The Twilight series is one that captured the hearts and minds of millions of people around the world. It follows the story of Bella Swan, as she moves to live with her dad and unexpectedly finds love. Of course it's not just a regular romance story, as it also follows the lives of vampires and werewolves.
The vampire family at the heart of this story is the Cullen family. Usually vampires are seen as creepy, old stories of people who drink blood and only come out at night. But that's not the case with the Cullens. This is a family that is incredibly good-looking, very talented and also fun to be around. That is, unless you are as accident prone as Bella. Then it starts to look a little more dangerous.
As Bella becomes a bigger part of their lives, we get to learn more about each member of the family. But the question is, how much do you remember about each of them? Do you know which vampire is strong? Which was engaged as a human? Or which one is from Texas? If you do, then this is the quiz for you. Let's see how you cope with this quiz on the Cullen clan.
What do the Cullens buy for Bella for her 18th birthday?
Bella is very different to most humans her age. She is clumsy, studious and hangs out with vampires. She is also notorious for her distaste for being the centre of attention in any way. This includes birthday parties and presents. However, the Cullens no longer get to celebrate birthdays with any meaning, because they have all stopped ageing. As a result, they are very excited that they get to celebrate Bella turning 18. Carlisle and Esme get her and Edward flight tickets to visit her mother in Phoenix, but what is the other birthday present that the Cullens buy for her?
Where did Alice and Jasper meet?
In many ways the Cullens seem like an impossibly close family, and it is easy to imagine that they have always been a unit. However, Alice and Jasper joined the Cullen family a couple of decades later than the rest of the siblings. Although Jasper sometimes found their way of life a little tricky, they fit right in. But before they joined the family, the two of them each had a while apart too. However, Alice knew that Jasper was her destiny and she knew exactly where to go to meet him. Where was it that she waited for him?
What is Jacob's nickname for Bella's daughter?
Jacob and Bella always had an inexplicable link. They were more than best friends and this feeling only got stronger as Bella's pregnancy developed. Having survived the birth, as well as the transformation process, Bella was amazed to see that Jacob had not left the house yet. Nor did he seem bothered about being surrounded by vampires. Instead he was being very protective of her daughter. It was then that she discovered that Jacob had in fact imprinted on her daughter, which made Bella very angry. But what made it worse was the nickname that Jacob had begun to use. What was that name?
Where was Carlisle born?
Carlisle is by far the eldest in the Cullen family. In fact he lived alone for centuries before he created his family. He spent a long time struggling with what he had become. It was in order to try to compensate for his new nature that Carlisle decided that he should be a vegetarian. It also led to his decision to study to become a doctor. He had to study only at night for many years, so that he could learn to control his thirst and instead use his powers to help people. But where was it that Carlisle's journey of discovery first began?
Who does Bella call for protection when she is pregnant?
The Cullens knew that Bella was very important to Edward from the start. Most of them were very welcoming of her and tried to make her feel comfortable. However not everyone felt quite as welcoming. Some of them felt that Bella being a human was too much of a hurdle to overcome. Yet somethings are bigger than personal relationships. For this reason Bella knew exactly who to turn to once she discovered that she was pregnant. She knew that there was one person who would do everything to protect her baby. Who was it that Bella trusted in her hour of need?
Who was born with the surname Masen?
It can be difficult to remember that the vampires had a life before when they were humans. This vampire was found by Carlisle, ill with Spanish influenza in Chicago. His mother, Mrs. Masen, was there with him, struggling with the same illness. When Carlisle treated them, his mother could see that Carlisle was special. She begged Carlisle to save her son in a way that other doctors couldn't. It wasn't something that Carlisle felt comfortable about, but he was very lonely. He had been contemplating trying to find a companion of some sort for decades. This seemed like the perfect opportunity.
Why do the Cullens consider the Denali clan to be family?
Vampires tend to be solitary creatures. This is mostly because their thirst is so strong that they revert to animal tendencies and cannot cohabit easily. Yet the Cullens are a solid family, and they know another clan in Denali, who they consider to be their own extended family. These three blonde sisters all shared the same mother, and have known the Cullens for many years. However it is not just their relative proximity that makes them feel close to the Cullens. They also share a habit that separates them from other vampires. What is the other reason why they consider themselves to be family?
Why do the Cullens leave Forks in New Moon?
