Arthur Hawke
CEO of LocalFusion
Tall, skinny, chain smoking con man wanted in Panama and the Philippines. Always pulls the online magazine license gag and has ripped people off many times. Claims to be a Vietnam Vet, always getting shot at and kidnapped and so on. In many ways a likeable rogue but basicaly little more than a criminal, preying on decent people. If this Arthur Hawke is not the same guy (looks identical), I will retract this but the Arthur Youngblood Hawke I know is all of the above and worse. And you are not forgotten, either.
