X | Part-veela application. [ click ] Fireworks exploded at the arrival of Helen Aletheia Doukas during the first hour of 1999. A child was born, both human and siren blood running in her veins. The newborn did not know her fate, not just yet. Her mother and father did not yet know what cruelty they were capable of either. For now, Helen remained safe, loved, and a mystery. Born in Greece, the land of mythology and the roots of many veela families, Helen was raised with the morals of the Greek Myths laced into her upbringing and the importance and dignity that her veela lineage gave her. She was to treat it as such. As the daughter of a full veela — her mother — and having a part-veela (½) for a father, Helen herself had ¾ veela blood in her veins and she inherited many of their veela traits. She had seen her mother become a feral bird-like creature, subjectively her purest essence. As for her father, he was no more modern in his ways than she was- the percentage of veela blood in his family tree did not change that. And so, Helen was raised as such, and at that age, as strong minded as she may have been, every influence she had told her that being a veela was her path toward success. How so, she never questioned. ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The fireworks on New Year's Day had been for her. ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Now, Helen Aletheia Doukas only wanted the truth. ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── | X |

[ the mind's workings pt. I ]
| x | Into The Past, Age 14 —— Helen is decisively vain. She cares about her looks more than anyone, her veela origins highly influencing that. Although she lacks much kindness and patience, Helen is extremely focused on what others think of her and can be very obsessive or clingy. And still, somehow people seem to make their way to her and tell her apart from the crowd… but each friendship never lasts forever. Helen doesn’t realize that trust and deceit matter, she does what works best for her thinking that her friends will like her for it. That’s only the beginning of her egocentric personality. When others choose others above her, though, she takes her rage out on them and “makes them see sense again”.
What Helen does not comprehend, is that to be loved and admired, she must love and show compassion. She is like a siren, beautiful on the outside and desperate of entranced souls to feed on… She craves more than she has space for in her own mind, and so she lets it go by taking her cruelty out on others, on her “inferiors”, not because she wishes to be mean but because she does not understand kindness. But in each and every version of the tale, Troy burns to the ground. Will that be the destiny that the Fates choose for her? |

[ once upon a time... ]
| ┏ ┗ |
[quote]A Biography —— Once upon a time, a siren rose from the abyss of the Greek sea. She masked herself as a human girl, raised by hybrids of siren and man, and learned to live as such. Deep down, though, Helen Aletheia Doukas knew she was different. She did not accept her human-like mould, but didn’t know better either. Her blood may have been that of a part-veela, but she was a siren at heart- always craving and never satisfied. | ┓ ┛ |

| x | Helen’s elders taught her the Greek myths, the only good thing about them. She knew she was more special, you see. After her first instance of magic, Helen was left in England with a “nannie” to raise her, as she was thought to be impure. Although that was nonsense, it shaped her in a way no one had predicted. Her craving to be wanted became stronger, and theories formed in her mind to quell the pain, voices telling her that she was better than any of them, that they simply didn’t understand beauty, that she was not only impure but of a much better race. The tales from Greek mythology had remained stuck in her head, and she thought that if she could be like the heroes in the myths that they told, if she could be like each character, they would give her rights back again. That was the beginning of her reckless streak for justice. |
xx | Over time though, Helen realized that they would never learn, that she could not persuade them to believe something that they weren’t worth believing. And so she thought that if she could make everyone else adore her, love her, be jealous of her and be her friend, her family wouldn’t matter. Either way, she was the prettiest in the land. It would be easy, no?It would be easy, no? ![]() |
xx | The more she grew older, the more obsessive Helen became- because she didn’t always get what she wanted, and didn’t understand why. Her “nannie” did not want her, and when she went to Hogwarts in 2010, she never saw her again. Her elders chose to take her in again, believing that they could use the magic she was learning along with the rumors they heard about her persona. They masked it as saying that they decided that they were wrong about her and were "very sorry". In reality, she was actually meant to be used as a tool, a weapon, nothing more. The magic in her blood could be useful, they reasoned, as she could use it against their rival family. As the Doukas family was well-known, they had enemies, and why not let their impure descendant do the dirty work? After all, their ill-intentions could be masked with their pretty smiles and veela appearance. |

| x | They resorted to taking Helen in for the following two summers as well. Her parents then sent her to Durmstrang Institute after her third year at Hogwarts had ended, taking her in during each summer for the rest of her schooling. Meanwhile, the residents of the Doukas estate effortlessly tried to brainwash Helen. Their reputation was on tier number one, but with their rivals in the game, the 1st place would always be shared. Therefore, they told her countless stories of the “other” side, the evil that was spreading in the world and that she had the potential of being the one to drive it all away, like the Greek heroes she looked up to. Behind the scenes, their intentions were far less innocent than those pretty words made them seem. What they didn’t know, though, is that the following year Helen met the part-veela son of that family. They spent time together without their families realizing it, and fell in love during the summer of 2015 at the age of 16.

