Hello, friends! Tessa here and the following info y'all probably already know because I already said it, but just in case you don't, here you go :) also feel free to leave suggestions.
Also the art belongs to jennyluffsmuffins101 and ThE_black-Midnight WHY YOU HAVE TALENT?!
Representing: Sparta, Greece
Name: Helena Anax (The name Helena comes from a Greek myth (Ulysses), the Trojan war (Menelaus of Sparta's wife) and translates to shining light. Anax is the Greek word for either a king, lord, or military leader)
Birthday: 900 BC (The internet never specified what the exact data was, but it did mention the year)
Actual Age: over 1000 years old (Sparta lasted roughly 1000 years before being conquered)
Human Age (age they look): 26
Hair: Wavy, black, uneven, falls right above chest, usually worn in a braid (In Sparta, the god/goddess that was mostly praised consisted of Ares and Artemis. Helena gets her hair waves and braids from Artemis and gets it's dark color and choppy style from Ares)
Eyes: Dull grey (Resembles Artemis's eyes)
Height: 5'3 (The average height of a Greek woman is 5'5, but since Sparta is only a (no longer existing) city-state I made her slightly shorter)
Body Type: Athletic/muscular (due to training and because Spartans killed off the 'weak ones' at birth), busty (Sparta was apart of the region of Laconia, and the northern parts of Laconia are rather hilly)
Family Members: Other City States of Greece. (Athens, Delos, Argos, Chalcis, ect)
Strengths: Good at archery/hunting (Artemis is the goddess of the hunt) fast/strong (due to spartan training) manipulative (managed to turn many city-states against Athens)
Weaknesses: Always looking for a fight (Sparta attacked first in the First Messenian War, the Peloponnesian War, ect) Arrogance (Due to variety of victories) Controlling/Power hungry (Sparta's government was an oligarchy)
Personality: Sparta is a loud outgoing girl, with a lot of opinions. Some apprichiate her honesty, while others find her loud mouthed and annoying. Helena is rather athletic, however this contributes to arrogance. The female's cockiness can often lead to her making reckless decisions without thinking before acting. Helena can be rather rebellious and will do anything to pick a fight or go against any sort of cause she disagrees with.
Backstory: Helena grew up as a rather immature and overly confident girl, which she claims is 'justified' due to her constant victories. Sparta became a rather daunting and athletic city-state due to her intense training and lack of morals. The Greek female's family is constantly turning on each other. One moment they'll be fighting with each other and the next they'll be plotting against each other. Eventually after winning a variety of wars, Sparta was taken down by her own brother, Thebes. Despite dissolving, the female managed to stay alive due to people still referring to being of 'Spartan Descent' (sort of like Prussia)
Friends: The City-States that were allied with Sparta in the Peloponnesian War (Corinth, Chalcis, Megara, ect) France (signed a treaty with Greece, likes his personality), Spain (Both members of European Union, NATO, Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, OECD, Union for the Mediterranean, and United Nations) Prussia (The Prussian's admired the spartan's lifestyle, and was often referred to as 'North Sparta')
Enemies: Thebes (Greek city-state that lead to Sparta dissolving) Athens (The Peloponnesian War, believing that Athens broke a thirty year golden age, ect) Rome (conquered Greece), Turkey (rivalry with Greece)
Neutral: Everyone else
Other: Helena has scars all over her body due to all the training and wars she's been through.
A note from Sparta: "Ahem, I have one important statement for all to hear.....THIS. IS. SPARTA!!!!.........That is all..."
