'''Bella Goth''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|b|ɛ|l|ə|_|ɡ|ɒ|θ}}) {{nee|Bachelor}} is a pre-made, playable [[Sim]] that first appeared in ''The Sims'', alongside her husband, [[Mortimer Goth|Mortimer]], and her daughter, [[Cassandra Goth|Cassandra]], residing at [[5 Sim Lane]]. Between ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2'', Bella and Mortimer had one more child, [[Alexander Goth|Alexander]], and moved to [[165 Sim Lane]] in [[Pleasantview]]. Shortly before the start of ''The Sims 2'' Bella went missing, having been abducted by aliens, and hasn't yet returned.
Bella is the daughter of [[Simis Bachelor|Simis]] and [[Jocasta Bachelor]], and is the younger sister of [[Michael Bachelor]], who also makes an appearance in ''The Sims'' and can be found in the [[family bin]]. She later appears as a child in ''The Sims 3'', where she grew up in a large home in [[Sunset Valley]] just down the road from her future husband, Mortimer.
Bella and her family return in ''The Sims 4'', albeit in an alternate timeline, where they live at [[Ophelia Villa]] in [[Willow Creek]].
==Biography==
===Life leading up to The Sims 3===
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', Bella starts as a child (7 days to teen) who lives with her mother, [[Jocasta Bachelor]], father, [[Simis Bachelor]], and older brother, [[Michael Bachelor]]. Because she is still a child, she goes by her maiden name of Bachelor. She wears a red dress because this is her favorite color. Oddly, she has hazel eyes, even though she has brown eyes in ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2''. When she grows up, she looks different from the adult versions of her from ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2''; her lips are thinner and her eyes are much bigger. Bella and Mortimer Goth are best friends. Her traits are [[Good (The Sims 3)|good]], [[brave]] and [[lucky]]. She attends elementary school and is a good student. She is also slightly gothic, which is evidenced by her room and playroom being decorated with skulls, which may hint at why she married Mortimer, and also at her interest in the paranormal. She has one point of the [[painting]] skill. There is sometimes a glitch where her thumbnail, picture in relationship panels, and picture in wishes appear with her as a child, similar to Mortimer Goth. Bella has a good relationship with her family. She is said to be 'well-behaved' and the best dressed girl around.
Worlds in ''The Sims 3'' are believed to be placed in different parts of the main timeline, and it has since been confirmed by SimGuruSarah that the [[Bella Goth (Lunar Lakes)|Bella Goth]] in Lunar Lakes graveyard is the same Bella from Pleasantview and Strangetown.<ref>[https://twitter.com/SimGuruSarah/status/436179978724450304 SimGuruSarah confirmed that Lunar Lakes Bella is Sunset Valley Bella]</ref> Thus by the time of Lunar Lakes, Bella is dead. Her appearance (with her yellow hair, gaunt face and greenish skin) is very different in this town than in previous towns, but it is in line with other deceased Sims buried in the Lunar Lakes cemetery. How or when she got to Lunar Lakes remains unconfirmed, as is whether or not she ever reunited with her family after her alien abduction.
===Life leading up to The Sims Bustin' Out===
In ''[[The Sims Bustin' Out (console)|The Sims Bustin' Out]]'', Bella Goth lives with her husband Mortimer Goth in Goth Manor. Her daughter Cassandra Goth may or may not have been born yet. She works as a Horror Movie Extra in the Movie Star Career and likes to play the piano and read when she's not working. Her favorite interactions are telling stories and nagging about friends. She has a completely different personality in this game than in the others. Her dress appears to be of a different design, her skin is much lighter, and her hair is a reddish-brown.
===Life leading up to The Sims (console)===
Bella Goth appears in [[The Sims (console)|''The Sims'' (console)]] version with her husband Mortimer Goth and daughter Cassandra Goth living in 5 [[Sim Avenue]]. She still wears the same red dress and shoes, and has black hair. She shares a 90+ relationship with her husband and a 20+ relationship with her daughter. She likes to read, play chess, feed fish and mourn at the tombstones. Her brother [[Michael Bachelor]] is in the [[Family Bin]] as a playable character. However, their relationship is not stated, and Michael remains a separate character from her line of the family. Oddly, in this game and ''The Sims Bustin’ Out'', Bella has brown hair, though in all other appearances in the series, Bella has black hair (which is genetic as proved in ''The Sims 2''), implying that she dyed her hair in those games.
