Character Spotlight: Helena Trueheart
13 years ago
A lot of people keep asking me about my characters. And while I don't mind telling people, I figured today I'd be a bit preemptive =D
So, lets begin with the stats, then we'll get to the story n_n
Name: Helena Truheart
Species: Skunk
Age: 52
Height: 5' 9.5"
Profession: "Professional" (Prostitute)
Skunk Scent*: Baby Powder with a hint of something spicy underneath
* All the Truehearts 'scent' their skunk glands, so that in small quantity they smell nice. If they freak out or spray a /lot/ then it'll get to 'smells bad' Each lady scents herself differently, making for a signature aroma.
Helena grew up in the suburbs of Chattanooga, Tennessee - so in a small mountain town. There she was rather popular with the boys, and lived a happy, if simple, life. That was, until she got pregnant at 17 (birthed Duke when she was 18). Being unmarried and all that put too much of a strain on her home life- and she hasn't seen either of her folks since they kicked her out.
But that didn't matter to her, she had a new family of her own.
Helena's a sweet, caring woman - cares greatly for her kids, but since she's not a good dancer, can't sing well, doesn't get along with office environments, etc etc etc.... She used her only real skill of popularity to became a prostitute. A darn good one!
She does what she can to care for her kids - Duke got his own room growing up, the girls shared a room - she did her best to keep her 'work' quiet and in a separate part of the house.
She always kept her kids clean, well fed, and educated. Her only real problems came in explaining to the kids why they all had different daddies (and why none lived with them)
Normally, she's calm - quiet - and gives off that fine southern hospitality one can give when you're raised in the Leave-it-to-Beaver, my-3-sons, Betty Crocker life - and in Tennessee. She still has a fine accent, (and so do the girls when they want, or when they get very upset).
Right now, she lives out in the mountains of Tennessee, to stay close to Duchess. She can't help but feel bad about what happened to her, and so she stays close in case her sad little daughter ever needs help - this has unfortunately influenced Princess (whom is a full 10 years younger then Duchess) to act out (which is why she has piercings and gos Goth).
So there ya go - Helena Trueheart.

All I ask is that before its posted I get a chance to see, and make any necessary corrections - and that when its done I get a copy to post for myself =D
Yours is next n_n
Nice dimensions to the character too.
Question how dose one smell baby powder?
Helena has always been well put together, that's how she got her job lol
And you take the scent of baby powder, and condense it. =D
