You can learn a lot of things from the flowers...
Helga is a benign soul who values loyalty and hard work. She is warm, compassionate, and caring. In short, she possesses a great many traits that were not common in the tenth century. It didn't matter who you were or where you came from, everyone was treated with the equal amount of respect and acceptance. She came to be known as Good Hufflepuff for all of the good deeds that she performed.
However, all of that kindness came at a price. She is a little bit naive and sometimes people underestimate her because of it. Stupid, she is not. Helga wants to see the good in people and believes that everyone had the capacity to be good. Sometimes it just wasn't the case and it causes her to feel very sad, heartbroken even. There was another drawback. Some of the other Founders felt the need to look after her causing her anger when she feels this is happening. She can go on the defensive quite easily.
Despite all of that kindness, Helga was fiercely loyal to her friends and family. She is rather like a mother bear in that aspect. No one got between her and her friends or her and her students. It just is not allowed to happen (by allowed Helga will do her best to put an end to it).
No one should mistake Helga's kindness as weakness. She is not. She can defend herself.
Helga is a natural when it comes to Herbology and Healing, in fact those are her strongest strengths. Coming in at a close second would be Charms. She can do a limited bits of wandless magic but it doesn't always work. She is an Animagus, her form is a badger with a white stripe running from the tip of her nose to the end of her tail. With her Grimmoire, that has been handed down for generations, Helga knows a little bit about a lot of things. A little bit of knowledge can be dangerous.
She tends to be naive and a bit too trusting.
