Background

Born: November 24, 1992

Henry grew up in Raleigh, NC where his parents and sister remain. After graduating high school he moved to College Station, TX and attended the Texas A&M University on a partial rugby scholarship for two years while working at Home Depot. When he was offered a full scholarship by the University of Astoria's new rugby team he did not hesitate in accepting and made the move to Oregon.
Henry works part time as a waiter at the Wet Dog Cafe. He is a member and resident of the ATO fraternity house. His major is in mass communications with a minor in philosophy. When he's not attending to school, sports or at the gym, he is either hanging out with friends or can be found nestled in his bean bag playing video games or watching anime. In addition to rugby and wrestling, Henry also plays tennis, rides a Harley, knows how to repair it himself and plays the saxophone. He has a cat named R2.
Henry came out as gay during his first year of college. Other than a few dates and casual encounters he hasn't ever been in a relationship.
Henry is intent on enjoying his college years to the fullest, but while he loves to socialize and party, he is dedicated and passionate about rugby and by extension his schoolwork that he is required to maintain in order to continue playing on the team.

Personality

• Virtue: Valorous
  Some things need doing, even if the odds are not in your favor, they still need doing and you don't have time to sit around and hope someone else comes around to do it for you. Scary or not, if people need you, they need you now. This has gotten me in trouble a number of times, even landed me in the hospital once, but it's ALWAYS been worth it.
• Vice: Poor Anger Management
  I try to be a patient man and I always want to do good, be the upstanding citizen and do the right thing. I try and hide it, but it's so easy for people or situations to just push me too far and all I really want to do is smash something or punch someone. My hand may be sore, and I hate to admit it, but I always feel better when something or someone is broken or bleeding. I generally try and channel that energy into more productive things, which is how I got into rugby and wrestling. After four broken mobile phones, three suspensions due to fights, a restraining order and a wrecked car (his looked worse), my shrink suggested I find a more productive means for channeling my anger. It works on most days.
• Aspirations:
  • Make new friends.
  • Trounce a bully.
  • Become captain of the wrestling team.
• Integrity: 7

Breaking Points

• What is the worst thing your character has ever done?
  Intentionally caused injury in the heat of the moment. The Burger King manager made inappropriate comments about one of his friends. He punched the guy. He taunted Henry by continuing the line of inappropriate comments, so Henry put him in the hospital. Henry also lost his job.
• What is the worst thing your character can imagine himself doing?
  Intentionally killing someone in the heat of the moment. In the heat of the red rage, he can see it - so easy, it would be so fulfilling to just go a little further, make them stop whatever they were doing forever... But that would be terrible and inhuman. So he stops.
• What is the worst thing your character can imagine someone else doing?
  Premeditated murder. Planning to kill someone? That's cold. But he can see the logical path one would have to walk to reach that point.
• What has the character forgotten? Drunk and angry, he drove his Mom's SUV into an Arbys. He woke up a week later in a hospital with no memory of the entire incident, including the awful monster that he was aiming the SUV at in front of the Arbys.
• What is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to the character?
  After his third suspension (he punched a teacher - they genuinely deserved it) followed with a restraining order, he was nearly expelled, which would have cost him any chance of a scholarship and jeopardized his future dreams. Fortunately the principal, also his wrestling coach, was fond of him and a rugby fan, so he was barely able to charm his way out of it.

Friends and Family

Family

• Melissa Haddock Mulgrew: Mom
  Melissa works in customer support at an AT&T call center. She reads a great deal and has always allowed her children to pretty much do whatever they wanted to as long as they didn't get into serious trouble and left her alone when she got home from work. Her older sister Mary is frequently over with a bottle of bourbon for them to share and cackle like mad witches on the back deck.
• Ronald "Ron" Muldrew: Dad
  Ron is a environmental remediation specialist for BP Global and is usually only home for about one week every two or three months. When he is home, he usually watches the news and reads about tennis.
• Christina Mulgrew: Sister
  Chris is Henry's vegan, lesbian band and drama geek little sister. She is still in high school and has dreams that frequently shift between Hollywood and politics.

Friends

• The Padawan: Poor girl has no confidence in herself. Found myself playing the role of her knight in flannel and cargo shorts when she was being bullied by two skateboarding morons. She had a Rebel Alliance patch on her backpack, which immediately endeared me to help her in her plight. We've hung out since then and she's actually pretty amazing, she just can't seem to see it in herself. I call her Snips after Ahsoka Tano from Star Wars.
• Mama J: The Den Mother of the ATO fraternity house. She's extraordinarily chill, invested in the well being of the fraternity and its members and pragmatic. She knows boys are going to be boys, so she does what she can to make sure everyone will be safe in doing so, such as supplying us with quality drugs and booze rather than us endangering ourselves by pursuing it from questionable sources. She's the favorite aunt and best friends mom you always wished you had.
• Jace: Jace and I met just before term started and enjoyed each others company pretty thoroughly. When I ran into him again, he didn't seem the least bit interested, so I dismissed it as a one time thing (and initially him as a potential jerk). When we were assigned together as lab partners for a class, I was concerned that it was going to be awkward, but he's been pretty cool, so I'm content to leave our back story as a brief, but enjoyable anecdote and just be buddies.

Classmates

• The Rival: He thinks he's got what it takes to be captain of the wrestling team. He's good, but he's not as good as I am.

Lifestyle

A description of your characters day to day life.

• Money: His scholarship pays for all of his tuition, his housing and meal plans. He works part time in order to have extra money for things like beer, pot and video games.
• Clothing & Jewelry: When it's warm he usually wears cargo or gym shorts with sport jerseys, tank tops or tee shirts and flip-flops. When it's cold, he usually wears jeans or sweats instead of shorts with a hoodie or jacket and shoes. As for jewelry, he wears a heavy gold chain around his neck, his class ring, bright red Swatch watch, fitbit and a Naruto silicon bracelet. He has a Sagittarius sign tattoo on his right forearm.
• Communication: He prefers text messages over calling, his family back home are the same.
• Food: He primarily lives off of coffee, protein shakes, beer, pizza and beef jerky.
• Housing: A small room to himself at the ATO fraternity house that he has liberally decorated with anime, video game, tennis and rugby posters and paraphernalia. His only furniture is a futon, bean bag chair, entertainment stand crammed full of console systems, his television and a rather large and elaborate cat tower.
• Days: A typical weekday usually goes something like this: breakfast, class, jog, class, lunch, class, gym or tennis, rugby/wrestling practice (depending on season). Swap out class for tv and video games or going out on weekends. He has no classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays freeing up that time for other pursuits (or lack of them as the case may be).
• Evenings: On a typical weekday evening he either works and does homework when he gets home before crashing, otherwise it's beer, homework, bong, dinner with beer, more beer plus tv and video games or time with friends until he crashes. Weekend evenings follow similar routines depending on whether or not he's working.
