Stefan’s usual diet consists only of animal blood. (How very Twilight of him.) Most of the time, Stefan can’t help but do the right thing — a choirboy act that puts him at odds with bad boy older brother Damon.
He’s also ridiculously devoted to his girlfriend Elena. Stefan seems to have spent the last few years reconstructing her family tree and studying all things Elena Gilbert. He also anonymously saved Elena from the car accident that killed her parents. Let’s face it, if Stefan weren’t so flippin’ cute, we’d find this all a little creepy.
But Stefan wasn’t always such a boy scout. Turning vamp really brought out his cranky side. Basically, Stefan was the 1864 version of Damon, and vice versa. The real reason Stefan is a humanitarian (a.k.a., only eats bunnies and such) is because people blood makes him into kind of a monster. (Which is exactly the way Original Vampire Klaus prefers him, as “The Ripper.”)
Fast Facts:
- The first person Stefan fed on was his father Guiseppe Salvatore.
- Born in Mystic Falls on November 5, 1847, Stefan is a 162-year-old Gemini.
- Stefan’s not as strong as his brother, but he’s still got a few tricks up his sleeve. S is a crazy-fast runner, can influence people’s memories, and has an acute sense of hearing.
