      It was two decades, not centuries. I recommend getting the Twilight Saga official illustrated guide. It has some very interesting details and more in depth examinations of all the characters and settings. One notable detail I remember was that while Carlisle was staying with the Volturi, Aro was so curious about Carlisle’s lifestyle and his level of restraint that he had a profusely bleeding human body sent to the library where Carlisle was reading, just to see what would happen. Stuff like that really stood out to me, like no wonder Carlisle packed up and moved to the other side of the world.

      Carlisle was alone, so he decided to stay near the more "human" vampires he can found: the Volturis.
      When he understood that Aro & co. didn't hug the "veggie style", he left them and kept to train his self control about blood and his medicine studies

      Victoria and James were a couple; Laurent was only a "temporary travel mate".
      Victoria was changed in UK during the Victorian Age by her sister, who was a poor hore before to become an immortal. The girl wanted to protect Viky from men's cruelty. The Volturi destroyed Victoria's sister in order to bring Chelsea, another vampire who was gidted, by them side.
      Victoria was shocked and went in the USA, when she met James.
      James was changed by a "coat hunter" (a vampire in disguise) during the Gold Rush Age. Boh Victoria and James were gifted: she can hide her tracks and he was a great hunter; so they loved to play "hide and seek" 😅
      A few months earlier Twilight, the couple met Laurent, a nomad who came from New Orleans, and decided to hunt togheter. Late, they met Bella and the Cullens and we knowthe story 😉

      Eh. If she’s in his shadow it’s bc she wants to be, female vampires are pretty much just as strong as male vampires so it’s not like he can force her to be there. If she wanted to leave she could relatively easy. Pretty sure that’s how Siobhan became a vampire, a male vampire found her beautiful, kidnapped and turned her and wanted her to be his wife/slave, and then she killed him if I’m not mistaken. now the wives of aro and cauis are actually forced to stay with them.

    If Aro killed his own sister, I am sure he and the other Volturi did other horrible acts that would turn other vampires against him. Edward can see his thoughts and should have been able to release this information to the affected vampires. And each time Aro touches Edward's hand he would be reminded that Edward knows his secrets.

    Can ya do some videos on "What We Do In The Shadows".
    It's not a serious vampire story, but the characters are amazing (both from the movie and the series)
    My favourite is definitely Baron Afanas. When he was introduced, it was sooo fkin epic. The mannerisms, body movement, wacky liability filled behaviours and the looks. He was actually terrifying during his first and second appearance. A sadistic lunatic with old archaic ideas on vampires.
    Then we have the other morons Nandor, Laszlo, Nadja and that banana Colin Robinson.
    It's a funny show. Especially season 1 and 2. The movie was great.

      With frail skinny human-bat hybrid look. A real ancient vampire should look like that to me. It adds so much to his lore just by looks.
      I hope they turn him back to that look and have more episodes centred around him. Like how did he became a vampire? How was his life before he became one? Where did he came from? How many more vampires of his era still exist? Did he ever had an era of total dominion (something like the Volturi in Twilight). How old is he?
      So many unanswered questions about him.

      @@rickershomesteadahobbyfarm3291 I've watched all new 7 episodes of season 5. And if theres any new one (not yet for me), i would've already watched them. It's my only criticism of the show.
      Too little. The cast themselves have made fun of it. How it's basically the theme opening, then few minutes of content and then credits.
      I wish they make more than just 10 episodes per season and really explore the vampiric lore. The new season is pretty good though (nothing beats season 1 and 2 for me). But we see very little of The Baron and that's not good since many people including me loves his character.
      Spoilers coming below so stop reading now.
      Don't read anything below this if you haven't watched up to S5E7.
      (SPOILERS)
      (I've made it easy if you don't want to be spoiled. The choice is yours now)
      I kinda like how they went with Gizmos vampire beginnings. We still don't know why he couldn't turn to a full vampire but I have few hypothesis. The big one would be because he has Van Helsings tainted blood. The dark powers that changes one from mortal to a blood sucking creature of the night refuses to bind with the blood of a legendary vampire killer. And the fact that he himself has killed more than 100 vampires in such short time probably adds to that problem. [Ive finished season 5 and i was right about him having Van Helsing blood was the reason plus he didn't drink human blood. And when he did, he became a full vampire but then he was too nice to kill. Lol. Funny how his whole wish was just not for him]
      And depending on Laszlo for help in that matter is just idiotic (but he doesn't have a choice). Laszlo's so called "science" is as good as dancing and sacrificing livestocks for rain in our world, just nonsense. [He didn't even thought of the idea of giving Gizmo human blood....lololol] But that's the comedy. I thought Gizmo would never be a vampire tbh. Because nobody in the house would turn him. Nandor would have kept him as a slave for 500 years and then give him another stupid glitter portrait for "25 years of service". So yeah that's the best thing about season 5, how would this all end on episode 10? I think Nandor will find out and that's where it ends, on a cliffhanger....again.

While Shapeshifters are magical tribal humans who turn into Apex Predator Animals(Big Cats/Bears/Wolves).

He committed the ultimate betrayal. He can’t be trusted at all. What use is power if it can turn on you at any point? Two Uber gifted vamps are enough.

      Cauis is not gifted, but aro chose him to be his “brother” bc of his ambition and hunger for power, plus his sadism. Rlly aro only chose him bc he intrigued him. Caius’ “power” is like Laurent’s, he can “tell” who is powerful and he gravitates towards them. Caius is only “loyal” bc aro has power. If a coven, say the Olympic coven, were to usurp the Volturi, Caius would without hesitation seek to join the Olympians.