===Life leading up to The Sims===
Bella Goth, her husband, Mortimer Goth, and her daughter, Cassandra Goth, are first introduced in ''[[The Sims]]''. She is an elegant, yet athletic, woman who seems to enjoy playing golf. Her activities when played will either be painting or playing the piano, which gives credibility to the theory that she may also be a very creative and talented person. She wears her trademark red dress, and has black (or very dark brown) hair worn at medium length.
She is unemployed at the start of the game and, just like her husband, has no skill points in anything. She has an extremely good relationship with Mortimer, with the two starting at a mutual 100/100 relationship level. She is also friends with her daughter Cassandra, but does not know any other Sims in the neighborhood.
Since there are no familial relationships in ''The Sims'', she has no relation to her brother Michael Bachelor, nor do any in-game lore even indicate the two are related, although they do share a similar facial structure, hair color and skin color.
===Life leading up to The Sims 2===
By the time the storyline has caught up to ''[[The Sims 2]]'', Bella has had another child, [[Alexander Goth]], and has disappeared via [[alien abduction]]. It is then also revealed that Bella is Michael Bachelor's sister. She does exist in [[Pleasantview]], but is hidden within the game code and can only be found using cheats or third-party programs. Bella's disappearance is a major component to the background story of Pleasantview and it's theorized that Maxis picked her for this major role because she is a mysterious, yet elegant, woman. Her last known whereabouts are [[Don Lothario]]'s deck, and Don's photo album and memory panel show that he had attempted some romantic interactions with Bella, which she didn't accept, before she mysteriously disappeared. Many of [[Mortimer Goth|Mortimer]]'s, [[Cassandra Goth|Cassandra]]'s, and Alexander's memories involve Bella, meaning that she hasn't been gone for too long. On the family tree panel, Bella's face is not grey, which indicates that the game does not consider her to be dead. Although her husband and daughter have memories of her being abducted by aliens, the story does not explicitly state what happened to Bella. Oddly enough, most of the furniture was left untouched after she left. If a Sim uses the [[Career rewards#Prints Charming Fingerprint Scanner|fingerprint scanner]], much of the furniture was touched by her. [[Maxis]] created a likeness of [[Bella Goth (Strangetown)|Bella]] and used it as a [[townie]] in [[Strangetown]]. This version is a little different than 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. Strangetown Bella's career is randomized at the start of the game, whereas the Pleasantview Bella, if brought back, has no personality points, career and no premade memories, and she cannot be played without the use of hacks such as [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]]. Another odd detail is that, if Bella is brought back, Mortimer's relationship with her will be that of acquaintances rather than spouses. The reason for this is because the developers did not set the correct relationship flags.
<blockquote class="note">Relationship flags such as Crush, Love, and Married are normally unset when a Sim dies, and reset when that Sim is resurrected. It may simply be that the methods needed to bring Bella back do not reset these flags, or that they were not set when Maxis created Bella and Mortimer for The Sims 2.</blockquote>
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 to the [[Goth family|Goth]] and [[Bachelor family]] trees, which lends credence to the theory that the alien experiments left her mind wiped. A further area worth looking into is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7CIJ60Ri18 the cinematic] when Alexander Goth goes off to [[College (sub-neighborhood)|university]]. If Mortimer is already deceased, the scene that the player sees before they enter the university features a regular Bella as Alexander's mother and she is sobbing about the loss of her son as he is grown up, but still remains missing afterwards. On ''[[The Sims 2]]'' website, there is an interview<ref name="interview">[https://web.archive.org/web/20120605015012/http://thesims2.ea.com/community/bella_interview.php Interview with Bella Goth] on theSims2.com (web archive)</ref> that explains her disappearance, saying that she is the same person as Strangetown Bella Goth. Another odd fact is that she is seen looking through a ''small'' telescope on Don Lothario's deck, even though it is impossible to get abducted through this telescope in normal gameplay. This might be a mistake overlooked by the creators to show good story-telling pictures for the neighborhood.
===Life leading up to The Sims 2 (PSP)===
By the time the storyline has caught up to the PSP game, Bella is hiding from aliens in [[Strangetown]]. She still doesn't remember her family and likes chocolate. According to [[Mambo Loa]], Bella is not good at keeping secrets. She is looking to sell her home (the [[Espiritu Estate]]) which she despises a lot because it is haunted by three scary ghosts ([[Emily Emory]], [[Nervous Subject]], and Dennis Philips, one of [[Hazel Dente]]'s previous husbands). She sells her home for all the money that the player has.
Bella's secrets from ''[[The Sims 2 (PSP)]]'':
#(Personal): Bella married for money... but stayed for free premium cable!
