* FaceOfAThug: As a teenager, Henry had the countenance of a tombstone, with sharp features that appeared fiendish and ghastly when he was angry or upset. Despite this, he was still predisposed towards gentlemanly behavior and comported himself properly. When directly compared to his appearance in the past, some of those features can still be glimpsed, though Henry's monocle draws attention away from his frightening eyes and his impressive mustache hides his lips. Ironically, his face would only ''continue'' to mold itself after a tombstone as he grew older, as it narrowed significantly and the forehead became more prominent, even as Henderson himself became more conventionally attractive.
