**Jackson "Jack" Kenner** was a major recurring character on *The Originals*. He first appeared in the third episode in his wolf form, while his human form appeared in the thirteenth episode of the first season. He was an Evolved Werewolf, alpha and member of the Crescent Wolf Pack. Jackson was the husband of Alexandria Gilbert.

In Season One, Jackson was among the many Crescent werewolves who were cursed to stay in their wolf forms at all times except the night of the full moon. On that night each month the wolves returned to their original human forms for a brief time. When Jackson learned of Alex's return to New Orleans, he was drawn to her. He served as her wolf bodyguard against those who intended to harm both her and her then-unborn child. Later Alex was finally able to convince the witch who cursed the Crescent pack, Céleste Dubois, to break the curse and set them free. Afterward, Jackson returned to his role as Alpha to the Crescents and helped Alex adjust to life in a werewolf pack.

In Season Two, Jackson worked closely with Alex in an effort to stop Esther and Finn Mikaelson and finally unite all of the werewolf clans under their leadership. In *The Brothers That Care Forgot*, Jackson and Alex gave a speech to the werewolves to announce their intention to perform The Unification Ceremony that would allow Alex to share her hybrid control over her transformation with the entire pack. Jackson eventually married Alex in *I Love You, Goodbye* which led him to become an Evolved Werewolf, along with the rest of the Crescent Wolf Clan who were in attendance at the ceremony.

As of *Fire with Fire*, Jackson, along with Alex and the other Crescent wolves, have once again had the Crescent Curse placed on them by a witch (in this case, Dahlia, under Klaus Mikaelson's instruction), and are trapped in their wolf form at all times except the night of the full moon.

In Season Three, Jackson began working closely with Alex and the Mikaelson family in order to ensure their safety in New Orleans. Despite his complicated marriage with Alex, he proved his love for her and that he was willing to stand by her no matter what. However, in *A Ghost Along the Mississippi*, Jackson was kidnapped by the Strix, along with Alex. Shortly after their abduction, Alex was forced to watch Jackson be tortured and executed by Tristan de Martel. Unfortunately, Jackson's death was a part of Tristan's revenge scheme against the Mikaelson family. Before Jackson died, he made it clear to Alex that he was willing to stand by her no matter what. Jackson's death left a huge impact on Alex.

**Jackson** was a member of the **Kenner Family**, which once resided in the French Quarter of New Orleans.
