Henry Foss is an abnormal member of Dr. Helen Magnus's team in the Old City Sanctuary. A self-proclaimed geek, Henry is both a weapons designer and a brilliant computer scientist, not only supplying new gear to the team for missions, but regularly maintaining the Sanctuary's defenses, and keeping them working just as well.[10]

Biography[]

Henry Foss was found on the moors as a child by Helen Magnus,[11] who took him back with her to the Old City Sanctuary. There, she raised him together with her biological daughter Ashley Magnus,[12] while Bigfoot served as a father figure.[13] He has no memory of his biological parents.[14]

Within the Sanctuary, Henry Foss takes care of the Sanctuary’s defenses such as the EM shield, and designs weapons, for example the stunner.[15] He also takes care of household problems that may arise, such as "unclogging plumbing disasters".[16]

Henry Foss is an abnormal, specifically a therianthrope / class nine Hyper-Accelerated Protean life form,[17] more specifically a werewolf / lycan.[14] For most of his life, only Helen Magnus and Bigfoot are aware of this[18] and does not want anyone else to know.[19] He holds off relationships and is afraid to open up, even to close friends.[20]

Henry Foss takes medication (a mixture of Diazepam and other drugs)[14] to suppress the transformation from happening; similar to how Nikola Tesla takes medication to guard against the bloodlust brought on by his vampiric nature.[19] For a long time he ignores his abnormal side in the hope that it will just go away, but does eventually change in spite of the medication.[19] After this, he briefly considers surgery (consisting of excising portions of both the pituitary and pineal glands) to rid himself of his abnormal nature, because he fears he will hurt those around him. He ultimately decides against the surgery when he manages to track Robbie Meyers and realizes his power's potential if he learns to control it.[11]

Over time, Henry Foss shows growth in the level of control he possesses over his abnormal side, as predicted by Bigfoot,[11] as well as in his of acceptance of it. In Episode 1x12 - "Revelations, Part I" Henry is captured by the Cabal, who plan to turn him into a HAP permanently. He tells his captors that his abnormality is not a condition and that he is not ashamed of who he is. He manages to harness his power and escape. By season 3 he is able to change back and forth at will and describes it as "pretty awesome". He tries to convince others of his kind that they should not have to hide and that their HAP side is part of who they are. By this point he has stopped taking the medication as he has come to believe that "it's no answer."[14]

Henry Foss is close to Rachel and her husband Gerald, abnormal researchers with whom he has worked together for a number of years. He describes Gerald as being like a brother to him, and believed he was helping Rachel and her marriage by being a friend, "someone she could count on". However, they grew closer than intended and Rachel had fallen in love with Henry, only marrying Gerald because he was the one who asked. Gerald had picked up on his wife's infatuation and attempted to kill Henry by drugging the pleskidara Jack. When this plan backfired and Rachel was the one to nearly die instead, he attacked Henry with a knife to force him to transform. He intended for the werewolf Henry to kill him so he wouldn't have to live without his wife, while Henry would have to live with having killed one of his closest friends. But when Rachel crashes Gerald is distracted and captured by Bigfoot. Without the threat of the knife Henry manages to quell his transformation. Rachel recovers, but Henry tells her they can't be together.[20]

For a long time Henry Foss believed he was the only one of his kind, "the beginning and ending of [his] line." While there sometimes are other werewolf sightings, they never turn out as such. When investigating another such sighting in the English town Oldham together with Will Zimmerman, they come across a private psychiatric clinic. Henry is admitted as a patient in an attempt to investigate and discovers that all other patients are lycans as well. He succeeds in convincing the inmates that they can live amongst society and don’t have to fear the transformation. He begins a romantic relationship with one of the heads of the institute, Erika Myers.[14]

