Henry is a cluster of crabgrass which appeared in episode 112 of campaign 2. Voiced by Matt Mercer, Henry was named by Jester, when she talked to it to gain some intel.

Fandom Reactions

Matthew Mercer is too powerful. He’ll be like “He’s a patch of crabgrass” and he’ll play the patch of crabgrass and suddenly we’re all signing adoption papers for it, we swear to protect it with our lives and there’s a hundred fanarts. Ten years from now someone will tell us “My name is Henry” and we’ll think “awwwwwwwww, like the crabgrass. I wonder how he’s doing”

While a lot of fandom adoration for Henry came from the voice and personality of the character (as portrayed by Matt Mercer), some fans were thrilled by Henry's insistence that Jester obtain consent before she pets Henry. He repeated "Consent, please" before Yasha touched it as well. That line quickly because a meme.
