Martha Bell

Martha Bell is a character in the first season of The Boy from the Bunker and is portrayed by Alexa Davalos in the books. She is one of the 18 residents of the Bunker which is evacuated by Basilisk, however, she ends up being taken into Blood Riders' clan. Prior to Season 1, Martha was formerly a resident of a Dormir where she was the subject of invasive, medical testing and experiments. After she was liberated from the Dormir, she found refuge in The City of Targo.

Martha is married to Kane Bell who is also a resident of the Bunker. The couple have four children, two of whom they gained after moving into the shelter. Their oldest child is Ares Bell followed by Wynnlow Bell who is 4 years younger than him. Upon moving into the Bunker, her son, Ares, discovered a 2-year-old boy named Quill Alfred Shayman who had been smuggled inside prior to their arrival and was hiding in his bed. Unable to locate his parents or understand what had happened, they agreed to let him stay and Martha and Kane adopted him as their son (now known as Quill Arwyn Bell) after the suggestion was brought up by Ares - who had formed an instant, steadfast bond with him. Several months into their residency in the Bunker, Martha realised that she was pregnant and ended up giving birth to hers and Kane's only daughter. She was the first of what would be four children born inside the Bunker and in an effort to emphasise Quill's belonging in their family, Martha and Kane gave him the responsibility of naming his new sister. He called her Elara. Martha has an adoptive granddaughter named Isobel Kady Zora who belongs to her daughter, Elara, and her son-in-law, Kodiak Zora. She also has three more grandchildren from them who are Ares Zora, Story Zora, and Hope Zora. Aeryn Ives is her daughter-in-law with whom she has two children with Quill: Theo Bell and Veer Bell. Sol Riverly is also her daughter-in-law and from her, she has two grandchildren with Wynn: Eden Riverly Bell and Reign Riverly Bell.
