Helmut
He is from East Germany and as we can remember the cold war had deep influence in this place. To make the character map of Helmut I had to imagine how his life was in the past, before he moved into New York city. I think he has a dark past where he had problems because of the situation in the place he lived, I think he didn´t not agree with the ideologies of his country. Also I think he was lonely without a family and he lived with friends, but they betrayed him, so he was left alone in the world so he decided to move and search for a place where he can forget everything and start over again.
The mask
- Taxi driver
- Foreigner
- Clown
- Dumb
- Not doing properly his job
- Not following the rules
- Failure
He wants to drive the passenger until the end.
When Yo-yo wanted to drive he hesitated about letting him do it.
In his start over in New York he is afraid to fail and to return to his country
Strong traits

Strong traits
- Funny
- Patient
- Perseverant
- Brave
He is patient becuase he doesn´t know how to drive or speak english, also at the end he doesnpt know where to go and still he was calmed.
When Yo-yo didin´t want to ride the taxi anymore, Helmut was insistent to drive him (perseverant).
Although he didin´t knew where he was or how to speak english, he dares to go anywhere (brave).
- Impulsive (He acts without thinking what would happen)
- Innocent
- He doesn't know how to drive
- Have bad english skills
He is impulsive because he doesn´t think about what would be the consequences of his acts.
Dark side
Helmut doesn´t present a dark side easy to find so I think it would be:
Helmut doesn´t present a dark side easy to find so I think it would be:
- People that are scared of new things, also that doesn´t dare to venture
- People who betray
I think his dark side can be backed up with the admire traits, the opposite of the things he doesn´t like at all are the one that he admires.
Admired traits
- People that have a family and protect it
- Outgoing
- Gentile and Honest
Helmut smiles alot because of the relationship between Yo-yo and the sister in law
He is always is telling the sister in law that she is nice, and she is a very outgoing girl
(Gentile and honest) Yo-yo helped him with the taxi, he taught him how to drive and also he give him the correct taxi fare
