the original vampires can be dated back to ancient egypt, to the sun goddess Sekhmet, and her followers. sekhmet is also known as the goddess of war. Sekhmet's role as the goddess of war fits well with her desire for human blood. During a time of war, having a bloodthirsty deity on your side sounds like the way to go. Getting her to stop after each war ended proved a completely different matter, and Ra was tired of waiting for her blood lust to satisfy. as did the other egyptian gods and goddesses, so they came up with an idea of how to punish her. they cursed her to need blood to live, hoping this would lead to her to no longer desire blood. but it backfired, it lead to them giving into the blood lust and this created the first vampire.
part of sekhmet's curse was that she wasn't allowed out during the day, and as a sun goddess this drove her mad, so she started turning her followers into the same creature she was cursed into being. but with them being mortal, and she was immortal, the cursed blood made them immortal.
Vampires must drink human blood to stay healthy and maintain their strength and vitality; preferably blood straight from the source (referred to as 'live' blood). Though it is possible for vampires to alternatively sustain themselves on the bagged, preserved blood found in hospitals, it is not as effective, and can leave them almost as weak as humans compared to live-drinking vampires. Though vampires can drink animals' blood, it provides much less sustenance, and as such is only a weak deterrant to avoid killing humans when vampires' hunger gets out of control. Likewise, vampires can drink each-other's blood, but it will eventually leave them more hungry. Vampires are capable of consuming human food and drinks, but they do not get any sustenance from it, and it is actually almost tasteless to them.
An absence of blood in a vampire's system will cause them to become severely weakened and barely able to move, and they will also grow heavily and agonizingly starved-feeling. Blood starvation can also cause vampires to suffer hallucinations. It was shown with Suren that eighty years without blood can leave a vampire in an extremely desiccated, mummy-like state, barely able to move at all. Although vampires get stronger from feeding on blood, consuming too much, while increasing their healing and durability further, can cause them to exhibit symptoms of intoxication such as decreased reaction time and less sense of self-control.
Vampires are undead creatures, whose bodies are kept animated and supernaturally-preserved by the curse that causes vampirism. Due to their undead state, vampires possess few bodily functions, and no vital signs such as a heartbeat (although Aidan once mentioned that an electric shock could have a brief defibrillation-effect on a vampire's heart), and their bodies remain frozen at the physical age they were when the vampire in question was turned, no matter how far beyond that age the vampire has lived since being turned. While vampires' bodies do not age, they can still experience some other certain natural developing processes such as hair growth. However, any other type of change, such as blemishes developed by infections and non-genetic causes, or any signs at all of aging or wear, remain unable to manifest. Vampires also lose sense-based defects such as incorrective-eyesight that they had as humans, and are immune to non-supernatural forms of disease.
vampires are super strong, super fast, and have super senses. they are also able to heal faster than a human.
Though vampires normally appear indistinguishable from humans, they can switch from their human face over to their vampiric true face; their eyes turn pure-black, and some of their front upper-teeth sharpen and extend to form fangs with which they can directly feed or kill. There can be several specific variations between different vampires' fangs. Vampires seem to most commonly have just two canine fangs and sharpened lateral incisors, but they can alternatively have four lateral incisor and canine fangs, or just two lateral incisor fangs. Vampires' fangs can also vary in thinness and length from needle-like to more canine-like. If a vampire's fangs are removed, they do not grow back, rendering them unable to drink live.
Vampires can extend their fangs and switch over to their black eyes either at will, when they're in a state of agitation (such as feeling hungry, losing emotional control or fighting), or when they're expressing malice and malevolence and are about to attack. It has been suggested that vampires' use of their vampiric face probably acts as some form of adrenaline rush and enhances their capability to lethal efficiency.
in order to be turned into a vampire, one has to drink a vampire's blood, and have their blood drank by the vampire before dying with the vampire's blood in the system.
After the turning process is carried out on a living, dying or recently-dead human body, the person remains clinically dead for a length of time (seemingly a matter of hours or even a day's length), before awakening as a new vampire. From that point onward, the person's body will be kept physically frozen at the age they were when they were turned, and any injuries or any form of damage they suffered, including vampire bites, will be gone without a trace. Upon awakening, the new vampire has an immediate feeling of hunger and cramp from their new need for blood, which they usually give in to the moment their new vampiric senses and instincts are aroused by human blood for the first time.
When a person is turned into a vampire, a lasting supernatural parent-child bond forms between them and the vampire that turned them. It is usual for a new vampire's maker to look after and care for their vampire progeny and guide them on being a vampire.
the only way to kill a vampire is by decapitating them. and the older they are the harder it is to kill them.
Vampires can endure significant physical trauma without the damage being fatal. They are resilient to damage and punishment that would be severe if not fatal to a human, and can make a full recovery from it just a matter of hours or days, although they can still feel the pain and suffering that the damage causes.
Vampires can heal quite quickly, but not instantly. How long a vampire takes to heal and how much pain they are able to take depends upon the severity of the injuries they have sustained, and also upon how strong the vampire is. Ultimately, so long as their heart isn't pierced with wood, their fangs are not damaged and they aren't decapitated, a vampire is able to fully recover and self repair any form of physical damage (including injuries that would be utterly fatal to humans, such as stabbing, impalement, flaying even gunshots to the head) within a matter of hours. If a vampires suffer severe enough physical damage they will be temporarily crippled by it, however the healing process is best accelerated and aided by drinking more blood than usual.
Vampires feel pain despite their inhuman endurance and healing factor, and thus can be temporarily greatly crippled by severe enough physical damage and even tortured. Vampires' vulnerability to pain and physical damage is higher the more weakened they are. It would seem that a vampire's weakness to pain decreases with age.
male vampires are able to procreate with female humans, creating a species called dhampirs - half vampire and half human - who surpass their mothers and can hold their own to their fathers.
Enhanced Vitality - Vampires possess stamina, strength, vitality and physical capabilities well beyond any human in their physical prime. This allows them to physically exert themselves, even in a superhuman capacity for hours without showing signs of fatigue. Vampires can run, fight and exert themselves for longer than any human and in a greater physical capacity, though they can still feel fatigued and even be knocked out. However their vitality, like their other abilities is tied to their consumption of blood; vampires who drink live blood can exercise superhuman levels of agility and stamina, whereas those who drink bagged blood will be weaker and have less energy.
Enhanced Strength - Vampires possess tremendously enhanced strength, being noticeably physically stronger than average adult humans. They can exert much greater force than the average person. An average vampire, regardless of their size or shape, are shown to be stronger than heavily built, greatly massed humans. Vampires have shown to easily physically overpower humans, and even younger or weakened vampires of all shapes and builds, exerting a staggering and incapacitating force; this has allowed a vampire to throw another vampire of the same age flying several feet through the air. A vampire's strength increases with age, as a several hundred year old vampire was able to decapitate his maker using chains, a feat repeated by an ancient vampire with just a swift slice of her hand. Their strength has been described as inhuman, and being on par with that of a preditorial animal.
Accelerated Speed - Vampires are much faster than humans and werewolves (in human form and possibly even wolf form); vampires can give sudden bursts of amazing speeds, about that of the fastest land vehicle or more, to the point where they can appear to be distorted blurs of motion and can get from one spot to another within just a second or two. This has allowed Aiden, directly after feeding freshly from humans, to cover the entire city of Boston, from Bishops building to the rooms where Josh was turning inside, all in a matter of 10 seconds or less. This immense speed also has an equally immense impact force against anyone or anything that a vampire hits while moving at this speed. It appears that vampires' super-speed is triggered by extreme emotional fear and motivation, analogous to hysterical strength in humans. It would also seem that this speed usually works when a vampire is at full strength from feeding on live blood and recently.
Enhanced Senses - Vampires possess extremely heightened senses of sight, smell and hearing much greater than humans and non-purebred werewolves. Vampires can smell evidence of death, and can sense when someone who doesn't want to be seen is nearby (Some Thing to Watch over Me). They are able to hear the heartbeats of anyone nearby, especially when thirsting for blood, and can tell when someone is on their period, or pregnant purely from their smell. Vampires can smell humans from as far off as a mile away and assess their physical condition from their scent.
Enhanced Recovery - Vampires are able to recover from any form of physical damage at a much quicker rate than most other creatures and certainly any mortal creatures; depending upon their blood diet and the severity of the damage. A vampire was able to completely recover from being attack and impaled within a matter of hours after drinking a sufficient amount of bagged blood. After completely feeding from two live victims, a vampire was able to regenerate all of the skin on their body in less than a day after it had been peeled off. Despite their tremendous regenerative abilities, there are certain injuries that vampires cannot recover from, like decapitation or staking, and they cannot regenerate damaged or destroyed fangs.
Mind Compulsion - Compulsion or compelling is a vampire's ability to influence, manipulate and even modify a person's mind, will and memories with simple eye contact and verbal compelling. While it is an ability that comes naturally with vampirism, for some it is difficult to use. Compelling can also, if a vampire is poorly-skilled at using it, go wrong, causing its effect to wear off faster, or even drive the subjected human to suicide.
Compulsion does not seem to work on werewolves, ghosts and other vampires.
