Name/Nicknames: Henning Maddirish/ Henning the Grim
Race: Undead
Age: 796
Appearance:
A slender, dark-haired man, Henning has gaunt features, and slim sunken eyes. A few days’ worth of stubble covers his narrow chin, and his deathly flesh has an aura of the necrotic about it. He is well-groomed and carries himself proudly, with a straight back and firm stance. There is an air of regality to the Lithuanian, and he has a voice which bears a light Eastern European accent.
Personality: Henning is a calm, calculating figure, with cruel efficiency and a dark witt. He has long ago cast off the shackles of a conscience, and is prepared to take any measure to achieve his objective. While he takes no pleasure in torturing others, Henning has no objections to commuting countless acts of, what he would consider to be, Necessary Evil in order to come out victorious in the end.
Bio: Born Hanigaris of the House Mindaugas, Henning Maddirish was the Grand Duke of Lithuania for a decade during the 1200’s. A stern and black-hearted ruler, Hanigaris was unsympathetic and iron fisted in his governing of the Grand Duchy, inspiring fear in both his enemies and subjects alike.
Consorting with a cabal of powerful yet mysterious foreigners, Henning began studying Necromancy under the dark gaze of the Pale Circle, which unlocked his immense arcane potential, and thorough understanding of the forbidden magic.
It was his ruthless efficiency that helped repel the Mongol Invaders from his homeland, but it was that same brutality which planted him on the end of an assassin’s blade just ten years into his reign.
Henning awoke sometime later, his body having been preserved in a state of undeath by his own dark powers, making him in to a potent Lich. It was not long into his resurrection that Henning drew the attention of the Pale Circle, who forcibly whisked him away to their hidden strong hold, seeking to use his powers for their own gains.
Whilst he initially resisted their dominion, Henning saw that there was power to be gained in working with the Pale Circle, and began his training as one of their field agents. Adopting a new persona, and casting off his old life, Henning has spent countless years working for the necromantic order, slowly climbing up its dark and dangerous hierarchy. Henning holds great sway within the circle, and its current masters have grown fearful that he might attempt a takeover any day now.
Wanting to get Henning as far away as possible, the Grand Council of the Pale Circle have dispatched the Henning on a suicide mission to Santa Somabra, to destroy their wayward former servant: The Canoness. The Pale Circle do not expect Henning to survive, and he intends to prove them wrong.
Other: Henning is a Lich, and as such possesses potent necromantic powers. He can raise the dead, and force wayward souls to do his bidding.
