**Freya Mikaelson-Parker** (***Elder Futhark:*** *ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ ᛗᛁᚲᚨᛖᛚᛋᛟᚾ*) is a powerful witch. She was first introduced in Part 2 of the series.

Freya is the firstborn child of Mikael and Esther, the eldest sister of Finn, Elijah, Kol, Rebekah, and Henrik, and the maternal older half-sister of Klaus. She is the sister-in-law of Katherine, Bonnie, Stefan, Caroline, Jo, Liv, and Luke. Freya is the wife of Kai Parker and the mother of Thalia Mikaelson-Parker, as well as the aunt of Hope Mikaelson, Lizzie and Josie Forbes, and Abby and Ace Mikaelson-Bennett.

Esther told Mikael that Freya had died of the plague while he was off hunting, when in fact her aunt Dahlia took her as payment for performing a fertility spell using Dark Magic that would allow Esther to have children. Dahlia allowed Freya to live, planning to use her for a brand new form of power in which she would absorb from the powerful Freya, casting a spell on her that causes her to hibernate for a hundred years to preserve her youth and to only age for a year upon awakening. Freya escaped from under Dahlia's wing and fled from her powerful aunt.

Centuries later, desperate to find out more about her family, she traveled to New Orleans in 1914, where she attended a Christmas party thrown by her siblings. Attending as Kol's date, she was witness to Klaus' cruelty when he daggered Kol in front of the entire party. Freya then puts herself in a glass coffin in the Dowager Pauline Cottage where she then repeated her hibernation cycle until awakening on December 31, 2012.

Entering a deep sleep that lasted a century, she awoke 100 years later where she discovered that her sister, Rebekah, had been imprisoned in the Asylum in the body of a young witch. Posing as an inmate, she witnessed Rebekah's confrontations with the Kindred and Cassie's betrayal. Using her magic, Freya saved Rebekah from the Kindred and broke the spell on the Asylum, freeing herself and Rebekah.

When Freya reunites with her brother Finn, he informs her of Hope's life, which inspires Freya (who wishes to take revenge against Dahlia for the death of her lover) to kill Dahlia in protection of her niece. In the end of a hard and long magical struggle (resulting in the deaths of both her parents), Freya and her younger siblings finally managed to defeat Dahlia, with Freya finally winning her younger brothers' trusts and moving into their house as one of Hope's caretakers and an official Mikaelson sibling.

After a few months of peace in the supernatural community in New Orleans, trouble started again with the arrival of Lucien Castle, Klaus' first progeny, and his warnings of war between the sirelines, and so, Freya's enormous magical powers were needed again to protect her family from harm.

After the completion of the prophecy foretelling the downfall of her family, it seemed as though the entire family was going to die. Her lover, Kai, was poisoned while saving her, her brothers bitten by Marcel, and Rebekah was hexed. Seeing no other choice in saving her family, Freya used Klaus as an anchor to a spell similar to the one Dahlia had cast on her to keep her breathing for a thousand years. Freya also created a Chambre de Chasse as a way to allow her family to be together whilst waiting for she, Adrianna and the rest of their family to find cures for all of them.

The entire family is eventually reunited safely.

**Freya** is a member of the **Mikaelson Family** and an unnamed **Witch Family**. She is also a member of the **Parker Family** due to her marriage to Kai.

## Early History

* Early History
* Early 1400s
* 1914

The Middle Ages, 10th Century
Freya was born in the late years of the 10th century to a Viking warrior named Mikael and his wife Esther. Her parents had met after her mother was captured during a Viking raid, and fell in love before marrying. Freya was their first born child. Her birth was a result of a deal her mother made with her aunt, Dahlia, who used magic to make the barren Esther able to have children of her own. She was, according to Esther, the apple of Mikael's eye. However, when she was five, Freya was taken by her aunt as part of Esther's deal when Esther was pregnant with Elijah and her life following that is a mystery. Esther claimed that she was the victim of a plague in order to cover up what she and Dahlia had done, which is what caused Mikael and Esther to move from Norway to a village in a "mystical land" far away in the New World, which was later called Mystic Falls.

