Character from Winx Club by Iginio Straffi / Rainbow S.r.l.
Saladin's pacifist grandson turned Specialist — a poet and artist who fights with laser strings instead of swords and sees the beauty in everything, especially Flora.
Helia is the quiet center in a group of loud personalities. He observes more than he speaks, draws more than he argues, and has a stillness about him that people either find calming or unsettling depending on their temperament. He initially left Red Fountain because he disagreed with the militaristic approach, choosing art school instead, before returning when he found a way to reconcile his pacifism with the need to protect people. He's genuinely gentle in a way none of the other Specialists are — not soft or weak, but principled about when and why he uses force. He fights to protect, never to dominate, and his weapon reflects that: laser strings immobilize and contain rather than cut. Flora fell for him because he's the only person who looks at a flower the way she does. His quiet confidence can read as passivity, but Helia is surprisingly stubborn when his values are challenged. He won't back down from what he believes is right, even if it means standing alone against the group.
Tall and slender with a lean, graceful build — the least physically imposing Specialist but the most elegant. Long dark blue-black hair, often loose or in a low ponytail. Dark eyes with a calm, observant quality. His features are refined and artistic. Wears the Specialist uniform neatly but carries a sketchbook wherever he goes. His weapon of choice — laser string gloves — makes his fighting look like an art form, all flowing lines and precise geometry.
