Isabela "Bella" Lydia Richards (née Samson) is an is an English schoolteacher from Blackpool, who married David Richards and had a son named Roger Alfred Richards. 
==History==
===Early Life===
She was raised mostly by her aunt, Elaine Cartwright, who indulged her in all her wild dreams, and taught her to be strong and independent. 
===Involvement===
==Physical Appearance==
Clara was a short, young Caucasian woman with big, brown eyes and long brunette hair that she usually kept down, but occasionally tied up in a ponytail or bun. During her final adventures with the Doctor, she trimmed her hair to a medium length which she would also ponytail on occasion. She also adopted a 1920s-style bob hairstyle briefly at one point, though this may have been a wig. (TV: Mummy on the Orient Express) Clara's appearance attracted the attention of Latimer, Porridge and the Sheriff of Nottingham. (TV: The Snowmen, Nightmare in Silver, Robot of Sherwood) Rosemary Kizlet and Emma Grayling also referred to her as pretty, (TV: The Bells of Saint John, Hide) and the Eleventh Doctor himself noted she was beautiful and showed that he was attracted to her when he said, "A mystery wrapped in an enigma squeezed into a skirt that's just a little too ... tight" and smiled happily afterwards. (TV: Nightmare in Silver)
She appeared to usually wear very little makeup; the Twelfth Doctor was very confused when she had put some on for a date with Danny Pink, asking why she had coloured her face. (TV: Time Heist) She also was seen to wear heavier-than-usual makeup on occasion while teaching during her times when not travelling with the Doctor. (TV: The Caretaker, The Zygon Invasion) She wore a variety of jewellery including rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings. Dresses were her main item of clothing, along with tights, jackets and skirts. Early in her travels with the Doctor, she regularly carried around a red bag that sometimes held her keepsake book that used to belong to her mother. As time went on, however, she no longer carried the bag or the book with her. On one occasion, Clara wore a suit-and-tie for a date with Danny Pink. (TV: Time Heist)
Clara was five feet and one inch tall, (TV: Deep Breath) which was nearly a foot shorter than the Eleventh Doctor (TV: The Snowmen) and a "very similar" height to the Sontaran Strax, (TV: Deep Breath) according to her Victorian incarnation and the Twelfth Doctor, respectively. The Eleventh Doctor referred to her as being small, (PROSE: Shroud of Sorrow) while the Twelfth Doctor said that she was "sort of small and roundish" (TV: Into the Dalek) and realised her legs were much shorter than her predecessor, Amy Pond. (TV: Deep Breath) Wolf made a crack about Clara's height being about the same as one of Santa Claus' elves when he said it was hypocritical that someone of her height would say a "racist" remark towards elves, to which Clara reacted self-consciously. (TV: Last Christmas) According to Clara, she was average height. (PROSE: Shroud of Sorrow) Upon seeing an image of Amy Pond for the first time, Clara was heard remarking in a mixture of jealousy and admiration about the length of the previous companion's legs. (HOMEVID: Clara and the TARDIS) During a brief period when she was taken over by the spirit of Kali, Clara temporarily grew to super-Amazonian height and grew two additional arms while her skin turned blue and she grew fangs. After returning to her natural state, Clara remarked that being tall was the only part of the affair she liked. (COMIC: The Swords of Kali)
Clara was not oblivious to her appearance and on several occasions acknowledged that she knew she was physically attractive, at one point accusing Madame Vastra of being attracted to her "pretty face" (TV: Deep Breath) and joking with the Doctor, after correctly surmising the origin of the Morpheus machine's name, "Oh yeah, not just this [indicating her face]". (TV: Sleep No More) On one occasion where she had the rare opportunity to view an earlier version of herself from the rear, she expressed approval. (TV: Listen) Ashildr also told Clara shortly before her death that she was as beautiful as she was in photographs she had seen. (TV: Face the Raven) She once caught the attention of Leonardo da Vinci and was the original model for his famous painting, the Mona Lisa, which would go on to intersect with the Doctor's life on numerous occasions. The Twelfth Doctor indicated to Leonardo that the likeness wasn't very good, except for capturing Clara's perpetual smirk. (COMIC: The Swords of Kali)
