**Dr. Alexandria "Alex" Marie Salvatore Gilbert-Mikaelson** (born **Daniella Labonair**) is the lead female protagonist in *Legacies*. At the beginning of the series, Alex appears to be a regular human girl but is then revealed to be a Petrova doppelgänger and a witch. In Season Two, she becomes the world's first Tribrid in *The Sun Also Rises*.

Alex was born in New Orleans with her twin into one of the two ruling families of the Crescent Wolf Clan. Her maternal aunt and uncle are killed by Richard Xavier Dumas. Marcel Gerard was able to get her and her twin out of town quickly as possible after they were born. She and Elena Gilbert were adopted by a family of hunters who loved them no matter what.

Alex had been struggling to live a normal life ever since her adoptive parents, Miranda Sommers-Gilbert and Grayson Gilbert, died in a car accident when she and her twin, Elena was 16 years old. Her life also changed drastically as she and her friends are caught up in the supernatural world that surrounds them and are forced to face powerful supernatural enemies.

Alex is best friends with her twin sister Elena Gilbert; Bonnie Bennett; Caroline Forbes; her older half-sister Arielle Labonair, Hayley Marshall; Rebekah Mikaelson; Freya Mikaelson; Kol Mikaelson; Elijah Mikaelson; Katherine Pierce; Tyler Lockwood; and Damon Salvatore. She was also very close with her late husband, Stefan Salvatore. She used to be close to Matt Donovan but she doesn't trust him like she used to do.

Alex is the mother of the first naturally born tribrid, Hope Mikaelson, the daughter she had with the Original Hybrid, Niklaus Mikaelson as well as Miranda, Jenna, and Nik Mikaelson. She was also the wife of Jackson Kenner and is the alpha of the Crescent Wolf Pack. She is also the mother of Jax, Nina, and Lily Salvatore with her late husband, Stefan. She also adopted Adella Mikaelson with the help of her husband, Klaus. She is currently pregnant with her eighth child.

As a "human", she was the sociable popular girl in school and the girl next door alongside her twin. She's compassionate, caring, empathetic, kind, intelligent, beautiful, friendly but she can also be pushy, bitchy, selfish, she is also athletic and was a cheerleader. Alex's dark side is her "deep, deep connection to other people". She's always helping around in her community events and Caroline called her the mothering type. Like her mother before her, Alex believes in family, honor, loyalty and community. She is brave and self-sacrificing, though much of her willingness to save others seems to come from survivor's guilt over her parent's death. She has a strong backbone and never displays a sense of inferiority. Alex exalts personal choice and is known for her forgiving nature. Before her parents' death, Alex used to be "way more fun" and "into everything, very busy".​

**Alex** is a member of the **Gilbert Family**, **Petrova Family**, **Labonair Family**, by marriage **Mikaelson Family**, she has ties to the **Salvatore Family**. Alex is by birthright the alpha of the **Crescent Wolf Pack**. She is also the leader of both the **Divine Coven** and **Trinity Coven** until her kids are old enough to take over. In her past life she was Alina the first Old One.

## Throughout The Vampire Diaries

In season one of *The Vampire Diaries*, Alex was still coping with her parents' death with her sister when she meets a mysterious new student at Mystic Falls High School, Stefan Salvatore. Alex and Stefan fall in love with each other. However, not long after that, Alex discovers that both Stefan and his brother, Damon, are vampires. She also becomes aware of the existence of Katherine Pierce, the woman who turned the Salvatore brothers into vampires in 1864, and to whom Alex and Elena bears a striking physical resemblance. In the process, Alex discovers a shocking truth - she and her sister were adopted, and their real parents are John Gilbert, her "uncle", and Isobel Flemming, Alaric's wife.

In season two of *The Vampire Diaries*, Alex learns that she and Elena are Katherine's Doppelgänger, which explains their identical appearance. Because of this, an Original Vampire, Klaus, wants to use her and Elena in a sacrifice to break an ancient curse. Despite Alex's and her friends' best efforts, the sacrifice takes place. She also learns about a thousand year old prophecy. Klaus fed Alex his blood, not knowing she already had vampire blood in her system making her the first Tribrid to walk the earth.

In season three of *The Vampire Diaries*, Alex is coping with the fact that everyone she loves dies and she couldn't do anything about it. She also learns how to be a vampire with the help of Klaus and his other sister, Rebekah Mikaelson.