#(Intimate): Bella never REALLY loved Mortimer... she married him for his money.
#(Dark): Bella knows Kung Fu. A man named Kung Fu. He does all her landscaping. Nice guy.
#(Bella's Alien Secret): Bella is running away because she was abducted by aliens!
===Life leading up to The Sims Social===
Bella first appeared in a short interview promotion for the Facebook app ''[[The Sims Social]]''. The interview confirms her abduction from ''[[The Sims 2]]''. 'Ask the developer' thread in ''The Sims Social'' forum also stated it.<ref>[http://forum.playfish.com/showthread.php?t=2826789/ The Sims Social "Ask a developer!" Questions Answered! - Playfish/EA Community]</ref> Bella had in fact mysteriously reappeared in [[Littlehaven]], a new city where Bella lived, set after ''The Sims 2'' and Strangetown events, and it was her helpful neighbor Buddy who had found her. It appeared she had absolutely no memory of what had happened to her since the night of her abduction—a whole chunk of her life was missing. As friends and family told her of how she had disappeared, Bella was determined to get answers and set off in search of the UFOs—and her memories, in which she was good at it, too. Bella uncovered and met many aliens, mastering detective skills that Foxy Boulder would have been proud of. But alas, though she had successfully interviewed many aliens, they were not the ones who had abducted her. Each visitor pointed to another, and Bella followed the leads for many months.
Eventually, after becoming exhausted following rumors and gossip, she settled for hypnotherapy in order to rediscover the hidden mysteries of her mind. Apart from uncovering numerous past life experiences, Bella did manage to recover her memories of the abduction. Pleased with the success of the therapy, she diligently wrote down in her journal for safekeeping—should she be abducted again and be made to forget. She plans to publish her notes someday, though she hasn't announced any dates.
Bella may secretly hope to meet her UFOs acquaintances someday, but has since made peace with the fact that she's made lots of new friends in Littlehaven.
She likes Chinese food (especially sweet and sour), would like to be a Fashion Buyer or a Mystery Customer for luxury spa resorts, and would like to visit [[Champs Les Sims|The Eiffel Tower]] and The Taj Mahal. Her personality is socialite, and her career is chef. In the game, she is the tutorial Sim and the first neighbor the players' Sim meets. She is single and lives alone. She wears her signature red dress, red shoes, long black hair and has tan skin. The limit relationship with Bella is friendship; the player cannot become good friends or best friends with her nor fall in love or go steady with her. However, the player can perform romantic interactions with her.
===Life leading up to The Sims Mobile===
In ''[[The Sims Mobile]]'', Bella appears in this game to help the player to perform various tasks as part of the tutorial. It is possible to build a relationship with her. After the tutorial, she is just a normal townie. She also has her natural black hair.

===Life leading up to The Sims 4===
Prior to the game's release, Bella appeared in a number of promotional materials, beginning with an [[Easter Egg]] in the first official trailer. She and Mortimer were later included as renders and in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZmtGfTj-to ''The Sims 4'': Create A Sim Official Gameplay trailer], looking slightly different than in the final release.
In the game, Bella lives in [[Willow Creek]] in the [[Ophelia Villa]] with her husband, Mortimer, and their two children, Cassandra and Alexander. This version of Bella Goth has been officially confirmed as existing in an alternate timeline to those seen in previous installments of the series.
''The Sims 4'' version of Bella is a young adult, 24 days away from becoming an adult. She has the Party Animal aspiration and works in the [[secret agent]] career as an intelligence researcher, and has two skill points each in [[charisma]], [[Fitness (skill)|fitness]], and [[programming]]. She is friends with her daughter and son, and sweethearts with Mortimer. She has no relationships outside of her household when first played.
In the trailer, Bella is shown to have three [[Trait (The Sims 4)|traits]], which are romantic, outgoing, and active. She's also shown to have an aspiration of Friend to the World, and a gregarious benefit. This version of her can be downloaded from the gallery, by SimGuruJill. The in-game version of her, however, has slightly different traits and aspiration: She is good, family-oriented and romantic, and has the Party Animal aspiration, but still has the gregarious benefit.
In May 2022, Bella and her family were given an official makeover with new outfits, facial features, and skin tones shortly after the release of patch 129 of the base game. Notable changes to Bella include different hair, eyebrows, and makeup, a different nose preset, a darker and less saturated skin tone, a breast reduction, and a dress without her signature sweetheart neckline for her everyday outfit. The version of Bella and her family that launched with ''The Sims 4'' in 2014 can be downloaded from Maxis' official Gallery page for players who prefer the Goths' pre-patch appearance.
