Bella Goth (Strangetown)

Maxis created a likeness of Bella Goth and used it as a townie in Strangetown. This version is completely different from the Pleasantview Bella, but is acknowledged by Maxis as the same Bella. The fact that the Bella in Strangetown has no memories of her loved ones or past life is simply blamed on alien experiments during her abduction.

Some players decide to move her to Pleasantview and have Mortimer marry her. If you get Bella to move into a lot in Strangetown, then you can move her house to the Lots and Houses bin. Then, transfer her to Pleasantview by putting her house there. Make her get to know Mortimer by the use of cheats or have her move in to the Goth household, then start doing romantic interactions between the two. However, moving Sims between neighborhoods by way of the Family bin or the Lots and Houses bin has been known to cause corruption in the game. Players who do this are doing it at their own risk.

Some players prefer to play the Bella Goth in Strangetown and consider her to be the real Bella because she has no connection to Pleasantview and is not tied with the Goth/Bachelor family tree, which lends credence to the theory that the alien experiments left her mind wiped. However, if a person were to look at her memories, they will see that she has Create-A-Sim memories. This has led many players to believe that the Strangetown Bella is a fake or perhaps a clone or drone that the aliens have placed in Strangetown themselves.
