Helena will be gaining a new active, a new passive and I'll be upgrading the beauty manipulation power.
Beauty Manipulation: Helena is capable of manipulating the beauty of herself, objects, and others via sight. Helena simply needs to have a clear visual of her target and use her powers on them. She is capable of manipulating to either end of the spectrum, making someone supernaturally beautiful, or ugly. The permanence of this ability is dependent on the amount of time Helena spends on an individual. Using a short time on someone, 10 seconds or so, will only make the effect last a two minutes, and the target is brought to a full state of perfection or imperfection. Other people witnessing this may be distracted, either because they're so attractive or incredibly hideous.
For inanimate objects, they will have similar effects on people seeing them. A rock will look like something worth adding to a collection. Or someone might be more inclined to drink a glass of water because it looks refreshing. On the opposite end, people will shy away from objects if they are made ugly. The effects stil only lasts for two minutes.
In order to get more permanent effects, Helena must look at a person or an object for an extended period of time and this might take several hours. This process is something like sculpting the person or object. This process can take longer if extra features the target has are added. This leaves Helena tired when it's over and she cannot use her ability for an hour or so afterwards.
When utilizing this ability on herself, it more or less works like shapeshifting. When Helena is in a state of physical perfection, people will find her much more approachable. Making herself plain, makes her difficult to notice immediately. Finally, making herself repulsive will make other people afraid of her, and more difficult to approach.
Illusion From Inside: Helena is able to cast illusions, that reflect her inner state at the moment of the casting. If she is feeling neutral the illusions are neutral in nature as well. If Helena is highly emotional her illusions become more lifelike. When Helena is experiencing negative emotions she can only cast negative illusions and other way around with happiness.
The illusions have a range, and anyone within that range experiences the illusion. When in a neutral emotional state Helena's illusions only reach about 5 meters around her. But when highly emotional the illusions can even reach 10 to 15 meters, changing depending on how her mood swings when casting the illusion. The duration of Helena's illusions and their toll on her also depend on her mood. While feeling neutral Helena can cast multiple illusions, up to 5 an hour if they don't last more than few minutes, and after that they sap her energy to a point she feels sleepy. If Helena casts an illusion in a highly emotional state, be it negative or positive, it will sap her energy greatly and after keeping an illusion up for 5 minutes Helena will faint immediately.
Helena can decide what the illusion looks like, but it's nature and details change based on her inner state. For example, while happy if Helena casts an illusion of a puppy the puppy will act accordingly, lavishing whoever sees the illusion with affection, and if Helena casts the same illusion when angered the puppy will instead look scary and attack whoever sees the illusion.
Image Of Beauty: Helena has an aura, that emerges when she is expressing her inner self. When Helena is being generous and kind towards others or in some other way expressing her inner beauty. Anyone who then looks at her will find Helena beautiful, no matter the person's standard for beauty. This aura works other way too, and when Helena is being selfish, mean, jealous or otherwise expressing her inner ugliness anyone who looks at her will find her repulsive.
