Helena Du Maurier
Helena Maurier is a retired psychiatrist. Her decision to retire came as a result after a violent incident with a patient concluding in his death. After this incident, she retired from her practice with no penitence. She does see colleagues however, if and when the situation calls for it. Admittedly, she retired quite young, leaving her with more time than she knows what to do with. This unique state of suspension launched Helena into her next projects. Nowadays she dedicates her time and focus on research in between her sessions along with publishing and the occasional conference.
It's human nature to continuously accommodate to ones surroundings, it's only natural that after the incident Helena would become weary of the company she kept and those that she interacted with. Since, she shows different versions of herself to different people. This is often thought to be devious nature yet they fail to realize that it's merely adaptation, a basic human instinct. Human, a word Helena feels no connection to anymore. She experienced physical changes deemed unnatural to the human body. Some were small, almost insignificant, like changes in eye color. Others much more telling like enhanced senses, incredible physical strength and an uncontrollable thirst.
The transformation began after her attack; however nothing could've prepared her for who, or what, she was becoming. She used her new bound freedom to conduct extensive research, but every article and book only led to folklore. She deemed it nonsense until her attackers biopsy returned. Personal information post mortem is confidential. Luckily for her, she was friends with the pathologist. After dinner, a few drinks, and some persuasion she got her answer. Her former patient was far from human. The pathologist found physiological abnormalities not characterized with mortals and the DNA tests confirmed it.
Over the years, Helena's subconscious turned to consciousness. The blackouts were her brain's coping mechanism for the transformations she experienced, both physiologically and psychologically. She trained herself to resist her instincts. There's a time and place for everything, after all. Helena is a woman of principle and only allows herself to feast on the damned and the broken. There are ethical principles deep within her subconscious that she lives and kills by.

Character is based off of a character in the Hannibal series with an added twist. This character is not played in the Hannibal canon universe by default, though I wouldn't be opposed to the idea.
