Horace

Horace is a boar that lives in the north. He is extremely powerful, being able to shape even the toughest earth with his mighty hooves.

He protects the world from some of the most fearsome monsters imaginable, such as Baba Yaga, goblins, and the Wendigo.

Appearance
Horace appears as a large bristly boar. His fur is dark brown, parting only at his face. He is also usually sprinkled with a generous coating of snow.

Personality
Despite his tough and bristly exterior, Horace is a skilled poet. He writes about everything from climate diversity to his duties as a boar, all while managing to keep a constant iambic meter.

Horace is also generally very kind to the human beings whom interact with him on his blog.

Relationships
Horace has an ongoing rivalry with Elmer. This is due to the monkey's attitude towards Horace; such as insulting his girth, criticizing his maize harvest, and even going so far as to threaten to revoke the boar's fief. The two have gone back and forth several times, and they view each other as rivals. Elmer has once asked Horace to climb into his oven, to which he originally agrees before seemingly realizing that Elmer planned to eat him.

At the end of the Great Ages of Digging and Playing, Horace came out of a valley shaped by Seymour.
