Character Basics
Name: Isabella Marie Swan.
Nickname: Bella; Bells.
Age: 13th September 1987.
Appearance
Looks: Bella Swan considers herself to be a thoroughly average looking individual - absolutely nothing special. She is 5'4" tall and has a slender build, though she is quite soft rather than athletic. She has very long, straight, dark brown hair, which compliments her wide, round, chocolate coloured eyes. Her natural, human skin is very pale, sometimes described as almost translucent, which makes her look very vulnerable, especially in the eyes of her vampire lover. She has a heart-shaped face, with a thin nose and a heart-shaped mouth. Her fingernails are stubby as a result of continuous nervous biting.
Scars, tattoos, other marks: A crescent shaped scar on the hand that James bit. The scar also has vampiric qualities, which include being a few degrees cooler than her natural body heat and shining ethereally in sunlight.
Portrayed by: (may include photo here) Kristen Stewart.
Personality and Stats
Basic Personality: At first appearance, Bella seems to be quite a shy, unassuming girl, who absolutely does not like to be the centre of attention. She keeps herself to herself until she knows who she is dealing with, when she warms up to them a little more. Once she has become attached to someone she tends to be fiercely loyal to them and cares for them with all her enormously passionate heart. She thinks of those she loves most, such as Edward, more than she thinks of herself, though she does have a selfish aspect to her personality, which mostly concerns keeping the person she cares most for safe, rather than her fragile self. She is extremely clumsy, even for a human - she can barely walk ten steps without falling head over heels - and this again adds to the impression that she is a vulnerable young woman that needs protecting. Perhaps the most irksome aspect of her personality is the complete disregard she has for her safety - she completely lacks the natural instinct of self-preservation.
Species: (Human, Vampire, Werewolf) Human.
Abilities: Immunity to vampiric powers that attempt to infiltrate her mind, such as Edward's mind reading.
Occupation: Student. Part-time sales assistant at Newton's Sporting Goods.
Car: 1953 Chevrolet Pickup Truck.
History:
Birthplace: Forks, Washington
Family: Renee Dwyer (mother), Phil Dwyer (step-father), Charlie Swan (father).
Friends: The Cullen family, with the exception of Roselie; Jacob Black and the Quileutes most of the time; Mike Newton; Jessica Stanley; Angela Weber; Eric Yorkie; Ben Cheney; Tyler Crowley; Lauren Mallory (if we're being generous).
History: Isabella Swan was born in the small town of Forks, Washington in 1987 to Renee and Charlie Swan. Happy family life did not last long, however, as Renee felt increasingly trapped by her small town distance. Thus, at only six months old, little Bella suffered the nightmare that is divorce as moved with her mother to the big, bright city of Phoenix, Arizona.
However, as Bella grew up, she also grew to love both her parents, though she was always loathed to visit the rainy little town of Forks. She accepted her mother's flaky ways and became somewhat a mother figure to her own mother. At school, however, Bella never really fit in, she was a little bit of a loner - yes, she had friends, but she was never what you would call 'popular', nor did she enter into any romantic relationships. During this early part of her life, Bella was subjected to piano lessons, until she persuaded her mother to allow her to stop, and a foray into some disasterous ballet lessons.
When she was seventeen, Bella decided it was time for her to make a self-sacrifice, and she moved back to Forks to live with her father. This allowed her mother and new husband, Phil, to have the carefree life that they wanted without feeling that they were neglecting their (step/)daughter. At first Bella hated the overcast little town - she hated the rain, she hated the size and she absolutely hated the attention she was getting from her classmates. She couldn't figure out why they were so interested in her! However, once she had become one of the crowd at school, and once she had worked through the 'Edward Cullen Mystery', Bella began to feel at home.
