Throughout the series, he falls in love with human Bella, eventually gives into his sort-of human urges to have sex, impregnantes her, and eventually lives out his life with Bella, who is now a vampire, and their terrifying and terribly named daughter Reneesmee. Well, Buzzfeed writer Jenna Guillaume has pointed us all towards the explanation.
Author Stephenie Meyer was actually asked so much about this plothole that she explained how a bloodless vamp got a boner. However, the cells that make up their skin are not pliant like our cells, they are hard and reflective like crystal.
Edward fears that the pregnancy will kill her, and, unable to stand the thought, he tries to convince her into having an abortion. However, she feels a bond with her unborn child and insists on giving birth.
Edward doesn't give up so easily, going as far as to ask Jacob if he would conceive a child with Bella. The baby, however, eventually wins Edward over; when old enough, is able to let him hear its thoughts, and he is both shocked and delighted to find out that it already loves the two of them.
Bella nearly dies giving birth in an emergency c-section, but Edward successfully delivers his baby girl with Jacob's help, whom Bella had named Renesmee. Edward then injects his venom into Bella's heart, thus healing her wounds by turning her into a vampire. During Bella's painful transformation, Jacob goes crazy with rage when he thinks she is dead.
Irrationally blaming Renesmee, he tries to kill her, but ends up imprinting on her instead. In the movie , when the Uley pack attempts to destroy his daughter, Edward rushes to stop them with Alice and Jasper.
They were initially outnumbered, but the rest of their family come to their aid in seconds, and then the Black pack. Through Jacob's thoughts, he learns that he had imprinted on his daughter. During Bella's transformation, Edward sits patiently by her side, waiting for her to recover. He is also relieved by the renewed peace between the wolves and his family, and more importantly, the arrival of their half-human daughter; but incredibly irritated by Jacob's imprinting on her.
When Bella wakes up from her transformation, Edward takes her out on her first hunt so she won't attack Renesmee. He is impressed by her ability to resist the smell of human blood, but still irritated by his inability to read her mind. They are also given a cottage renovated by Esme as a present. Edward and Bella are extremely annoyed by Jacob's imprinting on Renesmee, but they later accept that it was involuntary. By this time, Edward and Jacob appear to have become friends, who does them a "favor" by telling Charlie about the supernatural world but restrains from telling him about vampires, which allows the Cullens to stay in Forks for a while longer.
Three months later, Irina , of the Denali coven , reports Renesmee to the Volturi as an immortal child , whose creation is forbidden. The Volturi gather their entire guard against the Cullens. In the month it takes for them to arrive, the Cullens turn to all their allies the La Push werewolves , the Denali Coven, and numerous other vampires for assistance.
When the Volturi finally arrive, the confrontation comes close to a fight. Bella's gift becomes apparent in the fact that she can protect her and others around her from the Volturi's mental attacks. This causes the Volturi to rethink their position. In the end, however, the Volturi are convinced that Renesmee is not a threat, and they leave. With the confrontation over, Edward, Bella and Renesmee are free to live their lives, though they suspect it may not be forever.
At the end of the story, while alone with Edward, Bella removes her shield , allowing him to read her mind for the first time and realizing how much she truly loves him, which brings them even closer.
And from then on, their happily ever after begins. Edward is noted to be extremely attractive. Bella has often described his appearance as similar to the mythical Greek god, Adonis. His facial features are described as perfect and angular—high cheekbones, a strong jawline, perfect eyebrows, a straight nose and full lips. His untidy hair retains the unusual bronze shade that he inherited from his biological mother, Elizabeth Masen.
His eyes, once green, are now described as topaz or liquid gold. His appearance changes if he goes long without feeding: his eyes darken, becoming onyx black, and purple bruise-like shadows appear beneath his eyes.
Edward stands at 6'2", and has a thin and lanky but muscular body, remaining frozen physically at 17 years old, though he is technically over a hundred. Edward is usually described as brooding and stubborn, but also very kind and compassionate. Bella also describes him as charming, polite, and determined. He easily dazzles human females with his beauty, scent and body, and persuades them to do his bidding. He always puts Bella's safety, humanity and welfare before anything else, and goes to great lengths to protect her from what he sees as danger.
