Bellamy Blake

Bellamy Blake is a main character in the first and second seasons. He is portrayed by starring cast member Bob Morley, and debuts in the series premiere.

Bellamy is co-leader of The 100 alongside Clarke. He is not part of the original 100 and posed as a guard to sneak onto the dropship for his sister, Octavia.

At first Bellamy led the 100 by himself, but quickly accepted Clarke as the co-leader after the death of Wells and Charlotte. He has aided the 100, keeping them alive and facing problems inside and outside of the camp. Despite the fact that he's a good leader, Bellamy struggles with himself and others.

As a leader, Bellamy does his best to keep the 100 alive. He is willing to make difficult decisions to ensure the survival of his people, especially with the threat that the Grounders pose.

Early Life
It's revealed in a flashback that Bellamy watched his mother give birth to Octavia and even helped keep her quiet after the birth. He had learned about the Roman emperor, Augustus and named his sister after the emperor's sister, Octavia. Bellamy has a strong sense of responsibility for his sister. He loves her very much and promises to keep her safe, no matter what may happen.

During a flashback, it's revealed that his mother was a seamstress and sleeping with a guardsman in order to keep ahead of the surprise inspections. She gets Bellamy a spot on the guard, and he begins training as a cadet.

One day, Bellamy is able to get guard duty during the masquerade party. He promises his sister Octavia that he'll keep her safe and deliver her home before their mother even knows they're gone. Ultimately, this plan fails and Octavia is discovered. Bellamy suddenly loses his sister, his mother, and his chance to be a guard and becomes a janitor. Bellamy harbors a deep resentment for the council due to their decision to float his mother. The man who ratted out his sister's existence, Commander Shumway, says Bellamy can go to Earth and protect Octavia, but only if he shoots and kills the Chancellor. Bellamy accepts the deal and stows away on the dropship.

Physical Appearance
Bellamy has thick dark brown hair and brown eyes. He has a light dusting of freckles (which seemed to be a bit bolder when he was young), along with olive skin, and appears to be in his late teens or early twenties. He has a lean, muscular build and appears to be physically strong. He is considered physically attractive.

Personality
Bellamy takes charge of the group as soon as they reach Earth. He has been protective of his little sister Octavia Blake since childhood and wants the best for her. He's rather secretive when it comes to how he got on the Dropship; although this information is revealed in Twilight's Last Gleaming and His Sister's Keeper. It is also made known that he fears death, due to his crimes committed on the Ark. He speaks his mind and is very aggressive towards others, going as far as to torture Lincoln for information in Contents Under Pressure. Although he can be aggressive, he has a softer side as well, but has a difficult time expressing it (as shown in the episode Earth Kills).

Aurora Blake
Aurora was Bellamy's mother. Bellamy seemed to have a very close relationship with his mother when he was young. On occasion Aurora would have Bellamy recite why he could never tell anybody about his mother's second pregnancy. Bellamy was present when his mother gave birth to her second child and was allowed to name his sister. As Bellamy grew older, his relationship with his mother became strained. This may have been due to her prostitution, which Bellamy often voiced his disapproval of. Twenty two years after his birth, his mother was floated when Octavia was discovered. Aurora's death greatly affected Bellamy. While on Earth, Bellamy blamed Octavia for Aurora's death. It was later mentioned that Bellamy didn't mean it.

Octavia Blake
Octavia is Bellamy's younger sister and the two have a mixed relationship. In Pilot, Bellamy goes down to Earth with Octavia to protect her. In Earth Skills, he tells her to remain at camp as they search for Jasper and orders that nobody touch her. Atom does and Bellamy punishes him by hanging him on a tree. Octavia scolds Bellamy for this. In Earth Kills, Bellamy lets her stay at camp and when Murphy calls her psychotic, he gets angry with him. In Murphy's Law, Bellamy is confronted by Clarke, Finn and Raven due to his poor decisions, Clarke yells at Bellamy and says he only does what he does for his sister. In His Sister's Keeper, Bellamy forms a search party to look for Octavia after she is declared missing and when he finds her, embraces her. However, she yells at him for being controlling and blames him for the death of his mother, Aurora. By Contents Under Pressure, the two have started to become almost enemies, especially after Bellamy tortures Lincoln, the Grounder who saved Octavia in His Sister's Keeper. As of Day Trip Bellamy has begun to make strides to mend the relationship with his sister.

