Callum Aurelio, rarely known as "Cal", is one of the three demons that owns the Best Eastern Hotel. They are the older sibling of Ignatius Aurelio and uncle to Ashton Aurelio. Callum is known for their reserved personality, and plant related abilities.

Biography
Callum is a reserved and quite silent character who doesn't express much emotion. They're only affectionate towards their family, Iggy and Ashton. Callum is often met with conflict, but they aren't fond of expressing their troubles.. they keep to themselves, and rarely speak to anyone. Callum dislikes help, but they're more than free to help others. Due to Callum being very weak, they use an umbrella to defend themselves, which then a blade could come out of the handle as some sort of sword. Their most significant traits are being fairly silent, cold, weak, and reserved towards most of the hotel residents.

They seem to have a troubling time trying to bond with their brother, Ignatius, but they try to express their affection and admiration towards him with any form of alternative for words. Their relationship is put into more detail in the show once the participants reach the third floor. Due to Ignaitus treating Ashton more like a friend, Callum spent most of their time taking care of Ashton, meaning that Ashton is most likely the one Callum has mostly talked to. Callum seems to be very fond of Cookie, also being extremely friendly and social to her. Meanwhile with Lamb, Callum can't really stand her, due to events that occurred around the time the participants have reached the second/third floor.

Etymology
Callum was derived from Latin Columba, a unisex given name meaning "dove".

This ties to Callum's peculiar connection to birds, and their odd connection to a few other animals. This could also be connected to the fact that nature facinates Callum, and hence their floor is covered in greenery. The name Aurelio is a boy's name of Italian origin meaning "the golden one". This also reflects on how Callum's, Ignaitus', and Ashton's blood is orange/yellow, which is close to golden.

"Cal" is rarely used to refer to Callum, but only Ashton ever refers to Callum in that manner.

Relationships
Although Callum isn't social, they have developed relationships with a couple of characters.

Ignaitus Aurelio
Ignatius is Callum's younger brother. Callum raised Ignaitus but has always been extremely quiet. They barely spoke to Iggy while growing up, resulting in Iggy being very social compared to Callum. Despite their silent relationship and differences, Callum cares for their sibling dearly, even retiring in order to help Ignatius take care of his son, Ashton.

Ashton Aurelio
They have a great relationship, and Callum most often communicates to Ashton. Due to them raising Ashton, Callum always wants to be on good terms with him, and only lets Ashton refer to them as "Cal". Callum is fairly protective of Ashton, but doesn't express it due to them wanting to seem like a cool and chill uncle.

Cookie
Cookie is Callum's best friend despite Ignaitus not being a fan of their relationship. Callum cares deeply for Cookie, and Cookie is the only person who Callum has genuinely been interested in. Cookie is one of the only people Callum has talked to the most.

Kei
Callum is close to Kei, but they aren't as close like Cookie and Callum. Callum feels as if they owe everything to Kei, knowing that he was there when Cookie was in a fatal state.

Jonny
Callum isn't fond of Jonny, but they don't particularly hate him. Callum tends to be nicer to him around Ignaitus, but that doesn't mean Callum won't pick on him from time to time. Callum doesn't talk or hang around Jonny much.

KPX
Callum doesn't have much of an opinion on the PX species, only knowing that someone who looks strikingly similar to KPX probably killed their parents. This makes Callum very cautious around him, and would defend their family if anything went down between them.

Lamb
Callum dislikes Lamb, but doesn't quite hate them. Callum picks on and bullies her an awful lot, especially due to the conspiracies Lamb had told Cookie about Callum. They try to avoid Mind because of Lamb though.

Mind
Mind is always around Lamb, causing Callum to be hesitant around him. If Callum bothers hitting Lamb they'd most likely get crushed due to how weak they are.

Remmy
Callum has no idea who Remmy is, but they like how they dress. Callum thinks that Remmy has a very enchanting and unique appearance/style.

Paloma (messenger)
Paloma is the messenger for Callum's floor, who is completely mute. They don't talk to one another whatsoever, but Paloma knows that Callum trusts her with their life. Paloma is aware of most of the things that Callum hides, therefore they have a strong, yet quiet bond.

Capri (cook/chef)
Capri is the goat that helps Callum with cooking. They have a lot of fun cooking with one another, and Callum enjoys teaching her how to cook. However, this is short lived due to unforeseen circumstances that Capri had put Callum in. Callum never grew a strong bond with Capri, but they felt loss as someone they trusted so dearly had done such a thing.