In New Moon, Bella and Edward begin as a very close couple. Bella sees Edward as the center of her universe. But something soon happens that makes the Cullens decide to leave Forks. Bella is distraught. Edward is very careful to remove all signs of them, so that it is as if they were never there. This leaves Bella sometimes wondering if it was all just a dream. She is very upset and struggles to move on. However, she makes good friends with Jacob and he makes her feel human again. What is the reason for why the Cullens decided to leave Forks?
Which vampire is from Texas?
This vampire has many mannerisms of a southern gentleman. When he joined the Cullen family he had already been practicing vegetarianism for a while, although it is always a bit harder for him than the others in his family. However, he had always found the nature of being a vampire to be very tricky, because he can feel the emotions of his victims. It is a special ability and he is also able to control their emotions. This is very useful when Bella first started visiting their house, as he was always able to calm everyone down. Who is it?
Where does Bella run away to when she is fleeing James?
Once the Cullens realise that James is a tracker, they understand that Bella will have to run away. So that she doesn't endanger her father, Charlie, she decides to tell him that she has had a fight with Edward. Really he is upstairs, helping her to pack, but it is the best excuse that she can come up with. If she had realised how much this would make Charlie dislike and distrust Edward, she might have tried to come up with a better excuse. She also tries to set a false trail with Edward and Emmett, so that she can try to escape. But where does she really go to?
What is Bella's favourite book?
Bella is a quiet, studious girl. She is very clumsy and can't imagine partaking in any sports. Instead she tends to prefer to sit quietly and read a good book. Her favourite book is one that has many parallels to the story of her and Edward. It involves a romance story between two characters that keep being drawn together, despite their apparent differences. For Bella it is a story of how love can overcome any differences, but for Edward it is a story of how a monster can impact the life of an innocent girl. Which book is Bella's favourite?
Who accidentally attacks Paul when they are chasing Victoria?
During Eclipse, an uneasy alliance forms between the Cullen vampires and the Quileute wolves. They are still trying to follow the old pact, but they are struggling to follow all the rules and still chase Victoria. She is so good at evading them all that it almost feels as if she can see the border between them. In one chase, the wolves and vampires are both chasing her. One vampire aims for her, but in doing so crosses the border and slams into Paul. He isn’t the most understanding wolf at the best of times, so this causes a big issue. But who is the vampire who does this?
What does Edward give Alice so that she will babysit Bella?
Vampires have to hunt so that they can get enough sustenance. Even though the Cullens are vegetarian, they still need to hunt some animals. In order for this to happen, Edward has to sometimes leave Bella behind. However, he is very afraid that something bad will happen to her if he leaves her alone. In particular, he is worried about leaving her with the wolves, believing them to be young and lacking self-control. As a result, he decides to get Alice to babysit Bella. He knows that this will be a tricky task and that Bella will not be happy, so he has to give her a gift to do it. What does he get for her?
Which vampires made a pact with Ephraim Black?
The Quileutes have a long, proud family history, stretching back for generations. They have long become shapeshifters, in order to protect the pale-faces from the vampires. However, with an absence of vampires until recently, their lives as wolves had become a myth. Vampires and wolves seem like a fantastical tale, and many, including Jacob, think that it seems like old wives' tales rather than truth. Despite this, many at the reservation are still mistrustful of the Cullen family. In fact Ephraim Black, Jacob's grandfather and the last shapeshifter, made a pact to try to keep the peace. Who did he make the pact with?
Who became a vampire on their wedding day?
The Cullens lived in the same town as this vampire, when she was a human. She always resented the fact that they were more beautiful than her, until she became a vampire. Carlisle hoped that she would be a mate for Edward, but there was no attraction between them. Despite this, she was always a little bitter about the fact that he did not fancy her. This made her particularly cold towards Bella. But it is also because she is still a Cullen and puts her family first. She worries about the effect that Bella will have on their lives.
Where do the Cullens live?
Most vampires are nomadic, but the Cullens are not like regular vampires. They enjoy a much more regular life, thanks to their vegetarian lifestyle. However, something that they cannot avoid forever is the fact that they do not age. As such, the Cullen siblings tend to go to school and university, so that they seem younger and can then stay in the same town for more years. They often return to the same places that they particularly enjoy. Even though there is the presence of wolves and they have to follow a pact, this place in particular appeals to them because it is so overcast.
What game are the Cullens playing when James arrives?
Every family has their own traditions, and although the Cullens often seem otherworldly, in some ways they are just like any other family. But their tradition is that when it is going to be stormy, they go out and play a sport together. This puzzles Bella to start with, because she can't understand why they would want to go out when it is bad weather. However it turns out that they need the sound of thunder to cover the noise that they make while they play. It turns out that vampires running around and crashing into each other is a noisy event. But which game are they playing when James first crosses their path with Victoria and Laurent?
