Real Name: Tammy
Superhero Identity: Ms. Helly Ah
Powers: Ms. Helly Ah is impervious to any standard or elemental attack except ice, can conjure fire, plays enchanting songs which put enemies to sleep, and can reverse time temporarily for up to an hour.
Weaknesses: As stated above, Ms. Helly Ah is vulnerable to ice as well as extreme cold, and if her magic ocarina or her magic bag of confetti, or both, were taken from her, or lost, she would be rendered mostly powerless. Like her friend Leonard, she too sometimes couldn't tell reality from make-believe.
Super Suit: Ms. Helly Ah basically dresses up like a female Viking warrior. Her costume is gray and silver, like metal armor often is, and she wears a helmet with Viking horns. She carries an enchanted ocarina which can make enemies fall asleep, and a bag of magic confetti from which sprout most of her spells, including time reversal.
Back Story: Tammy is one of the few true friends Leonard has. They met when some irritated bullies stuffed them both in the same school locker. They formed a friendship there while they waited for somebody to let them out. Tammy shared Leonard's fascination with LARP and fantasy, and often played games with him when no one else would.
Then, during a vacation in Scotland, Tammy attended an Up Helly Ah Viking festival. The Vikings there liked her imagination, and suddenly, one came out of the crowd and asked to have a quiet moment with her. He said that those who believe in the fantastic can perform magic miracles the more pragmatic and practical can never dream of, nor are interested in. He entrusted her with his magic ocarina and a limitless supply of magical confetti with which she could cast spells to save people in danger and bring their oppressors to justice. Tammy, enthused, accepted the offer, becoming a real world Viking magician, and she chose the Up Helly Ah title as her heroic namesake.
Heroic Example: Before returning to Canada and telling Leonard about what happened to her, Tammy (Ms. Helly Ah) encountered a small British girl lost without her mother. Ms. Helly Ah comforted her and helped her by finding a constable who paid good attention to the general area and thought he had seen the girl's mother earlier. The girl thanked Ms. Helly Ah for her assistance and even complimented her "cute" Viking costume.
Catchphrase: "UP HELLY AH!"
