Description: She wears a pastel shirt, with a violet mid length skirt with violet tights and flats, usually wearing a coat over them, but does not cut a very imposing figure. She walks with a slouch but will stand straight to her full 4'9" when asserting herself. Her blonde hair, when down, is lengthy. Her eyes are hazel and she is always smoking a pipe.

Personality: She can speak with the dead, and doesn't see much difference between the living and dead. She disdains her fellow southerners, claiming they make her look unintelligent just for using an accent.

History: She was a bastard born out of an affair, and her mother always resented and mistreated her for it out of spite. Her parents died when she was young, and she was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Helen grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Helen. She would ruin relationships and cause injury. She was reprimanded several times before being given her current form and forced to learn humility.

The mother sought out extralegal help and others began closing their doors. He saw this and took pride in his mother's willingness to do anything to win.
