**Inadu**, better known as **The Hollow** *(**Louisiana Creole**: Kre Nan Hun)*, was a powerful Native American witch that grew even more powerful in death, plaguing New Orleans as a spirit. She was summoned forth by Vincent Griffith many years ago and was served loyally by Eva Sinclair, who was corrupted by her influence. She was the main antagonist of the fourth and fifth seasons of *The Originals*.

She has since returned, taking advantage of the desperation felt by humans, werewolves, and witches who want to take down the Beast, Marcel Gerard, who ruled over New Orleans. After being freed from her prison, the Hollow sought power created from the sacrifice of young New Orleans witches, including Adam Folsom, Jack Mikaelson, Hope Mikaelson, Jax Salvatore, Nina Salvatore, and Lily Salvatore; however, she was unsuccessful in this attempt. The Hollow continued to crave more powerful sacrifices from beings created and tainted by powerful magic, including both Klaus and Marcel. Though she was unsuccessful in this attempt as well, she obtained enough power to physically materialize in the living world, eventually culminating in her resurrection.

According to Vincent, the Hollow is much older than the Ancestors and is one of "the most powerful witches in all of history". Following her original death, she obtained followers to perform her dark deeds. Since her resurrection, her followers claim that she is more powerful than the Ancestors.

Due to the death of her body, the Hollow, using her mastery over possession, inhabited Hope Mikaelson until her spirit was divided and separated into Finn, Elijah, Klaus, Kol, and Rebekah. Seven years later, Jack, Hope, Jax, Nina, and Lily removed the Hollow from their bodies and took her spirit back into their bodies. Ultimately her spirit and dark magic afflicted them, destroying them from the inside out. She was finally stopped when her spirit and magic was transferred into Scott Delgado and then killed by Hayley Marshall.

**Inadu** was a member of the **Labonair Family**.

## Early History

### 500 A.D.

Born to a tribe of Native American witches, the Elders bestowed her great power throughout her mother's pregnancy, in hopes of Inadu becoming a symbol of prosperity. However, when she was born, she only craved more power and killed members of her own tribe. Her tribe, fearful of her actions, sought to kill her.

Four of the tribe's strongest elders, each, imbued a part of their magic into a mighty ax before having Inadu's own mother kill her with the weapon. In her last moments, she cast a final spell, empowered by her own death, and created the werewolf curse and bound all those present to the full moon. This curse forced them to change into the very beasts that were used to hunt her down. This ultimately began the seven original bloodlines of werewolves with her mother being the first Crescent.

### 1953

Clusters of violent rituals take place in four different locations over the span of two months.

### 1992

Similar clusters of violent rituals occurred in a different location than prior years, this time in Algiers, Tremé, the Bayou and Marigny.

### 2014-2019

During this period of time, several witches, werewolves, and humans became involved with the Hollow, intending to perform sacrificial magic in its name.

## Personality

True to her title as "The Hollow", Inadu, as a mortal or spirit, is ruthless and only cares about gaining more power, and even killed members of her own tribe with a faint smirk at the destruction and death she was causing, showing a sadistic nature. She is shown to be vindictive as she cursed her tribe to become supernatural wolves upon the full moon. She is not biased toward those that she hurts or kills as she is willing to sacrifice any to gain power. Inadu is proficient at influencing and corrupting people by taking what is "dark" inside someone's heart and twisting it against them, regardless of the person's morality, to do her bidding. This was shown particularly shown when the morality of detective Kinney was corrupted into killing innocent people, seemingly without remorse.

## Physical Appearance

While alive, Inadu was an attractive young woman in her late teens. She had light olive skin, dark brown eyes and long wavy black hair that reached well past her shoulders.

In her spirit form, the Hollow appears as a bright ball of light, surrounded by a light blue color. As a shadow, it is a black mist in the shape of a presumed human, with claw-like hands and glowing blue eyes. As a shadow, her human form is shrouded in darkness, though has the appearance of a teenage girl. She also has a crescent moon birthmark on her left shoulder, which is opposite of the Labonair Family of the Crescent Wolves.

## Name

* **Inadu** comes from Native American origin, mean "snake" in Cherokee. It is a reference to her strange connection to snakes.
