Station: Brother-in-Law and Sister to the King
Princess Annabella or 'Bella' as she is more commonly known is the youngest of the Descoteaux children and as the baby of the family she has to some degree been rather spoilt with affection. Bella is very well educated and well skilled in the arts spending much time embroidering or painting. However her great love is reading, she adores novels much to the displeasure of her elder brothers Leopold and Philippe. Both feel she could be spending her time more productively.
Bella's oldest siblings are King Leopold and Philippe, they're twins and much was made with regard to which twin was more suited to rule many favouring Philippe over Leopold. Bella thinks Leopold is the best ruler Orlais could wish for however, he is fair and just and cares greatly for his people. She feels that so long as Leopold and Philippe work together Orlais is in excellent hands. However though she considers Leopold the better ruler Bella adores dear Philippe, greatly respecting his opinions the two converse easily and after the death of her dearest sister Juliette, Philippe and her dear cousin Elisabeth were her emotional crutches. Being somewhat emotional Bella took her sisters loss particularly hard, she had always idolised Juliette and the two were exceptionally close.
Twenty year old Anne is the next sibling. The illegitimate child of her father and born on the same day as dear Juliette. Bella accepts Anne as a sister but the two don't share the same closeness Bella and Juliette shared.
Growing up Bella was very close to nineteen year old Joseph. However Bella now disapproves of Joseph's reckless behaviour and the two have exchanged many angry words with regard to his conduct. Bella greatly regrets her brothers behaviour and dearly wishes for his behaviour to improve missing the closeness they once shared.
Although only a cousin Bella regards nineteen year old Elisabeth as a sister. Bella was only three years old when Elisabeth came to live with her family. Bella idolised Elisabeth growing up equally as much as Juliette and since the loss of her sister the two spend a lot more time in each others company.
The baby of the family is fifteen year old Cécile, only a year Bella's junior the pair were inseperable growing up even demanding they share a room. However at aged 13 Cécile was sent to France for her education and enable her to become acquinted with her future husband, Prince Philippe, who she is to marry when she turns sixteen. Sadly Bella has not seen Cécile since she left for France and misses her dreadfully though the two write often.
Bella has recently married the eldest son of the Dutch King William V, Prince Frederick. Though ten years her senior Bella finds Frederick very attractive. He has so far been a very attentive husband and has lavished her with gifts. Although happy in her marriage Bella greatly misses Orlais and her dear family and was loathe to say goodbye to Elisabeth who had accompanied her on the journey to her new life.
The marriage of Princess Annabella and Prince Frederick was arranged by Bella's elder brother King Leopold and is one of the few things Leopold and Philippe have managed to agree on, both brothers feel it is in the best interests of Orlais that an alliance be made between the Netherlands and Orlais due to the ever present threat of the French.Though a peace treaty was made between the two countries years ago the Orlaisians have a long memory and distrust the french.
