Editing Fruit of the Vine:Henri Rosenbaum (section)

===Anchors===
Note: As a ghost, Henri is fairly hard to harm naturally. He has no body to attack, after all. He is, however, very reliant upon his anchors and has few means of protecting them. Henri would have been unable to anchor lacking blood or tears, but Franz had tasted his blood on the day Henri died, and this allowed Henri to instantly anchor him, and has been able to use Franz' body to anchor the others.

Rabbi Oscar Benjimin- Talk-back radio rabbi who argues for mercy as a feature of the law. Henri see's him as a good man who he has unjustly corrupted away from G-D, and whom he loves and pities. 

Simeon Black- The ex-husband of Henri's great-neice. She married him for his looks and charm, he married her for the financial security and thus freedom she represented. When he had what he wanted, the he left her. Years later, he was almost completely autonimous, about to start his own business. The day before all his dreams were realised, he was anchored by Henri and moved into the chancel. Now, he acts as herald and body-on-demand for the Power, given everything he could want and denied the one thing he needs- selfdetermination.

Franz Kauderrman- A Getaspo counter-intellegance officer. Very canny and efficient, very intellectual and utterly heartless. Anchored days after Henri was ennobled, Franz has been given all the pains of growing older and yet none of the physical weakness. He runs a small international organisation of former Nazi intellegance operatives and their pawns, acting as Henri's eyes and ears on earth. In the last decade, Franz has converted to Catholicism, repented his sins and resigned himself to a life in Hell once Henri lets him die. This change has made him a peaceful, kind and beautiful person, resigned to cause suffering and suffer with full empathy for his victims. This change has shaken Henri's hate for the man, and the anchoring has become tenuos though not yet broken.

Rickie Hepburn- Intellectual property lawyer specialised in medical patents. Knows he recieved his power by being hated by his noble, and loves the advantages it gives him anyway.
