## Early Life

*I learned the hard way early in life. As a hybrid nobody is going to trust you, you're always going to be the first to get blamed, and if you don't learn to play the rest of the world's game?... It is always going to be your fault.*
— **Dianna** about **her childhood**

Dianna was born as the first born daughter of Eriksson Witch, Ashlee Olsen, and Labonair Werewolf, Cyrus Labonair. Her teenage parents split for good when Dianna was 5 and her younger sister, Athina, was 6 months old. She was then raised by her mother in the small town of Mahomet, Illinois where she attended her schooling.

Her mother began teaching her magical control when she was old enough to understand how to use the magic she had been expressing her whole life. She states that due to the knowledge that she had the werewolf gene even those friends of her mother's who practiced magic with them seemed afraid of her and her sister and always seemed to be willing to punish them rather than teach them. She says most seemed to avoid them unless they needed a favor from them.

However, despite difficulties dealing with the supernatural elements of her life, Dianna excelled at school despite being diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder while still in kindergarten. She was also described as a immune deficient sickly girl growing up, struggling frequently with upper respiratory illnesses. She made Honor Roll all throughout her schooling career a feat which required receiving only A's and B's in her classes.

When she was in junior high, she happened to meet a group of fellows who were also untriggered werewolves including Katherine Coulson and Lacey Monroe. Their friendships only strengthen as they each ended up triggering their curse.

Like all kids with the Werewolf gene, Dianna says she was a nightmare and was forever losing her temper and causing magical incidents around her family home.

## 2012

*I never thought I would be okay again after I triggered my curse, I cried myself to sleep for days, I blamed myself.*
— **Dianna** about **triggering her curse** in **2012**

In February of 2012, just before her 16th birthday Dianna got into an argument with her stepfather about recent behavior while at a visit to her paternal uncle's home. During this argument, Dianna stole the keys to one of the vehicles parked outside of the home and attempted to flee the scene, hitting a pedestrian when she slid on a patch of ice. Her mother called her cousin, Hayley Marshall-Kenner who managed to compel Dianna out of charges for the incident.

After triggering her werewolf curse Dianna would turn every full moon accompanied by her friends (Lacey, Addison, Joanne) who formed a pack, the only pack in the region. Due to her intelligence, leadership abilities, and her bloodline Dianna was elected to behave as the Alpha of the new pack. During this time, every full moon her mother would help provide spells to keep Dianna and her friends safe in the nearby forest preserve while they were in their wolf forms.

Dianna received word from her paternal uncle about the Unification Ritual that would be occurring between her cousin, Hayley, and the Crescent Werewolf Alpha, Jackson Kenner, and that if she was in attendance at the wedding after acknowledging her cousin as Alpha, she, along with her pack if she linked herself to them would share Hayley's ability to control her Werewolf nature.

She traveled to New Orleans with her family in December 2012, and renounced her title as Alpha in favor of Hayley. She later received the benefits of being present at the Unification Ritual (as the witch casting the unifying) after the marriage was sealed.

She met her future husband, Elijah, at the wedding and later said that he behaved as a perfect gentleman to her. While at the wedding her mother decided that for the sake of being around others like her, she should remain in New Orleans, with the rest of her pack later echoing this decision.

## 2013

In January 2013, Dianna was staying with her cousin, Hayley, at the Mikaelson Compound in New Orleans and was attending a local charter school where she continued to receive top grades in her classes. She also began a romantic relationship with Elijah Mikaelson as the two of them grew close as she helped him in moving out of his family home and he assisted her in moving into it.

For her 17th birthday, Elijah drove her back to Illinois where she had grown up and compelled them a showing of her favorite movie. During the movie, she found a ring box hidden in their popcorn and he asked her to marry him. She waited until the drive home and after a conversation with her mother she said yes.

Dianna was outspoken against the plan to run from Klaus Mikaelson, knowing that his revenge would be severe but followed along with the plan due to Hayley's insistence. She was punished when her cousin was placed under the Crescent Curse and was only able to be human once a month during the full moon.

