Halvard's profile in Nightmare Festival is done. Here's a few facts about him.


 * His name Halvard is a Norwegian name meaning 'rock guardian', which fits his character as a golem and what he's usually tasked for.


 * The alchemist family vaults that Halvard is tasked in protecting is located deep in the Canadian Rockies, specifically the Canadian province of British Columbia. There's a rumour among treasure hunters about the vaults being haunted and that the treasure is ultimately cursed.


 * Many of his moves are named after mountains, like Everest and Aconcagua for example.


 * He is unable to feel the effects of electrocution as he is a golem, his skin and blood have earth element properties within his system, though a force of powerful lightning strong enough to leave a dent on him can still happen.


 * He's dealt with many tomb raiders with similar vein of athleticsim and strength compared to Lara Croft from Tomb Raider before.
 * If Halvard was part of the Monstrum Tower series, he'd be strong enough to fight Astolpho Le Chariot to a draw.
 * His walking animation is similar to that of Juggernaut in the Marvel Vs. series by Capcom.


 * He is not based on Aganos from Killer Instinct, the idea for a golem character has been within my mind for many years now.


 * There was a character I did for my Darkstalkers idea way back that Halvard has similarities with.