After his regeneration, the Twelfth Doctor often insulted her appearance, talking about her face being so wide she needed three mirrors in her bedroom, (TV: Listen) suggesting she was "built like a man", (TV: Into the Dalek) and claiming to not notice how she'd made herself more attractive than usual for a date. (TV: Time Heist) Regardless of whether these statements were honest or meant in jest, eventually the Doctor stopped insulting Clara about her appearance and in fact paid her a public compliment by playing the opening guitar riff from Roy Orbison's "Oh, Pretty Woman" by way of signalling to her that he had seen her in a crowd of people. (TV: The Magician's Apprentice) He also acknowledged that her eyes were a feature he feared remembering if he ever lost Clara (TV: The Girl Who Died) and the last thing he wanted Clara to do before he passed out after wiping his memory of her was to smile. (TV: Hell Bent)
Like most companions, Clara's wardrobe varied, and after her first few adventures with the Doctor, was rarely seen wearing the same outfit twice except on occasions where one adventure led directly into the next. One notable exception was a leather jacket she began sporting in conjunction with her motorcycle riding. (TV: The Day of the Doctor) According to some accounts, however, she was also keen on a red sweater, blue skirts and dark tights outfit which she often wore during some of her more brief adventures with the Doctor (COMIC: Empire's Fall, etc.) She rarely wore revealing outfits, and opted for period-appropriate dress whenever possible. (TV: The Crimson Horror, Robot of Sherwood, COMIC: The Highgate Horror, etc.)
Unlike many of her generation, Clara did not have a tattoo during her "normal" lifetime, though she indicated to Rigsy that she was interested in someday getting a small and discreet one. This was just before taking on the Quantum Shade timer on the back of her neck, which resembled a tattoo. (TV: Face the Raven, Hell Bent) Aside from following the standard human custom of piercing her earlobes to wear jewellery, she also sported an additional "helix" piercing midway up the cartilage of her left ear in which she often wore a stud. The piercing became more visible after Clara cut her hair after the Dream crabs (Kantrofarri) incident. (TV: The Girl Who Died, etc.)
==Personality==
Bright, active, energetic, clever, and stubborn, she talked fast and was filled with curiosity. A very feisty, brave, and warm-hearted young lady with a sharp wit and a thirst for adventure. She was somewhat reserved and didn't reveal her true feelings easily. She was wary of David at first, believing him to be sketchy or dangerous. She was very good at looking after children. She thought her life decisions through carefully at first, being quite cautious at first and was unsure of what to make of David's unpredictable personality. She was flirtatious, but seemed to react to situations rather than initiate them, but later became more proactive. She seemed touched that David protected and guarded her, though she was unused to and unsure of all the dangers they faced. As time went on and she adapted to a life with him, she developed a reckless streak, and became more curious. She is bossy, a needy game player, and a control freak, but took great exception to that and denied it, but was quite egomaniacal.
Clara had close relationships with her mother and father, and kept the leaf that had started their relationship for many years after her mother's death. Clara had a great strength of character and was very brave and selfless, even more so than the Doctor at times. She was easily willing to give up things extremely important in order to save people she hardly knew. Although she was frightened of Akhaten, she showed great courage by standing up to it and helping the Doctor defeat it. She gave up both her leaf and her mother's ring in order to defeat the Old God, although she later got the ring back. (TV: The Rings of Akhaten) Clara's selfless and loyal nature led her to make a huge sacrifice for the Doctor by jumping into his time stream to save him from the wrath of the Great Intelligence, even after River Song told her that her real self would die, leaving only echoes. The Doctor shortly thereafter jumped in to save her. (TV: The Name of the Doctor) Her selflessness was reflected by her echoes, especially her Dalek-self who brought down the shields of the Asylum, allowing the Doctor to complete his mission of destroying it and escaping with Amy and Rory. (TV: Asylum of the Daleks)
Very caring and compassionate, is disgusted by child abuse. Had an instinct that everything would turn out alright.
