## Biography

### Early Life

For the first couple years of Henri's life, life with his parents was pleasant and good in Malfoy Manor. He would often go with his parents on visits to the Albus Potter residence. Scorpius and Albus Potter were best friends, but Henri being very shy would always stay in the lap of his mother rather than play with the girls his age that were Albus's daughters. However, when Henri was five years old, this pleasant life changed forever.

\*SPOILERS FOR Regina Potter Book 1\*

A concerning headline in the Daily Prophet sent his mother, Magnolia, down an anxiety spiral and she became obsessed with protecting her family from threats. This led her to purchase a book she found in Knockturn Alley titled Noturiana’s Book of Curses, Hexes, and Jinxes. At first this was a great help to Magnolia as she studied the book and it put her mind at ease about protecting her family. However, she started acting quite strange as Scorpius noticed. Henri was far too young to correlate this newfound irritability and violent outbursts to the new spellbook, but Scorpius caught on quite quickly. Concerned for the safety of his son, Scorpius reported his wife to the Ministry of Magic. One day, Henri was in his bedroom when he overheard a screaming match from his parents downstairs. Quite worried he rushed downstairs to find both had their wands out and Magnolia was shooting dangerous curses everywhere, trashing the living room of Malfoy Manor as the spells dodged Scorpius. One of these curses was the Unforgivable curse *Crucio,* which happened to both be enacted as Aurors from the Ministry barged through the door, and as the curse ricocheted off of a mirror and grazed the head of Henri.

The injury left Henri with a streak of white in his hair, and when he awoke to find his mother gone without quite knowing why, he attached himself to her most sacred possession which she was forced to leave behind: Noturiana’s Book of Curses, Hexes, and Jinxes. For the rest of his childhood Henri fell quiet, sad, and angry about his mother's arrest and Azkaban sentence. He refused social interaction with anyone until his Hogwarts Years began.

### Hogwarts Years

#### First Year (2043 - 2044)

\*SPOILERS FOR Regina Potter Book 1\*

Henri started at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a first year in 2043. He is sorted into Ravenclaw, and over time (yet reluctantly), Henri befriends Regina Potter and Tara Granger-Weasley. They are able to see past his sullen demeanor and are able to bring out the best in him. However, at this point in his life when Henri begins studying magic he takes a closer look at the book written by the Dark Lady. Over time this book has a corrupting effect on Henri, as his temper becomes much shorter, and his eyes flash green and black in moments of rage. The white streak of his hair turns grayer and grayer as time passes, and Henri becomes so angry about the events of his childhood he has a horrible idea. His mother's Azkaban sentence was to be over that Christmas break, and the corruption motivates him to attempt to murder Magnolia upon her arrival. He builds up his curse skills working towards *Avada Kedavra,* using the book and practicing in secret. One day by accident as he is practicing a dangerous curse strikes Regina and hospitalizes her. Henri is horrified at what he has done to his best friend and begins trying to curse himself out of regret. This event is walked in on a week later after Regina is healed and Regina and Tara catch him practicing the dangerous spells with the book. He reveals the truth to the girls that his mother returns from Azkaban that Christmas, and he planned to kill her as revenge for her actions when he was young. Regina and Tara are horrified, but they cannot change his mind. After Henri gets taken to Azkaban himself after his plot against his mother is found out by administration, Regina and Tara form a plan. They discover that Henri does not truly want to kill his mother, but some enchanted ink in the book he was carrying corrupted him and surely was what caused his mother to violent as well. With evidence he was innocent, the girls were ready to go on a quest over winter break to break Henri out of Azkaban. Henri is stuck in Azkaban right next to a cell holding The Dark Lady. She recognizes him as one of her corrupted from the book she wrote and uses this to her advantage when Regina and Tara's team come to break Henri out. Upon reaching Azkaban, the group break Henri out, but face the true Dark Lady who was also imprisoned there: the author behind the cursed book, and the most powerful witch in the world to date. She posesses Henri and Tara to become Dark Henri and Dark Tara, and the group battles, saving their friends but releasing The Dark Lady in the process. This battle would come to be known as the first battle of The Dark War: **The Battle of Azkaban**. The group return home for Christmas, and Regina's mother is horrified to hear about the Dark Lady, and she and her sister Jordan reveal the true story of Noturiana: The Dark Lady. Her real name is Natalie Jones, the twin sister of Jordan, and was very powerful witch with a thirst for power and knowledge. Amy had a gift for Divination at the time, and accidentally emitted a prophecy revealing Natalie would be taken down by someone of her own blood, and after Regina was born on the exact same birthday as Jordan and Natalie, Natalie believed the prophecy was referring to Regina. Out of fear of being killed, Natalie has a panic attack and her powers explode a muggle town. She is sent to Azkaban after her act of terrorism, but Amy has no idea as to how she has been affecting the outside world from there. Amy worries the world is in grave danger now that Noturiana is free. Henri is determined to help his targeted best friend, no matter what it takes. After recovering from her exhaustion after being Dark Henri in St. Mungo's Hospital, the second half of the school year goes on without incident, although everyone is in a constant state of fear.
