For internet purposes I am Bella Morte. In reality Bella is a fictional character that I created back in 1994, before I had even heard of the band of the same name or Laurell K Hamilton's character in her Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series. I created her originally for Dungeons & Dragons, then a few months later I switched her over to Vampire: The Masquerade. I never got to play her in either games, so she demanded that I write stories about her. In doing so, I combined her original history with her new V:TM history and, the rest as they say, is history lol. Her character statistics are in the far right scroll box in this panel, with her history story (as well as any other stories) are in my blog. I hope you will take the time to read them and hope you like them (Bella cracks a very mean whip lol).

Just for clarification... the character Bella is bi-sexual - *in stories only*.

BellaMorte and KatieR got together and wrote this paragraph about themselves. Why together? Because they live in the same house ;)

I am taken, I am straight, I speak only English, my A/S/L is listed above so read it. I am short, a tad over weight and am not attractive, but not ugly - just average. I don't deal face-to-face very well because I am shy, therefore tend to be blunt. I have been told that because of my bluntness I can be quite rude, which is unintentional. Ask me a question and I give a straight answer, I do not cyber. Friendship and chatting is all that you will get from me. If you accept the above then we can chat. Break them and you are history.

Well, I may be a modern gal but I don't go chasing up guys to chat, even for friendship. I leave that up to them. If you have read my rules and are happy to abide by them then feel free to start a chat with me.

One of my pet peeves is people calling koalas "koala bears". They are not even remotely related to a bear. A bear is a mammal while a koala is a marsupial. Don't tell me that you will always call them that because it is the same as calling some named Jean and saying it as Gene when it is pronounced as John. It is a proper name and deserves to be said correctly. Get it right people! -=rant over lol=-

If you invite me to a chat and I don't respond then I am either already in a number of them and can't accept another or am away from my computer.

But beyond the above, here is a bit about my character... All other stories will be placed in my blog :).

Bella Morte came into creation one night while I was home alone. She was born on a world unknown to us and while she may look human she is not.

The second youngest of 5 children she came from a loving family. However, things happen and things are perceived differently by different people, including herself, and she decided to run away from home. At the age of 16 Bella arrived on our lovely planet on what would be known as the South American continent in the year 1383, which places her equivalent birth year at 1367.

Bella was taken in by a small village of natives similar to her own people, except they spoke a different language. Just a little over three months in her new life she is attacked by a white jaguar. The villagers think she has been blessed by one of their most sacred creatures. Bella didn't know it, but during those first nine years she had become part were-jaguar. Why she never became a full were-creature no one knows but it could be because she isn't human. However, she did have some of the jaguar's abilities and made full use of them.

Bella is not hard to miss in a crowd standing at 6'5" by the time she turned 25. Now 25, life turns upside down for her yet again. She was embraced by a vampire. Her race of people from her home world were ruled by blood and she tried desperately to escape that way of life only to be turned into a creature of the night and once again become dominated by the need to spill (or in this case drink) blood.

As if that isn't enough hassles for the poor woman she also has been suffering dreams about an alternate version of herself three months after she arrived on earth. It is like she is living two lives at the same time. While the worlds are different and some of the events are not the same, quite a bit of her alternate self is similar if not the same... But, is the alternate dream self real? Will she ever know?

While the brief above, and full version that is in my blog, is the original story line for Bella, she has no hesitation in dragging me, kicking and screaming, into writing other stories with her in them lol, and you might find them in the blog as well.
