**Athena Hera Parker Halliwell** is a main character in *Legacies*, and she was a former major recurring character in *The Originals* before being promoted to a main character in the fifth season. She is the tribrid daughter of Malachai Parker and Luna Halliwell, the younger triplet to Apollo and Artemis Halliwell. She is the granddaughter of Joshua Parker, Mrs. Parker, Lee Halliwell, and Lois Halliwell. She is also the niece to Josette, Lucas, Olivia, Joey, 1 unnamed uncle, 2 unnamed aunts, Linda, and Lola.

As a result of her unique heritage, Athena is the world's third born werewolf-siphoner/shadow witch-vampire hybrid. She in inherited her witch and vampire gene from both her mother and father, while her werewolf legacy come from her mother, who used powerful black magic to create herself into a werewolf. Furthermore, through her mother's Lightwood lineage and her father's lineage, Athena is of witch and werewolf royalty.

**Athena** is a member of the **Warren Family**, **Halliwell Family**, and **Parker Family**. By birthright a member of the **Gemini Coven** before transitioning into a vampire, **Divine Shadow Coven**, in which she descends directly from the main branch of witches in the powerful **Lightwood Family**, coming from **Amira Lightwood**, The Witch-Queen's direct revered and royal bloodline, and is apart of all **seven werewolf bloodlines**.

## Personality

Athena is shown to be stubborn and brave as she was willing to put herself through extreme pain and possible death to get her father back. It has been shown that Athena has gained one of her mother's traits of doing whatever she can to protect the people she loves. Athena is always offering to help to save those she cares about and considers family, including Marcel. After losing her father, she, her brother, and sister accidentally uses magic to kill an innocent woman. She struggled to come to terms with her death and refers to it as something that has stayed with her.

## Physical Appearance

Athena is one of the shortest in her family, standing at 5'1" tall. She frequently wears heeled boots to accentuate her height or outfits. She has curly dark brown hair that is seen in many styles. She has light brown eyes and full lips. She wears relaxed yet edgy clothing that compliments her full, curvy figure. She is always seen waring a talisman from the Divine Shadow Coven and a necklace with the Lightwood Family logo and rings. As apart of all seven werewolf bloodline, she has a Crescent birthmark on her right shoulder, similar to that of her mother and siblings.

She wears primarily black or deep reds in the form of jumpers, boots, or jackets. She experiments with her hair, wearing it in a top knot, or a high ponytail. She wears heavy makeup around her eyes and light red lipstick. She has confidence and cockiness in her stance.

In her wolf form, Athena possesses black fur and has the typical glowing yellow eyes that come with Lycanthropy. In her vampire form, Artemis maintains her golden yellow eyes and gained black veins that cascade from her lower eyelids to just above her cheekbones.

## Powers and Abilities

As a hybrid of three supernatural species - a witch/shadow witch, a werewolf, and a vampire; the full extent and limits of Artemis' powers are currently unknown.

* Witch-Nature
* Werewolf-Nature
* Vampire-Nature

Athena is a witch-hybrid, having inherited her witch gene from her father, Malachai Parker and her mother, Luna Halliwell. Amira also notes that Athena's magic will be tainted by vampire blood as well as the aggressive wolf temperament. Despite this, Selene Lightwood states that Athena's magic is strong enough to fuel the French Quarter Coven's ancestral power for generations, while one of the Hollow's acolytes reiterates this sentiment when he states that Athena and her siblings might be the greatest witch the world may ever know.

As a baby, Athena demonstrated heightened awareness of the impending vampire attack that was about to happen and she used magic to cast a powerful pain infliction spell on a vampire.

Athena has a connection to the Hollow, drawing her sigil, the Ouroboros, though whether that was an inherent connection or the link that was used in an attempt to sacrifice her, remains to be known. Her connection to New Orleans soil allowed her to communicate with them, where as non-witches could not. It is worthy to note that Athena has detected these events while still wearing her bracelet that blocks her power.

While other children were unconscious as a result of being tied to a spell that was draining their energy, Athena was able to retain her consciousness like her siblings and friend until her magic sealing bracelet was removed by Kol. Athena managed to counter the boundary spell cast by her honorary aunt Freya on Marcel. Athena, her siblings, and friend would later use their telekinesis to break the salt circle that bound the spirit of Davina to the mortal plane, sending her back to the Ancestral Plane, and returned their Klaus back to his body.

Seven years later, Athena has improved control over her magic as a teenager; however, such control is lost during bursts of anger. She has also shown skill in creating her own spells.

Unlike every witch that transitioned into a vampire, Athena did not lose her ability to practice magic when she became a full tribrid. She was, however, unable to access her magic when she was in transition which left her vulnerable. After feeding, she regained access to her magic, in addition to her vampire and werewolf natures.

Athena is also part werewolf, having inherited the werewolf gene from her mother. Prior to triggering his curse, she displayed some increased agility and grace, above that of a normal human. Since she has triggered her werewolf gene, she has gained all of the powers of lycanthropy. With Athena's first transformation with her siblings looming, Caroline questions that she thought they could control their transformations. In response, Luna states that the first transformation is a rite of passage and cannot be controlled. This implicates that her werewolf nature as an Evolved Werewolf with the ability of Transformation Control. Currently, whether it's the former or latter which grants her transformation control, or additional abilities as an evolved werewolf, remains unknown. Additionally Klaus explains that during werewolf transformations, the pain will make one want to delay the shift because that is all they believe they can handle. However, should one let the pain in, then it cannot break oneself. Following Klaus' instruction, Athena has accepted the pain during her transformation, thus it allows her to fully transform within a few minutes instead of a few hours. Despite that the werewolf curse was originally casted upon Native American witches, preventing them and their descendants from using magic, Athena's lycanthropy does not negate her ability to practice magic; further reasoning about this has not been elaborated upon.

Upon completing his transition into a fully activated tribrid Athena gained the ability to transform from human to wolf form within seconds while magically maintaining his clothing. Her transition also included an energy wave that rippled over her body as he transitioned from one form to another, a trait that is not present in other werewolf transformations.

Before becoming an activated tribrid, Athena possessed a few vampiric traits, specifically her blood. Her blood was able to heal herself, such as when she sliced open her hand. Her blood can be used to sire new vampires and hybrids and make them do whatever she wants using his sire bond to them, the latter being an ability possessed by the Original Hybrid, her honorary uncle, but since her mother is The Original Tribrid, she's able to do so as well as to heal vampires from a werewolf bite.

Athena now is truly immortal and can only be killed by a red oak stake from the Red Oak Tree. She showed great proficiency in utilizing her vampire powers. She showed her ability to compel fellow vampires. Previously, this has only been possible by an Original vampire. After completing her transition, Athena was still able to practice magic. Her true form did not alter much, as she maintained her golden eyes.
## Weaknesses

According to Amira, firstborns and shadow witches of her family's bloodline inherit great power; however, it is unstable and will damage and, ultimately, kill the witch if they are not taught to contain it. Furthermore, as a possessor of the werewolf gene, Athena will experience bouts of severe aggression.

As one of the hybrid of all three supernatural species, the full extent and limits of Athena's weaknesses are currently unknown.

Emmett claimed that Marcel's advanced werewolf venom can take down a hybrid, an Original, and *even* **Athena Halliwell**, her siblings, and Hope Mikaelson. However, he gave no evidence as to why it would or could be lethal to them; nor has this been proven to be true.
