History
Henry grew up without any siblings, and grew up in a very hostile environment. His parents, especially his father, criticized his lack of manly attributes and his career choices and sometimes used physical violence against him. As such, by the age of twenty-five, he'd already practically estranged himself from his parents and immediate family, only keeping touch with a few relatives.
Henry moved to Gravity Falls after graduating college in order to become the town's new librarian. He met Mabel at the age of twenty-one, when Wendy introduced him to her at a party.
It wouldn't be long before the two found themselves married.
Henry didn't gain the nickname "The Woodsman" until the age of forty-two, when Dipper infused him with a dose of demonic energy to give him the ability to protect Willow while Dipper saved her life. He is temporarily transformed into a powerful, monstrous beast. The power lingers with him thereafter.
Unfortunately, it comes with the side effect of draining his lifespan. Henry would die before Mabel, and, Upon his death, the Woodsman becomes a separate entity entirely, staying behind to stalk the woods as Henry reentered the reincarnation cycle.
Appearance
According to his official character bio, Henry is 6'7, and has very sharp facial features, curly red hair, freckles and hazel eyes framed by dark rimmed glasses.
After becoming the Woodsman, his soul gains a set of branch-like moose antlers that most normal people can't see. They follow him throughout his reincarnations in a variety of forms. As the Woodsman, the hands he has cut from his victims hang from his antlers.
Personality
Henry takes care of most the cooking around the house, and enjoys reading. When he's not doing either of these things, he's most likely chasing after one or more of the kids.
A very patient and sweet-tempered individual by nature, he cares deeply for his family. He prefers to avoid direct confrontation or violence- just don't mess with the people he loves.
Relationships
Mabel Pines
The very first time Henry saw Mabel, it wasn't so much as love at first sight as it was interest. However, upon being formerly introduced, he found himself almost instantly enamored with the girl. Thus began a love that would only grow stronger the more time they spent together, culminating in a close and happy marriage. Henry always puts Mabel above his own needs, and is willing to handle just about anything to stay by her side.
Acacia Pines
It should go without saying that Henry loves his daughter. However, he often finds himself worried over her recklessness. After she loses her eye, he can't help but feel guilty, and ends up blaming himself for the incident.
Willow Pines
Hank Pines
Dipper Pines
There are times when Dipper scares him- unintentionally or otherwise. But despite his initial unease regarding his more demonic qualities, he accepts Dipper. Pretty soon, nothing he does really phases him anymore. Eventually the two form a brotherly sort of bond. Of course, he's not above joining Mabel for a bit good natured teasing at his expense.
Arnold Corduroy
Arnold Coruduroy is a stern and close-minded man whose views clash harshly with Henry's own. The man was the main source of Henry's grief a child. He wanted his son to be the opposite of who he was- someone who spent his days drinking, chopping wood, and going after the girls. Instead, he got Henry. While he lived in his household, he'd rip the reading material right out of the bookworm's hands, and refused to let him spend to much time on his homework, as he viewed both as 'unmanly'. He beat Henry once as a child, and tried to sort him from going to collage as a young adult- at which point Henry snapped and basically said 'fuck you' before heading out the door to make his own way in the world. As one can imagine, their relationship didn't imrpove after that. Like Rita, he strongly dislikes Mabel, thinking she doesn't know her place as a woman, which is enough to make Henry's blood boil.
Rita Corduroy
Henry always got along with his mother than he got along with his father- though that's not exactly saying much. Prior to Mabel meeting his folks, she was the only one of his parents he kept in contact with after moving to Gravity Falls. His mother, for her part, highly disapproves of his marriage, and promises to pray for him on his behalf.
