About myself

I am never sure what to write in these things, so I think I shall start from the beginning. My name is Jasper Whitlock, or as many of you know me Jasper Whitlock hale. I was born in 1843 and grew up in Houston, Texas. When I was almost 17, I lied about my age, claiming I was 20, and was accepted into the Confederate States Army, I was considered promising in my work, being classed as one of the best soldiers, I rose fairly quickly to become the youngest Major in the Army. In 1963, I celebrated my real 20th birthday; little did I know that this would be my last.

It was in this year when I was on a mission, when I met Maria. My life changed and ended in the moment I first laid eyes on her and her companions. The next few days were excruciating for me, and when I awoke I was new, different, and forever 20. I gained new skills, and a powerful grip on emotions, As a Child I got on well with everyone, My own Father put it down to Charisma, but now looking back I suspect something more, something deeper than simple charisma, I am able to manipulate the emotions around me to what ever I wish, as well as sensing the emotion that someone feels. I guess you would call me an Empath.

The next few years are times that I wish to forget, I was wild, an animal running an army with a woman that I grew to hate. I hated what I was, what I'd become. I found my release with Peter and Charlotte, leaving Maria, and becoming nomadic, but while Charlotte and Peter were my friends, they could not understand what was wrong with me. So eventually we split. And it was then, while wondering a street in Philadelphia, I decided to make a detour into an old diner to shelter form the rain. That moment changed my life for the better. That was when I met my soul mate. Alice.

She showed me all that I could not fathom, and I knew she was the one. We soon found the Cullens and their way of life changed me for the better. I now live with my adopted family here in Forks Washington.

While I find being with humans hard, I regret nothing, this is my life now.

Family
I'm married to the most beautiful woman in the world, Alice Cullen, My Rock and Love. She is everything in my world, I would do anything for my love, she's the reason I am who I am, and she keeps me grounded and happy. If anything were to happen to Alice I wouldn't be able to live. We met in a very unusual situation, but one look into her eyes and I knew where I belonged, she makes me complete in so many ways, she is my better half, she owns everything about me. Some men may say I'm whipped, I say bring on the chains. Alice is everything. I hate to make her sad, or unhappy in anyway, and I live for the moments I can see her smile shining at me, warming my heart and soul like nothing else. As far as I'm concerned there is no world, Only Alice. She's the reason I am here, and for that I am grateful beyond words. I love my wife very much.
Alice, my darlin' I love you more than anything in the whole world.

I have of course a whole bunch of siblings, and two wonderful foster parents, I care about my family more than I thought possible, I'm all in all very happy with the people I ended up with. My life has taken a turn for the better and for that I'm very grateful, things are looking up and all because of a certain Pixie and the family she provided me with, Esme, Carlisle, Rosalie, Emmett, Edward, Bella and the newest edition, Nessie.

And not forgetting our extended family, the lovely Tanya and her love of Pink, Kate and her love of all things different, Garrett, Carmen, Eleazar, Zafrina, Senna and all the others...

A special mention is placed here however for my Best friend (excluding Alice) Makenna, what can I say? The girl and I just get along, she's a really good person to talk to, she listens and she's always making me laugh, I don't think I've ever been this close to someone that was not Alice. Kenny just slotted right in, and while she's insane, she is also an amazing creature.

Being an old fashioned guy, I follow a lot of the rules that modern society has expelled, I believe that to make a woman cry is the lowest thing any man could do, along with acting like complete orc and doing things that would make a woman uncomfortable. Women are so much higher than us and we should praise them for that, we men should cherish them.

Now some things you may not know.
Physically: I'm 6'4 in Height, Yes that makes me Taller than all the others in my family(Even Emmett), and while I am Blonde, I am in no way stupid, I think you'll find I am quite intelligent. My eyes were once a dark shade of Green.

Personally: I've picked up playing guitar, and I'm pretty good at it.
I love all sorts of music, modern and older. My Favorite band is Queen, or Linkin Park, but I like Muse, Phil Collins, Kiss, Eminem anything really...
My favorite Book is Les Miserables by Victor Hugo, although I do like many others.
My Favorite Movie is a tie between I Am Legend and Casablanca (who doesn't love the classics?). I do however like other things like Alien and various action movies, as well as the occasional more… soft film like RENT. Sweeney Todd's pretty cool too.
And I've got a thing for speed, but then again so does everyone in my family, with the exception of Bella...

I'll keep to myself mostly, but if you do something to piss me off, you will pay… I do not make empty threats, just ask my Brothers.

Jasper.