Clarke Griffin
Clarke and Bellamy tend to clash often; both of them have different ideas on how the Delinquents should be led. However, it seems that the two are developing a mutual respect for each other, even as they continue to be at odds with one another. Clarke is able to communicate with Bellamy most of the time, and can sometimes bring out a better side of him. Bellamy respects Clarke, and as the two leaders, they understand each other more than the other Delinquents, as displayed in Contents Under Pressure. He respects her opinion too, asking for permission before torturing Lincoln. Despite the fact that they disagree most of the time, they respect each other's opinions, and there may be a mutual love interest between the two. As of Day Trip Bellamy and Clarke start becoming friends, especially after they save each other's lives. Clarke also tells Bellamy that the main reason why the group has survived is because of him, and he can't abandon them for fear of Chancellor Jaha and the Ark's wrath, and so she speaks in Bellamy's favor during his talk with Jaha.

As time passes, the two grow close to each other as they respect and rely on each other's decisions. In the finale, when Clarke decides that the camp should evacuate; Bellamy reluctantly agrees which would have been an impossible act at the beginning of Season 1. However, due to events they return back to camp and fight off the grounders. When Bellamy is face to face with Christian; Clarke is utterly distraught as she fears for Bellamy's life. After Clarke closes the hanger door and launches the dropship, she presumes that Bellamy is dead by the ring of fire and is attacked with grief and sorrow.

In Mount Weather, Clarke constantly tries to unveil the hidden secrets. It is evident that she is a strong leader and is still willing to lead her people in the right direction. Although, Bellamy and Clarke are separated for the first 4 episodes, many parallels are seen between the two. The pair reunite in episode 5, with Clark running to him and hugging him.He at first doesn't respond, but when does he returns the hug with as much ferocity as Clarke and the two linger for quite a long time. Later on in the episode he also stares at her with an intense gaze while she is sleeping suggesting more to come in their relationship.

Wells Jaha
Bellamy already bears resentment towards Wells' father, Chancellor Jaha, before Pilot, causing him and Wells to quickly become enemies. However he does not wish for Wells to die, and seeks punishment for the one who killed him, until it is discovered to have been Charlotte.

Atom
Atom and Bellamy have a relationship that is similar to a soldier and general, with Atom taking commands and obeying Bellamy. It eventually becomes strained when he is caught kissing Octavia, Bellamy's sister. This causes Bellamy to distrust him and punish him for the incident by hanging him from a tree. When he discovers that Atom is dying, he is shown to be visibly upset, suggesting that he still does care for him. He is unable to kill his friend, and Clarke has to eventually euthanize Atom in order to end his pain.

John Murphy
In spite of Murphy's abrasive personality, Bellamy befriends him soon after they arrive on Earth. Although Murphy seems keen on doing as he pleases, he holds a certain respect towards Bellamy and briefly takes a right-hand-man kind of stance around him. However, their relationship sours when Murphy is falsely accused of killing Wells; the fallout eventually resulting in Charlotte's death and Murphy's banishment from the group. When he returns, Bellamy is reluctant to let his stay, but ultimately gives him a second chance. Murphy however betrays him, causing their relationship to be even more strained. When Murphy returns in season 2, Bellamy is infuriated to see he has the guts to show his face. However as time goes on, Murphy managed to prove himself to Bellamy that he is willing to join the group again when he held onto the the rope for Bellamy when he climbed down to save Mel. Bellamy appears to trust him once again, so much that he even gave him a gun.

Raven Reyes
Raven and Bellamy have a rough relationship. Their first encounter is in Twilight's Last Gleaming, when Bellamy is the first to find Raven and her pod. Bellamy steals Raven's radio, the only way to communicate with the Ark, and throws it into a river, and later says he wishes he had killed her. In order to move on after her breakup with Finn, Raven slips inside Bellamy's tent in The Calm and sleeps with him, though he is reluctant at first. She then admits it didn't help. As of We Are Grounders (Part 1), their relationship has returned to normal.
