Most 3D modelers allow you to animate the models that you make.

Alternatively, you could do it in DB manually.

Hope I Helped...

If you opt to do it manually, I would model a torus ( a ring shaped object ) in your prefered modeler, then load it into DB, and position it somewhere out of the way and hide it untill it's needed.

Then, when it's needed, position it at the character's feet, and do your stuff.

To move it up, just incriment the Y position of the torus unitll it reaches the desired height, then hide it and move it away somewhere.

Hopefully that helped a bit more
Jess.
