Jane is a fictional antagonist of the Twilight Saga. [1]
Biography
Jane is a sadistic guard of the Volturi and a pet of Aro's. She seems rather bitter and easily justifies inflicting pain on anyone with her power. Jane has a twin brother named Alec and they both reside in Volterra, Italy.
History
The Volturi had their eyes on Jane and Alec as potential people to change back when they were still human, but were waiting until they were older to change them. When frightened humans threatened to burn the twins at the stake, Aro was forced to change them while they were still young. Jane has since become one of the prize members of the Volturi Guard and is one of their highest ranking guards.
Personality and Traits
Special talents
Jane creates an illusion of pain. One who she attacks feels excruciating pain, but the pain does not truly affect their body in any way. Jane is in actuality, controlling responses in the brain to fool one into thinking he or she is feeling pain. Like other vampires with powers that affect the mind, her power does nothing to Bella, regarded by the Volturi as a "shield". Jane often uses her power when the Volturi exercise their right to punish vampires. Jane accompanied the Volturi when they went to destroy the Cullens. While the Aro and Caius "discussed" Renesmee's threat to the vampire world, she tried to attack Carlisle and Edward with her powers, but Bella blocked her before she reached either of them. This infuriated Jane and she tried several times to inflict pain on Edward, but her power had no effect with Bella's nullifying shield in place.
Physical description
Jane is slight with short, pale brown hair. She has a rather slim and androgynous figure. She has an angelic face, which is the only thing that keeps her from being mistaken for a boy. She has wide eyes, full lips, and a childlike voice. Her eyes are red/black. Along with her face being angelic, it is also described as being fiercely childlike.
For the upcoming film adaptation of New Moon, Dakota Fanning is in talks to play Jane. For the time being it is unknown if Fanning has accepted the offer.[1]
Portrayal
As of February 2, 2009, Jane's most likely actor that will be portraying her will be Dakota Fanning. There has been no confirmation concerning this, but the producers have offered her the job, and she says that she, "would love to play the part".[2] Actress Lucy Hale said that she had also auditioned for the role of Jane, but said that the part was currently being offered to Dakota Fanning.[3]
