Haakon
A powerful knight brought back from the dead by Heidar, Rimewind Master, as an ally to battle against the Kjeldoran and Balduvian armies. Heidar used the frozen corpses from the Frost Marsh to assemble Haakon an undead army that would serve to conquer Terisiare along with Heidar's Rimewind Cult and Garza Zol's forces. Haakon and Garza both began to doubt Heidar's mental stability when they witnessed him personally execute Lovisa Coldeyes.
Haddad
Kipamu soldier. Captured during a battle with the Keldons in the Nakay Swamp and forced into Latulla's personal entourage, most of the Prophecy story is told from his perspective. Frequent plaything of Greel. Haddad is eventually killed for sabotaging a war machine during Latulla's final offensive. (Prophecy)
Hakim Loreweaver
A male member of the Suq’Ata. He was Jamuura’s greatest storyteller, and rode a tame blue Drake. He had a huge collection of magical trinkets and was never without some kind of magical enchantment placed upon himself. Hakim met with Asmira the Prophet, Rashida Scalebane and Sidar Jabari near the Zhalfirin capital Kipamu. Driven by dreams, none of them knew why they were there - except for Asmira. She explained that destiny was driving them to rescue Mangara, who was held in enchanted amber in a palace deep in the Mwonvuli Jungle. Rashida formed an elite guard for the rescue mission with Asmira as the guard’s guide, while Jabari and Hakim set about creating a sufficient distraction. Hakim kept the citizens’ spirits up by telling tales of ancient wonders; finally he began a new tale, of how the inhabitants of a city escaped a siege - a tale not even he had heard before, a tale rooted in a dream sent by Teferi. The tale wove a spell that caused the creatures besieging the city to vanish completely at dusk, they phased out. Hakim and Jabari told the gathered people to flee. It was revealed in Time Spiral that Hakim was Teferi's teacher for a time.(Mirage)

Hanna
An Argivian archeologist and artificer. The Weatherlight’s archivist and navigator. The daughter of the ancient wizards Barrin and Rayne, Hanna was educated at the Argivian University where she learned much about the uses of artifacts. This choice to study artifice over magic led to a falling-out between her and her father. She brought her talents to the Weatherlight and began to develop a romantic relationship with Gerrard. That relationship ended abruptly when Gerrard left the ship, and although she felt betrayed, his return rekindled her interest in him. Hanna reluctantly suggested her estranged father as capable to planeshift the Weatherlight to Rath. After arriving in Rath and the attack of the Predator, the crippled Weatherlight lands in Skyshroud to begin repairs. Hanna and Mirri head off in search for Gerrard, who has fallen overboard. Soon Hanna and Mirri are noted and pursued by the Skyshroud Elves on their warhounds. Then Mirri is attacked by a shapeshifter, but Hanna kills it. After that they are taken prisoner by the elves. Gerrard explains his mission and convinces the Elf Lord Eladamri to free Hanna and Mirri. Hanna died during the Invasion from Phyrexian plague. She was buried at Koilos, but was exhumed by Barrin and re-interred alongside Rayne on Tolaria.
