Helen Twombly

Helen Twombly, a character in The Freshman and The Sophomore series, is an administrator in Financial Aid at Hartfeld University. She first appeared in Book 1, Chapter 3.

Appearance
Ms. Twombly has red brown hair and blue eyes. She wears a light blue shirt with a strawberry brooch.

Personality
Ms. Twombly is eccentric yet always has good intentions. She often speaks her mind and recounts her romantic endeavours regardless of her audience such as during Game of Love where she begins to speak of her "conquests" only to be promptly stopped by Professor Vasquez.

Enrique Vasquez
Twombly appeared to show intense appreciation toward Professor Vasquez, which often wasn't reciprocated due to Twombly's eccentric nature. However, they were close work colleagues at Hartfeld, often working together in events held on campus. When Vasquez passes away, Twombly decides to follow her dreams of being a novelist in his honour, much to both the reader and Your Character's amusement.

Your Character
Ms. Twombly first meets Your Character when the latter needs help in finding ways to stay on campus after her family runs into financial difficulty. Twombly cautiously directs Your Character towards Professor Vasquez' work assistant placement, ultimately securing Your Character place at Hartfeld. To this end, it appears Twombly genuinely took to Your Character from the beginning. They have many friendly encounters in the future which shows that Ms. Twombly feels comfortable being her quirky self around Your Character, even opening up about her niche of being a novelist. Ms. Twombly continues supporting Your Character as she starts her Sophomore year at Hartfeld after successfully accomplishing Vasquez' task.