Enhanced Resilience - Vampires possess far more endurance and stamina than humans, making them more resilient to fatigue and trauma. They are essentially invulnerable to most conventional causes of fatality, and are extremely resilient to fatigue and pain. Vampires can endure trauma such as high velocity impacts, damage to vital organs, gunshots, even impalement and eventually recover. There are however certain exceptions and restrictions to a vampire's resilience, with injuries such as a stake to the heart, decapitation resulting in instant death. A vampire that feeds on humans can quickly recover from impacts such as those created from falling from great heights, and can easily get back on their feet unfazed or partially fazed. Vampires weakened from feeding on bagged blood respond to physical stress and trauma in a more human manner.
Clairvoyance - As supernatural creatures, vampires are constantly aware of ghosts, able to see and hear them in the same way werewolves and other ghosts can. They are also able to sense werewolves, who give off a distinct, dog-like stench that can only be detected by vampires and other werewolves. To vampires, a werewolf's smell is highly repulsive. Old and powerful vampires such as Mother can apparently also sense other vampires, even when they are out of sight.
Immortality - Vampires are an undead supernatural species with and endless lifespan. Vampires do not physically age from the moment they are turned, and will maintain this physical age regardless of how much time has passed. Due to their advanced rate of recovery, they also do not develop any long lasting or permanent injuries, the only notable physical change that may occur is hair growth. Vampires are immune to conventional earthly disease and are capable of living forever, provided they are not killed through unconventional methods such as staking or decapitation.
Telepathy: Vampires possess the ability to see thoughts and read minds, as well as communicate. This gift can extend for thousands of miles.
Weather Control - The supernatural ability to influence meteorological energy patterns, such as creating rain, wind, hail, lightning, snow, sleet, fog, and temperature changes.
Elemental Manipulation - The supernatural ability to control and manipulate the elements of air, earth, fire, water, lightning, etc.
Animal Control - The supernatural ability to control the behavior of any kind of of wild or domestic animals. However, a vampire can typically only control one species at a time
Shapeshifting - The supernatural ability to alter and change the physical form of one's self.
Illusion Casting - The supernatural ability to be capable of disrupting the reality of one or more beings at once. This power is limited, due to the short time span of an illusion, but it can be used to neutralize the enemy without harming the victims.
Vampires cannot be killed by most conventional means that humans can; however they still experience pain, and can be crippled for days, or moments, depending on the trauma. Trauma that would hospitalise or kill humans may only temporarily hinder vampires, and there are a few specific natural substances which temporarily paralyse, weaken and cripple them. There are certain methods that can be used to destroy them. When a vampire dies, their body withers and burns away to ash, along with anything they were wearing.
Decapitation - Cutting a vampire's head off will kill them instantly or near instantly.
Sunlight - While sunlight is not lethal to them like in traditional folklore, vampires strongly dislike direct sunlight, which seems to cause them pain and discomfort, though they can hide it overtime, and they tend to prefer to go out covered up in daylight.
Invitation Deprivation - Houses owned by humans or werewolves cannot be entered by vampires without the owner's permission, unless the vampire itself either lives there or was turned there. Entering uninvited for more than a few seconds will cause the vampire to burn, and can fatally melt the vampire away if they don't get back out quickly. Interestingly, if the ownership of the house officially changes while a vampire is still inside it, the invitation is nullified, and the vampire will perish unless he or she escapes immediately.
Blood Withdrawal - When vampires don't feed after a day or two, they begin to become sick and rabid; losing self-control over their bloodlust around humans, and even experiencing hallucinations. They will act aggressive and will slightly feel panicked and desperate for blood.
Blood Intoxication - When vampires feed on too much blood they will begin to become intoxicated. In this mental state, vampires can be overpowered easier by werewolves that are a day away from transforming, and are at greater risk of losing self-control and attacking humans.

a werewolf can shift the day before, the day of, and the day after a full moon. the reason they shift all three days is their bodies start to prepare for the shift the week leading up to the full moon and their bodies build so much adrenaline for the shift that�� they tend to need to shift all three days to release it all. all werewolves can control whether or not they actually follow through with the shift or not, with the exception of a female werewolf who is pregnant (they tend not to build up adrenaline or need to shift when pregnant.) if a werewolf puts off shifting, or avoids it altogether, they can put themselves in a lot of pain. the longer a werewolf puts off shifting the more they start to look like they are sick, if they keep putting it off it could look like they are dying.
shifting in itself is painful, especially when the werewolf is new to the process (whether they have just recently been turned or they have reached the age of maturity, which is 15 years old in human years). but the pain of shifting never gets any easier, it doesn’t dull down. look at it this way, if you start shifting at 15, and there are generally 12 to 13 full moons a year, by the time you are 20 you’ve shifted about 260 times and by time you are 30 you’ve shifted 390 times, you’d get used to the pain. the pain of shifting does take adjusting to, as the werewolf’s bones are changing from human-like to wolf-like. their bones are breaking and shifting. the body is changing from one creature to another.
a werewolf shifts into the form of a wolf, not some monster like that’s been seen in folklore drawings, but they are larger than the average wolf. A full grown wolf is 6’6” in length, that’s about the length of a teenage male werewolf. a full grown male werewolf is closer to 8 feet long, whereas a full grown female werewolf is about 7 feet long, a teenage female werewolf is about 5’5”. the color of fur on a werewolf does vary and the color of fur has no significant meaning. The only part of a werewolf that has any significance is the eye color of the alpha. their eye color is generally red when in wolf form, the rest of the pack’s eyes are gold.
werewolves can be born or turned, werewolves who are born generally are children of werewolves, and are from a long line of werewolves, there are werewolves that are pure bloods - generally dating back to the first werewolves - and are born to werewolves who have only ever had procreated with other born werewolves. there are werewolves who’ve had children with humans, and while their children are still born werewolves they aren’t as strong as pure bloods. a turned werewolf is seen as the weakest of the species as they are generally humans turned into werewolves after being bit by a werewolf.
werewolves when turned do not have to be turned by the alpha, the bite from a werewolf no matter what their pack status is in their pack, or if they are packless, every werewolf, even if they are turned werewolves themself, can turn a human into a werewolf. although, a werewolf turned by an alpha is stronger than a werewolf turned by a beta, or by an omega or packless wolves. a bite that breaks skin is all that is needed to turn a human into a werewolf, the saliva from the werewolf introduces the werewolf dna into the bloodstream which mixes with the human dna and takes over.
a turned werewolf has a sort of sire bond to their creator, not so much have to do everything they tell them, but they are loyal to the werewolf that turns them, and while they still have a bond to their pack’s alpha, they are more likely to follow their creator’s lead than their alpha. now if their alpha is also their creator, then it’s more like a sire bond. however werewolves created in a lab do not have the same bond with their creator as one turned by being bitten. they also do not have the same bond with their alpha, whose dna is used to turn them.
werewolves age differently than humans and wolves, while a 2 year old wolf is about 15 years old in human years, werewolves age even slower, so by the time they turn 32 in human years, they are about the age of 3 in wolf years.
when a werewolf hits 15 they are considered old enough to mate, though the human in them sees that mating at 15 is wrong, especially since the age of consent is 18 years old. mating is a very sexual act and while in the middle ages, most people were married and reproducing by 15 (and there are still teen parents in this day and age) claiming a mate is forbidden at 15. mating takes place at 18 years old and most mates that are claimed are around the same age, sometimes however werewolves don’t find their mates when they are 18, sometimes they are found later in life and the age difference tends to be a little greater then too but the age difference is never anything illegal (so a 30 year old werewolf’s mate won’t be 18 or younger). a werewolf’s mate can be another werewolf or can be a human.
the mating process occurs during intercourse during either a full moon or a new moon. the mating process during a full moon is generally for one werewolf claiming another werewolf as their mate, the mating process between two werewolves is more animalistic. the mating process during a new moon is generally for when a werewolf is claiming a human as their mate, the mating process between a werewolf and their human mate is more humane, it’s more about making sure other werewolves know that the human belongs to a werewolf already, that human is under the werewolf’s protection. when a werewolf claims a mate, they bite their mate during the mating process, during sex with their mate.
when a werewolf meets their mate, there is this feeling of a part of them finally being complete, like they need the other to fill a void in what has been missing from their life. when they have met their mate, they have to wait until the full moon or new moon to claim their mate, which means that until either of these phases of the moon, they have to remain celibate (with their mate).
while a bite generally turns a human, during the mating process it’s used to mark the other as their mate, a way for other wolves to know that this person has been claimed, that they are under the werewolf’s protection. a bite during mating, when the mate is a human, will turn the non-werewolf partner. consent for the werewolf partner is a must when it comes to claiming a human as a mate for this reason. also not all non-werewolf partners are turned by a bite during the mating process, there are certain circumstances and certain reasons a bite wouldn’t turn the human mate.a bite during mating doesn’t go as deep as a bite that would turn a human, the only reason a bite would actually turn a human is if the werewolf partner’s bite goes too deep. claiming a mate is not done to reproduce/procreate, though the mating process itself is done to reproduce/procreate, claiming a mate is done more so to fortify the bond between mates. like wolves, werewolves mate for life and once their mate dies, they don’t search for another mate.
when a werewolf becomes pregnant, the pregnancy is faster than a normal human pregnancy, as wolves are generally pregnant for at most 75 days (about two and a half months) and while wolves generally have litters, a werewolf pregnancy consists of one baby at a time. a werewolf pregnancy usually lasts for four months, roughly half the timespan of a normal human pregnancy. an unborn baby of a werewolf develops in the womb faster than that of a normal unborn baby. due to the shorter pregnancies, werewolf families tend to be a little larger, as long as nothing happens to their mate.