Henry Foss and Erika Myers keep a long-distance relationship for a while,[21] until Erika visits Old City. Henry proposes to her, while at the same time Erika asks him to come live with her in England. They realize neither is willing to give up their life for one another and go their separate ways.[22] Some time later, Erika visits the Old City Sanctuary again to tell Henry she is pregnant with his child. Due to complications, Helen Magnus slows down the gestation period (from around ten months to possible twenty-two months) to ensure the safety of both Erika and the fetus, meaning that Henry will be a father sometime within in the next year & a half. Magnus tells him he will have some serious decisions to make come that time, possibly leaving the Sanctuary.[23] When Henry creates a video log for his future child while testing the FOSSS jacket in Episode 4x11 - "The Depths", he announces the names that he & Erika have picked out. They decided upon naming their child after their late HAP friend Alistair if it was a boy and Alice if the child was a girl. Henry also announces that their child will be raised in England and is excited by the future prospects that his kid will actually have a cricket bat and an accent.

When it fails to discharge, Ashley calls for Henry who then adjusts the weapon and is successfully able to fire it. Ashley and Henry then discuss the current state of readiness of her usual weapon arsenal, to which Ashley isn't satisfied and gives him a Friday deadline for when they need to be ready. As Ashley walks off, Henry figures out that Ashley plans to go on an unsanctioned abnormal killing hunt behind her mother's back.

Sometime afterward, Ashley is in her bedroom packing her motorcycle saddle bags with weaponry and other items when Helen Magnus walks in to dissuade her, having just been notified by Henry via phone call of Ashley's intended plan to go on a hunt for contraband list abnormals. Ashley sarcastically thanks an absent Henry for telling her mother, to which Magnus replies that he called out of concern for her well-being.

Magnus then radios Henry Foss who's currently down in the lab, cradled on the floor in pain next to the Morrígan's holding cells. Magnus asks him to get the security protocols for the entire facility operational immediately, but he can't as he's currently being affected by the witches. Magnus then sends Will to go help Henry while she continues to deal with the keepers.

Down in the lab, Henry's fixing the computer console. Will shows up to convince the Morrígan they weren't evil, that they were made to stop wars until Merlin brainwashed them. Just as Will makes progress, Henry gets the Sanctuary's lock-down protocol activated, shutting the large protective metal shield doors around the Morrígan's cells. Will yells at Henry to unlock them, but Henry refuses.

After Magnus and Bigfoot retreat into the kitchen, Magnus radios Henry for a status update. Henry informs her that the abnormal cells are secured but the upper levels and the lab are still vulnerable. He also tells Magnus that Will wanted to let the witches out, to which Will takes to radio to tell Magnus that he was getting through to them. Magnus orders Will and Henry to protect the lab at all costs and to forget the rest of the Sanctuary as they are about to be overrun with keepers.

In the process of Will and Henry trying to figure out a way to contact Ashley, Ashley coincidentally gets in touch with Will and Henry through the radio to inform them that she's in the building and working on taking out keepers.

As Will Zimmerman along with Bigfoot are in an observation cell with Alexei, Helen Magnus is joined by Henry Foss on the observation deck above them. Henry gives Magnus the analysis results of the sample she took from one of the cops at the morgue and notifies her of a working girl being murdered behind a warehouse near Circle Square four hours ago, to which Magnus requests the CCTV footage. Henry then leaves the room after requesting server upgrades, leaving Magnus alone to continue to watch the scene below.

1x02 Henry catches Ashley leaving

Henry Foss and Ashley Magnus

As Henry makes his way back through the large building, when the elevator he is in stops at the residential level, he comes across Ashley Magnus who is now fully dressed in her biker leathers, with helmet in hand. As they trade places, Henry comments "I thought your mother grounded you?" to which Ashley responds with "She did" as she turns to reach for the down button to take her to the garage. Even though Henry catches her breaking her mom's order, he lets her go so she can get them some new "toys".

Not long later, Magnus is up in her study at her computer station reviewing the CCTV footage she requested from Henry earlier. As she watches, her suspicion and worst fear becomes a reality as she clearly identifies the suspect in the frame of footage as being John Druitt.

