Charles


 * For Esme's former husband, see Charles Evenson.

Charles is a Danish nomadic vampire. He first appeared in book three of Breaking Dawn, where he comes to Forks to witness for the Volturi; he did not agree with it and left shortly afterwards with his mate, Makenna.

Truth detection
"It is not what I see, but what I feel. Garrett said they have ways of knowing lies. I, too, know when I am hearing the truth, and when I am not."

- Charles determining the innocence of the Cullens

Charles has a talent for sensing if someone is telling the truth. Through this power, he learns that Cullens are telling the truth about Renesmee being half-human. This gift is similar to Maggie's ability to detect if someone is lying.
