Origin[]
Orion Perseus Howe was a Union drummer boy during the Civil War. Under the command of Colonel Oscar Malmborg, he volunteered to bring in more cartridges for the weapons. However, Malmborg asked for the wrong caliber and Howe was badly shot while on the battlefield. For his bravery under fire, he was awarded the Medal of Honor at the United States Naval Academy.
Effects[]
The drum is activated when the player wielding it is following somebody else’s demands. They will become intangible during that time as long as they match the drumbeat to their footsteps. If they falter, the closest gun in the area will fire towards them and shoot the player.
