**Amara** *(**Ancient Greek:** Ἀμάρα, **Latin:** Amarantha; translates as "eternally beautiful", "eternal", "unfading" or "immortal")* was a recurring character of *The Vampire Diaries*. Amara was the world's very first immortal woman. She was once the personal handmaiden of powerful witch Qetsiyah and the soulmate and one true love of Qetsiyah's fiancé, one of the world's most powerful witches and the world's first immortal man and being, Silas.

Amara's love for Silas became her downfall as their betrayal was revealed to Qetsiyah, who in retaliation staged Amara's death, and as punishment for her actions transformed her into the Anchor to the Other Side. For over 2,000 years, Amara felt the pain of each deceased supernatural being crossing over, and after her eventual release and short-lived reunion with Silas, she gladly welcomed death.

She was the progenitor of a line of doppelgängers that have come to be known as the Petrova doppelgängers, from which spawned three known female doppelgängers: the first, Tatia, the second, Katerina Petrova, the third Elena Gilbert, and fourth and final doppelgänger Alex Gilbert.

**Amara** was the oldest known ancestor of the **Petrova Family** and the **progenitor of the Petrova Doppelgängers**.
