He puts his own life in jeopardy for Calcifer and turns out to be a thoroughly decent man at the end of the day.
Ad as well as good and does not want that to happen which is why he is anxious for the contract between himself and Calcifer to be broken. Howl is aware that his magic can be used for. He is a womanizer and tends to like the chase more than the capture of the female in question's heart, Sophie being the only girl he remains interested in. As Wizard Howl he is rather timid and not entirely happy about becoming the King's Magician but he is an honorable person and does what he has been paid for. He graduated from university with a good degree in witchcraft and went on to become a wizard working in a magical land from which he could still come and go. Welshman Howell Jenkins (also known by the more magical last name of Pendragon) comes from a pleasant and normal family on the Wales-England border and in the earthly world is a good uncle and frustrating brother. Sophie is a character whose happy ending is well-deserved and appreciated by the reader. She is a loyal family member and loves her sisters although she has judged her stepmother harshly and tried to make amends for that. Sophie is in love with Howl even if she won't admit it. She is essentially very nice, sweetly helping the trapped dog and the broken scarecrow, but her niceness also causes a problem if not-niceness is actually required, such as when she lets Miss Angorian into the house in an effort to prove she is too nice to be jealous of Howl's interest in her. She is defiant though, and sets out to seek her fortune not as a pretty young girl but as a creaky old crone after the Witch of the Waste has cursed her.
Sophie is the protagonist of the novel and has lots of ambitious ideas that she puts to the back of her mind because she is the eldest of the three Hatter sisters and knows the eldest is always destined for.nothing at all.
