Vampire diaries who is klaus

But, the sireline makes this even more complicated and perhaps an intriguing problem to have. Given how few things can kill Klaus and that he was 1, years older, beating him in a fight is nearly impossible anyway. Since The Originals wants the audience to root for Klaus and his family, his skill for strategy and war makes for a fascinating series of events, especially when it looks like the family is truly backed into a corner. Still, Klaus finds a way to trick everyone until the moment arrives when he can reveal his true intentions and save those he cares about.

Klaus pulls this off with Dahlia, and when he gets Marcel to keep him alive, Klaus can be linked to his dying siblings. Originally, Klaus's main goal was to break his werewolf bind and leave Mystic Falls behind.

The curse was placed on him over 1, years before, and he desperately wanted to break it to regain his werewolf abilities. Even after he succeeded, Klaus had a motivation for bringing Stefan with him when he left. He took Stefan's memories of their time together with Rebekah in the s. Bringing Stefan with him was a way to reunite with Rebekah. In fact, nearly everything Klaus does has a reason behind it.

Lindsay Press is a freelance writer. In addition, she loves to create stories and enjoys dystopian futures, teen drama, and fantasy worlds. He chose the latter, even walking into the room as a proof, devastating Rebekah. During the holidays, after catching his brother Kol in the act of stealing a rare paragon diamond which he confiscated from Kol, together with Marcel , Klaus learned from Rebekah during a Christmas dinner party, that Kol was conspiring with some of the New Orleans witches against him.

During the party that was hosted at the compound, Klaus made a speech about loyalty and betrayal, prompting Kol to try and flee from the party. Klaus pursued him and, in front of all of their guests, yet again daggered his brother with Elijah's help.

In , Klaus wanted to convince Marcel not to fight in World War 1. He told him that he needs to stay with him at New Orleans, where the people who care for him are, but Marcel left New Orleans anyway- to fight the Germans.

Much later Klaus visited Marcel on the war front in France, to entice him to drink blood of young ladies. At the same time he offered Marcel return to New Orleans. Marcel was starving, but he refused Klaus' offer again because he didn't want to leave his men. In , Klaus tried to make arrangements with werewolves in the city, so his rule could remain hidden.

But their meeting is soon interrupted by the witch Alphonz Bellatunde Delgallo, also known as Papa Tunde, who demands to know how would it benefit for the witches. He demands a tribute as he thinks he is also the king in this city and brings them the head of the mayor who he has killed.

Klaus doesn't like it and decides to find out who this enemy is. Klaus befriends him to find out his weaknesses so he could destroy him. With help of the Marcel who just returned from WW1 he finds out that Papa Tunde channels two twin witches who always accompany him and kills them to get rid of this rival.

During this time, Klaus was very critical of Marcel and Rebekah's relationship, and they were determined to remove Klaus from their lives, and unbeknownst to Klaus, used a witch to call Mikael to New Orleans. Six months after this, Klaus and Elijah attend a local club underneath the Opera Theater, and Klaus flirts briefly with Lana, the "Werewolf Queen" and owner, before he and Elijah contemplate the unification of New Orleans. Elijah tells him they worked together to build up the city, but it was originally Niklaus' vision.

Instead of condemning the pair, Klaus admits that as they move into the new era, attitudes must change. He toasts to Marcel and Rebekah, that they find joy in each other and that he has killed Rebekah's lovers to protect her from a broken heart if they have to move.

However they are now home and he wants her to be happy. After a morning with Lana, she proposes tickets for the Theater that night. Rebekah and Klaus are later seen in a box at the Theater, and Rebekah heads towards the lobby to find Marcel. As Klaus is left alone and the curtain about to lift, Mikael appears behind him, poking his back with the White Oak. Mikael taunts him over the word "father" and that his real father would be just as embarrassed before telling him his plan.

After Klaus demands Mikael just kill him, he is proud of his achievements in creating the city, Mikael taunts death will come, however afterwards he will stay in New Orleans. Klaus tries to save Marcel however he is thwarted by Mikael, and Rebekah intervenes only for Mikael to stab her and push her aside. Only when Elijah appears, they decide to run, that it was too late to save Marcel who Mikael was feeding on.

