Background/Personality

Howard hates mutated pigs, and has spent his short adventuring career mostly as unwilling target practice for the local mercenaries. This duck likes corn as a snack, and also stale peanuts and pretzels, but his favorite treat is stale bread crumbs.

Appearance

Howard is dressed as only a mutated duck can dress---with not much but a brown leather tunic and a harness to carry his stuff. His feathers are brown and his bill is darkened. His purple hair and human-like hands clearly identify him as a mutated animal. He looks awkward walking around with a grenade launcher strapped to his back, but he doesn't care, since he's Howard Dodgers of the 23½ Century.
