Birth Day: 10/31
Arcana: Death
Place of Residence: Sunlake Palms
Academy Semester: N/A
Class: N/A
Sorority: N/A
Part/Full Time Job: Coroner and Pathologist.
Appearance: A pale skinned, skinny, yet surprisingly strong young man with light grey hair, Henry typically wears a black business suit with black pants, black shoes, and a red tie. At his job, on the other hand, he wears typical surgical gear for hygienic reasons. When asked as to whether he dyes his hair, he simply says that he doesn't, he was born with it. His eyes also seem perpetually shut, for some reason (he claims they're a nice shade of dark brown, like that of an oak coffin). He weighs about 130 lb., and is 5ft.11 in.
This is what he looks like:
http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/fireemblem/images/8/85/Henry_(FE13_Artwork).png/revision/latest?cb=20130502181145Personality: Even by PT standards, Henry is... unique.
The fact that he's cheerful to the point of being naive wouldn't be it... except he never stops smiling (unless panicked), and practically every third word out of his mouth tends to be related to death in some way. All his hobbies have to do with death, he likes horror movies (he enjoys german ones particularly well for all their gore)... you get the idea. He tends to make jokes, and puns that are blackly comedic. However, this also tends to scare people, and he doesn't really seem to realize this. Animals seem to love him though, and he likes animals, so they tend to gather around him (particularly crows, and he believes that the reason why so many crows hang around his house, yet his garden remains perfectly intact is because they don't wanna offend him).
He is considered unpredictable at best, and downright a necessary evil at worst by others, especially on the battlefield, where he shows next to no mercy for his enemies, and is more than happy to be on the front lines to pretty much annihilate all enemies in his way. However, off the battlefield, he is surprisingly kind, and likes helping others (albeit, in his own... special way). He also does have a unique code of honor (he will not hesitate to kill, but will always try to make it as painless as possible, for example). He also seems to understand, however, that what he does isn't exactly... glamorous, but the way he sees it, so long as it helps the people he wants to help, no harm done.
He has an innate fascination with wanting to die a bloody death for reasons he... doesn't quite understand. (According to one of his psychologists later on in life, he has trouble fully grasping his emotions after years of physical and possibly mental/emotional abuse, thus, he doesn't quite understand his suicidal urges.) Because he doesn't understand it, he won't do it...
Yeah... he thinks... differently.
Go figure.
The Potential
Strengths: (Anything your character is skilled in, such as Martial Arts/ Drawing/ etc? You are allowed a maximum of five strengths and a minimum of three.)
—Strength Name: "You know how Sherlock Holmes has that thing with his scan? Well, I can do that too!.... kinda. It's because i'm a coroner AND a pathologist. So I know a fair bit about human anatomy, you see."
—Description: Like how Sherlock Holmes can tell things about a person with only a glance, Henry can do the same. With a corpse that has only recently (read: 24 hours) expired, he can find out details (at the DM's discretion) about it that are about the human body anatomy (i.e: What kind of damage has been done, but not what killed them). With the use of a lab, he can find further details about the body (or these details if the corpse date is any older), but without additional help, he can't find out things like where it occurred, or what time of day it was when it happened (nor can he identify anything of supernatural origin). He calls this ability his "Deadlock Scan".
—Strength Name: "What, this wound? Oh, don't worry about it- wait, it's THAT bad? Ah geez. Chalk it up to my genetic high pain tolerance ... and don't question any further... unless you wanna be on my table next..."
—Description: As a result of his abusive child, and his parent's constant heavy beatings on him, his sensory nerves have been severely damaged, meaning he can't feel physical pain as much. (This has no effect in PvS combat).
—Strength Name:"Don't worry. I know how to make this quick and painless... just hold still and it'll be nighty-night."
—Description: Henry can make two Dex attacks on enemies in one post with his soul bound.

