Hell, I'm surprised. I would've expected some monstrous munchie beast, but
he's quite alright. Very, very skillfull, able to handle himself well in a
fight, and can deck with the best of 'em (which is to be expected, after 8
years). Haze was only 4-5 years old, and frankly, he was faster/stronger,
but didn't have half the skills Bull the PC has.

Hats off Bull, you managed to keep your character humble through 8 years.
Not many people can say that.
