I was born in 1843 in my home state of Texas. Twenty years later, I was changed into a vampire by a woman known to few as Maria. She and the other two members of her clan (Nettie and Lucy, who are also vampires) transformed me into the being I am today. Believe it or not, I served as a Major in the Confederate army during the Civil War. The vampire family that changed me in 1863 was very different from the Cullens in their dietary habits –- they fed off humans. I became depressed over my way of life and soon enough, I sought something better. My search led me to Alice in 1948, which in turn led me to Carlisle in 1950, a mere two years later. Carlisle taught us about his “vegetarian” lifestyle, meaning that we drink from animals and not humans. Surviving off animals is extremely difficult for me, but I manage to do it with Alice’s continuous love and support. I’d do anything for her. It is extremely difficult for me to be around humans, and going to school certainly doesn’t help. But I naturally manage for Alice, of course. I am currently taking a year off before attending college (again). This allows me to be near Alice while she finishes up her senior year in high school. I used the last name of Hale because Rosalie and I look so much alike, and because people assume us to be twins. We, as a family, tend to go with whatever the humans are willing to believe, making it easier on us. Rosalie insists on using Hale as a last name, and therefore, I took it as mine, too. Anything to make our living as smooth as possible. "You held out your hand, and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope." Alice is everything to me.
