Henrik "'''Omega'''" Norgren joined The Elite in late 2003, setting Personal Records in [[Goldeneye 007|Goldeneye]] at an amazing pace.  His amazing PR output allowed him to reach the top 10 quickly.  He has achieved many World Records, including Aztec 00 Agent 1:55, which broke what was the second longest lasting untied record at the time.  In February 2006, he discovered a new trick on Train Secret Agent/00 Agent, which led to 26 seconds being cut from Goldeneye's overall time.  He also got a few World Records on Goldeneye's Turbo Mode.  He played The World Is Not Enough briefly, obtaining several World Records there.  His [[Mario Kart 64]] career ended immediately after he joined the site at King A.

He immediately went about setting Personal Records in [[Goldeneye]] at an amazing pace, allowing him to reach the Top 10 incredibly quickly.  Along the way he achieved many [[World Records]], including [[Aztec]] 00 Agent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQmKtgw6gZ8 1:55], which broke what was the second longest lasting untied record at the time.

In February 2006, he discovered a new trick on [[Train]] Secret Agent/00 Agent, which led to over 30 seconds being cut from Goldeneye's overall time. Henrik himself held an untied sweep on [[Train]] for a pretty long time, before [[Rayan Isran]] eventually beat all competition on that level in early 2007. Henrik also invented the current [[Bunker 2]] [[00 Agent]] strategy and got a few World Records on Goldeneye's Turbo Mode.

PR-wise, Henrik was virtually inactive for 4 years but made a very impressive comeback latey, tying many Agent WRs, despite playing on the [[PAL]]-system only. He is currently ranked 8th on Agent and 20th overall. Henrik also still contributes to the community by testing out possible strats in doing [[TAS]] runs, even finding a more optimal Natalya protection strat on [[Control]] among a couple of other interesting/useful things such as a new door warp strategy on [[Egypt]] and a new mine throw on [[Jungle]]. Henrik is widely regarded as being the best strat-founder in the-elite.

Henrik is a huge Final Fantasy fan and has had a few attempts at speedrunning the game. He has also played The World Is Not Enough, obtaining every World Record on it (!). He also nabbed some pretty good [[Perfect Dark]] times such as [[Defection]] Agent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpYPpiB8BQQ 0:06] and [[Maian SOS]] Agent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7-8ZomAvks 1:38]. Henrik also competed at [[Mario Kart 64]] back in 2004 - his short career ending immediately after he joined the site at King A.

A keen musician, Henrik plays Guitar, Piano and Drums in two bands. His main group is a melodic death metal band that used to go by the name "Dark Signs". The second group needed a drummer and Henrik jumped in to assist - see links below for a demo of their music. Henrik studied Natural Science and graduated in June 2008.
