Jon Howard

Description:
He has long, chestnut hair, and is rather tan in skin tone; he also has a shaggy beard. His eyes are a shade of dark-green. Due to being punished often, he had to work outside. Because of this, his hands and feet are coarse. His voice is a deep bass, and has been told that his singing voice is quite raspy.

Backstory:
Born as an orphan, Jonathan "Jon" Howard was raised in a ratty orphanage in a very quiet town. He grew up distancing himself from other children, even when they tried to show him kindness. The head of the orphanage, Miss Mary, was hard on Jon; And he in turn was even rougher, so rough that he'd occasionally make her cry.

When he finally became eighteen years of age, he stormed out the orphanage. In his haste, he plowed through several townsfolk, and quickly went to sign up for his town's local militia. To Jon's surprise, they were already in combat with several Were-Wolves. Not one to hesitate, Jon quickly went forth to where the battle dis' lay.

On his way over, he found a downed soldier, and quickly took the weapons off of him. To his delight, they were brass knuckles with knives attached. (A little something like this. ->  )

In combat, Jon found how quickly things could turn awry. Several times he almost got gang-banged by Were-Wolves, but was saved at the last minute. Eventually, they won, and the militia went home.

The soldiers who survived told their commander about Jon's bravery, and ferocious combat ability. Amazed, he accepted Jon Howard into their militia.

And from then forth he became a town legend, and wandered off to explore the unknown.

Personality:
He isn't necessarily a "noble hero." Jon is more of an Anti-Hero. He'll fight anyone who challenges him to the death, be they male or female. If said opponent stops fighting and flees, Jon will continue to chase them down, and execute them. He does not open his heart to anyone, and prefers to be alone. To him, love is "not real." Though reluctant at first, those patient will realize that Jon has good in him, even if he doesn't like to show it at first glance.
