He is subdued, sad, naturally weary, prone to tears, anxious, slightly paranoid, and has strong suicidal tendencies. He suffers from severe depression that leaves him in a state of constant distress, though if you happen to see him walking along the street with his black umbrella, he appears quite gentle.
He easily forgets what he has said, and might even repeat it up to three times if no one points it out to him. He tends to speak quickly, with a tremor and a sense of hesitation in his voice; he appears anxiously nervous and is prone to self-deprecation.
He wants to cure his depression. He has tried every method, but he never realized that all he was seeking was to be loved—and to stop feeling as though he owes everything to everyone.
Henrik belonged to a lineage of vampires—a well-organized group with ties to humans—that also included merfolk from pristine lakes and sorcerers. While the merfolk typically worked in construction and the sorcerers pursued academic or healthcare-related careers, vampires were expected to be successful; they were considered the most fit to rule and were required to embody perfection. Henrik, however, lacked this perfection—a shortcoming that led his father to constantly seek ways to be rid of him. In one such attempt, his father accidentally killed his own wife—who had stepped in to defend their son—before taking his own life. Henrik witnessed both events as a child. Plagued by deep depression throughout his life, Henrik eventually moved to Gutterhold Cove, hoping to put an end to everything. He is the most attractive individual in Gutterhold Cove. (Henrik is 104 years old and looks young)