As they flee, Klaus feeds Rebekah his blood to heal her as they hear Mikael approach. She is devastated at Marcel's apparent death and reveals it was her fault. Klaus denies this, instead apologizing to her, saying this was his fault, and as the Opera burns to the ground ahead of them with screams rippling from inside, that he thought they found a home.

Elijah tells them to leave, that he will hold Mikael off. After hesitation, Klaus grabs Rebekah and the two leave New Orleans.

During the 's, a few years after the New Orleans incident Klaus and Rebekah were yet again on the run from Mikael. The siblings were in Chicago in where they met the vampire Stefan Salvatore , whom Rebekah fell in love with. At first Klaus hated Stefan, but he grew to like him once he discovered that Stefan was a Ripper and they became good friends.

One night, the speakeasy they were at was attacked, apparently by the police, though it turned out the raid was led by Mikael. Before he left, Klaus compelled Stefan to forget him and Rebekah.

Later, when he and Rebekah were about to leave Chicago, Rebekah told Klaus that she was tired of running and wanted to be with Stefan. Klaus then forced her to choose between him and Stefan; she chose Stefan.

Afraid of being left alone, he neutralized his sister with a White Oak Ash Dagger , then took her body with him in a car and left Chicago. Klaus looks into the werewolf massacres and learn that August was slaughtering "beasts". He eventually kills August, but spares his family, Greta , Antoinette , and Roman Sienna ; ultimately shaming them in the process.

Klaus found out what she was up to and compelled her to tell him what she knew. While Katherine found the moonstone, Isobel helped Maddox capture her former husband, Alaric Saltzman. Katherine and Isobel then captured Elena at which point Isobel revealed her true colors and Maddox captured Katherine. He then ordered her to let Elena go since Klaus didn't need her yet.

Maddox then transferred Klaus' spirit into Alaric's body so that he could spy on Elena and her friends. In The Last Dance , Klaus interrogates Katherine for information about Elena and her friends and learns that a witch Bonnie Bennett could be a danger to him, so he decides to kill her.

Still pretending to be Alaric, he attacks her at the 60's decade dance by compelling several students.

Finally cornering Bonnie, he forces her to use enough power to kill her, until she apparently dies. He doesn't realize that she has faked her death to protect herself and Elena. In Klaus , he has Maddox and his other minions, including Greta , bring his original body to him so that he can return to it.

While they are doing so, he sets up a contingency plan by threatening Jenna's life. As Stefan stops him from killing Jenna, Klaus tells him that it would be easy for him to take his revenge if Elena tries to stop him from breaking the curse. At the same time, Elena learns from Elijah the true nature of the curse and why Klaus wants to break it.

He is then released from Alaric's body and returned to his own body by Maddox and Greta. Damon asks if he can postpone the ritual, but Klaus says he has everything he needs and the ritual will happen.

He warns him not to screw it up if he wants to live. Klaus returns to Alaric's apartment and is immediately suspicious of Katherine. He compels her to tell him what she has been doing but, as she is taking vervain, she is able to lie. He is still suspicious and 'compels' her to take off her bracelet, walk to the window and stand in the sunlight. In order to keep up the ruse, Katherine complies and screams in agony until Klaus, satisfied that she has been successfully compelled, permits her to save herself.

He then says she needs to do something for him. When the full moon begins to emerge, Stefan and Elena arrive home but are confronted by Klaus, who tells Stefan that he had him all nervous and thought he might have done something stupid. Klaus asks if Elena is ready.

Stefan put his arm in front of Elena and says " No ". Klaus tells him there is no reason for him to die, and he and Elena leave for the ritual. Klaus returns to Alaric's apartment and tells Katherine that Elena is with Greta. The door flings open and Damon tells Klaus to postpone the ritual, explaining that he rescued the werewolf and vampire and killed Maddox. Klaus tells him that he knew either Damon or Stefan would try to stop him and reveals that he always has a back-up plan.

He shows Damon on a webcam that he has captured Jules. Damon asks if he has a back-up vampire and Klaus says he has got it covered, before darkness falls on Damon. Katherine wakes Damon up and tells him that Klaus has gone to begin the ritual.

