"You missed the party. Princess theme. She made me wear a crown, and then Emily suggested they all try out her new play makeup on me."
Quil Ateara V on Claire’s party.[src]

Claire Young is the niece of Emily Young, the cousin of Seth and Leah Clearwater, and was imprinted on by Quil Ateara V. She is a member of the Makah tribe and lives on the Makah reservation.

Biography

Eclipse

In Eclipse, two-year-old Claire and her sister were down from the Makah reservation visiting their aunt, Emily Young, when Claire was imprinted upon by Quil. Quil acts like an older brother and a close friend to her, foreshadowing his possible romantic feelings when she's old enough to reciprocate, not unlike the imprinted relationship existing between Sam Uley and Emily.[1]

Breaking Dawn

Claire makes a brief appearance in Breaking Dawn with Quil, playing on First Beach, right after her birthday party. It is obvious that she and Quil enjoy each other's company. She and her sister are the only nieces of Emily Young.

She also makes a brief appearance in the movie adaptation with Quil and the other wolves on First Beach, though her face is not shown.

Plot importance
