    Expanded Content Warnings for Hank

    
    • Hank lost his six year old son because of a car accident, three years prior to the start of his canon.
    
    • Due to the above, Hank struggles with depression, alcoholism and suicide ideation/attempts.
    
    • Also due to the above, Hank initially hated androids because he blamed them in part for his son’s death (an android had to operate on his son since the human doctor was high on drugs at the time).
    
    • Hank is a detective with the Detroit Police Department.

Hank Anderson is a 53-year-old police officer. Valedictorian of his police academy, he quickly distinguished himself through courage and intellect, solving many difficult investigations. Though he looked set for a brilliant career in the Detroit Police Force, he suffered some kind of cruel setback.

Anderson slowly sank into alcoholism and an unpredictable, even suicidal, state of mind which earned him multiple warnings and disciplinary penalties.

Always respected and regarded highly by his former colleagues, who know what a brilliant officer he was, but also feared for his bad temper and dry humor, Anderson seems to just want to be left in peace. He has little esteem for humanity in general, preferring the company of his dog. Antisocial, he only ventures out to frequent sleazy bars.

One last detail: he hates androids.
