History Creator / AdamHowden

Adam Howden (born 1 July 1983) is a British voice actor who has also appeared in several live action shows.

2011 was a fantastic year for Howden, who was relatively unknown until he landed his StarMakingRole as Anders in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII''. Only months after its release, it was announced that he would be playing the protagonist of ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'', as well as the titular character in the game of the movie ''[[Franchise/{{Tintin}} The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn]]''. He also attended the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_MCM_Expo London MCM Expo]] in October 2011 alongside ''Dragon Age II'' co-star Creator/GideonEmery, where they made history being the first British guest voice actor panelists at the convention. During the end of the year, he starred in the production of ''[[http://www.custompractice.co.uk/the-malcontent-winter-2011/ The Malcontent]]'' at the White Bear Theatre in London.

Outside of acting, Adam Howden is known for his outspoken nature and penchant for ToiletHumor on [[http://twitter.com/#!/A_HOWDZ Twitter]], where he has acquired many devoted fans -- most of which [[EstrogenBrigade happen to be female]].
