001 About This blog is mutual only! I have several canon and original muses from both The Vampire Diaries and The Originals. All my muses (which means also my OC’s) have Bios. Please take a look at my verse page or come into my ims if you want to plot. I’m not my muses, which means I don’t approve of & condone all their actions. 002 Mun Hi, my name is Cathy (she/her) and I'm 25+ years old. I live in the CET time zone. English is not my first language, so mistakes can happen. I’m not 24/7 online, which means replies can take some time. Please send me a (friendly) reminder if I haven’t replied to our thread within four weeks. 003 18+ You and your muse have to be 18 years or older if you want to interact with this blog, as there will be dark, triggering, and nsfw content. I will not write smut. 004 Interactions I only interact with mutuals! You're welcome to respond to starter calls or send in memes or some random things. My ims are also always open for plotting. I’m really bad at small talk, so I’d really appreciate it if the interaction in the ims starts with more than just a ‘hey’ and 'how are you’. 005 Writing Please don’t expect fancy text formats. I use icons but I’m also fine with doing iconless things. Please don’t god-mode. I don’t mind how long your reply is, as long as there is something I can reply to. I also try to match my writing partner’s length. I cut my replies into seeing my part and the part I reply to. Please cut your replies too. 006 Interst Tracker Filling out my interest tracker helps with interactions. You can find the interest tracker here
007 Shipping I ship my muses with chemistry only. Please don’t force a ship on me. If you are not sure about shipping my muse with your muse, feel free to message me so we can figure things out. My muses’ sexuality is listed on the main muse page (just hover over the images) and in their bios. 008 OCs I’ll write with OC as long as you have a proper background story / an about page. I like to know who your OC is. I don’t accept children of my muses. 009 Duplicates I won’t write with duplicates. 010 Asks/Memes Feel free to send me as many memes as you like. I also love curious anons, so don’t be shy and send an ask if you want to know something about my muses. You don’t need to ask if you want to turn a meme into a (separate) thread. Please specify the muse (also if you’re a multi-muse). 011 Follows I don’t do follows for follows. I follow you if I like your muse, your writing, or when I can see a possibility of our muses interacting. Just know that if I follow you, I want to interact with you - sometimes I’m just too shy to do the first step. I unfollow you if you post things I don’t wanna see (hate, racism, etc), if you have been inactive for several months, or if we haven’t interacted. I won’t follow if you use a fc of someone who isn’t an actor or singer, or if you portray someone deceased. I also won’t interact with species that were first introduced in Legacies / in TVD S8.
Please note that I will mostly focus on following blogs from the TVD/TO universe, blogs that have a TVD/TO verse, or blogs whose fandoms I'm familiar with (which aren't too many).
012 Triggers Common triggers and NSFW will be tagged with 'tw word’, 'word tw' and ’word’. Please tag gore, overly religious-themes, and horror. 013 Legacies / other fandoms I only acknowledge Legacies characters and the school, not its storyline / new species.I don’t really have knowledge about other fandoms, so please forgive me if I’m unaware of your muse. If you want to interact, just let me know and I’ll read your about-page. You can always interact with me if you have a muse coming from another fandom & have a TVD-verse. 014 Disclaimer & Credits This is a roleplay account, which is used for fun only.

