History: Edward Cullen was born to Edward and Elizabeth Masen of Chicago Illinois. He was born in June of 1901. He grew up with out hearing the word no since his father was a prominent lawyer.

In August of 1918, the draft age was changed from 21 to 18 and thus made Edwards mother worry about him being drafted into the war.

Late September of that same year, the pandemic of the Spanish Influenza hit the Chicago area extremely hard. Edward and his parents were all afflicted with the disease.

Working in Chicago at that time was Carlisle Cullen.

It was Elizabeths dying wish that Carlisle do everything in his power to safe Edward.

Three days later, a brand new vampire was born… Edward Cullen.

In 1921, both Carlisle and Edward welcomed into the family, Esme, who became Edwards adoptive mother.

Between the years of 1927 and 1931 he had a bout of rebellion. Edward didn’t agree with Carlisles way of life at first. And the reason why it took him nine years to defy Carlisle is due to the fact that he could see his reasoning so clearly.

Edward figured that if he only killed the bad guys, the murders, the molesters, and so forth, that he would be exempt from the guilt that accompanies a conscience.

After a few years, he returned to Carlisle and Esme like the prodigal.

In 1933, he became the “brother” to Rosalie Hale.

Originally, Rosalie was brought into the family by Carlisle in the hopes that she would be to Edward what Esme was to him… this was not meant to be. Edward and Rosalie only saw one another as brother and sister, therefore the relationship never went further than that.

In 1935, Emmett joined the family. Rosalie found him and he became her lover.

In 1950, after returning from a hunting trip with Emmett, Edward found all of his things stored in the garage and a Jasper toting little freak in his former room.

This little freak turned out to be Alice, and Edwards “sister.”

In January of 2005, Edward met his singer. Bella Swan. It was wasn’t until March that he actually spoke to her, about six weeks after he had saved her from nearly being killed by Tyler Crowlys van.

In the same month (March) he fell in love with her. He saved her from James, a tracker vampire hell bent of killing Bella.

In September of 2005 Edward had to protect Bella from one of his own family members. (Jasper). He then decided that this would be a good time to “leave” and track Victoria since Victoria was out for revenge.

He ended up in South America.

In March of 2006, Edward nearly killed himself for he thought Bella to be dead. Since Alice had a vision of Bella committing suicide by jumping from a cliff. He was informed of this by Rosalie.

As it turns out, Bella, had in fact jumped off a cliff, but not to commit suicide, but to experience cliff diving.

It was Bella who saved him. And it was Aro who gave the two of them a second chance.

In June of 2006, Edward asked Bella to marry him officially.

Also, in the same year, he killed Victoria, with the help of Seth, a werewolf from the reservation.
