Judgment-class Honkai Beast, Benares	1	Possessed the elements of ice, fire, and lightning. Because of the difference between worlds, her strength was limited to the Ultimate Douluo level.
Pseudo-Void Core preparation	62	Xiling created a Pseudo-Void Core with Honkai Energy while in Herrscher form, intending to grant Benares a human body and intelligence.
Human form and space authority	63	The completed Pseudo-Void Core fused into Benares, transforming her into Bella and granting her the space element in addition to her original three elements. Her authority ranked only below Xiling's.

Background

Benares was originally the Judgment-class Honkai Beast that accompanied the Herrscher of the Void. After Xiling awakened the Void Core, she slept in an unknown space connected to his perception and could be summoned at his command. As his guardian beast, she obeyed only him 1 2.

Xiling created the Pseudo-Void Core to give Benares a human body and human intelligence. Once it fused with her, the enormous dragon condensed into a human girl; Xiling named her Bella. Her gaze softened immediately upon seeing him, and she accepted him as her “Queen” 62 63.

Appearance

Bella has both a colossal dragon form and a humanoid form, each marked by ice-blue coloration and a chilling presence 61 63.

• Human form
  • Tall and slender, with fair skin, waist-length light-gray hair, and crystalline icy-blue eyes 63 65.
  • Usually wears an icy-white and deep-blue fitted combat dress with crystalline ice patterns 63.
  • Has translucent ice wings, normally folded behind her back 63 101.
  • Later adopts a simple black maid dress and keeps her hair neatly tied while serving Xiling 148.
• Dragon form
  • A thousand-meter dragon with a wingspan of roughly six hundred meters 61 62.
  • Covered in ice-blue and white scales, with glowing icy-blue patterns and immense frost-producing wings 61 62.

Personality

Bella is cold, quiet, and distant toward nearly everyone except Xiling. Her loyalty is instinctive and absolute: she assesses anything approaching him as a potential threat and is prepared to eliminate danger immediately 65. She has little interest in the gratitude, politics, or opinions of powerful figures outside Xiling's circle 103 127.

Her protectiveness can become possessiveness. Bella openly asserted herself against Na'er and reacted violently when Gu Yue embraced Xiling, sending Gu Yue flying because she disliked the display 68 128.

Over time, she displays a gentler side around Xiling and the orphanage children. She gives unwanted gifts to the children, enjoys Xiling's affection, and learns to cook in order to please him 127 148.
