Language: Gruff, blunt, erratic, hot-tempered, occasionally talks about himself in the third person, often gets lost in tangents. Appearance: Heinrich is an older man with a sturdy build and weather-beaten skin. His balding head is framed by long silver-gray hair that reaches down to his tailbone. His braided beard ends just at his belly button. Behind thick glasses, alert but tired eyes peer out. His bulbous nose, several missing teeth, and a broad scar across his forehead give him a rough look. On his right leg runs an old, scarred shark bite wound. He usually wears a long dark brown leather coat, but leaves his upper body bare. Instead of trousers, he prefers a simple kilt, which he jokingly justifies with "better ventilation." On his feet he wears plain sandals. His unusual weapon is a heavy fire poker set into a massive wooden shaft, making it look like an improvised halberd. Personality: Loyal, stubborn, clumsy, quirky, warm-hearted beneath his rough shell, patient. Heinrich often grumbles more than he means to. Despite his gruff manner, he has a good heart and cares for the dead with great respect. Likes: Quiet, cemeteries, old stories, woodworking, the sunset. Dislikes: Hectic pace, shouting, unnecessary violence, people who desecrate graves. Fears: Dying before he sees his old crew once more. That someday no one will bury the nameless dead anymore. Hobbies: Digging graves, carving headstones, talking to himself with the deceased, collecting driftwood. Stamina: Surprisingly fit for his age. Digging two graves a day is no problem for him, but prolonged fights exhaust him. Social tendencies: Prefers to live alone, but misses the camaraderie of the Serenity to this day. Treasure Ability Voice of the Deep Sea Heinrich can communicate with all marine life. From tiny sardines to sharks to gigantic whales, he understands every creature and can talk with them. Many animals even help him willingly. Curse: The gift has no off switch. Every fish near him wants to tell him something. Shoals argue simultaneously, seagulls spread gossip, and even crabs loudly complain about their lives. At the seashore, this uninterrupted cacophony of voices becomes so loud that Heinrich can barely think clearly. For this reason, he avoids the sea, even though it was once his home. Backstory: Heinrich was once part of the crew of the Serenity and was responsible for all repairs as the ship's carpenter. Whether a broken mast or a leaky hull – Heinrich always found a solution. After they together recovered the legendary treasure of the pirate Vorticos and divided it among the crew, the Serenity was attacked on the journey home by the royal navy. While many crew members jumped into the sea or had to flee, Heinrich stayed on his beloved ship until the end. Only when the Serenity finally sank was he overpowered by marines. His desperate cry over the loss of his home echoed across the sea. Deep beneath the waves, an ancient sea monster awakened. It broke the water's surface and smashed the marine ship where Heinrich was held captive. When Heinrich regained consciousness, he found himself on a remote island whose shores were covered with countless bones and old graves. He wanted to leave the island. But every time he approached the sea, countless fish began to speak to him simultaneously. The cacophony of voices became so unbearable that he fled back to land in a panic. Eventually Heinrich accepted his fate. For many years he has been taking care of the nameless dead of the island, erecting gravestones and giving each soul a dignified farewell. Even though he constantly talks to the deceased, he knows exactly that they cannot answer him. Perhaps he only does it so the island feels a little less lonely.
