Other: “shorter than [Jacob is] and not as beefy as Quil” (New Moon, pg 174). When he is in the werewolf state, he has dark silver fur and is more than five-times his size (New Moon, pg 325).
Description: Paul is noted for being ill tempered and quick to strike. One of the earliest examples of his temper is in New Moon, when Jacob describes to Bella how Paul was offended by something Quil had said, and nearly transformed into a wolf to attack. Only Sam is able to calm him down (New Moon, pg. 174). His temper is illustrated yet again when he learns that Jacob has revealed the truth about the pack to Bella. He instantly transforms and quickly crouches down, “ready to spring” (New Moon, pg. 325.)
