[hider= The Dreaming Benefactress][b]Full Name: [/b] Helena Alys Kingsley [b]Nicknames/Aliases:[/b] The Dreaming Benefactress [b] Age:[/b] 19 [b] Gender:[/b] Female [b]Occupation: [/b] [b]Description:[/b] Helena is not a terribly imposing creature, topping out at out an unintimidating 5'2. Her build is slim, with light curves on the hips and chest rather than any defined muscle and her face is heart-shaped and girlish, with a set of wide, blue-grey eyes.She has a mop of untidy, red hair, which falls for her lower back. She has very pale skin that is quite prone to burning. She has a notable scar on the one side of her face, neck and shoulder. People often pick Helena out on her somewhat..idiosyncratic sense of fashion. The colours she picks rarely seem to match...nor follow any kin of earthly logic. [b] Personality:[/b]Unorthodox would be the polite way to describe Hel....weird would be the less polite way. She appears a bit peculiar. Many say that Helena seems to live in a world of her own, and in a way that could be said to be true. Helena does not view the world like others do, and her reactions are often seen as inappropriate by those around her. Her behaviour is often thought of as weird, though does seem to follow some sort of logic…in Helena’s mind at any rate…it just tends not to be a level of logic that anyone else has ever encountered before. While it might not initially be clear, she is painfully shy and awkward around people, mainly due to an acute awareness of how people view her. This tendency to assume others think the worst of her often makes her seem rather aloof. Getting past the initial strangeness of the young woman, she is a pleasant, highly intelligent individual. She appreciates the friendship of others, even if it’s not always openly visible, and is very dedicated to those that she is close to. [b] Skills: [/b] -Seems to have an uncanny ability to find things...whether she was looking for them or not. -Surprisingly intelligent. [b] Weaknesses:[/b] -Few notable talents or applicable trade skills. - Has a honey habit that's gotten more than a little out of control. [b] Brief History: [/b] Helena Kingsley is an oddity. A frequent sight along Landybones Road, not without reason, this apparently well-to-do young woman could, poor dress-sense notwithstanding, be taken for the heiress of a decent family. This is not the case. Her surname is little more than a fabrication it seems. For Miss Kingsley was adopted, and not just adopted, adopted by a devil of the brass embassy. The folk of Ladybones Road enjoy chattering and swapping rumours, and there were more than a few about how a devil came to adopt a child. Some claim he took charge of her in exchange for a mother's soul, others that she was the offspring of some elicit relationship between a devil and a woman (was that even possible?). Certainly anyone might give a slight variation on the story. Helena is probably one of the less likely ones to give an answer. The devil, a high-ranking official in the Brass Embassy, was certainly sufficiently well-heeled to provide his charge with anything she desired. She had no need to take up trade or education, and her infernal association was just open enough that she was not often invited to society parties, so she found herself at a loose end much of the time. Eventually reading and painting gave way to exploring the city, which gave way to forays into the use of Prisoner's Honey, which in turn gave way to a honey addiction. As it stands at present, Helena spends much of her time (and the funds gifted to her by her benefactor), seeking and consuming the stuff. Eventually it's going to land her in some trouble. One way or another.[/hider]
