History: Helja hails from a village terrorized by goblins. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a old dungeon. She would wander through that old dungeon and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the desert due to the painful memories there. Helja took refuge in the old dungeon and found the beat up greatsword and armor she uses now. She has taken up leadership of the village's small militia in response to goblins demanding more tribute than usual.