They moved there under the advisement of Esther's dear friend and mentor, a witch named Ayana, who told them that the inhabitants were extremely healthy and had increased strength and speed. The villagers were later revealed to be werewolves. Freya was mentioned by Rebekah when she was explaining how her family ended up in Mystic Falls. Rebekah explained that their parents had lost a child in Europe to the plague, and that later, Esther, Mikael, and Ayana moved to Mystic Falls, where Mikael and Esther eventually had the rest of their children, excluding Finn, who was born in the Old World. It was also said that Freya's death is what made Mikael become so cruel and abrasive, as she was his favorite child.
Esther's deal with Dahlia and the conditions of this deal is later revealed. The payment for this deal was that Esther was to give Dahlia Freya, the first born child of each of her children, and every subsequent first born child for as long as Esther's line will last. Dahlia used a spell to increase her power, while also binding Freya's power to Dahlia's. Freya lived under Dahlia for many years, ostensibly as a member of her coven, but in reality, Freya was more of a slave. Dahlia poisoned Freya's mind, telling her that her mother didn't want her, and that Dahlia was all she had.
When Dahlia learned that Esther had turned her children into the first vampires, and thus ended her bloodline, the weight of carrying on Dahlia's plans fell onto Freya, who swore that she would never fall in love, or have a child, in order to spare any child the fate of being Dahlia's. When Dahlia attempted to cast her pseudo-immortality spell on both of them, Freya at first resisted, only to have Dahlia force it on her. For centuries they existed, slumbering for a century while their aging arrested and their power magnified, to then live for a single year

Freya met and fell in love with a man named Mathias, and a child was conceived between them. They attempted to escape from Dahlia, however, she easily tracked them down, and placed a death hex on Freya's lover. Depressed and pained, Freya drank a deadly poison in an attempt to kill both herself and her unborn son, so that they could both be free from Dahlia.

However, much to her horror, she discovered that part of the immortality ritual was a powerful protection spell that prevented them from being killed, however, as the spell was not cast upon Freya's child, he was truly lost, leaving Freya a sobbing mess in Dahlia's arms.

### New Orleans

In 1914, she befriended Kol and was his "date" during a Christmas party at the Abattoir to get a glimpse of her family. Rebekah, recognizing Freya as the witch that Kol had brought to the party to accompany him, approached her and insisted that she could do better than Kol. Freya told her that it wasn't really a date before Rebekah made to join the rest of the Mikaelsons and Marcel on the staircase for Klaus' speech.

During Klaus' speech, Kol and Freya toasted each other from across the room, but the cheerful and festive night quickly took a dramatic turn when Klaus publicly condemned Kol's treachery and she witnessed Kol getting daggered by Klaus. She later went into the Dowager Fauline Cottage, seeing it as the safest place to be during her century of sleep and because she knew her aunt wouldn't come there.

## Personality

As a child, Freya was mischievous as she and Finn would climb up in trees and plot mischief.
Freya has exhibited an independent, tenacious, rebellious streak, as she fled from her monstrous Aunt Dahlia centuries before and has been fighting, running from her for years ever since. She has a very stoic personality, keeping a calm, difficult to read, expression at near all times. Freya has shown to be a curious person, having wondered about her siblings for some time. When she learned that Klaus had a child, the only sign of her shock was to grab hold of her necklace. Likewise, she showed little surprise upon seeing Finn's new form, and remained calm even while reminiscing about old times, and telling him of Dahlia's hunt for her.
Freya is tough, independent, and she is a skilled actress, having convinced everyone in the Cottage that she was like any other inmate, but in truth, she is a strong, powerful woman and witch who is very much in control of herself. Upon finally meeting and introducing herself to her family, Freya seemingly has a firm sense of honor, as she killed Cassie for betraying Rebekah to the Kindred. She has a fondness for her little sister and approves of who she is, having observed her throughout her stay in the Cottage, and when Rebekah was in danger, Freya showed no hesitation in protecting her. She also has a fondness for Finn, as he was the next of the Mikaelson clan she visited. She seems to have some nostalgia for him, as she embraced him upon meeting. Upon meeting Klaus and Elijah, she expected, humored their caution, suspicion (abrasiveness in Klaus' case) but warned Rebekah she'll be expecting that they would be on their best behavior. This shows that she has a sense of authority, being the eldest of the Mikaelson children.
Freya seemingly has a degree of morality as she sealed Finn's spirit into her pendant so that he wouldn't lay a hand on Hope, believing that he would not resort to threatening an infant, though she did perform a powerful locator spell to find her in a gambit to earn her siblings' trust. She is very fond of her father and has never forgotten the last time she saw him, patiently awaiting the moment she reunites with Mikael. However, she has significant disdain for Esther, as she resents her mother for giving her away and blames Esther for destroying her and her siblings. This hatred only worsened when Esther claimed that Freya lost the light within her and accused her of working with Dahlia.
The damage that Freya suffered caused her to become a methodical and cunning individual, using the spell to save Rebekah as an opportunity to reach into Klaus' mind and learns his secrets. However, she showed little interest in what secrets were in her brother's mind, casually brushing them off as little use to her. She even accepted the fact that Klaus will never trust her and instead opts to turn their siblings against him one by one and killed Esther in vengeance for abandoning her and to make sure Klaus doesn't find out.
Dahlia's return brought out the fear in Freya and she appealed to her siblings to help her save Mikael and Klaus from her aunt's wrath. Then, we see Freya in utter anguish and heartbreak as Klaus kills Mikael so his ashes could be used as a weapon to murder Dahlia. She held this against Klaus so much that she gave an ultimatum to Elijah and Rebekah to either side with her or lose her if they choose their half-brother. Freya's desperation became clear when she resolved to use Hope as bait against Dahlia, something that made her family question her motives.
Though she was forced into becoming the bait to lure Dahlia into a trap, Freya took it with her head held high. She explained that her actions were due to jealousy of Hope for having people who would go to extreme lengths to protect her and Freya not knowing what it is like. She willingly goes along with Elijah's plan, happy to have known what having a family is like for a brief moment rather than spending an eternity running and in solitude.