1x02 Henry, Druitt, and Ashley

Henry Foss, John Druitt, and Ashley Magnus

After Ashley and Sylvio Rudd capture Druitt at an eastside warehouse, offscreen Ashley calls Henry for pickup. Ashley and Henry are seen returning, arriving at a side loading entrance of the Sanctuary in a van. When they get out, they open up the back to reveal Druitt securely strapped to a gurney. Henry doesn't really see the guy as a threat, except Ashley knows better. After the two release the gurney from tie-down straps, Ashley tells Henry to put him in the SHU and to let her mom deal with him.

Henry does as he's told. After Henry removed Druitt's restraints and was on his way out of the cell, Druitt disarms him, and forces Henry to take him on a tour of the Sanctuary.

1x02 Druitt stuns Henry

Henry Foss and John Druitt

They eventually reach Henry's array located just off to the side of the main lab in a lower level. Druitt then forces Henry to disengage the EM shield. After the EM shield is down, Druitt shoots Henry with his own energy weapon, stunning Henry unconscious.

Not too long later, Will and Bigfoot find Henry on the floor of his array, wondering what just happened to him.

Up in Magnus's study, when Druitt returns after having abducted Ashley, Magnus demands to know where her daughter is, to which Druitt tells her that her scruffy little helper (Henry) mentioned something about where the worst of the worst are kept.

1x02 Bigfoot, Will, and Henry

Bigfoot, Will Zimmerman, and Henry Foss

When Magnus sees Ashley inside the SHU enclosure of the giant lizard creature on the security camera feed displayed on her computer monitor, she secretly taps a few keys to enter a command that lowers the screens in the main lab, getting the attention of Henry, Will, and Bigfoot to Ashley's potentially deadly predicament.

After Ashley gets knocked down and slashed by the creature, Will and Bigfoot enter the enclosure as the still partially stunned Henry is sent to go find Magnus.

After Bigfoot gets slashed and Will grabs a busted pipe to jab the creature and hits the light filter off, forcing the creature to flee, Magnus and Henry come through the door; Magnus takes Ashley from Will as Will and Henry grab Bigfoot and put him on a gurney and group leave the enclosure.
Episode 1x03 - "Fata Morgana"
As Ashley Magnus is preparing for a mission to hunt down a humanoid chameleon, Helen Magnus is worried about her going alone. Ashley reassures her mother that she can handle the job, noting that she'll resort to using her shotgun if Henry Foss's gear fails.

During Ashley's time in the subterranean cavern, she eventually vanquishes the creature in close range combat with supposedly the new gear Henry wanted her to test (a device akin to a high-powered taser).

1x03 - Will, Henry, and Magnus undergoing damage control from The Morrígan

Will Zimmerman, Henry Foss, and Helen Magnus

After the Morrígan remember their past, they cause some chaos to erupt due to their powers; Henry notifies Magnus that the energy they generated has fried a number of systems, including their perimeter security systems causing the Sanctuary to become vulnerable. Magnus tells Henry to focus on fixing defense measures first and to leave the main lab for later.

As Henry is outside fixing the fence, he witnesses keepers of the dead invade the property. He radios Magnus to inform her and she tells him to grab some weapons and to meet them in the catacombs. Unfortunately, Henry gets caught by the Cabal and is forced to surrender. Having been captured, offscreen the Cabal force Henry to take them to the meeting location.

Episode 1x04 - "Folding Man"
1x04 - Will gets distracted by the police report

Helen Magnus, Henry Foss, Ashley Magnus, and Will Zimmerman

At the Old City Sanctuary, Will Zimmerman arrives late to find the Sanctuary team (Helen Magnus, Henry Foss, and Ashley Magnus) in the library watching security camera footage of a pawn shop robbery from the Old City Police Department LAN. Henry operates the computer as they discuss the case about how one of the robbers were able to mysteriously disappear from a coal chute basement with no other exit. When the brief concludes, Henry accepts the bag of bagels from Will, who's now distracted by the police file.

Will, Magnus, and Ashley then visit the crime scene basement and realize that a ten-inch-diameter pipe is the only way out. Helen asks Ashley if they brought Henry's camera, and Ashley says they did and goes to get it out of the van. Helen then loads the small robotic camera into the pipe and Ashley slowly crawls it forward, finding a fingerprint.

