Hendrick

Biography & Overview

Hendrick is a ruthless veteran vanguard swordsman and a core high-ranking member of New Elpis, operating under the command of Vael Verborough.

Martial Mastery: The Al Brad Style​

Hendrick is the foremost practitioner of the Al Brad Style, a vicious mercenary sword discipline built around aggressive forward velocity and bone-breaking momentum:

  • Relentless Forward Shock: Rather than relying on intricate feints, Hendrick crashes directly into an opponent's guard, utilizing explosive footwork and crushing diagonal strokes.
  • |Al Brad Style: Rising Strike|: His signature technique—a rapid close-quarters lunge followed by a brutal upward slash designed to break an adversary's posture and expose their throat.

Role in the Saga (Volume III & IV)​

  • The Caravan Raid on Tobias Herman (Volume III): Spearheaded the frontline melee charge during New Elpis's raid against Tobias Herman's traveling caravan on the plains, crashing through caravan guard lines with aggressive Al Brad strokes before the Kökbörü counter-charge.
  • Rooftop Skirmishes in the Capital (Volume IV): Fought on the frontlines alongside Vael and Bojan against Zaek Evarard and Aelira Viremont, aggressively engaging in melee to create windows for Vael's sudden Burst-type thrusts.
  • The Imperial Road Ambush (Volume IV): Formed the core shock vanguard during the fifty-man operation that surrounded and fatally overwhelmed the Hero of House Evarard.
