Hank Hazzard

Hank is the third character seen in Block Saga, and was the second encountered (as Jeremy spoke to him over the radio before his introduction). He is the leader of the resistance, an organization meant to stamp out the Dark Forces of Evil. He is very serious when it comes to his duties, although he has trouble accepting others' mortality. He is bald, and always wears a tan fedora. He has the coolest mustache in the entire world. His associated color is blue.

Upgrading
Hank's special ability is "upgrade". Hank can select any item and upgrade it to a higher form, provided he has enough upgrade money. He can also downgrade the item to a less powerful version, and gain some upgrade money to spend on other items.

Bizarrely, Hank is capable of upgrading or downgrading even living things or very least himself and corpses. He briefly downgraded himself to a skeleton, until he had enough upgrade money to upgrade self to a Warrior tier. Much to his disappointment, he can't wear his fedora anymore because the tier came with a hood that seemingly can't be removed. Hank gave his fedora to Jack then and made him swear to keep it guard it with his life.

Upgrade money is an in-game form of currenct that is used by Hank to upgrade and downgrade items. There are six forms of upgrade money: Blue Bucks, Red Riches, Brown Bills, Black Banknotes, White Wealth, and Silver Salary. These forms of currency can be converted from one into the other. Upgrade money can be gained, besides through downgrading an item, by killing enemies and collecting their drops.