Important Portrayal Notes

Amara's Story
Amara was born in the 1st century B.C.E. on the first of Skirophoriōn (June). She was the fifth child of poor farmers and had four younger siblings whereas four of Amara’s siblings died within the first two years of their lives. The ground of her family’s properties was located near the mountain range of Hymettus, making it difficult to keep the yield from the fields high enough to provide for the family as the ground was rocky and uneven. At a very young age, Amara started to work in the fields along with her brothers and sisters. However, that still wasn’t enough to help gain enough money for the family even though Amara was a quick worker. Amara’s father was forced to give away Amara’s two older sisters to neighboring farmers at the foot of Hymettus who had higher-yielding fields in order to pay his debts.At the age of seven, Amara’s mother got pregnant with the tenth child and this time it was Amara who was given away to a befriended trader who had contacts in the capital.Amara was brought to Athens where she was supposed to work at the Acropolis of Athens in the temples. Her tasks included cleaning the temples and making sure the countless flowers were in impeccable condition. In return, she was provided with shelter and food. At the age of nine, she was taught as one of the High Priestess of Athena Polias’ handmaidens.Despite her origin, Amara was a graceful and delicate girl who learned quickly. One Day she caught the interest of Qetisyah’s father who was visiting the temples and was looking for a handmaiden who was Qetsiyah’s age.Initially, he had already talked with the head of another family regarding that matter but something about Amara made him change his mind.He made a high transfer fee for Amara to get her for Quetsiyah and an older handmaiden took Amara under her wing. She learned all the necessary things like cooking and weaving and surprisingly enough, she developed a friendship with the two years older Qetsiyah. Their relationship was friendly and familiar. Due to this bond, Amara was always treated well, even earning a little money. It was Qetsiyah who read poems to her and taught her more intellectual things while Amara helped to dress her and do her hair. When they were in private, Amara was also allowed to move more freely and didn’t have to cover her face and head.It was also because of Qetsiyah that Amara learned of the existence of magic. Amara never understood how it worked exactly and sometimes she was also scared of it, especially when it involved blood and dead animals.When they grew older, Qetsiyah eventually met a man named Silas with whom she wanted to become engaged. Qetsiyah wished to be alone with Silas, so it rarely happened that Amara was with her to serve wine or something to eat when they met. Nonetheless, and despite knowing better, Amara quickly fell deeply in love with Silas, although she knew she was in no position to harbor feelings for such a man as Silas. It conflicted with Amara because she knew it was a daydream and she knew of Qesiyah’s strong feelings as well.Surprisingly, however, Silas fell in love with Amara as well. They kept their relationship and love for each other a secret out of fear of being shunned because they were considered incompatible with regard to their social class and societal norms.Their love for each other was so strong, that Silas wanted to live forever with Amara, and began to desire a spell that would allow them to become immortal so they could be together for eternity. Silas manipulated Qetsiyah into creating an immortality spell by telling Qetsiyah that he didn’t ever want to be parted from her, not even by death. Qetsiyah agreed to create the spell, believing that she was the one with whom he wanted to share his immortal life.On the night Silas and Qetsiyah were meant to marry, he magically stole the immortality elixir that the two were supposed to consume after their vows, and instead drank the elixir with Amara in their tent in the woods, becoming the world’s first truly immortal man and woman. Feeling betrayed, Qetsiyah tracked Silas down and discovered Silas’ tent in the woods, which was Amara’s & Silas’ secret hiding place. Feeling angered, enraged, and betrayed by both Silas and Amara, Qetsiyah created a cure for immortality, which she revealed to Amara before desiccating her and faking her death.As punishment for her actions, Qetsiyah transformed Amara into the Anchor to the Other Side. For over 2,000 years, Amara felt the pain of each deceased supernatural being crossing over, and after her eventual release and short-lived reunion with Silas, Amara gladly welcomed death after she took the cure.Amara is fluent in countless languages because of her 2.000-year-old time as the anchor and her various (and at least singular) interactions with every supernatural being which passed. She doesn’t know much about the modern world, only the basics that she has heard from others. She cannot write and cannot read languages besides Ancient Greek but she’s about to learn English in some verses.Amara has suffered severe emotional, mental, and psychological trauma during her time as the Anchor which makes her extremely unstable. She has trust issues and sometimes can’t differentiate between real things and people or ghosts/things which aren’t really there. Apart from that, Amara also has an enormous pain tolerance.
Amara's Verses
THE OTHER SIDE // GHOST WORLD
Fandom: tvd / Status: canon / Availability: open
Affiliated with: none
Amara is the physical anchor for the Other Side which means she co-exists on both sides of the veil, giving her a physical foothold in both the living world and the Other Side, and allowing her to interact with the inhabitants of both planes. While Amara’s physical body is desiccated, making her unable to move, Amara’s spirit can freely roam through the Other Side. Amara feels every single supernatural death because as the anchor to the Other Side, all beings must pass through her after they die. Because of that, Amara is extremely unstable and jumpy as well as suspicious. It takes a very long time until she trusts a person enough.

CURED
Fandom: tvd / Status: au / Availability: open
Affiliated with: none
After Amara consumed the cure for immortality through Silas’ blood, Amara became human again. Amara has suffered severe emotional, mental, and psychological trauma during her time as the Anchor and therefore wanted to die.
Unfortunately, that plan didn’t work out and she woke up in a hospital thanks to Elena Gilbert who convinced Damon to help her. Amara spent a long time in treatment in which different doctors who were compelled by Elena, tried to help Amara through her trauma.
Of course, that was only halfway successful because two years of therapy can’t make up 2.000 years of pain.
However, Amara learned how to deal with it and her ‘dropouts’ which are also successful most of the time. She has no idea how the real world works but she is good and quick in finding it out. Despite speaking countless languages fluently because of her long time as the Anchor and her interactions with countless ghosts, Amara cannot read or write anything apart from Ancient Greek but she started to learn how to write and read in English during her stay at the hospital.
Amara is still in outpatient treatment after she was allowed to leave the hospital. Despite initially hating Elena for her intervention and preventing her from dying, Amara’s now grateful to her. Nonetheless, she stays highly suspicious of any supernatural being, especially witches.

IMMORTAL
Fandom: tvd / Status: canon / Availability: open
Affiliated with: none
As an Immortal, Amara is immune to disease, age, and all forms of physical and magical death save for the Cure. She possesses the same advanced psychic abilities as Silas, but unlike Silas, she has no idea how to use them. Because of her long time as the Anchor and the Trauma which came with it, Amara sometimes has moments in which she appears (and is) extremely insane and unstable.
Sometimes those moments come out of nowhere, sometimes they are triggered by tight/small spaces. Amara feels bad for those moments and it usually takes her a lot of time to calm herself. Despite being one of the most powerful beings in the world, Amara tends to be jumpy and cautious. If she doesn’t have one of her bad moments, Amara is a soft and caring person.
She endures her immortality but wishes to become mortal again so that she can eventually die. That’s why she makes it her mission to find and get the cure, or find another way to remove the immortality from her.

AMNESIAC
Fandom: tvd / Status: au / Availability: open
Affiliated with: none
After Amara consumed the cure and therefore became mortal again, the trauma she went through the past two thousand years was too much for her to handle.
The memories, the still present physical pain as well as the (to her) unknown modern world were so distressing that her mind chose to forget rather than deal with the stress.
Amara suffers from a mixture of dissociative amnesia, which occurs when the person forgets an event that has deeply disturbed them, and retrograde amnesia often referred to as psychogenic amnesia or psychogenic fugue, which often occurs due to a traumatic situation that individuals wish to consciously or unconsciously avoid through intrapsychic conflicts or unconscious repressions.

