Bella Swan
Bella Swan
Name: Bella Swan

Type: Human-later Vampire

Special Ability: Shields herself and others from mental attacks

About Them: Isabella "Bella" Marie Swan, later Isabella Marie Cullen, is an average, clumsy, accident-prone girl who moves from Phoenix, Arizona, to Forks, Washington, to live with her father, Charlie. Though many boys are attracted to her when she arrives, she falls in love with Edward Cullen, a mysterious boy she discovers to be a vampire. Desperate not to lose him, Bella vows to stay with Edward, even if it means turning into a vampire herself, despite Edward's wishes. In an effort to keep her safe, he leaves the town of Forks. Jacob Black, a werewolf from the Quileute tribe and the son of Bella's father's best friend, comforts her in that time and Bella falls in love with him as well.

Bella is described as an understanding, caring, serious, shy, and intelligent person, with a very dry sense of humor, and is noted for being very clumsy, and also stubborn. She has a very private mind, which is thought to be why Edward is unable to see her thoughts, and she is determined to become a vampire. She is also said to be terrible at lying, but occasionally demonstrates good acting ability. Bella becomes faint at the smell of blood, though this does not bother her once she becomes a vampire — this trait may also be the reason why Bella does not hunger for blood as strongly as most newborn vampires.

After Bella is changed into a vampire by Edward Cullen in Breaking Dawn, she becomes very beautiful-her already pale skin becoming even whiter, her hair becoming darker, and her lips becoming fuller. After her transformation she has the ability to shield her and others' minds from mental attacks. With her newfound ability, it is also discovered that Bella is incredibly self-controlled, much to the astonishment of the whole Cullen family-mostly Jasper. Bella learns to remove the shield from her own mind with the help of Kate, another vampire, and surprises Edward one night with all of her thoughts he has always missed out on.

Bella is described in the novels as being pale-skinned with brown hair and eyes, and a heart shaped face. Beyond this, a detailed description of her appearance is never given in the series. Stephenie Meyer explains that she "left out a detailed description of Bella in the book so that the reader could more easily step into her shoes." While Meyer stresses that "Bella's looks are open to interpretation", she does supply her own personal interpretation on her website, describing Bella as: "very fair-skinned, with long, straight, dark brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. Her face is heart-shaped—a wide forehead with a widow's peak, large, wide-spaced eyes, prominent cheekbones, and then a thin nose and a narrow jaw with a pointed chin. Her lips are a little out of proportion, a bit too full for her jaw line. Her eyebrows are darker than her hair and more straight than they are arched. She's five foot four inches tall, slender but not at all muscular, and weighs about 115 pounds. She has stubby fingernails because she has a nervous habit of biting them." Stephenie Meyer has stated that Bella's "tragic flaw" in Eclipse is her lack of self-knowledge. After being turned into a vampire, she describes having a more clear view of the world.

Their Early History: Due to being human, there is no past for Bella Swan. Only the future lies ahead of her.

Edward Cullen by Robert Pattinson
Edward Anthony Masen Cullen, born in Chicago, Illinois June 20, 1901.

His adoptive father, Carlisle Cullen, transformed him into a vampire in 1918 to prevent him from dying of Spanish influenza during epidemic in Chicago, Illinois. Carlisle instilled in him a sense of morality uncommon in most vampires, and central to his way of life is the refusal to consider humans as food.

Edward meets Bella Swan in 2003, a human girl whose thoughts he is unable to read, and whose blood smells overwhelmingly sweet to him. He fights a growing attraction to her, but after saving her life on several occasions,...

She looked like the pictures, except her hair was shorter now. She looked more like me now that her hair is shorter. But the man next to her..

He looked nice, but I didn't like men. I didn't grow up around them. I was scared of them ,unless I got used to them. Which never happened. Even with my creator, Maria, who had men at her fingertips, I was still scared. They could do you some harm if they wanted to. And they were stronger than me.

I walked along with the group, comming back to the present. I wasn't scared of human men, they couldn't hurt me, vampires though, could. Some of the group almost...

The next morning, Maria woke early and staggered into the bathroom. She leaned heavily on the sink and peered into the mirror. Her eyes were sunken and heavy with sleep, her hair a tangled mess atop her head. She attacked it with a brush and splashed water on her face, attempting to wake herself up fully, still shuddering from her nightmares. This proved to be an impossible task and so with a resigned sigh she left the bathroom. It didn’t matter about her hair. She’d looked worse.
She dressed quickly, flung her bag on her back and proceeded to leave. At the door she paused, chewing her lip....

Why is Rosalie so unpopular in the Twilight fandom?

She seems anything but a Mary Sue, and believe me when I say that. She's vain, shallow, and kind of hostile towards Bella at first. She's not perfect. She's no Disney princess who sings to chipmunks and has little animal friends who cater to her every whim. She has a temper that puts a lion with a bad case of PMS to shame on that count.

Remember that the way she acted to Bella was only because she felt threatened. She thought Bella was going to reveal their secret. That just shows that she cares about the safety of her family, right?