What is the name of the lawyer that Jasper does business with?
In Breaking Dawn, Bella and the Cullens feel worried by the idea of having to face the Volturi. They know that it is going to be dangerous and that they may lose their lives. In the face of this Alice and Jasper go missing, leaving the rest of the Cullens to feel even less optimistic. However Bella finds a clue left by Alice leading to a lawyer who can make false documents. She realises that this is her chance to save her daughter from the Volturi, especially as Jacob can take her. But what is the name of the lawyer that Bella visits?
Where was Alice created?
Most of the Cullens were created because they were going to lose their life as a human, so it was sort of a way of saving them. However Alice was changed in a bit of a different way, as she was not physically harmed at the time. In fact she was changed because James had caught her scent. A vampire was looking after her at the time and realised that she was not safe. He realised that the only chance that she had was to change her into a vampire too. He managed to hide her and sacrificed himself to save her. Where was she?
What is Carlisle's profession?
Carlisle is a very unusual vampire. He is very unhappy with the intrinsic nature of being a vampire and as such he does everything in his power to make up for it. He has been alive for many centuries and he has travelled extensively. During his long life he realised that there was something that he could do that would make a positive impact. He saw that as a vampire he has special skills. He is unbelievably fast and can notice far more than most people. He also has very steady hands and is very clever. What job does he decide to do to help people?
When Bella becomes a vampire, what is her special power?
As a human, Bella was incredibly clumsy and accident prone. She was also the only person in the world whose thoughts Edward could not read, which she found useful so that she could hide any embarrassing thoughts. It turned out that Jane was also unable to hurt her, as it was just a mental simulation of harm. When Bella becomes a vampire, she thinks that her special power is that she loves Edward so much, or that she has excellent self-control over her thirst. But when Kate comes to witness Renesmee, she realises what Bella's special power really is. What is it?
Where do Bella and Edward go for their honeymoon?
Bella always knew that Edward was her destiny and that they should be together. However, they had to overcome a lot of challenges and difficulties in order to finally be a family. Bella was very against marrying young, but for Edward it was a deal breaker. In return, Bella wanted to have a proper honeymoon. In the end, the whole family had a lot of fun with planning the honeymoon, and keeping the destination a secret from Bella. They even decided that Alice should be the one to pack for Bella. But where was it that Bella and Edward actually went on their honeymoon?
Who was engaged when they were human?
This human had it all. She was the most beautiful person in her town and everyone knew it. She also knew that she would be able to use her beauty to marry well. One day her mother sends her to her father's office with flowers, so that she can run into the son of a wealthy businessman. Sure enough he notices her and begins courting her. They get engaged and she is really happy, until she goes to visit her friend who has just had a son. At that point she realises that there is no love between her and her fiancé. Who is it that was engaged?
Who can see the future?
This vampire has a truly incredible talent which allows her to see the future. But it is not as simple as seeing something and it will happen. Every vision is based on actions that are happening at the moment. As such, although some aspects, such as the weather, are easy to predict, other things are much trickier. The Cullen family strongly rely on Alice so that she can see when danger is approaching. This is made a lot harder once the wolves come into play, as they cannot be seen. But which vampire is it who has this wondrous gift?
What did Jasper do before he was a vampire?
Jasper was changed into a vampire by a woman called Maria. It was during the time of the Southern Vampire wars, which went on for centuries and caused a lot of casualties. Maria was involved in the fighting and trying to create her own army. Jasper was riding his horse and Maria noticed him and thought that he might be able to help her once he was a vampire. She didn't even know about his powers of emotional control, although it turned out to be a very useful skill for taming and controlling her army of newborn vampires. But what did he do as a human?
What to the Cullens give to Bella once she has transformed?
Unusually for a vampire, Bella's transformation was planned a long time in advance. As such, the Cullen family had time to plan for what they would give her to welcome her to the family. They didn't realise that she would be pregnant, or that she would survive and have a beautiful, healthy daughter, but they do always enjoy special occasions. Although Bella did not want to age any more, it also happened to be a few days before her 19th birthday. The Cullen family decided to combine the two events and give Bella a very generous gift. What was it?
Why do the Cullens live in such a rainy town?
The town that the Cullens live in is the wettest place on their continent. Bella is very disappointed about this, as she originally loves the heat and sunshine and does not enjoy the cold and wet at all. It could not be more different to her hometown of Phoenix. She moves there simply to try to help her mother. However the Cullens could live anywhere in the world, yet they love the fact that it is so overcast and rainy. They chose to live in this town for that very reason. But why do they live in such a rainy town?
