Helen of Troy

Helen, also known as Helen of Troy, was the wife of the Greek king Menelaus.

Biography

Helen was captured by the Trojan prince Paris. Menelaus challenged him to a duel, but Paris refused. The Greek army, under Menelaus' brother Agamemnon, began a war with Troy over Helen.

Ten years later, Menelaus was not interested in getting Helen back. He just wanted the war to end. However, the Greeks, with the help of the First Doctor, eventually defeated Troy and sacked it, retrieving Helen. (TV: The Myth Makers)

According to Vicki Pallister, Menelaus was glad to have Helen back. (PROSE: Apocrypha Bipedium)

Helen was among the notable women of Earth's history whom were invited by Missy to join MADAM. (PROSE: Girl Power!)

Legacy

In 1873, Heinrich Schliemann discovered the Jewels of Helen while excavating Troy. (PROSE: Past Reckoning)

City of the Saved

In the City of the Saved, Helen married World War II-era pilot Terrence Moody. In the early stages of the City of the Saved Civil War, she once again became caught up in the fight between the Greeks and Trojans. (PROSE: Apocalypse Day)