Can you imagine being shown up by someone clearly inferior to you? That might sting.

Rosalie really isn't that bad. Just that after reading a few hundred pages of limited insight about Rosalie, when all of a sudden she goes all soft, the damage done might not be reversible.

So please hear me when I say that Rosalie isn't such a horrible character. She really isn't.

Sawyer's POV 14??
I remember going by this house one time in Fork Washington. People like me lived there, there was a human that lived with them, she was quiet beauiful. I went to there house, I needed a place to stay and a family. The Volturi was at the Cullen house, I don't know why. I didn't like being around the Volturi, I have to admit they sort of scare me. I don't know how to describe this family besides they all belong together. Carisle was letting me stay here, if I could obeyed the rules. 1. No drinking human blood, animal blood only that was something I could live with. Zoey was a...

Just 15 minutes! How can I clear all of my questions in just 15 minutes!?!?! I groaned. Angela knows the school better than I do. Then I had an idea.
"Angela?" I asked.
"Yeah?" she asked.
"Is there a library here?"
"Of course there is. All colleges have a library. Follow me." she said, and we quickened our walking speed, almost running.
"The library is through these doors." Angela said while pointing to the double doors.
As we went in, there were at least 200 shelves of books. I looked around. I would definetely spend most my time in here in the future.

"So what exactly are we looking for?"...

Chapter 5- Refuge

The next morning I woke up, unaware of where I was and not knowing what I was doing there. All I knew was I was sore everywhere and I had a splitting headache. I sat there for what seemed like hours in pure agony, when everything came rushing back. It had been Charles... again.

As soon as I could gather the strength to stand I changed clothes, wrapped a scarf around my head and headed to the home of the only person I felt I could trust, that was in the area anyway.

“Esie? Is that you?” Tom asked as he opened the door and took in my probably horrific appearance.

I nodded....

Maria, tired of tripping over the same entanglement of brambles every single time she walked through the front gate, reached down and forcefully ripped the twisted plant from the soil. It came loose reluctantly and left Maria with numerous cuts and scratches on her palm. She wasn’t worried- she was used to that kind of thing.
Brushing her hands, Maria made her way up the path and opened the peeling front door.
“Grandma?” she called. There was no answer. It was likely that her grandmother was working in the garden. Maria wondered if it was something all old people did. Her grandmother, certainly,...

Is Rob Pattinson's off-camera romance with Kristen Stewart again being quashed by the Twilight studio suits at Summit?
First, there's no doubt the New Moon crew stole the Comic-Con show yesterday. Despite even Johnny Depp making a surprise appearance, he was still no match for R.Pattz and his awkward charm, not to mention the sexy Brit's real-life romantic interest, K.Stew.
There was some unexplained tension going on between Robsten yesterday, since the real-life...

Addi’s POV

Me and Renesme were having fun at scrabble she was so smart it was
amazing. Luckily Edward and Bella walked through the door and that
ended our game. Although Renesme said "she wasn't going to let me forget
that she beat me at scrabble". Bella told me that "Esme and Carlisle
would like to see me at the house" so I told "Renesme that I would be
back later to play with her some more".

When I reached the house Carlisle and Esme were waiting for me in the
living I was scared that they were going to tell me that something was
wrong or that I was going to have to leave. Carlisle started...

THIS IS NOT THE STORY!!!
I'm currently suffering writers' block. I am open to any ideas.
I was bored the entire week, so I came up with a few chapters, but I promised an explanation in the next chapter, which I didn't have. I may have to skip a few chapters...

I also want to use this as a thank-you to all of my fans and people who I'm a fan of and loved my stories, which is a great boost for my eagerness to write. (Sounds cheesie, I know...)

For those who recently supported -and, frankly, pleaded until I had a headache- my writing of Renesmee Black's Story:

princesspinkla; thanks for your support,...

Ok don't get me wrong I love the Cullens but take a look at what I would do if I was a Cullen


I would hot wire Edwards car and take it for a joy ride

I would go into my life story when ever I'm board

I would never sleep so I would jump all over

I use the saying "oh bite me" alot and I don't normaily get into fights but this is the Cullens we'r talking about

Sometimes I say my thoughts out-loud

I would think about Jakes body

I would be mad that I'm young and no guy would want to date a girl like me

I'd copy Edward

I'd piss off Edward

^^If I did I'd say Bella did it^^

I might crack up when he trys to hold his anger

I would jump off a big tree a yell "I belive I can fly"

And most of all I'm Crazy

So tell me if I should be a Cullen
What is your typical day like on the set of New Moon, the sequel to Twilight?

New Moon was a very relaxed film to work on and it all starts with how easy going director Chris Wietz is. That vibe rolls down to the crew and actors. It makes it so easy when we've all worked together before. Everything was so well organized, making it easy for the actors to do our job. We had more time to just laugh and make jokes and hang out; it's important to have a cast that gels the way we do and you'll see that more in the second film.

The entire cast of Twilight and New Moon has gone from Hollywood new faces...
