Geese Howard, the crime lord of South Town is a terrifying figure that makes powerful men shiver just by hearing his name. His reach and control touches on all aspects of the American city of south Town. Politics, mob, police, Geese Howard controls it all. But seeing his current life and destruction might make many forget his humble and tragic beginnings. Let’s delve into the psyche and the past of geese Howard and see how the young poor boy from the slums of south town will grow up to be a terror and a powerful warrior the world might not know the likes of him.

Geese Howard’s beginning starts In the slums of South Town, As the only child of a single poor and sick mother, young geese learned from the early age that life is not easy and nothing is without a price. As his poor mother’s health deteriorated from over working to feed her fatherless child, young geese had no choice but to work difficult jobs at an incredibly early age. Finding any job that would pay enough to feed himself and his mother and to be able to buy her medicine. But even with all his hard work, Geese’s mother succumbed to her illness and died.

Shocked, angered, and lost, Geese Howard’s sadness turned into hatred towards the world, and towards his unknown father. He quickly worked day and night with the information he was able to get to find out the identity of his father. Rudolph Krauser Von Stroheim. A truth that shocked Geese to his core. How could his father, an Austrian terrorist turned royalty leave his sick wife and child and start a new family in Germany. How could a rich man leave his wife to death and his child to rot in poverty.

Pulling from all the resources he could find, a 9-year-old geese made his way to Germany, to Stroheim castle. With only one goal, to kill the man responsible for his and his mother’s suffering, to kill his father.

As he made his way to the castle, he saw his father, and lunged to assassinate him. But was stopped by another young kid, Rudolph’s second son and geese’s half brother Worfgang Krauser. And right there, the first battle between the eternal enemies begun, Geese Howard fights his half brother krauser right before their father’s eyes. But Geese was no match for the young yet strong wolfgang. Defeated, Geese waited for the final blow, to end his miserable young life. But just as Krauser was about to strike with his finishing blow, their father intervened and stopped him. Geese was thrown out of the castle and left humiliated and lost. Upon his return to south town Geese Howard looked for peace and answers to his suffering. He would try religion for a while, yet he still feels empty and unfulfilled. Believing that only power can truly bring true opportunity, the young Geese would decide to follow a path of martial arts training. He would seek known martial artists and trains with them, these included the unnamed blue Mary father as well as Toji Sakata. He would then seek an old and legendary master: Tung Fu Rue, to train in the art of Hakkyokuseiken.

After being accepted as a Tung student, Geese would find the closest to a new family. His training partner and new friend Jeff Bogard. The two would live with Tung and train for years, along a third student, Cheng Sin Zan. But Cheng would leave shortly to pursue a business career.

Yet the peace was short lived. As time goes by, Geese would grow more power hungry. He believed it was time he fixes the city that was so harsh to him. And to he believed that to do so he will need to control the criminal underworld. Upon feeling the ill intent, Tung Fue Rue decided to not show the final technique of the hakyokuseiken to Geese and would only reveal it to Jeff Bogard. Angered by this decision, Geese curses the 2 men he once saw as family and left the Dojo, with a massive grudge and hatred towards Jeff Bogard.

Geese would then starts making his way through the criminal underworld and bit by bit would control and take turfs from mob bosses. He would eventually hires two trusted body guards, Ripper and hopper, and set his eye on overthrowing the kingpin of south town Mr Big. This would not take him a long time, and Geese would find himself as the crime lord of south Town. He would use the mob money to build his own business and the infamous Geese tower, which would be the headquarters for his eventual multi million company the Howard connection.

But even with all of this, Geese’s thirst for power is never quenched. He soon would act on his hatred for Jeff Bogard, and jealousy for not being chosen to inherit the final technique of the Hakkyokuseiken. He would track Jeff, who now has two adopted children, Terry and Andy. Ruthless as he became, Geese would challenge Jeff to a final battle. The fight was fierce as the two fighters, once considered brothers now hate each other. Ultimately geese would win and, in cold blood, murders jeff in front of his children.

Little by little Geese Howard’s influence would touch all aspect of south town, from underworld crime to politics. For 10 years geese’s rule would almost go unchallenged, but all will change when he decides to announce a new tournament the King Of Fighters fighting tournament. And soon enough he would face the wrath of the lone wolf!