generally in a pack, you have your alpha, beta, and omegas. The alpha is the pack leader, and generally the pack leader’s kin is the next alpha if the current alpha is a born werewolf. In the instance the alpha is not a born alpha, their child could still be the next alpha, but would have to prove themselves in a fight against other prospects. A born alpha’s child could still have to prove that they are worthy of being the next alpha, they generally tend to have the pack’s following the moment they are born (if the alpha has more than one child the title generally goes to their first born). At any time can a beta test their alpha’s power, and attempt to become the alpha themself. In order for a beta to become an alpha, they have to prove that they are strong enough to take their alpha’s power from them. at any time a beta can test their alpha’s power but if they are unsuccessful in proving they are stronger than their alpha, they are sentenced to death by the hands of their alpha. and when a beta takes over as alpha, they have to prove themselves by killing their alpha. however, if the alpha is killed by an outside source, the heir (if the alpha is a born werewolf) takes over as alpha. Omegas tend to be werewolves turned by a bite from a beta, or other omegas. they cannot be bumped up to alphas from the omega status in the pack, but they can bump up to alpha if the beta that turned them becomes alpha and they take them on to prove they are strong enough to be alpha. Alphas tend to be a bit more cold hearted than betas and omegas due to having to be able to prepare their pack for unforeseen circumstances or to protect themselves from the pain of losing their mate, their children, and their pack members.
werewolves tend to hear up to six miles in the forest/heavily wooded areas and 10 miles in an open tundra, they can also cover up to 60 miles in one night traveling by foot. werewolves are fast and can see farther away than most humans. they can also smell more scents than a human can. werewolves tend to heal faster as their bodies tend to metabolise nutrients faster than a human. they are also stronger than the average human.
to weaken a werewolf, the herb Aconitum napellus -- otherwise known as wolfsbane -- is known to weaken a werewolf. there are some myths that silver harms them, but that is just a myth and not actually true. to kill a werewolf the best way is to decapitate them or remove their heart. when a werewolf kills another werewolf, whether they were a threat to the pack or in the trial for power, they remove the other’s heart and then decapitate them. werewolves can bleed out to death if there is an object that keeps them from healing. for a human or hunter to kill a werewolf they have to weaken them first and aside from wolfsbane harming their mate or other pack members weakens them too. while human illnesses don’t affect werewolves the same way as a normal human, they also still weaken a werewolf. but there are some illnesses that werewolves are immune to (like the common cold, the flu, and other illnesses).
While a wolf’s natural instinct is to hunt and survive they are not naturally aggressive towards humans. They only attack humans if they feel threatened. Same can be said about werewolves. They do not attack humans unless provoked, they don’t attack anything other than their prey unless provoked. Werewolves, like wolves, are much less tolerant of being touched by unfamiliar humans than most dogs are. If a wolf wants you to touch it, the animal is likely to initiate the touch either by rubbing against you, submitting and exposing its belly, or perhaps even pawing you or attempting to stand up to get close to your face. If a werewolf wants you to touch them, they will approach you and initiate the touch by rubbing against the human, either with their body or pressing their head or nose into your hand.
a werewolf wedding ceremony is more about the connection between the couple than binding them legally together, much like a human wedding ceremony. a wedding involving a werewolf is performed on pack land, regardless if both in the pair are wolves or not, and consists of a native american tradition, the blanket ceremony, and a celtic/wiccan ceremony of handfasting, and a unity candle ceremony. the ceremony starts with a family member, or someone close to each of the couple, wrapping the individual with a blue blanket representing their pasts, then the officiant, usually a pack elder or the alpha, says some words before wrapping a ceremonial rope around their hands, binding them together, the pair than share promises to each other, followed by either the officiant or close relatives of the couple will step forward carrying a white blanket. They will remove the blue blankets and then drape the large white blanket over the shoulders of the couple, symbolizing a covering over of their weaknesses and sorrows. Now the couple can enter their new life of marriage joined with peace and fulfillment. the couple than shares a kiss and their union is sealed.

dhampirs are very rare, so rare that no book has an actual record of them existing. Due to their species being rare, no one knows any way to stop them or what they are capable of and aren’t capable of. Starting with conception, dhampirs were thought to not be able to exist as everyone assumed that vampires weren’t capable of reproducing. Vampires, however, are capable of reproducing, it is just rare for them to actually have a child with a human. Some say that the reason vampires cannot reproduce is due to the fact that they don’t have souls. Others say it’s because they are dead and their reproductive system doesn’t work anymore. There is no real explanation to why dhampirs can come to exist. It could also be because humans are the vampire's primary source of food, and vampires only see them as such. Regardless of how come they are rare, or what makes it possible for them to exist, dhampirs do in fact exist.
A vampire with a soul can fall in love, they can relate to humans, they can connect with them. So a vampire with a soul is more likely to spend time with a human, and is more likely to be able to have sex with a human.
when a dhampir is conceived, the pregnancy itself goes pretty fast. A normal human pregnancy takes the span of nine months for the baby (or babies) to fully develop. A dhampir takes at most five months to develop in the womb. Like human twins, dhampir twins usually are born a month earlier than singular babies. Labor is the same regardless of the baby being human or dhampir, there isn’t a difference between how the baby is born as their mother is human. When the baby is born, they appear human, and they need the same nutrients that a normal human baby. dhampirs also age at the same rate as a normal human baby.
dhampirs appear to be human, not having the same weaknesses as their father. While a dhampir can die a human death, a dhampir would become a vampire at their death. the only sure way to kill a dhampir without them turning into a vampire is by cutting off their head. They are sensitive to sunlight — but sunlight doesn’t kill them like it would their father. Like their father, they have to be invited into one’s home, and holy objects can cause harm to them, but dhampirs can endure the harm of holy objects after constant exposure to them. As for, reflections, dhampirs take after their mothers on this field. Dhampirs appear to be more human than their fathers.
while dhampirs do lust for blood, they don’t need blood to survive. Once a dhampir tastes blood though they stop aging altogether, and the blood lust starts to take over and the dhampir will start to take after their father more than their mother, in most cases they start to lose their humanity altogether. When a dhampir vamps out, their face doesn’t change like their father’s, they do grow fangs but appearance wise, one would think they are wearing halloween fangs instead of actually being a dhampir.
dhampirs, like vampires, have superhuman strength, speed, agility, reflexes, stamina, and durability. Their senses are heightened (smell, hearing, and night vision) and they heal faster than a normal human. Their fangs aren’t razor sharp like their father’s would be, they have a duller tip & the tip of their fangs tend to be a little more round. They do not have the same innate hand to hand combat skills, but can be trained to have such skills. They can die a human death, that leads to them being full vampire, and are immune to telepathy.
some rare powers, or unusual, can be inherited as well, though some are unsure if it’s part of their human blood or their vampire blood that allows the dhampir access to these powers.(ie. being able to hypnotize victims, psychic links or powers — like precognition and empathy. (Both Liam and Celia have precognition — though only when sleeping — but Celia’s is unknown if it’s a vampire ability or if it’s a slayer ability. Also both Liam and Celia share a psychic link that allows them to find each other & telepathically communicate with each other as well as feel each other’s emotions & pain — their psychic link also unknowingly links them to Angel & Buffy)

THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE FIVE
HISTORY
PLEASE NOTE: up until the in my portrayal portion all information is from the tvd wiki page.
In the early 1110's, a dying witch gathered together five men, presumably warriors, led by Alexander, and cast a spell to bind them together towards a single common goal: the destruction of all vampires. The spell, which was bound by the witch's dying breath, endowed them with peak human physical abilities which would enable them to challenge vampires and an intense desire to kill them whenever they saw one. The witch also gave them something more, a mystical tattoo that became known as the Hunter's Mark which spread all across their right arm and torso. The tattoo acted as a map and led to what Alexander called 'the ultimate weapon' that would ensure the destruction of the vampires: a cure for vampirism. The map could only be deciphered by using their swords, which was engraved with the symbol of their brotherhood.
With these new enhancements and their goal in mind, Alexander and his brothers set out on a bloody campaign across Italy to seek out and destroy vampires wherever they found them. As they crossed several towns, they captured and killed hundreds of vampires, ruthlessly massacring them at the pyre by exposing them to sunlight. As they did so, they spread their message that the demons lived amongst the human population, with invigorating speeches at market stands.
In 1114, as the Norman conquest swept through the south of Italy, the Five became aware of the presence of the family of the original vampires who had arrived in Europe and had been turning people as they went. As their tale spread, the Five soon learned that the Originals could not be destroyed as ordinary vampires could be. It is presumably because of this that they had a witch create the White Oak Ash Daggers which could neutralize them if they were bound to the ashes of the White Oak Tree.
The Originals had also heard of the Five and encountered them as they traveled southern Italy. Although Elijah Mikaelson, the eldest of the Originals, believed that these hunters could pose a threat, his siblings did not believe they were that dangerous and the only female Original, Rebekah, even began a romantic relationship with Alexander. Elijah nevertheless attempted to grow closer to the hunters by pretending to be a nobleman who had taken up the crusade to destroy the vampires in order to learn more about them. It was then that Alexander revealed what they were after and how they intended to accomplish it.