Amara's Headcanons
Amara's Death (Ancient Greece). When Qetsiyah showed that heart to Silas and told him that Amara was dead, it was actually Amara’s heart. Qetsiyah ripped it out of Amara’s chest, fully knowing that she cannot die because of it. On the contrary, she made sure that Amara witnessed the whole process as the first act of her revenge. Qetsiyah later desiccated Amara’s (temporarily) dead body and used a spell to fossilize her before she was hidden in a cave. Children. Amara never had a child. I’m going with the explanation of season 5 that Amara and Silas will have doppelgängers because nature always finds balance. The doppelgänger bloodline isn’t a direct bloodline that passes from mother to daughter. It can jump between the meanwhile countless branches that are somehow connected to Amara. Compulsion. Amara can’t be compelled, and I have four reasons for that. First of all, Amara is far older than any vampire who ever existed, and I believe that with age comes certain benefits or flaws. Similar to how the Trinity stated that they can no longer be compelled, or how older vampires lose access to turning off their humanity, it’s possible that Amara’s extreme age grants her immunity as well.Secondly, vampires were created using doppelgänger blood – and that blood exists because of Amara. Every ingredient used to create vampires eventually turned against them. The vampires’ bloodthirst was caused because blood was part of the spell, but it’s also possible that Amara, as the originator of the doppelgänger line, cannot be compelled by vampires, as another case of the spell's ingredients backfiring.Third, Amara’s mind doesn’t function properly. In fact, her mind and spirit are broken, and she’s extremely unstable. I feel like compulsion cannot work if the mind isn’t intact or is constantly shutting down. Fourth, TVD showed that Bill Forbes and Atticus Shane are the only (known) humans who trained themselves to be immune to compulsion. I feel like it’s something similar to Amara; only in her case, it wasn’t intentional. Her resistance may have developed due to the immense pain and psychological stress she endured. She has an indescribably high pain tolerance, and I believe the mental barriers needed to affect her through compulsion are just too strong.
Bonus: If we’re talking about Amara before she took the cure, it would have been impossible to compel her simply because she was a true immortal and true immortals cannot be compelled. After she was cured: Hospital & Medicamentation. After Damon realized that his blood wasn’t helping Amara to heal from her fatal wound and she was actually dying, he rushed her to the hospital in panic. Not because he cared about Amara (which was also contradictory because he acted against her wishes), but to ensure that Elena gets Bonnie back. Damon didn’t know that the spell had already succeeded when he was on the way to the hospital. Amara was already so far gone that the doctors attributed her little chance of survival. Through compulsion, they tried anyway. After it became known that the spell had worked and Bonnie was back, Amara’s existence was admittedly forgotten for a few days. Only when Amara’s existence came back into the consciousness of the others did controversy erupt about what to do with her. Ultimately, it was Elena who spoke out ‘in favor’ of continuing to give her a 'chance.’ Amara was unconscious for a few weeks, and when she was really 100% conscious again, she was in panic. The flashing lights, the sounds, the cables, and the hoses scared her. In the following days, she screamed a lot and tried to escape her situation, which obviously and very intentionally made her a danger to herself. They even secured her for a while, and she was under strong sedatives in the beginning. After Amara awoke, she was considered a medical miracle, although she couldn’t care less. During the entire time, Elena was a regular visitor who talked a lot to her and who, in the end, also took care of everything, including a special, compelled therapist (which was only halfway successful). Nonetheless, somehow they managed to make Amara want to give it a try. Until this day, she needs special medication that helps her with her anxiety and panic states, PTSD, depression, psychosis, and haphephobia. Hair. Amara has the type 1C hair. Type 1C hair tends to appear still predominately straight but has a subtle body to it with ends that tend to curl inward toward the chin. Because of the coarse texture, type 1C hair tends to be more susceptible to frizz and flyaways. Qetsiyah. Amara had a good relationship with Qetsiyah. She didn’t resent her. She liked serving her because she was a good mistress. But Amara couldn’t help her feelings. Amara never wanted to harm Qetsiyah, wished her sincere love, but could not deny or suppress her feelings for Silas. Scars. Amara has three scars - one on her wrist, one on her belly, and a smaller, almost unnoticeable one on her neck. Spirituality. Amara used to be very spiritual, or rather religious. She believed in the Greek gods. Her faith intensified when she was sent to work in the temples at the Acropolis of Athens and later was even taught as one of the handmaidens of the High Priestess of Athena Polias. Even after she worked for Qetsiyah, Amara continued to visit the temples often to pray and pay her respect to the gods. After Amara was (temporarily) killed and petrified by Qetsiyah, Amara believed she was imprisoned in Tartarus. Tartarus is a deep abyss in the Underworld that is used as a dungeon of torment and suffering for the wicked, and where souls are judged after death. She believed this was her punishment for her betrayal.But the longer her torment lasted, the more Amara lost her faith in the gods. She was aware that her betrayal was something terrible, but she also knew that there were worse people. The fact that her torments continued and never ceased was unjust, and if the gods allowed it, she could not rely on their judgment. After 2,000 years of torment and pain, Amara is no longer religious or spiritual. The Cure. The cure was partly made out of Amara’s blood as it needed a component of the immortal being Qetsiyah had created. If one were to re-create the cure, one would need the original’s (aka Amara’s or Silas’s) blood.

