This is the character chart for the Swan/Black family. I didn't put the Cullens because anyone who reads Twilight fanfiction should already know these types of things about them. I got Bella's information from a wiki site I think. Anyway this is also an edited version of the character chart because re-reading it I discovered things I didn't like or wanted to add or clarify. For example the hair, Jasper's Soul Mate pointed out to me that it was very blond and after looking at it I agreed. I had never ment to have that many blond kids. I have more vivid descriptions for some of the characters because when I first thought about them I had a clearer picture in mind of who they were. I also would like some people to comment about the abilities because I tried to make this different from other stories like this whose coven members have great or superhero like powers (flying, control of fire, ect.). I also wanted to put a new light on the gifts vampires get, because they are not always gifts, like Edward doesn't always enjoy his mind reading power. Anyway I hope you enjoy.