She has a disparaging view of Klaus, questioning why Rebekah would still defend him after everything he had done. However, when faced with the prospect of having to kill her younger brother to end Dahlia, she admitted that she doesn't want to and that Klaus was the family she always wanted but because of Dahlia she'll be forever alone. In the end, she chose to remain by Klaus' side to care for Hope.
In light of Dahlia's defeat, Freya has integrated herself with the family, and they with her. She has taken an active role in caring for Hope and grown fond of her niece, delighted at how quickly Hope has grown. She also does her best to keep Klaus and Elijah in line whenever they quarrel.
Freya has been seen to be reliable, determined, and fierce whenever things get difficult for her and her family. She is not above taking the initiative of handling things her way and would silence those who would oppose her, as she did with Lucien. She is also one of the more reasonable Mikaelsons, as she went behind Klaus' back by convincing Caroline to help her in her plan that eventually neutralized Tristan de Martel, also showing her capacity for laying out successful strategies.
She has also proven to be stubborn, as her sole motive was to save her family even when she knew that would put someone else in danger. Freya has shown she can be just as manipulative and cruel as Klaus in order to protect the ones she loves, even at a high price. Like Elijah, her loyalty to her loved ones supersedes all as she is more than willing to hurt or sacrifice others to save them.
Ultimately Freya has an almost black and white view of things, especially when it comes to those she views as enemies, not caring about reasons, motives, or how gray the situation actually is. For example, while Cassie did betray Rebekah, she was broken and traumatized by her possession at the hands of Esther and thus not of sound mind. Another example is Marcel, who had his reasons for going up against the Mikaelsons and despite eventually allowing them to leave unharmed and with no intention of coming after them, Freya still wanted him dead or even depowered. She spent months working on the spell to reverse the one that made him the Beast.

## Physical Appearance

Freya, as a child, had curly blonde hair and green eyes. When she appeared in the Abattoir for the Christmas party in 1914, she was a very beautiful young woman of high stature and a slender build, carrying herself with grace and tact. As she slept for 100 years, she would appear to Rebekah as a girl wearing a black dress and her long, dirty blonde hair covering her face with a peculiar necklace in her hands. Upon waking up, she was seen wearing clothes like any other female inmate of the cottage, messy and unkempt. She tied her hair into a braid while letting her side bangs frame her face.

Not long after she escaped the Cottage, Freya's look changed drastically. She appeared to Finn in more modern, darker clothing and wearing makeup. She has let her hair flow freely and has her pendant around her neck. 6 months after ending the threat of Dahlia, she cut her hair to shoulder length, though it has since grown out again.

Freya currently typically wears skinny jeans and stylish, loose fitting shirts. She usually pairs her outfits with various styles of leather jackets and heeled boots and booties. Freya prefers darker colors, usually wearing colors such as black, dark reds, and browns. She also wears a lot of jewelry, including various necklaces, bracelets, and rings, including her wedding ring.

