A fellow first year, Helena al-Kassas has yet to decide which college she wants to join, but it hasn't made her any less excited about being at Bruxaria. Having originally grown up in the rural Shara Colonies of Hazar, a small cluster of out of the way islands with little more than a few naval bases and fishing communities, being in a larger, bustling college town is full of new things to do and new people to meet. She enjoys art, cooking, and gardening, and is rarely seen anywhere without her loyal rooster familiar, Sammy.
 
One of her cousins also attends Bruxaria as a third year.