She admits that she had to do something so Klaus wouldn't realize she was on vervain, and reveals that Klaus made her call Jenna, pretending to be Elena, in order to lure her out of the house so Klaus could use her as the vampire sacrifice. Katherine explains that Klaus needed another vampire because Damon's blood was made impure by his werewolf bite. Klaus walks over to Jules, who then tries to attack him but fails. Klaus rips out her heart then squeezes the blood into the spell.

The sacrifice continues and Elena begs Klaus to let Jenna go, explaining that she doesn't have to die. Elena doesn't want to leave Jeremy without a family and points out that she did everything Klaus asked. However, Klaus realizes that Stefan has arrived and goes to speak to him on top of a cliff. Stefan tries to negotiate himself in exchange for Jenna's life. Klaus and Stefan return to the women and Klaus asks Elena who she wants to save and who she wants to die.

However, he soon reveals that she doesn't really have a choice and stakes Stefan in the back. He explains that he has other plans for Stefan and needs him alive.

Greta removes the fire circle surrounding Jenna, who rushes over to attack Greta as a last-ditch attempt to thwart her. However, Klaus stabs Jenna, lies her down, and stakes her in the heart. Klaus appears and tells Elena it's time, offering her his hand. She refuses it and walks past him to the sacrificial altar. Klaus thanks her, but she tells him to go to hell.

He bites her neck and feeds from her until she falls onto the ground, lifeless. Klaus announces that he can "feel it happening" and begins to transform. Bonnie Bennett appears and throws him across the ground. Greta heads towards them, but Damon snaps her neck.

Bonnie continues to cast the spell with Klaus yelling to the top of his lungs in pain. As he is about to die, Elijah approaches him at which point Bonnie stops the spell. Klaus seems terrified as he sees his older brother towering over him. Elijah punches through Klaus' rib cage to get to his heart, and Elijah says that this was for their family.

Klaus then tells him that he didn't bury them at sea and that their bodies were safe and that Elijah would never find them without him.

After some consideration, Elijah saves his brother without Stefan or Bonnie being able to stop him. Klaus and Stefan have spent the summer tracking a werewolf named Ray Sutton down the entire Eastern seaboard, leaving a trail of bodies behind them. They ultimately find Ray in Tennessee where Klaus has Stefan kill two more girls before they corner Ray in a bar. There, Klaus tells Ray that he is a hybrid and that he wants to create more. He has Stefan torture Ray using darts tipped in wolfsbane to force Ray to reveal the location of his pack.

At this time, Klaus' is warned that Damon Salvatore had gone to the house where they had killed two women. He decides to go and put Damon in his place but Stefan insists that he should go instead. Klaus lets him. He ends up getting the location of the pack from Ray, then he finds the location of Ray's pack and ends up feeding Sutton his blood before killing him in order to turn him into a hybrid.

Klaus feeds each of them his blood and kills them, believing this will turn them into hybrids. When Ray bleeds from his eyes and continues to feel immense pain, Klaus suspects that something has gone wrong.

Ray soon becomes rabid and flees the site. Stefan, on Klaus' orders, pursues Ray to stop him and ends up bitten. Klaus says he will cure the fatal bite if Stefan retrieves Ray. The other werewolves experience the same bleeding as Ray, and Klaus kills some of them while others simply bleed to death. When Stefan comes back with Ray's dead body, Klaus is angry that he seems unable to successfully create a hybrid.

Klaus gives Stefan his blood to cure the bite and they leave the campsite littered with the bodies of the failed hybrids. In The End of the Affair , Klaus and Stefan have arrived in Chicago, where Klaus plans to meet his "favorite witch", Gloria , to find out why he can't make any new hybrids. Stefan finds an old picture of them together at the bar, and Klaus reveals that they had met before, that they had been friends back in the 's and that Klaus was Stefan's "number one fan", as he liked Stefan's ways of torturing others before killing them.

Klaus had erased Stefan's memories of him and his sister Rebekah to protect themselves, as they were on the run from a yet unknown person. Gloria tells them that she needs Rebekah, as she has something Gloria needs. Klaus resurrects his sister, but she does not have her necklace, which they need in order to contact the Original Witch.