## Powers and Abilities

* Early Life
* Dahlia's Curse
* Post Curse

While Freya was still a child, Dahlia used a brand of Connective Magic which allowed her to draw power from Freya while allowing Freya's power to be augmented. During her early life, Freya experienced difficulties controlling her magic as a result of her maternal lineage, as first-born witches of Dahlia and Esther's bloodline possess devastating amounts of power from a young age. As a result of her heritage, she had the greatest amount of magical potential compared to her other siblings prior to their transformation into vampires. Freya used to experience episodes when her magic would overwhelm her to the point of creating powerful storms and causing all birds in the area to die, usually when she was overcome by strong emotions such as anger and frustration. During these lapses of control, Dahlia used to sing to her whilst hugging her to calm her down and to lower her heart rate.

Some time later in her young adult life, Dahlia enchanted Freya with a curse that forced her to sleep for a hundred years while amassing an abundant amount of magic and power. Unfortunately, the effects of the curse only allow Freya to be awake and live for a single year before the cycle was repeated. During this period, she would be functionally immortal via a strong protection spell. This is ultimately proven when Freya ingested Dahlia's strongest batch of poison and having her neck snapped by Klaus. With these enhancements, Freya became more powerful than any conventional witch as she was "Immortal" and still able to perform magic that had been augmented for a hundred years.
While under Dahlia's spell, Freya had proven herself to be an extremely powerful witch, though she still feared her aunt, demonstrating the ability to communicate with her sister, Rebekah, through dreams and visions even while she was still technically in her century-long sleep, though she was only days from waking up at the time. She has also shown an affinity for telekinetic spells, including being able to move multiple heavy objects without touching them, even in a state of deep slumber. She was able to take down multiple members of the Kindred, and later murdered the Harvest girl, Cassie, as a punishment for her treachery. With the aid of her talisman, Freya healed Rebekah's broken hand with a non-verbal spell and later accelerated the metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly. Her power is most evidenced after breaking the spell over the Fauline Cottage's doors that has kept countless witches imprisoned for decades with sheer magical force.
She was able to locate her brother, Finn Mikaelson, in spite of him being hidden with a cloaking spell. She was also able to locate her niece, Hope, a feat that Rebekah claimed could only be accomplished with the power of a hundred witches. However, after locating Hope, Freya gave Finn her pendant for protection and he was subsequently killed by their siblings. After his "death" in Vincent's body, Freya's talisman protected his soul from moving on while she healed and resurrected Vincent. She would later remove Finn's spirit from the vessel he inhabited, storing him within her talisman yet again.

Freya was able to awaken her dessicated father with a spell that required minimal amount of blood. Uniquely, she performed a non-verbal pain infliction spell by augmenting the frequency of her whistling to the point that it caused Aiden severe pain. Given the sheer amount of magic she possessed, she was able to break apart the cursed shackles that were meant to prevent a witch from using their powers and then instantaneously subdued Klaus by snapping his neck with telekinesis. Another testament to her augmented magic was when she destroyed Esther, who was possessing Lenore's body, with a metamorphosis spell while drawing on her talisman and touching her mother's host's forehead. In doing so, she caused Lenore's body to transform into a few dozen starlings that died shortly after the transformation.
Freya was also knowledgeable of Dahlia's slumber spell and how to reverse it, i.e. to bind the three sources of Dahlia's weaknesses (sacred soil from her homeland of Norway, the ashes of her Viking oppressors, and the blood of the person that broke her heart, which was Esther) in order to create a weapon that would render her killable.
Freya's skill in locator spells is evident when she managed to locate Hope in the Bayou in hopes of using her as bait against Dahlia. She also easily located the hidden White Oak Stake by using a toothpick in a glass of bourbon to pinpoint its location. She used the same ingredients meant to kill Dahlia in a spell that allowed her to create a "killing field" in the Abattoir that will render Dahlia powerless once she steps foot on it. Freya also easily subdued Marcel, a two-century-old vampire and kept him at bay, via telekinesis. While unable to fight Dahlia's magic directly, Freya easily disrupted Dahlia's spell as soon as the latter's magic was temporarily weakened by the cursed shackles.

Since the death of Dahlia, Freya has had many of her spells and rituals result in failure, implying that the colossal amounts of power she previously possessed disappeared with Dahlia's death as prior to Dahlia's death she had succeeded in most, if not all, the spells she had cast. Her pseudo-immortality was also reversed with Dahlia's death as was confirmed on several occasions and with it, the Slumber Spell. It is, however, possible that Freya still has her massive power though is unable to use it to its full extent, this is due to the possibility of over-exhaustion due to her newly-gained mortality.

