There’s a strange barcode tattoo on the base of his neck that not many people get to see clearly.
Costume has a basic skin tight suit under a light layer of armor. Has a hood with a jagged shape on the rim. Its primarily dark colors, with silver armor plates. It's all just flash, since in fights he’ll be primarily in his Breaker state.>

His changer form has an exoskeleton with Level III ballistic protection, though gunshots are still painful and cause bruising underneath. Stab/slash resistance is on par with fine chainmail mesh. Changer form weighs about 1051lbs.
Possesses significant strength, able to strike, slash, and lift about as well as a Grizzly bear (max he can lift is 1102lbs). And after building up speed can reach straight spring at about 31mph at maximum, excelling at climbing and parkour, as his claws allow great traction even on vertical surfaces, so long as the structure can support his weight.
Howler is capable of smelling as well as a Bloodhound, Seeing as well as a dragonfly, and hearing as well as a moth. With Howler retaining these senses even outside his changer form.
Howler's changer form has organs in its chest that generate a billowing cloud of a gas that extends about two (2) to eight (8) feet from its body. This gas is breathable like oxygen. And has three (3) modes that can be toggled at will by Howler.
Mode 1: Translucent as standard oxygen.
Mode 2: Thick and black like smoke from a tire fire.
Mode 3: Translucent as standard oxygen, but hides living organisms and any held equipment. Making Howler himself Invisible, but with very slight movement distortions (Not unlike the antagonist in the 1987 film ’Predator’.) With the distortions being far far more noticeable with people other than Howler, but still of some use when standing still or moving slowly.
Going into breaker state takes Howler around a few seconds. Toggling modes is instant, but it takes a second for the gas to change.
Eyes, Teeth and claws can glow various colors, toggled on or off, separately from the fog toggle.
Any clothing Howler wears warps into the exoskeleton of the breaker state. Body armor only provides a thin layer of support compared to the breaker state’s natural armor.
While the naked eye can potentially detect minor movement distortions, ultraviolet cameras can more easily spot these distortions and ripples, with sensitive motion sensors doing the same. The gas has a faint copper taste to those breathing it.
Anything that could blow away thick fog like a large turbine or strong winds can also blow away the gas in all 3 modes.
He cannot communicate normally within the breaker state. His voice comes out as hollow wails and bellows. He can concentrate on making it sound like a voice, although it comes out echoing and erie.
Backstory
Life for Jason was always average. Everyday is another near death experience, cape fights, criminals, and even the yearly Endbringer appearance that has hit him twice in his life. His only help has been his long time best friend, they’ve gone through it all together. Survived.
For a few years now the two haven’t been connected, so when Jason decided to try to reconnect with his friend, he couldn’t really find his friend. Something found him, though. Through constant searching on the web for his friend and even curious searching for power, he ended up getting a call from DeepDIVE.
Months of strange favors and jobs, became years of morally questionable actions. Eventually, Jason got to the final step, getting a power for a sacrifice. His journey started with trying to find his friend, so he sacrifices that goal. His curiosity and memories of ever having anyone support him has gone. Now it's just a drive for survival.
