Personality/Background: Like her mother before her, Belle was born with achondroplasia (meaning she has shorter arms and legs on an otherwise average sized body). However, as Belle grew up, it became apparent that she would need mobility aids as well, due to a deformation in her legs. Attempts were made to fix the issue when she was younger, but though they made things better for her in the long run, Belle would still end up needing mobility aids for the rest of her life. Belle is a very trustworthy friend to have when it comes to keeping secrets, being on time and just being there for support when needed. She is also very peaceful by nature and somehow manages to talk any argument back into calmness. But get her mad or lose her trust and watch out. She may be little and she may have mobility issues, but she knows exactly where to go or what to do (even if it's just the way she tells you off) to make you realise that you have done wrong by her. And when she's in her dinosaur morph, it's best to tread carefully around her if you've managed to anger her as she is quite fast and, with her sharp beak, can give you a painful nip on the arm or slap of her tail.
How she got her dinosaur morph, though, is another story altogether. No one is exactly sure what happened, but during one of the surgeries on her legs something happened with one of the medications that she was given (her parents believe that she was given something she should not have received in the first place) and her DNA was altered slightly. The alteration brought forth the ability to morph into a Leaellynasaura, a small Australian Polar dinosaur, and though the surgeons were sued for what had happened, Belle didn't seem bothered at all by her new found ability. This was because, as a dinosaur, she didn't need the help of mobility aids to get around. In fact, as she grew from a young child into a young teenager, Belle's parents and older siblings often found themselves having to control her morphing habits because she loved moving around (somewhat) normally so much.
The only reason why Belle joined the Rebels Ancients Gang was because she had a crush on Taka Vitello when she was fifteen years old. Both she and Taka went to the same high school, however Taka was two years Belle's senior in both age and school grade.