Edward is also a bit of a romantic at heart. He often over analyzes situations and has a tendency to overreact, especially in situations where Bella's safety is potentially at risk - evident in his decision to disable her vehicle to prevent her from visiting the emotionally unstable Jacob Black. He retains some of the traditional mindset and outdated speech from his human life in the early 20th century. Since vampires do not sleep, he employs the night hours reading books and studying languages, science, business and music, becoming a virtuoso on the piano he owns in his house.
As a human, he learned to play the piano and became a very well-playing pianist. This trait was carried on to his transformation, and as a result he has a liking to composing something that comes passionately. Edward enjoys listening to a wide range of music, including classical, jazz, progressive metal, alternative rock, punk rock, but he dislikes country.
He prefers indie rock to mainstream, and appreciates rock and classical music equally. He surprises Bella in an early car ride by having Debussy in his CD player. He never comments on the music from his own teen years, as well as the twenties swing music which came a few years after his turning. Edward and his family all enjoy driving fast. He has a hobby of collecting cars. He also gave his sister Alice a yellow Porsche Turbo as a gift in Eclipse.
He bought a motorcycle to ride alongside Bella, but gave it to Jasper after realizing that this was something she did with Jacob. Esme described him as a gentleman. Although Edward appears convinced of his own soulless status, Bella noted that he must believe on some level that he possesses a soul as, when he saw her in Volterra while believing that she was dead, his automatic assumption was that he had gone to Heaven with her rather than that she was still alive.
Stephenie Meyer explains that Edward started out as a pessimistic character. He always thought of himself as an abomination of nature, not deserving happiness nor believing that his relationship with Bella would last, until he gave her a daughter and brought Bella more happiness than he could have ever imagined.
To him, Bella's happiness was everything; furthermore, he was the one who gave her that. At the end of Breaking Dawn , he has become a much more positive person and fearlessly faces the Volturi.
Edward's super strength causes him to break one side of the van while saving Bella. Edward is the fastest vampire in the Cullen family. He is also a skilled fighter in the Cullen coven, though for his speed rather than being the strongest. As a vampire, he has sharp senses, superhuman strength, speed, endurance, healing factor, and agility.
He describes himself as the most dangerous predator in the world whereas his appearance, scent and voice are enormously attractive to his prey, so much so that he occasionally sends Bella into a daze entirely by accident. Edward explains that vampires do not need to breathe, though they often do so out of habit and to retain their ability to smell. He cannot digest human food, and compares its attractiveness for him to the prospect of eating dirt for a regular person.
He also compares his family's "vegetarian" diet to a human only eating tofu, as it gives them the same strength as human blood but never fully satisfies them. Edward reading Bella 's mind. Edward possesses the gift to read the thoughts of those around him.
His gift is different from Aro 's, which is limited by his need to touch the target and can access every thought a person has ever had. Aro is intrigued by Edward's power because he can read people's thoughts from a distance and what is going through their mind at that moment, and wishes to make him part of the Volturi guard.
However, Edward has no interest of belonging to any authority. Edward's power seemingly comes from his dormant ability to read people as a human, which became a supernatural talent when he became a vampire. He can hear all "voices" in close proximity with him, but has learned to block out the ones he is uninterested in by focusing on one voice or something in particular. Edward mentions that his ability is like being in a room where everyone is talking at once.
He can tune out the "voices" so that it's just a low buzzing in the background. The closer and more familiar he is to a person, the farther away he can reach that person's mind when he wants to, but can only keep track of them within a few miles.
He mentions in Twilight that he can use it to dismiss people who feel attraction toward him and his family. He can also telepathically experience Alice 's visions and keep track of a shape-shifter 's telepathic link to his pack when he is within range. However, Bella Swan is the first exception to his gift as she is shielded from psychic powers , which is part of what made him curious about her when they first met.
