Skills
Misdirection
Helena uses her advanced gear to temporally cloak, any damage given will result in a critical hit at the loss of her cover.
"Not a trace.”
"Keep your eyes open.”
"Looking for someone?”
Someone To Watch Over Me- {Aid}
While finishing off an enemy or closing her cloaking device Helena can usurp health points from the enemy. These health points are then distributed throughout the team.
"Look no further, I got ya.”
“A little something to hang on to!”
“Take your fill.”
Now You See Me-{Passive}
Helena can use her cloaking device to project herself around the enemies from all directions causing them to become confused and disoriented. Her projected self can only be dismissed if Helena takes damage.
"Missed me, missed me!”
"Over here good-lookin’!"
"Hit me with your best shot!"
All’s Well That Ends Well-{Offense}
Helena projects a shield around herself that turns her into a juggernaut. With her shield activated she can literally charge into enemies head on with little effort on her part. However, the more enemies she takes on the weaker her shield gets till it is completely depleted, leaving her defenseless.
"Charge!"
"You vs. me, come on!"
"Die, monster, die!"

----------- • Personality Information • -----------
Personality
Helena could be described as charismatic, eccentric and naïve. She carries herself with an air of “don’t talk when I’m talking” and “did I ask for your feedback?” If there is one thing she hates more than conflict it’s being talked over. Though, she’s been known to go on and on whether anyone’s listening or not. Given her trade in fine, stolen and rare wares most just shut up and deal with it.
With an outlook permanently set on the bright side of things, it takes a lot to grind her down. But don’t mistake this chipper outlook for naivety, undermining an enemy is a tactic that’s rarely in the oppositions favor.
However, while Helena is great in a scrape, long term fights wear her down far too easily. She uses her wits and façade gullible nature to put down her enemies before they even get too close. Her eye for tinkering has also helped keep up a decent, and deadly, barrier between her and that big ol’ world out there.
All in all, Helena is a kindred spirit eager to see as much of what she can in this vast void of space. If she gets to make some money off of folks along the way than that’s just the cherry on top.
Habits
Helena seldom removes the sheath around her waist, which has become frayed throughout the years, and is constantly nicking her hands on her knife because of it.
Likes
Helena enjoys scavenging immensely, she has a special place in her heart for travel and exploration. She's also a lover of star-gazing and hoarding collecting moonstone.
Dislikes
Helena hates being rushed and operates poorly under pressure. She can grow very frantic in quite spaces alone but doesn't seem to mind them when with other people. She also has issues with being used, despite her trade demanding so.
Shortcomings
That gullible facade of hers has gotten her cheated on in more dealings than she'd like to mention. Sometimes, she gets so caught up in the act that she doesn't notice when the tables get turned.
Besides this, she tends to only see the best of an individual and can be easily manipulated.

History
Helena was raised on Elipse within the Dahl mining colony where her parents worked. From a young age she’d always been interested in that vast void of space that surrounds them all and took to studying the stars and other space related doodads at the spaceport of Concordia. During The Cracking, Helena was visiting Concordia and was oblivious to the whole event till word came that she lost both her parents. Helena was heartbroken and became dangerously reclusive, avoiding all other refugees.
That is, till someone wanted something and was willing to pay a pretty price for it. Helena began scavenging as much of Elipse as she could to turn a profit and reunite people with what they’ve been missing. During this period of her life, Helena was a wraith upon the moon only ever appearing when she had dealings and remaining hidden when she did not.
Once Hyperion started taking interest in Pandora and started building the space station Helios did Helena resurface from her somber hidey-hole for good. She took great interest in Hyperion then and joined the ranks officially as an infiltrator. Though, word of mouth says if you need exotic goods that may or may not be permitted on the space station just give her a ring.
It was a decent living for a while, but with all things in Helena’s life, it went South real fast.
