## General Information

### Physical Appearance

Harold is a variant of a Koopa, whose species are known for being bipedal and notably taller than the average Koopa Troopa, Harold himself posseses yellow, scaley skin, a cream-colored belly plate, a pair of gray boots, a gray and white striped shell and a gray helmet trimmed with white. Like most Hammer Bros., Harold's eye color is a light blue.

### Personality

Much like his brother, Harold can be quite dim-witted, occasionally engaging in comedic mischief that often causes him either verbal or physical pain from others or his surroundings. The key difference between him and Simon is that Harold appears to be more aggressive a smidge more intelligent than his brother due to working alongside Dr. Golden; he often engages in jabs against his own brother for his amusement, even making jabs toward people around him as well, though these acts of course have their consequences.

## Roleplay Information

### Season 8

Harold would first arrive during the intermission between the first and second wars, landing in the Great Grasslands, where he would immediately spot his brother Simon, showing displeasure in his current situation. Upon reaching Moonshade, Harold's automatonophobia arises once he sees Bon Bon, immediately rushing to shoot the animatronic dead, but was apprehended by the surrounding people. Soon, Harold was invited to the bonding party at the ruins, playing Truth or Dare with the others there, though he would use the power of dares a bit too far, using a dare on Frye to make her shine her forehead, which would lead to Mimi daring Amethyst to attack Harold for his antics, he would somehow survive the crazy juice lady with weapons, though he did lose his nuts in exchange for survival. After surviving two nearly fatal encounters with boss enemies, specifically Stapler and the Fiends, Harold would begin to see the errors of his ways, offering some level of justification for his actions, though wishing to move on and apologize for what he's done, most notably to Simon, finally patching up the severed brotherly bond the two had. This, however, would not last, as after helping defeat Bill Cipher in the desert, upon returning to Moonshade, Harold began to succumb to his burns from Bill, giving his final words to Simon before going limp and dying, ending his arc.