According to some other posts made as marketing for The Sims 4: High School Years on social media, Bella and Mortimer were dating as teenagers, making them high school sweethearts, and they would sneak into each other's houses to be together.

==Reuniting the Goths==
{{Main|Game guide:Reuniting the Goths}}
A few people around the Internet have suggested many ways in order to get the Pleasantview Bella back. One way is to use the [[boolProp testingcheatsenabled]] and spawn the [[Tombstone of Life and Death]] to add Bella to the Goth family. Another is to use the [[inSimenator]] to summon Bella, improve her relationship to Mortimer, and set her as his spouse and resurrect her. However, she has the [[I Am Dead Token]] which will cause her to die. This can be removed using [[Package editor#SimPE|SimPE]].
When using [[boolProp testingcheatsenabled]], Bella will be fine on the lot, but if the player leaves the lot and then return, the game will show her as having a ghost texture. The player will be able to control her for around a minute, and then she will disappear. After this, a message will appear saying 'Bella has died on another lot.'
Befriending the [[Bella Goth (Strangetown)|Bella Goth]] in Strangetown and moving her into a lot and then making her find her own place is a way to play Bella Goth, but only in Strangetown. Moving the lot to the [[Lots and Houses bin]] and then moving her into Pleasantview will cause [[Game guide:Avoiding corruption|problems]] in both neighborhoods.
==In other games==
Her ''Bustin' Out'' biography states: ''Her name in Italian means "beautiful" and it fits her better than her red leather corset. Descended from a long line of occultists, mystics and decadents, she has thrown convention to the wind. Her disdain for the pedestrian and normal is only matched by her sense of ennui and isolation. She distracts herself from this world with a little organ practice and exotic gardenings of the lethal variety.''
Bella Goth is perhaps one of the most well known Sims. She appeared in ''[[The Sims Bustin' Out (console)|The Sims Bustin' Out]]'' along with her husband [[Mortimer Goth|Mortimer]], she was in the TV family in ''[[The Sims 2 (GBA)|The Sims 2]]'' for Game Boy Advance, she appeared in ''[[The Sims 2 (PSP)|The Sims 2]]'' for PlayStation Portable, and she appeared in ''[[Wikipedia:SimCity 4|SimCity 4]]''. According to her quotes in ''[[Wikipedia:SimGolf|SimGolf]]'' (which she made an appearance as the download-able golfer, along with her family), she is very nice, an excellent neighbor, a little vain, compares bad things to Mortimer's foul moods and compares her family members to her shots (such as a Bella shot is too easy, a Mortimer shot is too difficult, and a Cassandra shot is impossible). She was also regularly featured on the cover for ''The Sims'' and its expansions.
==Easter eggs==
{{Main|Easter Eggs}}
There are many Easter eggs involving Bella Goth. Here is a list so far:
===The Sims===
*'''Two Men, A Woman, and One Monkey:''' Bella, along with her husband Mortimer Goth, neighbor [[Bob Newbie]] and a monkey starred in the aforementioned show according to a poster in ''[[The Sims: Superstar]]''. "''In this hilarious and light-hearted TV series, two men, a woman, and one monkey were randomly picked from a pool of contestants to share a house for one month. Follow them through the good times and the hard times as they try to live their lives with their new house-mates.''"
===The Sims 2===
[[File:Bella Squared.jpg|thumb|Bella Squared portrait.]]
*'''Bella Squared:''' Bella Squared is a portrait of Bella Goth that can be hung in a Sims' houses for §1,000.
*'''Marketing Print by Seph Eia:''' If the player has the highest graphic quality set (allowing them to see portraits clearly), they will see that the last two portraits in the marketing print are of Bella Goth.
*'''Pianist:''' On SimStation Dance, some people say the pianist in the R&B song music video is Bella Goth. This woman has the same skin tone and hairstyle as Bella, but her facial structure is different, she wears glasses, and her dress is a red version of [[Marisa Bendett (Pleasantview)|Marisa Bendett]]'s dress.
*'''Milk:''' A "missing persons" photo of Bella Goth can be seen on the milk carton when Sims make cereal in ''The Sims 2''. In ''The Sims 3'', this is the [[Tragic Clown]].
*'''Hot Air Balloon:''' A little graphic that looks a lot like Bella Goth can be seen inside of the hot air balloon's basket with DreamBoat. Some people say that the Sims in question are Don and Blonde Bombshell.
