**Andrea Mikaelson** is the main protagonist of *The Originals*. She was a former antagonist of *The Vampire Diaries,* and is one of the main antagonists of *Legacies*. Andrea is an Original vampire and a werewolf, making her the **Original Hybrid**.

Andrea was the biological daughter of **Ansel** and **Esther Mikaelson**, the step-daughter of **Mikael**, and niece of **Dahlia**. Andrea is the maternal younger half-sister of **Freya** and **Elijah**, and the maternal older half-sister of **Kol**, *Rebekah* and **Henrik Mikaelson**. Andrea is the mother of **Hope** and **Pietro Mikaelson**, whose father is **Elias**, and the adopted mother of **Marcel Gerard**, an orphan boy she rescued and eventually turned into a vampire.

Andrea was first mentioned in the second season of *The Vampire Diaries* in *Rose*, during a conversation between Rose and Ben Belova. Rose warns Ben that for over a thousand years, Andrea had been trying to break a curse placed on her. She created the myth of the sun and moon curse in order to find the moonstone and the Park Doppelgänger, both of which were needed to break the actual curse. Her goal was to liberate her werewolf side so she could sire her own super species of werewolf-vampire hybrids.

**Andrea** is primarily a member of the **Mikaelson Family** and a member of the *Labonair Family*, which is werewolf royalty.

## Early Life

Andrea Mikaelson was born to Esther and Ansel in a small village that would eventually become known as Mournbury, but was raised by her step-father Mikael, both believing he was her true father. Andrea has five half-siblings fathered from her step-father Mikael, a Viking warrior and wealthy landowner who moved with his wife, Esther, to the New World after their home village was devastated by a plague. Mikael believed his beloved first born daughter Freya was a victim of it, not knowing she was taken by Esther's sister Dahlia as payment for a fertility spell to let Esther have children. Andrea was close to herfamily with the exception of Mikael. Mikael was inordinately hard on Andrea, having become an aggressive, violent, and strict man after he thought Freya died, always trying to teach his children to survive so he would not lose another child. In Andrea's' case, Mikael was abusive to her for his impulsive and reckless behavior, justifying that his punishments would make Andrea stronger, but Mikael was only ever disappointed in everything Andrea did and beat her repeatedly throughout her mortal life. Elijah said that, as a mortal, Andrea was full of love and wanted to be loved in return. After becoming an Original Vampire and werewolf hybrid upon triggering her werewolf gene, her amplified temper and emotions, along with the psychological damage of Mikael's cruelty, turned Andrea into a violent and cruel person, much like her step-father Mikael. Many years before, her mother had an affair with a man from their neighboring village, whose inhabitants were known to be werewolves, men who transformed into wolves on the night of a full moon.

When Andrea and her brother Henrik went to see the wolves transform, Henrik was killed by one of the transformed werewolves. Devastated at the loss of another child, Mikael convinced Esther to use her magic to protect their remaining children. Upon Mikael's request, Esther performed a spell, called The Immortality Spell, which transformed Andrea, her siblings, and her step-father into Original Vampires, the first vampire's to exist, and progenitors to the vampire species.

When Andrea made her first human kill, her werewolf gene was activated and she became a vampire and werewolf hybrid, thus revealing Esther's infidelity. Soon after becoming a Hybrid, Mikael had Elijah help him restrain Andrea, and Esther to use her Dark Magic to place a curse on her which forced her werewolf side to lie dormant, and then rejected and abandoned her.

Mikael then hunted down and killed Andrea's father and his entire family, not realizing that doing so would ignite a war between vampires and werewolves that has been perpetuated across the ages. In retaliation for the curse and rejection, Andrea murdered her mother and framed Mikael for the act.

After killing Esther, her family scattered and Andrea stayed behind with Rebekah to bury Esther. Rebekah promised to never turn her back on her, like Esther did and so did Elijah. They swore to each other they would stay together always and forever.

