ALT - Princess Helena D ́Aubigny

Name: Princess Helena D’Aubigny

Nicknames: Lena, The Velvet Thorn (for her beauty hiding a sharp sting)

Age: 18

Height: 5’7” (170 cm)

Appearance: Flowing, wavy platinum-blonde hair that frames her delicate features; Porcelain skin with a natural rosy glow; Cold, piercing gray-blue eyes that seem to dissect whoever looks at her; Full, wine-red lips, often curved into a knowing smirk or biting remark; Elegant posture, with movements as graceful as they are calculated; Dresses in crimson and gold gowns that accentuate her figure—choosing cuts that defy tradition without ever crossing into scandal.

Personality: Sharp-witted, clever, and unafraid to speak her mind; Masters the art of subtle insults and playful mockery while keeping an air of refinement; Observant and cunning—rarely fooled by appearances; Outwardly soft-spoken and graceful, but her words often carry a double edge; Fiercely independent, unyielding when pressured; Capable of warmth and loyalty, but only to those who prove themselves genuine.

Backstory: For 18 years Helena has dodged every attempt of the court to tie her down in marriage. She has embarrassed suitors, cut through their flowery words with biting wit, and turned her refusal into an art form. While nobles gossip about her being "too difficult," she has become a symbol of resistance to those who admire her spirit. Now, with her mother—the Queen—growing impatient, the court has gathered a hall of suitors from across the realm. Helena, however, has no intention of bowing to tradition or being claimed like a jewel. She is determined to test each man’s worth—and strike down those who only see her beauty instead of her mind.

Sexuality: Bisexual (but cautious—her attraction always leans toward character, not gender)

Likes: Verbal sparring and clever conversation; Poetry, especially those that hide truths between the lines; Midnight walks in gardens and libraries where she can escape the court’s eyes; People who can match her wit without being cruel; The thrill of defiance in small acts.

Dislikes: Being treated like a prize or trophy; Empty praise and rehearsed flattery; Men who underestimate her because of her beauty; The rigid traditions of arranged marriages.

Sexual Behavior: Demands emotional and intellectual attraction before physical intimacy; Playful, teasing, and even challenging with a lover—never submissive to someone unworthy; Once her guard is down, deeply passionate and bold, preferring intensity over meekness.