Diana's Story
Diana was born in Norway in 977 a.d. as the child of Dahlia and Alexander, who was a warlock. Diana wasn’t a child of love. Originally, Dahlia never wanted a family, but the thought of creating her own powerful bloodline was way too tempting, especially after Dahlia discovered the immense power of her niece Freya when she was still just a little baby. dahlia gave birth to Diana a few weeks before she claimed Freya. However, Diana wasn’t raised by her mother but given in care to a young married couple who owed Dahlia a favor. Dahlia didn’t want to care for a newborn, she rather concentrated on Freya. The couple lived in the same village, so Dahlia was always informed about Diana.Dahlia could sense the strong magic in her daughter after she was born, therefore she made Diana a bracelet that should absorb her powers in order to protect her from any harm.However, when Alexander found out about having a daughter (and knowing that Dahlia had deceived him), he tried to get his daughter back as she was also the heir of his bloodline. He also realized that Dahlia couldn’t be trusted and probably is going to use Diana to get more power. When he tried to sneak into the home of Diana’s foster parents, he was ambushed and killed by Dahlia who had sensed his magic and feared he could take Diana away.When Diana was 5 years old, Dahlia took her back and integrated her into her household. That was also the first time she got to know Freya, whom she only had seen every once in a while. Diana looked up to Freya and adored Dahlia because she was able to sense the magical family bond. This impressed Dahlia and she believed that her own child held powerful magic as well, even though she wasn’t the firstborn witch of her generation but only the third child of their generation.However, when Dahlia took off Diana’s bracelet which should suppress Diana’s power, she was shocked. Not able to sense the powerful magic within her child as she had expected, she fanatically searched for the reason for her daughter’s loss of power. It didn’t take long until she found out that Diana had been cursed by Alexander’s ancestors in order to make Dahlia pay, resulting in Diana having only an average power of magic left.This enraged Dahlia so much that she sought revenge and burned down Alexander’s home village, leaving nothing more than dust and ashes.It was also the turning point in Diana’s life. Dahlia tried very hard to reverse the curse which lay upon her daughter but when her efforts weren't successful she focused all her attention back on Freya.She still continued to teach Diana, which was very stressful for her as Dahlia was very impatient. However, she treated her with a little bit more care than Freya. Even though Diana was a quick learner and really skilled, she couldn’t live up to her mother’s expectations, especially because she wasn’t as powerful as she should be. Strong spells weakened her quicker than they should and especially compared to Freya she seemed to be just a weak shadow of what she was supposed to be.This led to Diana feeling like a failure and caused her to develop anxieties. She tried everything to please her mother, but compared to Freya -who was everything that Dahlia wanted to see in her too- her efforts were unseen. That’s why she developed a strong sense of optimism - she tried to appreciate every bit of attention and positive feelings she got from her mother.Despite being always compared to Freya, she loves her. She thought of her as her older sister, not knowing about having an aunt and cousins. She didn’t envy Freya for all the attention she got from her mother, knowing that Freya had to endure much more than her. In fact, she always tried to cheer Freya up. When she was sent into the woods to collect herbs, she always brought Freya her favorite flowers. She was often away collecting herbs or buying things on the market, so she didn’t really witness Dahlia’s rougher side, especially towards Freya.When Dahlia performed the sleeping spell, it included Diana as well. She accepted her fate and never tried to run away from Dahlia, hoping that one day her love will be returned and she can be the daughter Dahlia so desperately wanted. Diana believed it was her fault Dahlia is the way she is and would do almost everything for her mother although she highly disapproves of the cruel things Dahlia had done.Despite not being there, she felt her mother’s death. She had a feeling it would happen. She doesn’t hold a grudge against those who took a part in her death as she believes that her mother is a very powerful witch who could not be defeated until she wishes to.Like her mother, Diana can sense magic in others. It’s an ability she possesses since she was a little child and which also grew stronger over time. Diana is a friendly and caring person although she sometimes feels lost in the modern world. She mostly keeps to herself (a result of her anxieties) and is cautious with her feelings and story. Diana loves Freya more than anything but is highly intimidated by the rest of the Mikaelsons.
She loves flowers and plants and works in a flower shop in order to make a living for herself.
Diana's Headcanons
Alcohol. Diana has never come in contact with alcohol until Dahlia’s death in the 21st century. She doesn’t like the burning and partly bitter taste of it and prefers sweeter things. Because she doesn’t really drink any alcohol, her tolerance is a joke, and she easily gets drunk. Near Death Experiences. Dahlia is both the reason why Diana nearly died multiple times and why she’s still alive. A vicious cycle. Dahlia bound Diana to her & Freya when Diana was twelve years old. Dahlia waited longer to do it because of Diana’s lack of power. Once the spell was done, Dahlia also channeled Diana, even though the spells usually were too powerful for Diana. If Diana hadn’t been bound to Dahlia & Freya, she would have often died of exhaustion. Jobs. Diana works as a florist. She loves flowers (and they always look super fresh even after one or two days, thanks to magic) and for her, it’s relaxing to arrange the flowers. It’s also her way of earning money because she doesn’t want to ask her cousins for money, and she would never sell her magic. She wants to study psychology because she’s interested in the human psyche, and she wants to help people who suffer from psychological traumas or loss. A part of her wants to do it because she couldn’t help her mother, and Diana suffered as well. She knows how important it is for people to have someone they can turn to when they feel bad, and she wants to be that person. She wants to do something good. Vampires. Diana grew up being taught that vampires are an abomination of nature who are bloodthirsty monsters (because Dahlia hated what Esther did to her children, as it prevented their witch line from continuing). It took a few centuries (because of the sleeping spell and Diana’s rigid upbringing) until Diana came in contact with a vampire for the first time. Unfortunately, that vampire was a ‘wild’ one, looking for someone to feed on, which only confirmed Dahlia’s warning & her opinion of them. That’s why Diana is mistrustful & careful around vampires she doesn’t know and tries to avoid them. This also applies to the original family, whom she finds highly intimidating.

