# Canon Description
Age
: 66 (Master)
Personality Traits
: Ambitious +3, Diplomatic +3, Scheming +2
Henri de Tours is a corpulent and sociable man, dressed splendidly as befits his status as probably the wealthiest merchant in Lübeck (which makes him one of the wealthiest men — at least among commoners — in the whole of Germany). He is well regarded among the city’s burghers as a cultured and able administrator and diplomat. Apprenticed in the Normandy Tribunal, he joined the covenant not long after its founding, and as the oldest remaining member now serves as disceptator. He plans that his familial dynasty will lead it for many generations to come. Henri is a master of Mentem magics, although the more he learns of that Art, the less inclined he becomes towards using it directly. He employs higher magnitude Mentem effects to increase the subtlety, not the raw power, of his magics (see his sample spell on page 72).
# Opinions on Important Topics
**Crinthera** is a threat against our just and necessary
trade in the Baltic.
**Waddenzee's** piracy is a threat to us all.
**Oculus S**:
We are an honest covenant and keep ourselves to ourselves.
We had some trouble in Spring 1220, partly due to non-Gently
Gifted visitors. That has been contained though, and it is
an internal matter.
We may have some operations in the grey area of the Code, but they are
kept secret and they harm no one. Nobody should care about them.
It is true that we have an obligation to explore hedge wizardry in
**Scandinavia** and do research on the **Order of Odin**.
If we have to, we have to, but I hope we don't.
I have not really considered the trade opportunities further into
the Northern lands.
I know some of the visitors had an incidence with a fire maga,
possibly **Helena**, but it did not sound that serious.
Ask Red for details.
Get details on the **Wolverine magus** from visibleman.
He collected a tithe from him, so he certainly has both some knowledge
and some interest.
