Helen Virtis

Helen Virtis was a homid Black Furies Theurge who lived in the 19th century United States.

Biography

Helen was raised by her grandmother after her parents were slain by Black Spiral Dancers in Greece. In order to escape the increasing violence and decay of the Old World, the two Black Furies traveled to the United States.

Helen and her grandmother settled in Kansas. She learned the traditions of the Black Furies while living there, and became an adult during a battle against a vicious band of Storm-Born that were terrorizing isolated settlements. When Helen heard about a Black Fury cub who needed a new watcher, she volunteered for the task and relocated to Hatter's Well.

Since she has started teaching Mary Hatter, Helen has entertained the hope that she might open the young woman's mind to more thoughts and possibilities than her deeply religious background and upbringing allows for.

Profile

  • Image: Helen Virtis is a lean woman in her mid-30s. She has olive skin, brown eyes and long black hair in which the first strands of gray have started to appear. She favors dresses that are dark in color, though she can frequently be seen wearing more practical men's clothing when she is at home. Helen's lupus form has black fur that is shot through with gray.
  • Roleplaying Hints: You are friendly, outgoing, and well-liked by the citizens of Hatter's Well. Publicly, you serve as the community's school teacher, but privately your primary interest lies in teaching Mary Hatter about her nature and aspects. While you decline the advances of your suitors gracefully, you don't accept any nonsense from men who would try to force themselves on you, either physically or emotionally.
  • On the other hand, you are aware that you aren't getting any younger. You have a responsibility to bear young so that your line may continue, and you need to find a suitable mate. So far, you have only met one man in your life who you can respect - and no other man will father your child. Unfortunately, a pack of Storm-Born slew him a few years ago. Ever since, you have tried getting over the memory of his strong presence while searching for his equal.