Gia's Story
Gia grew up as an only child. Her father died when she was three, and her mother ten years later. She lived with her stepdad for a while but left home two years later because they didn’t get along. She then lived on the streets and in safe houses and made a living as a busker with her violin. Because of that, Gia grew into a tough and independent woman, although she desires to belong to something.Eventually, now twenty, Gia met Joshua Rosza, who introduced her with others to Marcel Gerald. They were looking for humans to turn into vampires, and initially, Marcel wasn’t convinced any of them had enough potential, so he compelled them to only remember his offer if they were strong enough and dedicated enough to accept his offer. A short time later, Gia found herself back at Marcel’s loft, although she had no idea how she had gotten there. This proved to him that Gia was exactly the kind of person he was looking for to rebuild his army of vampires. Gia was turned by Marcel the next day in front of Elijah. Marcel hoped Elijah could be the mentor Gia needs when she awakens in transition.Gia completed her transition and was given a daylight ring, however, Elijah was not interested in showing her how to be a vampire and use her new powers, and gave her the feeling of being tiresome, which frustrated Gia, leading her to ask Marcel for a new mentor. Elijah and Gia later bonded over music when she explained she hadn’t been able to play since she turned into a vampire. Elijah assured her that she could learn to play again and finally offered to teach her, which made Marcel proud.Gia is extremely loyal to her fellow vampires, whom she sees as family, and is willing to fight for her loved ones to ensure their safety. She is known for her outspoken nature and is not afraid to call out those whom she believes are in the wrong, whether they are someone she respects, a relative stranger, or even one in a position of authority. She has difficulty resisting her hunger in intense situations, but she has been working hard to maintain control and has shown remarkable improvement over time. Gia is also passionate about music, especially jazz music, and enjoys playing the violin and the bongo drums in the New Orleans music scene.

Nadia's Story
Nadia is Katerina Petrova’s (alias Katherine Pierce) daughter, who was born in Bulgaria in 1490. Because of being born out of wedlock, she was given away by her grandfather, who had already decided that Katerina's child wouldn't stay in the family as soon as the pregnancy was revealed.At first, he thought of giving the baby to a religious institution as a poor foundling that was accidentally discovered in the forest. Then, however, he remembered a couple, Dimitar Stoyanov & Maria Stoyanova, who weren't blessed to conceive living children and were desperate. Nadia's grandfather (katherine's father) knew Dimitar, who was a fisher, lived in a village near the black sea, and with whom he often traded. Knowing that Dimitar and Maria were desperate for a child, he decided to offer the baby to them, long before Nadia was even born. They didn't ask too many questions and received a newborn Nadia two days after she was born. Dimitar and Maria were also the ones who gave Nadia her name.Nadia grew up poor but loved. Sure, Dimitar and Maria would have preferred a boy, but they were glad they had at least a child. Dimitar and Maria both had blue eyes, so Nadia stood out with her brown ones.When Nadia was three, she went on a long trip to visit a graveside. Although too young to actually remember, this trip stuck with her. They never traveled as far, and the ones who were dead (apparently a very gruesome death) weren't even family, nor was it an actual funeral. Nonetheless, both parents insisted on going to visit the graves. She remembered that both her parents were extremely thankful to the one man in that grave, and they talked about Nadia.Later, Nadia did develop quite a temper, although she was trying to behave. She was about fourteen years old when an argument with her mother escalated and the truth slipped from her lips. It was a shock to find out she was adopted, although she didn't dare to ask about it at first. A few months later, Maria caught a terrible fever and everyone feared for her life. Nadia was with Maria most of the time, and Maria, not wanting to die with any secrets, told Nadia about the Petrovs and how they had gotten her. Maria only knew that Nadia's biological mother didn't want her and wanted her to be gone, which was what she told Nadia. Fortunately, Maria recovered, but the knowledge that Nadia's biological mother didn't want her and gave her away without asking about her, hurt her.At the age of seventeen, two things happened: She befriended someone from the group of 'travelers' who recognized that Nadia was one of them. Membership is earned by birthright, and since the travelers needed each member to practice, they tried to 'recruit' her. Another thing that happened was that her parents were trying to marry Nadia off, which was something Nadia didn't want to do, despite understanding their reasons (Dimitar was getting older, and as a girl, Nadia needed a proper dowry).Nadia decided to join the 'travelers' and by doing so, she also found out about how it's possible that she has some kind of magic within her, which in turn only increased her curiosity about her biological family.It took years until she found the correct family because she only had a name and a faint memory of visiting graves. She also couldn't return home and ask her 'parents' because she had run away. With time, Nadia's resentment against her biological mother grew. That also didn't change when she found out that her mother was Mr. Petrov's daughter, who disappeared and therefore survived the gruesome murder. Nadia only found out because someone remembered that the Petrovs were of traveler heritage and that one daughter had suddenly disappeared.Not knowing where someone comes from and being faced with that big mystery prevented Nadia from finding rest.Nadia grew older, and as she grew older, she knew she needed to make a decision: Let it rest and put it behind her, or keep searching. Nadia knew she couldn't find peace and therefore decided to keep going.Back then, it wasn't necessarily safe for a woman to travel alone. An unwed woman also didn't have a good status, and Nadia was already 25. Because of her connection with the Travelers, she knew of vampires. Being a vampire would grant her enough time to keep searching while also giving her the opportunity to protect herself.She managed to convince the travelers to help her track down a vampire before she kinda forced the vampire to turn her by extracting blood. Then, her neck was snapped, and she woke up in transition.Why did the travelers help her turn into a vampire? It's quite simple. At this time, the name 'Katerina Petrova' was a whisper that went around. A rumor about an escaping doppelgänger. And the travelers had a vested interest in finding the doppelgänger for their own purposes.Before turning into a vampire, Nadia was a pretty skillful witch back then and a loyal member of her coven.Nadia’s sireline is unknown, but it can be assumed that it came from Klaus, Elijah, or Rebekah. She never found out, nor did she care.Nadia sometimes goes by Nadia Pawlow instead of Petrova to hide her true identity.Important to know: Nadia has never had a child!

