SPARKNOTES

PUBLIC INFORMATION

Henry recently graduated from an all-boys private school called Aglionby Academy in the fictional town of Henrietta, Virginia. [Think D.C. suburb - exclusive, historical charm for families with money and influence; a somewhat neglected rural hamlet for those without.]
His father owns an engineering company that develops robotic bees, currently headquartered in Hong Kong.
He has an older sibling and a younger sibling.
He is known for being a student activist. He's passionate about democracy and equality.
He drives an electric car: a silver/chrome Fisker (um, a replacement for the car he destroyed before this) (he is a nervous driver, ok)
He likes partying and all kinds of music.
He has modeled and may have photoshoots floating around in magazines, who knows.

SECRET INFO

Henry is telepathically linked to a magical robot bee. Called RoboBee. As a robot it can interact with most computer systems (phones, cameras, etc), as a little drone it can fly around and observe its surroundings, and as a magical item it can communicate with Henry within a certain distance (about a block). He usually has it with him, out of sight, and uses it as an assistive device for translating this thoughts to the outside world.
His mother is an international crime boss who deals in art, antiques, and magical artifacts. She is psychic and terrifying and pragmatic. She calls herself Seondeok.
Henry works for her. He was in Virginia to give her an excuse to establish a point of contact with a recurring supplier. And to investigate the magical capabilities of his classmates. He got too attached to the mark.
Once, at 10yo, Henry was kidnapped for ransom by some men who wanted to get their hands on Robobee. He was help captive for 5 days. He's still a little claustrophobic.

WORLD INFO

Magic exists. It's energy is concentrated where it flows along ley lines across the globe.
