Claire is also the Imprint of Quil Ateara V and a member of the Makah tribe. Claire lived on the Makah tribe until June 12, 2006. At the tender age of three, her parents left her at the Quileute Tribe with her aunt Emily.

During Claire's senior year of Highschool she becomes the girlfriend to her imprinter Quil Ateara V.

## Early Life

Claire was born on September 4, 2003 on the Makah Tribe reservation in the state of Washington. Claire was raised by her parents with her older sister Cora for the first 2 years of her life. During a visit to her Aunt Emily's house on the Quileute reservation, Claire is imprinted on by Quileute shape-shifter Quil Ateara V. From the moment that Quil imprinted on Claire he acted as an older brother and best friend to her. Quil's need to spend time with her and make her happy forshadows his possible romantic feelings for her that may arise when she is old enought to reciprocate them. After Claire is imprinted on, she becomes a very fussy baby and throws tantrums when she is away from Quil. Claire's parents began to get annoyed with their daugter as she only wants Quil and will scream at the top of her lungs for him shouting *"Queel!"* Claire's parents think it is really wierd that a grown teenager wants to spend time with their toddler and decide to move away for a while. Claire's tantrums get worse as the distance between her and Quil grows.

Claire's parents finally get fed up with the whole situation and her attitude, and decided to leave her on Emily Uley's doorstep with a nasty note that Emily and Quil ruined their daughter. Since the age of 3  years old Claire was raised in a loving home with a warm family and friends that helped raise Claire and her cousin Greyson. Even though Claire and Grey are biologically cousins they were raised as sibilings, leading Claire to think of him as her kid brother. Their three and a half year age gap was nothing growing up leading the two to spend a lot of time together forming a close bond.

Claire's imprinter, Quil Ateara, spent much of his time with the kids at the Uley house due to his connection to Claire. Yet, Quil hid his favorite well and never failed to take Grey on all of his adventures with Claire.Claire would occasionaly get jealous of the close friendship between Grey and Quil and would often shout that he was her Quil.

During Claire's adolescent years she often noticed how attractive Quil was and being to wonder why he never had a girlfriend and chose to spend all his free time with her. Claire did enjoy their close bond but she began to hide a few things from Quil that where embarrasing such as periods and crushes as she grew older.

## High School

### Leaving the Reservation

The summer before her freshman year of High school Claire opted to attend Forks High school with her childhood bestie Renesmee Cullen, instead of continuing her education on the reservation. This caused a major problem between her Aunt Emily, Uncle Sam, Quil, and the Elders who all believed that it was in Claire's best interest to continue her education on the tribe and learn about her tribal duties that she will need in the future as an imprint. Emily believed that since Claire had an obligation to the tribe that was bestowed on her so young with out her input, that she should be allowed to enjoy some time away from the reservation. Claire did not understand why Quil was so upset about her leaving the reservation school. When in reality Quil liked that the boys on the reservation kind of knew that Claire was off limits to them, where at a new school, the boys there would not know of their bond. After much convincing between both Emily and Claire with the promise to continue her tribal lessons after school, she was allowed to be enrolled into Forks High school.

### Freshman-Junior Year

During the enrollment of Freshman year of high school Claire noticed a sign for cheerleading tryouts and immediately went home to practice a routine. Claire has been taking Ice Skating Lessons since she was six and chose to audition for the squad with one of her old skating routines. Claire and her best friend Nessie both tried out for the team and with Nessie's vampire grace and dance background, both girls ended up making the team. They were super excited about summer rehearsals where they became instant friends with new coming freshman Franchesca Jolie. Chess, Nessie, and Claire remain best friends throughout the rest of their high school career. Claire even confides in both girls that she is starting to form a crush on her best friend Quil. Chess agrees with Claire that Quil is super cute, where as Nessie states that her Jacob is way cuter.

After attempting to flirt with Quil for two years, Claire eventually decides to move on from her feelings for Quil and rebounds on to HighSchool quarterback Tommy Sullivan. Claire's uncle Sam prohibits Claire from dating Tommy in the beginning for some unknown reason which angers Claire and she sneaks out to see him anyways. Emily convinces Sam to let Claire date Tommy because Quil is not ready to date her, which is breaking Claire's heart. After recieving the blessing from Sam with the promise to bring Tommy over the house for dinner. Claire and Tommy Sullivan date all the way until Senior year.

## Physical Appearance

## Personality

laire is known to be very playful, lovely, and somewhat of a prankster. She enjoys Quil's company more than anything else.

Claire wishes to fit in very badly with the normal world, not wanting to feel like an outsider. She joins cheerleading to gain popularity, and therefore friends. She thinks the popular crowd is cool even though sometimes they can be shallow. She doesn't sacrifice her own sense of morals by joining in on any mean spirited actions, but she also doesn't stop them either.

After a while though, Claire grows tired of her co-captain, Becca's, tyrannical attitude, ending their "friendship." This shows Claire is capable of standing up for what she believes, though the sake of her reputation may make her hesitant at times.

She seems quite young at times, but she desperately wishes to be seen as an adult, especially in Quil Ateara's eyes. She goes to many different measures to prove her maturity, which most of the time lead to a string of shenanigans.

Claire's love for "Uncle Jay" made Nessie feel uneasy at first due to the possibility of competition. Once Quil walked over and Claire ran into his arms before sharing a big hug, Nessie realized that Quil was the Jake to Claire and realized that she was not a threat as she had assumed. The girls took an immediate liking to each other,upon being introduced. The pair was attached at the hip the entire night to Quil and Jake's delight.

She especially loved how Nessie looked like her princess barbie doll.While the girls where holding hands throughout the night,Nessie would share her happy thoughts and emotions. The two girls bossed Jake and Quil around telling them to participate in the little girl party games with them. The two got along so well that Quil suggested setting up a little sleepover at his house to continue Claire's celebration. To Embry's dismay, Quil and Jake set up blankets in the living room for the girls to have a Barbie marathon. The two pairs sat together all night singing with the sing-along Barbie songs.
