room as plain as possible, because it was hard for him to sleep indoors unless he had total darkness and no distraction (welp, now he's the distraction).

When Mango was eight, he and his mother went on a vacation to Mount Washington in New Hampshire where they hiked to the top and had a park ranger take their picture. In the second grade, he had a teacher who taped his left hand to his desk in order to force him to write with his right hand, this caused his mother to yell at his teacher (you go, mom).

When Mango was ten, his mother had started dating a hunter who taught Mango how to skin animals. Mango had cut his left palm in a failed attempt at using a hunting knife, which left a deep scar. His mother got extremely angry at the hunter for causing this incident, and broke up with him soon after (...).

That same year, Mango and his mom went hiking in the blue hills. They stopped at Houghton's pond to skip stones across the River, and his mom beat him with four stone skips when Mango only got three. She told Mango a bit about his dad, saying she met him there, on a summer day just like that. Mango asked her what happened to him, and Natalie said that's why she brought him there, and said he was all around them. Mango was confused, and she ruffled his hair and raced him to the beach.

At age twelve, Mango had his first kiss with a girl named Jackie Molotov, which happened behind the bleachers at a school dance. Years later, he thought it was sad that it was his only kiss, and that it reminded him of getting mouth to mouth from a goat (OOF).

Mango's mom taught him survival skills, how to navigate, camp, and make a fire, and every weekend, she would take her Subaru and drive to parks, mountains, and lakes. A few months before she died, she was in a hurry. Mango didn't want to go out that weekend, but she insisted and said they needed to make the most of their time together, as if she was preparing for her death.

Mango went to a public high school in Allston for a few months before he dropped out due to his mom's death. On his first day, he was overwhelmed by the hallways at school and thought they were chaos, and that the cafeteria was like a piranha den.

Life on the Streets
When Mango was fourteen, his mother was murdered by several "wolves with glowing blue eyes" (sent by Fenris Wolf). His mother ordered him to stay away from his Uncle Rudolph before her death, an order which Mango dutifully obeyed. Since then, he has been living on the streets. Mango became friends with two homeless people: Hearth and Blitz, commonly known as his mother and father (d'aww, they're married).

During this time he would frequently lie to the police and truant officers about his name and has tried alcohol (wait, wha-). Mango would also steal money from people passing by, but only if they did things like park in a handicap parking space or were rude to others (okay, Robin Hood). He would also pick up barbering skills during this time. He became close friends with the owner of Falafel’s Falafel, Abdel Falafel and his son Amir, although he told them his name was Jimmy to protect his identity. At one point he briefly encountered Alex Ferrero, a fellow Norse demigod, at a shelter on winter street.