During the time she was under the Crescent Curse she would spend the full moons with her fiancee, Elijah, as well as working on a spell to help free her pack from this curse. Her weaken immune system caused her to fall increasingly ill due to constant exposure. On the full moon in October, her spell had ended up in the hands of Davina Claire and a deal was struck so that the curse could be restrained and they and their pack could return to humanity.

Jackson Kenner later made her a Co-Alpha to their pack. She and Elijah had argument after he took Hayley to the Strix party but later ended up reconciling and even sleeping together for the first time. She returned to living with him in his family home and they began the process of planning their wedding.

She was involved in the Thanksgiving Summit torture of the De Martel siblings. She helped in every way that she could to try to help find Rebekah Mikaelson when she was dropped in the ocean. During their wedding planning, Dianna threw Elijah a surprise birthday party for his 1009th birthday. She participated in her family's Christmas Eve Traditions before spending Christmas Day helping Freya Mikaelson and her mother attempt to undo the hex on Rebekah, and then spent a happy Christmas with her blended family at the Mikaelson Compound.

When Camille O'Connell woke up in transition on the morning of December 26th, she and her mother went to try to secure the supplies necessary to create for her a daylight ring. While they were leaving the voodoo shop, they were attacked by members of the Strix who then kidnapped her. She was later woken to find herself with Hayley and Jackson. Unbeknownst to her, before she had woken, in an effort to save her without blowing his cover in the Strix, Marcel Gerard had injected her with Hope Mikaelson's blood. This blood was activated shortly after when Tristan De Martel tore out Dianna's heart as punishment to Elijah for having tortured him a month before.

She later woke in transition at the Mikaelson Compound, and later completed the transition after drinking the blood of Hope Mikaelson from a vial. She fell into bloodlust however and nearly attacked her own sister. In her high emotional state after realizing what she had done it was discovered that she had not lost her ability to practice magic when she had become a vampire.

She married Elijah at sunrise on December 29th, 2013 under the strictest amount of secrecy in a Lutheran Ceremony at St. Paul's Lutheran Church in New Orleans.

## 2014

For the first couple of weeks of 2014, Dianna had fallen into a deep depression trying to manage the emotions of having transitioned into a part-vampire as well as dealing with the fact that she was now the first of her kind. She has stated that in her first month as a vampire her anger caused her to nearly tear apart everything in the Compound as well as cause her to bite her husband a few times when he tried to restrain her from doing so.

However with some help from her half-brother-in-law, she was able to move forward with her life with her husband and family. During a birthday celebration for her she heard the heartbeat of unborn Grace O'Connell-Mikaelson from inside her mother, Camille O'Connell.

She frequently cast protection spells over Camille O'Connell and the child she was carrying. When her brother-in-law and her husband were kidnapped by the Strix Coven in mid-May, she left her newly adopted daughter with Hope Mikaelson in the care of Camille while she worked with Hayley Marshall-Kenner, Jackson Kenner, and Stefan Salvatore as well as Lucien Castle and Freya Mikaelson to help to recover them before they completed the desiring spell on Niklaus and Elijah Mikaelson.

After the desiring spell was successfully completed on Niklaus Mikaelson, she assisted him, Hope Mikaelson, Jackson, and Hayley in disappearing as his enemies began to close in on New Orleans and looking for the white oak bullet that Aurora de Martel had hidden. She then assisted in preparing the Wiccan wedding of Kol Mikaelson and Davina Claire. When it was revealed that the spell Davina had used to bring back Kol had resulted in the resurrection of all the dead members of the Mikaelson bloodline, she traveled to Europe to collect Freya's resurrected baby son and return.

She has a run-in with her mother-in-law and father-in-law before being informed that Freya had been kidnapped. She later leaves her daughter in the care of Davina Claire-Mikaelson and Kol Mikaelson while she and Elijah traveled to Mystic Falls with her brother-in-law Finn Mikaelson to retrieve her. She tried to help save her brother-in-law and later was present at his funeral.