In Disturbing Behavior , Klaus is still using Gloria to try and find the necklace. Klaus later finds out that Stefan was asking about Mikael , the person that he was maybe running from in the 's. Klaus seems angered by this and knocks Stefan out then takes him back to Mystic falls to find out why he is still holding on to his former life. At the beginning of The Reckoning , Klaus corners Elena, asking her why she is still alive.

He takes her by the arm and leads her to the gym, chasing away the other students by telling them they've been busted for pranking. Elena tells Klaus not to hurt anyone, but he argues that he has to. Rebekah drags Tyler's body into the gym, and they wait till Bonnie arrives, where Klaus tells her she has to find a way that he can successfully create hybrids. After Stefan tries to fight the compulsion, Klaus yet again compels him, this time much more emphatically, to turn his humanity off, and finally succeeds.

He turns out to be right after he feeds Tyler a vial of Elena's blood and Tyler completes the transformation - the first hybrid after Klaus. In Homecoming , Klaus receives a call from Stefan who tells him that Mikael is dead. Thanks to the fact that Elena really did stab Mikael with a white oak dagger, Stefan is able to override Klaus' compulsion when he is forced to tell the truth.

Rebekah, who has learned that Klaus had killed their mother, corroborates Stefan's lie in an attempt to lure him back to Mystic Falls. Klaus says that he will be on his way. In the meantime, he gives Tyler orders to throw a party to celebrate Mikael's death. After seeing who he thinks is Elena, he reveals that his hybrids are present throughout the crowd, and they have orders to kill Damon if Klaus is killed. The party goes well, until one of his hybrids says that a guest named Mikael is waiting for him.

Visibly angered, he goes to meet his step-father at the door. Klaus attempts to have his hybrids attack Mikael, but Mikael reveals that while they are sired to Klaus, they are part vampire and can therefore be compelled by Mikael, an Original. Mikael reveals that he had one of the hybrids grab 'Elena' and threatens to kill her if Klaus doesn't come outside of the Lockwood house. Klaus tries to call Mikael's bluff, but Mikael stabs her.

To everyone's shock, it isn't Elena at all, but Katherine, who throws wolfsbane grenades at the hybrids and runs. Damon then appears and attacks Klaus with the white oak stake.

However, Stefan interrupts the battle, pulling Damon off of Klaus. Klaus grabs the stake and drives it through Mikael's heart, killing him and destroying the stake in the process. He meets Damon and Elena at the Grill asking where Stefan is. When they don't cooperate, he leaves, hinting that Stefan's whereabouts might soon be their problem as well as his. Later, while discussing his predicament with Damon, Klaus calls Jeremy and tells him to do "that thing" he'd told him to - clearly Klaus had compelled him earlier that day to wait for and obey his instructions to go outside into the street and not to move.

Klaus' hybrid attempts to kill Jeremy by hitting him with a car, but Alaric saves him. Once back at his house, Klaus chats with Tyler about the day's events, mentioning that humans are a means to an end.

Later he arrives at the Salvatore Boarding House to meet Elena, who leads him to the cellar where Rebekah lies daggered. Elena uses Rebekah as a bargaining chip in exchange for sparing Jeremy, but Klaus reminds her that he has plenty of ways to get what he wants, including hurting other people she loves. Before she leaves the cellar, Elena reveals that she told Rebekah about how Klaus was the one who killed their mother, not Mikael.

Having returned to his mansion with Rebekah, he re-daggers her before she can revive, and returns her to her coffin rather than face her wrath for his betrayal.

In Our Town , Stefan visits Klaus and tells him to get his hybrids out of the town. When he doesn't agree, Stefan kills Mindy by decapitating her. Klaus is angry and tells Tyler to bite Caroline but he refuses. Later, Klaus attends the Founder's Council Feast and persuades the Mayor that his hybrids would protect the town. Damon tries to call Elena and Stefan answers; worried about what Elena has to do with Stefan's plans, he tries to convince Klaus Stefan means business.

