Nickname: She is known to most as Belle, a shortening of her first name originally used by her father when she was very young that just seemed to stick. However, her brother calls her Bella. He is the only one she will allow to call her this. She is never called by her middle name; in fact, few people even know what it is. She prefers to keep it a secret, disliking the idea that anyone would ever know everything about her.
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Role: Candice Accola
Personality: Despite appearing grown-up and self-aware, Belle’s beliefs and views of the world are very childlike. To her, everything is very black and white. She finds it hard to see the grey area in between. She possesses the ability to display a childlike innocence and awe, this combined with her blue eyes and blonde hair makes her seem cute and endearing. However, this is not the case. In reality, Belle is smart, she just realised at a young age that it was the easiest way to get what she wants. She can be very persuasive, almost always getting her way if she wants it enough… She’s also a perfectionist. She is obsessed with how she looks; always having to have her hair, makeup, nails, outfits and jewellery perfect. Belle is attention-seeking and needy, constantly looking for reassurance and comfort from people around her. She can be very bitter if she feels she’s being ignored or abandoned. She hates to be alone and will rarely go anywhere without someone else. She’s got a short temper and throws a tantrum when she feels she’s not being listened to. But, she’s easily placated, especially by her brother. She sometimes comes across as shallow, but she’s actually very loyal. Once she has decided someone is a good person, she will stick by them forever. She is also impulsive, sometimes making bad decisions on the spur of the moment. She loves her brother more than anyone in the world and takes it as a personal offense to her if anyone does anything to him.
Extra Power: Persuasion. Some think it's just a natural talent, but others view a power or gift. It's most powerful on humans, meaning she never has to go without company as she could have any at her beck and call. She has the power to use them like slaves, but prefers their company and companionship. The power also works on other supernaturals but requires much more effort and even then, the strongest, eldest ones can still resist. No one is entirely sure how it works but Belle has been told that if she cultures her power, eventually she may even be able to wield power over those she can't at present.

Theme Song:
Take a look at my body
Look at my hands
There's so much here
That I don't understand
Contempt loves the silence
It thrives in the dark
With fine winding tendrils
That strangle the heart
They say that promises
Sweeten the blow
But I don't need them
No, I don't need them
Oh, I need
The darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
Oh, I need this
I need
A lullaby
A kiss goodnight
Angel sweet love of my life
Oh, I need this
Do you remember the way
That you touched me before
All the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored?
Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
No, I don't need them
Well, is it dark enough?
Can you see me?
Do you want me?
Can you reach me?
Or I'm leaving
You better shut your mouth
Hold your breath
Kiss me now you'll catch your death
Oh, I mean it
Oh, I need this.

Other: She speaks very quickly. As a vampire, her voice is velvety and smooth but hers is naturally very fast and she has to make an effort to speak slowly.
