Allright - finally got a picture of Higgs up in my gallery.

Penciled and inked by hand (as opposed to tablet), off and on for about two weeks... overall time to complete... maybe three hours?

Below is Higgs' character template, as suggested by

+BASICS+
Full name: Higgs Krono
Race: Ikanian
Age: Rumored to be between 25-30
Gender: Male
Occupation: Traveling Illusionist/ Necromancer
Blood Type: B

+APPEARANCE+
Height/Weight: Around 7 feet tall/ Approx. 280 lbs.
Hair: Originally black; dyed and bleached to a pale orange-red with silver streaks
Eyes: Bright green
Skin Tone: Tanned, Olive hue
General Build: Fairly well built. While not rippling with muscles, it as apparent that he isn't unfit either.
Distinguishing features: Ears are pierced with a series of ornate studs, chains, and other miscellary; blackened teeth; wears facial paint and makeup from the waist up, varying depending on his mood / the day/ whom he is in the presence of.
Preferred clothing: A tattered series of smoking jackets and tunics, layered usually three sets thick; most with customized details/ embellishments. Under the tunic, he usually wears a pair of riding pants as well as riding boots, also customized.
Accessories: Higgs tends to be a bit of a packrat, wearing armor/ jewelry he finds / takes (steals) on his journeys and equally loses such trinkets with alarming regularity.

+PERSONALITY+
General Attitude: Most often jovial, sometimes to such an extent it seems nearly menacing. He rarely finds need to confront people to suit his own agenda, but if called upon a task, he takes it upon himself with an inordinate amount of stubborness.
Likes: Due to his bizarre knack of seeming pleased at nearly all times, it is hard to determine if Higgs has any particular "likes."
Dislikes: Higgs only seems to seem remotely displeased upon finidng the recently deceased, and even then, this might just be a heightened period of seriousness and not a dislike.
Quirks: Higgs has limited hearing, vision, sense of touch (this also applies to pain reception), and smell, and as such relates people to "tastes," which seem to have some logic to him, but appears arbitrary (and on occassion offensive) to other parties. Higgs also has the tendency to seem to get lost in thought or in conversation with his "ladies," the invisible spirits which seem to accompany him. These said spirits are also, he claims, to be the source of his dulled senses, as he claims to be sharing these senses with them. Also, as per request of a number of parties, Higgs has no apparent sexual preference, finding both genders equally amusing. This isn't to say he is bisexual however, he is just completely ambilivalent to either side.
Abilities of note: Higgs appears to have control over these spirits, able to command them to move objects, people, etc. These spirits also aid him in levitation and flight, negating his need to walk from place to place. Higgs also is a skilled illustionist/ magical practioner, although he uses these skills to a lesser extent.

+BACKGROUND+
Social Status: Wanderer - No known Social Status - nor does he especially care about ranking.
Family Status: Unknown - Higgs first appeared to the public at large far past his teenage years with no known background other than what he has expressed.
Birth Rank: Again - unknown.
Homeland/Birthplace: Ikana Valley - according to his own accord
History: As previously stated, much of Higgs backstory is muddled if not completely unknown. Claiming to hail from the Ikana Valley of Termina, Higgs somehow found passage to Hyrule. First reports of him seem to come from before the fall of Hyrule Castle, with travelers claiming seeing a "flying painted giant" roaming the fields at night. Others reports claim seeing a similar figure in the Lost Woods speaking to floating orbs and spctral lights. These reports' central figures tend to share strong resemblances of Higgs.

The first official appearance of Higgs within a large group of people was one fateful moring in the central Hyrule marketplace with Higgs warning of the fall of the kingdom before making a hasty retreat before being apprehended by the castle guards.

From there, reports became scttered and more bizarre, reports from families seeing a stange man fitting Higgs appearance appearing in their homes and rummaging through their belongings. Other reports similar to these as well as being reported at the same time indicate the presence of a lone voice talking to itself in darkened houses, and loud footsteps upon rooftops. Whether any of these are linked to Higgs, however, is debateable at best.

In recent years, during what is called the Regin of Shadows, Higgs has made his presence known to a number of other characters. Seeming to be working with the "shadows," Higgs has already confronted a number of characters, but has not been a direct threat... yet.

+COMBAT+
General proficiency level: Higgs seems to know how to hurt people, but is woefully inarticulate with any weapons, not even bothering to carry any on his person. He instead makes up for this lack with natural talents and through the assistance of his "ladies." He has however been known to attack directly on ocassion.
Style: Brutish when attacking physically, and dreadfully precise with his "ladies." Higgs and his entourage don't seem to have any set style about them.
Advantages: Due to Higgs' size, he has a physical advantage over most people. Plus accompanied by his necromancer abilities, he has a reach that few other combatants could ever dream of. Also, due to his dulled senses, Higgs is nealy incapable of feeling pain, which makes him appaear all the more resilient.
Disadvantages: Higgs is not trained in any sort of combat and it is painfully obvious, rarely putting up any defense to oncoming attacks. While his attacks often are very damning to his opponents, he doesn't have the mindset to press an attack and usually leaves himself open for retaliation. Also, although he is incapable of feeling pain, he is still mortal and is capable of being injured, often quite severely.
Special: Again, due to his necromancer powers, he is capable of such tactics such as flight and manipulation of physcial objects by commanding his spirit entourage. Through this, he has a wide range of attacks, limited only to his and his entourage's imagination.
Techniques: Higgs doesn't have any set techniques - he just goes with the tides, for lack of a better term.

+OTHER+
Usually when I build a character, to help me create a theme or a presence for them, I usually focus them around a certain song in particular. Although more often than not the lyrics revolve around the character (or probably vice versa), sometimes the song's "weight" and presence becomes the parallel of my character. In Higg's case, he falls into the latter, with the song that inspired him being "Flaming Telepaths" by Blue Oyster Cult from their "Secret Treaties" album. If you ever get a chance, I strongly suggest checking it out.
