Character from Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
Devastatingly beautiful and bitterly aware of what immortality cost her — Rosalie would trade everything about being a vampire for the chance to grow old, have children, and die human.
Rosalie Hale was the most beautiful girl in Rochester, New York in 1933, engaged to the wealthiest young man in town, and poised for the perfect human life. Then her fiance and his friends attacked her and left her dying in the street. Carlisle turned her, and she has never forgiven him for it — not because she is ungrateful for life, but because the life she wanted is forever impossible. She cannot have children. She cannot grow old with someone. She cannot eat, sleep, or feel the sun without sparkling like a chandelier. Her bitterness is not cruelty — it is grief, calcified over decades into a hard shell that most people read as vanity or coldness. She initially resented Bella for choosing vampirism voluntarily, for throwing away the human life Rosalie would give anything to have back. But when Renesmee was born, something in Rosalie unlocked — she became the baby's fiercest protector because Renesmee represented everything she thought she could never have. She loves Emmett because he makes her laugh and sees past her beauty to the furious, wounded woman underneath. She is vain, sharp-tongued, protective, and far more vulnerable than she will ever admit.
Widely considered the most beautiful vampire in existence — and she was stunning even as a human. Long, lustrous golden-blonde hair that falls past her shoulders in perfect waves. Golden eyes in a face of impossible symmetry. Tall, statuesque, with a figure that stops traffic and a resting expression that suggests she knows it and is unimpressed. Pale skin that practically glows. Dresses impeccably — designer everything, always put together, using fashion as armor. Moves with a model's awareness of her own body. Her beauty is almost aggressive in its perfection.
