Hella

Hella was an especially deadly bounty hunter recruited by Roman General Aulus Plautius to hunt down Cait, a threat to the Roman Empire. She bought the cross bow from Aziz Ram for 100 gold pieces, which she would eventually use to kill them. She followed fellow bounty hunters Ashur Ram and Aziz Ram to Locerly Cross, where she listened in on their interrogation of Roman deserters Brutus and Philo, before killing them as well as the Albino Tracker.

Hella then followed the bird of the other bounty hunter Aulus had employed, Jhehutamisu, and pinned him to a tree using her crossbow. Threatening him with his own poisons, Hella interrogated Jhehutamisu about the prophecy of Veran. She killed Jhehutamisu and stole his belongings, heading for Cait.

She eventually tracks down Cait and Divis, engaging in a brutal fight with Divis where she stabbed him several times, drowned him, and left him for dead, proving herself resistant to Divis' attempts to hex her. She then saves a suicidal Cait from hanging herself and decides to bury her in the ground with a tube through which she could breathe, and instead of handing her over to the Romans as she was hired to do, she instead sold her to the Druids.

Over the next two years, Hella stayed in Britannia and eventually found herself working for The Dead Man, Harka. She was employed to capture Phelan and bring him to Harka, which she did. She was also able to capture the Druid Willa, whom she buried in the ground in a similar fashion to which she did to Cait. She returned to the Romans, and instead of being killed she was able to convince Aulus to pay her twice her weight in silver for Willa, and then she told Aulus that The Dead Man says hello.

She later stalked Aulus and had a brief chat with him, mentioning one of her many babies scratched her eye. She then knocked him out and kidnapped him, to take him to Harka.

Three years after the Roman invasion, after Cait and her band set out to find the Roman deserter Lucius, Hella is payed by the band to take them to Lucius in the Blue Hills to the west, where the Romans take their deserters. However, she tells the band that the west is too dangerous for her, so her sister Drella will take them instead. Although Hella doesn't like Drella too much, she still warns her to keep an eye on Ania, because although she doesn't know why, she feels that something is off with Ania, who had been hexed by Hemple prior to their journey.

After leaving Drella with the band, Hella rides to a clearing to meet with Aulus again. She tells him she saw his wife, Hemple, but refuses to tell him where or when. She does tell him that Veran is searching for Lucius, knows who he sent to find him. Hella knows Blaine is eavesdropping on them, and throws a knife in his leg to stop him from escaping.
