Harlan Danger Character in Kobos | World Anvil

Harlan Danger

Harlan Danger Zazerac

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Harlan is beefy, and could be mistaken for a dockworker if it weren't for all the knives.

Facial Features

Harlan wears an impressive set of mutton chop sideburns that accentuate several dueling scars and pock marks.

Apparel & Accessories

Harlan has a rather expensive short sword that he is obscenely proud of; it is a silver-plated mithril blade that keeps a razor's edge.   Otherwise, he's usually wearing boiled leather armor even at social functions.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Harlan Zazerac was born to a barely-connected member of the family, given no privileges or wealth growing up, and orphaned himself by stabbing at the tender age of eight. He lived for a while as a cutpurse until Clan Zazerac sponsored his Becoming.   For his Becoming, he was sent into the wilderness to capture enough meat to fill a new salt-store that had been built in case of a siege. He never told the city fathers that he'd accomplished his task far ahead of schedule by simply sacking caravans coming into the city. Most of the meat he'd provided was stolen - the rest was a convenient method of making the bodies disappear.   After his Becoming, he was swiftly adopted into the Zazerac Family and has been running Harlan Danger's Deadheads, a group of low-rent footpads, extortionists, and second-rate assassins.

Sexuality

Harlan spends a fair amount of money in taverns trying to impress drunk women, but always keeps enough to fall back on and spend on prostitutes when he inevitably gets shot down.

Education

Harlan loudly boasts that he's learned more from head trauma than books, and it's widely known that he has yet to learn when to quit.

Employment

Harlan is the leader of a gang of street toughs known as Harlan Danger's Deadheads.

Intellectual Characteristics

Harlan is stubborn and reckless, though gifted with a sort of low cunning that has thus far allowed him to remain one step ahead of the law.

Morality & Philosophy

Harlan is a Nihilist, and he is out to have as much fun before getting hooked up to a noose as he can.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Harlan is out for fun, and a little revenge against people who have had it better than himself.

Likes & Dislikes

Harlan hates being denied things that he believes he is entitled to, which is nearly anything he wants.

Virtues & Personality perks

Despite his chosen moniker, Harlan is actually fairly prudent when it comes to gauging the odds.

Vices & Personality flaws

Harlan is almost pure envy.

Hygiene

Harlan bathes at cathouses and consequently always smells of perfumes.

Social

Family Ties

Nephew, twice removed to Gormly Zazerac

Religious Views

Harlan is, on principle, an Entropian

Social Aptitude

Harlan's confidence can attract people initially, but his repugnant personality tends to drive those away that don't personally profit from him.

Speech

Harlan took a knife to the throat and hasn't fully recovered, so his voice comes out in a throaty growl.
