Rosalie Lillian Cullen

Rosalie Cullen

     Rosalie was a daughter of a banker who lived quite well in a Great Depression. Her parents wanted to be in a higher social circle and wanted to use Rosalie's looks to do so. Rosalie didn't mind though and it made her happy that her parents thought she was pretty. As she grew older her looks increased. Her parents loved to buy her clothes and her friends would envy her. With all the attention it made her self-absorbed and shallow. At eighteen she was considered the prettiest girl in Rochester, and possibly New York. Rosalie envied no one except her friend Vera. Vera had a husband and a baby boy named Henry. Rosalie longed for a husband and a baby of her own. She soon caught the eye of Royce King II, the son of the richest man in Rochester. This is what she wanted. Her parents were thrilled and made wedding plans soon after. One night, a week before the wedding, Rosalie was walking home when she saw Royce and his friends drunk. She never saw him drunk and didn't know of the dark side he held. Soon she was left for dead on the street. Carlisle found her and transformed her. One of the first things she did was to go after Royce and his friends saving Royce for last because she wanted him to suffer. She tortured them one by one, but was repulsed to have their blood in her. Rosalie was still sad to think of her dreams of having a baby were gone. Two years later, while in  Tennessee she found Emmet about to be finished off by a bear. She reminded her of Vera's son for some reason and saved him from the bear. She felt selfish for having him turned but when it was over he didn't see her as selfish and they both fell in love with each other. And marry every ten years or so.

A family friend named Charles Evenson wanted her hand in marriage and to make her father happy married him quickly. After awhile she found that he had two sides. He would physically abuse her and asked her parents for help but said to be a good wife and keep quite. He left to fight in World War one which brought great relieve to her. When he came back in 1919 it was a nightmare. Soon after his return she became pregnant. The baby was her way to leave. She fled to a cousins house until he learned were she was a left. She then went to Ashland, Wisconsin where she pretended to we a war widow. She built a life for her and her unborn baby, which she became to love more than her own life.

Esme was amazed to see Carlisle again and wasn't sure if she was in heaven or hell. Carlisle explained what he had done to save her life. Esme took it better than he had expected.  It had it's challenges to face and sometimes she couldn't resist the human blood.

Carlisle Cullen

Carlisle Cullen

      Carlisle Cullen was born around 1640. During his birth his mother died making his father his only family. He lived in London, England. His father was a crusader against evil. He led hunts trying to find monsters such as werewolves, vampires, and witches. Many innocent people died because of him. When he grew to old the hunts were then in charge of his only son, Carlisle. He was more persistent than his father and found real vampires in the sewers of London. He gathered people help and destroy them. When they emerged Carlisle was attacked and bitten. Knowing that the people of the town would destroy anything poisoned from a vampire, he was quick to hide. He then spent three day in pain but made no noise. When his transformation was over he knew what had happened and hated himself. He tried to kill himself by falling from great heights, drowning himself, and when non of these worked he decided to starve himself. He went to the most remote locations. Then as a herd of elk were passing by he discovered that he didn't need to hunt people, but could survive on animal blood. He spent years and years educating himself when he found he wanted to help people. Then he had to practice over centuries to perfect his control and became a doctor. While studying as a doctor in Italy around the 1700's he was discovered by the Volturi. They were ancient vampires who controlled the vampire world. He spent about ten years with them when he decided to go to America and find vampires like himself. As years went on he became more and more lonely. That is when he had the thought of creating a partner and spent years thinking about it. A woman named Elizabeth Masen begged him to help her son. She said he could only save him. That's when he decided to do it. He watched her dying son sick from the Spanish influenza. When he bit him and his transformation was over he was surprised to find that he could read minds. Over time he added more to his coven. First Esme, then Rosalie, and then finally Emmet. Later two more vampires joined his coven named Alice and Jasper.
