Hiram is a secondary character of the game, Nocturne.
He is an older agent of Spookhouse, an organization that protects the United States from supernatural threats domestically and all around the world.
Appearance[]
Hiram is a portly man with a below average height, fair skin, gray hair and curled mustache.
He wears a gray suit with reading glasses and a gray bowler hat.
Personality[]
While within the walls of Spookhouse, Hiram is a calm and mild-mannered gentleman that speaks with a sophisticated and soft demeanor. He's well educated and not much of a man with a fighting spirit. Once he's outside of Spookhouse on a assignment, he is changed; very nervous, alert and nearly always on the edge of freight.
History[]
Hiram is an older member of Spookhouse that joined in 1915. Not much of his history is known, but his service to Spookhouse mainly consists of research and documentation behind a desk. On occasion he‘s called upon to go into the field in a combat capacity, but his nervous nature and considerable bulk make him ill-equipped as a soldier. To compensate, he tends to carry an assortment of silver, wood, and mercury weapons so that he can handle confrontations with practically any supernatural creature. His education included a small amount of medical training, so his services as a medic are sometimes employed.
Plot[]
In 1927 after being briefed about his mission to Germany, The Stranger passes by Hiram sitting at his desk. Hiram was fully aware that Stranger had entered the room without looking up from his work, feeling his distinctive and intense feelings. They have a short conversation about Stranger’s mission before going about their business.
Four years later, Hiram and Stranger were on a train to Redeye, Texas to rendezvous with Scat Dazzle. Hiram gave a briefing about the zombie infestation in the little town and then started to feel overwhelmingly nervous. He could feel anger being directed at him from all directions and couldn't track a specific source. He started to panic as the feeling was getting closer and the Alpha Werewolf of the Hökkendire Werewolf Tribe pulled Hiram through the train-car window, killing him. Stranger continued the mission and used the items in Hiram’s baggage.
