Prof. Henrik Rosen was the previous headmaster of Saltfair All-Girls Academy. As of 2081, he has resigned from this position.
Career
Rosen began teaching at Saltfair All-Girls Academy in 2070, at age 27, in the specialized fields of botany and propagation. Following the retirement of the previous headmaster, Rosen took over the role in 2072, assuming the general responsibilities of school administration as well as teaching his classes.
Following scrutiny after the Penumbra's Parley Massacre, he stepped down from the role in 2081 and has avoided public appearances since.
Personal Life
Rosen was born in Cytopia in March 2033, and began studying botany from a reportedly young age. He moved to Draywood in 2051 at age 18 to further these studies due to their natural landscape, where he met and entered a relationship with Lilly Nissan. He returned to Cytopia in the winter of 2057 to pursue his career.
In 2072, he reunited with his daughter Elsa Nissan, more commonly known under her Hero alias as Pestläkare. She was 14 at the time. From this point onward, he assumed the role of her primary guardian.
Controversy
During his early employment, Saltfair Academy faced criticism for hiring a marked teacher, claiming that Rosen had an unfair advantage over others and citing concerns that his credits was falsified. Despite this, Rosen remained in his teaching position, going on to state that he'd "Worked just as hard to receive [his] degree as any unmarked man, and [he is] disheartened by the response." In another interview, he followed up on this statement by stating "I believe that even if the marked percentage of students is much less than the unmarked, those kids deserve to be shown that they can do good things, too. I want to be that role model for them." Rosen was then reported to have tripped over a power cord as he hurriedly exited the room, carrying a piece of buttered toast in his mouth.
Following the Penumbra's Parley Massacre, Rosen faced extensive scrutiny and backlash for his relation to Pestläkare. Many parents of Saltfair's student body called into question his ability to guide their children, and what sort of influence he might have on them given the actions of his own daughter. There were also accusations made that he was complicit in the Massacre's planning, although this has never been proven, and Rosen has not faced any legal repercussions.
Under pressure to do so from the school board, Rosen resigned from his position as headmaster for Saltfair All-Girls Academy and has since declined any comments when pressed by media.
Saltfair All-Girls Academy later released a statement disavowing Pestläkare's actions and ensuring the public that their school will take precautions moving forward in ensuring the student body is properly assessed for mental distress involving and related to the Parley Massacre.
As of 2081, public opinion around Rosen is terse, and he is widely regarded as a Villain by association.
Abilities and Gear
Mark
Rosen's mark allows him to summon vines at command, manipulating them without physical interaction. This ability only works when used in soil, and the quality of said soil affects the strength, dexterity, and type of the vines summoned.
