As Jordan was introducing himself and his Arm La Longue Carabine Henry couldn't help and take in the beauty of Jordan's Arm. Henry has never liked how his Arm looked exactly, He thought of them as excessively bulky. But he couldn't say he didn't like the abilities they gave. A good bit of versatility as an close-quarter combatant mixed with a few nifty support options for himself and his allies.
As Jordan finished his introduction Henry spoke up to introduce himself, "Pleased to meet the both of you, I'm Henry Durand and I was born and raised in Worms, Germany. My noble arm is Jahreszeiten Wechseln." Henry summons his gauntlets with a dark yellow crystal embedded into the gauntlets, they had a bronze finish to the metal. "Jahreszeiten Wechseln is meant for close combat but for this I am going to do my best to use it's more defensive ability to defend the senators. Just need some prep to get it going. I would love it you guys would help me with that, I'll tell you more about it later." After addressing the group Henry turns to Oscar, "So, what can the Sword of truth do?"
Henry just stood there in silence, waiting for hopefully one of the other people in the email or the teacher. Henry got nervous suddenly when he realized he doesn't know the other two people that would be coming. Oh God, what if they know me? There is so many people here I haven't learned that many peoples name. Mostly people around my own rank to start. Please don't know me. Almost as soon a these thoughts had left, leaving behind a slight uneasiness, The silence broke.
"Oh hey Henry! Hey do you have any idea of why we are here?"
Henry Turned to see who it was that called out to him, Hopeful that it was one of the few people that he has registered into his memory. Fuck Henry thought as he stared at the guy. I'll play it off cool and just answer the question I'll probably find out from the teacher. I hope, "Sorry, I really don't know what we are here for either. It's nice to know I was not the only one to show up though."
Just as Henry got done with answering the other guy a new voice entered the room.
"Oscar Helgrem and Henry Durand right? I'm Jordan Quinn, any idea what is going on? It's kinda strange. What the hell is this all about exactly? Why would the three of us be called here?"
I recognize him! Henry was relieved only for a moment until Mr. Cinter had broken into the Gym. After some introductions Henry now knows that The guys name is Oscar. Sword of Truth sounds cool. Well I knew I was was going to accept this from the start but hey now I really want to join this. I waited for Jordan to finish what he was saying. "I will be joining. Jahreszeiten Wechseln and I will protect the two senators." Henry's job was serious so he will treat it as such.
Along Henry's jog he decided to postpone his look for Virgil, searching for water. Henry found a fountain and began to gulp water down until his stomach was near full. "I should really buy a water jug to take with me" Henry proclaimed as he took a seat waiting for his body to settle.
Henry began to switch from sitting on the grass to laying down, laying his arms behind his head and crossing his left leg over his right. The warming sun made Henry's muscles loosened up. It was peaceful enough for him to fall asleep. He began to imagine his favorite spot back in Worm where he would rest post workout.
Just as he was truly relaxing, he was brought back to reality by a notification on his phone. That is enough of a break. Henry sat up and looked at his phone. He was expecting a message from maybe his mother, she has always been a worrywart. Much to his surprise it's a group email. Henry read it somewhat quickly. He got what he needed to know. Honestly he was excited, if he does a good enough job of whatever this is then it will help him move up the ranks. Having felt the need to start by making a good impression he jogged to the gym to save time. The entire time he had a noticeable smile. As he got to gym office no one was there. He just stood there anticipating what this might be.
Henry usually focused on his running when he was exercising but today was a different. He had 2 thoughts that kept running through his mind. Swimming and learning Filipino. His run would randomly stop as he would just end up looking towards the pool thinking that would be such nice exercise. Mix that with his halfhearted attempt at practicing greetings led to a bit of an awkward spectacle.
Eventually, Henry finished his run and took seat under a tree to rest a bit and try to clear his thought. I guess I'll try to take care of the things I can. Henry hops up onto his feet then leaps to a sturdy tree branch and begins to do one armed pull ups, switching off every 20. Okay, so Virgil Vazquez is the one renting the pool right now. I could just go ahead and ask him if i could use the pool. I even heard he has been letting normal people in! Wait wait, What if it's a trap to get more cronies? Do I mind being one of his goons. Henry switches from pull ups to upside down crunches. I mean if he is a upstanding guy I don't think it would be that bad. He hops off when he is done and decides to go and talk to him. the best way to figure things out is to be direct. The problem is he has no idea where Virgil is. Henry just decides to jog around until he finds him.
The Gauntlets are on both arms and the crystal's color changes on which season is in use. Green for Spring, Red for Summer, Yellow for Autumn, and Blue for Winter. To change the seasons you need to charge up for 4 minutes then choose the next season. If you do not choose you miss your chance and you have to wait another 4 minutes to change.
Lively Spring- .Jahreszeiten Wechseln changes to a vibrant green as you summon Spring. Lively Spring can be applied to living organisms by touching them. In plants, fungi, and microbials it drastically accelerates growth. In animals and humans it strengthens them. The extent of both is determined by how much Henry feels for them. In the case of humans those feelings don't have to be good. If Henry applies it to himself he gets twice as strong.
