Character Basics
Name: Carmen
Nickname: N/A
Age: Around 400 years old; Appears to be in her late 20s/early 30s
Appearance
Looks: Carmen is described as a dark haired woman with a slight olive complexion to her vampiric paleness. She stands quite tall for a woman at just under six feet tall and has a slender figure. Her eyes have the golden colour typical of a vegetarian vampire, though before she encountered the Denali clan, they were crimson.
Scars, tattoos, other marks: None visible
Portrayed by: Penélope Cruz
Personality and Stats
Basic Personality: Carmen is known mostly for her compassionate nature, which is one of the reasons that it is assumed that if Carmen and her spouse, Eleazar, had never found the Denalis, they still would have found away to exist without human blood. She found her conscience as a vampire without guidance, which was one of the main reasons that she left the Volturi with Eleazar. Along with being compassionate, Carmen is also open-minded, being the first to accept and befriend the vampire/human hybrid, Renesmee.
Species: Vegetarian Vampire
Abilities: None
Occupation: Ex-Volturi, currently a member of the Denali coven
Car: None/travels with Eleazar
History:
Birthplace: Spain
Family: Eleazar (spouse), Tanya, Irina, Kate (immediate ‘family’) the Cullens (extended friends/family)
Friends: Volturi, the Cullens
History: Like her spouse, Eleazar, Carmen was born in Spain in the seventeenth century. As time wasn’t kept so rigidly for anyone below the ruling classes, she doesn’t quite know how old she is, though she can hazard that she is around four hundred years old. Most of her human life is now a blur to her given the amount of time that has passed since her transformation, but from what she can recall there was nothing notable about her human life.
After her transformation, Carmen found herself wandering around Europe without much purpose, vaguely dissatisfied with the suffering she brought upon her human victims. A while later she found herself in Volterra, Italy, and found herself a place within the Volturi, even though she had no abilities to speak of. While in the Volturi she found, at first, that their confidence in the naturalness of their predator-prey relationship made her feel better about hunting. However, as the years passed she found the dissatisfaction with hunting and the Volturi’s actions returning. She had, by this point, met Eleazar, to whom she found an instant connection. Together they left the Volturi, parting in on good terms, and travelled the world together, feeling all the better for being with each other. It was on these travels that the couple eventually came across the Denali sisters in Alaska and Carmen found that their vegetarian way of life to made sense to her. It had taken countless years, but Carmen had found a place and a person that she felt absolutely whole with. It seemed to her that everyone she has met since that point, the Cullens, has also added to her existence.