Freya has shown the ability to not only astral project within the same city, but also to very distant locations. She displayed this after performing a locator spell on Rebekah, and then visiting her in astral form from New Orleans to Africa. Freya was able to cast a spell that simultaneously snapped the necks of all the vampires surrounding her sister, while still in astral form. Her pain infliction spells are more than powerful enough to give Aurora, a thousand-year-old vampire, major headaches, even though Aurora had built an immunity towards pain infliction due to her stay in the Buddhist monastery.
With the help of Kai Parker and Adrianna Gilbert, Freya was able to reverse the spell that turned Lucien into the Beast, thus turning him back into an ordinary vampire. After most of her siblings and Kai got fatal injuries, Freya, desperate to save them, adapted two ancient spells to save her loved ones. In order for her spell to work, she utilized Esther's linking spell, binding each sibling and Kai, to Klaus, while she replicated her Aunt Dahlia's immortality slumber spell. She also placed them all, save Klaus, into a Chambre de Chasse. This gave her and the rest of the family the time to find cures for everyone's injuries. The slumber spell also acted as a protection against all forms of harm; therefore, Elijah and Kol would not die from Marcel's bite, Kai would not succumb to a fatal toxin, and Rebekah would not suffer from the insanity hex.
After the awakening of Kai and her siblings, Freya created her own form of Connective Magic and linked herself to Kai, effectively giving herself pseudo-immortality again. As a result, she is able to easily channel a tremendous amount of magic and is able to perform extremely powerful spells, without worry of over exhaustion.

## Weaknesses

Freya has been a pseudo-immortal witch, two times, when she was linked to her Aunt Dahlia and recently to Kai. After Dahlia's death, Freya lost her pseudo-immortality and had the typical weaknesses of a witch. Following linking herself to Kai via her own version of Connective Magic, Freya once again possesses pseudo-immortality and currently has the standard weaknesses of a siphoner-witch non-Original vampire hybrid.

## Relationships

### Dahlia

"*You need not be afraid. Together, we will be the strongest witches this world has ever seen.*"
—Dahlia to Freya

*Main article: Freya and Dahlia*

The relationship between Dahlia and Freya has been strained and complicated for nearly a thousand years. In an attempt to have children, Esther Mikaelson was forced to give Freya to Dahlia in exchange for Dahlia helping Esther birth other children. For the next several centuries, Dahlia and Freya were together. Freya felt as if she was a prisoner to Dahlia after slumbering for every hundred years just to have a year of life, in order to gain more magical power. Freya finally decided in Book 2 of Part 2 of the series that she was tired of living under Dahlia and she defected to the side of her Mikaelson siblings. Dahlia felt betrayed by this action. However, after Freya helps her siblings kill Dahlia and Esther, Freya was able to live a normal, free life as a witch without Dahlia's forced servitude.

### Finn Mikaelson

"*You're my brother, Finn. I love you.*"
—Freya to Finn

*Main article: Freya and Finn*

Ever since childhood, Finn and Freya have shared a close relationship for centuries. Finn originally thought that Freya was dead and he mourned her still even after not seeing her for centuries. However, after awakening from a century's slumber, Freya reunited herself with Finn while he was in Vincent Griffith's body. After seeing how Finn attempted to kill Hope Mikaelson, she locked his soul away in a talisman to keep him from hurting the family or himself. During the third book, Freya was able to resurrect Finn and reunite him with the rest of their family. However, Finn is shortly killed by Lucien Castle and currently, Freya mourns her brother's loss with the rest of her siblings.

### Kai Parker

"*I thought I lost you. I never want to feel like that again.*"
—Freya to Kai

*Main article: Kai and Freya*

Kai is Freya's husband and the father of her daughter, Thalia. They first met in Book 3 of Part 2 after Kai showed up in New Orleans and thwarted Davina's plan to break Klaus' sireline. Kai took a liking to the Mikaelsons, especially Freya, and remained in town to help them fight against the other witches in the town. Freya and Kai begin spending alot of time together and form a close bond. The two end up beginning a relationship and their importance to each other became clear to the people surrounding them. So much so that the witches took Kai in retaliation against Freya for working against them. This kidnapping resulted in Kai killing himself and transitioning into a vampire-witch hybrid. In the middle of his transition is the first time they told each other that they loved each other. Freya also reveals to Kai that she is pregnant with their child. The two are separated for the first time at the end of Book 3 when, after Kai ingested a poison meant for Freya, she bound his life to Klaus and placed his consciousness in a Chambre de Chasse for five years. He is eventually revived once a cure for the poison is found and they are reunited. The couple get married soon after.

