-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hank Anderson is a lieutenant in the Detroit Police Department’s homicide division, once regarded as one of the most promising officers in the city. He was born and raised in Detroit and built his career from the ground up—graduating top of his class at the police academy and quickly earning a reputation for sharp instincts and effective casework. His work on the Red Ice Task Force in the late 2020s led to major arrests and a rapid promotion to lieutenant, making him the youngest in Detroit's history at the time.

Hank's trajectory changed following the death of his son, Cole. In 2035, a car accident left Cole critically injured and in need of emergency surgery. The procedure was performed by an android while the available human surgeon was incapacitated, and Cole did not survive. The loss had a lasting impact on Hank, contributing to severe depression, alcoholism, and a decline in job performance. His once upward career stalled, replaced by disciplinary issues and a reputation for unreliability.

Despite this, Hank remains a capable detective. His experience, intuition, and understanding of people continue to make him effective in the field, even if his methods have become less disciplined. He maintains a strong sense of underlying morality, particularly when civilian safety is at risk, though it is often obscured by his abrasive attitude and self-destructive habits.

Hank lives alone with his dog, Sumo, and spends much of his time either at home or in local bars. Initially resistant to working with androids, particularly his assigned partner Connor, his stance begins to shift over time. While he rarely expresses it directly, his behavior suggests a growing sense of reluctant trust and protectiveness, reflecting a more complex view than his initial resentment would imply.