Back in the main lab, the Sanctuary team discuss how it could be possible for a man to squeeze in that far in and Ashley mentions that she's seen stranger things. Henry asks why she looked at him when she said that, and she just smiles in return. Magnus asks Henry to run the print, and he leaves to fulfill the request.

Later on, Henry catches up with Magnus and Will walking in an upper level hallway to inform them that the fingerprint matched to a man named Malcolm Dawkins and that his last known address was four years ago in Lago Vista, Texas.

After the Sanctuary catch Malcolm, and learn about a criminal named "Nomad" who's hooking folding men on a gold drug called TPG, Magnus believes the drug is being made locally and off-screen asks Henry to search for companies using the key ingredients to make it. Magnus meets Henry down in his array where his search yields no results, so Magnus asks Henry to break it down further, to search for those buying the ingredients to make the constituent compound ingredients that are used make TPG.

At almost 4:00 PM, Henry meets Magnus who's accompanied by Ashley in her study to inform her that there is only one small manufacturer located three miles north of Old City who's buying the scratch ingredients called Aridan Labs.
Episode 1x06 - "Nubbins"
As Ashley Magnus checks on the nubbins to see how they've settled into their new cell, Henry Foss walks by and begins to sneeze uncontrollably, turning out to be allergic to the small creatures. The opening notes of increased sexual tension sound as Ashley is talking about her nubbins and Henry is obviously thinking of something else. He looks pained and forlorn when Ashley asks “Don’t you just want to squeeze them?”

The next day, Henry and Bigfoot feed the nubbins, watching them devour the entire amount of food in seconds.

After a nubbin gets loose in Ashley room, Bigfoot leads Helen Magnus and Henry to the nubbins enclosure to investigate the damage that nubbin did to the cell, allowing the rest of the nubbins to escape. Henry sneezes, and Magnus places her hand on his shoulder.

Magnus, Henry, Ashley, and Will Zimmerman are then seen walking down an upper level hallway towards Magnus's study. Henry is interacting with the tablet he's holding and departs the group at Magnus's order to seal the building, not entering the room with the rest of them.

Henry Foss

As the team searches for the nubbins, Henry is seen placing a piece of cheese in an overhead air duct to lure a nearby nubbin. Before Henry can shoot it with a tranq dart, he sneezes, scaring the nubbin which causes it to bite him then hop away. Henry yells out in pain and abandons the air duct.

1x06 - Magnus tends to Henry as Ashley watches

Helen Magnus, Ashley Magnus, and Henry Foss

Henry is then treated by Magnus in an upper level exam room, spectated by Ashley. Magnus schedules a full rabies series treatment for Henry. Ashley tries to defend the nubbins, but Henry holds no love for the creatures and Magnus says the attack can't be taken lightly. Magnus then orders Henry to come up with a technological solution to catch the nubbins faster. Ashley tries to argue and Magnus chastises her for her poor judgement which ultimately lead to this situation. The guest Sophie arrives as Henry leaves; Henry awkwardly bumps into the doorframe while staring at her as he exits and walks away to the right. As Ashley exits the room to give Sophie patient privacy, she watches Henry having turned around to intentionally walk left past the doorway again in order to get another glimpse of Sophie.

Henry is in his array as the computer systems start to malfunction. Shortly after Will joins him, a nearby computer system sparks. When Henry removes the panel, it reveals two fried nubbins inside.

1x06 - Henry implants the tracker into the beast

Ashley Magnus, Helen Magnus, Henry Foss, and nubbin predator

Due to the nubbins increasing threat, Magnus decides to release the nubbin predator to cut down their numbers. Henry helps Magnus and Ashley implant a tracker/controller in the creature.

Henry is in his array having completed his giant nubbin vacuum. When he notices a nubbins squeaking nearby, he uses the vacuum to gleefully capture the nubbin.

