Helen A. Park was born on July 20, 1952, and was a prodigy that entered Oxford University when she was only sixteen years old to pursue an international relations doctorate. When her brother was killed in an IRA bombing attack in London, Park began to study the motivations of para-military organizations and joined MI6. Park participated in international assignments, and met Russell Adler during an assignment where she was tasked to protect two British scientists who were collaborating on a CIA project. The two would work together on numerous black operations, but Park always but her loyalty to England first, and also states that Adler wasn't the "most pleasant person" she worked with.
During her career, Park worked with a fellow MI6 agent named "Madam Shell" for three years, and Park suspected that she became a rogue double agent. Once "Madam Shell" suspected that Park knew, she attempted to kill her, and left a scar across her neck as a parting gift. After the incident, Park kept a scarf around her to neck to hide the scar and blamed herself for being naïve at the time.

In 1981, Park is recruited into joining Russell Adler's team to stop "Perseus", being recruited alongside Lawrence Sims, Eleazar "Lazar" Azoulay, Alex Mason, and Frank Woods. She also helps Adler program one of "Perseus's" agents by using the MK ultra program, and implanted memories of them working with Adler and Sims during the Vietnam War. The associate is given the code name "Bell" by Adler, and is brought on the team to help them stop "Perseus" and possibly learn of his location. At the CIA safehouse in West Berlin, Germany, the team realize they need leads on "Perseus" after the CIA and MI6 haven't got any. Adler has "Bell" recall the implanted memories of Operation Fracture Jaw, where they found intel on Perseus and Soviet activity in Vietnam, and protected a nuclear device.
Hunting Volkov[]
With "Bell" decoding the intel, they get stuck on the name "Anton Volkov", who is an associate of "Perseus" and Russian mafia arms dealer who moved to East Berlin once the Berlin Wall was placed. Knowing that Volkov will be hard to get to, the team decide to follow his chief courier Franz Kraus, and have BND spy Greta Keller assist them on the mission.
Park also informs Adler that she wants Volkov to be apprehended rather than eliminated, as MI6 had been tracking the arms dealer for several years. Park and Lazar separate from Adler and "Bell", and stay stationed at a storefront near Kraus' apartment. During the operation, Keller informs "Bell" that her informant Lukas Richter was captured by the Stasi, who has also informed Kraus that he was possibly followed by spies.
After learning of this information, Park and Lazar regroup and task "Bell" with placing a tracker in Kraus' briefcase, but they are captured after doing so. Park and the team rescue "Bell" and Greta (if alive), and "Bell" will corner Volkov when he attempts to escape. If "Bell" apprehends Volkov, Park will thank them on the behalf of MI6, but if "Bell" kills Volkov, she will express disappointment in not capturing the arms dealer.

After Adler and the team confront Hudson, Mason and Woods are sent to Mount Yamantau to collect the mainframe of the sleeper agents "Perseus" is after. Though the mission was successful, Hudson's superior, Emerson Black reveals that "Perseus" wiped the mainframe, and that only way to get the names is from the KGB headquarters in Moscow. Hudson authorizes the mission for Adler, and Parks plays a part on the operation coordinating intel and exfil for Adler and "Bell". With the assistance of double agent Dimitri Belikov, Adler and "Bell" succeed in getting the list of sleeper agents from the KGB's mainframe, and escape with Lazar.
Havana[]

Park works with Lazar and "Bell" on trying to stop Hastings, but watch on camera "Perseus" shoot Hastings and his staff to tie up loose ends. Park and "Bell" manage to get to Hastings before he dies, and he informs them that "Perseus" had him arm all of the American nukes across Europe, which he will detonate and incriminate the United States. While trying to escape from the compound, Park, Lazar, and "Bell" are critically injured by an RPG explosion, and the player has to either save Park, Lazar, or neither.
Bell's Interrogation[]
If the player saves Park, she will thank them at the CIA safehouse, and asks them to help Adler and Sims learn the location of "Perseus". Adler then forces "Bell" to recall the implanted memories by using an intracerebral injection, and Park warns him that injecting into the brain could cause seizures. "Bell" manages to recall their past memory with "Perseus" revealing his plans and of his location, and Park informs "Bell" of her and Adler programming them. The player has the option to either tell the truth of "Perseus's" location, or lie and take them to the wrong location.
