## Biography

**For all of Charlie's information in the Twilight Saga, visit his page in the wiki website.**

### *A New Life*

Sometime in the last eight years, Charlie marries Sue. Bella makes a visit to Charlie and brings Lucas Stone along to meet him. There, it turns out that Lucas and Charlie know each other due to Charlie’s friendship with Lucas’s father, Kendall Stone, also a Chief of Police in Lacey. Charlie was sad to have heard that Kendall, along with his wife Jessica Stone and his daughter Lilly Stone were killed in a fire in their home which was later revealed to have been caused by the Volturi.

### *Happily Ever After*

Charlie attended the wedding of Lucas and Krystal Diamond. At the reception, he was seen giving a toast of congratulations and tells the story how Lucas once handcuffed Charlie when he was a kid and lost the keys.

### *Have A Purpose*

Charlie first appears in a cameo attending the wedding of Tiffany Stewart and Jalen Long. Two weeks later, Charlie was called by Krystal after she and Lucina Stewart were harassed by Mike Newton and was even outraged when Lucas showed him a photo possessed by Mike where it shows a photo shopped version of him and Bella together, giving all the more reason for Charlie to throw Mike in jail.

Charlie later appears with Sue dropping by at the Cullens’ home to wish them a Merry Christmas. There, he confronts Jalen knowing of his crime he was falsely accused of and his time on the run. Charlie states that he believes Jalen is innocent and will not turn him in, but advises him and the Cullens to be careful in order to clear his name. He was last seen in the story where a meeting was held at the police statin held by his boss Commissioner Asher Pennington after he berated everyone minus Charlie for their involement at North Central High School prom. Asher then later promoted Charlie to Assistant Commissioner after firing the previous one, leaving Charlie stunned.

#### *A Christmas Surprise*

Charlie celebrates Christmas with the Cullens at their place joined by a few other guests where the Cullens tell them about the supernatural and finding out them being vampires. The reason why is because as the new Volturi, the Cullens told every one of their story and the events that has happened revealing about the supernatural. They made one adjustment to the law about revealing their existence; if a civilized vampire has any living family member or someone connected to, they have the right to know as long as they don't reveal the existence to other humans. Since Charlie is married to Sue, that makes him third-in-command of the Quileute council and because of his relationship with Bella and her family, Charlie was brought into the supernatural.
