Ysabell is a fictional character in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. She is the adopted daughter of Death, who saved her as a baby when her parents were killed in the Great Nef desert (no explanation has been given as to why he did this).
When first encountered in the Discworld books, she is a sixteen-year-old girl with silver hair and silver eyes who, it transpires, has been sixteen for around thirty years (no time passes in Death's Domain). When Mort first encountered Ysabell, he was given the impression of "too many chocolates". She also has a fixation for the colour pink.
Ysabell has also met Rincewind, and was surprised to learn that he was not actually dead. This situation may not have lasted very long if The Luggage had not intervened.
During the events of Mort it became clear that Ysabell was competent in carrying out the work of her father including The Duty and doing the nodes. Before Mort arrived she shared her home with Albert, Death's manservant.
Ysabell later married Mort, and together they became the Duke and Duchess of Sto Helit, and parents of Susan.
Ysabell appears in the following Discworld books:
