Is Helba not a player but an AI?

She is talked about as the queen of the dark in the epitah of twilight.. Bear also commented that she was "no ordinary character." I can conclude one of the following:

1.) Helba, as a player, was prophesized by Emma to raise her army in the battle with Morganna.

2.) Helba was merely another AI like Morganna, Skeith, Aura, Maha, etc.

Sorry for making it unclear, but it seems that we never find out what Helba's real-life player is in the series, according to people (though I haven't played the games.) Yes, Helba's a hacker; it's possible that she's an AI playing the role of a hacker. In the Epitah and in Liminality ep 3, Helba is refered to as the "Dark Queen" and having greater power and status than simply a plain "hacker". So what are your thoughts on the latter?

Actually...in the Liminality ovas,her name is mentioned in there,I'm not sure whether its OVA 3 or 4,but I do remember Helba,being spoken off by one of the characters.What is that guy's name again? Gah I cant remember..that guy in Liminality 4.He knows Helba in a way.. ..atleast thats what I can recall -needs to rewatch Liminality 4. Oh well,I live by my statement that Helba IS a hacker,and not some A.I.Besides..if she Were a real A.I. wouldnt she be having the same probelms like Mia has everytime the World is hurt or falling a part?[Like the error in her Input System] Hmm? Think about it...

Whoever Helba's player is in real life, she chose the name "Helba" specifically in reference to the Epitaph. She basically said: "Hmm... Helba, Queen of the Dark, that'd be a cool name! HaXor time!"

Haven't you ever played any online games? Not even that: taken a look around this message board at usernames? People use names from famous anime, video games, people, etc for their identity.

Gee, Wild Arms, Wild Arms XD

Helba may be an AI, until Liminality 3 ^^

I like Wild Arms 2,very fun game..

..but yeah,Helba knew already where she got her name from,Lios,the Adminstrator didnt even know about the Epitaph of Twilight,and what do you know,he is following the role of it too.

Wild Arms 2 is fun, Wild Arms got better storyline ^^

Didn't lios know about the epitaph? 0.o Well, he didn't say anything about it, but... It doesn't mean he didn't know anything, right?

YashaOokami · Post by **YashaOokami** » Sun Jul 06, 2003 4:31 pm

Well I could be wrong on that though,I just remember in Mutation,Helba mentions it to him,and he didnt know about it.About Apeiron and Lios.

Brad_Evans · Post by **Brad_Evans** » Sun Jul 06, 2003 4:47 pm

I thought Helba mentioned it to Kite, and lios is silent about it. But i could be wrong too

But if Kite needs to search for the epitaph, Lios, logically, doesn know about it

I think I'll need my Mutation once again ^^;

Helba is a human player who happens to be an expert on the Epitaph of Twilight...so she named herself after the Queen of the Dark.

According to Encycllopedia .hack, Helba is a security analist in real life.