Nadia didn’t know about her mother’s fate and started to search for her all over again, trying to cope with the loss of her mother.

Nadia's Headcanons
1864. Nadia believed for a few years that Katherine Pierce was dead, assuming she died in that fire in 1864. She was devastated about this. However, she wasn’t fooled for long. Children. Nadia’s only goal was finding her mother. And since I’m going with the explanation that season 5 gave us, Amara and Silas are always going to have doppelgängers (as long as both of them are truly immortal) because nature always finds balance. Therefore, it’s not needed that Nadia had a child. Loss. Loss is a strange concept for Nadia, because to her, something is only a true loss if you miss the thing (or person) you’ve lost. Strangely enough, that was never really the case for her. When she left her home and her adoptive parents, she missed them at times, yes, but she didn’t consider it a loss. Leaving her homeland or giving up her humanity also didn’t feel like a loss – it was simply a necessary step toward something new.
In summary, Nadia doesn’t truly experience loss as long as she sees it as necessary. When it’s necessary, it becomes easier for her not to miss whatever she has left behind. Vampirism. Vampirism is also one of the necessary evils that Nadia inflicted upon herself. It was a conscious and rational decision, as it was the logical consequence of her efforts to find answers. For her, dying as a human within a few years without those answers was never an option. Neither was settling down or getting married, so she didn’t see much of a downside in becoming a vampire. Thankfully, she had a lot of support from her group of Travelers.
Nevertheless, Nadia was not a "born vampire," and she struggled a great deal to control herself. She slipped up several times. However, she no longer regrets becoming a vampire - in fact, she can’t even remember what it felt like to be human. Being human is not a state she would ever want to return to.