What is Bella's grandmother's name?
At the start of New Moon, Bella has a strange dream, which she thinks is more similar to a nightmare. In her dream, she is in the meadow with Edward and she is admiring him. Suddenly she sees her grandmother standing there. She is worried because it is a secret that Edward is a vampire, but she knows that her grandmother will realise. However, when she goes towards her grandmother, she sees that she is copying every action. Once she gets closer, she realises that it is not her grandmother; she is seeing herself in a mirror. She is old and Edward is still young. But what is her grandmother's name?
Who escaped James as a human before Bella?
James is a tracker. He first comes across the Cullen family when they are all playing a game during a storm. He is with Victoria and Laurent and they were just passing through when they caught the scent of other vampires. When they came to enquire, they saw Bella with them. James caught her scent and from that moment the hunt began for him. He was going to do everything he could to make sure that he could get Bella. He chased her across the country in his pursuit. In all his years, only one human had ever escaped him. Who was that human?
Who does Bella's mother marry?
Twilight began because Bella's mother, Renee, had married someone who played minor league baseball. This meant that he had to travel around the country for different games. Bella realised that her mother wanted to travel too, but never would because she did not want to leave Bella behind. Bella really was not a fan of Forks, and did not know her father very well, but she wanted her mother to be happy. For this reason she decided to go and live with her father instead, so that her mother could travel with her husband. What was the name of her husband?
Where do Edward and Bella have their first date?
The date begins without being a date. Bella is shopping with Angela and Jessica but goes to look for a book shop. On her way back she is followed by some men. It starts to take a more sinister turn as she gets lost and it is dark. She ends up on a road that stops as the men are coming towards her.

They go for dinner and begin to open up to each other. Where are they?
Who is Bella's maid of honour?
Originally Bella did not want to get married and even when she agrees, she is very reluctant to do anything fancy. In fact she hopes to be able to elope with Edward to Las Vegas. They are unable to go through with it though because this person is so disappointed with the idea. She loves special occasions and always enjoys celebrating with big parties. She is also very keen on fashion and is regularly annoyed with Bella's lack of interest. All of this makes her the perfect maid of honour and she throws a spectacular wedding. But who is it?
Who originally had the surname Evensen?
This vampire is very kind-hearted and full of love and compassion for everyone. She is always looking out for the others, who she sees as her children. She even cares for the wolves, even though they try to not enjoy her hospitality. But before she was a vampire, she was a regular girl. Despite the loving nature that she shares with the world, she had a very difficult end to her human life as she had recently lost a child. When Carlisle found her, he could not bear to leave her. Instead he changed her and they have been in love ever since. Who was an Evensen before she was a Cullen?
Where does Renesmee sleep?
Renesmee has a very special existence. Her life was incredibly improbable and no one is quite sure what to make of her. Once she is born she grows at a rapid rate, to the point that Carlisle measures her several times a day. She also learns very quickly, so she is able to walk and talk after just a few months. When she is born, Bella is undergoing her transformation and so she is not present for the first few days of her life. Once she is up and about again, she is delighted to see and hold her daughter, but she wonders, where does Renesmee sleep?
Which vampire does Charlie like best?
Charlie has great difficulty with the entrance of the Cullens in his life. He was delighted when Bella decided to move to live with him and he really enjoyed living with her.

He was a bit too good at it and found a vampire, who in turn changed Carlisle into one too. But Carlisle always struggled with the nature of being a vampire, as his father had taught him that it was wrong. What was his father's profession?
Who does Bella beat in an arm-wrestle as a newborn?
All vampires have super-human strength, but they are never as strong as when they have just been transformed. Although Bella had been told about this in advance, she did not really believe that it would be the case. Once she has been transformed, while she is still adapting to her new life, one vampire starts making a lot of jokes at her expense. In the end it is too much for her to take and she challenges him to an arm-wrestle. He is very strong and does not believe that she could really beat him, but she does. Who is it that she beats so unexpectedly?
Who doesn't agree with Bella becoming a vampire?
After Edward has returned to her life, Bella decides that becoming a vampire is the only way to stay safe.

Who was it who tried to attack her?
How did Emmett and Rosalie meet?
When Carlisle transformed Rosalie into a vampire, he had hoped that she might be a companion for Edward. Although her beauty usually means that every man loves her, Edward is not interested.