Scorching Summer: Jahreszeiten Wechseln changes to a red as you call upon Summer. During this time you are able to absorb fire and heat. You can release this energy as explosions from the gauntlet. As the heat builds in Henry's body, with this he becomes more aggressive
Bountiful Autumn: Jahreszeiten Wechseln changes to a yellow-brown as you summon Autumn. While Autumn is active half of the physical damage you take is stored in you, the other half hits you normally. The energy can be called as a shield for yourself equal to what you took or you put the shield on multiple people, dividing the stored power to each person.
Chilling Winter: Jahreszeiten Wechseln change to a cold blue as you call upon Winter. Your strikes with the gauntlet weaken your opponent as Winters chill sets into them. This causes Their body to saps their strength away from their body until all they can do is lay down. This happens after quite a few landed punches or holding them for 2 minutes. However the opponent is immediately aware of the power when they are hit as they can feel it immediately.
Misc. Skills:
Henry has a few years in mixed martial arts. He knows a lot about plants and growing them. He is really good at housework. He would also say his cooking is something to behold. Doing mixed martial arts had taught him the basic of first aid as he got injured quite often
Personality: Henry is someone who will go out of his way to help someone even to the detriment of himself. He is generally kind if not a little quiet when he is by himself. He finds himself trying to help support other peoples goals rather then his own. He is attracted to people with strong convictions and people with high intelligence. He is easily manipulated as he usually takes things at face value. He is quick to defend someone in need of help.
Fears: Fears that he won't be able to provide the life his family deserves.
Bio: Henry's Family has deep ties with Germany, his Family line has lived in the Worms area of Germany for a long time. It is truly where Henry and his family calls home. His father had an office job and his mother worked part time at a grocer. Henry wasn't an only child for long, as it seemed with a successful career and a loving family led to another child after another. By the time Henry was 13 he had 6 siblings(Ben, Jane, Julia, Cristina, Lea, Hannah.) Everything was going great until the spring of his 8th year in school.
Henry always was interested in biology, and more specifically plants to the point he had a small garden he managed at home. He was heading out with some friends to goof off after school when he saw a small wilting plant. He approached it and while he inspected it his Noble Arms activated and the plant began grew rapidly. Henry was more curious than scared, so he continued until it bared flowers. It was then when his friends reported it to the police. After all, they only knew that he had activated his Noble Arms. He got into a little bit of trouble but not much. Soon it became clear what repercussions this would have.
Soon his father realized his options for career were gone. His mother was getting less hours at her job. His siblings were beginning to get bullied. It continued like this for years, they essentially got pushed out of their home. Henry started taking care of more things to help ease the burden he had unintentionally put on his family. Henry's life goals had switched from being for his success to living for his family. The bullying and out casting his family received created a divide in Henry's mind that was supported by the mentality he grew up in that he should use himself as an asset. That led him to deciding to go to Trinidad Academy to hone himself.
He started to prepare first by getting himself fit. Much to his surprise he developed his muscles very quickly, he thanked his parents for this. He started to learn mixed martial arts where he was confronted quickly that although he had the body needed to be a good fighter he lacked the mindset for it. Henry realized that fighting wasn't his natural state. He found himself hating sparing but he chose to set aside these feelings for his family and continued training. The day came to send off to Trinidad Academy, Henry hugged his family and flew off. He is nervous but he must succeed for his family.
*Current Goal: Secure himself a good rank to decrease tuition cost.

Tony took the swing with his shield towards the slime everything was going to work out. Then in a spectacular way tony missed the very slow slime. Tony then began to go into a drunken panic and ran away. He thought he was going to kill it with ease because at the end of the day it was a slime. But Tony had made the mistake of underestimating the slime. He swore he would come back tomorrow and defeat the slime for good.
With that Bob logged out and slept the rest of the night away. The next morning he stumbled to work with a nasty hangover. This has become a semi-regular occurrence which led to some of his work friends going out of the way to be loud around him in the morning, but this was all in good humor. John has been messaging Bob throughout the day asking if he enjoyed the game how far he got. Bob decided to just tell him he was too drunk and passed out on the floor of his office. He felt that if he said he rage quit against the first enemy he would never live it down. As the day wrapped up he went out with some work friends.
Some of the guys got together and decided to head over to a Dave & Buster’s. Bob designated himself as the responsible one for the night. They played games, eating food, and downed enough alcohol together that he thought they might puke in his car. After getting them all home and apologizing to some of their wife's Bob finally went home. He prepared himself to play and started.
Now being sober this game looked even better somehow. But Tony was in a hurry this time so he didn’t take the scenery in very much. He started to head to an area the quest pointed out. As he looked at the slime he started to kinda just hit it, he used his skills. Missed a few times but it was pretty standard affairs all things considered. At the end Tony was a little tired. He has came to the conclusion this might not support solo gaming that much at the start. After completing the quest he began to enter town.
