I'm adding a personality and traits section, because I think it is important in articles about people and characters. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't delete it! I don't mind if you edit it, but PLEASE don't delete it unless you have a VERY good reason (please state reason here if you do). Princess Rebel (talk) 08:09, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Stregoni Benefici
Whoever keep removing the part about how Stregoni Benefici is Carlisle's other name....STOP! It's getting really annoying. If you would like proof, see this and search for Carlisle Cullen. It is a website monitered by Stephenie Meyer, so the source is reliable. Thanks ~ Bella   Swan  23:51, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

Um, WHERE does it mention Stregoni Benefici? It doesn't mention that at all, and it hasn't been mentioned on Stephenie Meyer's official website either. I hate to admit it, but Stephenie Meyer's website is much more reliable than the Twilight Lexicon, which is a fansite despite being endorsed by Stephenie Meyer, who might easily have missed the error, and therefore I conclude that Stregoni Benefici is fanon. If you don't believe me that Meyer has never mentioned Benefici, see this. Princess Rebel (talk) 13:12, 8 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Stregoni Benefici is mentioned in Twilight when Bella is researching vampires. The Personal Correspondence sections on the Lexicon (like this one) are questions that have been directly answered by Stephenie herself. It's no more unreliable than using an interview with her or a Q&A from a signing as a source. She has obviously not mentioned everything that could possibly be told about Twilight on her official website, so not having it on there does not make it not true. In fact, she directs people to the Lexicon if they have a question that is not answered on her site (here). Andrea  ( talk ) 14:18, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

It's still disputed. It says that Carlisle made up the myth of Stregoni Benefici (and thank you, Andrea, for making a much clearer link, I was having trouble navigating through the Twilight Lexicon) but that doesn't neccisarily mean that it is his alias, does it?

 * Glad to help. But I think the words "Stregoni benefici–that would be CARLISLE, my dear friend" are pretty clear. ;) Andrea  ( talk ) 23:34, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

True, true. I accept defeat. Princess Rebel (talk) 12:55, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Stregoni Benefici is mention in Twilight when Bella researched Vampire on the net, and Carlisle did NOT make it up. Don't believe me?? READ THE BOOK. (by a major fan.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.64.103.178 (talk) 01:47, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Cullen Money
It is established that the Cullens have a lot of money, due to the fact that Carlisle is a high-pay doctor and Alice can predict trends on the stock market, thus setting up highly profitable investments in that area. But is the money all Carlisle's, as he's the breadwinner and leader of the coven? Does he give the others "pocket money"? Did he buy his children all their cars? Are they all under his name?

It is quite confusing, can someone please clarify? Andrea? Princess Rebel (talk) 13:01, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I would say that yes, he does share his money with his 'children'. He is known for his compassion, and I think it would be entierly out of his character to keep all the money for himself. As for the cars, I would assume that at least some of the money came from him, but there is no real source saying with who's money the cars were bought, so we can't really know for sure. ~ Bella   Swan ? 11:19, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for that. I knew he wouldn't hoard all the money for himself, Stephenie would save that kind of moronic behaviour for the less likeable characters of the story. I guess we'll never find out about the cars, huh? Princess Rebel (talk) 11:56, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
