Didyme was a vampire and Marcus' wife. She was Aro's sister, and used to be a member of the Volturi until Aro killed her. Her death greatly upset Marcus, who became apathetic afterwards. Didyme had the gift to make people happy, also known as the aura of happiness.

Early Life

Didyme was born several years after her brother Aro A decade and a half after Aro became a vampire, he personally transformed her into one; hoping she would show an extremely useful talent. However, her gift was simply to make those around her incredibly happy. This notwithstanding, Aro still planned to put such a power to use.

Because of the aura of happiness, many people fell in love with her. However, she only ever reciprocated those of Marcus, Aro's most trusted partner. The pair became incredibly happy together, and to such an end they no longer cared much about Aro's plans to gain control of the vampire world. After centuries with the Volturi, the pair made plans to leave. Aro pretended to give his blessing, and murdered Didyme so that Marcus would stay (his talent being more useful for Aro's cause).

After Didyme's death, Aro had Chelsea use her talents to force Marcus to feel loyalty to the Volturi, though he became a zombie-like being (similar to Bella in New Moon while without Edward), with no passion for anything. He never learned that Aro was behind Didyme's death. It is quite possible that Marcus' dull state is an effect of his withdrawal from Didyme's aura of happiness.