However, despite Elijah's caution, the Originals had underestimated the Five. One night, Alexander revealed to an unsuspecting Rebekah that he knew she was a vampire by daggering her, rendering her neutralized. That night, Alexander and his brothers invited Elijah and his three remaining siblings, Finn, Kol and Niklaus, to a 'slumber party' and they daggered the four remaining Originals, apparently ending their threat. However, they were unaware that Niklaus was not just an Original vampire; he was a hybrid, half-vampire and half-werewolf. Given his werewolf side, the daggers had no effect on him. Niklaus subsequently slaughtered the Five before releasing his siblings, ending the Five's crusade and making any map to the Cure lost because the tattoos vanished with their deaths.
SURVIVAL
After the death of The Five, a new aspect of the witch's spell was revealed: the Hunter's Curse. This was a fail-safe that guaranteed the killer of a hunter die, as well as to try and increase their odds of survival, so they could complete their mission to cure and kill Silas. Niklaus, who killed all of the Original Members of the Brotherhood of the Five, began to suffer from severe hallucinations which took several forms all of which convinced Niklaus to kill himself. However, as he was indestructible, he was unable to do so when he tried.
However, The Five had not been destroyed as everyone believed. Another effect of the spell was that Potential Hunters could eventually take up the mantle of their fallen brothers and carry on their quest. When a hunter is killed, the Hunter's Mark appears on another and he begins to feel the changes that come with being a hunter. It took a total of 52 years, 4 months and 9 days, after Niklaus killed the Original Five Hunters, for all of The Five to be replaced. This also broke the Hunter's Curse and released Niklaus from the hallucinations, which presumably happened the instant the last of the Potential Hunters killed his first vampire.
From that moment on, there has, at every point in time, been only five hunters in existence, mostly unaware of one another and even of what their purpose was. However, the more vampires they killed, the more their mark (which was now invisible to all but other hunters/potentials) grew. Many believed that this meant they would need to complete their mark to discover what they were meant to do.
POTENTIALS
Potential Hunters refer to those who can become part of the Five once a current member dies. Pre-requisites to become a Potential are currently unknown. However, they are identified by their ability to see the Hunter's Mark on the bodies of any current Hunter. Potentials obtain the Mark themselves when an active member of the Five dies and will become "awakened" after they commit their first Vampiric entity kill.
PHYSICAL ABILITIES
Once a potential hunter has "awoken" by killing either a vampire or vampire-hybrid, the hunter is imbued with the same supernatural enhancements shared by the other members of the Brotherhood, making them noticeably very muscular, strong, agile, dexterous, and dangerous — the pinnacle of human physical abilities. Despite their newfound physical abilities, they are not on par with those of a vampire, but are enough to put up a much more significant fight than a human. Even Klaus, an Original, acknowledged their prowess as hunters. Members of the Five possess enough power to decapitate a supernatural species with only their raw strength and even with a blunt object, provided they have some form of leverage. Connor used his chains and position to decapitate a hybrid. Jeremy, on the other hand, was able to carry two metal barrels of alcohol in each hand whereas Matt couldn't lift one with both hands.
IN MY PORTRAYAL
So a few things I'd like to cover, especially since it's not really covered in the show. Or that didn't make sense to me. All vampires know about The Five, they aren't something that just appear out of nowhere that vampires aren't told about. However, vampires see them as a cautionary tale or a story that older vampires tell newbies to scare them. When a member of The Five is turned into a vampire, the need to hunt doesn't just go away. While they don't hunt themselves they will hunt other vampires. HOWEVER that being said, the Mark of the Brotherhood doesn't grow anymore as it vanished with their death.
ENHANCED ORIGINAL
HISTORY
Please note: up until the in my portrayal portion all information is from the tvd wiki page.
Esther modified her original spell and turned Alaric into an Enhanced Original vampire. The spell, however, had one major addition. She knew that as he was a Member of the Five, he'd put an end to himself once he was done with her children. Alaric was created to hunt down and kill all of the Originals, which quite possibly could have made him superior to all regular Originals, and possibly even Niklaus, the Original hybrid. His physical strength is shown when Klaus and Alaric fight in the school and the latter gains the upper hand by breaking Klaus's wrist, slamming Klaus against a locker, and then throwing him to the floor effortlessly. After Alaric gains the upper hand, he attempts to stake Klaus with the White Oak Stake while he is on the ground, however, Klaus manages to hold Alaric to a stalemate using all of his strength.
Due to the nature and purpose of the spell that created them, the Enhanced Original vampire's powers and abilities were at least on par if not superior to the Original vampires that came before. Alaric was created to become the ultimate hunter, capable of eradicating the vampire species as a whole. Similarly, he was endowed with superhuman physical abilities as strength, speed, agility, durability, healing and senses as well as powers of mind control.
POWERS/ABILITIES
Super Strength : The Enhanced Original vampire was much stronger than other human and supernatural beings even possessing enough strength to overpower Original vampires, and even the Original Hybrid. An Enhanced Original vampire like Alaric was able to easily overpower non-Original vampires, Stefan and Damon and Original vampire, Rebekah. When Klaus attacked Alaric, Alaric quickly managed to beat and throw Klaus around though the former was able to hold him to a stalemate when they grappled for the White Oak Stake.
Super Speed : The Enhanced Original vampire was much faster than other human and supernatural beings. Alaric was slightly faster than Original vampires, and was of similar speed to the Original hybrid. They are able to stop other supernatural species in their tracks and run miles in mere minutes. Alaric incapacitated both Damon and Stefan within seconds with his superior strength and speed, as the two vampires could not even hold Alaric longer than a few seconds before both were neutralized instantly.
Super Agility : The Enhanced Original vampire possesses more superhuman agility, flexibility, and dexterity than humans and other supernatural beings. They can move, jump, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion.
Super Senses : The Enhanced Original vampire has extremely keen senses of hearing, sight, and smell, even greater than vampires and Original vampires.
Super Durability : The Enhanced Original vampire can take far more trauma than humans and other supernatural beings without much discomfort or injury. Alaric could heal faster than normal vampires when exposed to vervain and sunlight. For example, Alaric was able to drag Caroline back inside while burning from the sun without even catching on fire. Wood does not seem to weaken them and even the White Oak Stake, a powerful enchanted object, will not kill the Enhanced Original vampire; likewise, it seems unlikely they would be affected by the white oak ash daggers. It is unknown if decapitation or heart extraction would have had any effect on him, although it is unlikely as the magic that protects them renders their body completely indestructible.
Semi-Immortality : The Enhanced Original vampire will not physically age and is immune to all illnesses, toxins, poisons, and diseases. However, the only Enhanced Original had its life force tied to a doppelgänger, thus Alaric has the same lifespan as Bonnie's, meaning once she dies of old age or by any other means, he would immediately follow.
Healing Factor : The injuries of the Enhanced Original vampire healed faster than other human and supernatural beings. Human blood has also been known to make the healing process faster.
Emotional Control : The Enhanced Original vampire can control and manipulate the emotions of one's self. Alaric was completely devoid of humanity while as an Enhanced Original vampire, completely driven by "The Darkness", his split personality that hated all vampires and even humans who protected or ignored their presence.
Enhanced Emotions : The Enhanced Original vampire experienced emotions more powerfully than humans. Emotions like love, joy, and happiness are intensified for vampires allowing them to live life more intensely. This ability allowed the Enhanced Original vampires to feel emotions at their peak regardless of their age.
Mind Compulsion : The Enhanced Original vampire can compel the minds of humans, non-Original vampires, and non-Original werewolf-vampire hybrids.
Dream Manipulation : The Enhanced Original vampire could control dreams and subconscious. The vampires can produce and modify dreams, bestow nightmares or lucid dreaming. Other effects of this ability is the distortion of reality and trapped in the dreams.
Illusions : The Enhanced Original vampire had the power to trick the minds of others into seeing or feeling things that aren't actually happening.
Shapeshifting : Vampires are capable of shifting into the form of any animal, though some have a preferred form, Alaric has yet to discover which form he likes the most.
WEAKNESSES
Animal Blood : Animal blood weakens an Enhanced Original vampire's strength.
Broken Neck: Breaking an Enhanced Original vampire's neck will not kill them, but it will render them unconscious for several hours.
Desiccation : Being completely drained of blood or the heart stopping will cause an Enhanced Original vampire to desiccate like any other vampire or Original, losing most of their strength and any ability to move. This process can be replicated artificially by a witch casting a desiccation spell.
Invitation : In order to enter any house owned by humans, they had to be invited by that person. Once invited the vampire cannot be uninvited, only if ownership of the house is changed can they be removed until re-invited. If a vampire lives in a house, other vampires can enter freely and if a vampire is in the house without being invited in it will become disoriented and will begin to suffocate.
Physical Trauma : Minor physical injuries such as gunshots, stab wounds and broken bones will cause an Enhanced Original vampire pain and also slow them down.
Sunlight : The sun also burns the Enhanced Original vampire but it cannot kill them. Alaric seemed to be able to tolerate sunlight better than Original and non-Original vampires.
Vervain : Vervain burns Enhanced Original vampires just like it does with the other vampires, although an Enhanced Original vampire will heal very fast to the point where the damage done by the vervain is gone within seconds.
