No, i didnt get promoted to manager. But my manager is out on vacation and told me and 2 others on the team to interview this guy.

Dont worry about technical questions, i have some good ones. But what are behavioral questions to ask?

I've never seen a lot of value in creative interview questions, nor do I believe that the behavioral question fad is particularly useful for most fields. However, if you want to move away from the basic skills and expertise question, you could devise hypotheticals based on actual events at your company to see the candidates' problem-solving skills.
