**Scarlett Brown** was a recurring character and an antagonist who first appeared in the first episode of the eighth season of *The Vampire Diaries*. She was employed by Athena, Alaric, Elena, Alex, and Caroline as a nanny with her sister Seline to watch over Jack, Hope, Artemis, Lizzie, Josie, Jax, Nina, Lily, Luna, Lia, Vivian, Vanessa, Grayson, Sarah, and Stefanie. She is later revealed as the other adoptive sister of Sybil, and the third Siren with an unknown agenda towards the kids. Eventually she helped the Mystic Falls Gang take down Cade. She earned their trust and left Mystic Falls so she could live a human-ish life, coming back to check up on her friends.

## Early History

Sometime before 750 B.C, Scarlett, in her young teens, was discovered to be a Psychic, which led to her being forcibly taken from her parents and home by villagers, who had long ago banished any psychic from their land. She and her friend Sybil were subsequently thrown into the sea, where they were washed ashore a nearby isolated island where they found themselves exiled. She did not know at the time that it was the same island in which the first Psychic, Arcadius, lived and was ultimately burned at the stake as a result of his powers.

On this island, Scarlett met a girl, Seline, they discovered that they shared the same psychic abilities. Seline, the older of the three girls and more experienced in her powers, taught the young Sybil and Scarlett to use their voice in conjunction with their psychic abilities to lure ships to the island in hopes of finding a way out. However, the ships always crashed into the rocky coast of the island and were killed, and Seline, knowing that Scarlett would not approve, butchered the bodies of those on the boats (who, unbeknownst to Scarlett, were from their home village) and pass off their flesh as animal meat in the ships provisions, causing the three girls to become cannibals: one willingly, and the other two unknowingly in order to avoid starvation.

Years later, Scarlett and Sybil found the truth and they confronted their adoptive sister about the vile deeds of which she had committed all along while tricking them into participating. Scarlett, desperate to cleanse her soul of the horrors she had unknowingly caused, jumped off and nearby cliff in hopes of killing herself. Seline found her and Sybil dying in the rocks and was so distraught by the impending death of her sisters (and the role she played in their suicides) that she plead with God to save her.

However, instead of God appearing behind her, it was the spirit of Arcadius, who offered Seline, Scarlett, and Sybil immortality and eternal youth in exchange for their servitude. Seline wholeheartedly agreed on behalf of them, and Arcadius, who knew Sybil and Scarlett had died, read their souls and considered their desire to survive as consent to be transformed. From then on, Sybil, Scarlett, and Seline became the first (and, as far as it is known, only) Sirens, Cade's servants, who he had granted continued access to their psychic abilities (which were further enhanced by their voices) in addition to eternal life, youth, and accelerated healing. Unfortunately, this gift came at a price: the Siren sisters would now be forced to feast on the flesh of the wicked, regardless of how small their sins are, in order to maintain their youth and life, while the souls of their victims would be sucked into Arcadius' own realm, Hell.

What Scarlett did with her immortal life in the years between their transformation and their capture in the late 18th century remains a mystery.

### 1790

Scarlett, along with Seline and Sybil, came to Mystic Falls searching for souls for Arcadius, though the witches caught their eye. While there, they befriended Ethan Maxwell, the local metalsmith and learned of the witches spelling a metal work of his, the town bell. She sirens Ethan to add the Staff of Arcadius to the bell which corrupted the witches' magic and instructed Ethan to ring it twelve times to unleash hellfire.

The witches stand together and protect the town from burning, though at the cost of their lives. Before they are able to take the bell, they are lured through the tunnels underneath Mystic Falls to the Armory's vault by Ethan and Beatrice Bennett. They are trapped in the vault with magic and along with Ethan who starved to death in the secret room. At the same time, the Armory received a shipment from Mystic Falls that included the ancient Tuning Fork. Once trapped, Scarlett was held captive there with Seline and Sybil for almost a century.

### 1882 & 1883

When Dalton St. John opened the Armory's vault, Sybil took control of him and caused chaos as she took away his humanity. Given this opportunity, Scarlett and Seline took their chance and was able to escape, leaving their sister behind in the process. A year after her escape, Dalton records that Scarlett returned to Mystic Falls; she searched for the bell, though she would not find it.

### 1943

Scarlett was in Washington, D.C. where she saw Theo with his humanity off. She planned to kill him (sending him to Arcadius) thought she looked into his mind and saw that he was a good person, that he had lost people in the war; good friends which drove him to turn his humanity off. Scarlett uses her power to rewrite the memories and it caused Theo to turn his humanity back on.

### Becoming a Nanny

Months after her sister was released from the Armory's Vault, Scarlett and Seline became the nannies of Jack, Hope, Artemis, Lizzie, Josie, Jax, Nina, Lily, Luna, Lia, Vivian, Vanessa, Grayson, Sarah, and Stefanie. In the process, she started spying on the Mystic Falls Gang after her sister got free with Damon and Enzo's forced servitude.