[quote]But then she found a snippet in the Daily Prophet, one of the newspapers she liked to keep up with, with a job offer for the Librarian position at Hogwarts. Books had stayed with her since the very beginning. They were her ties to all she was certain of, her beliefs and her doubts. One more try would be worth it. At least for this, she had something to go on. An owl, as white as snow, a letter for a now grounded and kind young woman. Her name? Helen. Its contents? A new beginning, an escape from the abyss that could’ve awaited her, a stable life at last. As of November 4th 2025, Helen Aletheia Doukas is now the librarian at Hogwarts. |

And I, the door between worlds.| x | First Instance of Magic —— Helen was not the perfect daughter, nor was she the perfect friend- but not everything was her fault, as much as people blamed her for it. At the age of eight, the little girl was running playfully through the Granary Square Fountains in the English city of London. A few girls she was friends with had come along, and although the trio didn't live in London themselves, their families had organized a trip together to the UK. It had been fun, up to that point- that day was different though. Her friends had formed a clique, for some reason, and Helen was not in it. Why? They were losers, she was not, the young girl assumed after the incident. The two other girls were merely watching on the sidelines as Helen let her whimsy show and danced through the fountains, playing a game of laser water-spout tag with herself, one could say. Looking back at her "friends", she saw them hesitate, and pulled them into the water world before they could show any sign of resistance. One screamed, a high-pitched, dreadful noise. The other gasped and pulled away. "What the Hell do you think you're doing, Helen?!" "That's so annoying. Stop being such a girlboss weirdo. You're not cool, you know." "Oh, come on. So much drama for such a small amount of water." [ eyeroll from Helen ] "What do you mean, drama? You're the drama queen here. You always look at yourself in the mirror before we go out, but you're literally ugly." "Yeah, seriously." Jealousy? Probably. As a part-veela, Helen was prettier than both of them. But insults are insults, and the Siren did not take that one well. "ENOUGH!" Anger, the pain of betrayal, tears that she desperately tried to blink away- Helen was both upset and overwhelmed with confusion and the pain of bonds severed. The water that had been showering over them with a constant rhythm stopped coming out of the holes in the ground. Silence, not a sound to be heard. It was as if the world was holding its breath*. One second. Two seconds. Three and then four. On exactly the fifth second, the water fountains sprang back to life. Their parents both saw and heard, making the connection quickly- but as they were not wizards or witches themselves, their reaction was different. They thought her to be impure [ read veela application and/or backstory for further elaboration ] . Helen, however, only processed it after she managed to cool herself down (possibly pun-intended), and didn't think much of it. She always knew she was different than her peers. Was this associated to her ancestry, to her blood, perhaps? No, but how was she to know? *(it wasn't, though) |

"She was a storyteller;
she had oh so many tales to tell as she has been through so much herself."
she had oh so many tales to tell as she has been through so much herself."
| x | ══════════════════════════════ Age 26 —— The scars would never fade. But although Helen had undergone traumas, that didn't mean that there could be no happily ever after. For she created herself one, but this time without the need for a prince or fellow princess friends. She didn't need to be loved, independence proved to bring her much farther in her life. Helen's adventurous side was brought to the light as she took it upon herself to travel over the world and experience different cultures. That helped her understand the importance of different beliefs, and that there is not always a right or wrong. Fundamentally, Helen has always been a good person, but her elders were not and her upbringing kind of messed her up. Her strong will allowed her to look past this, though, and manage to move on without mental issues. ══════════════════════════════ |

develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music—Having had strong emotions since as long as anyone could remember, at first she manifested those into jealousy and obsessiveness- but after her heartbreak, it was difficult to move on because of this. And so Helen started channeling them into music and poetry, two healthy ways to express her feelings. Kindness is now a key pointer in her personality as well. Compassion and understanding were traits that the teenage Helen had never really experienced, but as she matured, she became more and more aware that that is actually a key point when wanting to make friends- but also just a moral to live life with in general. During conversations, the young woman tries her best to say what her best self would say in every situation, but her view of that isn't always accurate and in general that doesn't always work out. At the same time though, Helen's potential daydreaming during or overthinking conversations don't exactly contribute to that. the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting peopleAppearance is not a top priority anymore. They may be important, and the Doukas does still glance at herself in the mirror before she goes out to see whether she looks good, but they aren't exactly... a necessity. Sometimes it's important to not a judge a book by its cover. Not that she doesn't judge, but looks do not always define a person. Helen Aletheia Doukas was ready to live as her purest essence, both siren and mortal, once and for all. Find yourself, love. | x |

| x | Wand. 23,9 cm | cherry wood | dragon heartstring Made by Garrick Ollivander and Gregorovitch, Dragon Heartstrings produce wands with the most magic power that are capable of casting quite flamboyant spells. Wands made from Dragon Heartstring also tend to learn more quickly than other types of cores. While they can change allegiance if won in a duel from their original master, they always bond strongly with their current owner. Dragon Heartstring wands tend to be easiest to turn to the Dark Arts, but will not be inclined that way of their own accord. They are however the most prone of Ollivanders three most-used cores to accidents, being a bit temperamental in nature. Cherry is a very rare wand wood that creates wands of strange power. Cherry wood often makes for wands that possess truly lethal power no matter the core. If paired with a core of dragon heartstring however, the wand should never to be teamed with a wizard without exceptional self-control and strength of mind.