Werewolf Venom : Similar to Original vampires, it is assumed that werewolf venom can't kill an Enhanced Original vampire and will likely experience similar effects. Lucien Castle's advanced werewolf venom isn't lethal to Alaric, it has a similar effect that Klaus's venom has on his siblings.
IN MY PORTRAYAL
This isn't just relevant to Alaric as an enhanced original but to all vampires, male vampires can procreate. There is an entire species, dhampirs, that actually are children of a male vampire and a female human. And that so many shows/movies about vampires just erases that there is a species out there that has always (well as a teen/adult) irked me. So Alaric doesn't become human and have children with Jo, he stays a vampire & still does have children with Jo, his children are dhampirs. HOWEVER; in my portrayal, dhampirs are not common and are only said to be a myth. This could be for a number of reasons. Reason #1; the human lover disappeared to have the baby on their own. Reason #2; a vampire didn't want the world to know about their child. Another thing about my portrayal is that Alaric is not linked to Elena because that meant others would be able to kill Elena to kill Alaric and Esther didn't want that, though she did lead everyone to believe they were linked. Alaric also has no humanity, nor a humanity switch, so he has to relearn humanity.

Alaric Kennedy Saltzman was born to a teen mom in nevada. Clifford Saltzman and his wife Julia had been in nevada on an archeological dig in one of the native american burial grounds. The Saltzmans had been married for 10 years and had a three year old son, Charles, when the couple had decided to adopt a second child. Charles had been conceived with the assistance of a fertility clinic since the young couple had been having issues conceiving themselves. They had been working through an adoption agency that his birth mom had gone through to find a good family for their son. The Saltzman family ended up meeting the week old infant at the orphanage his parents left him at. They ended up adopting him and naming after Cliff’s grandfather, Alaric.
When they finished their time on the dig they returned to their home in Boston, Massachusetts. Alaric had slept in his carseat the majority of the time until the Saltzman family got a nursery set up for him, which took them a day or two after they got home. After bringing Alaric home with them from Turkey, the family had some issues with people accepting their son, but the couple didn’t care, Alaric was their son and they had fallen in love with him the moment they held him for the first time.
Alaric had been raised on the road, traveling with both parents to sights they’d gotten funding for from the college they both worked at.
When Alaric was 11, The Saltzman family adopted a little girl who was two weeks old when she joined the family. The name that was given to her by her biological mother was the name the family went with, Mercedes. Alaric became instantly protective of the little girl and helped out however possible. His parents had stopped traveling together by time they adopted her into the family and they took turns leaving for an archaeological excavation. Alaric graduated top of his class in high school and was accepted into Duke University where he spent the next four years working towards a bachelor’s degree in history.
Alaric became obsessed with the supernatural world when he was 16, after finding bones of a half man half wolf — a werewolf — remains while on a dig with his father, and he started to research and document all of what he’s read about and started going back through his journals once he started actually interacting with a species and crossing off what wasn’t true about the species and what was true. Alaric started dating Irene Gutierrez during high school and they got engaged the day they graduated high school and college, going to Duke together. She was supportive of his research into the supernatural world. All she wanted to do was support the man she loved. Alaric had spent the day working on research before heading home late, after picking up dinner. When he got home, he saw a vampire draining his girlfriend of her blood. He tried to fight the vampire but he wasn’t strong enough.
After he watched Irene die, he started working out at a gym and learning to fight, training to become a hunter, to hunt down the vampire that killed his fiancee. He started working as a substitute teacher and Alaric killed his first vampire. A tattoo appeared on his hand after the kill and the more vampires he killed the bigger his tattoo grew.
After a year working as substitute teacher he got offered a job in Mystic Falls, Virginia at the local high school teaching history after the previous history teacher was found dead. He accepted the offer after having read about the “animal attacks” when he moved to town.
He looked into the animal attacks learning they weren’t animals but vampires, and when he started teaching history at Mystic Falls High he instantly became the talk of the school, all the girls had a crush on the hot new teacher, and everyone enjoyed having a teacher closer to their own age.
Alaric started teaching and after a few weeks in Mystic Falls he met the vampire who had killed his girlfriend, Damon Salvatore, when he asked to speak to Stefan’s legal guardian regarding his attendance. After having met Damon, Alaric figured out that Stefan was a vampire just like Damon, so he set his sights on both brothers. He had hunted other vampires to find a lead on the vampire that killed Irene prior to getting the job in Mystic Falls, and he’d learned that Mystic Falls would be the place to look for the vampire that killed Irene. This information is what lead to Alaric accepting the job.
Within a year, Alaric had become good friends with some of his students (Elena Gilbert, Caroline Forbes, Meredith Sulez, Bonnie Bennett, Stefan Salvatore, Tyler Lockwood, and Matt Donovan) and even becoming somewhat friends with the vampire that murdered Irene. By the time the Mikaelson family came to town, Alaric had been helpful towards the group given all this research over the years.
Alaric became an enhanced original vampire created by Esther, a thousand years after she turned her children, in order to destroy the Mikaelson family, using the blood of the human doppelganger — Elena Gilbert — to turn him, binding his life to an indestructible white oak stake. He spends the rest of the year adjusting to life as an indestructible vampire, one that’s even more powerful than most of his friends, becoming the same creature that brought him to Mystic Falls in the first place.
Alaric learns the mark on his arm belongs to the brotherhood of the Five, a magically created group of supernaturally enhanced hunters set out to wipe out the vampire race, and he learns that’s why Esther chose him, she knew he’d be the perfect person to end the Mikaelson’s reign of terror.

Henrik Mikaelson is the youngest of the Mikaelson siblings, born three or four years after his sister Rebekah, and the one that caused his parents to curse his siblings, and himself. He was close with his siblings, not one to fight with any of them, especially his brother Niklaus and his sister Rebekah. Henrik seemed to show no sign of having his own magic, though his mother thought he would as the pregnancy had felt differently then her six other ones, weaker than the other pregnancies because she was being drained of her magic, having it siphoned from her by her unborn son. He didn’t spend as much time with his parents, but more time with his siblings, and much like his other siblings he was scared of his father.
Henrik first saw his elder brothers, Elijah and Niklaus, start fighting when they started showing interest in the same girl, Tatia. Henrik never saw the appeal of the doppelganger but he knew why. Tatia showed everyone in the Mikaelson family love, even if the Mikaelson didn’t really like her. Henrik liked the fact that she treated him nicely though she had both his brothers pitted against each other. As he got older he got more curious about the world around him. And that morbid curiosity led to his untimely death, or so his siblings thought.
He was fourteen when his curiosity got the best of him. It was the night of the full moon. Henrik wanted to see the men shift into beasts. He convinced Niklaus, who was distraught when Tatia chose Elijah, to sneak out with him to see the men turn. Niklaus, not in the right state of mind, took him out that night. They witnessed the shift and a magical moment for the two brothers had turned bad. One of the werewolves saw the brothers and started running after them. Niklaus quickly found a hiding place thinking Henrik was not far behind him, but the youngest male had been caught and the wolf started to maul him. Niklaus watched the wolf wander off before he ran over to his brother’s lifeless body and carried him back into the village, in tears over his error of judgment in bringing the youngest Mikaelson out to see the men shift.
When they got to the village Niklaus screaming for their mother Rebekah came running out seeing her little brother’s body in her older brother’s arms. Shortly Esther and Elijah joined the three as well as Ayanna. Esther pleaded with the other witch about there being a way for them to save him. Ayana knew the boy wasn’t dead, not completely but told them otherwise. She noticed Henrik’s body was healing itself, having siphoned the magic from the werewolves, this observation caused her to cast a spell on the body, duplicating his body to hide what was going on from other witches, him being considered an abomination to witches. But when she didn’t count on Esther turning her remaining children, and her husband, into vampires. To protect them from the wolves and wage a thousand year war on the two species. Esther learned of the fellow witch’s betrayal upon coming to visit her for rings for her children and seeing the boy’s body, but before Esther could do anything Klaus had killed their mother after her betrayal of containing his werewolf side. Ayana woke him up after the Mikaelson’s left the area, returning overseas for awhile, and raised him until he was 21, having watched him marry one of her children. When he was 21, Ayana turned Henrik into a vampire casting a similar spell to Esther’s but using the blood of his wife - one of her daughter’s - later known to be Bennett blood.
When Henrik awoke into the transition state, now the physical age of 21 , he felt the insatiable need to feed, and his first victim was Ayana, whom before he fed on gave him a daylight ring that looked just like his siblings, and the villagers that inhabited the area she had moved herself, and him, to. When he drained Ayana of her blood he had also drained her of her magic, gaining a thirst for both blood and magic. Because he was a siphoner, when he drained Ayana of her magic he was able to use stronger spells than he had as a human. The thirst didn’t seem to fade as he made his way through the village. He had fallen asleep the first night after he slaughtered the village and dreamed of his mother. Henrik, in the dream state, hugged his mother tightly before she pushed him away from her a bit before telling him that he cannot have any contact with his siblings not until she is sure they have gotten used to the new life she’s given them. She gave all of her children a new life, a better life than what would have been promised to them had they stayed human in the village they settled in.
