Personality: Briefly sum up your character's personality. Bullet points are fine! We don't need an essay, just a feel for your character's personality.


Bela Talbot is a persona that she has created to hide behind. When she was Abby, she never got the love she craved from her parents. They abused her and this played an important part in shaping who she was.

Bela is fiercely independent, she has always relied on herself to get by and this is mostly driven by her occupation. The rest of it is driven by her need to survive. She doesn’t enjoy being indebted to people and likes to settle a score either through payment or information. If you're on her side, she'll treat you well; cross her, and you're asking for trouble.

She is quite intelligent and has a solid knowledge of the supernatural world, which is very important in her line of work. Bela likes money as it fulfils the lifestyle that she leads and would do almost anything to get it. She is very elegant in her mannerisms and the way that she carries herself in front of others, maintaining a polite persona when it is required.

Not only is Bela a thief, she is a con artist: easily slipping into different roles and aliases, using this tactic for when she is on a job for a client. Using her charm and wit to lull people into a false sense of security is something that she likes to do if needed. Bela is not above using her beauty or seduction skills to complete a task; she understands that it is a method that can have quite effective results. Essentially, Bela uses all the tools and skills that she has to achieve her goals, even if she wouldn't like some of her actions at times.

However, there is a quiet and vulnerable side to Bela that most people don't get to see because she doesn't like to show it; she finds it hard to let others in. Due to what happened to her as a child, Bela doesn't trust people easily and has trouble building up relationships. She has built walls around herself and maintains a front to deceive people, afraid to show her true nature.

She is willing to sell people out if it saves her own skin and she did this once to the Winchesters, when she told Gordon Walker (a hunter driven to kill Sam) their location. Bela even went as far to call the FBI on the brothers as a way of leading them off her trail after she stole the Colt from them. There isn't a limit to what Bela would do to survive; she was willing to kill Sam to get out of her deal.


Weaknesses/Temptations: Help us get a feel for what might lead your character off the path to redemption.

One weakness of Bela's is her pride - she wants to be the best and wants others to know it. She rarely asks others for help (when Bela does, it’s usually a means to an end and when she’s desperate) Bela is a very guarded person. If someone found out that she was abused as a child and used that against her, she would find it difficult to handle. 

Vanity is also a weakness of hers. Bela likes to present herself well - make-up, hair, fine clothes - knowing that this could be a way of manipulating others. Using her looks. Looking perfect makes it easier for Bela to hide behind the facade that she has created for herself.

When she was 14, she made a deal with a demon and in ten years time it would come to collect her soul. Bela would be tempted to get out of that deal through any means, even if that would add to her sins. She's also a fan of wealth and riches, so the promise of rewards would make Bela very happy indeed.

She may also be tempted to betray others for something in return. 

Sins: Give us a list of sins your character will be entering the game with. There is a minimum of three.
  • Greed
  • Theft
  • Indirectly killing her parents
  • Deceit
  • Maiming others
  • Manipulation

Powers/Abilities: What sort of abilities does your character possess? Please note the only powers nullified will be ones that could be game breaking. For example, the ability to teleport off the world would be entirely removed.

Bela has no powers but is skilled in the following:
  • Firearms
  • Seances/contacting the dead, use of a Ouija board
  • Picking locks, cracking safes and pickpocketing
  • Disguising herself/taking on another alias/identity

Items: Characters will be allowed up to six personal items in game, not including whatever clothes they're wearing. All items must be able to fit in a duffel bag. The only thing they won't be allowed are pets from home.
  1. Pistol
  2. Box of ammunition
  3. The Colt (It’s a weapon which can kill supernatural beings, but I can nullify it in the game if she isn’t allowed to have it as is.)
  4. Passport
  5. Spare cash
  6. Cellphone

Network: Please note, this is from a previous game I was in:

(video)

[A pretty, green-eyed brunette with damp hair is looking into the camera and she doesn't look too happy.]

If you're going to keep me here against my will, the least you could do is provide some better clothing, yeah? A nicer room wouldn't go amiss either.

[Her tone is blunt, accent unmistakably English. You don't want to mess with this lady.]

Suppose it would be impossible to get a decent drink. [A beat.] Or a hair dryer.

On another note, whomever brought me here is paying for the removal of the tattoo on my arm. I'm not joking about that either.

[The feed ends.]
