Bellanaris

## Application Sheet

Bellanaris was a small, but thickset, brown she-wolf with sunset orange eyes. She was one of the first members of Nahimana's Dawnguard, alongside wolves like Le Serviteur and Inanna. However, she wasn't in the pack long before she was pulled to leave the Domain, alongside a close friend, Badger. She was created and RP'd by Halkuonn.

## Personality

* ***Reckless and Emotion-Driven.*** Bella has an innate talent of jumping headlock into something without thinking twice. It's hard for her to see the bigger picture, so the she-wolf often makes decisions and takes action based on how she *believes* it would be better for her and those she cherishes, not stopping to considerate what results this may bring. A good smack on the head or a pull in the tail, however, usually convinces her to behave.
* ***Questioning and Suspicious*.** Despite her fiery behavior, Bella is not completely gullible. She has a keen interest about the world around her, and is often seeing unashamedly pestering everyone - even strangers - for answers, but doesn't quite trust the information. It's not that she disregards what is said, but rather get consistent proof before believing it. This usually leads her to more trouble than the amount she already gets in.
* ***Unassuming and Friendly.*** Coming from humble origins, she's not a wolf of prejudice nor uncalled for aggressiveness towards others. Weary of being mistreated, she does her best not to reproduce this and avoids being unkind without reason - something quite unusual for a long time loner. Bella relies on experience rather than assumptions when it comes to other living beings and may be easily manipulated by someone with bad intentions that manages to play her.
* ***Outspoken and Indiscreet.*** Bella lacks any good sense when it comes to opinions, and often speaks her mind bluntly - and even worse, tends to create very awkward situations by saying things better remained unspoken. Due to her good-nature, she often doesn't end up hurting others with ill opinions, but will probably get those around her very uncomfortable sometimes.
* ***Confident but Resentful.*** The she-wolf has a very thick emotional shell and it's hard to actually injury her emotionally. After going through a lot of humiliating situations and managing to survive them, Bella basically believes she can face the word with her bare fangs if needed be. But she can be quite overprotective of friends and those she consider decent wolves, and harming of mistreating them or herself is a thing she will never forget.

## Pre-Group History

Bella was born to a small pack in the deep south, a place that lived under a monarchy. Her parents weren't from royal blood - the considered commoners and the working class of the pack. Although comfortable and fruitful, life there wasn't quite so fair, with the royalty abusing of their power and consuming most of the resources, leaving the lower ranks with barely enough to survive instead of sharing it properly. But with those from the royal family being physically stronger and more united than the rest of the wolves, it was no wonder that they'd accept whatever fate their rulers bestowed upon them - at least for a while. One of the workers, a young brave wolf named Jesse, took enough courage to start a rebellion against the King.

The young she-wolf was a reckless and untamed spirit, and did not quite accept quietly to be humiliated like that under such unfair rule, but Bella is not a troublemaker neither a revolutionary - just someone that hoped to live under a less abusive paw. She joined the rebellion and befriended Jesse, helping him to convince others to join their cause, but with the full intention of making it a peaceful event rather than an aggressive one. Maybe, if Jesse trusted her enough, she would be able to show him that they could do it without resorting to violence. Sadly the plan did not go as she intended, and he ended up considering her a traitor rather than an ally. With the rebels turned to her, she had no choice but flee the pack - as she would never betray the rest of the commoners by denouncing them to the royalty.

She has been traveling ever since, avoiding packs for believing that rulers are invariably corrupted by power sooner or later, preferring to live on her own rules and ideals. This never prevented her to gathering quite an amount of friends, being a kind and sympathetic wolf as she is. Bella does not know what had become of her old pack and her family, but doesn't wish to go back there to discover.

## Group History

Bellanaris was among the first members of Dawnguard, under the leadership of Nahimana. She joined with Badger, as well as other wolves, Le Serviteur and Inanna. She was excited about the prospects of this new pack.

She spent most of her time with her best friend Badger, even after joining the pack. Sometimes she would step out of the pack's lands by accident, and once or twice intruded on Aryn territory. Fortunately, when this happened, she was intercepted by wolves like Kris'tran, who were less interested in attacking her than giving a firm warning.

Ultimately, she and Badger decided that pack life wasn't for them, and quickly took leave of Dawnguard to live life as nomads. Their travels took them away from the Domain, and they haven't been seen since.

## Trivia

* She cares for Badger like a brother, and constantly pesters him (as sisters tend to do!)
* She is very finicky with food and already remained days without eating before realizing she'd die if she stuck to it.
* Mocking her size is probably the best way to piss her off.
* She is not really aware of her own strength and may hurt others unintentionally.

## Quotes

* *"Hurry up already! Your legs aren't that short."* (Badger, to Bella, whose response was "Jeez, I'm going!" - *Padstow Farewell*)
