Henry Shines-on-Secrets
Henry Shines-on-Secrets is a rank 3 homid Theurge Uktena.[1]
History
Henry was born in Michigan and dove headlong into history and mythology as soon as he was old enough to understand the stories. While searching through the Mammoth Caves in Kentucky with a friend, a sudden rockslide caused a cave in. Finding his friend rapped behind a rock, Henry pushed, desperately trying to free him, until suddenly the rock slid aside easily. His friend fainted at the sight of him, but Henry, now in Crinos form for the first time, dug his way out.
Being Garou did not stop Henry from attending college and obtaining degrees in Archaeology and Folklore. His Ph. D. is pending at the moment (he spends too much time doing fieldwork to finish it, but plans to get around to it someday), but his reputation more than makes up for it. At the moment, Egypt is his land of focus, and he plans to find a willing pack and go searching the desert near Luxor to discover the truth of the rumors surrounding the region.

Henry is a light-skinned Native American in his mid-30s (though he looks younger). He us slender and trim, and crackles with energy. He is at ease in nearly all social situations, and has avoided cultivating his Rage to make sure that humans are as comfortable as possible around him. In Lupus form, his is a red wolf with brown streak down his muzzle. In Crinos form (which he avoids if at all possible), the brown fur covers his head.