Stefan calls Klaus and threatens to take away his "blood source" by driving Elena off of Wickery Bridge. To prove his point, Stefan forces Elena to drink his blood. Hearing this and Elena pleading with Stefan to slow down, Klaus finally promises to get his hybrids out of Mystic Falls. After Tyler unwillingly follows Klaus' orders and bites Caroline, he goes to Klaus asking him for help.

Klaus goes to the Forbes house to heal Caroline. Liz invites him in and he has a intimate conversation with Caroline about being immortal. Eventually, he feeds Caroline his bloods and says "Happy Birthday". After Caroline wakes up the next morning, Klaus has left but she finds an expensive bracelet made of dozens of diamonds: a gift from Klaus. Back in present time Stefan comes home and finds Klaus there, "enjoying" their stalemate.

Klaus repeats his demand that Stefan return his family, now that his hybrids left town. It is revealed that he ordered Daniel Warren, a hybrid, to go to the house of Abby Bennett Wilson and handle the situation, which he does by manipulating Abby and her foster son Jamie in order to get Bonnie to reveal the location of the coffins. After insulting them, the witch spirits torture Klaus until he pushes back by threatening to end the Bennett line. He then commands them to show him the coffins and they do - except the fourth one is missing.

He asks Damon where the last one is and he threatens to rip out his heart, but Damon reminds him that the fourth coffin is leverage and Klaus wouldn't kill the person that knows where it is. After the other coffins were moved to his house, Klaus is surprised by Elijah , un-daggered earlier by Damon, standing in front of him after killing a hybrid. Klaus later counters with his own offer: Elena's future happiness with a human husband, in exchange for the coffin; this would keep her safe from what he deemed to be a dangerous feud between the Salvatore brothers, and would ensure the continuity of the Petrova bloodline so that he could keep creating hybrids.

Stefan refuses the deal. Klaus then grabs him and burns his hand in the flames while Elijah prevents Damon from intervening. Klaus tells Damon to bring him the coffin or he will kill Stefan.

Damon complies and Klaus sends Elijah with him. However, Elijah and Damon return soon afterwards, not with the coffin but with the daggers that Elijah had removed from the other Original siblings. Elijah claims to have learned not to trust Klaus' promises and declares that this will be done on his terms. Kol then appears, followed by Finn , who stabs Klaus in the hand after he tries to seize the dagger. As Klaus tries to run, Rebekah appears and stabs him, saying "This is for our mother".

Klaus stumbles back and is caught by Kol. Elijah dismisses Damon and Stefan. Rebekah announces that they are all leaving him. Suddenly Esther walks in the door and tells her children to stop fighting. She tells Klaus to look at her and asks if he knows why she is there. When Klaus suggests that she is probably there to kill him, she says she is there to forgive him, and that she wants them all to be a family again.

In Dangerous Liaisons , Esther organizes a ball to celebrate the reunion of their family and asks Klaus who he is going to bring to the event. Klaus decides to send a ball dress as a present to Caroline , along with the invitation and a note to save him a dance. She arrives that evening wearing the dress and the bracelet he had given her for her birthday. She dances the waltz with him while he asks her how she's been doing since her father died , tells her how beautiful she looks in the dress he gave her, and compliments her dancing skills.

Rebekah comes home from her one night stand while Klaus sits sketching. Kol says he's bored so he and Klaus leave the room. They head to the Grill where they meet Alaric and Meredith Fell. As a distraction, planned by Damon, Caroline enters the pub but seems displeased to see Klaus and immediately leaves.

He follows her outside and dares her to get to know him. They sit together on a bench and talk. Later, after Kol gets neutralized, Klaus feels something in his chest and recognizes something must have happened. He then gets Bonnie to undo Esther's linking spell. He first tries to bribe Bonnie by offering to reunite her with her mother, but when Bonnie refuses, he instead threatens to kill Jeremy. Klaus watches as Rebekah tortures Damon, but they stop when Stefan comes by and offers to trade his white oak stakes for Damon's freedom.

Klaus then learns that there are more white oak stakes and that one of them was used to kill Finn. At the dance Klaus sees Caroline and Tyler dancing and he interrupts them by asking Tyler where he's been. He then asks Caroline to dance; at first she refuses him, but then Tyler says it's all right.

