the DESCRIPTION

Celeb Claim: Ellen Page

Appearance:
Isabella's hair never used to be the short length it is now. Her hair used to be half-way down her back, and before joining the thieves guild she had never once trimmed it. As a child, her mothers 'friends' used to admire the length of her hair - one of the many reasons why she has it shorter now, she is no longer reminded of her previous life. Currently, her hair is around the length of her shoulders, and is hardly ever loose. Parts of her layers and fringe covers her eyes, and the rest of it hangs down the side of her face. Bella's hair is naturally straight, and thanks to the dark colour she is not always noticed during the night. Her hair is a dark brown colour, and before she has often daydreamed about it being black, but doesn't have the heart to change it. Despite what many think, she rarely ever touches her hair. She prefers to let it hang down so it covers her eyes.

Bella's eyes are an ordinary shade of brown, and she hates them. To her they're like mud, something which she has a certain dislike for, so she disregards the compliments she receives for the colour. Her attitude is simply 'how could anyone like brown coloured eyes?' Bella often wonders why she had to have brown hair and brown eyes - she sees that as beyond boring. However, the shape of her eyes fits her face rather well, and the colour of her eyes suits the tone of her skin. She has rather pale skin from living in the Lower District of London for most of her life. She believes that if she were to spend a decent amount of time in the sun she would tan quite quickly. However, because of the pollution levels in the city that is near on impossible.

She is far from being tall - in fact, standing at 5' 1 she is the smallest person out of everyone she is acquainted with. Her best friend is around an estimated seven inches taller than her (she isn't entirely sure of his height) and her twin siblings whom are two years younger than her are already taller. Despite the occasional teasing about her height, it is actually quite an advantage in the field of thieving. She is able to hide quickly and efficiently from the police and those suspecting her of stealing, and can also fit into much smaller spaces than anyone else her age. Bella is also thin; yet she has curves in all the right places. As she survives mainly on what money she can gain from stolen objects she has stolen, some weeks are much harder than others. Thus this means her diet is all over the place so it's not surprising that she is as thin as she is.

Personality:
Isabella has always been an out-going person, not afraid to state her opinion or stand up for what she believes in. This outlandish behaviour often draws attention to her, and in her line of work that is incredibly bad. She is far from those that believe that their thoughts are the correct ones, and often tries to see both sides of a story. However, this doesn't mean she isn't adamant that she is right ,yet it turns out she isn't - she has lost many debates with her best friend, making her look like an idiot. Bella is an intelligent woman, but sometimes her ideas or daydreams shadow that. And also when she's with Emmet; he can make anyone look thick. If she still went to school (like she did when she lived in the Higher District) then she would be even more intelligent than she is now.

Having lived in the Lower District since she was ten, Bella is tougher than she appears. Many people see a 5' 1 girl, and assume she is an easy target for a mugging or rape, yet they'll be surprised. Unlike her unsuspecting victims of theft, she knows how to protect herself and isn't afraid to. The last time a 5' 10 man tried to drag her into an alley she managed to break his nose, bruise his ribs and left him clutching his groin as she hurried away. Even though her opinions draw attention, she prefers not to become the center of attention because of her fighting. That is an easy reason for the police to arrest her, and then connect her to the number of reported crimes over the years. So she is quite capable of defending herself, and can become rather irritated when people think otherwise.

Her temper and patience is ridiculously low. If Bella is p!ssed off, or just plain annoyed you will certainly hear about it. When she is having a bad day just one word can cause her to go psycho on you, and she is capable of yelling for hours. People that know her well generally realize when she is upset or angry, and tend to avoid her for most of the day. Yet those that are too stupid or want to antagonize her purposely will often be faced with a shouting sixteen year old. Patience is another trait of hers that seems to be non-existent. The one thing that Bella hates more than anything is having to wait. She has become rather close to be caught when thieving because of her impatience. The main things that trigger Bella's anger are insults, snobs and downright rudeness.

Even though her parents were killed when she was younger, and she was left to raise her younger siblings, Bella is quite an optimistic person. She tends to think the best out of the most horrible situations, although sometimes she knows that you can't always be optimistic about everything. Along with her optimism, she is a happy person. Living with her best friend has changed her attitude dramatically, and she finds herself more cheerful than before she met Emmet. Before him, she would spend her days stealing, selling, and then buying what she could for the family. Now she comes home to an apartment with a comfortable atmosphere and the most amazing family/friend you could ever have. She always seems to have a smile on her face and unless she is in a bad mood her happiness can be contagious.

