[(E)]

H is also for Hawke

Joseph Hawke was born in the Northern Territory of Australia, the son of a foreign correspondent. His mother had difficult time delivering him far from the nearest doctor and was helped by the local aboriginal tribe. His father showered them with gifts to show his gratitude and they in turn bestowed a blessing upon the baby.

Joseph grew up following his father around the world and was a surprisingly charismatic child who quickly fitted in wherever he went. As a young man he continued his travels and made a living by writing about his adventures for various newspapers under the byline "Hawke". Hunting in Africa, training with yogis by the Ganges river, tussling with the gangs in Hong Kong and climbing in the Andes. His reputation and fame as an adventurer grew and he has a loyal following. After war broke out he switched roles to that that of a war correspondent though he always seems to get involved and help out. A crack shot with his trusty revolver and dab hand with his fists.
