occupation ; Helle is a children's book writer. She's not the most famous children's author but her series about the Pepper Sisters is fairly popular.
the appearance
height & weight ; Helle likes to describe her frame as full and fabulous. She's not horribly obese, but there is defintely a little extra Hellewise to love. Her curves are generous and she likes them. And as she is very proud of saying she has one of the best racks this side of the ocean. She has no issue admitting that she weighs 190 lbs. Fortunately some of her weight is offset by her height being 5'10 doesn't make her the tallest woman in the world, but she defintely a prescence to be noticed.
hair ; Helle is not a natural blonde and she'll tell you all about it because she doesn't mind sharing. However blonde has been her color of choice for over ten years. She does occasionally add a burst of color like pink or blue. She keeps her hair about shoulder length and enjoys putting it into many different playful styles. Her favorites are of the the many variations of pigtails one can imagine. Though when she's trying to be more serious which she isn't especially good at she'll wear her hair mostly loose just pinning the front part back with a bow of some sort. Though of course given the fact that said bow tends to be very colorful and odd doesn't help her seem very serious.
eyes ; Helle's eyes are actually very hard to see. Between the glasses she is always wearing and the fact that her face is more often than not squinched up in a grin or a smile of some sort. When you can see them they are fairly almond shaped and a pretty dark brown color. They do tend to look pretty cheerful and full of life, but her eyes definitely not the easiest part of her to see.
facial features ; Helle is defintely no super model, but her face tends to be more cute than anything else. She has very obvious cheeks that she assures everyone are not pinchable unless they want her to bite their fingers clear off. Her face is fairly round and pleasantly filled out. Her mouth looks just a little on the wide side but as it's usually stretched in a smile of some sort it's not that noticeable. Her smile is of course one of the most notable things about her and it is defintely her most attractive feature. Her nose is also a little wide, but it matches most of her other features. She often insists she'd look ridiclous with a itty bitty little button nose or some roman schnoz.
distinguishing features ; If you don't count a sparkling personality as a distinguishing features Helle can't really help you in this department. Her skin is pretty smooth and while she doesn't like the word flawless she has no birthmarks or overly noticeable scars. She does have one tattoo on her left butt cheek of a pair of lips she says it's so people know where to start when she tells them to kiss her butt. Of course for a distinguishing feature this is a doozy especially since she has no problem flashing it around.
style ; There are a lot of people who look at Hellewise and laugh at the idea of her having style. It is obviously looking at her that she dresses to please no one but Hellewise Knox. Her style is ecletic to say the best. She loves bright colors, crazy patterns, odd materials. As for cuts she doesn't have a partiular favorite she can wear something retro and conservative or something risque and daring and not care. She is defintely a woman who doesn't dress to hide just how much of her there is too love. She is just as likely to wear a barely decent skirt as she is to wear a knee length dress. The only thing you aren't likely to see her in is pants. She prefers the airiness of skirts and dresses and they make her feel very feminine.

the personality[/color]
likes ;
FANTASIES[/u] Helle lives in a fantasy world and no not that sort of fantasy world. Her world is full of fantastical things, because she's not one to limit her imagination. She loves living in her own little world that isn't quite in touch with the real world. She enjoys beleiving in things shes know really isn't real. She doesn't care if it's a little odd, but she feels a world with fantasy is just a dead world spinning around because that's what it was built to do. So she is quiet happy to fill her head full of ideas like santa clause and a fairy the brings you fudge whenever you are sad.
TEDDY BEARS[/u] Sometimes people suck. People say mean things, look at you weirdly, tell you to grow up. However there is one creature that will never ever let you down. One trusted friend that will never be to busy, never not have the time to listen, or be willing to be compassionate and caring and it's the Teddy bear. The Teddy bear is always there ready to cuddle and love your worries away. Helle has a massive collection of them and adds to her collection all the time. Her favorite is Mr. Snuggles who is a giant white polar bear that more often or not sleeps right next to her.
SODA[/u] Some people like coffee, some tea, but Helle is a soda girl all the way. She doesn't like the taste of coffee and thinks tea is boring, but Soda never disappoints. She likes a huge variety of soda's from orange to cola to fentiman's. Of course her very favorite is an american soda called Mountain Dew. She likes everything about soda. The smell the taste even the carbonation that tickles her nose sometimes. She can rarely be found without a soda somewhere on her person. Her friends are quiet used to her brining along a cooler of soda's with her whenever they go somewhere soda won't be readily available. She insists if she stops drinking soda she'd got into immediate soda withdraws and no one wants that.
THINKING OUT OF THE BOX[/u] The world well at least the part that Helle doesn't live in is fairly restrictive. A lot of people have some very strange ideas of what is normal and acceptable. Helle quite enjoys being outside that restrictive little box. She likes living in her own little world where A doesn't necessarily lead straight to B. She sees no reason why people have to all think the same. She likes having a unique view on things and thinks that people who do manage to think outside the box offer a new and refreshing view on things. A person who thinks outside the box is in her world a definite asset. She thinks that while adults try to deny this fact children get it alot easier hence why her series about a pair of elephant sisters traveling through a magical underwater world is popular enough to keep her in royalty checks and under contract to make more.
