Character: Caroline Forbes
Series: The Vampire Diaries
Character Age: 17
Canon: Mystic Falls is a town that loves nostalgic trips a little too much. If it’s not the masquerade balls or events celebrating the founding families, it’s the sudden arrival of vampires for the first time since they were destroyed during the American Civil War. With them comes the werewolves and the witches to create a triad of problems. All of this is triggered by one seemingly normal girl’s existence, her vampire boyfriend, and her uncanny resemblance to his ex who, over a century prior, stayed with him in that same small town.
Caroline Forbes isn’t exactly normal “vampire” material-she’s peppy, does a lot of community service, and helps organize the nostalgia-inspired events that frequently occur in Mystic Falls. But given her tendency to have her fingers in too many pies, it’s not surprising she gains a supernatural edge, too. Caroline is aware of her dominant traits: she’s domineering, tactless, at times somewhat insensitive, but she’s always had a good heart. Her transformation has changed little-if anything, she’s twice the neurotic, rambling and anxious girl as ever. But being a new vampire isn’t easy in a place like Mystic Falls. She finds herself at odds with all her loved ones, and this position helps her become more self-aware as she tries to ignore her murderous urges so she can be there for her friends as they deal with possible sacrifices and their own monstrous changes. She struggles at holding it together, but she has no choice but to be the badass she needs to be. It’s hard to keep a level-head about these things, and it’s even more ironic that she’s landed that role; in the end, maybe it’s all an unconventional part of growing up.
Sample Post:
I do not appreciate waking up in a weird summer camp and suddenly told that what I need to do is help out a bunch of zombies. I don’t see why I have to listen to a toucan, especially since all I can think about are Fruit Loops and how I haven’t had them since I was a little kid. Thanks for bringing up the memories of how Mom cruelly ripped them away because she thought they had too much sugar. But you know what, Mr. Toucan? Toucan Sam was a lot cooler than you’ll ever be, so don’t think you can just give me orders because you’ve suddenly made me remember my childhood!-But fine, fly away! What do I care? I’ll just help these people out, because unlike you, I’m not heartless!
Anyway, hi! I’m Caroline. I’m pretty sure the last thing anyone wants or expects it to wake up undead in a summer camp, but that’s what happened! I’m gonna say this right now so it’s out of the way, but despite the strange after-life status, we don’t really have much in common. I’m strong and fast and you’re …. well, a little slow! Please, don’t take that as an insult. You’re probably just as strong as I am. Anyway, on to the confusing stuff …
So you’ve all probably got some weird urges right? No one really wakes up and just wants blood-uh, I mean, brains! Blood … brains … same thing! They both start with a B! But right, so you want some brains. I don’t really know how you’re gonna get any, because you can’t really just go to your local camp hospital and steal some. But maybe they keep cow brains here! I can’t promise they’ll taste as good as people-brains, but … oh, don’t look mad about that. Maybe in a couple hundred years they’ll start doing brain-transplants and you’ll be able to get some that way! Or maybe there’s a nearby graveyard with a weird, creepy guy in charge willing to hook you up. But I’m sorry … I already said I don’t really know how this works for zombies.
What I do know for sure is that things aren’t gonna be easy from here on out. Your friends probably grew up on strange horror movies, so they’re all gonna be afraid of you. It sucks. But the best I can recommend is remember that you’re a badass. Who cares what you look like or all you can get out is braaaaains? You’ve got a second chance! You’ve got a life to live. And maybe the stupid, bossy toucans will teach you some of that mind-stuff so you can talk to people!
So just take it from me. Okay, I might’ve woken up as a vampire a while ago and then had a crazy life after that and now I’m taking orders from really annoying birds, but I’m just rolling with it. You guys should, too! Just, you know, not literally. I wouldn’t want you to fall apart before you start!
