## Early History

Arielle was the first born werewolf of Isobel Flemming and and unknown human father. At first she was betrothed to Jackson believing she was going to be the only child of the Labonair line until Hayley was born. Two years after Arielle was born Isobel came back to New Orleans to give birth to Alex and Elena who were born with the names Daniella and Gabriella. And it is said that the youngest of the Labonair line is in line to be alpha.

## Personality

Arielle is known to be very brave in the toughest of times. She is very kind to family and very close friends who are like family. Having the caring nature like her younger sisters Elena and Alex Gilbert.

## Physical Appearance

Physically, Arielle is a very beautiful and attractive young woman with an oval face, light olive complexion, almond-shaped brown eyes and long dark brown hair. As a Labonair, she has the Crescent birthmark on her right shoulder, just like her distant relatives, Eve, Lana, and the Hollow. Arielle has resemblance to the Petrova doppelgängers.

Arielle is an extraordinarily beautiful and seductive young woman: she had a heart-shaped face with fine bone structure, a wealth of brown curly hair, and almond-shaped, deep brown eyes with thick dark lashes. Arielle mainly wears her hair straight down or in a ponytail. Arielle never wears little to no makeup havin living in the Bayou her whole life. She normally wore t-shirts, jeans, and combat boots but after transitioning into a hybrid she still wears the same type of clothing but wears leather jackets and heeled boots.

In her wolf form, Arielle possesses white and black fur and has the typical glowing yellow eyes that comes with Lycanthropy. In her vampire form, Arielle maintains her golden yellow eyes but gains black veins that cascade from her lower eyelids to just above her cheekbones.

## Powers and Abilities

* Werewolf
* Werewolf-Vampire Hybrid

Arielle possessed the standard powers and abilities of a non-Evolved werewolf. She is also a skilled hand-to-hand combatant. She is very skilled with kick/punch combos.

Arielle's physical strength was seemingly unusually strong even for a non-original werewolf-vampire hybrid. She was stronger than some non-Original vampires and has shown to be able to fight vampires of greater age as well, consistently defying normal expectation of such outcomes. Arielle is currently one of the strongest non-original werewolf-vampire hybrid in the world.

Arielle continued to show great skill in physical combat, such as fighting multiple vampires at once and defeating all of them, seemingly one by one. She even moved fast enough that some of them couldn't even counter her attacks and could remove their hearts in the blink of an eye. Recently, Arielle demonstrated yet another unusual level of her powers by transforming into her wolf form within seconds, something that takes werewolves hours to complete, even previous Hybrids such as Tyler Lockwood was unable to transform at such speed. While in her werewolf form she was able to completely dismember them in seconds.
## Weaknesses

Arielle originally had the typical weaknesses of a non-Evolved werewolf until she completed her transition into a non-Original werewolf-vampire hybrid.

## Name

* **Arielle** is a girl's name of French origin meaning "lion of God". While not as popular as the Ariel spelling of Little Mermaid fame, this rendition has achieved popularity in its own right.
* **Dove** is of American origin that means "Bird Of Peace".
* **Labonair** may be derived from Bonaire. This interesting name has a number of possible origins, each with its own distinct derivation. Firstly, the surname may be of Old French origin, derived from the Old French term "bonnaire", from the phrase "de bon(ne) aire", meaning "of good bearing or appearance", and adopted into Middle English as "boner(e), bonour", gentle, courteous, handsome, thence used as a nickname for someone thought to embody these qualities. The surname from this source is found particularly in England and Scotland; one Thomas Boner was the first of the name to be recorded in Scotland as a charter witness in Aberdeen in 1281. Secondly, Bonner may be an Irish (County Donegal) translation of the Gaelic "O'Cnaimhsighe", descendant of Cnaimhseach, a byname meaning "Midwife". Finally, the surname may be of Welsh origin, as an Anglicized form of the patronymic "ab Ynyr", son of Ynyr, a personal name derived from the Latin "Honorius", Honoured.
* **Salvatore** is of Italian origin and means "savior"
