Changes: Corin

Revision as of 11:13, 4 May 2011

Corin is a female vampire member of the Volturi guard, whose first appearance was in the vampire index in the back of Breaking Dawn. Corin is also listed as not being mated. She is one of the nine permanent members of the Volturi guard and therefore wears their darker grey cloak.

When Corin was invited her to join Volturi she was already a vampire (leaving her creator). She became a member of the guard around the time Didyme was killed. Aro hoped that she could help Marcus recover to some degree from the loss of his wife, but when Marcus refused to accept Corin's gift to ease his pain, Aro found that her gift was more useful to console the Volturi wives.

Corin then spent most of her time associated with the Wives, and is also the reason why they never leave the Tower, as mentioned in Breaking Dawn.

Addictive contentment

Main article: Addictive contentment

Corin is gifted with the supernatural talent of inducing in others feelings of contentment for his or her situation. Her talent can be comparable to that of Didyme's "aura of happiness"; although rather than bringing out the positive feelings of happiness and joy, Corin instead brings out feelings of contentment, and ease, in a person despite his or her situation. There is a drug-like side-effect to her gift to those who experience it often, as they may begin to feel unwell and uneasy without it.

Although it is not explained whether this gift is mental or physical, by the way it works it may be assumed to be a more physical gift, working similarly to Jasper Hale's empathy.

Volturi

In the Volturi, Corin's main responsibility is to protect the wives Athenodora and Sulpicia. However, she doesn't guard them so much as ease them into complacency while other, more phyically imposing guards do the actual job of protecting the wives. The wives are so closely guarded that they have become virtual prisoners in Volterra. However, Corin's ability keeps them satisfied with life.

Aro also instructs Corin to use her gift on Chelsea, another high ranking member of the Volturi, making it near impossible for Chelsea to leave the Volturi, because of it's druglike side effects.

Though Marcus has repeatedly refused to allow Corin to relieve his pain over Didyme's murder, Caius frequently exposes him to Corin's gift between punishing expeditions and battles.

Aro uses Corin's gift on Chelsea over the course of the centuries thus making it effectively difficult for her to ever leave the Volturi in the future if she chooses to do so.
