Bio: Always the quiet type but loved his father dearly, when his father died his mother got remarried with a man named Stan. Stan hated Howard from the first moment they met, whenever his mother wasn't looking Stan'd punch him or hurt him In some way physically or mentally. However one day his mother never came back home from work and from that day on his life was living hell, Stan's violent attacks grew more frequent and more violent, leaving larger, uglier scars across his bod but cleverly only on his torso to avoid them being seen by people. Soon Howard visited home less frequently, favoring a library on the border of the north and the south instead, there he found peace and love among the many books on the shelves. He'd spend nights at a time in the library, sitting upstairs in his corner and reading, eventually all the stacked books in the corner piled up due to his persistence to keep them where they were, soon he made them into a fort. However he couldn't stay in his book fort forever, he had to return home and when he did, the full wrath of Stan was felt upon him usually adding a new scar, he'd never fight back against Stan, he knew his mother would not be happy with him if he fought, however he was never angry to him only scared of him, he would listen to everyone of stan's commands if told to avoid being beat.
