== Personality ==
== Personality ==
Belladona is confident, bossy and aggressive. Although she is a mother, she isn’t very parenting, possibly because the only reason she had Sundew was to have more LeafSpeaking dragons in the tribe. Belladonna is surprisingly understanding, as shown when Blue didn’t want to use his flame silk to burn down any more Hives, she gave ‘an almost pitying face’.[54] She is proud and impatient and will act upon many things, even when Queen Sequoia forbids her to.  Belladonna is a very fearsome dragon, often choosing more deadly beetles and insects to put in her leaf-pouches.

She would do almost anything to get revenge. Belladonna often chooses deadlier beetles and insects to put in her leaf-pouches. She is sometimes controlling of Sundew, going so far as taking her friends prisoner, whom she does not even care about.

While planning out how to invade [[Wasp Hive]], [[Blue]] and his team get captured by three LeafWings: Sundew, Hemlock, and Belladonna. Belladonna forces Blue to tell her who they are, and what they are doing here. After Blue confesses, Belladonna introduces herself and her family to him. When Blue tells them that he and [[Swordtail]] are fugitives, although [[Cricket]] is somewhat innocent, Belladonna becomes intrigued and begins to trace out a plan. Blue also tells them that they were there to rescue [[Luna]], his stolen [[Hybrids and Special Dragons|flamesilk]] sister, which makes all three LeafWings come up with a plan. Belladonna tells Blue that they know where [[The Flamesilk Factory]] is, and will rescue Luna if Blue and Cricket will help them steal the [[Book of Clearsight]]. Cricket refuses, and Belladonna rushes over and seizes her jaw, growling at her that she has no right to refuse after everything her tribe has done to the LeafWings. Then Belladonna, Hemlock, and Sundew pretend to rush off into the foliage, leaving Blue, Cricket, and Swordtail to decide whether or not to take their offer, although secretly the LeafWings hide in the nearby trees and eavesdrop on their conversation. Eventually, the decision is made, and Blue, Cricket, and Sundew head off to steal the Book.

"Trying to keep secrets won't do any good at this point. [...] I only see two ways for this to end: with you all helping us, or dead. In the former case, it'll be much easier if we know your names. Or we could skip to the latter case right now."
— Belladonna to Blue, Swordtail, and Cricket upon first meeting them, The Lost Continent

Belladonna is an adult female LeafWing who was introduced in The Lost Continent. She was the commander of the PoisonWings and formerly under the control of the othermind. She is the daughter of Linden, mother of Sundew, the partner of Hemlock, and currently resides on Pantala dealing with HiveWings who are still loyal to Wasp. She has the ability of leafspeak.

Description

Belladonna has dark green scales[1] of a lighter shade than Sundew's that are dotted with patches of brown.[2] She has sharp green eyes[3] and strange pale burn scars splattered across her talons and her forearms.[2] She is much taller than Sundew and has an air of authority about her. She wears several small pouches that are woven from long grass or fashioned from leaves.[2]

Personality

Belladonna is commanding, fierce, confident, stubborn, and aggressive. Belladonna is sometimes shown to be surprisingly understanding, but in a veiled, vague way.[4] She is proud and impatient and will act upon many things, even when Sequoia forbids her to. She would do almost anything to get revenge. Belladonna often chooses deadlier beetles and insects to put in her leaf-pouches. She is sometimes controlling of Sundew, going so far as taking her friends prisoner, whom she does not even care about. She also has a tendency to exaggerate, especially when it comes to grand plans against Queen Wasp.[5]

Biography

The Lost Continent Prophecy

The Lost Continent

While planning out how to invade Wasp Hive, Blue and his friends got captured by three LeafWings: Sundew, Hemlock, and Belladonna. Belladonna forced Blue to tell her who they were, and what they were doing here. After Blue confessed, Belladonna introduced herself and her family to him. When Blue told them that he and Swordtail were fugitives, although Cricket was somewhat innocent, Belladonna became intrigued and began to trace out a plan. Blue also told them that they were there to rescue Luna, his stolen flamesilk sister, which made all three LeafWings come up with a plan. Belladonna told Blue that they knew where the flamesilk factory was and would rescue Luna if Blue and Cricket would help them steal the Book of Clearsight. Cricket refused, and Belladonna rushed over and seized her jaw, growling at her that she had no right to refuse after everything her tribe had done to the LeafWings. Then Belladonna, Hemlock, and Sundew pretended to rush off into the foliage, leaving Blue, Cricket, and Swordtail to decide whether or not to take their offer, although they secretly hid in the nearby trees and eavesdropped on their conversation. Eventually, the decision was made, and Blue, Cricket, and Sundew headed off to steal the Book.

Later, Sundew mentioned that her parents were still mad at her for revealing the secret LeafWing tunnels, even though it was already decided that the LeafWings could not use them.
The Hive Queen
Belladonna and Hemlock were frequently mentioned to be working with their LeafWing tribe on a secret LeafWing attack plan, which turned out to be the Burning of Bloodworm Hive. Sundew took a piece of Blue's flamesilk to give her parents for the Burning of Bloodworm Hive.
The Poison Jungle

Belladonna appeared after Sundew arrived at the PoisonWing village, furious for bringing Cricket and Bumblebee, the "enemies," in. She then started arguing with Sundew as she explained everything she had done while she was gone. After Sundew had left the village to secretly see Willow, she was summoned by Queen Sequoia to fight against Queen Wasp's forces. Belladonna was furious, arguing with both Sundew and the Sequoia. She forced Sundew to take Mandrake and Nettle with her to the Eye of the jungle.

Belladonna, Sequoia, and many PoisonWings, went to the edge of the jungle for a battle against the HiveWing army, but instead fell under the othermind's control.
The Dangerous Gift
Belladonna was briefly mentioned by Swordtail when he remembered how the breath of evil infected the LeafWings. She was mentioned again when Bryony and Hemlock discussed what was happening as they hid with all the SilkWings from Bloodworm Hive near the abyss. During Sundew and Cobra Lily's argument, Sundew snarls that despite how awful dragons like Belladonna and Nettle were, she still wanted to save them from the othermind.
The Flames of Hope
Cottonmouth, who was possessing a SilkWing at the time, taunted Sundew with the possibility of seeing Belladonna again. Belladonna was mentioned to have been in the fight against Moonwatcher, Qibli, Sundew, Lynx, Cricket and Bullfrog. After the othermind was defeated, she was mentioned to be dealing with the HiveWings who wanted Wasp back.

A Guide to the Dragon World
Belladonna was mentioned by Sundew in her letter to Starflight regarding the letters she found between Linden, Sequoia, and Belladonna. Belladonna was mentioned multiple times by Linden and Sequoia in their letters. Later, Belladonna became the writer and receiver of letters to and from Sequoia following the death of her mother.

Relationships

Hemlock

While their relationship was just to create another leafspeak dragonet, Belladonna seems to be close to Hemlock and trusts him, as he is seen accompanying Belladonna during their mission to burn down the Hives.

Sequoia

Belladonna is frustrated at Sequoia's refusal to attack the Hives but collaborates with her to defend the remaining LeafWings. Sequoia describes her as 'exhausting and annoying to work with' because of her rebellious nature. Belladonna similarly does not respect Sequoia as queen, refusing to bow down to her.[6]

Sundew

Despite being Sundew's mother, she does not act very maternal, possibly because the only reason she and Hemlock hatched Sundew was to have more stronger leafspeak dragons, in the tribe. Nevertheless, she wants her daughter to make her proud by successfully carrying out plans, and burning down enemies.
