IC Information;
Character Name; Caroline Forbes
Canon; The Vampire Diaries
Canon Point; 3x11 after Klaus heals her werewolf/hybrid bite
Age; 18
House; House Freya. No question. Caroline's life is driven by her relationships with others, good, bad, whatever. She's all about loving and being loved. She shows frustration when someone doesn't care for her and she's extremely loyal to those she loves, holding her relationships in high regard. She would do anything to help those she loves, including putting herself in danger.
Power; Energy Transfer.
Personality;
"Look, about Caroline, no matter what her flaws are, when push comes to shove, you’re going to want that girl on your side."
-Stefan Salvatore
Like every teenage girl, Caroline comes with her issues; she can be petty, immature, insecure, and jealous. She gets wrapped up in things that don't really matter to most when there are 'bigger things' happening. Outwardly, she seems sweet, peppy, in control but of course, some of that, later on, appears to only be skin deep. Caroline has a bit of a competitive streak too, especially where Elena is concerned. It feels like, to her, that she tried so hard, and yet, Elena doesn't have to try at all and she gets everything while making it seem so effortless. She can be gossip sometimes and has an uncanny ability to find out information from any source and fast. Her 'Little Miss Innocent' act comes in handy because she's good at providing a distraction on demand despite being a terrible liar.
She knows how shallow she is and she understands that this and her tendency to be a bitchy, control-freak are two very serious flaws. She very much wants to change and work on her flaws; she wants to be "abyss deep" and her "kiddie pool" level frustrates her. She's also admitted that at times, "I'm a terrible, awful person-but I'm working on it". She starts taking baby steps towards the grand understanding that it's not all about her.
But over all, Caroline is a fierce and loyal friend. Despite the bitchiness and the shallowness, she can be just as kind and caring and sweet. She's protective of her friends and is willing to take on whatever comes that keeps them safe. She saved Matt from dying, therefore exposing her secret and herself as a vampire because she loved him and couldn't stand by and watch him die. But she also puts a lot of stock in other people's loyalty, she expects it in return. When Tyler didn't help her and the rest of the vampire gang against the werewolves, after she helped him (which is risky considering a werewolf bite is deadly to a vampire) and kept his secret, Caroline told him they were done as friends, that their friendship was over. However she does forgive him because despite it all, she understands him and cares about him.
After Caroline is turned into vampire, her personality and neurotic quirks seem to go haywire, which is standard vampire fare. To quote her from the show, "[N]ow I'm an insecure, neurotic control freak... on crack?" Although at times, she seems to be a tad more mellow, taking more things in stride. It probably helps that becoming a vampire has made Caroline a lot more confident. (And Stefan seems to help keep her calm). Though she can definitely still be high-strung like before. And with all the vampire strength and 'live forever' factor, she's not 'girly Caroline' anymore, she can handle herself.
Unfortunately even as she starts to become a more accepting and understanding person herself, she doesn't get it back from the person she really loves, Matt. He rejects her once he finds out who she is and after a series of events they break up because of it. Heartbroken about being dumped for who she is, something she can't change, it pushes her back towards Tyler, who understands what it's like to be different 'against your will'. Tyler becomes the boy she loves, they have their ups and downs, but ultimately, he's the one who'd do anything for her, the one she'd run away with.
Caroline is still really good at the whole denying her true feelings thing as well as getting petty and jealous despite growing as a person since she was turned into a vampire. Caroline always seems to remain positive and strong despite the horrible things that happen to her (like being turned into a vampire, being rejected on all sides for being a vampire, for being kidnapped and tortured more than once). She's quite confident in her vampire-ness but she's always been confident in her own way. But even when her father tortures her for being a vampire, trying to torture the blood lust from her, she accepts that she cannot change, that she can't be changed but that she has a good grip on her need for blood, that the only time she screwed up was the first time she killed. And even though she liked it, it scared her enough for her to strive to never do it again. But despite appearances, it's a struggle every day.
As a vampire, Caroline gets the usual perks of living forever and never aging, she heals faster too. She's got super human strength, speed, and heightened senses. She's got the ability to control someone, remember certain things or forget them entirely (aka compelling). Because Caroline is a newer vampire and drinks animal blood, her ability to compel (as well as her physical strength) is less effective than older, stronger vampires. The only way to kill in the TVD-verse vampire is sunlight, a werewolf bite, fire, or a stake through the heart. Anything involving wood or the herb vervain is extremely painful and debilitating for a vampire. Caroline has a ring made by her best friend Bonnie, who is a witch, that allows her to go out in sunlight, but very few vampires have this thus helping her hide the fact that she is a vampire. Obviously these will all be different in the game but I thought I'd add them in just because.

Network Sample;
[Here, have a very peeved Caroline. She doesn't like being kidnapped. At all. Been there, done that but at least she's not in a cage or some sunlight tortue dungeon, and she's not being shot at. Her voice is deceptively sweet as it is firm.] Look, Klaus. I'm grateful for the whole saving my life thing but... I never said I was ready to go 'see the world' or anything.
And no matter what your twisted mind thinks, kidnapping is not romantic. [She's wrinkling her nose] And really? A themed hotel? Negative ten points for cheesiness.
Log Sample;
Like a lot of people, Caroline tried to imagine what death was like. You know dying of old age, walking towards the light, feeling that compulsion to stay but giving in and letting go. Was there even a light? Did you go to a place with endless shoe sales and puppies? Or was it just darkness, nothing? Okay, so she didn't think about that much. She dreamed about other things too, wondered about what he life would be like once she got out of high school, graduated. Maybe she'd marry Matt and he'd get a football scholarship and they could go to college together. They'd have babies, lots of them. Or maybe not. Either way the future used to be filled with endless possibilities. Now it was just plain endless. She wouldn't get any answers, thanks to the whole being dead thing. Which, she liked to point out whenever possible, was definitely not her fault or what she wanted. Stupid Katherine. Katherine had shattered her typical teenage since of immortality and replaced with the real deal.
But the thing that had kept her grounded was, well, it was a person really. It was Matt. And then he wanted nothing to do with her. If Caroline had figured out anything in her short life, it was that nothing happened theway you planned it to. And that wasn't the way she saw herself telling Matt what she was, what she is. Sure, she had expected him to freak out, to be scared, to ask questions, maybe to shout. Actually, his initial reaction was pretty much how she feared it would go but it was realistic right? She couldn't expect him just sit there and say 'Oh, okay, so you're a vampire. That's okay, that's hot, let's make out.' Although, that would've been just fine with her if it had gone that way. But it didn't.
This is too much. All of this is just too much. I don't want to know this…. You can make me forget. You've done it to me before…. Please make me forget, Caroline. I don't wanna look at you and see what I'm seeing right now.
Caroline thought she knew what heartbreak was but, really, until that moment, she had no idea. I don't wanna look at you and see what I'm seeing right now. Those words hurt the most, he saw her for what she really was, the thing she didn't want to see herself as. A monster. She was a monster. And no wooden bullet, vervain dipped dart could hurt worse than that realization. There was no humor in this, there was no cute joke to be made, no convincing him otherwise. Caroline wasn't going to get her vampy-Elena-Stefan-esque happy ending. Matt didn't want to love her for who she was. He didn't want to give it time, he wanted to be rid of the burden she laid upon him. And she couldn't blame him. As selfish as she was, as much as she had wanted that fairytale ending, she couldn't deny him his request, she couldn't say no as much as it hurt to do it.
So she made him forget. Forget the truth about who she was, who she'd be forever.