## Personality

While she was still an untriggered Werewolf-Witch hybrid, Andrea had a complicated life. She was close with her half-sister Rebekah, whom she affectionately called "Becks", and with her half-brothers Elijah and Henrik. She also had a close relationship with her half-brother, Kol, however, she had a bad relationship with her overbearing step-father Mikael who was harder on her than any of her siblings. She was a victim of her step-father's physical and verbal abuse since childhood. Andrea even admitted to Rebekah that Mikael frightened her which made her constantly seek her approval without ever finding it. Her mother Esther often tried to calm Mikael when he became angry with Andrea, but she never tried to stop her from humiliating or from physically/mentally abusing her daughter. Also as an untriggered werewolf, Andrea had the aggressive behavior of one, but she could not act on it due to her mother making her wear a magical necklace, created to weaken her strength and thus leaving her vulnerable to Mikael's abuse. These following reasons led her to resent both her parents and possibly to be jealous of her maternal half-siblings for having their approval. In the director's cut of the backdoor pilot of The Originals, Elijah pointed out that as an untriggered werewolf, Andrea was so full of love and life, and that all he ever wanted was to be loved in return, especially by her step-father. The belief that no one loved her and that she was doomed to be alone forever was the main factor that changed Andrea’s personality.

When Andrea was just in the early stages of being a hybrid, she slaughtered six villagers. Which afterwards, she was devastated and cried into Elijah's shoulder. After finding out that Mikael is not her biological father, she was shocked and betrayed. Andrea is continuously described as being cruel, sadistic, careless, paranoid, reckless, impulsive, short-tempered, aggressive, volatile, unpredictable, slightly unreasonable, narcissistic, manipulative, jealous, obsessive and competitive. Though she shows little to no regard for human life in general, Andrea feels guilt and remorse for most of her actions, she just does not show it, and she also has morals. Despite her negative traits, Andrea has shown to be very protective of her younger half-sister Rebekah, who stayed by her side for centuries, and she is not pure evil, she is just sadistic. Unbeknownst to any, Andrea was not the son of Mikael, but the son of an alpha werewolf named Ansel, in another village which made Andrea aggressive, violent and angry. When she became a vampire, all these emotions were heightened and Andrea’s temper became worse than ever. Years of humiliation and physical/emotional abuses at Mikael's hands and Esther's indifference, coupled with her rejection of him as her daughter, led Andrea to kill her own mother in revenge and for betraying her. After this, Andrea shut off her humanity to any but her family, killing any who crossed her path. Vengeful and power-hungry, she will stop at nothing to achieve her ends and remove those who stand in her way. However, Andrea does not believe that death is a punishment as seen when she denies Katherine death, instead keeping her alive so that she will suffer for having betrayed her. She will also place usefulness before pleasure and keeps people alive when it suits her needs. She has also shown a penchant for working with witches which was mentioned by Elijah. Andrea also has a sense of honor and will not go back on her word although, she will always look for loopholes in the deals she makes.

## Powers and Abilities

As an Original Vampire, later the Original Hybrid, Andrea is the strongest of all species, second only to her children. Her Werewolf side has given her additional powers and advantages the others do not possess, making her the one of the most physically powerful immortal beings in the world.

Andrea's powers improve with the consumption of human blood, assuming her werewolf form or utilizing his lycanthropic enhancements and the full moon.