After Jeremy's death in Season Four of *The Vampire Diaries*, Alex did black magic to try and bring her brother back to life, but it back fired turning her into her dark self. Weeks went by as she fooled her friends that she was back to her old self but she was planning something evil. When torturing Damon and Elena, Stefan came up behind her and made her inhale herbs that knocked her out. Stefan went inside her head and made the good Alex fight her dark self, telling her that being strong doesn't mean being evil.

In season eight of *The Vampire Diaries*, Alex and Stefan are once again together, without Klaus and the Mikaelson family. She moves into the Salvatore Boarding House with her kids living their part-time and the other time with their grandfather. Later that day Stefan proposes to Alex and tells her how much he loves her and she said yes. Later into the series, Stefan agreed to work with Cade, the devil in order to get Hope, Josie, Lily, and Lia back. Towards the end, Alex marries a human Stefan.

While Alex is in New Orleans with Hayley Marshall who is her best friend who later finds out that they're cousins by Alex's older half-sister, Arielle Labonair. It's later revealed that Alex's childhood friend Tyler Lockwood told Alex that the baby she carries can turn werewolves into hybrids. He then tells to Alex that Klaus will use the baby blood to reform a hybrid army and he has to till the baby before. Alex soon discovers a bible which someone left for her to find and in this bible is Alex's family tree. Through this family tree Alex discovers that her birth name is Daniella Labonair and that Elena's birth name is Gabriella Labonair, she also learns that Hayley and she are related. Later into the season, Alex meets her husband to be, Jackson Kenner and her older half-sister and they tell her about what the Crescent Pack.

Alex dies and the witches leave with the baby.

In season two of *The Originals*, Alex has been in her wolf form most days leaving the other to do what they do. Alex couldn't stop the fact that she misses her baby and would do anything to get her back. At the beginning of the season Alex finds out more about the Crescent Pack and how she can free her pack from the witches. She finds out that she has to marry Jackson in order to free the pack and she agrees to do so. Klaus tells Alex that they can visit their daughter and they go and sees her. The next day Alex does a spell to bring back Katherine Pierce. In the middle of the season, Jackson and Alex get married to free their pack. Alex also learns that there is a new threat of her daughter, Esther Mikaelson's sister, Dahlia.

Soon Alex is reunited with her children, but their reunion is bittersweet and Alex informs her children that Roman was, in fact, her kidnapper. Alex tells her children how much they're loved and because they're special, that to make sure other people don't snuff out there light. Alex then offers to be bound first with the Tribrid Curse, giving the kids a better chance of being found and rescued by Klaus. After killing the witch, Alex tells her children to go without her, but Greta uses the kid's hesitation to knock them out with sleeping powder. Alex is pinned to a wall by Greta and, in a rush of adrenaline, Alex wrenches free and leaps for Greta, tearing off her finger which holds the daylight ring. They burst through the doors and fall together in the sunlight and both instantly burst into flames as Klaus looks on and screams at the sight of Alex's burning corpse. Towards the end of the series she and Stefan see the kids have appeared in the afterlife and tells them it's not their time yet. When Lily apologizes for what she and her siblings had done to lead to her death, Alex forgives them. After the kids tells her she wants to stay and keep her and Stefan company, Alex shows them that they're not alone as they see the people who Alex cared for that have died.

When everyone remember Hope and Nina, Alex gathered the whole family to throw a party for them. After Josie did a black magic spell Alex found her unconscious and she rushed over to make sure she was okay.

The next day Alex helps Alaric gather people to take out the zombie monsters they've already faced.

## Physical Appearance

Physically, Alex is extraordinarily beautiful and seductive young woman: she has an oval face with fine bone structure, a wealth of brown curly hair, and almond-shaped, deep brown eyes with thick dark lashes just like her ancestor Katherine Pierce. Alex's hair naturally had loose or tight curls.

As a Labonair, she has the Crescent birthmark on her right shoulder, just like her distant relatives, Eve, Lana, and the Hollow.

Alex wore make-up very differently than Elena; Alex favored a dark smoky eye with thick winged eyeliner, and her choice in lipstick was a darker, sultry pink appearance, while Elena preferred a bronze smoky eye and thin eyeliner. Alex, having much curlier hair, seemed to have a much greater volume than Elena's, especially when Elena wore her hair stick-straight.