Over the course of the past thousand years Henrik has bounced around all over the world, not having anything or anyone tying him down to one place. During the late 15th Century he spent time in Spain where in late 1491/early 1492 he fell in love with Isabella of Aragon, the daughter of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, who were the leaders of Spain at the time. In order to grant Isabella the life she was used to, life as a royal, and the life she wanted, marriage and motherhood, Henrik had to leave. He couldn’t provide her with those luxuries. He joined Christopher Columbus’s crew to travel to the New World, where he had been born through winding up exploring the Gulf. He stayed for all four voyages under the alias of Henri, working as a translator and later becoming a captain on one of the three ships that made the voyages.
After the voyages were over, Henrik had become in love with life on the sea and had become a pirate captain located in the Caribbeans. His crew respected him, and some even feared him executing a crew member in front of them all for questioning the orders he had given the person. He then told the rest of the crew that if they followed the other’s example and questioned him they would meet a similar fate, and his crew never questioned him - nor was there a mutiny among his people. He remained captain of his ship until he was arrested and hanged for high treason and piracy. He, of course, survived but it was the perfect way to end his life as a pirate. He got on a ship and went back to England arriving in 1590, taking up the alias of William Shakespeare, though once arriving in England compelling a young man to be him in the public’s eye. He was also tutored by his brother Klaus Mikaelson keeping the facade up and not wanting his brother to know it was him, especially after seeing what his brother had become. He kept the alias up even after the man who he had compelled had died in his 50s. He wrote The Two Noble Kinsmen which wasn’t printed until after the death of the male he had pretended to be Shakespeare. He kept writing even after that but stopped publishing his stuff, keeping them with him as he traveled around.
After England he traveled around a bit before winding up in Austria during the 18th Century where he started to learn to compose music under Mozart with the alias of Alexander Goss. Once he felt he learned all he could he changed his last name before he started to learn under Beethoven at the beginning of the 19th Century, as Alexander Voigt, becoming an assistant helping the composer as his hearing started to go. Once Beethoven had lost his hearing all together Henrik left Austria and found his way to Russia where he became Dmitri Petrov where he learned to compose under Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to master yet another style of composing music. He stayed in Russia until after the fall of the Romanov family. He turned Anastasia, the 17 year old heiress, after the two had fallen in love with each other.
He was a guard to the family during their time ‘out of the spotlight’ when he fell in love with her. He had learned of what was to become of her and gave her his blood, only with her approval, and after her assassination she became a vampire. Making her a daylight ring after they fled Russia so she could travel during the daytime, they sailed to the United States. Anastasia was the only person in Russia to have known the real Henrik, not the man he was pretending to be Dmitri.
Upon coming to the United States during the 1920s he got into the bootlegging business, teaching his girlfriend how to shoot a gun, in case she ever needed to use it, though she could just use her vampire abilities to defend herself. Anastasia leaned towards being more of a monster then Henrik had liked and the two split and Henrik traveled down to New Orleans where he met a young vampire named Marcel Gerard. The two quickly became friends as Henrik was the supplier, bringing in his own bourbon from the distillery he had started outside of Memphis, for Marcel’s speakeasy. Henrik went by the name Rik around Marcel, glad that he chose that alias rather than going by Henrik like he originally intended, once he learned Marcel was very much linked to not one, but four of his siblings and had met an additional sibling. And that he had missed them by about a year. He stayed in New Orleans until 1940.
Once leaving New Orleans he traveled to Greece where he found a vineyard on a mountain side that was failing, the owners were wasting the money on stuff they didn’t need. So he bought it from them, having earned money over the years from his various adventures. He started making wine and got into the wine business, while running his bourbon distillery from Greece. Once he found someone to manage the vineyard he left and traveled back to Italy, five years after taking over the vineyard, and opened a hotel in a building he had once been living in when he last was there, and made it into a hotel. He stayed for five years, to the point where it was making a profit, and then traveled to New York, doing the same there before going to Florida and opening a hotel on the beach there, along with a club, staying there for ten years until both were making a profit and staying that way. Then he traveled to Las Vegas where he opened a hotel and casino. He stayed for five years before he saved a young female, a siphoner just like he was, which when she completed her transition she was like him, a vampire/witch hybrid.
Rosemary followed Henrik out of Las Vegas once the hotel and casino were up and running, making a profit and leaving them in the hands of a trustworthy manager. They traveled to Tokyo, where they’ve been since 1990, opening up another hotel and staying until Henrik got a phone call one night while he was working from his mother telling him it was time for him to come home to the family. Before he could ask where she hung up and soon a text message appeared with coordinates and he figured out where he was supposed to go.

andie nash is the daughter of bobby nash via an ex girlfriend. born october 26th 1992, andie was raised by her mom until she was 3 when her mom died in a car accident on christmas eve. bobby's firestation in st paul responded to the accident, a car going off the ledge into a lake, ice cold and iced over. her mother was dead on impact and the firefighters got the toddler out before her mother and bobby recognized his ex and did the math for the toddler, realizing he was her father.
she spent the rest of the year with her dad before going into her grandfather's custody where she remained for the following three years, seeing bobby once a month to get to know him. when she was 6 her grandfather got diagnosed with cancer, so he asked bobby to start picking her up from school on thursdays and taking her to her ice skating lessons while he had chemotherapy. within a few months, the thursday nights became picking her up on thursdays and keeping her for the whole weekend, as her grandfather needed the time to regain his strength. and by the time she was 7 her grandfather passed away from cancer and he left her to bobby, knowing his daughter should have done that in the first place.
by the time andie was 13, she had a stepmother and two half siblings, and she was on route to be an olypmic skater. but after her parents hired a private coach, andie was sexually assaulted by him on multiple occasions and wound up pregnant. she gave birth to a little boy, jamie nash, and while her stepmother wanted to give the baby up, bobby told andie if she wanted to keep him he'd help her. so she did.
she graduated high school at 16 thanks to independent studies while she was skating and competing. she started working to support her child herself and when she was a few months from 18 she joined the fire academy, and became a firefighter like the rest of the nash family.
andie builds a career in the st paul fire department until her dad's apartment catches on fire, then she's injured breaking her leg during the fire, her firehouse having been the ones responding, as a floor collapsed beneath her feet. she blamed bobby for it at first, pushing him away and telling him she wanted nothing to do with him.
even though she is not like her father, every house she ended up in figured she was so no one allowed her to advance and no one wanted to work with her until she finally got a young captain that knew not to judge someone based off their family, he promoted her to the much deserved lieutenant position where she also returned to the fire academy to learn the paramedic side to make the promotion easier.
the captain however gets transferred and the newer captain is like all the rest. and when she reconnects with her father, he convinces her to move to la, where he has a spot for her in his firehouse, where no one will judge her based off her father's past.
andie ended up looking into the fire and learned that the owner of the apartment building had taken shortcuts to get the building up faster, and to get a profit faster, she knew while it was her dad's addiction that forgot to turn the heater off the fire wouldn't have been as extreme if the materials used in the building weren't cheap and the fire sprinklers were hooked up like they were supposed to be. so she moves to la to rebuild her relationship with the only family she has, dragging her son with her.

Jamie Scott is the son of Nathan and Haley Scott and older brother of Lydia. He was born on their graduation day at about the same time as his cousin, being the half-sister of his uncle — Lucas Scott, Lily Roe Scott. He was named after his godfather and uncle, Lucas Scott, while Brooke Davis takes the role of his godmother. All of Nathan and Haley's friends are close to Jamie and he sees them all as aunts and uncles. Jamie has a great adoration of his father and aspired to be like him, which was something that often inspired Nathan to do his best.
During her senior year at Tree Hill High School, Haley James Scott became pregnant. Although at first anxious with having a child at such a young age, both Haley and Nathan Scott grew fond of the idea and excited for the birth of their child. During her pregnancy, Haley began having serious pains in her stomach which forced her to collapse. As she was rushed to the hospital, the doctor assured her that everything was all right with her child and confirmed her child would be a boy, that the will name: James Lucas Scott. This news pushed Nathan to win the High School State Championship. Trying to get the best start to her child's life, Haley played Jamie classical music whilst pregnant, but unknown to her, Nathan played rap music to his child when she fell asleep, possibly relating to Jamie's love of hip-hop and rap music in his childhood.
On the day of Nathan and Haley's graduation, June 13th, Haley went into labor during her valedictorian speech. She was forced to stop her speech halfway through and was rushed into Tree Hill Hospital. At the hospital, Haley gave birth to James Lucas Scott, named after his mother's maiden name and his uncle's first name. After taking Jamie home, he was settled into a cot with his favorite cuddly giraffe and a bear wearing a Raven's jersey. His parents soon found out that Jamie would only settle for rap music, much to Nathan's happiness. Haley and Nathan also invited Brooke Davis and Lucas Scott to be his godparents, which they happily accepted. With this in mind, Lucas accepted a coaching assistant position for Nathan's college basketball team so he can be to Jamie what his Uncle Keith was to him, which Haley was more than pleased about.
During their college years, Jamie was raised by his parents and uncle while they went to college. He was present when his father won his national basketball championship. His first word was ball after he was prompted by Nathan to say the word ball while Haley prompted him to say the word guitar. Jamie loves basketball, has loved it for years. While Jamie loved his father and looked up to him, he tended to be a mama’s boy after his father had his accident.
