Henry


Henry Bythesea
Auror
London Resident | 45 | Former Gryff


Friends: Harry is almost as straight laced as they come, and has little patience for frivolity. He’s the sort who will tell you exactly what he thinks, even when you don’t want to hear it. That said, the people who manage to push past his sharp edges will find someone dependable and unflinchingly loyal. He doesn’t collect a wide circle, but the few he tolerates?

Family: He's related to the Rowles through marriage, so there's that fun!

Ministry: Long-time Auror, Harry has firmly embedded in the Ministry since 1868, when he entered the Auror training program. I think it would be fun if he had a work rival! Or someone who makes him groan whenever he sees them or has to work with them on anything. (And I mean, now's the perfect time given the whole... mist thing happening.)Outside of that, Harry has collected his fair share of grudges. Dark wizards, criminals he’s hunted down, even families who resent him for arrests he’s made.

Romance: Well he certainly doesn't love his wife, so always down for some affair hurls.

I’m p sure everyone at the Ministry groans when Barney’s around but I can volunteer him specifically for Henry to despise? They’re both in the DMLE so probably see each other often.

We've discussed, but aaaaall of my Ministry peeps!!

Younger Ben probably thought he had a stick up his ass but definitely respected him, but now that he's older he likely gets a long more with Harry than before. Ben still can be a little reckless but he cares about his staff and is good at direction.

Faustus and him are probably closest in personality! Doesn't tolerate a lot of bullshit, he respects Harry's work ethic and the time he's put into the department. I'd say if I had to compare Faustus and Ben, Faustus is more like the responsible dad and Ben's the fun uncle xDD

People he's likely worked alongside with in whatever capacity but not as closely are Rowan and Saffron!

Both are competent at their jobs and serious about their work, Saffron might be the more cheerful of the two and try and joke around with him, even if he doesn't reciprocate haha

my Old Men Club consists of!

Mateo Sutherland of course could be a particular headache for Henry as they're quite opposite in personality. I'm looking forward to their thread XD He would have been a couple years ahead in Gryffindor!

Jack Collins is a couple years younger, but also in Gryffindor. Much more subdued and reasonable lol

Sydney Podmore was a year behind in Slytherin, was a bit more of a hotshot in his youth, but has simmered down now lol.

Useful Ministry Peeps though much younger are Angie Swan and Brooks Watson and of course, Eugene lol

I can give you Sara Hyde, fellow auror and middle class lady of colour who will probably hate Henry on principle. I would love it if they formed a hatemance <3

Additional Ministry peeps are Konstantin Fisk and Marlena Scamander with the former more likely to be his work bro. Kons has a touch of social climbing about him so he would probably enjoy Henry.

ALSO there is Sybilla Rowle who sort of does love her husband but is very confused about wtf happened to him and could do with a shoulder and for me to finally flesh out her family relationships!

Killian's the only one I've got for him and they're already in a thread together; they'd definitely not regularly interact, being tied to different departments at the Ministry, but still!



Killian notably walks with a limp, relying heavily on his polished walking stick for support

Haha xD Well, I think he'd get along with both Ben and Faustus, although I like he might have a preference for Faustus if he has to choose.

Aw, I laughed at the idea of Saffy trying to get him to laugh while Harry just like... deadpans while he's like WTF. Go away.

xD Sorry you lose part of your finger Mateo haha
I'm not sure he'd like Syd, at least at Hogwarts, but I think he'd like Jack!

And yes, to all of your ministry peeps.

I like hatemance. I'm down. I'm not sure how he feels about women in the workplace, but he can't be worse than Leo haha.

Oh, he and Kon can be friendly!

Haha, meanwhile Harry is like put Sera back to the way she was xD They should definitely thread.

Based on their current thread, I think they'd get along when they overlapped lol

Initial impressions says that Henry does not like Locke and his shenanigans but with both being aurors I imagine they run into each other a lot which could be amusing.

I also have Isobel Valenduris who started her domle internship a couple months ago and depending on how he feels about women at work probably ruffles his feathers in all the other ways. She is vocally feminist and very force her way into places.