Clara was willing to stand up to people to defend her rights and disliked being seen as anything less than a person. When the Doctor later revealed that she reminded him of a "friend" who had died (actually the Victorian-era version of Clara herself), Clara told him that she would be happy to travel with him, but not if she were viewed as a ghost of someone else. She said that she was a separate, unique individual, and wanted to be treated as such. (TV: The Rings of Akhaten) Clara again showed her dislike of being seen as a "ghost" by the Doctor when the two travelled throughout the Earth's history and the Doctor compared life in the TARDIS to being outside of time. She felt rather emotional about seeing the entire life cycle of Earth and wondered if her body was in the ground somewhere. (TV: Hide) Her willingness to defend her rights was also shown when she scolded the Twelfth Doctor for abandoning her and forcing her to make an extremely difficult decision about whether or not to let the creature that emerged from the Moon live, especially since he knew all along that the creature was harmless. She claimed that he wasn't right to throw her to the same bag with other people and that, since he breathed their air, it was his responsibility to help them out when they needed it. This shows that she was willing to be blunt towards a friend when she felt that they had crossed a line. (TV: Kill the Moon) She was similarly blunt in confronting him about his intentions to erase her memory. (TV: Hell Bent)
She initially disliked his motorcycle, calling it grumpy. Is quite observant, noticing when two people like each other, keen sense of observation, very resourceful, impressive, had a knack for playing politics. She would sometimes talk to herself when alone, a natural leader, adapts to situations very quickly and can keep soldiers in line. She was unprepared for the possibility of someone disobeying her. She is happy to try foreign food, but often does not like it, she frequently makes and drinks tea, and finds whisky disgusting, but drinks wine on occasion socially and by herself.
She was a good strategist and could use anything available to her advantage, using a cable to electrocute the Cybermen in a moat, although this idea failed due to the Cybermen's ability to upgrade their defences on the spot. Clara was very protective of Angie and Artie Maitland and at one point even referred to them as "my children", suggesting that she considered them to be her daughter and son, despite Angie constantly pointing out that she wasn't their mother. Clara was also humble and had no interest in being the queen of the universe, gently refusing Porridge's offer of marriage. (TV: Nightmare in Silver)
Despite their rather uneasy start, Clara and the Eleventh Doctor formed a strong bond very quickly. She also showed great trust in the Doctor, even after Emma Grayling warned her that he had "a sliver of ice in his heart". (TV: Hide) She viewed him as her best and most trusted friend, even going so far as to sacrifice her own life for his safety. (TV: The Name of the Doctor) Throughout their adventures, Clara and the Doctor apparently never discussed the Doctor's attraction to Clara, and she appeared to appreciate the signs of affection he occasionally showed her, (TV: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS, The Crimson Horror) although she once said in one of their earlier adventures that she didn't see the Doctor as a love interest. (TV: Hide) The idea of personal space was constantly forgotten between the two of them. After the events that transpired at his tomb at Trenzalore, Clara and the Eleventh Doctor apparently grew much closer and trusting to each other, with the latter showing an enormous amount of trust in Clara. Although Clara was aware that he had wiped out his own people and the Daleks to end the Time War, she had never been able to picture his eleventh incarnation doing it and persuaded him to reconsider the decision he made that day. (TV: The Day of the Doctor) She often poked fun at the Doctor with a flirtatious undertone, rather enjoying seeing him squirm. (PROSE: Shroud of Sorrow, TV: The Bells of Saint John) Clara later admitted she fancied the Doctor while under the influence of a Truth Field, and refused to accept his impending death. Her pleading to the Time Lords to help caused them to intervene and save the Doctor by granting him more regenerations. However, his regeneration saddened her deeply, as she had formed a strong bond with this particular incarnation of the Doctor and the idea of the Eleventh Doctor dying distressed her greatly. Before he changed, she reached out for him and begged him not to change. (TV: The Time of the Doctor) The Twelfth Doctor later indicated that the Eleventh Doctor thought of himself as Clara's boyfriend as the Twelfth Doctor clarified to Clara that "I'm not your boyfriend" and that it wasn't her mistake he was referring to when he said that. At the same time, Clara told him that she never thought the Doctor was. (TV: Deep Breath)
