Twilight’s Alec (Volturi) – Biography, History, & Character Information

• Name: Alec
• Type: Vampire
• Special Ability: Blocks the Senses

A member of the Volturi’s guards, Alec is able to block people’s senses. His extremely powerful gift can make people blind, deaf, and numb to any feeling if he wishes to. Unlike many of the vampires his gift is visible and it appears in the form of a clear hazy mist. We learn of Alec’s power in Breaking Dawn when he attempts to use it on the Cullen family’s gathered witnesses. However, the mist hit Bella’s ‘shield’ and went around it as Bella’s shield was a bubble protecting the people gathered. Alec did not retract his mist for the entire confrontation in the field as he constantly looked for holes or weak spots in Bella’s shield. Twin to Jane, Alec is nearly identical with the slightly darker hair and lips that aren’t quite as full.

Early History

The Volturi early on had spot the young human twins Jane and Alec and saw them as potential people to change. However, frightened humans threatened to burn the twins at the stake so Aro was forced to change them sooner then he wished to as he wanted them to be older.
