Get the Taylor Clemsonmug. Henry is a amazing person with many redeeming qualities, he is able to fight off many people in the span of a few seconds, with it said he would only lose to someone if he felt bad for them and needed to bring up their self esteem. Henry can be cold to other people if he feels uneasy with them but besides that he is a very loving person that will make sure the job gets done.