* **Super Strength:** Hope is much stronger than many other supernatural beings and humans. She is able to decapitate other species with a single chop and shatter windows and doors with small objects. She is even slightly physically superior to the Original vampires, even more so when enraged, using her lycanthrope enhancements, or when she is in her werewolf form. Andrea's strength is enough that she could kill twelve non-Original werewolf-vampire hybrids single-handedly, and was able to fight and kill twenty-four non-Original vampires on her own with only some difficulty as well as kill six Evolved werewolves with little difficulty.
* **Super Strength:** Andrea is much stronger than any other supernatural being and human. She is able to decapitate other species with a single chop and shatter windows and doors with small objects. She is even slightly physically superior to the Original vampires, even more so when enraged.
* **Super Speed:** Andrea's intensified quickness, agility, reflexes, and endurance makes her much faster than other species. She is able to stop other supernatural species in their tracks and run miles in mere minutes. Her reflexes are similarly heightened.
* **Super Agility**: Andrea possesses much more superhuman stamina, flexibility, reflexes, agility and dexterity than any other species, even slightly more than original vampires. She can move, jump very high, flip, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion.
* **Super Senses**: Andrea has a more enhanced sense of hearing, sight and smell that far exceeds those of other supernatural beings.
* **Enhanced Healing Factor:** Andrea heals and recovers faster from any and all injuries than those of other supernatural beings. She also seems to heal much more quickly when exposed to vervain, wolfsbane, or wood than the individual species. Vervain or wolfsbane laced liquid has also been shown to weaken her, though she recovers from the effects much more quickly.
* **Immortality**: With the White Oak Tree burned, no physical weapon on earth can kill Andrea. Nothing but immense magical power worth a hundred witches summoned by an exceptionally powerful witch can kill her.
* **Day Walking**: Due to her werewolf heritage, Andrea is immune to the lethal effects that UV rays and sunlight have on vampires thus allowing her to walk in daylight without the use of a daylight ring.
* **Lycanthrope Enhancement**: Andrea is capable of using her werewolf features to further supplement her powers. Hope can grow werewolf claws and fangs even when she is still in human form. Andrea can display both sets of vampire and werewolf fangs. Her eyes also change into those of his werewolf form, presumably granting her better eyesight. Due to her werewolf heritage, Andrea's strength and speed are heightened further during a full moon and at its peak in her werewolf form.
* **Enhanced Emotions**: Because of her vampiric and werewolf traits, Andrea experiences emotions more powerfully than humans and other supernatural beings. Particularly due to her werewolf heritage, she experiences emotions such as anger, rage, aggression, and violence more deeply and more prone to violence and rage than any other species. However, emotions such as love, joy, and happiness are intensified for her as well, allowing her to live life more intensely. This ability allows her to feel emotions at her peak regardless of her age.
* **Mind Compulsion**: Andrea can compel the minds of most sentient creatures often as a type of illusory hypnosis. When using her power, her irises sometimes glow a dark reddish color, especially when she concentrates it on specific targets.
* **Siring**: Andrea's blood has the ability to turn werewolves into werewolf-vampire hybrids as long as they drink her blood before dying and after, completing the transition, such as with Mason Seo. She can also sire vampire-witch hybrids without the need for them to drink her blood after.
* **Werewolf Bite**: Due to her werewolf heritage, Andrea has venom which is fatal to vampires and Andrea herself is immune to werewolf venom. Tribrid blood is the only other cure for werewolf venom, this ability seems to be unique only to Andrea Mikaelson and her children.
* **Psychic Electrokinesis:** Andrea can see every thought someone has ever had upon physical contact with them. The longer the contact, the more Andrea is able to see others' thoughts. She has used this many times to manipulate her prey.

## Relationships

### Elijah Mikaelson

Elijah is Andrea's maternal older half-brother. As humans, they were close, engaging in friendly sword fights, however their relationship became strained due to both falling for the same woman, Tatia. After transitioning into vampires, along with their sister, Rebekah, they made a pact to always stick by each other "Always and Forever". In 1492, their close relationship crumbled upon the arrival of the doppelgänger ***Sori Park***. Andrea wanted to use her blood to break the Hybrid Curse, but after her escape, Andrea was furious and blamed her half-brother. Although Elijah promised he would find her, their relationship never recovered as in 2010, Elijah planned to help the Mournbury gang kill Andrea. After Andrea broke the curse, at Elijah's mercy, she revealed that she didn't kill their family and that their bodies were safe. Elijah saved his half-sister's life, however was neutralized in return. Their bitter relationship continued after Elijah was un-daggered by Ian Choi. However, the half-siblings became allies after their mother returned and were unsure of her intentions regarding their family. In the Season Three finale, Elijah bargained for her half-sister's body back and was clearly devastated by her "death". Throughout the trials and tribulations which threatened to rip their bond, they have recently begun mending their relationship and even though Andrea refused to grant Sori freedom by Elijah's request, Elijah has stated he won't give up on finding Andrea's redemption.