*'''Belladonna Cove Statue:''' Easily the most conspicuous Easter egg, there is a very tall, golden statue of Bella holding a platinum plumbbob that ships with the ''[[The Sims 2: Apartment Life]]'' expansion pack.
*'''Broken Bella and Mortimer snow globe:''' One of the many hidden files found and posted on [http://linna.modthesims.info/download.php?t=121353 ModTheSims].[[File:Broken snow.jpg|thumb|The broken Bella & Mortimer snow globe.]]
*'''Fireplace:''' In the [[Goth family]] album, there is a picture of Cassandra and a modern looking fireplace. In another picture, the player can see Don kissing Cassandra, but the fireplace is changed to the most expensive one. Looking at the textures of the modern looking fireplace, there is a picture of Bella.
*'''Music:''' There is a song under the Jazz section on the radio titled "[[:File:Ts2 Good Evening Bella.ogg|Good Evening Bella]]".
*'''Photograph''': When blackmailing another Sim, there is a very pixelated image of a figure wearing a red corset.
*'''Old Age''': When a Sim dies of old age, a [[Hula Zombie]] will appear with the [[Grim Reaper]]. It looks like Bella Goth.
*'''Bella Squared Record: '''If you look at the DJ booth, on the left-hand side where there are a stack of records arranged horizontally in a cage, rearrange the camera so it is looking at the one facing out from the booth, it will be a picture of the Bella Squared painting.
*'''Prestidigitator:''' In the [[entertainment]] career track, the 10th level job's description says something about making Bella appear in smoke.
*'''Game Designer''': In the [[gamer]] career at level 10, the [[chance card]] refers to designing a game in which a couple is to be broken up. The choices are between having one member be abducted by aliens, or thinking of something else. If the player chooses the first option and gets a positive outcome, the text alludes to the Bella-was-abducted storyline, and the commercial success of ''The Sims 2''.
*Also in ''[[The Sims 2 Castaway]]'' for Nintendo DS, if the player builds the best house it will say "Only the Bella Goths of the island live here"
*'''Fridge''': There is a fridge in ''[[The Sims 2 (PSP)]]'' that is called The Chow Bella Fridge (although this can also be a reference to the Italian phrase "Ciao Bella"). There's also a [[Refrigerator#The Sims 2 (console)|fridge]] in ''[[The Sims 2 (console)]]'' that is called Chow Bella Bachelor Fridge.
*'''Custom Painting''': When player paints a custom painting, there are premade paintings of Bella Goth and the Goth Manor shipped with ''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime]]''. These premade paintings have ideal size for Architecture Drafting Table.
{{Tombld}}
===The Sims 3===
*'''Cover:''' Bella appears on the cover of ''The Sims 3''.
*'''Book:''' A book called "Where's Bella?" in the Sim's bookcase. A common theory is that this is The Sims equivalent of "Where's Waldo?" (or, in the UK, "Where's Wally?") There is also a book titled "Murder in Pleasantview" by Alexander Goth (though it could not be the as-yet-unborn [[Alexander Goth|Alexander]] from ''The Sims 2 ''unless time travel is involved), which could hint at an explanation of Bella's disappearance between ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims 2'', given that [[alien abduction]] is not present in ''The Sims 3'' base game.
*'''Collectibles:''' Sims can collect space rocks called "Unusual Bellacite" after analyzing them.
*'''Bookcase:''' There is a picture on the bookcase of what appears to be Bella from ''The Sims 2''.
*'''Already Retro CD Display Shelving:''' On top of the CD display shelves, there is a movie with a picture of Bella from The Sims 1.
[[File:Already_retro_bella.jpg|thumb|Bella on The CD display Shelf]]
*'''Donation:''' If a Sim has the Good trait, one of the charities they can donate to is Bella Beneficiary.
*'''Private Investigator: '''If a Sim is snooping for clues, they will remark, "This reminds me of when Bella went missing... I need to keep looking." However, since the game is set 50 years before the adult Bella disappeared, this makes little sense unless it's a reference to "Where's Bella?"
*'''Sketch:''' When a Sim is sketching at the drafting table, they can sketch a black-and-white picture of Bella from The Sims 2, in her signature gown.
*'''[[:File:Painting small 4-5.png|Painting]]:''' When a Sim paints a small painting, one possible picture they can create is of Bella, wearing her signature red dress and with her back turned, near Cassandra, who is in the white shirt and blue pants she wears in ''The Sims''. They appear to be among gravestones (which makes sense for the Goth family), although it is hard to be sure because the picture is painted and texturized. A large painting, which is the one above Mortimer's bed in ''The Sims 2'', can also be painted.
