Background:
So tell me about yourself.
My name is Charlene Harris, people call me Charlie. I was born in Boulder Colorado. My mother told me I was the only child in existence to be born with a broken heart. From the day I was born, I suffered from serious depression. My mother told me it was as if I missed someone. If she put me by a window, I would stare out of it for hours. I cried for the first 3 months of my life then suddenly, I just stopped. I didn't speak until I was 4 years old. That was about the time I started walking in my sleep. My parents found me one night walking in the forest, calling out a name. They won’t tell me what it was; only that it wasn’t a name anyone used anymore. They had to put special locks on the doors and windows so I couldn’t get outside. I don’t remember sleepwalking or what I may have been dreaming about. I have always felt like my life was empty, like someone was missing, like my heart was broken. Throughout high school boys would try to date me but I felt like I would be betraying someone if I did. I got a job as a librarian when I turned 18 and graduated from high school. I worked nights. It was quiet that way and I didn't really have to talk to anyone. It was here that I discovered Greek mythology. I fell in love with the story of Orpheus and Eurydice. I felt so sorry for them and I cried pitifully every time I read the story to the point of being inconsolable. When I was 22, one evening, I got up from my bed, sleepwalking and somehow found a way outside. I walked through the forest calling the name of the man. A vampire heard my call and came to investigate. Later he told me he found me to be the most beautiful creature he had ever seen in my flowing nightgown and bare feet. He had recently fed so he knew he could turn me without killing me and he had to have me for his own. But he wanted to find out who this man was that I was calling for. He searched the forest around me and found no one. When he returned to me, he found that I was asleep. He fell upon me and bit me. His intention was to turn me and make me his own. He stayed by me for the 3 days it took for me to change then lied to me when I woke up about what happened. He told me he found me there after I was attacked and he swore he would help me. He did help me, by teaching me how to survive as a vampire. He repeatedly tried to be affectionate but I repeatedly turned him away, I just couldn’t feel that way about him. To add to the insult, at night I would go into a trance like state and wonder into the forest calling the name of the man. Whoever he was. He grew angrier and angrier until one day he flew into a rage. He would have me and make me his, even if he had to take me forcibly. He attacked me but with my newborn strength; I turned on him and killed him before he could take my virtue. I ran away and made my way to Forks Washington. By the time I actually made it there, I was no longer a newborn. I had taken to feeding on animals so my eyes had turned a lovely shade of antique gold. I found a job at a librarian earning a modest salary and rented a small flat. I spend my days reading and working and my nights wandering the forest in a trance calling his name. Oh, and the vampire who turned me told me the name that I call, before I killed him. I don't understand why I would call the name of Orpheus…

Not in school.

So, what do you like to eat?
Blood.
What foods make you hurl?
Anything else.
What do you like to do?
I play the mandolin, sing, and dance.
That’s some attitude, want to tell me about it?
I’m quiet but friendly. I feel like I’m missing someone but I have never lost anyone important to me. I don’t talk much and spend a lot of time staring off into space. Sometimes when I daydream I can see the face of a young man and for some reason, it makes me want to cry. I just don’t seem capable of feeling happy.
So, what’s so good about you?
I’m quiet and friendly. I mind my own business. I do my job efficiently and I’m very kind.
Do you have any flaws?
While I am polite and friendly, I do have a temper that would make a pit bull cringe. I’m sad, all the time. If a human crosses me, they just might end up my dinner.
