It has no shell in the /etc/passwd entry by default.
Maybe it then defaults to csh (which is really tcsh) if nothing
else is given.   Seems strange if it does that, but???

Or, maybe the OP managed to get it put in the /etc/passwd entry.

Anyway, I prefer tcsh, but if the OP just has to have it bash,
it is easy to do.

All the OP has to do is install bash from /usr/ports/shells/bash and 
then edit /etc/passwd to change the last field for toor - after the last 
colon - to point to where it installs bash (/usr/local/bin/bash maybe) 
and then it should all be fine.
