the Twilight Connection

“I bet she’s tougher than that. She runs with vampires.“

-Embry Call, New Moon

Embry Call is a teenage shapeshifter from La Push and is one of Jacob’s “wingmen”. He appears briefly in New Moon and Eclipse. Embry calls Bella Swan “vampire girl’ because she hangs out with the Cullen’s coven. His mother was not a woman from the tribe, but because the shapeshifting traits are inherited only within the tribe, he is probably the half brother of Quil Ateara, Jacob Black, or Sam Uley, which causes some stress within the pack due to the fact that all of their fathers were married before, during and after Embry’s birth. Some time during his early life, Embry became friends with Quil Ateara and Jacob Black. Sometime later, Embry went through the change and became a wolf like the other boys in the La Push “gang.” He was the fourth to transform, right before Jacobs, and since he couldnt tell Jacob what was happening to him, he started avoiding Jacob. Once Jacob changed, they went back to being friends. Embry remains one of Jacobs best friends though the rest of the book, in spite of the way he breaks the rules and hangs out with Bella more than he should. Embry is quieter and more shy than some of the other boys on the Reservation. He is playful, but still come across as being more reserved. As a human, Embry is described as being tall and slender, having red brown skin, long rounded muscles, cropped black hair, and brown eyes. As a wolf, he is described as having grey fur with black spots, thinner than Quil, and being swift.