Jamie loved basketball but after Nathan’s accident he didn’t want Jamie playing basketball, often finding himself scared of his father after he gets drunk and starts breaking his trophies and Jamie finds refuge in his mom’s arms. After Nathan gets his life back together, following him not having been there for his soap box derby, he starts showing his son how to not be afraid. And they start playing basketball together again. For a while, Jamie was under the care of a nanny by the name of Carrie, who he’d grown close to. She pretends he is her son and he begins to see her as his mom. Carrie was fired because of this bond. Jamie got mad at his mom for this and told her he hates her and that he wished Carrie was his real mom. Jamie got over his feelings for Carrie.
During this time frame, his mom caught his father in the shower with Carrie and she kicked Carrie out and was mad at Nathan, and Jamie had been outside by the pool unattended and he fell into the pool, and nearly drowned. Nathan and Haley looked out the window to see their four year old son lying face down in the pool. Nathan rushes to his aid, jumping into the pool, and pulling his son out of the pool. Haley holds Jamie in her arms after he’s pulled out and breathing again, she tells Nathan she wants a divorce, angry at what all has happened between them over the past six months. Their separation upsets him and he’s frequently asking Haley when daddy is coming home. During Lucas and Lindsey’s party all Jamie wanted to do is play guitar hero with his family and was upset when they don’t so instead he gets Skills (who Jamie was very close to - considering him an Uncle) to play with him. Skills always tries to make Jamie feel like one of the boys, Haley becomes nervous over the roughhousing and reminds Skills that Jamie is just a little boy, to which Skills replies that he’s never lost sight of how little he is.
Jamie was kidnapped by Carrie on Lucas’ wedding day, after he asks Skills to go to the bathroom and Carrie takes him to a motel so she can dye his hair and take him away with her. But Dan saw her take his grandson and followed them to the motel. When Carrie left the motel — to buy hair dye she’d forgotten to get before grabbing him — Dan broke into her hotel room and saved Jamie, returning him home. Jamie tells his parents that Grandpa Dan saved him and brought him home. After falling into the pool and nearly drowning Jamie has developed a fear of the pool and doesn’t go in the pool anymore. With his parents’ help he does get back in the water, but that underlying fear never left.
Jamie befriends one of his mom’s high school students Quentin Fields, otherwise known as Q, and they become best friends until he is shot and killed. His parents are the ones who break the news of his death. He is upset but wants to go to the funeral, where he lays a red cape he made for Quentin on his coffin. Jamie becomes friends with Quentin’s younger brother who is the same age as Jamie, Andre and they both help each other grieve for Q.
Haley gets a call one day from a nurse at Tree Hill Hospital informing her that Dan is dying. Knowing Jamie didn’t get a chance to say goodbye to his grandfather, she takes him to see Dan. Haley didn’t know that it was Carrie calling, who had kidnapped Dan and was using him to lure Jamie.
Once at the hospital, Haley tells Jamie to wait in the car and goes inside, Carrie then knocks her unconscious. Right after, Carrie goes out to the car and lures Jamie to come out, but Jamie screams and tries to ignore her. So she grabs a sledgehammer to smash the glass windows of the car. As she is smashing the window, Jamie gets out the other side of the car and runs into the cornfields to get away from Carrie. Haley wakes up and goes looking for Jamie and realizes where he is when she hears Carrie calling to him. Haley finds him first and makes sure he’s okay, and they take off to hide from Carrie before Nathan calls, which alerts Carrie to where they are. But before Carrie can get to them Deb knocks her out with a wine bottle. When Carrie regains consciousness she comes at Haley with an axe but Dan points a gun at her to stop, and ends up killing her.
Jamie seemed to be a cheery kid, given the circumstances that had been handed to him, and determined to change others’ lives, helping them to be the best versions of themselves — seeing great potential in everyone he meets.
When Jamie is 8, his maternal grandmother, Lydia James, passed away, leaving his mom heartbroken and depressed. She starts lashing out at her loved ones, including Jamie, so his aunt Quinn takes him out to take his mind off of things. Jamie gets braces and strongly dislikes them and wants them removed but Haley convinces him by wearing ugly fake teeth, getting him to agree to keep them on. After a school spelling bee, Jamie goes out with his friends and teacher Miss Lauren and was involved in an accident during a big thunderstorm. Miss Lauren’s car is tipped over to its side. Jamie’s seatbelt is stuck and Brooke saves Miss Lauren and Chuck before trying to free Jamie when the car is knocked off the bridge, the car that hits them drives away after into the river, the levee breaks almost drowning Brooke and Jamie before they are saved.
James is very fond of his little sister, Lydia — named after Grandma Lydia — and helps his parents take care of her, especially when Nathan is traveling for work. Before his sister was born, he gave his mom a baseball with a message to Lydia saying how he can’t wait to play catch with her.
Following his mom and Uncle Luke’s traditions, he made a prediction at the start of the school year when he was 9 that he would beat Nathan’s score record. Each year James adds a new prediction, keeping the tradition his mom and uncle had.
Jamie always admired his father, especially for his career and supported him throughout it and like most Scott's, Jamie had a natural talent for the sport. Like his mother, Jamie is intelligent and after completing a test at his school, St. James Day School, his teacher revealed that his test scores were through the roof and they should consider sending Jamie to the gifted and talented school. They asked Oppenheimer School for the Gifted if they were interested in him. But after visiting the school Jamie decided to remain at his current school with his friends.
Jamie is later seen as a grown up teenager playing basketball with the number 12 on his back, having his favorite number as his jersey number. Jamie quickly becomes the leading scorer on the varsity team — like Nathan was & like Lucas was as well. And like his mom, he worked in the tutoring center, helping other students get their grades up, and he also worked at Karen’s Cafe — which is owned by his mom and his Aunt Brooke — even though he didn’t really need to. The only thing he didn’t inherit from his mom is her musical talent, he got the athletic genes from his father, playing baseball during basketball’s offseason. Jamie keeps himself very busy, and while his parents worried it would affect his grades, he didn’t let it.
At the age of 14, James was diagnosed with PTSD, due to all the events tied with Carrie and his two times he’d almost drowned, as�� well as Panic Disorder and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. He was given SSRIs, antidepressants, and anxiolytics for all three. Haley and Nathan had worried when he was younger on how the events would affect him, but he hadn’t let them see that anything was wrong with him, that he had let that get to him. After this diagnosis, his parents got him Lucky, a dalmatian that someone had trained to handle anxiety and PTSD. Lucky also became his training partner during the offseason so he can stay in shape, seeing as how dalmatians are extremely active to begin with.
When James was 16, he was experiencing shortness of breath, fatigue after exercising for a long period of time, and chest pains. He hadn’t told his parents about what he was experiencing, he’d chalked it up to anxiety and stress. It wasn’t until he’d fainted outside of the house as he returned from a run, the other symptoms having been present when he walked up the driveway. When he fainted Lucky ran into the house and dragged Haley out to see her son passed out on the driveway. Haley called 9-1-1 and did as the dispatcher told her until paramedics arrived at their house. They get him to the hospital and get him stable and Nathan and Haley wait with Lydia for the doctors to come out. The nurse came out to bring them to James’ room to see him resting, asleep, with a heart monitor attached to him. When the doctor walked in he told them that James had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and when the doctor went to explain what it was Nathan stopped him. Nathan said he knew what it was, afterall his brother and father both had been diagnosed with the heart condition.
When James woke up, his parents told him what the doctor told them his diagnosis was. Nathan explained what it meant for his basketball career, and that he could still play, but he had to be on his medication if he wanted to keep playing. And Jamie wanted to keep playing, so he added a beta blocker medication and an antihypertensive medication to the medications he was already taking. While the medications slowed him down, he still gave it his all, never once stopping taking his medication in favor of the sport.
He continued to wow everyone with his determination for the sport, but James knew he wouldn’t be able to play basketball professionally, so he seeked advice from the one person that had been in his shoes before, his godfather & uncle Lucas — he told him to find something that he loves, aside from basketball, and Jamie looks at his uncle over the FaceTime call, and he thought about what he wanted to do aside from basketball, he didn’t want to be an agent like his father and he wasn’t cut out to be a musician like his mom. He remembers his mom being a teacher, and he loves tutoring, so part of him thought he’d be a good teacher but after a creative writing assignment, he learned he actually was a decent writer. But he didn’t think he’d be that good at it.
James kept playing in high school, beating his father’s scoring title, and having his jersey number retired when he graduated high school. Jamie got offered a scholarship to Duke University for basketball and academics. Duke was where Nathan was going to go before they found out about his point shaving. James went to college there, originally under an undetermined major before taking a few creative writing classes his second semester of his freshman year and fell in love with it. His sophomore year he met up with his counselor and decided on a creative writing major. When he told his parents, his dad made the joke to Haley that maybe he really was Luke’s kid, but they have so many things in common, Jamie is just finding himself outside of basketball like Lucas had to. She also points out that like Lucas, he had his dreams ripped out from underneath him, just like Nathan did when he got into a bar fight and that he needs to find himself without them stepping in the way. They raised a good kid, and they can’t keep making choices for him, he’s an adult.
Jamie’s first novel was published while he was still in college, it was a fiction novel based on his experience as a child with Carrie. He changed the names of the characters and took a different turn to it, and started using his full name for his professional career — James Lucas Scott — and his career took off. He was able to do a semester of his junior year coursework online while he went on a national book tour and when he came back for basketball season he settled into the routine of being a normal college student. During his senior year, he released a second book, a sequel to the first about the kid’s life as a teen and young adult — again changing details in the book from his own experiences — and when asked where the inspiration came from he lied about it, said it was just a story he’d been curious about, and threw in the statistics that most kidnappings are done by someone the kid knows and not a stranger, and that no matter how old the child was it still affects them growing up. He put off doing a book tour for the second one until after he graduated from college, wanting to finish his degree first.