Alex's choice in clothes was drastically different than Elena's. In season 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 of *The Vampire Diaries*, season 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 of *The Originals*, and season 1 of *Legacies*, Alex is seen wearing either leggings or dark super-skinny jeans to show off her fit figure, along with either blue, purple, or black tank tops. But she is also seen wearing dresses and skirts from time to time. She would almost always wear a black leather jacket over her clothes, either cropped, full length, buttoned or with a zipper. An obvious way to distinguish Alex's style from Elena's is by looking at Alex's shoes. Alex is always seen in black high heeled booties, open-toed pumps, or tall, black boots. Alex is also seen to wear a lot more jewelry than Elena, including her necklace Stefan gave her which turned out to be Esther necklace. She also wearing the wedding and engagement rings of Stefan and Jackson on a chain. She also is seen to be wearing the Petrova, Labonair, Salvatore, and Mikaelson crest.

## Powers and Abilities

Alex's physical strength was seemingly unusually strong even for a non-original werewolf-vampire hybrid. She is stronger than some non-original vampires and has shown to be able to fight vampires of greater age as well, consistently defying normal expectations of such outcomes.

Alex is also able to stagger Klaus with her attacks more than Marcel could, a vampire of two centuries. Alex is currently the strongest Tribrid in the world. Alex is able to heal vampires from a werewolf bite.

### Tribrid Nature

Alex's physical strength seemingly unusually strong even for a non-original werewolf-vampire hybrid. She was stronger than some non-original vampires and has shown to be able to fight vampires of greater age as well, consistently defying normal expectation of such outcomes. Alex is also able to stagger Klaus with her attacks more than Marcel could, a vampire of two centuries.

In *You Hung the Moon*, she got into a heated fight with Klaus and attacked him, however he was not fighting back, simply allowing her to vent her anger. In *Beautiful Mistake*, Alex along with Marcel, a vampire of notable skill and power, were both easily overpowered and defeated by Shen Min, a non-original vampire who was over 800 years old and suffering from Alex's bite, both would have most definitely been killed by him if it had not been for Elijah's intervention. Curiously however, Alex somehow was able to subdue and capture Shen in their first encounter. Other ancient vampires, such as Aya Al-Rashid and Aurora, are also able to subdue her because of their skill, power and age. Aurora, the second sired vampire in existence with equal age to the first, noted that Alex was strong for an infant; however, now with much more skilled training she could take Klaus down on his best day.

Alex continued to show great skill in physical combat, such as fighting multiple vampires at once and defeating all of them, seemingly one by one. She even moved fast enough that some of them couldn't even counter her attacks and could remove their hearts in the blink of an eye. Recently, Alex demonstrated yet another unusual level of her powers by transforming into her wolf form within seconds, something that takes werewolves hours to complete, even previous Alex such as Tyler Lockwood was unable to transform at such speed. While in her werewolf form she was able to completely dismember them in seconds.

Alex is one of the most powerful witches alongside Freya and Bonnie. She has been seen using dark magic and or very powerful magic that would kill witches if they don't have the experience to do so. It is shown in *Bring Out The Dead* Alex used magic to turn Klaus' blood into Vervain acid and made it feel like he hadn't ate in centuries. In *Gather Up The Killers*, she and Freya did a spell to create a cure for the Upgraded Original Vampire venom.

In her wolf form, Alex possesses white fur and has the typical glowing yellow eyes that comes with Lycanthropy.

## Weaknesses

Alex is very powerful but with all that power there is weaknesses. If not used careful Alex can destroy a city if her magic is going un-watched. Furthermore, as a possessor of the werewolf gene and part vampire, Alex will experience bouts of severe aggression. As the world's first full hybrid of all three supernatural species, the full extent and limits of Alex's weaknesses are currently unknown.

## Relationships

### Stefan Salvatore

*Main Article: Stefan and Alex*

"*If it were my choice, I'd want to be with you forever.*"
—**Stefan** to **Alex** in *The Last Day*
Stefan Salvatore was Alex's late husband, as well as Damon's younger brother. Stefan is a 168 year old immortal who is described as handsome, athletic, mysterious, brooding, kind, compassionate and thoughtful. After returning home to Mystic Falls after years of being gone, Stefan unexpectedly "met" Alex on May 23, 2009, after he heard Alex, Elena and her parents' car accident while he was out at Wickery Bridge.

The Gilbert's car had submerged deep into the water under the bridge, where Alex, Elena and her parents were facing death by drowning. It was then that Stefan miraculously saved Alex and Elena's life, although unfortunately, Alex's parents, Grayson and Miranda, didn't survive the tragedy. After the accident, Alex spent the summer traveling the world to get her mind off that her parents were dead.

