YOUR CHARACTER'S HISTORY:
September 13th 1987, was a day unlike any other for Charlie Swan and his wife Renee. They were at home enjoying a nice day to themselves. Charlie left to go take care of a few errands and it was while he was out and about did his cell phone go off and Renee called to inform him that her water broke. Rushing home quickly, Charlie was able to get Mom to the hospital, but just barely. I entered the world then, with a full head of hair and beautiful brown eyes. Unfortunately life was not going to be blissful for long as while Charlie loved the town, and it’s dreary weather, my mom did not, and wanted to get out. Little fights became big ones and soon their marriage would dwindle until there was nothing left. The two later divorced and Mom took me to Phoenix Arizona, which was the polar opposite of where my father lived, in Forks, Washington. Charlie had loved the weather and he was the chief of police there.
As a small child I took ballet, although I wasn’t very good at it. Eventually I gave it up because I just wasn’t any good at it. During one of these trips to see Charlie, I met Jacob Black, the son of my dad’s friend Billy, and his two older sisters Rebecca and Rachel. Jacob and I built mud pies together. While Rebecca, Rachel and I would play dolls and whatever else the two older girls wanted to do. After a while though, I didn’t want to keep going, much to Charlie’s dismay. If Charlie wanted to visit me, he had to come to Phoenix. We often spoke on the phone though, to keep in some form of contact. Especially since he didn't come to Phoenix often.
The reason I disliked coming was because Charlie and I weren’t close, and because I disliked the weather, simply because of how rainy and cold it was. It was bleak compared to the heat that Phoenix, my home, carried. It wasn’t until my mom remarried, to a man named Phil Dwyer, that I realized I was holding my mother back from living a life and being able to travel with her new husband. It kept her from doing something she really wanted to do. So hesitantly....almost reluctantly, I chose to return to Forks.
It wasn’t a choice I wanted. But it was necessary. I couldn’t be the reason that mom wasn’t happy. Even though mom had never said she wasn’t unhappy staying at hoome with me, I knew that she wasn’t. I was a bit more perceptive than she took me for. It was why I did what I had to do. Even if it wasn’t something that I truly wanted to do.
I felt guilty about it, and so this was why I had decided to leave home. I would go back to Forks, Washington, to move in with Charlie. This way it would give Mom the oppertunity to travel and Charlie’s wish of having me back. I would miss Phoenix. I would miss the heat. I would miss my loving erratic hairbrained mother and her new husband. But they want to go on the road so I’m going to spend some time with my dad. This will be a good thing, I think.
So with that I booked a flight to go to Forks, taking only what was neccessary with me. When Charlie first picked me up from the airport, it was awkward. I felt like things weren’t how they were supposed to be. Upon returning to the house, Charlie had a surprise for me. Something I never would have expected, but I was actually happy about. For my home coming present, Charlie bought me an old red truck from his best friend Billy, Jacob’s father. He was there the first time I ever saw it. Jacob even promised he'd help teach me to drive the stick shift since I hadn't driven that way before.
At first coming to Forks, it was just like I remembered from the last time I was here. The best thing about being back was that Charlie didn’t hover. Yes I call my father Charlie instead of Dad but that was because it was simpler to do so after not really having the kind of bond that most fathers and daughters had. I had to finish my education since I was a junior in high school. But because it’s March and it will be in the middle of the semester when I enter Forks High as a student.

HOW YOU FOUND US: This site left a link on one of my other sites, Forever Young.
ROLEPLAY SAMPLE: Taken from another site where I play Bella Cullen.
I could remember with vivid clarity the last night of my human life. How I had been in so much pain, but it had also brought me an immesurable amount of joy. As although I knew there was a chance, that I would not be around for my child’s life, I was okay with that. Because the baby would have Edward. And the rest of our family....though I knew it wouldn’t be the same as actually being there for my child.
It was why I was content to know that I could leave this life, in case the venom didn’t work. I had hoped it would be enough though, as I hated the idea of leaving my child without its mother. It had seemed like a dream, the entire time I’d been pregnant. I never thought it would happen to me. But I suppose that’s why when it did happen, that I could not abandon the child growing within me. As I could recall how when I found out I was pregnant, that it had left Edward in quite a shock. There were no words that Edward was able to say.