((A floating Strength is a strength you've gained inRP. For example, if you were on a Kendo team for some time, you'd naturally know Kendo which is where this strength would come in. However, be aware, it will not be as strong as any of your actual strengths and is a small plus)

—Description:
Weaknesses: (You must have the same amount of weaknesses as strengths. These weaknesses pertain to you and not your Persona. IE: Physically Weaker, lack of attention span, etc.)
—Weakness Name: "Is it just me, or do people seem to avoid me? I don't know why... I'm a perfectly decent human being!"
—Description: Due to Henry's... unique personality, he has trouble ranking up his expression(In other words, any amount of expression points he earns are halved.).
—Weakness Name: "Oh... my heart? Yeah, it's abnormally low. Bare healthy minimum at it's highest and lowest, in fact. So, I uh... can't really push myself. Don't ask me why. All they said was that it was for medical reasons."
—Description: Due to Henry's unique heart condition, he can't enter battle if his HP is 10% or less (This takes place once he's outside of the battle that resulted in his HP being reduced to 10% or less at the end of it), and if he has to enter combat (for whatever non-optional reason), he is unable to do anything other than pass his turn until his HP is restored past 10% or more (and it must stay this way until the end of the battle in order to once again re-enter combat willingly).
—Weakness Name: "I... um... how do I put this? I tend to get excited about blood very, very, easily. Once I get going... I can't stop."
—Description: Once Henry does damage to an enemy, he cannot flee without the use of an item, or the use of a teammate's skill (A teammate with a s-link of 3 or higher can roll 1d2 to convince Henry to flee, succeeding on a two).

The Background:
History:
Henry is, by all accounts, a cheerful person. Extremely cheerful, he never stops smiling.
How ironic that a man who smiles constantly has such a sad and brutal past.
Born into a family of well-respected coroners, his father was a well known coroner known for his detailed autopsy's, while his mother ran a funeral home, thus, he was surrounded by death.
Henry also, from a early age, showed great talent in doing what his parents did, something that they both admired... and feared.
You see, his birth was... unusual in a lot of ways.
The day it happened, his mother nearly suffered a miscarriage in an accident, and on Halloween, he was born as Endymion's youngest premature birth survivor as the product of a pregnancy exactly 24 weeks in, at exactly 13 seconds after 1:13 P.M.
He was also known for having nearly died when he nearly choked on the umbilical cord, and that he has a naturally low heart rate (The bare healthy minimum and maximum heart rate through out his life so far), which means that he had to be examined by a cardiologist each week to make sure that he was still healthy enough to function in regular society).
As a result of that, and other... incidents when he was young (his first word was "Death.", for one thing), he was feared mostly because of his... unusual personality. This resulted in more than a few complaints from angry parents who claimed that (abridged) "Henry has traumatized my child for life." This hit a peak in an incident where more than a few children were scarred for life when Henry brought one of his father's old autopsy reports for show and tell one day. One of the... gorier ones.
At that point, life for him became... hell.
His parents would brutally beat him constantly, and he was only able to graduate from high school because of his perfect scores on an academic level as he would seldom show up to school because of his injuries (and when he did show up, he was taught one-on-one by a special instructor in a ISS room at his parents requests). (His parents couldn't arrange for a tutor due to his reputation, his last 6 psychologists had given up trying to "cure" him, and they couldn't homeschool him as the result of their jobs).
And yet, he still kept smiling. Not once did he cry.
This kept on going until he moved out when he got to medical school, and then exactly 5 years ago, on the day of the great divide, where his parents were lost that day when they left the house that night to go get errands. He didn't even know what happened (he hadn't seen a single demon that night) until someone told him. and inherited their large fortune. Now a licensed coroner and pathologist, he graduated from Endymion's best Medical School at the top of his class.
His hobbies include all things supernatural, playing a popular online game where he and 3 others (one of them is also Takeru) team up to form one of the most powerful forces there online, reading (particularly works by H.P Lovecraft, and other prominent writers of that sort), dancing (It was one of his few "normal" hobbies), and playing the violin (also which he has done since a young age).
He also has a pet, an albino crow he had found the day after the great divide, and took in, that seems to like him, and (somehow) follows him everywhere at home. He named it Shirokarasu (Translation is White Crow, I believe), a variation of the name of yatagarasu. The bird itself is unusually quiet, only cawing whenever its master leaves... or whenever a new corpse comes in for his master to examine.
He really doesn't care about what side he's on so long as they give him access to those classified records of all the deaths that occured during the great divide, and give him an answer as to why more and more corpses seem to have injuries of a supernatural origin (and why nobody tells him why). That's why joined the cadets as a result.
Yeah...
Says how much he loves his job, doesn't it?
