- "Someday, if I ever find another man, I want you to look inside his head and tell me everything that's in there."
- ―Arlene to Sookie[src]
Arlene Fowler Bellefleur is a major character in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth seasons of True Blood. She is played by starring cast member Carrie Preston. She is now the current owner of Bellefluer's and friend to Sookie Stackhouse. Married 5 times, she has 3 children, Coby, Lisa and Mikey.
As of season 4, she is married to Terry Bellefleur ("She's Not There") and has taken his surname as her married name ("Me and the Devil").
Although it has never been addressed directly, Arlene seems to be a medium, albeit one of far less power than Lafayette Reynolds. She was able to see the ghosts of Rene, Mavis and Zaafira. If she is a medium, even one of lesser power, this would explain Mikey's mediumship.
Personality
Arlene is a sassy Southern woman who sees herself as spunky; she says what she wants, sometimes disregarding others' feelings. Arlene is a fair-weather friend. Sookie finds herself working Arlene's shifts when she needs to leave early and takes care of her kids while she is at dates. Still, a lot of her flightiness at work is due to how much she worries about her children, and it is apparent time and time again that they are her whole world.
Arlene also proves to be a caring and loving individual. She is fiercely protective of her children, refusing to leave her burning house until she found them. While she has a good heart, she is often apt to resort to bigotry (directed at vampires) and openly disapproves of Sookie's relationship with Bill. Arlene often makes remarks that have distinctly racist undertones though this often appears to be unintentional. Despite her flaws, it is clear that she's capable of deep love and devotion, as seen in her relationships with Terry Bellefleur and her children.
Biography
Powers & Abilities
Arlene is a psychic medium. She has the ability to see the spirits of the deceased. As shown, when she was able to see the ghost of her deceased love Rene. Also, she was able to see the ghost of Mavis an African Woman after Mikey because she felt as if Mikey was her own son who was killed.
Her mediumship explains why Mikey can see ghost. Most likely, passed on to him by his mother.
The current extent of her powers are not fully shown. It is not known yet if she is a natural born Wiccan or not.
