Description: This northern man is wearing a long, black, dusty cloak. His clothes are grease stained in places. His hair is auburn and curly. His fierce violet eyes like to dwell on things.

Personality: He dislikes all the random violence that takes place in the north. He is ready at a moment's notice to give into his darker urges. He is a real pyromaniac and does not care who the fire hurts. He often ends up burning people alive in the fires he starts.

History: He was born on a small isolated farm. His parents died when he was young, and he was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Howard grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food.