Unfortunately, Andrea's relationship with Elijah takes a turn for the worst when Elijah chose to believe Marcel's lies over him, that she is (supposedly) aware that her child's blood can make hybrids, and she plans to use her child's blood once she is born to make an army of hybrids, to take over New Orleans, Elijah falsely accused her of only caring about her unborn children, so she could use them to sire more hybrids, Andrea became hurt/enraged by the accusation, she violently bit Elijah in retaliation, their relationship became damaged after this. Andrea eventually forgave Elijah, when he apologized to Andrea for his accusation. Despite the fact that their relationship is now repaired, Andrea is barely on speaking terms with Elijah.

They reconcile by the end of the third season after allying together to stop the Trinity. When Andrea decides to sacrifice herself to destroy the Hollow, Elijah chooses to die instead, having Andrea promise to be there for her children.

### Rebekah Mikaelson

Rebekah is Andrea's maternal younger half-sister. Out of all her half-siblings, she is closest to her, and very protective of her. Andrea cares very deeply for Rebekah, but she seems to have a lot difficulty showing her that it is true. They are loyal to each other. Before she left New Orleans, thus separating, they had never left each other's side and stood by one another no matter what happened. After Andrea was "supposedly" killed by Adrian in *The Departed*, Rebekah was heartbroken over losing her older half-sister whom she loved and never left her. When she finds out in the Season Four premiere that she was still alive, their relationship started to completely and totally fall apart when she chose to save Elias over her own half-sister. Rebekah confronted her about how she never stopped loving her through everything. It was always her that was there for her when Kol and Elijah weren't. She then realized that she truly doesn't love her when she told her they are no longer family, and disowned her. But later in the season, Andrea saves her when Kol nearly kills her with a White Oak Stake. Even when she hates her, Andrea shows that she still cares and loves her regardless of what has happened between them. After Andrea is again the King of New Orleans, she begins to form her own army and so to defeat Andrea and Marcel, since she tired of always being used by them. Nevertheless, Rebekah has tried to protect the children of Andrea at all costs. When discovering that it was Rebekah who brought their father to New Orleans, she decided to get revenge and wanted answers. She admitted that she wanted her dead as she robbed her of love and happiness. Andrea chooses not to kill Rebekah, but she exiles her from New Orleans permanently, possibly Andrea sees killing Rebekah too merciful; she indirectly threatens to kill Rebekah with the White Oak Stake, if she ever returns to New Orleans. Andrea decided to entrust the safety of her children to Rebekah, she returned to New Orleans to take Hope and Pietro with her and care for them.

### Marcel Gerard

Marcel is Andrea's ex-best friend and adoptive son. It's complicated, but they respect each other. There's definitely a history between them. It has been stated many times that Andrea loves Marcel like a son. Also, Marcel is very much in favor of embracing his true nature as a vampire and that's something he learned from Andrea and something they certainly have in common. When Andrea returns to New Orleans after 100 years, she finds that Marcel has taken control of the city. Seeing that her former friend has used everything she has taught him and achieved glory, Andrea wants what he has, forming a rivalry between the two. But Andrea still sees Marcel as an old friend. After Marcel attempted to bury Andrea, he surrendered New Orleans to her and despite their still unresolved differences, Andrea asked Marcel to rule side by side with her. After finding out that Marcel conspired with Rebekah to bring Mikael back in order to get Andrea to run from New Orleans and for him and Rebekah to be together, Marcel was banished from New Orleans but even so, they found a way to come back together and Marcel was seen as an older brother to Andrea's twins.

