It didn't matter that she studied them, trying to discern for herself the perfect victim. It did not matter that her criteria was to get the 'bad ones'. Sweet Mammy believed in her, and for some odd reason this resonated with Helen on such a level that she began to doubt her actions.<br><br> But not enough to stop entirely.<br><br> |
+ | So while secretly continuing to hunt the shipyards every other night, Helen also began to accompany Jaymar to Westside, where he explained to her the territories held by the assorted gangs of the area. Initially sticking close to the areas around the camp, Jaymar began taking Helen on meetings with a variety of people that Helen, in her ever growing intellect, could only describe as 'ominous'. It dawned on her that Jaymar was very well connected with particular individuals that were adept in magic, and that many of these meetings consisted of information in exchange for yet more information. Often there was some prized object of either personal value which Jaymar was tasked with acquiring, in exchange for information of one drop point or another shipment of valuables that he and Helen would then steal, if the 'set up' was right.The end result would oft times be food and clothing and other niceties for the camp which Jaymar kept a list of inside the pockets of his coat. The camp would be happy and grateful, and cheer as Jaymar's usual 'hand out' began. <br><br> | ||
+ | Helen had noticed something odd about all of this, and the slow creeping suspicions seemed to assert themselves more and more until she finally had to voice them in her own mind, if no where else.<br><br> | ||
+ | Jaymar, for one, was also a user of this 'magic'. She had noticed this when they would be in the middle of a scuffle, the ruffians usually trying to protect their loot. The slight waving of the fingers, the muttered words, the mysterious flashes of lights. It seemed Jaymar forgot how well she could hear and see.<br><br> | ||
+ | Or the individuals that Jaymar introduced her to. They all seemed a part of this magic world, disguised oft times to the regular human eye. Helen noted these things but said nothing, as she could not sense that Jaymar himself was a dubious boy. But she did wonder why he wasn't growing up with parents, as most human children did. Even the homeless ones in the Refuge were with their parents. Those that weren't were usually taken under Sweet Mammy's or Sunshine in the Skye's wing.<br><br> | ||
+ | As they stole through the shadows of Westside, Jaymar was teaching her things about the humans here and the world they lived in. How life wasn't always fair by default and that some indeed were overlooked by the plethora of superheroes flying about in the sky above, off to another terrible deed that needed their assistance. To survive these streets one needed a cunning most didn't have, especially if you were born with a golden spoon in their mouth. Those that could fend for themselves usually didn't need these powers the caped and pearly toothed Champions or the other assorted heroes possessed, though having them was definitely in one's favor. Jaymar also explained to her that even though most here in Westside, indeed all over the world, tended to their lives as best as they could, humans were prone to mistakes. With these mistakes often only realized when they got older, and often after the damage was already done. No less with superheroes. He would often have a hard look on his face, trying to hide as best he could that he was talking from experience.<br><br> | ||
+ | Helen realized that Jaymar was far older in mind than he was in body, and felt a kinship because she could clearly see the difference between her and the children she saw on the streets, walking with their parents. Or the children in the camp. She found them to be weaker compared to herself, in mind and in body. Indeed she felt no kinship at all with their wants or desires, it was a very alien idea to her to be so...helpless.<br><br> | ||
+ | It was an idea that would reiterate for her how different she was from these people, and soon she began to struggle with the feelings of loneliness. Was she truly the only one of her kind in this world? Hadn't perhaps others managed to escape the giant monster known as Ironclad's rampage through the ship? With these questions the dreams began again. And this time she could only recollect bits and pieces of each dream, but never an entire picture.<br><br></p></div></div><br> | ||

+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Helen loves the streets, they are her hunting ground when out catching criminals or in search of answers she can't find elsewhere. The throb of life at night in Millenium City is to her liking: the crime, the seediness, the despair. She lurks in the shadows watching it all.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Roast Beef Sandwiches. She will cut a b%!#§ for those.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;"> History. Helen's unique predicament in being able to recall memories and experiences from those in her genetic line going back to the beginning of her species has formed a love for history and in particular rare and valuable objects.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">The Kill. Though not many know how deep her enjoyment of this act goes.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Undercover Work. Helen works meticulously on the identities she is either given or that she herself creates. This is her 'in' into human behavior, and much like method acting, she takes on the full persona, recalibrating her image inducer to include any detail she might consider worthy.</li><br><br> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Helen hates failure. Her nature as a superior predator dictates to her that to fail is to go hungry and to go hungry is to die. She'll never go out without having the last laugh, or at least try very hard not to.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Human social constructs. She is wary of them. Helen feels humans tend to mask their actions in a way that puzzles her. But doesn't surprise her. Her short years on Earth have given her plenty of time to study and contemplate the human race, and she finds herself close to only a select few, distrusting everyone else.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Uncertainty. She is mostly unconcerned with this emotion in battle or hunting situations, but the disappearance of the whole community of the Refuge still nags at her to no end. She has suspicions but is unable to find a starting point to look for answers.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Cocooning. She has found the experience to be the one thing she hates about her alien physiology.</li> | ||
+ | <li style="padding:5px 0;">Primus. Though she works with them she hasn't forgotten her experiences in Area 53. She's sworn no binding allegiance and is patiently waiting her time to make a few names on her list regret having tortured her.</li> | ||