While dancing, Klaus tells her how she would have loved the 's and that he will be leaving Mystic Falls that night. After Klaus tries calling Rebekah, Stefan informs him that Esther is back.

After Esther is killed, Klaus states angrily that Esther will never be able to stop him and that he will continue to live. In Before Sunset , Klaus is informed by Rebekah that Alaric survived, and that the white oak stake has no effect on him.

Rebekah wishes to leave, but Klaus states that he will not leave without Elena, causing Rebekah to get angry and state that she won't care even if he does die, before leaving. Klaus then goes to Elena's house to collect her, however Stefan and Damon bar his way.

He begins attacking the house from the outside, trying to force them to invite him in, but they manage to repel him. Just as he is about to cause the place to explode, Stefan comes out and says that Alaric has captured both Elena and Caroline and will only give them up if Klaus hands himself over.

Klaus initially refuse, but Bonnie comes up with a plan that will allow them to actually succeed. He then agrees, but makes it clear that after this he is taking Elena and leaving.

He waits in front of the school-where Alaric has Caroline and Elena-with Stefan and the two talk, Klaus trying to drive a wedge between the brothers again. When Stefan states that all of Klaus' attempts to break the Salvatore brothers apart has only made their bond stronger, Klaus counters by asking what will happen when Elena finally chooses between them. Then, Bonnie, Damon and Jeremy show up. Bonnie gives the vampires a vial of her blood, saying that once they drink it, all they have to do is make a connection with Alaric's heart, and she will use her magic to stop it, effectively neutralized him.

After drinking the blood, Klaus enters the school with the Salvatores. He comes across Caroline and grabs her, keeping her quiet and telling her that she will be fine, and that she must get home as soon as possible, she thanks him then runs. Stefan and Damon restrain Alaric, and Klaus plunges his fingers into his heart, but Alaric manages to get free, break Stefan and Damon's necks and nearly drove his white oak stake through Klaus' heart.

Ironically, Elena saved Klaus by threatening to kill herself, deducing that Esther bound Alaric's life to hers so that he could only live one life time. As she prepared to follow through with her threat Alaric went to stop her, freeing Klaus, who then ran off with her. He then began draining Elena of all her blood, that way gaining enough blood to at least have some hybrids, while also killing off the greatest threat to him.

When Elena asks why he is killing her, as he won't have an unlimited army anymore, he states that he doesn't need one as he has his family back. Elena counters saying that they will never truly trust him again, and that he is wants a back up family, which is why he is draining her blood instead of simply snapping her neck.

Later, Tyler shows up and tries to free her, but Klaus finds him before he can get Elena out of the house.

Meanwhile Elijah discloses to Elena that Klaus is his brother and the curse is fake. Klaus possessing the body of Alaric and Stefan tell about the vampires, werewolves and moonstone course to Jenna, but she does not believe in their words.

When Elena confirms that everything is true, she realizes that she is the only member of the family that does not know the truth. Elena returns to Elijah and he tells that Klaus is an hybrid of vampire and a werewolf too and he wants to build his own bloodline. Further, only a witch could kill Klaus in the full moon during the transition.

Klaus bring the witch Greta and she casts a spell for him to return to his own body. Elena trusting on Elijah is very stranger. My vote is nine. Title Brazil : "Klaus". Details Edit. Release date April 21, United States.

While the younger Salvatore was never any real competition for Klaus, he did manage to swipe Klaus' family and do quite a few other things to put Klaus on the defensive. Initially, Klaus was obviously planning on Tyler Lockwood becoming his new faithful servant and something maybe approaching a friend. However, Tyler understandably didn't appreciate his mystical enslavement and did everything he could to rebel against Klaus. Tyler managed to win over all of Klaus' hybrids and break their sire bond to the Original hybrid , and considering that Klaus had been working towards this for centuries, it was a huge hit against him.

While Klaus wooed and charmed Katerina Petrova because he was planning on using her for his sacrifice, little did he know that he was messing with one of the most badass future vampires in history. Katherine didn't take Klaus' plans to kill her lying down, and she not only foiled his plan to break his hybrid curse, but she spent the next years dodging him and messing up his plans.

Despite the front that he puts up, deep down Klaus loves his family more than anything.
