...appearance*
hair color Blond

build Tall and slender, not too bulky but enough to make her look not anorexic.
height Five feet, six inches.
clothing style ... let's not go there. SERIOUSLY.
distinctive traits She has a small gap between her front teeth which, to some, contradicts her glamorous and trendy outlook (and, might I add, anytime someone says this to her face they get a good verbal beating and sometimes some rumors boiled up about them. She doesn't know any way else to deal with them), but always makes her end up looking either malicious or disgusted, which is (in one way or another) what she intends.
...personal*
personality Belladonna is one of the most popular girls at Baum. She has total control over everything, and has everything a girl could ever wish for... Yeah, right. In reality, Belladonna is still trying to climb the social ladder of the school's hierarchy, taking down whoever's in her way. There is simply one problem, though. She's nowhere close to doing it right. Belladonna overdoes everything that she thinks will get her to the top. She overdoes the makeup, the clothing, EVERYTHING. Basically, she's the sort of girl who gives popular girls a bad name.
Only adding to her list of sad traits, Belladonna is very desperate and very, very melodramatic, with heavy emphasis on the latter. Of the smallest things, Belladonna will make a huge deal about it, much to the dismay of others around her. She never wants to admit she's wrong, and won't accept help, claiming she knows how to do it herself. She is, on that note, very rebellious and doesn't listen to anything. Except Justin Bieber. She'll listen to him GOOD.
... What? Oh, Justin Bieber's out now. Never mind. Bieber sucks.
As shown, Belladonna's personality changes like the tides. One day she likes this, and the next day she'll totally hate it. Vice versa applies as well, with one day disliking something and condemning it and the next, immediately liking it again. It gets annoying after a while, much like what the general public thinks of her. Quite frankly, Belladonna is also naive to what everyone thinks about her behind her back, being totally convinced that everyone likes her and that she knows everything about everything about everything.
... Sick of her yet? Faryl is.
past
One obvious thing that immediately sets Belladonna apart from people who actually matter is that she wasn't born into a rich family. Instead, Belladonna was born into an average, middle-class family who was struggling to stay afloat. Her parents weren't expecting a very demanding child, but they got one anyway. Naturally, her parents didn't have any more children, which left Belladonna naturally spoiled. It wasn't exactly bad at first. It was just some toys and dolls and the usual thing. It didn't get to be a problem for them financially until Belladonna started middle school at the age of twelve.
At that time, she started getting into makeup, hair accessories, magazines, clothes, the like. Her parents had reluctantly bought so much stuff for her that they were eventually driven into debt. They tried to explain the situation to her, but Belladonna was too naive to listen. After a while, she began to demand why she hadn't been getting her "required accessories." At first, Belladonna was in denial, claiming her parents had hated her and hid all of their money from her because she was being too whiny and demanding (which would have been not far from the truth had they had money). Then, after a while (around the beginning of seventh grade) she was deeply depressed, and gave up her scheme for a while (which made people like her slightly better, but not enough for her to notice much). Soon after that, though, the scheme was back in action. She made some friends (shockingly) and borrowed some of their clothes that were her size. Anything to fool people into thinking she was dreadfully rich. They had to be careful, though, because some people remembered everything everyone wore, and would have started to get suspicious if other people started to wear the same things on different days. In that case, they started to divide their wardrobes in half - the stuff they wore and the stuff they hadn't touched. On borrowed/stolen/given clothes and makeup and more sass than anyone else in the school [never bothered to have], Belladonna waltzed through the rest of middle school and the first year of high school.
Taking advantage of the fact that Belladonna was out of the picture for now, her parents started to rapidly save up money to potentially pay off their massive debt. However, their biggest break came when Belladonna had to move into Baum's dorms (besides, they had to pick a cheap school that was kind of FAR FAR AWAY), and therefore cease contact from them for a while. It wasn't until the end of her freshman year that she realized her parents had moved out of state, taking their dwindling savings with them and leaving Belladonna with a credit card to her own bank account, which might have been the worst choice they'd ever made.
present
Surprisingly, Belladonna is faring quite well. Despite the fact that she is literally buried in credit card debt (which she is slowly but surely trying to dig her way out of with the dreadfully low-paying job she has and the fact that she sells her old clothes to the secondhand shop because she feels they shouldn't be burned), she continues to attempt to catch up to the newest trends and throw out the old ones just as the pros do. She seems to have gotten the hang of high school life, and she (hopefully) would get to make some (probably fake) friends who would (hopefully) help her scale the social ladder to the very top.
Are cigarettes and alcohol helping her any? Nope. But she's going that direction anyway. It's not like her parents give a crap anyway. Her life in itself is spiraling downward, she's failing school (pretty badly, I must add), and yet she wears these negative traits as a badge of honor for her classmates, as if purposely destroying your own life is going to get you anywhere in high school...
This is going to be one crazy year.

...literature*
book title Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
backstory The main antagonist of Snow White is her stepmother, known only as the Queen (although I think she has another name, Narissa or something like that). She is very vain, and so constantly questions the magic mirror that is in her possession who the "fairest one of all", or the most beautiful in the land, is. She is continuously satisfied when the mirror answers that she is, until one day, the mirror gives a different answer: Snow White is the fairest one of all. Enraged, the Queen summons a hunter to kill Snow White (despite the fact that she's... well, related) and to bring back her heart. He returns with a heart, but she does not realize it is not Snow White's (it is a goat's heart, I think. *has not watched Snow White in forever*) until she questions the mirror again, only to have it give the same answer as before: Snow White.
Seeing as though the hunter did not kill Snow White, the Queen takes matters into her own hands by using magic to transform herself into an old hag. She then poisons an apple which she would give to Snow White so that she would die. Somehow, the Queen tracks down where she and the dwarfs are, and while the dwarfs are away at work, the hag comes up to the door and hands Snow White the apple. She eats it and falls on the floor, seeming to be dead.
idk what happens next but at the end the hag is thrown off a cliff and dies while Snow White and the prince live happily ever after.