I did not regret my pregnancy, as it had brought Rosalie and myself closer together. We were able to bond over it. It was something that Rosalie had once said was important, and how Rosalie had wanted a family of her own but couldn’t have one due to what she was...a vampire. It was why I was grateful when Rosalie had stepped in and had been so helpful to me during the time when I needed her the most. She had been protective over me and my unborn child, even when the rest of our family did not see it that way. At first they had thought I should abort this baby. But I knew I couldn’t. Because I loved the baby already. The others were insistant that we kill what was growing inside of me, but even that thought had been terrible. I couldn’t kill a child, because that’s what was inside me. Even though it had never been proven that vampires could father children, at least that’s what Carlisle had stated. Jacob had even been against me having my child, so I knew I couldn’t count on him this time. It was a path that even though I was willing to take, that everyone around me was going to question my choices, as to what was the best thing for me. Even with the cost it held. I wasn’t going to change my mind.
I knew I had to be able to hold my strength, until the end, because as the baby got stronger, I got weaker. My human body was unable to carry a child of this kind of strength. It was breaking me apart, from the inside out as what Carlisle said. His words echoed in my head, in the days that followed. Yes, my ribs were broken, and that I was growing weaker, but I had to be strong, not only for my child, but for my husband as well. The last day of my life, was something that I will never forget.
I was growing weaker, and about to die, as Rosalie, Edward and Jacob tried to get my child out of me before it happened. I knew this was it. That I was to die. I was okay with that. So long as my child got to live a happy life. The last thing I recall seeing of my human life, was that of my darling baby’s face. I had loved my child, so much. I had hoped the others would learn to love it too. And with that my human life was over, as my heart gave out and stopped it’s incessant beating. Three days later, the most wonderful miracle I could have ever hoped for had happened. I had woken up to be as a vampire. The very thing I had wanted ever since meeting and learning of the truth of who Edward was. Or rather what he was. It was different though as even though I was back, it wasn’t with a beating heart like before. My heart was unable to beat because I was no longer among the living. I was basically a walking corpse as Jacob had said.
But it didn’t matter as this was what I had wanted, because it meant I would forever be able to be with Edward. It united us in a way that marriage was unable to. It would mean that we truly would be able to live forever together, and in harmony. I was able to meet and hold my child for the first time, it was only then that I learned that she was a little girl. Holding my daughter for the first time, was a genuine miracle. She was named Renesmee Carlie Cullen. But with the good things that life had brought me came the bad things. The Volturi would soon return to our quaint little town.
Alice’s vision prepared us in a way that we hoped would never see. She had seen the Volturi coming for us, and for my child. She was mine and Edward’s little girl, and she was gifted much like her father and I were. Edward could read minds and I was blessed enough to become a shield. So that no one, not even the Volturi could read my mind. Now a hundred years has passed since I have first awakened in this life as a vampire and I could never be more proud and happy with the choice that I have made. Of my committment to not only my husband but to our little girl as well. Everyday my child has grown. Grown into the adult that she was meant to be. I had loved my daughter, with every fiber within me. As any parent would. Being a parent meant never turning one’s back against the truth.
Against all odds, my family and I were right where we were supposed to be. I may have lost my biological parents, the ones who had brought me into this world. I know they are looking down on me from whereever it is that they are, as was Sue Clearwater, who had been with Charlie, and Phil Dwyer who had been with my mother. I had been able to have a good relationship with both Charlie and Sue, more so than I was able to with Mom and Phil. Only because Charlie knew that I wasn’t the same, but he didn’t press questions. My mother on the other hand would have, so after my transformation I kept our relationship to calls every few weeks. I had to swallow my own pride when I found myself returning to Charlie’s old house, the one I lived in when I visited him as a child. The house, which had been left to me, upon his death, had been a sight for sore eyes.
I didn’t know where the rest of my family was, as they had all been going in many different directions, one could never guess whether one of them was coming or going. I had only known that Carlisle was at the hopsital, but other than that, I had no idea where the others were. Not that I have anything to worry about as we’re all safe here, in Forks. I’ve always known that. So long as we don’t do anything that would warrent one of the Volturi, or it’s entire guard from another unexpected visit.
I turned the key to the front door. If I hadn’t known that it had been a hundred years, I would have expected Charlie to greet me at the door, just like always. Just like he had after I had visited once I had been able to truly control my thirst. Hunting had allowed me to stay around Charlie and other humans like him for the extent of time that I was in effect around them.
Despite the fact of not being able to breathe, I had learned to act like it. So as to keep up appearances just like my family had shown me to do. As the amily could not allow another human to find out what we were. Despite the fact that she knew there were suspicions of how strange our family was, it wasn’t enough to warrant any concerns, yet. Walking further into the house, I could tell that it hadn’t changed much. But it was quiet, too quiet. It was strange of how quiet it was. Suddenly I heard footsteps behind me, and I didn’t have to guess who it was. As I smelled him, before I saw him, it led to my turning my head and grinning once I caught sight of the man. It was not just any man but the sight of the man I loved more than anything else in this world. Speaking up carefully I smiled toward the man in question. "Edward what are you doing here?"
