Personality: Helen was a sheltered child naturally leading her towards a more rambunctious and adventurous youth despite her parents insistence on constantly watching her or having someone constantly at her back. She was a naturally gifted child thanks to all the faerie godmothers at her birth but she never put these talents to use as she ignored the finer arts in life to go skip rocks or explore the palace wall. She was always looking over the other side and wondering what life was like on the other side.

Helen took an interest in magic at a very young age and despite her parents initial resistance they finally let her study sending in tutors from all other the kingdom but no one could ever keep up with her. She was fascinated with magic, specifically dark and powerful magic. She developed a thirst for knowledge of any her kind and was constantly trying to learn and teach herself things. Ultimately this curiosity almost led her to certain demise as she pricked her finger on a spindle and was sent into a deep sleep for years. Helen hates thinking of all the years she spent asleep, she hates feeling useless and even moreso... she hates feeling helpless and weak.

After waking up Helen was changed. She was angry and vengeful, she wanted to pick up where she left off but that was years ago, people were already moving on and expecting her to do the same. She did not want to marry a man only because he had kissed her and woken her up from her sleep. She had always been an independent soul and no amount of sleep could squash that. She is constantly trying to prove herself and better herself without help from every person around her. She wants to be a great mage some day she does not want to be Queen, mother, or wife.

Weaknesses: She has a tendency to be selfish, greedy, and childish all ranging from the fact that years of her life had been taken away. She has an incredible soft spot for Puss if he were in danger of any kind she would willing lay her life on the line for him. She is often in trouble with someone for doing something she was not supposed to be doing. Far too curious for her own good.
Quirks: *Although she is not particularly fond of her own talent, she often sings to herself and to Puss
*She won't go near a spindle
Secrets: *Killed her husband

Skills & Abilities: She's naturally musically inclined something she considers a useless gift bestowed upon her by a fearie god mother at her birth.
Supernatural abilities: Magic that she has learned from Puss.

History: Helen was born the first and only Princess to her relieved parents who had been wanting a daughter for so long. The Kind and Queen had invited all the faerie godmothers in the land to celebrate their daughter's brith except for one, Carabosse who had decided to curse the girl so that when she turned fifteen she would prick her finger on a spindle and fall into a deep sleep.

Growing up Helen was incredibly sheltered by her parents which lead her to harbor a certain sense of adventure and curiosity about all the things going on around her. She was constantly asking questions and learning from everyone. She started studying magic at a young age continues to this day, now focusing more on the old ways with her mentor and soaking up as much knowledge as she can.

Just as Carabosse had assumed though, at the age of eightteen Helen pricked her finger on a spindle and fell into a deep sleep for years. No one could wake her and she lay in bed, her usual busy body looking completely at peace. Finally, a prince from a neighboring kingdom made his way to the sleeping castle and was taken by Helen's beauty. In a creepster moment he declared his undying love for her and kissed her. It was jolt she needed to wake up and it was not "true love" that did it, more like pure revulsion. The Prince forced himself on her, if she had not agreed to take him as her husband she would have been shamed by the public and by her parents.

When she woke up, she was pissed. She was pissed at the world for letting her sleep for so long and then expecting her to just give up any of her life experiences so she could get married and start having babies. She wanted to live, she wanted to see the world and learn things that only her faerie godmother could teach her. Unfortunately, the Prince "slew" Carabosse, supposedly killing Helen's only useful source of information. This was where the story was supposed to end happily, the Prince taking Helen as his bride and riding off into the sunset but Helen wanted no part in this.

She was so enraged that a few weeks later she killed her brand new husband and ran away. She was found by no other than Puss de Carabas who took her as a protege to teach her the old ways.
