Henry II

Henry II of France (French: Henri II) was the King of France. He was the husband of Catherine, and the father of Francis, Louis, Sebastian, Elisabeth, Claude, Margaret, Charles, Henry III and twins: Emone and Henrietta. He was the father-in-law of Mary Stuart, Anastasia De Novo Delacourt, and Philip II.
Henry was determined to get his hands on England and have his son and daughter-in-law rule over the three nations. He eventually spiraled into madness and he was then willing to go to extreme lengths to achieve this goal, whether it be crossing lines or not. He got it in his head that he had to kill both Sebastian and Francis and either wed Mary or Ana so that he could have all the kingdoms to himself. His family quickly realized that it would not be safe for the nation to have a mad king and that they had to kill him. After a few failed plots against him that drove him even further into madness. During The Joust, Francis in disguise battled his father and gave him an injury that gave him an infection eventually killing him.
Henry was a member of the Valois Family by birth and a member of the Medici Family by marriage.
== Early Life ==
Henry was born the second son of the previous king. His father was captured by the Spanish in his childhood and Henry and his older brother, the Dauphin Francis, went to meet him on a supposed brief visit. When Henry ran to greet his father, his father ran past Henry and Francis and jumped into another boat, leaving the boys behind with the Spanish as hostages in his place. Whilst captive of the Spanish, Henry and Francis were beaten and starved. When Francis was eighteen Henry poisoned his water during a tennis match, killing him in order to gain the throne.
== Personality ==
Henry is headstrong, stubborn, and does not appreciate people undermining his authority as royalty. He appears to be a bit of a hedonist, having 2 mistresses and a wife. Despite this, he seems to be really caring toward his children, even more toward his first-born and bastard son Sebastian. Henry is extremely greedy and power-hungry, his constant obsession with expanding the Kingdom of France is a major conflict between him and the other characters.  
== Physical Appearance ==
Henry was a tall and well-built man in his early forties. He had brown eyes, tanned skin, and - through his brown stubble beard - one could tell that his hair would be dark brown if it had not been shaved. As the King of France, and always wanting to display his wealth and power, he wore the most lavish clothing, and was very rarely seen without his crown.
