Obidiah Hakeswill

 was a Morningstar Miner in 2241.

Background
A tall man a huge, misshapen belly, Hakeswill also had jaundiced skin and a scar ringing his neck. He was a psychopath, with no regard for social norms, often beating up other miners and generally aggravating Dan McGrew. He became a criminal when he cut up the face of a Malamute Saloon prostitute, in revenge for, as he stated, "[making] fun o' me Mum".

He was eventually tracked down by the authorities and, after a brief trial, hung.

Interactions with the player character
Hakeswill is the perpetrator the Chosen One is looking for in the Find out who cut the whore quest Sheriff Earl Marion gives. He will come along peacefully, although he can be also shot on the spot, much to the dismay of the Sheriff.
