Arabella Shadowblood

### Age

"To be completely honest, I don't even know. I stopped ages a long time ago. But I guess I'm 17?"

### Killer Style

"Anything in Victorian style, it is to die for. Being born and from Londoom, Victorian or anything with the British is to die for. I love it."

### Monster Quirk

"*Ugh* not seeing my reflection is a total *nightmare*."

### Pet

"Long Shadow, a vampire puppy. My father gifted him to me a couple of years ago."

### Favorite Activity

"Volunteering. I love helping monsters that don't have what I have. Helping them gives me a purpose with what I want to do and what I can do to help others"

### Biggest Pet Peeve

"Monsters thinking just because I come from a wealthy family think I'm going to be a snob. I am not. My Mother came from a rather poor background and she taught me to never take things for granted and to work hard for it. That's what I have been doing all my life."

### Fav School Subject

"Creative Drawing. I just love to draw, it helps me express myself."

### Least Fav Subject

"History. If you are a vampire, you've been around for a *long time* and you know things."

### Favorite Food

"Andrei has introduced me to fruit smoothies, and I've fallen in love with them. But O- Blood is also good."

## Relationships

### Family

#### Carmella Shadowblood, mother

Arabella has a very close relationship with her mother and loves her dearly. To her, Carmella is strong and brave. Given the hard life Carmella and her sister had growing up, Arabella found her brave and strong never giving up until her happiness came.

#### Xandria Heartblood

* Relationship: *Maternal Cousin*

    As children, Arabella was very close to her cousin, Xandria, as the Heartbloods lived in Londoom for a while. Eventually, Xandria and her parents returned to New Salem, and the girls' relationship sort of suffered, though, tried to keep in touch. It was only the last year and a half did the girls reconnect. It was during one of their conversations did Xandria end up talking about how she transferred to Monster High, which piqued Arabella's interest.

Months later, Arabella moves to New Salem where she'll be living with her Uncle Dante and Aunt Katherine while attending Monster High.

#### Dante & Katherine Heartblood

* Relationship: *Maternal Aunt & Uncle (Mother and Aunt are sisters)*

Dante and Katherine Heartblood are Xandria's parents, Arabella's Uncle and Aunt. Arabella is related to them through Carmella, as Katherine is her younger twin sister. Arabella is close to her aunt and uncle since the Heartbloods and Shadowbloods remained close during the girls' childhood. Between the girls' tween and teen years, Dante and his family moved back to the Boonited States of America where his family was from and where his company was. The two families still kept in contact and visited during holiday breaks and summer vacations. When Arabella transfers to Monster High, she will be staying with them as her parents are going to continue living in Londoom.

#### Grandparents

Arabella doesn't know much about either set of grandparents, besides her father's mother. Her mother and aunt's parents passed away when they were young, or as she was told. As for her father's side, Arabella only knows her grandmother, Celeste. Her paternal grandfather, Nathaniel Morningbane, left when Aelfric was only a year old for unknown reasons.

#### Celeste Shadowblood

* Relationship: *Paternal Grandmother*

Arabella has a close relationship with her paternal grandmother and loves her dearly. Celeste, despite her age, is currently traveling around the world, and always sends things back to her family. She adores Carmella and very much likes how she's helped her son, especially showing him different stereotypes of the monsters and the "ranks" within Londoom (according to Celeste Carmella changed Aelfric for the better). Celeste honestly does not care that Carmella was poor.

### Friends

#### Andrei Vasile

Through her boyfriend, Arabella met his best friend Andrei. Instantly the two became good friends and despite what other students say, neither possesses any romantic attraction to each other. They see each other as siblings, nothing more. Heck, Arabella was the first monster Andrei called after meeting Clarity and thinking he might have a crush on her.

#### Clarity Beauchêne

Arabella met Clarity through their boyfriends. Right away, Arabella could see how Clarity attracted Andrei. She also learned a bit of her page (just so Arabella wouldn't say something on accident that could offend Clarity). Arabella was able to show Clarity she was someone she could trust and have as a friend.

#### Carmet Fangs

    Arabella came to know Carmet through her cousin, Xandria, as the two were classmates at Belfry Prep before the merge with Monster High. Though they don't really get together, Arabella is kind to him.

### Romance

#### Boyfriend - Alessio Nikolay

Arabella first met Alessio through a Pen Pal program through her school - Eternal Runner Academy - and his - Belfry Prep. Even when the Pel Pal Program edited, the two continued writing and communicating, turning to Video Phone Calls (boy that was a surprise to their parents on the phone bill), and emails.

By the time she arrived at Monster High, she and Alessio had been dating long-distance for about four months.

### Enemies

Arabella has no known enemies at this time.

### Pet

#### Long Shadow, puppy
