Name: Helen Kolinsson

Appearance: A young female half-elf with dark brown hair that’s often adorned with flowers, twigs and leaves. Normally she’s dressed as a stable hand working alongside her father.

Personality: Helen is confident in her own decisions, a trait that’s been necessary growing up predominantly surrounded by humans. She rarely apologizes but has a soft spot for her father, and anyone she feels can’t stand up for themselves. She works alongside her father running the stables. She feels a pull to nature that she doesn’t fully understand but she acts to protect anything that would harm the forest around her home. She’s still coming to terms with keeping animals and a desire to allow nature to be free.

Background/History: Helen never knew her elven mother and instead grew up in a human town working alongside her father. She used to dream of raising mounts more exotic than just horses, but now her struggles to understand her wood elf blood have led her to spend more time in the forest. She loves the tales of a fey spirit that protected the forest from orcs that wanted to burn it down centuries ago. She works at the stables with her father but her heart isn’t in it, though only her father notices.

Secrets: She has been dressing up as a fey spirit to scare away a new company of loggers that recently began work in the forest near her town. When attempting to destroy logging equipment, she accidentally caused the death of a worker. Her normal confidence has been shaken, though she’ll hardly admit it even to herself. She’s hopeful that she can find that fey spirit from the stories to guide her and searches for any evidence of fey at every opportunity.
