Calcifer

"Howl: You didn't have to come back, Calcifer."

- Here's another curse for you - may all your bacon burn. """Calcifer: I kinda missed you guys... and it looks like it's gonna rain."

"[after Sophie puts a pan and bacon on Calcifer] Here's another curse for you - may all your bacon burn." Calcifer is a fire demon in ''Howl's Moving Castle. ''Calcifer is voiced by Tatsuya Gashuin in Japanese and by Billy Crystal in English.

Appearance
Calcifier is a brand of fire with eyes and a mouth. He is usually orangey-yellow in colour but this appears to change with his emotions and size. Calcifier's size also changes depending on the type and amount of fuel he is running on.

Personality
He's rather unfriendly towards Sophie at the start of the movie, but grows to like her, since she put logs closer to his reach and seemed to be able to keep Howl in line for a bit. He also made a bargain with Sophie that he would try and break her curse, if she would break his, but he could only give her hints.