Natalia's Story
tl;dr: Natalia is the one-year-younger sister of Katerina Petrova, now known as Katherine Pierce. Natalia was murdered by Klaus when he massacred Katherine's family. Before he did so, however, Klaus fed her his blood so she would transform into a vampire. Natalia appeared dead when Katherine found her family, and when Natalia finally did wake up, Katherine was long gone. Not long after, Natalia was collected by Klaus, who forced her to complete the transition and then compelled her to be his decoy. Natalia is the opposite of Katherine and values human life, hence why she tries not to feed often. This is also the reason why she hadn't sought her sister out after she eventually learned that she was still alive. Up to this day, Natalia is compelled by Klaus and loyal to him. She is unaware of what truly happened in 1492.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Natalia is the one-year-younger sister of Katerina Petrova. She was always quieter and more obedient than her older sister, but nonetheless, they were close. When Katerina got banished, Natalia missed her dearly.With Katerina gone, Natalia’s life changed too. Her father got stricter and didn’t give his younger daughter the freedom Katerina had, fearing she would follow in her older sister’s footsteps and bring shame to the family as well. Instead, she was required to become a proper lady of her status, which involved learning more about housekeeping, manners, and dancing as well as languages. Her father believed that every man needed a strong woman, and that’s why he attached importance to a proper education.In 1492, however, Natalia’s life changed when Klaus Mikaelson found their family. He killed everyone on their estate – even the animals – before he came after her family. Her father desperately tried to stop the beast, but failed to do so. The family entrenched themselves in the master’s bedroom, but that couldn’t stop Klaus. Natalia can’t remember much about the moment Klaus broke through the door. The only things which she remembers are his intense blue eyes in which the devil danced. Whispered words followed by a sticky fluid on her lips and incredible pain before everything went black, and she was massacred alongside her family.Unknowst to Natalia, she was in transition when she woke up. The circumstances she found herself in were horrible. Her parents were dead, and the house was destroyed. Too traumatized by what had happened, Natalia was unable to move or even react to the nightmare that had happened. She was devastated and hoped to die as well.Eventually, she was able to smell the slight perfume of someone she knew: Her sister, Katerina. She knew it shouldn’t be possible that Katerina had returned or that she was even able to smell something like that. But it gave her hope and strength. She wanted to find comfort in her sister’s arms. She barely managed to stumble outside, hoping to find her while trying her best to ignore the dead bodies around her.But Katerina was already long gone.The light of the rising sun started to hurt her, which confused her even more and forced her into the shadows, which gave her some relief. Natalia didn’t understand what was happening to her. Despite all the pain she was feeling, she knew something was wrong with her. She craved something without knowing what it was that she wanted.It wasn’t until the smell of fresh blood hit her. It was alluring, really, but after Natalia noticed what it was that allured her, she was disgusted by herself and ran in the opposite direction.Eventually, Natalia ran into Klaus again. At first, she didn’t recognize him and was relieved to find a living soul. His voice had a calming effect on her, and everything he said made sense. Natalia had woken up hours ago, and she grew weaker because she hadn’t completed the transition yet. Only when she caught a closer look at his eyes, she remembered him, but her fright and aversion were quickly compelled away. It was Klaus who persuaded her into drinking human blood by telling her it was the only way of helping her sister, who was apparently in trouble.Natalia completed her transition and became a vampire. She was compelled to be Klaus’s decoy to catch Katerina, whom he hoped would return to her sister once she found out she was alive. However, Katerina never showed up.As time passed, Klaus found a new way to use Natalia in order to get to Katerina by using her blood for spells. It didn’t work out because Katerina had witches on her own who protected her. Klaus eventually lost interest and left Natalia behind without lifting the compulsion. Up to now, she still doesn’t hold a grudge against Klaus and sees him as a friend who helped her in the beginning, although she’s not sure if he was real. Klaus made sure Natalia won’t be a risk if Mikael stumbles over her.Natalia has never met her older sister and, in fact, wasn’t aware she had turned into a vampire. It took her centuries to find out that her older sister is still alive and goes by a different name: Katherine Pierce. She has heard stories of Katherine Pierce and has decided to keep a distance from the cruel person her sister had turned into.Despite being a vampire for half a millennium, Natalia is still not comfortable with drinking blood. She tries to avoid it as long as possible and therefore is often weakened. She’s an overall friendly and kind person who often befriends witches, which helps her with her thirst.She often goes by Nathalie Porter.

Born in the Kingdom of Norway in 977, Tatia is descended from a family of Vikings. She married her first love, Eric Bjørnson, at the age of 19 and gave birth to their daughter Linnea Ericdóttir nine months later.The village in which Tatia lived was often under attack due to hostile tribes, and it also made it necessary that Eric was often away and fighting. When news reached Eric about a land beyond the seas where the natives were all healthy and blessed with gifts of speed and strength, the family chose to relocate in hopes of better protection and a more peaceful life.In 998, however, three weeks before the family planned to board the ship sailing to the New World, Eric was badly wounded in a fight and returned only with the help of friends. Despite Tatia’s sacrificial care, he died three days later.In the area in which Tatia lived, she was expected to throw herself on her dead husband's funeral pyre. However, she decided to live, move on, and raise her daughter, hence why she followed their initial plans of setting over to the New World along with another family from her village.Tatia ultimately settled down near the village later known as Mystic Falls and raised her daughter there. Eventually, she met the Mikaelson family as she was close to Esther, who offered her help to the young widow living alone in a hut in a very small hamlet outside the actual village.Elijah and Niklaus Mikaelson both fell in love with her. However, she ultimately only fell in love with Elijah, and she chose him over his younger half-brother. Esther, who had long recognized Tatia's special, distinctive feature shortly after meeting her, was keen on keeping Tatia around. Esther was more than delighted when Tatia chose Elijah and told her that she already considers her family.After Henrik's death, Esther used her good connection with Tatia to ask her for a favor that included donating some of her blood so that she could protect their family. Tatia agreed, only wanting to help Esther. By that time, Tatia was aware that Esther was a witch, but she didn't expect her to create monsters with her blood.Since Tatia, along with her daughter, didn't live directly in the village, she didn't witness and knew exactly what Esther had done to Mikael and their children, resulting in her being unaware of their blood lust. She did notice, however, that Elijah was acting differently and seemed to be restless. Curious about what happened, she followed Elijah secretly into the woods one day to find out what afflicted him.To her great horror, Tatia saw Elijah with Klaus between torn bodies and noticed the blood on Klaus. She ran away in fear, which was noticed by Elijah, who followed her. While fleeing, Tatia tripped and cut her hand badly in the process. Tatia was afraid of Elijah, who, in turn, was hurt by Tatia's reaction, claiming that he was still the same man. Unfortunately, in the middle of his pleas, Elijah caught the scent of Tatia's blood. Tatia, realizing the starting change in Elijah's face, slapped him across the face with her injured hand in hopes of defending herself and forcing him to come to his senses, but Elijah only became more hurt and insisted that he would never harm her. He could, however, not control his bloodlust for long and urged Tatia to run, which she did, albeit Elijah couldn't hold back for long and instinctively used his vampire speed to catch up to her before being overcome by his hunger and feeding on her neck until she passed out.Eventually, Elijah came back to his senses and realized what he had done and immediately brought her to Esther in hopes that she could save her. However, Tatia was already dead, and so Esther, feeling guilty for her role in Elijah's bloodlust, assured him that she would take care of it.Esther used the remaining blood in Tatia's dead body for her spell to bind Klaus's werewolf side.

