Danika zu Heltzer is the daughter of Count zu Heltzer, the head of House zu Heltzer. Danika zu Heltzer was in Kaineng City on a diplomatic mission and was apalled at the widespread problems that the plague has caused.
"I am no longer content to remain in the protective confines of my society. My people think to keep evil at bay by reading signs and portents, performing rituals, and blindly following the words of the Redemptors...but we are no safer from evil than our neighbors, and we are doing nothing to help. I simply can't sit still any longer."
"I don't understand. This wasn't supposed to happen! Not while someone from House zu Heltzer was here. It must be[sic] omen...
The cathedral has sealed itself and its guardians have been awakened. They've been enchanted to attack intruders, and they won't rest until we're as dead as the bodies entombed here. I don't know how to turn them off... Our only hope is to make our way to the main entrance so that I can perform the necessary spell and open the gate.
Dwayna protect us; Balthazar give us strength. We're going to need it."
"I am indebted to you for everything you have done for me, (character name). I only hope that we can use the lessons learned in all of this to forge a lasting peace with the Luxons."
Danika is a potent healer, equipped with some spike heals, hex removal and a hard rez. She is on her own not enough to keep a party standing, but together with Redemptor Karl, they can keep everything alive really well.
"If I cannot protect my people, who will? I will not sit in these great towers of stone and beauty while the world crumbles around itself. I am with you, until the end of all things. Can I help you with anything?"
