A housemaiden under the employ of the Tuatha De nobility. Known for being exceptionally beautiful and very tempting, which is her most deadly weapon (apart from her physical and military training). Also she can change her appearance easily into whatever attracts her mate the best, making her hard to recognize apart from the voice.
Three of her most used forms are of a maid (which John, her husband, noted that it's his favorite), a swordswoman (often used when going outside so that she doesn't look innocuous), and of a soldier (only sometimes used when helping John, otherwise John refuses her help for fear of being unable to focus. But still, without John's knowledge, she often provide sniper fire)
Unlike her beloved, she prefers semi automatic or precision targeting due to her most frequent military training being heavily trained on using pre-automatic weaponry military hardwares.
Bell Springfield isn't her true name actually, with Bell being named after shortening the Royal Amelion* Navy battleship "HMS Belfast" which she had experienced in commandeering and she planned to use it as a future home, and "Springfield" from the legendarily durable and reliable early 20th century United States of Amelion made bolt action sniper rifle "M1903 Springfield".
*yes, in Mobius, the US and UK are under the same flag due to post-independence naval invasion of Britain by the United States Navy around 1780s.
Once she introduces herself, immediately, she become a sister figure to Lugh, while on the spot, proposing to marry John, as her very purpose to become a housemaiden is to find a young, strong mate.
She offers her lifetime service towards John especially, with no payment... Apart from being her lover.
According to John, she has a calming and sisterly feel whenever she's present, where John often felt that every of his uneasy feeling from worriness to anxiety gone, most of the time. It helps that every night after being married she often sleeps beside John... only for John to wander around while feeling energized after doing the deed.
While she 100 percent resembles a human woman physically, she... apparently isn't.
The most obvious is that she's already around ever since John and Lugh was young, away from plain sight due to her tendency to surprise people. Her appearance as a twenty-something woman had never change by years.
According to reports and warnings given,
She can regenerate easily especially with the help of "male fluids" and even apparently reverse signs of aging.
Even if she apparently killed, her spirit presence can easily "linger" and tempt male into giving his fluid into her remains, regenerating her.
Those who consummate with her could also feel that the male's aging is delayed and, though sometimes exhausted and tired, could feel refreshed (it helps that for John, he often consumes night coffee while doing night time works he's known for).
That did not, however, prevent the eventual end of age of her mate, though the inevitable is often delayed by having one of her mate lived up to 200 years old and John looks like an early adult despite hitting 33. Though according to John, Bell spoke very kindly of her late mates before.
Also, she cannot conceive or bear a children, due to her age being past the human fertile age. The fluid is instead consumed by the body to reverse her aging and healing.
She can easily exert pheromones that either made her mate asleep easily if already tired, or being invited to do the deed if it's not.
That being said, unless you're on her bad side (though she often lightly kills whoever stand in her way), you have nothing to worry due to her kindheartedness and that she seeks a good-hearted mate, as according to her, the taste of the fluid is as good as the heart.
She took assassination with the Tuatha De nobility as a living, along with having a permanent resident as a housemaiden. Even as a housemaiden, her room is more of a noble, and as John married her, she's sharing the same room as John's (though both often wander around at times especially when John needed alone time)
She often has no need for money and riches for herself apart from the bare essentials, the only thing she needs and wants is that so that she can make her mate happy. According to her, John is the most genuine lover ever in her unusually long lifetime. She is also generous in providing something, be it money or power, to those close to her.
"John, please don't bore me... Or else, you'll make a fine meal for me... Ufufu, just kidding! If you can kiss me, then kiss me. Embrace me! Or... You may become my hug pillow every time i want to sleep~ufufu..."Of course, she's just teasing, given that John could never bore her especially how with a bit of pheromone John can somewhat be" steered" or that John doesn't mind to be treated as a hug pillow whenever he's resting around Bell.
"The braver and kinder you are, the tastier you'll become. So please, give in!"
After John leaving the nobility and establishing Archer Logistics, she parts amicably with the nobility. Not so much with John, who were simply tired of the "assassination" business seemingly unending in the land of Alvarn and surrounding areas.
Regardless, John and Bell, as a married couple, has an unending honeymoon for years.
However, apart from the angelic exterior, something insidious is hidden.
Her forms affect her personality. She can consciously and at will change forms, but her personalities differ each other.
As a housemaiden or a barmaid, she tended to be "kindly
but seductive" or "motherly but girly" respectively, but as a Sage, ever since she discovered and unlocked
the magick inside the Sagestone, deep inside her body and soul, add
"mischievous" on top of those...
Her apparent true form, discovered after she "unlocks" the innate magical ability within her, is of a Sage, a high leveled, extremely powerful mage with the form of a blonde haired beauty (not that the other forms are beautiful but John considers it the most beautiful one) wearing something like a 19th century dress and being capable of using magic and transferring it into an item or somebody else. She added "Aster", as in the flower, to her name as well.
"The target exhibits a classic low-affect personality."
"Psychopathic disregard for others, narcissistic world-view punctuated by self-obssessive disorders"
It is revealed that, as a Sage due to her ability to create magical spells and perks and granting them to those she chooses, in her supposed true form as a Sage, she took bringing people in from a (considered to be) miserable and decaying "Alpha Universe" (in other words, the "real world") to Mobius as a side job, thinking it's "fun" eventually recruiting them into the Logistics as Sage like her.
Unfortunately, under the apparent influence of the nigh-limitless power granted by the Sagestone (later known as the Amelion Bloodstone), her common sense has been somewhat lapsed, treating the universe like a sandbox, and basically became devoid of true love anymore apart from her love to her beloved one and their associates.
She even took to things unthinkable before like subconsciously mind controlling her beloved John ("this is a grown-up matter!") to suppress his inquisitive behavior and at a brief moment in the end, directly controls him, and also being casual to murder innocents (something that John even frowned upon, but he didn't knew up until the end).
In the end, amidst all the chaos she intentionally or not caused, it was her beloved that eventually saved her because, conditional or not, mind control or not, John truly loves her.