Clara viewed the Eleventh Doctor as "her" Doctor and shared a strong bond with him. However, this later transpired as a problem when his next incarnation proved to be vastly different than his predecessor. Clara appeared to be in slight denial of his regeneration and struggled for a while with losing "her" Doctor. She also appeared to have been ready to stop travelling with the Doctor after his regeneration and her first adventure together with the new Doctor, claiming that she "[wasn't] sure who the Doctor [was] any more". However, the Eleventh Doctor phoned Clara, reassured her about his next incarnation and said his goodbyes to her. This led to Clara finally accepting the new Doctor and agreeing to stay on with him. (TV: Deep Breath) However, she still took some time to get used to the new Doctor. (TV: Into the Dalek)
However, over time she grew very close to the new Doctor to the point where she found herself often choosing his company over that of Danny while trying to balance her relationships with both. For a time, she actually travelled with the Doctor without telling Danny, who was under the impression that she had broken up (in Danny's words) with the Time Lord. (TV: Mummy on the Orient Express, Flatline, In the Forest of the Night) Clara's relationship with the Doctor deepened after Danny's death; she willingly rejoined him in his travels (TV: Last Christmas), on one occasion challenged the Doctor to not give up during a situation by saying "if you love me in any way, you'll come back" (TV: Before the Flood); and while early on Clara would occasionally slap or threaten to slap the Twelfth Doctor (TV: Into the Dalek, Listen, Kill the Moon), by the time of her final adventures she had taken to stroking his face affectionately instead (TV: The Girl Who Died, Face the Raven) and the Doctor remembered this when he recreated Clara in his mind while trapped for billions of years in his confession dial. (TV: Heaven Sent) The Twelfth Doctor, for his part, often expressed that he felt he had a "duty of care" towards the young woman, which initially annoyed her (TV: Under the Lake, The Girl Who Died) though it became a statement of devotion when the Doctor gave this as his reason for spending billions of years on a plan to rescue her from death. Upon learning of this, Clara was thunderstruck and she told him something in private that she felt only people like she and him should say to each other; the nature of this conversation, following the Doctor's memory wipe, remained known only to Clara. (TV: Hell Bent)
She likes pretty young men and the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius. She once described David as her "hobby". She loved Sunday School and hates snakes. She enjoys reading books. She had a teen interest to travel, and enjoyed baking and foreign or unconventional cinema to broaden her horizons.
Despite her compassion and strong morals, her travels with the Doctor changed her, numbing her in a way to the requirements and challenges of a normal human life, such as when she declared Danny's death to be boring, (TV: Dark Water) or when she eagerly jumped on the TARDIS to witness the solar storm, forgetting her duties to her students. (TV: In the Forest of the Night) Some of the Doctor's inhuman traits rubbed off on her, especially in moments where she took on the role of the Doctor. She told Rigsy to forget George when he was taken by the Boneless. (TV: Flatline) When Clara used Rudy Zoom's mind and its absence of self-loathing as a weapon against the Umbra, she didn't know for certain if the plan would have worked but knew it was at least worth a try. The Twelfth Doctor, claiming that Clara wasn't aware of this, pointed out that she was "definitely" starting to think like him. (COMIC: The Eye of Torment) Her grief over Danny's death drove her to the limits of her loyalty and enabled her to betray the Doctor's trust for her own selfish reasons. In the end, she resembled the Doctor at his darkest, using her clever mind in a ruthless manner. Furthermore, she immediately regretted her decision afterwards, believing that she had betrayed the Doctor which he acknowledged although he assured her that it didn't make a difference. After this incident, she made a vow to never compromise her kindness and honesty to others ever again. (TV: Dark Water)
Despite her kind nature, she knew that occasionally it was necessary to not be kind. On several occasions she indicated a willingness to engage in deadly force when necessary. She did not want to know what her future looked like or have knowledge of her fate, but later became less afraid of death. Occasionally, she would speak without thinking through the consequences, uttering an offensive joke or remark when in the heat of a good moment. She was an accomplished liar, which she occasionally used to her advantage. She had strong control over her will, and had strong willpower. She could make her dark eyes appear even larger when emotional. Tends to use the word "Seriously?" as an inquisitive when David did something puzzling or unexpected. She has a habit of smirking as if she knew something no one else did.
