Helper T Cell (Friend)

Helper T Cell (ヘルパーＴ細胞 Herupā Tī Saibō?) is a minor character in Cells at Work! Friend.He is in charge of commanding and deploying the Killer T cells during viral infections.

Appearance
Helper T Cell has an average, fairly slender build and medium blonde-brown hair. He wears a monocle and the standard Helper T uniform, although he also wears a dark jacket loosely draped over his shoulders. Interestingly, he always wears a "cat smile" expression.

Personality
Helper T cell appears to be rather relaxed and somewhat helpless at skills outside of his immediate job scope, such as in being tidy. He is prone to impulse purchases, often winding up with a messy hoard in the various Lymph Node offices that he ultimately has to seek help to tidy. In times of prolonged peace, there is little active duty for him to execute, causing him to overly lax and snack to kill time, being completely unaware of any weight gain until directly addressed by other cells.

History
He attended Thymus School alongside Regulatory T and Killer T when they were all immature thymocytes. He appeared to be a model student of sorts, being both decisively determined and respectably strong despite his rather scrawny build. He does not seem to recognize Killer T as the black-haired kid from then, as he has since dyed his hair blonde.

Abilities

 * He is a white blood cell that provides help to defend the body without having to step foot into a battlefield.
 * Overall Abilities: Although he was never shown to fight pathogenic cells physically, he knows the basics of threat termination as he had been through T Cell training.

Trivia

 * He has always intended to become a Helper T cell, even going so far as to be confident that he would qualify when writing a letter to his future self.
 * He was primarily friends with Regulatory T, and seemed to not be as close with Killer T.
 * He briefly wonders how "that black haired kid" was doing, implying that he still remembers and holds some concern for him. Ironically, he mentions this in front of Killer T, who was the black-haired kid in question.
