Randy Howell
From SSDC, Inc.
Randy Howell "Colonel" Weaver's Lieutenant
Appears in: Fire and Ice: Chapter 5: The Free Americans and The Firing Range
Strengths: A Walking Arsenal
Weaknesses: Not a Ram Python
Description: "Randy Howell" (also not his given name) is the closest thing to a friend Vernon Weaver has ever had. Howell was a corporal in Weaver's platoon before they both went AWOL. Randy idolizes his friend and obeys him unquestioningly. Weaver has appointed Howell as his second-in-command, and the others follow out of awe, as well as intimidation. Howell is the Free Americans' heavy weapons and demolition specialist. He is the human analog of a Ram Python. He can fight to -4 BP before losing consciousness, and his Death's Door is -19! Loud noises and lots of explosion and destruction fascinate Howell - his choice of weaponry proves it. Of all the Free Americans, this man is the most dangerous. He is a walking arsenal!
NOTABLE STATEMENTS:
Don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry...
This is a simple malfunction. Haven't you ever heard of "immediate action"?
The colonel gave you an assignment. I'm here to make sure it's carried out.