She assisted Camille O'Connell and Hayley Marshall-Kenner in recovering Klaus from Aurora de Martel and Lucien Castle. She also assisted in attempting to save the life of Camille O'Connell and her unborn child before assisting in delivering the child early at Cami's request and using magic to save the child.

She and Elijah ended up sleeping together after they thought they had put an end to the prophecy, which considering a spell cast by Esther Mikaelson allowed Dianna to conceive a child of their own.

When her husband and brother-in-law ended up with Upgraded Original Vampire bites, she took the sleeping bodies of her husband and Freya with her and the newborn premature Grace O'Connell-Mikaelson to her mother's in Mahomet, Illinois. She later discovers that she is pregnant and moved to a penthouse in a Chicago high rise.

## 2015

She gave birth to her daughter, Olympia in a Chicago, Illinois.

## 2019

She leaves her daughter, and her ward with Hope Mikaelson, Oliver Kenner, and Mary Dumas as she went to Austin, Texas with Jackson and Hayley in order to find Keelin Malraux who had the last of the pack venom needed for the Upgraded Original Vampire venom antidote that Dianna had written. It was later made by Freya Mikaelsdottir and used to heal Kol and Elijah Mikaelson.

She later assists in retrieving Klaus Mikaelson from his incarceration. She later returns with her family to New Orleans when Hope Mikaelson became ill as a result of the Hollow's influence. She later left her child with her mother while she tried to help her family fight The Hollow. She continued to fight the Hollow in order to kill her and obtain the sacrifice needed to return her husband back to life after The Hollow had killed him.

When the Hollow possesses her half-niece, Dianna promises to travel anywhere with her husband as the family is forced to separated to keep her niece safe. She is later left alone by her husband who fears being a danger to her and their daughter. She raises her daughter alone with the help of her cousin, sister and half-brother-in-law.

## 2028

In 2028, Dianna was living between a penthouse in Chicago on Friday through Sunday with her daughters and her ward Vivienne Claire-Mikaelson and the Mikaelson Compound in the French Quarter of New Orleans where she acted as an Alpha to the Crescent Wolf Pack during the week. She had started somewhat dating local chef, Declan O'Connell.

On November 25th, 2028; she was called by Alaric Saltzman who informed her that her daughter and her nieces were involved in the creation of a new werewolf-vampire hybrid, Henry Benoit. Using her knowledge of psychology she deduced that they had been trying to earn money to purchase a passport to travel to France where the memory-less Elijah was living with his new girlfriend, Antoinette. She tries to comfort them about him.

She was later caught off guard and was taken down by Henry Benoit and was put under a sleeping and a cloaking spell by her daughter and her half-niece along with her cousin Hayley. However, it was revealed that someone had taken her from where they had hidden them.

They were found by her daughters, and her niece, Hope, who had been brought to Shiloh Place by Roman Sienna. He later called witches there who performed a spell to bind both her witch and her werewolf side, leaving her nothing but a vampire. She later rushed out into the sunlight with August Mueller, killing the both of them.

Unbeknownst to her, her mother-in-law had linked her to her younger sister, Athina, and administered a serum to Athina that activated in Dianna when she died, resurrecting her as an original vampire. She later had her witch side and unbound her werewolf side, making her an original vampire-werewolf-witch tribrid.

She returned to her daughters about a week after Hope Mikaelson took the power from the Hollow back, reuniting the Mikaelson Family. She broke off the relationship with Declan on account of her husband being around again but moved permanently to Chicago to avoid her husband. The two celebrated Christmas together with their daughters.

## 2029

She returned to town in January to celebrate her half-niece's birthday with her family. She assisted werewolves in the creation of their float for Mardi Gras. She helped to heal those injured in the blast the nightwalkers used at St. Anne's. It is after this that she officially reconciles with her husband.
