Immortal Everett Bellian went into the British military, where he soon earned a good reputation. Even before his first death, he was a tough but fair commander.

Bellian died in 1901 in Ladysmith, South Africa during the Second Boer War.  He fought in many wars on three continents, and earned the rank of colonel, until in 1983 he officially resigned and married Lydia Adams. It was his first marriage.

MacLeod and Bellian talk

Lydia died in 1989 and Lydia's daughter, Lori Bellian, grew up without her. They lived in France, and he loved her like his own daughter. As Bellian learned in May 1993 that she had been raped, he wanted revenge at any cost. Bellian went to the home country of the diplomat Allan Rothwood and met the Immortal, Duncan MacLeod. He refused to extradite Mark Rothwood easily. Everett Bellian was not willing to rely on courts, he wanted revenge. So he gathered his old fighting force and laid siege to the country house. In the following battle some of Bellian's men died and Allan was seriously injured. Ultimately, MacLeod and Bellian faced off swords in hand. They fought and MacLeod won, but he didn't kill Bellian, realizing the man's actions were driven by love not evil. The matter came to an end, as Lori shot Mark as he was aiming a gun at Bellian. She apparently did not to know that her adoptive father was Immortal.

Bellian is spared by MacLeod

In June 1995 Bellian was still alive in France. He was observed by Thomas Citron, who suspected that Bellian, when Lori was independent, would again join the military.
