Helena Heart-thief
"Night hags are thieves and merchants of mortal souls. They haunt the Ethereal Plane, where they prey upon mortals in their dreams, debilitating them with horrific nightmares as they rest. A night hag may find a particular target and haunt them continuously over the course of weeks, slowly and cruelly breaking down the victim’s will and ability to resist, until their soul is forfeit.
A night hag is a canny mastermind and soul broker, willing to consider any deal as long as she is convinced she has the upper hand. Although a night hag finds it easy to travel the Ethereal Plane and prey upon helpless souls that can’t fight back, these souls are also the least desirable to the evil outsiders the night hag bargains with, and so a night hag gathers allies and minions that allow her to prey on more potent souls without personally risking herself. Their favored minions are nightmares, with whom they share a special bond. Above all, night hags avoid fighting foes that can harry them on the Ethereal Plane, picking fights only when they are certain they can escape."
Helena is a cunning manipulator, constantly working many different angles to get what she wants. She covets Olga, resenting the fact she is the leader of the Coven, and is constantly seeking ways to gain the upper hand, but the Moon Hag always seems to see her coming. Even with this not so secret rivalry, Helena is a crucial member of the Coven, the main fixer, closer, able to find and procure things the others can't. She too understands the security that comes with numbers, and that the sum of one, and one, and one, is greater than three.
While Karina is more adept in soulcraft, Helena takes much delight in bargaining with and trading for souls... and of course, holding them hostage. To this end, when Karina found and woke the soul of Karst the Elder, Helena wasted no time in finding his corpse, removing the head, and holding it as ransom for the tormented soul of the Fallen Hero to do her bidding.