Stefan followed her around the world to study Alex's background from afar. Stefan investigated Alex's background in order to find out whether or not Alex was really Katherine Pierce due to Alex's uncanny physical resemblance to her. Stefan eventually discovers through the info that he has researched and gained, that Alex is not Katherine and Stefan is relieved by this.

He slowly starts to fall for her from afar and he stays in Mystic Falls because he has to know her. Alex fatefully and unexpectedly meets Stefan for the first time at the beginning of the new school year outside of the Men's washroom. Alex is undeniably drawn to Stefan and the two have an instant, deep and indescribable connection. Stefan and Alex begin to bond and slowly start to develop a romantic relationship.

They both realize that they share many qualities, hobbies, traits, values and beliefs in common. As Alex and Stefan start falling deeper in love with each other, Alex unexpectedly discovers Stefan's deep, dark secret: Stefan is a century old vampire with a mysterious past. Although Alex is at first scared of Stefan and what he is, Alex eventually accepts Stefan's vampire-ism. As opposed to Damon, Stefan is known to respect Alex and honor her choices and wishes, even if he doesn't agree with them.

### Elena Gilbert

*Main Article: Elena and Alex*

"*I never said thank you for anything and I was being a selfish bitch. Thank you for giving up your human life so that I could be human*."
—**Elena** to **Alex** in *The Darkness In The Doppelgänger*
Elena is the older twin sister to Alex and have been really close since birth. Elena and Alex were opposite in taste of style and some communication but other than that they're like the same person. She and Alex always knew that they're stronger together and not apart and that showed in *The Vampire Diaries* and *The Originals*.

### Caroline Forbes

*Main Article: Alex and Caroline*

*"How else was I gonna out-Alex-Gilbert Alex Gilbert."*
—**Caroline** to **Alex** in *You Decided That I Was Worth Saving*
Although Alex and Caroline had been friends since birth, Caroline's constant insecurities as a human, which made her jealous of Alex at times, had created and maintained a friendly rivalry between the two. When Caroline became a vampire, her insecurities went away, and their relationship improved a lot as a result. When Alex turned into the Tribrid and came back from the summer with Klaus she was cruel to Caroline.

After Alex pieced back who she really was there friendship started to get back on track. As Alex started to get more closer with Klaus Caroline could never accept that her and Klaus could be together, as she never liked Klaus and saw Stefan as the better person for Alex. Later, it further degraded after Alex turned into her dark self, to the point that they were enemies: Alex let Caroline fall during a cheer game and not having a care in the world. That problem seems to be fixed in *The Darkness In The Doppelgänger*. Now they are back to being best friends and has upgraded tremendously.

### Bonnie Bennett

*Main Article: Alex and Bonnie*

*"I have a selfish reason. I want to be apart of your happiness."*
—**Bonnie** to **Alex** in *We're Planning a June Wedding*
Bonnie Bennett has been best friends with Alex since birth. Bonnie is also a close friend of Caroline Forbes and Elena Gilbert. Bonnie has mentioned that she and Alex are so close they're like sisters, and she would die for Alex in an instant without hesitation. Throughout the series, Bonnie is protective of Alex, even risking her life to ensure Alex's safety and protection. Alex used to joke about Bonnie's "supernatural" or psychic powers until Bonnie eventually discovered she is descended from a long line of powerful witches, inheriting the gifts herself.

* **Labonair** may be derived from Bonaire. This interesting name has a number of possible origins, each with its own distinct derivation. Firstly, the surname may be of Old French origin, derived from the Old French term "bonnaire", from the phrase "de bon(ne) aire", meaning "of good bearing or appearance", and adopted into Middle English as "boner(e), bonour", gentle, courteous, handsome, thence used as a nickname for someone thought to embody these qualities. The surname from this source is found particularly in England and Scotland; one Thomas Boner was the first of the name to be recorded in Scotland as a charter witness in Aberdeen in 1281. Secondly, Bonner may be an Irish (County Donegal) translation of the Gaelic "O'Cnaimhsighe", descendant of Cnaimhseach, a byname meaning "Midwife". Finally, the surname may be of Welsh origin, as an Anglicized form of the patronymic "ab Ynyr", son of Ynyr, a personal name derived from the Latin "Honorius", Honoured.