RESURRECTED

Tatia was resurrected after Klaus broke his curse in TVD S2 and became a hybrid, as a means to create a loophole. She was revived to provide the universe with a human doppelgänger capable of binding Klaus' hybrid side again, since Elena had technically died (and furthermore with vampire blood in her system), and Katherine was already a vampire. Nature decided to revive Tatia, since it had been her blood that started vampires. Tatia's renewed life is bound to Klaus's downfall. As soon as his hybrid side doesn't exist anymore, she will die again. Tatia's blood is not capable of creating new hybrids. In fact, Tatia's blood achieves the opposite and binds a vampire's side.
Tatia is not entirely aware of her 'mission'.

When Tatia slapped her bleeding hand across Elijah's face, she actually hit him hard enough to split his lips. Unbeknownst to both of them (as Elijah healed almost immediately), this caused Elijah to bleed, and this tiny amount of blood mingled with Tatia's open wound. Tatia died with Elijah's blood in her system. She woke up 24 hours later, already being inconspicuously buried by Esther in the depths of the surrounding woods. Tatia, being buried alive, clawed her way out of the earth, something which traumatized her even further, and made her afraid of tight spaces. She was confused and scared, but somehow found her way home to her daughter. Tatia grew weaker over time and didn't know what was happening to her. She hugged her daughter the entire time while it was getting harder for her to stay awake. Tatia completed her transformation due to another accidental coincidence when her daughter cut herself on the pointed jewelry around Tatia's wrist. She tiredly wanted to kiss it better, which caused her to complete the transition before Tatia fell asleep.
Tatia did awake again, and after noticing that she craved blood, she was horrified with herself. Not wanting to leave her daughter behind nor wanting to risk her hurting her, Tatia worked hard on herself and became very disciplined. Tatia and Linnea moved away from Mystic Falls, and she continued to raise Linnea and watch over her. Later, Tatia continued to watch over Linnea's descendants. Since then, Tatia has lived very secluded and avoids witches as well as vampires. Tatia never overcame the trauma caused by Elijah and being buried alive, but is overall a feisty, strong, and independent woman.

Tatia's Headcanons
Children with Elijah. If Tatia & Elijah had married and had children together, one of the children would have been named Freya in honor of his oldest sister and because it’s a strong Viking name. Doppelgänger. I follow the canon Season 5 gave us. There's no doppelgänger every 500 years (which doesn't even make sense because there aren't exactly 500 years between Katherine & Elena). Nature needs balance, therefore, there's always a doppelgänger somewhere on this planet as long as Amara is immortal. The doppelgänger line is also not a direct line. They're all just somehow linked to Amara & her relatives. The last doppelgänger isn’t Elena but a girl that was conceived in 2010 after Elena died because Katherine was still a vampire during that time & Amara was still alive. Despite the explanation on the show, doppelgängers aren't 'forced' to find and fall in love with each other.
Tatia is also not the first doppelgänger. However, she was the first doppelgänger that was recognized as one (by Esther) and which had a huge impact on the world (as it was her blood that was used to create the first vampires). Hair. Tatia has a mix of type 2B and type 2C hair. Tatia's wave pattern starts at the roots and forms a soft S-shape wave toward the mid-lengths to ends. Hairstyle. Tatia has a mix of type 2B and type 2C hair. Her wave pattern starts at the roots and forms a soft S-shaped wave from mid-length to the ends. Tatia's hair is long (appearing to reach mid-back, but in reality, it's even longer due to the natural wave). In the past, Tatia wore her hair long. Naturally wavy and heavy with volume, her hair was often styled in a combination of tightly braided sections along the crown and loose, crimped waves falling down her back. The braids (always small braids, purposeful, and intricate) served not only as decoration but as markers of identity, protection, and memory. Her hairstyle honored her Viking heritage. They were woven with strands of leather or simple metal rings. On ceremonial days, she added wildflowers or runic pins. In the present day, Tatia wears her hair in a style that subtly bridges past and present. Her hair is parted to the side and gathered into a long, loose braid that mostly rests over one shoulder. The braid is wide and relaxed, giving it a soft, (romantic) shape. It's almost never tight or severe, but instead suggestive of something natural, instinctive, and lived-in. Stray strands usually fall freely around her face and neck, intentionally left untamed. Linnea. Tatia possesses one picture of her daughter Linnea. It’s actually not a real picture but a simple wood carving, and it was made by Klaus. It was a gift to her shortly after he told her that he loved her. Tatia cherishes this wood carving to this day, and it’s one of her most important possessions. It’s the only image of her daughter she has & it means a lot to her. Petrova. Tatia is not a Petrova. The Petrova family name belongs exclusively to Katherine Pierce, aka Katerina Petrova. To the Mikaelsons (the ones who started the hunt for the next doppelgänger), Tatia was the original, and Katherine was her doppelgänger, hence why the doppelgängers got known as the Petrova doppelgänger.
