{{quote|This is our lot, son. To be lord of a house requires certain sacrifices.|Lord Harms to Waxillium{{book ref|mb4|4}}}}
Lord Harms is a rather fat man
It seems
== History ==
{{quote|I care nothing for the money or jewelry [[Vanishers|they]] took from me. It can be replaced, and most of it was insured anyway. But I’ll pay any price for [[Steris]]. Please. She is to be your fiancée! You have to find her!|Lord Harms to Waxillium{{book ref|mb4|6}}}}
=== Early Life ===
Very little is known about Lord Harms' early life. At some point during his youth, he was married to a woman with a rather harsh and cold personality
When it became apparent that Marasi was a [[Pulser]], Lord Harms insisted that she keep the ability quiet.{{book ref|mb4|11}}{{book ref|mb4|14}} He claimed that being an [[Allomancer]] was unseemly, but in truth he did not want Marasi
=== Dealings with House Ladrian ===
Several months after his return from the [[Roughs]], High Lord [[Waxillium Ladrian]] approached Lord Harms about the possibility of marriage to his daughter Steris.{{book ref|mb4|2}}
While attending the wedding dinner, Lord Harms sat at a table with Wax, Steris, and Marasi.{{book ref|mb4|4}} They conversed
After the firefight in which Wax and Wayne managed to rescue Marasi but not Steris, Lord Harms seemed stunned by Steris' kidnapping.{{book ref|mb4|6}} He was terrified for her and begged Wax to find her, totally abandoning his previously condescending attitude towards Wax. He then left the party to sit in his carriage until Marasi wanted to leave
== Relationship with Daughters ==
Lord Harms has a rather interesting relationship with his daughters. Steris is very similar in temperament to Lord Harms' late wife, who it is implied
His relationship with Marasi however, is far less positive. Years after her birth, Lord Harms still treats her as an embarrassment that needs to be covered up and placed well out of sight, even around those unaware that she is his daughter.{{book ref|mb4|2}}{{book ref|mb4|4}} Lord Harms is dismissive towards Marasi,{{book ref|mb4|4}} sometimes to the point of foolishness.{{book ref|mb4|11}} He actively seeks to keep her quiet about her interests and studies at the university.{{book ref|mb4|4}} Lord Harms also insists that Marasi keep her powers and her parentage a secret.{{book ref|mb4|11}} There is a bitterness to their relationship that cannot be ignored.{{book ref|mb4|14}}