MEN[/u] For the most part Helle can be pretty child like in her behaviors. She's one who's never really liked the idea of growing up. However her way of approaching the world with an almost child like wonder doesn't effect the way she see's men. She might act like a kid, but she's all woman and boy oh boy does she love men. She loves looking at them, flirting with them, touching them. She likes just about everything about them even the assy ones who really are only good to look at. She especially loves flirting with men and is known for saying some pretty off the wall pick up lines to men.
dislikes ;
REALITY[/u] Reality is to state it simply a total drag. She isn't completely oblivious to the real world. She does take care of things like paying rent etc., but other than that she prefers not to worry about reality too much. It's usually either way to dramatic or just really really depressing. Her little fantasy world where she stubbornly refuses to beleive in everything good is a much nicer place to be. Reality is after all highly overrated. She thinks the world would be a lot better if more people lived in a more fantasyish world.
BOOK CRITICS[/u] As an author Helle has pretty good reasons to not like book critics, but mostly she just doesn't get them. What sorta dinkus gets off by reading and critizing other people's work? Like the readers can't read and decide on their own if it's any good. The funny thing is that Helle usually gets fairly good reviews as her world involving the Pepper sisters is very creative and captivating, but she still doesn't like them. Not even the one who called Helle her favorite Children's writer. She thinks one of the job requirements if to be a complete butthead, because no one nice would ever want to take a job where it was their job to tear apart something someone had put a lot of time and effort into.
DIET FOOD[/u] As Hellewise is often heard to say she has always believed that she is Full and Fabulous. She likes her generous figure and therefore isn't a big fan of diet food. She does eat veggies and will indeed eat healthy food like salads and so such when she wants to, but she hates the very idea of diet food. Diet food is not only gross, but it's a symbol of a world that isn't ready to accept itself. This is of course her biggest problem. She thinks people should love themselves for who they are. So she has a big issue with diet food and dn't even get her started about diet soda.
BOXES[/u] People are varied and wonderful creatures sorta like snowflakes no one is exactly the same as the others. It is in Helle's mind one of the best things about Humanity. This being said she doesn't really like how a large part of humanity likes to pigeon hole people into labeled boxes. If you do this you go here if you were this you go here if you belevie this you get shoved over here. The whole thing is ridiclous to Hellewise as people are varied you could spend a hundred years labeling one person and never label every single thing they are so it's just not fair to label someone and throw them in the right area as if that all there is too them.
DREAM KILLERS[/u] There is nothing in this entire world worse than a dream killer. A person who destroys the fantastical realities children and young hearted people make for themselves just can't be a good person. Helle is known to go postal when she witnesses such things. She doesn't beleive anyone should crush a child's dreams. Sure maybe it's unrealisitic maybe they child will never be the great fairy queen of muffin land, but there's no need to point that out. She thinks the young should be allowed to dream as long as they can since the world has a distressing tendency to kick the dreams out of people.
POTTY MOUTHS[/u] One of the woman's biggest pet peeves is cursing. While she realizes as an adult you should be able to speak however you want she still hates it. She thinks it's rude and grumpy and not at all cool. She has no compunctions at all about chewing someone out about cursing around her. She of course almost never curses and if you hear her utter a swear word even a little one you know things are in really really bad shape. She hates cursing enough that she's invented all sorts of little words to express the words the curse words usually express the best. Her favorite is of course fudge figgles.
strengths ;
CREATIVE[/u] When Helle says she has more creativity in her little pinky than a room full of people she's not exageratting. Helle is one of the most creative people most are likely to ever meet. Her mind works in amazing and mystifyng ways. There is never just one solution in Helle's world, because she uses her imagaination and that means there will always be a world of possiblities out there. Her creativity helps her in many ways not only is her creativity her livelihood and the best way she expresses her self, but it makes her a handy little problem solver as she will often think of solutions that no one else would think of.
COMPASSIONATE[/u] Helle can be a little off the wall and sometimes she can be a little more blunt than most people would like, but at the core of her the woman is all about the compassion. She feels for people and will go above and beyond to help people out. She's not very good at seeing someone needing or hurting and not doing something about it. Some people say she often gets conned because she's not one to be skeptical, but helping people makes her feel good so she doesn't stop.

WILLFULLY NIAVE[/u] 5+ sentences to elaborate on this point
IMPRACTICAL[/u] 5+ sentences to elaborate on this point
boggart ; Helle might have one of the weirdest Boggarts in the world as if she was ever confronted by a boggart she would see Santa dying. And while the death of Santa would obviously be devestating the image is actually a resprestation of the death of imagination. Helle finds the idea of a world without imagination to be chilling and terrfying. Without dreams and fantasies what's the point of living?
amortentia ; Cotton Candy, Glitter, and Jer
erised ; To make the world see that living in a dream world isn't really that bad. Reality is totally for suckers.
veritaserum ; what is your character's deepest secret?
dementor ; what is your character's worst memory?
patronus ; The Patronus is one of Helle's best charms not that she often gets a chance to do it, but when they covered it in school she was the very first person to get it. Her current best memory is the first time she managed to get a publisher to bring her fantasy world of the Pepper sisters to life. Her Patronus takes on the form of a kitten.
personality ; Almost violently optimistic, dreamer, opininated, honest, earnest, Sweet, Caring, Peter Pan in girl form. Smarter than she looks, blunt, self loverGet your mind out of the gutter she doesn't mean that. She simply means that no one will ever love Helle as much as she loves her self. She is happy with the sort of person she is the good and the bad. She likes that she
the school life[/color]
school attended ; Hogwarts
former house ; Hufflepuff
favourite subject ; Oddly enough her favorite subject was History of magic. Professor Binns was boring as all could be, but Goblin Wars, damsels in distress, and dark wizards that fill the wizarding world history always appealed to her fantastical side.
worst subject ; Divination was her least favorite class. She took it because she thought it would be fantastical, but it was actually far to based in reality for her. She never could make herself care about the alignment of the planet and such things.