very good at looking after children. 
She is skilled at using some guns and is a good strategist, she can use anything around her to her advantage. She was a quick learner when it came to piloting, and can ride a moped, later obtaining a motorbike.
At some point, Clara gained the ability to operate the TARDIS doors by snapping her fingers, an ability previously demonstrated only by the Doctor. (TV: The Day of the Doctor, The Caretaker) She also learned how to pilot the TARDIS using its telepathic interface, becoming the first known companion to do so, though without the Doctor guiding her she wasn't accurate in her destinations - though she nonetheless was able to pilot the TARDIS to Gallifrey and a point early in the Doctor's lifetime. (TV: Listen) She later used the circuits again to pilot the TARDIS to a specific location in Paris in 1923, and managed pinpoint accuracy, though it would seem the TARDIS assisted her. (COMIC: Four Doctors) The Doctor began teaching Clara how to operate basic TARDIS functions early in their relationship (TV: Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS) and got to the point where the Doctor appeared comfortable enough to allow Clara to not only help operate the TARDIS (TV: The Woman Who Lived, etc.) but fiddle with settings on the control console on her own. (TV: The Zygon Inversion) After the Doctor passed out after erasing all memory of her, Clara displayed the ability to fly the stolen TARDIS back to her own time period and deposit the Doctor in Nevada without guidance from the Doctor or using the telepathic circuits, and later used her TARDIS to retrieve the Doctor's TARDIS and transport it to Nevada. While Ashildr consulted a manual for information on the TARDIS's functions such as its chameleon circuit, Clara was completely comfortable flying the unfamiliar TARDIS, planning to have adventures of her own with Ashildr before going to face her death. (TV: Hell Bent)
She can pick a lock, she is a skilled swimmer, and has self-defense skills such as fencing and taekwondo.

She was a good mother, although a bit ADHD to get some things right, she was good at calming his father's temper when she was around, and things were good while she was around. When his father died from lung cancer, she suddenly hated the calm and silence as she had the need to be active and it was all suddenly too mundane and boring and confining, as she only ever really liked David, not the countryside. She moved them to her home city soon after his death, and he was overwhelmed with her family and the chaos and rude people and her not being subtle or delicate enough to figure out what he was trying to express and he acted out and she was too impatient with him and their relationship fell apart, as she was not how she was when she was married. When he went off to college, she left to travel the world, unbeknownst to him, he returned to find his home occupied by other people, and her family surprised he did not know, but not particularly surprised or caring.

He was smitten by her, though he found her irritating and annoying at first, until he learned to ignore her, and started to find her funny, and let her hang around him as he went about his day. She was a city girl and he enjoyed having someone to teach who found his boring life fascinating. It took a while for him to believe that she found him handsome and thought he was intelligent, though she had more education than him, she was not physically capable. She enjoyed organizing and making his home life efficient and watching him work. She lost herself in him, and he got softer and more calm, as she softened his edges. She felt like he took her as she was and did not expect anything from her, and that he was a refreshing change of pace and honesty compared to the people of the city. She loved nature dearly and so settled with him, though her friends and family saw a many but far too gruff and uncivilized man, and did not see why she would be content with life with him, she liked that he was new, not like anyone she'd ever met before, and coming from a city where the girls are all the same, all like her, she liked that he showed her preference by showing very subtle affection. They have the same sense of cynical humor and are curious about each other.
