Elizabeth Van Dell is a tritagonist in the fan-made series, ShatteredBoy. She is the single-mother of the protagonist, Liam Van Dell.

Backstory (Biography)
Elizabeth is a native to Belladonna Cove, sole daughter of celebrity chefs Theodore and Anita Van Dell. She attended Belladonna Elementary, Middle, and High School, excelling in math, science, and (following in her parents' footsteps) culinary arts. In  her freshman year high school, she met a young girl named Beverly Marino and the two became fast friends and were at each other's side all the way through high school and college. Elizabeth graduated from Bales University with Honors, getting her Bacholor's degree in Culinary Arts. During her final years at the university, she met a young man named Ryan Wickham whom she would later go on to persue a long term relationship and have a child with. She and Wickham planned to marry after the birth of their son Liam, but with money being an issue, that did not happen. For 17 years, the family, though quiet, was in complete disarray. Wickham, with all the stress of having a child, took up drinking, leading the family to dissolve. Elizabeth and Ryan got into an arguement which ultimately left them "going to bed angry" and when Elizabeth woke up in the morning, Ryan had vanished. He left a note claiming he couldnt handle his life and decided to go away not revealing when he would return. Distraught, Elizabeth single-handedly packed all of her and Liams belongings and when Liam returned home from school, the two left Riverview and moved back to Belladonna Cove. She landed a beautiful house on the beach and went back to school to obtain her Master's degree in culinary arts. She made a vow that no matter what, everything she did was for the good of her son.

Personality
Elizabeth is a kind a lovable mother, but her personality can range in the most oddest of ways. When she is happy, she acts rather goofy and borderline eccentric. When sad, she is quiet and does her various activities/duties with little words spoken. When angry, she doesnt raise her voice, she just calmly (but forcefully) says something that will get to that person and remove herself from the situation, leaving the person to think. She is a very wise woman and with her recent unfortunate events, she has become a very strong person. She is witty and is not afraid to stand up to a person, including total strangers. She is very devoted to her son after the abandonment and makes it her goal that Liam maintains true happiness without Ryan.

Elizabeth is a middle-aged woman who, like the other prominant in the series (Beverly, Tammy, Georgia, Elizabeth Thatcher, MaryAnn, etc) have aged well.