### Thalia Mikaelson-Parker

"*You are my pride and joy. I love you more than you can even fathom.*"
—Freya to Thalia

*Main article: Freya and Thalia*

Thalia is Freya's only child. The pregnancy was not planned or expected, however, when she found out about the pregnancy, Freya was overjoyed and excited about having a child. Despite this excitement, Freya was anxious about being pregnant while dealing with her family's enemies in New Orleans. This conflict resulted in Freya having to place her siblings (minus Klaus) and Kai into a Chambre de Chasse in order to keep them from dying. As a result, Freya was forced to go through a majority of her pregnancy and through the birth of her daughter without Kai. Freya fell in love with Thalia from the moment she was born and made her a promise to get her father back to her. She raised Thalia to be strong and independent and taught her how to use her magical abilities. Freya and Thalia are very close to one another and they spend a lot of time together. Thalia is very protective of her mother and is willing to do whatever to protect her.

### Other Relationships

* Freya and Hope (Aunt and Niece)
* Elijah and Freya (Brother and Sister/ Allies)
* Rebekah and Freya (Sisters/Allies)
* Adrianna and Freya (Close Friends/ Close Allies)

## Name

* **Freya** is a feminine name of Nordic origin (freɪə). The name means "lady". It stems from Norse mythology, Freyja the goddess of love, beauty, war, and death. (**In Ancient Norse:** ᚠᚱᛖᛃᚨ ᛗᛁᚲᚨᛖᛚᛋᛟᚾ).
* If Freya was to truly follow Norse traditions, her surname should technically be **Mikaelsdotter** (daughter of Mikael) as opposed to **Mikaelson** (son of Mikael).

## Trivia

* Freya was first mentioned by Elijah in Book 2 of Part 1 of the series, though not by name, and her first actual appearance was in Book 2 of Part 2 of the series.
* Her "death" caused Esther and Mikael to move to the New World, to the village that later became known as Mystic Falls.
* The loss of Freya was the reason Mikael became so cruel in his grief, and so her loss was an indirect cause of the affair between Esther and Ansel.
* There are parallels between Freya's life and that of her niece, Hope:
	+ Both births were originally thought to be impossible; Esther was at first barren, and Klaus' vampirism should have made him unable to reproduce; it was only due to the fact that Klaus was a werewolf who was turned into a vampire/hybrid by magic that he was able to conceive a child with a hybrid/tribrid, while Esther convinced her sister to cast a spell that would make her fertile.
	+ They are both the first born of their generation, and they are both female. They also both have witch ancestry from their mother/paternal grandmother, Esther.
	+ Freya was taken from her parents by her aunt Dahlia, while Hope was given to her aunt Rebekah by her parents to keep her safe.
	+ Both were separated from their parents under pretense of death, while only a select few knew what really happened to them; only Esther, Dahlia, and Finn knew that Freya didn't die of the plague, and only Adrianna, Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah, Stefan, Damon, and Katherine knew that Hope didn't die shortly after her birth.
* Due to their utilization of the aging-circumventing spell, Freya, together with Dahlia, is the oldest living witch in history, having never died.
* Freya has met all her siblings with the exception of her younger brother Henrik, who is deceased.
* Freya kills Esther after she reveals to Esther her plans to turn every family member against Klaus. When Esther asked her why she was telling her this, Freya replies, "*because you won't be around to see it.*"
* Freya is the third character to have killed Esther, the other two being Klaus and Alaric.
* Freya shares some similarities with Katherine Pierce:
	+ Both were born in Europe and migrated to America centuries later.
	+ Both were to be used in order for relatives of Esther to increase their power (Esther's sister Dahlia tried to use Freya to increase her magic and Esther's son Klaus tried to use Katherine to become a hybrid).
	+ Both escaped and have been on the run ever since.
	+ Both were thought to be dead.
* Freya is currently the oldest living woman
* Freya modified Dahlia's Connective Magic spell, with help from both Adrianna and Bonnie, and used it to link herself to her husband, Kai, so she could achieve pseudo-immortality.
	+ Her version of the spell doesn't require the immortality slumber spell.
