Face Claim/PB
Victoria Justice
Appearance:
She hasn't changed too much from her original form into her shifted form. She still has her long brown hair and hazel eyes, which appear mostly as deep chocolate brown. Her fair skin is slightly tanner in her new form, but other than that not much has changed. She is still as pretty as she was, despite the fact she has no idea how pretty she is. That or refuses to admit how pretty she actually is. She holds herself high and confident despite people thinking she is strange because of her love for reading. Again, in her town woman were not supposed to read as it would give them ideas.
Back home, she would wear a blue dress with a white blouse underneath it and a white apron to complete the look. She would have a blue ribbon she would use as a hair tie to tie her hair back and black ballet slippers, but she did wear more than just that. Sometimes she was seen wearing a green and pink outfit while at the enchanted castle. The last outfit she was in before the shift was a yellow ball gown that ruffled at the bottom. Her half was in a half up half down hair style with a yellow hair tie of sorts. She also had yellow gloves that went up past her elbows.
Belle will most likely keep her dress similar with dresses in multiple colors and maybe trying jeans out since girls didn't wear them back home. She might own a few nice gowns for any parties that might be thrown, but will stick to just dressing casually as she always has.
Personality:
Isabelle wouldn't be herself if she wasn't kind hearted and intelligent. She is such a kind hearted person who is always nice to whoever she meets. She has gained intelligence over the years by reading books, despite the social norms of her time period. She refused to be like every other young girl in her town. She didn’t want to be a stay at home wife obeying everything her husband asked her to do. She is caring as well and will always be there for her friends and family. She’ll take care of the people she loves and will defend them no matter what, even if it risking herself in a way. She isn’t use to strangers, after all she lived in a small town where everyone knew everything about everyone, so she isn’t used to new people. She doesn’t know how to act around people and can be a bit timid at first with them, despite the fact she carves adventure.
Her attitude on life is that there has to be something better out there. She is tired of her day to day routine and craves adventure. Anything has to be better than her provincial life. She has read about amazing worlds with magic and far far away kingdoms; that is the life she wants to live. Anything is better than being a trophy wife to Gaston. She can’t think of a life that would be worse than being unintelligent wife who is only around to cook, clean and extend the family line, which is something Gaston was looking for. Belle just thinks he is being a conceded jerk who thinks he is all that and a slice of cake. She doubts he has any real feelings for her based on his behavior.
Adventure is what she longs for, if that hasn’t been made clear. She is quite curious when she encounters new surroundings and isn’t afraid to explore. That could wind up getting her in trouble or could she have an amazing time, but needless to say she is brave when faced with fear, or maybe that is just stupidity. Belle would like to think she is brave and not stupid considering the books she has read.

Right Up to that Key Moment
History:
Belle grew up in this small French town with her father who enjoyed creating inventions, much to the laughter of the town. She enjoyed reading and made an effort to head to the book store one morning to drop of a book she finished. There was one book she loved the most and had read in a few times already. The bookshop clerk allowed her to have the book since it was her favorite. She continued to walk around as usually when she was rudely interrupted by Gaston. Gaston wasn’t bad to look at, but his attitude about woman was downright ugly. She wouldn’t be rude and just politely made small talk with him before running off home. Her father was heading to a contest for inventors with his latest gadget.
Later on that day, Gaston had stopped by dressed nicer than he usually did. He really just let himself into her house and was rumbling on and on about the six kids they’d have and how she’d be rubbing his feet after his hunt. Being that she was smart, she led him to think she would say yes but she opened the door and he tumbled out of her house and into mud. She went on about her daily chores till her father’s house showed up. She had the house take her to her father, who was inside a castle in the middle of nowhere. She found her father locked up and decided to take his place so he could head home. The beast was quite nasty at first ordering her around.
She got so upset she decided to leave the castle, but that was short lived seeing as a pack of wolves tried to kill her. The beast had saved her life but, had gotten hurt in the process. That was when he started to change and become quite nice and kind. He showed her his library and they would play outside in the snow together. Next thing you know, it was time for the ball and she had gotten finished with dressing. She was about to head down the staircase when she noticed she was no longer in the castle.
Key Moment: Right after she was all dressed for the dance with the beast. She was about to head down the staircase when she noticed she was no longer in the castle.

A Roleplaying Shift
RP Sample:
She looked at herself one last time in the mirror before taking a deep breath. She opened the door to the room she had been staying in and made her way to the staircase. She was ready for a nice night with the beast that lived in this castle. She was about to take that first step when she noticed she was no longer indoors and was outside in the middle of a meadow. No one appeared to be around and she lifted up her dress skirts and started to walk around. She wanted to take in these new surroundings. She did have trouble walking considering the heels she was wearing before she ended up here.
She continued to wonder when she heard someone from behind her speak. “Welcome to Tenebrae, Miss.” Belle looked confused as she turned to look at the guy dressed in a very nice suit. She had never heard of this place ad it looked nothing like home either. She kept wondering where the castle was and where the beast had gone. Thinking of him back home with no idea as to where she went hurt her. She was falling for him the more she stayed there. “Well thank you I guess. I know I wanted adventure, but I never thought I would actually get it” she replied with a smile.
“You will find that living here will be peaceful and worth your time. We will work hard to return you to where you once came. If you don’t mind, what should I call you?” the man in the suit asked. She knew her name like the back of her hand. She did however go by a nickname instead of her full name. “I am Isabelle Dupont, but please call me Belle. Everyone back home called me that,” She replied to him, “What happened to my old home, where the people I got to know and the castle I was at. How did I end up here?” He kept quiet on that topic and politely took her hand before saying “I will escort you to your new home, Belle. As I have said, you will love living here and we will work hard to return you home as soon as possible.
She followed him, but she did pull her hand away from his so she could lift her dress skirts. She lifted them up to help walk and keep the dress from getting too dirty. After what felt like ages, she and the man in the suit arrived at a gated village of sorts. There were houses and shops all together with a huge gate protecting it from the outside world almost as if it was a private community of people with a common trait. The man in the suit opened up the gate and led her in. He told her what she needed to do and quickly left the gated ‘village’. She took the time to walk around and get familiar with her temporary home.