***Their relationship has ended with Marcel's death***.

### Elias Goldsworthy

Elias Goldsworthy the father of Andrea Mikaelson's twins and who she believes to be her true love. After arriving to Mournbury for the doppelgänger, Jangmi, Andrea developed an unrequited romantic interest in Elias despite harming him ***and*** his friends multiple times. As the series progressed, Andrea fell for him even more because in her eyes, Elias was beautiful, strong and full of light. Despite the constant attempts of his friends to kill her, with Elias's help, who was trying to distract her, Andrea still cares about her. In *My Brother's Keeper*, Andrea and Elias had a date that she accepted in exchange for one of his hybrids to save Jangmi. They had a fun afternoon where Elias asks her if she would ever want to become human again, but she evades his question by asking him if he would take back activating his curse. Later, Andrea revealed to Elias the only time she wanted to be human again, Elias likes that. When Andrea marries Jackson for the greater good of the pack, she invites Elias to bare witness with his son, Elijah so they will never have to transform, and tells him that despite her martial status, he is the one she loves the most. She believes one day that he will choose her and let her show him the world. After returning to Mystic Falls to see the supposed demise of The Shinigami King, Andrea is in the woods with Elias and she asks him to be honest about his feelings for her and that as soon as they are done with the conversation, she is going to walk away and never come back. Elias finally accepts that they have a connection and then they share their first kiss which leads up to sex and the creation of ***The Tribrids***.

### Hope and Pietro Mikaelson

Hope and Pietro are Andrea's only biological children. In the beginning Andrea wasn't happy with the arrival of the babies, then with time she started to change her mind and began to worry about their safety. She looked happy when the doctor told her that the baby would be twins, then she began to fight for their protection against her enemies. Now she loves them more than anything and in order to protect them from the people that are trying to kill them, she decided it was best to send them away. They were given to Rebekah, who would keep them safe. Andrea was reunited with the twins when their safety was compromised. The twins are now living at home with their mother and the supernatural community is now aware of their existence.

The twins and Andrea's bond remains strong during the rest of the series until they were separated due to Andrea sacrificing herself to save her family. Andrea feared that the twins would reject her upon being saved from Marcel's captivity. But, apart from some bad things she's done, the twins know what Andrea is and isn't afraid of her. Their memory of Andrea was kept alive because of their aunt telling them about their mother such as her loyalty to her family, her love for them and her interests that they now shares with her.

They were reunited after five years and, despite some initial nervousness on both sides, they shared a lovely day together, it showing just how alike they are. Andrea shared stories from his long life, The twins showed him their magic when Hope healed a butterfly and they painted together. They knows how strong she is and, because of that, they believe she can keep bad things away.

Once she promised that nothing was going to harm them, Hope and Pietro hugged her. Despite their time apart they calls Klaus 'Mom', showing that their bond is still strong.

### Mason Moon

Mason was the first successful hybrid of Andrea's bloodline and her most trusted hybrid. Initially Mason was very grateful as Andrea had taken the pain of turning on a full moon away. However due to being supernaturally loyal to Andrea, Mason was forced to do things he did not wish to do, such as when Andrea made Mason bite Ian. After losing his friends and his girlfriend, Mason vowed to break the sirebond so he would no longer hurt his friends, even if that meant breaking every single bone in his body a hundred times. Andrea was unaware that Tyler started a coup d'etat against him by freeing the other hybrids and claiming the title of the Alpha of the Hybrid Pack which resulted the massacre of the whole pack excluding Mason. This wasn't enough to satisfy Andrea's anger, therefore she killed Hanjoon Seo in a fit of rage. Mason and Andrea were arch nemesis' and had the most intense rivalry on the show. The current state of their feud now is unknown, and possibly ended now that the two have gone down very different paths. Andrea being a mother, and Mason finding peace in his life.
