First Impression»» [/b]
Personality: Helena can be summed up in three words: Controlling, Assuming, and Sharp.
Controlling: Ever since she completed her first year of Hogwarts, Helena became fiercely obsessed with being in charge of every little aspect of her life. This need to have absolute control over her surroundings soon spread to people as well, and after a few trial-and-error lessons, she became an expert at manipulation. However, her issues with control are a two-way street. She hates being under anybody's power, and struggles to find ways to break the rules and spite her superiors without actually being openly aggressive or crude. The only way to earn her respect is to somehow find even footing with her, or to consistently beat her at her own game.
Assuming: Helena states everything with a prideful conviction, overly confident with hersef and what she believes are facts. She sizes everybody up in a single glance, and when she looks at you it's as though she's swallowing you whole. She underestimates even the most dangerous of enemies, and because of her fast temper, even after learning the strength of an opponent she neglects to keep herself in check. Prideful to a fault, Helena sometimes charges forward into the fire without considering the inevitable consequences.
Cunning: Surpassing booksmarts, Helena knows how to get what she wants from people. Having dipped her toes into various pools of expertise and information, she possesses her own type of genius that comes equipped with a razor-sharp edge and an argumentative form of reasoning.
Self Image»» [/b]
Reaching up to 5'9, she is lithe, willowy, graceful, and blond. The word angelic does not apply. There is something so finely cut and manicured about her that she gives off more of a devilish vibe, and her critical blue eyes are piercing in their coolness, always calculating ways to manipulate and control her surroundings. Very light in hue, they're most comparable to powder-blue. There are no discrepancies in her pupils, and certainly no odd flecks of random color. Around the edge is a ring of dark navy, like a blue eclipse. Just like Helena, they are precise and matter-of-fact. Nothing but sharp absoluteness can be found in her gaze, even when Helena is wrong or lying.
Positive Traits»» [/b]
- Very intellectual- Helena reads constantly and has a plethora of knowledge in almost every area of learning.
- Has a high tolerance for pain- Helena can physically take a punch, and refuses to acknowledge emotional truama.
- Can decieve those who are untrained to spot discrepancies- Helena is such a good liar that she could decieve almost anybody.
- Has a high capacity for knowledge surrounding plants and poisons- Helena is particularly smart when it comes to these subjects, part of the reason that she is such an excellent potion's professor. Her true place is in the Greenhouse, but she refuses to admit it.
- Knows how to get what she wants- Helena has more than one way of being seductive, and when she sets her mind to it, she can wheedle anything out of anybody.
Negative Traits»» [/b]
- Is incredibly stubborn in all areas of her life- Helena can't admit failure, and she refuses to accept defeat. This is the cause for most of her unhappiness.
- Fears both aging and mutilation- Helena loves her beauty and doesn't ever want to age, and along with that theme of lost appearance, she simply can't bear the thought of being cut up with a knife. She has no scars and would like to keep it that way.
- Does not cope well with love- Helena won't even admit that she feels anything but spite and smug superiority, so she is unable to face or deal with real emotions like love. Accepting affection, even from her brother, is difficult for Helena. She does not like to appear vulnerable.
- Dreads her mother- Even though she hates Kendral, Helena knows that all of her wealth and money comes from her parents. Therefore, unless she wants to live off of her meager teacher's salary, Helena knows that she has to obey her mother's whimsical commands, however degrading they may be.
- Has a tendancy to be rather vain- Obsessed with appearance, while Helena is hardly a strutting peacock, she knows she looks good and she takes pride in her appearance. She's almost OCD when it comes to looking perfect, and Helena is often too focused on herself, blinding her to other people's plights or dilemmas.

Distinctive Features»» [/b]
Helena's eyes are usually the first thing to grab a person's attention, but her entire facial structure is unique and startling. She has no birthmarks or piercings, but Helena can often be seen with a pair of glasses on.
Dress Style»» [/b]
Helena dresses like modern royalty away from work, but opts for a more subtle form of expensive clothing while at Hogwarts. She wears only the finest fabrics: smooth shirts of crushed silk, crisp button-up Oxfords, heavy black slacks, pristine robes. She prefers greens and blues, and will oftentimes wear outfits that show her Slytherin pride. A thin chain of gold or silver can often be found around her neck, dripping down between slightly exposed cleavage. The pendant on the ends of these chain never changes...a small, unmistakable Prince Crest.

Social Status»» [/b]
Helena is generally disliked by her female students and fantasized about by her male ones. She is a difficult teacher, extremely demanding and harsh, and the fact that she's every teenager's wet dream come true does not help matters. Her name appears often in the string of gossip updates, and more than once Helena has had to assign detentions to students for being inappropriate in front of (or to) her. She distances herself from her colleagues and has very few people that she feels comfortable having a casual conversation, making social situations brief and uncomfortable. In short, Helena Prince is an enigma.

Family»» [/b]
Father: Francis Prince
Mother: Kendral Avery-Prince
Past»» [/b]
History: Helena knew what house she was going to be in before she could count. The moment she was born, the heavy burden of being perfect was placed upon her. As a child, she was adored and smothered by her mother the way a pretty pet might be, and though she was certainly cared for and "loved" she never was able to grow close with her parents. Her mother was unable to show real physical affection, and everything she did to Helena, from forcing her through manner school to dictating what she could and could not eat, was purely in the interests of social popularity, nothing more.
After a few year at Hogwarts Helena became her own person and went home loathing her mother. Unable to separate herself from social obligations and the pretend way that she and her mother acted in front of guests and visitors, behind doors she began to rebel. After she graduated, she wanted to move out due to serious complications, but quickly found that the only money she had actually belonged to her parents. Frustrated and unsure of how to get a job, she struggled to keep her temper in check. Playing by her mothers rules, she still lived a lapdog's luxury, though her position as her mother's pretty, polite daughter only went as far as social dinners.
An added complication also tarnished her already squandered childhood...through no input of her own, Helena was promised at age nine to a pureblood boy named Shadin Khal, exclusively because her mother wanted to enhance the Prince family's wealth and social status. Unfortunately, Helena loathed Shadin from the get-go, and the feeling of hatred was mutual. Despite this fact, Kendral Prince and Gloria Prewett insisted on the marriage. Helena was forced to spend many hours a week with Shadin Khal, and against their will, the two grew up together. Then, Shadin's mother died in their fifth year of Hogwarts, and Shadin immediately broke off the engagement. Kendral begged him not to, and hassled both her daughter and her previous future-son-in-law, but both Helena and Shadin were glad to be rid of each other...
Except they weren't really rid of each other at all.
Placed in opposing houses, Helena and Shadin's hatred for one another was legendary. They fought over everything, took every chance they had to critisize one another, and refused to acknowledge the horrible truth that deep down, there was something dark and secret that was beginning to stir in their guts, something unspeakable...love.
Now Helena and Shadin are still stuck with each other, and even with Hogwarts being as huge as it is, there doesn't seem to be enough room in it for the both of them.
