Similarly to Erlang, Quasar includes "actor templates" for some common actor behaviors, called *behavior actors*. Their functionality is separated in two: the implementation, which extends [`BehaviorActor`]({{javadoc}}/actors/behaviors/BehaviorActor.html) and standardize handling of standard messages, and the interface, which extends [`Behavior`]({{javadoc}}/actors/behaviors/Behavior.html) (which, in turn, extends `ActorRef`), and includes additional methods to those of `ActorRef`. It's important to note that those interface methods do nothing more than assist in the creation and sending of said standard messages to the actor implementation. They employ no new construct.

By itself, [`BehaviorActor`]({{javadoc}}/actors/behaviors/BehaviorActor.html) provides handling for [`ShutdownMessage`]({{javadoc}}/actors/ShutdownMessage.html), which, as its name suggests, requests an actor to shut itself down, along with the accompanying [`shutdown`]({{javadoc}}/actors/behaviors/Behavior.html#shutdown()) method in the [`Behavior`]({{javadoc}}/actors/behaviors/Behavior.html) class (the "interface" side). In addition, `BehaviorActor` defines standard initialization and termination methods which may be overriden. You should consult the [Javadoc]({{javadoc}}/actors/behaviors/BehaviorActor.html) for more detail.

When a behavior actor is spawned, its `spawn` (or `spawnThread`) method returns its "interface" (which is also an `ActorRef`).