History:
Isabella Kathryn Watson was supposedly the first-born child of James and Marie Watson. Supposedly being the key word. From the moment she was born she was doted upon by relatives and family friends; many told her parents that she was a beautiful baby which made them all the more proud. At the time of Bella's birth, she already had an older brother by about two years; this was unknown to both of her parents. James Watson wasn't always known by the alias he was now - in fact, he used to be a pirate. A one night stand with a girl he rescued from a ship produced his first son: Fenix Sole. However, he wasn't aware of this and neither were his family. One of the main reasons he changed from a pirate to a politician was the fact he was going to be arrested and didn't fancy spending the rest of his life in prison.

Despite his previous Lower Class life, he was a rich man. As was the woman he married. The Blair's were known for their prestigious roles in parliament and their own lawyers office which made most of the cash. Marrying Marie Blair made James even more rich than he already was, so once Bella was born they lived in the Upper District of London. Isabella grew up in a huge mansion, and despite her mothers occasional visits, she was raised by two maids. She was incredibly close to her father, and maintained a magnificent relationship with him during his life. However, she barely saw him as he was always away on some political meeting, or something similar to that. Marie wasn't a very motherly person by nature, so left the maids to raise her beautiful baby daughter. She herself became lonely during the absence of her husband so started to drink.

Bella was two years old when her twin siblings - Arianna and Anthony Watson - were born. Unlike Bella, the twins didn't get along with their father that much at all. In fact, he became rather distant from the family around the time of the twins birth before becoming sociable again. Marie didn't even have anything to do with the twins. She was always in an alcohol-induced haze, something which James wasn't aware of. Bella and the twins had a close relationship, and before her parents disappearance she was still raising them. Even if their parents were not around for them, the twins were pampered just as much as Bella was.

A few days before her tenth birthday, Bella noticed her fathers erratic moods. He hadn't left her or the twins alone, and seemed like something was going to happen to them. He kept telling them that he loved them, and in the future if he did anything bad that they should try and forgive him. Bella was rather confused by her fathers desperate words, and her nine year old mind couldn't figure out what he was saying. In reality, James knew his time as a politician was up. The corrupted people in parliament were starting to be uprooted and arrested, and he knew it was only a matter of time before he was found out. What made matters worse was Marie figuring out who he used to be. James knew he was going to have to deal with everything soon.

Bella's tenth birthday arrived, and she remembers it as a dismal day. Her mother was acting as she usually did; a little more happier, perhaps. Her father seemed so distant and depressed, it made her sad. On the eve of her birthday, her parents went missing. She was heartbroken, as were the twins. A huge search party came together to try and find them, and exactly five days after their disappearance her mothers body was found. She had multiple stab wounds all over her body, but what made things even more confusing was the absence of her fathers body. People soon gave up the search, and just as the three orphans were about to be sent to a children's home, disaster struck the city.

The poorer people in the city were tired of how they were being treated, so rioting started. Homes were burnt and looted, people killed, most things destroyed. In the massive panic, Bella slipped away with the twins, having stolen some money from her fathers desk drawer. Despite being ten years old she was rather intelligent for her age, and managed to buy an apartment and get a job as a thief. Her small size and nimble fingers were perfect for the job, and she is now one of the best thieves around. It took her a while but she was finally accepted into the thieves guild, and she soon put her previous life behind her. However, Arianna wasn't as accepting of her new status as a Lower Class citizen. In fact, she hated it. She resented living like they were; she still remembered their old live of riches.

Bella was around fifteen when she met Emmet Grady. He was an outcast, she discovered, and he worked for the Order. It seemed that he was on the run, and Bella did the complete opposite of what she would usually have done: she offered a place for him at their apartment. Normally she would of been no-where near as sympathetic, but something about Emmet drew her in and changed her attitude. He came to live with Bella and the twins, and settled in perfectly. She soon learned he was searching for the assassin that had killed his father, and also the man who had murdered the mayor a few months previously - this assassin had committed both crimes. Over time, Bella and Emmet became incredibly close, and are now best friends - before meeting him she cannot remember a time where she is as happy as she is now.

What no-one knows is the assassins name (Fenix Sole) and his relation to Bella (half-brother). Consequently, her best friend is hunting for her half-brother, and she has no idea. Also, Bella's father was the one who killed her mother; using their 'disappearance' as an excuse to run and hide from those still searching for him. Although Bella believed he was dead, this was untrue up until recently where Fenix discovered that James was his father, and tried to kill him. However, James committed suicide before Fenix could.
