The Past
xxxxxBelle Bryce was nothing if not the sweetheart of Aleswich. She brought home every stray and made herself a friend to all. There was a strange combination of Martha Stewart and a Victoria Secret Model. Sadly, she's never played up the second of those things. Belle was born and raised in Aleswich. She never dated much until a college professor turned her head. After that, there was a whirlwind that would soon define her life. It would be her marriage to Shepard Landace. She had a daughter and life moved on as it should, until one day it didn't.
The Present
xxxxxThe world is not the same. Belle arrived in Safe Haven with her daughter and a lot of distrust. Everything started to go wrong from the moment she arrived and like some, Belle lost herself to that darkness. She was sure nothing was real and everyone was just another test. As it went forward she came to accept her new reality. It's brought her a little bit back to the happy woman she normally is. Right now, she's trying to find her niche and help as much as she can.


What is Known

  • Family: Belle was a member of the Bryce family in Aleswich. As well as the Landace family through her marriage. What connection she has to them now is unknown.
  • Tragically Happy: Belle is happy and upbeat most times, however this world is different. It is hard to tell how tragic or happy a life here will be. Belle tends to hold out hope and try to inspire that in others, but to every good coin there is an opposite side.
  • Ambitious: Belle was raised as a Bryce. It might not mean anything in this society now, but it does to her. There are parts of her personality that have been formed by this identity. A Bryce never loses without using it to their advantage. A Bryce secures everything that needs to be done. Belle is nothing if not ambitious and that could work against her.
  • Order: Aphrodite is hoping to be member of the Vox Draconis (Silver Ladder). It is not entirely clear yet as to what her role will be here, now that things have obviously changed.
  • Parent: Belle has a bundle of baby with her most places she goes. She's been a mother since October 30, 2014. Her daughter, Victoria, is the light of her life and full of promise.

Soundtrack

Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone else's game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap!
If you're lost and alone
Or you're sinking like a stone.
Carry on.
May your past be the sound
Of your feet upon the ground.
Carry on.
