PLEASE REMEMBER THAT HUNTRESS’ REVENGE AGAINST THE MAFIA IS IN THE PAST FOR HER. SHE STARTED OUT HUNTRESS AT NINETEEN TO HUNT DOWN THE MAFIA TO AVENGE HER FAMILY ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ — AND GROWING DISILLUSIONED WITH THE IDEA OF “BLOOD BEING THICKER THAN WATER”, ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ HELENA CHOSE TO DECENTER HER LOYALTY TO HER FAMILY AND INSTEAD EXPAND HER VIGILANTISM EFFORTS FOR HELPING PEOPLE IN GENERAL. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ NOT JUST THE VICTIMS OF THE MAFIA, NOT JUST GOTHAM, BUT AS A WHOLE, BECAUSE SHE IS A HERO AND HAS BEEN FOR YEARS EVEN WHEN SHE DOESN’T FEEL LIKE ONE. THANK YOU!

𝐈.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ primarily but not exclusively based on comics outside of the new 52 and rebirth continuities; ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i deeply highlight post crisis, as well as a little bit of infinite frontier — namely, mariko tamaki’s 2016 detective comics run.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i also vibe with the animated show, justice league: unlimited.

𝐈𝐈.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎my helena has ‎nothing to do with:

helena wayne: ‎ ‎ they’re distinct, different characters and both my favourite darlings. please be informed that crossbow at the crossroads is actually a waynetress comic.

the birds of prey 2020 film. loved it, but that’s not my helena. i only steal the crossbow killer joke from it.

the new 52‎ ‎ & ‎ ‎ rebirth: ‎ ‎ i do not acknowledge the grayson / spyral / matron arc at all, not in my portrayal, not ever. helena would never be a spy, she’s a vigilante at heart. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ also, helena’s mom is not secretly alive; the point is that helena is the only & last living survivor of the entire bertinelli lineage.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i do however respect that helena bertinelli was redepicted as a black woman during this time and it is true in my portrayal, while i acknowledge that the majority of her comics depict her as not.

arrow the show:‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ stabbing me with a rusty forker is more preferable than ever reminding me of that show’s existence, thank you.

𝐈𝐈𝐈.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎‎regarding teams and affiliations:

helena bertinelli is ‎NOT a part of the batfamily and never has been, do not address her as such. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ she is friendly with many of the members — usually tim, stephanie, cass, damian, jason, duke,‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ but on and off with barbara, dick, and kate‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ — but clashes with bruce / batman. depending on our roleplay, i’m open to them being frenemies, reluctant friends, bitter co-workers, or straight up personal enemies.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ also happy to change dynamics with her and the other bats for our roleplay and plots.

to hell with spyral.

i don’t like the outsiders affiliation for her, personal preference.

although huntress has been notably a part of the birds of prey and the justice league, she is predominantly a solo act in my portrayal and not tethered down to any one particular team.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i do have her collaborate with other capes often even in places outside of gotham city and i generously reference the birds in my portrayal,‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i just don’t feel confident tying down my helena to a particular team or affiliation and i’d rather choose flexibility.

𝐈𝐕.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎regarding various arcs & comic book events:

‎DURING NO MAN’S LAND,‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ helena was the bat to unambiguously stand in for bruce wayne’s batman when he left the city.‎ ‎ ‎SHE WAS NEVER BATGIRL and she did not try to replace barbara gordon.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ during this time, she had been shot in the stomach several times by the joker.

DURING HUSH I,‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ helena had been attacked by the fear toxin. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ever since then, she keeps antidotes and formulae for that stuff, as well takes other precautions such as an additional gas mask she may put on underneath her purple mask.

FROM AFOREMENTIONED THE 2016 DETECTIVE COMICS RUN:‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ these events happened & are acknowledged in my portrayal sometimes:

she was attacked by the mind controlling parasites from hue vile ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ and‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ said parasite has been fully removed from her system.

however, it had a weird side effect in the aftermath: ‎ ‎ huntress gained crime sight, an ability that allows— makes her to perceive a sadistic act of violence being committed through the eyes of the assailant committing the crime in question within a particular radius.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎this is not a superpower, it is a living nightmare for her as she does not enjoy violence in any capacity.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i explore these visions sometimes for the metaphorical significance of it.

she checked herself into the arkham tower — a temporary substitute for the arkham asylum at that time — and sought therapy there briefly.

she failed to save her unconventional civilian friend, mary knox — but sought to avenge mary and adopt mary’s cat doug to look after him for her.

presently, helena still attends counselling at a much more reputable clinic in gotham, and she secretly pursues art therapy, cbt, and a mild prescription for managing her depressive episodes, paranoia, and tendency to bottling up stress.

𝐕.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎some notable headcanons of mine:

my hel is more of a smoker than a drinker, she's chiefly bilingual but is variably skilled in multiple languages, ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ she's named her motorbike seraphim and it is the love of her life, and she teaches a variety of subjects — english primarily, but can fill in for teachers of history, creative writing, foreign languages, and biology — at a public highschool in gotham city.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ i also headcanon that helena volunteers at a variety of places in her limited free time, ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ mainly dr. leslie's medical clinic, the local church, foster homes, orphanages, juvenile detention centers, and the arkham asylum,‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ where she generally works as another employee or privately teaches younger people.
