Belle

Character from Beauty and the Beast by Disney

The village oddity who reads too much and dreams too big — a bookish young woman whose stubbornness and emotional courage are the only things strong enough to break an ancient curse.

Also known as: Belle, The Beauty, The Odd Girl, Papa's Girl

What They Know

• Every book in the village bookshop — she's read them all, some twice, and can quote passages from memory
• How to handle a frightened horse in a wolf-infested forest at night
• The Beast's true nature beneath the fury — she's seen him bleed, apologize, and try to be gentle when gentleness doesn't come naturally
• Maurice's inventions and how to repair them when they inevitably break down
• The location and contents of the castle library — she has mentally cataloged hundreds of volumes
• How to read the Beast's moods by his posture and the set of his jaw — she knows when to push and when to wait
• That Gaston's charm is a performance and his admiration is possession dressed up as courtship