Henry, Magnus, and Will are in the medical science research lab to release the ‘predator’. Henry uses a computer tablet to track and control the building, letting it out of its cell. After release, it causes mass amounts of nubbins to begin herding. Though the predator kills several nubbins, something goes wrong. The tracker indicates that the ‘beast’ has stopped just outside the library as power fails and the lights go out. Magnus tells Henry to see what he can do to restore power as Magnus and Will leave to investigate.

Henry is next seen entering into Magnus's candle lit study carrying an armful of split chopped wood for the fireplace. After the group figure out that cold temperatures may have an effect on the nubbins, she orders Ashley and Henry to gather fire extinguishers. When Henry fails to move and follow Ashley due to staring at Sophie, Ashley grabs him by the ear to drag him out of the room.

Henry then helps Magnus and the group determine that the nubbin distress call is at the ultrasonic sound level of 21.5 kilohertz.

S01 e0106 05 129046072390

Sophie and Henry Foss

They then set up sound emitters to herd the creatures so they can be ‘chilled’ by the fire extinguishers. Henry and Sophie stay together in Magnus's study, Henry pointing the emitter at the nubbins entering the room via the fireplace, forcing them out into the hallway.

Based on Magnus's cheeky demeanor, Will quickly figures out that Henry is currently unavailable because he's attending San Diego Comic-Con. When Will then asks where Bigfoot was, Magnus's smiling head turn indicates that he's with Henry. Will is in disbelief and Magnus explains that it's one of the few places he actually blends in. Will then concludes that he's working with "fanboys" and leaves the room.

No other details are given to explain Henry's absence.

When Bigfoot offers to Kate the option of having Henry install a spam filter on her laptop to make it easier on her to browse her email, Kate declines for the same reason why Bigfoot intentionally waited for Henry to be out of town to install the new game system. Both Kate and Bigfoot agree that Henry 'never just does it'. That instead, Henry has to design a new perfectly optimized system which leads to lengthy delays; exampled by others still waiting to play a video game six months later.

Will also regrets Henry's absence, saying that this was the last time they let Henry have the weekend off to "commune with his inner-wolf".

Relationships[]

Helen Magnus
Helen Magnus found Henry Foss on the moors as a child and took him with her to the Old City Sanctuary, where she raised him together with her biological daughter Ashley. Magnus became a mother figure to Henry and she in turn feels very maternal towards him, though they also share a genuine kinship and a friendship that "goes beyond the boundaries of mother and son".[25]
Bigfoot
Henry Foss grew up with Bigfoot in the Old City Sanctuary, and the two are very close. Their relationship can be characterized as father and son.[26][27]

Romance[]

Erika Myers
Henry Foss became involved with Erika Myers shortly after meeting her and her clan, the first other lycans he ever knew.[14] They had a long distance relationship for some time, and when she came to visit him in Old City, he decided to propose to her, against Will Zimmerman's advice. It turned out Erika was unwilling to move to Old City, just as he did not want to go to London.[22] Several months later, she visited the Old City Sanctuary again to tell Henry she is pregnant.[23]

Notes[]

  • Ryan Robbins previously made an appearance on the television series 'Wolf Lake', which was centered around werewolves.
  • Henry Foss speaks some sign language. [20]
  • Henry Foss is a four time claw crane state champion.[28]
  • Even though the gender of Erika Myers & Henry Foss's unborn child is not revealed to them or any other character on-screen in the show, it is revealed to the audience off-screen in the Sanctuary season 4 DVD audio commentary for a later Episode 4x11 - "The Depths" by Amanda Tapping & Gillian Horvath (minute mark start 28:17). The child is to be a girl, and will grow up as human first until most likely puberty before being able to shift into her HAP form.

Webisodes[]

In the original Sanctuary webisodes, Henry Foss's character is quite different from the one in the TV series. His origin is explained as being a descendant of Gregory Magnus's original weaponsmith back in London. When asked by Will Zimmerman whether he is an abnormal or not, Henry answers he is "a normal, boring Homo sapien".[29] He is responsible for weapons and tech support, among others things, and refers to himself as being "just an employee".[30]