Edward's relationship with his biological parents was very old-fashioned. He loved them, especially his mother. In New Moon , Carlisle mentions that it was Elizabeth who made up his mind to transform Edward into a vampire, in order to save his life. Bella Swan is Edward's wife. Edward had a strong attraction to Bella's blood, making it extremely difficult for him to even be in her presence.
The Volturi called Bella, in their own words, his la tua cantante or his "singer". For Edward, Bella is the center of his existence. Early on in Twilight , Edward struggled to stay away from Bella in an attempt to protect her, but he eventually convinced himself that his lust for her scent was a budding love for her despite his apprehensions. For this reason Edward sees himself as selfish, knowing that he should stay away from Bella for her safety, but not being able to bring himself to do it.
He also finds her interesting due to his inability to read her mind, and often surprises him with actions and thoughts that never quite go the way he expects.
Even though he gets to know her better, he is constantly frustrated by his inability to read her thoughts. While Bella is human, he has to constantly keep himself in control to protect her, for even a simple touch he could kill her. He confesses to himself that by meeting Bella, he has found the human side that was long ago buried under. When he thought she was dead in New Moon , he found himself devastated and broken, which later improved his ability to maintain absolute control of his lust for her blood.
As much as he loved her, Edward was averse to changing Bella into a vampire, despite her strong desire to become one, because of his belief that vampires are soulless creatures. However, in New Moon he agrees to do so after they are married, and she eventually accepts his proposal in Eclipse. Bella and Edward marry in the beginning of Breaking Dawn , and Edward later changes her into a vampire with venom straight to the heart to keep her from dying from childbirth.
By changing Bella into a vampire, Edward is able to touch her without worrying about hurting her. Bella learns to remove her "shield", allowing Edward to read her thoughts for the first time, bringing the two of them closer to each other. Edward's daughter: Renesmee Cullen.
Renesmee Cullen is Edward's half- human half- vampire hybrid daughter, whom he fathered with Bella. When Edward first finds out that Bella is pregnant, he hates the baby for hurting Bella and wishes to abort it as soon as possible, but when it develops enough to have a mind for Edward to read, he hears that the baby already loves them both and does not intentionally want to hurt Bella.
In that moment, his hatred for his child vanishes and is replaced with deep newfound love. He is the one who delivers Renesmee during Bella's life-threatening labor. After she was born, Edward thinks of her as one of the most beautiful creatures he has ever seen, second to Bella. Although he finds it annoying to nickname his daughter "Nessie", he begins to adjust to it after hearing it in everyone's thoughts.
Edward puts his love for Renesmee on an equal level to his love for Bella. Renesmee, showing the opposite version of his power, can allow people to read her thoughts by touching them, though Edward's telepathy allows him to hear her thoughts from a distance.
He also seems content that Renesmee has inherited Bella's human eyes, which he comments as "beautiful". Two months later, Irina mistakes Renesmee for an immortal child and reports to the Volturi of the crime. Edward and Bella stay with Renesmee while the others set out to locate their friends to help witness in their favor. During their confrontation with the Volturi, Edward hears Renesmee's mind and realizes that Bella has decided to hand her to Jacob's care in order to help her escape.
This forces Edward to share a sad moment with his daughter before a potential battle commenced. This doesn't happen, however, and the three are able to live peaceful lives once again. After learning from half-vampire Nahuel that Renesmee will reach full maturity at the age of seven, his initial worry of his daughter's growth disappears. Edward's former rival: Jacob Black. Jacob Black is Edward's rival-turned-companion. In Twilight , they only interact at the end, though they are already unpleasant towards each other.
After changing into a " werewolf ", Jacob develops antagonistic feelings towards Edward because wolves and vampires are mortal enemies. This hatred was also due to the fact that they both developed romantic feelings for Bella. The only thing kept them from killing each other was the treaty that Carlisle made with Jacob's ancestor decades ago. Jacob eventually declares his feelings for Bella, becoming Edward's rival for her love. Although Edward never liked Jacob, he doesn't feel true hatred towards him, even when he sees Bella kissing Jacob, which is also the moment she realizes she has feelings for him as well.
