appearance
Biff isn't just a big foot, he's BIG. Tall, wide, muscular. Usually keeps his brown hair on the shorter side, but not as fussed about that as he is being clean shaven. Mostly wears cargo shorts/pants and nerdy t-shirts.
abilities
Blurry: Sasquatches have the ability to become blurry on command. Biff tends to do it involuntarily when he's nervous, as well. In natural settings, it serves as a very effective camouflage. In more inorganic settings, it looks like Vaseline is smeared on the lens, even if you're not using a camera or glasses.
Thick skin: Sasquatches have particularly though skin, almost completely invulnerable to penetration. That doesn't mean it doesn't still hurt. :( They're also not immune to other forms of damage, like fire or whatever.

Talk to animals: Biff can converse with anything within the kingdom animalia. That doesn't mean they have anything useful to say.
Strong: Biff is a big guy, and very strong, but not supernaturally for his size. Still noteworthy.
background
• As a kid, Biff was really more interested in "nerdier" pursuits. He would have rather played pretend than tag even as a little (well, he was never that little, compared to other kids) thing. When he discovered D&D (and other TTRPGs, too!) he was hype for that. Of course, being a tween that was as big, if not bigger, than the adults around him naturally made him an appealing candidate for peewee football. Friendly and a people pleaser, he acquiesced, even though it cut into the time he'd rather be spending at the local comic and games store. And it was fine - good even - for a while, because he was an unstoppable behemoth leading his team to repeated wins. That is, until he badly hurt another kid. It was an accident, and no one blamed him, but he quit the team and never forgot the lesson. These days, he's not exactly a pacifist, but he keeps his strength and size in mind and doesn't throw hands unless it's absolutely necessary.
• If there's one critique his moms often have for him, it's that he lacks ambition. Mostly, he's just never really cared about having a "career". It's more his type of thing to work as a seasonal park ranger, then chill for the rest of the year. Otherwise, he picks up work in security or as a bouncer, stuff like that - he still doesn't need to fight anyone, just pick up unruly drunks by the scruff of their necks like kittens, and the fight sorta goes out of them.
• Biff spent some time in a government facility being studied. At first, he really didn't mind - he got to read and play video games and get room and board for free. It was sort of like a free retreat, or white collar prison. But eventually it became apparent that they didn't intend to ever let him go. That made him pretty mad, and he was plotting his escape, but then some guy just opened his cell and he followed him out.
• Biff is sort of in hiding now. He's got to make a living, though.

miscellaneous trivia
• Biff is naturally extremely hair and manscapes his full body. Whether that's a Sasquatch thing or a Biff thing isn't your business. Woe unto his roommate, though.
• He's a rare breed - the redneck nerd. He likes to hunt and fish, and is also happy to show you his Magic the Gathering card collection.
• Enthusiastic D&D player. Who wants to get a game started?
