I'm interested, we don't really know much about the character of Bourbon other than what Gin has mentioned and if you agree with certain theories (like SA = Bourbon) so... what do you think his/her character will be like when s/he's introduced? I'm not sure if I've covered enough choices, but... yeah, this should be okay, I s'pose . And don't forget to say why you think that
(And I wasn't sure whether this belonged better in the Manga section, but decided that there'd be more of a variety of choices and justifications if both manga and anime-only watchers voted, besides... manga people can use spoiler tags if they want to say about stuff not yet in the anime)

Voted ambitious, intelligent, mysterious, secretive, creepy (may be his real personnality), mischievous, logical, kid-esque, eisuke-esque and haibara-esque
I want a fun, mischievous BO member (in addition to Vermouth, I mean, since she's not allowed to do much anymore). If people are right and Scar Akai is Bourbon, I hope he's acting and "traumatized silent type" isn't his actual personality.
If other people are right and Okiya is Bourbon, then...I hope "pointless if slightly lolworthy cameo" isn't his actual personality.
Spoiler: No spoilers, just a little OT
I know VermouthAraide made a lot of cameos too before she did anything, but to me they felt different. It was great fun to watch VermouthAraide do things like wasting an entire day spying on Shiratori and Satou with Conan, Ran, and Sonoko. Okiya's fun enough, but his cameos don't make me laugh as much. ;_; Plus, unlike nowadays with Bourbon, we also constantly saw the actual Vermouth and how creepy she was, which made those Araide cameos creepier for those in the know. Even if Okiya is Bourbon, there's not much that's creepy about him anymore.

while I would like a more fun BO member, a silent looming BO would also be interesting. Not necessarily traumatized, just a stoic silent guy who gets the job done.
But if he supposedly hates Akai so much, he can't really be very stoic
Friendly, Arrogant, Intelligent, Secretive, Expressive, Polite, Logical, Angry (for when he flips out at Okiya), Eisuke-esque, Cute, and most importantly Adorkable.

They could have had that in Tequila already if they hadn't killed him off in his cameo episode. ;_;

Omg, Chekhov has a crush on Bourbon.

iunno, tequila seemed a bit incompetent though
That's true, I thought about that after I posted. XD But Gin was kind of incompetent in his first episode too ("Lololol hey Vodka let's test out this new experimental poison on this dude who could finger us both to the police, who as we've just seen hang onto his every word, and not even stay to make sure it works.") I bet if Tequila had lasted, Gosho would have made him appear more competent than he was in the sort of "pre-scary BO" portion of the series.
On topic though, yeah. Bourbon's been said to be intelligent by Kir and Gin, so we can probably count on that being true, whatever his other personality characteristics.
Spoiler: The new competent Gin :V
"Actually, I'll take it one step further and forget the guy ever existed in the first place. :V Also I'll shoot you if you ever touch Scotch tape again, Vodka."

insane Bourbon. DO IT. I want Bourbon...post-Bourbon arc to wear a fake Okiya mask screaming "OKIYA SUBARU OKIYA SUBARU HAHAHAHA" while shooting in random directions. And then eats the mask. Because he's insane. And Vodka's just looking with a DDD: face and slowly walks away.

That would be epic. None of the BO members are properly psychotic.

the only reason I can't see that is because unless he can just turn on and off his insanity (at which point how crazy is he really), crazy people don't make the best detectives.

well insanity doesn't have to begin immediately. It can happen later. And this is anime where that is acceptable anyway.