When Bella tells Jacob that she had chosen Edward, Jacob's hatred for Edward reaches its peak while Edward regrets the pain that Jacob is in. They find common ground in their mutual hatred toward Bella's unborn baby, as both wish to kill it to save her. However, after Edward develops love for the child, Jacob feels betrayed and hurt. Edward later asks for Jacob's permission to change Bella into a vampire to save her, which he agrees moments before she went into life-threatening labor.
After Jacob unintentionally imprints on his newborn daughter, Renesmee, his hatred for Edward disappears, but Edward develops hatred and irritation for this incident. He eventually learns to accept that Jacob is made for his daughter. When the stand against the Volturi looks like it is going to turn into a fight, Edward says goodbye to Jacob, referring to him as his "son". The situation, however, doesn't turn violent, and by the end of book there is no longer any hostility between Edward and Jacob.
Edward's adoptive father: Carlisle Cullen. Carlisle Cullen is Edward's adoptive father and creator. He changed Edward into a vampire in during the second wave of the Spanish influenza, after the passing of his both parents. Edward was initially resentful of Carlisle for turning him into a monster, and used his compassion against him. After Esme joined their family, he left on his own and fed on humans, but a few years later, he developed guilt over his murders and returned to Carlisle and Esme.
Since then, Edward has learned to praise his father for his discipline and compassion for human and vampire beings, which allows him to sustain on animal blood rather than human. He always does his best to live up to Carlisle's expectations, even though he knows that he wouldn't be blamed for making a mistake. Edward considers Carlisle the best father anyone could ever have because of his kindness and generosity. He has also given Edward the love that he never received from his real father, who was physically and emotionally distant compared to Carlisle.
In New Moon , while Edward thought Bella was dead and went to the Volturi to get himself killed, he considered multiple options to provoke them, including killing in public.
But in the end, he decides to show himself to the humans during sunlight. Part of his decision comes from Carlisle's discipline. Edward's adoptive mother: Esme Cullen. Esme Cullen is Edward's adoptive mother.
Initially, they faked themselves as siblings. But after Esme and Carlisle fell in love, she became his mother. Since Edward's natural mother passed, Esme became his substitute.
Edward loves her from the bottom of his cold heart, and hates to cause her pain, for instance, when he leaves for Alaska to avoid Bella's compulsive scent. He finds hurting her inexcusable, because she is always generous, tender and soft. Esme admits to Bella that Edward means more to her than the rest of her "children", because he was her first son since she became a vampire, and is very thankful that he has found love in Bella.
She is also very supportive of their relationship. It's because he's much stronger than her, since he's a powerful vampire, and it wouldn't be safe. He was also concerned about his vampire instincts overpowering him, and he didn't want to drink her blood or kill her. Edward's character seems to worsen over the film franchise, but he still has a large fanbase who have a lot of questions about the vampiric talents he has specifically. Edward is described as being an incredibly fast vampire, more so than the rest of his clan.
It's hard to judge, but given that he ran from Forks to Port Angeles in around 20 minutes, he seems to be able to run well over miles per hour.
Twilight fans love Carlisle Cullen and have created memes , and he had a hand in Edward's transformation from a human to a vampire. Every vampire has a story of how they ended up this way, and Edward's is really interesting.
Carlisle saved Edward from dying from the Spanish flu in by giving him a venomous bite and letting him turn. Of course, people often ask what Edward's power is, since every vampire in Twilight seems to have something that is special about them. Edward is telepathic and can read other people's minds except Bella's, naturally.
This is definitely a good power for him to have, as it comes in very handy. Bella doesn't always do the right thing or make the right choices, but it seemed pretty inevitable that she would become a vampire. After all, she was always crazy in love with Edward, and they wanted to be together forever. Fans wonder how Edward make Bella a vampire. And instead of biting her, Edward put his venom in Bella's heart via a syringe as she began to die after having their baby Renesmee.
