**Elizabeth "Lizzie" Jenna Saltzman** was a major recurring character on *The Vampire Diaries*, a guest character on *The Originals*, and is a main character on *Legacies*. She is one of the twin daughters of Alaric Saltzman and Josette Laughlin, the other being Josie Saltzman. She is the step-daughter to Tyler Lockwood and adoptive older sister to Luna Lockwood. Due to Josette's death, she was carried via surrogacy by Caroline Forbes. Her existence was revealed in *Let Her Go* by Kai, the babies' uncle. However, in *I'll Wed You in the Golden Summertime*, Kai stabs Jo in the abdomen multiple times, killing her and supposedly killing the twins. However, in *Best Served Cold*, it was revealed that the Gemini Coven transferred the twins into Caroline's womb. Since then, she has been raised by both Alaric and Caroline.

**Lizzie** is a member of the **Saltzman Family** and the **Parker Family** and a member of the **Forbes Family**, due to being Caroline's surrogate daughter. She also has ties to the **Lockwood Family** and **Claire Family**. She was a member of the **Gemini Coven** before transitioning into a hybrid. She is also a member of **The Heretics**.

## Early History

Lizzie was born on March 15, 2014 and is the daughter of Alaric and Jo, being part of a set of twins with Josie. She is also the surrogate daughter of Caroline as the twins were put magically into her womb by the Gemini Coven.

## Personality

### Siphoner

Lizzie appears to be a typical high school mean girl, underneath bubbles a darkness that cannot go unaddressed. Given both her sinister lineage and the questionable biology that accompanies it, Lizzie possesses the power to render great harm unto the world if her behavior continues to go unchecked. She shows signs of mood swings, self-absorption, and over-possessiveness. It's ultimately Lizzie's attachment to the superficial that will prevent her from doing the introspection necessary to avert the breakdown clearly on the horizon.

While she cares deeply for her sister and father and would do anything for them, she is incapable of seeing things from their perspective. During the school election for the honor council, she expected to win and felt betrayed when Josie won instead. She only saw how she was slighted instead of being happy for her sister. Lizzie is also a narcissist with a fragile ego that hates when she doesn't have her father's full attention.

During Summer break, Lizzie underwent intense behavioral therapy. She met with medical professionals and healers to help treat her bipolar disorder. She made great strides and started to treat herself and others with more respect. She even supported Josie in her magical endeavors instead of feeling threatened by her sisters' progress. Her progress was temporarily thwarted when MG accidentally made her think she was hallucinating. This was made worse when she was possessed by an oni, and she even expressed a desire to die as she didn't want to live in a mentally unstable state any longer. When Lizzie realized she wasn't hallucinating, she was able to regain a healthier mental state while being the same witty, fun, and brutally honest girl she always was.

### Vampire-Witch

After completing her transition, all of Lizzie's personality traits are heightened, making her emotional ranges more extreme. Upon awakening, her desire to kill Jack, Hope, Jax, Nina, and Lily is amplified, even toying with Hope and Lily in the Chambre de Chasse. Lizzie retains her light-hearted, witty, and fun attitude, as she enjoys the powers that come with being a vampire. Many of her actions are reliant on the sire bond she shares with them. It forces her to comply with their every whim, an action that proves difficult as Lizzie's desperation to avoid them and the situation is also heightened.

## Physical Appearance

Although people describe Lizzie's personality and possibly even her appearance compared to being a "mean girl," she is a beautiful, young woman with light skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair.

## Powers and Abilities

Lizzie was originally born as a siphoner, a witch with no power of her own, meaning that she could only practice magic by siphoning it from another source. However, after becoming a vampire, she retained her siphoning abilities, allowing her to function as a witch-vampire hybrid.

## Weaknesses

Lizzie had the typical weaknesses of a siphoner-witch. After dying and completing her transition, she has the typical weakness of a siphoner-witch non-Original vampire hybrid.
