Overview

A dapper-looking woman with a soft voice, Helena's an employee that most are adviced to not bother. She's often wrapped from neck to toe in bandages, but that doesn't stop the pseudo-mummified bar employee from dressing up neatly on top of it. She refuses inquiries to the matter and advises people to stick to business. When she's working (which isn't often, fifteen hours a week) she works as a contact point, guiding people to the right individuals to get what they want. Matching runners and juicy services, employers and fixers, you name it. She's a matchmaker, but those who are Awakened and work with her mention that she's absolutely unbearable to be around. Indeed, she carries a very narrow area of Astral Hazing around her, spreading barely thirty centimeters from her body. Assensing her is not required; she finds it offensive.

Aspects Description

Aspect	Description
Cursed Luck	Something plagues Helena. Each time she's asked for aid, if she has to perform a check of any kind roll a secret 3d6. On a glitch, the opposite result occurs. On a critical glitch, the runners' opposition somehow gets a leg up on whatever it is they tried to have Helena help with.
Above Aspect pending approval. Please notify Thematics.
Bridgemaker	Helena knows several Shadow Communities and get runners acquainted with those of other networks.
Damned	As a Dante's Inferno employee, she can get you in free of charge; all it costs is a chip! 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓'𝐒 𝐀 𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐏 𝐏𝐄𝐑 𝐑𝐔𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐑, 𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐄!
Christian	Active in various Christian communities, despite being apparently a pariah to most she still knows plenty of people and how to get in touch with them, even if she can't facilitate it herself.
Magisec	Familiar with Awakened Hangouts and particularly well warded, magically secure safehouses for rent. Ask her where to go if you want to avoid spirit snooping, she knows a guy!
Societal	Yes, she even knows a thing or two about upper class folks. AAA corporation AR fashion wearing trash that throws away money at the drop of a hat - yeah, those guys.
Infobrokers	Knowledge is power and Helena knows several powerful individuals. If you need to get in touch with someone who knows the right things, ask - these people always have steep prices!
