VOICING HOWARD

His voice is full of ominous intention and a tone of manipulation is very prominent.  There is a sinister charisma about him, almost too nice and spritey. He can sound sappily sweet with his words while his intentions are entirely shielded by this false nature. Occasionally he can dip into darker , menacing tones.
