Used to describe a specific body type where a character's mass is evenly distributed throughout their body, even in unconventional areas such as the hair, giving the character a rounded, stubby appearance.
Bwompy characters are also commonly depicted as somewhat elastic and bouncy, similar to that of a rubber ball, while retaining the weight a character would have with that amount of body mass.
Bwompy comes from the onomatopoeia 'Bwomp', which is commonly used by artists when depicting something inflating quickly and suddenly, or when an already puffy object slams into something solid with a large amount of force.