Jamie’s parents were worried about him using his personal life to write about but it was Lucas who pointed out he’d done the same thing, and was a best-selling author for it, and that the difference between the two is that Jamie changed the names and the facts in the book so it couldn’t be connected back to him. And that given all that he’s been through, maybe it’s a good way for him to manage things, it’s like him writing a journal about how he feels.
Jamie has two best selling books by the time he’s 21, whereas Luke only had the one, and Luke — who is a best selling author of multiple books — has spoken out about how proud he is of his nephew making a career for himself, how he seems to surpass his entire family, first by breaking the scoring record for his high school basketball team, by getting two scholarships to his father’s dream college, and now surpassing his uncle’s literary career when his uncle was his age.
Jamie doesn’t live in Tree Hill as an adult, he comes home to visit on holidays (usually) and whenever he’s missing his parents, and his sister Lydia.

Prudence Johnna Halliwell was the first born daughter of Phoebe Halliwell and her husband Coop. She is a cupid-witch and has inherited magical genes from both her parents. As a first born witch P.J. is more powerful than her younger sisters, much like her aunt Prue was and much like her cousin Wyatt is. Born November 16th 2007, PJ was the last of the Halliwell cousins born in 2007. Coop, a Cupid, was sent by the Elders to help Phoebe repair her love life, as she had lost interest having given it up so many times for the greater good. Not only had Phoebe lost faith in love and her powers, but she’d also lost faith that she would ever have the daughter she saw in the future.
Her parents’ marriage and her eventual birth was almost unrealized, as her parents kept denying their feelings for each other to avoid heartache. As cupids are normally not allowed to have relationships with their charges, whether mortal or magical, as it is deemed to be too complicated and dangerous by the Elders. However, the Elders made an exception for Phoebe and Coop, due to everything they put her through over the years, so their relationship was not forbidden. After dating for a few months, Coop proposed to Phoebe and were later married by an Angel of Destiny at the newly regained Magic School.
Phoebe and Coop conceived P.J. while they were on their honeymoon, resulting in her birth in late 2007. Phoebe decided to continue the tradition of giving Halliwell children names that begin with “P”, Phoebe named her daughter Prudence after her late sister, Prue. P.J. came into her powers about three months after her birth. Her mother was getting ready to leave for work when the baby beamed her back into the house and her mother got jealous and thought she had a better power, revealing to her parents that she had come into her powers. P.J. came into her powers around the same time as her cousin Melinda, yet faster than her other cousins, Kat and Tamora, even though they were much older than her. About a year after she first came into her powers, P.J.’s remote beaming power grew, enabling her to beam herself.
As P.J. as she got older came into more of her powers. Like her mother, PJ was always meant to be an empath, and being a cupid expanded on that. Not only could she sense the emotions of those around her but due to her being a cupid she can also sense who the emotion is connected to - like if someone is angry at someone else she’s able to see who the emotion is directed to. Like her mother, PJ got the power of Premonition and as she got older her powers developed, her premonitions became stronger. Her third ability was telepathy, reading the minds of those around her.
As a daughter of a cupid there are some abilities that come from her father as well. She’s able to find love for people. For her she’s able to find possible romantic matches based off the auras she sees coming off of people, she uses the auras to start matching them together and gets to know those she’s matching. Phoebe didn’t want her daughters to go to magic school, not at first. She wanted her daughters to have a normal education. Learn everything that a mortal should learn. PJ loved being part of the world, even if it meant hiding part of her. she made friends with the mortals she went to school with.
PJ decided to try to go to college in the mortal realm and go towards a psychology degree with a minor in business while still doing her duties as the next Charmed Ones and as a cupid. While in college she got an internship at a radio station where she later wound up working after graduation - running a talk show where she gives advice on love, sex, and relationships with a male co-host.
While working at the radio station, PJ had a short-lived relationship with her co-host Ibrahim Abaza that resulted in her becoming pregnant and leaving her job for a few months (the duration of her pregnancy) to open up her own matchmaking service, called Cupid’s Arrow. After the business was open and she had a few successful clients, PJ gave birth to Pax Halliwell, who showed having the same powers as her aunt Prue.

kayce parson was born and raised in sheridan, wyoming, twin to brother kit, and younger brother to quinn parson. when kayce was five years old, his parents welcomed his younger sister, dorothy, whom everyone called dot. dot looked more like kayce than like kit, with the same light brown hair that he had, and the same hair that soaked up the sun to naturally lighten. kayce and his three siblings were close, and like their parents they were born werewolves. three years after dot was born, their parents welcomed their final child, max, born prematurely not only for a human but for a werewolf as well.
when kayce was 12, the military found out about werewolves and found the pack his family was a part of and hunted them, capturing or killing any werewolf in sight (*and humans alike*), kayce had been with his older sister quinn when the military found them and shot both of them, killing quinn and severly injuring kayce. he managed to get away from the military and find his twin brother, both having a strong bond as twin wolves, and kit, dorothy, max, and kayce all got away.
kayce was barely alive when they got to bozeman montana, five days later, and his body was fighting an unknown infection by the time they found another werewolf pack that seemed welcoming. the pack alpha brought them in, treated their injuries, their malnutrition, and dehydration. kayce took the longest to recover from the attack and the trip and was the only of his siblings to receive the pack's brand, meaning he belonged to them, and that he owed them his life. his siblings would be free to leave but kayce was forever cemented into the pack.
due to the condition kayce was in when he arrived in bozeman, and joined his new pack, kayce was abused and mistreated by the alpha and other betas in the pack - except his siblings. the only one outside of his family that hadn't was a human who had known about the pack's existence, and her family knew as well, often aiding them when injured. he grew close to her and she'd witnessed him shift and helped him through it. she was the only person he trusted outside of his siblings. he'd trusted her so much that he had sex with her while he was 15.
when kayce turned 16, he lost it and challenged the alpha, tired of the abuse and the treatment he was receiving, it was no life for a teenager, or a werewolf, and he'd been fed up with it. he won the challenge — one no one (especially him) thought he would — and killed his alpha, taking over the mantle of the pack's alpha, and started to change the pack for the better. a couple of years later, kayce found a baby at his door with a note saying the newborn girl was his, and that the one human he'd learned to trust had left town, abandoning their child. he never knew why she had done it, but he started to not let anyone in, even keeping his family at arms length.
kayce was alpha for two years before his human girlfriend got pregnant and fled, leaving him with a child to take care of and a pack.
he is still the alpha of his pack, having had no challenges since he was sixteen when other wolves thought he was stronger and has been the only alpha to not have claimed a mate.

Liam and Celia are the twins of Buffy Summers and Angel. Conceived on Buffy’s 17th birthday, the same night Angel lost his soul in a moment of pure happiness. A couple of months later, before Buffy had sacrificed Angel to put Acathla back in his resting state, she found out she was two and a half months pregnant. After she killed angel and ran away to los angeles she’d experienced a full term pregnancy with twins. She’d seen bits of Angel in both of them when she held them at the hospital. knowing she wasn’t ready to be a mom, and starting to learn to care for herself. the parents that adopted the twins knew that the supernatural world existed, they had known her former watcher, merrick, and were trying to have kids. the couple were unsuccessful and were told they wouldn’t be able to have children of their own, so they adopted buffy’s twins. buffy had made one request when they agreed to adopt the twins, buffy got to give them names. she’d expected that these would be her only chance to have children. buffy never thought she’d ever live long enough to go to college, let alone ever get the chance to marry and have children, so she wanted to name the children she’d conceived with her first love. She named the boy Liam, after Angel, and she named the girl Celia, after the cousin she’d watched die when she was a child. the valentine’s agreed to the girl’s request, letting her name the children. they knew the stories of the slayer, how short their lives generally are, they wanted her to have some connection to the children she was giving up for adoption.
Growing up in Los Angeles, Liam and Celia were close to their adoptive parents, not really knowing when they were younger that they were adopted. The Valentine’s kept that they adopted the twins a secret from them, telling everyone around them not to let the twins know. That for their own safety they were better off not knowing that they were adopted. They knew that if Liam and Celia found out that they were adopted, they would go looking for their biological parents, and that would put them in danger. The Valentine’s also kept a close eye on both children, being the children of a vampire, to see exactly what they would be capable of.
When the twins were eight, they first experienced blood lust for the first time. Maggie, their adoptive mother, had taken them to the park and while they had been playing with other children, a child had fallen off the monkey bars and broke their arm. the twins stood on the playground looking down at the child as their arm bled, the child’s parents sweeping them up to rush them to the hospital. they were mesmerized by the blood and fangs took place of their teeth momentarily as they went towards the blood that was left behind. Maggie swept them away, ending their trip to the park. They never went back to the park, Maggie and�� Alan having bought a playground set for their house. While they allowed their children to attend public school, any time spent with friends they’d made was to be spent in Maggie and Alan’s care. Parents thought they were just being overprotective, but they were looking to protect the other kids over their own. Alan, having been part of the watcher’s council as well, started training both children, giving them a way to test exactly what the children were capable of, test how strong they were.
As Liam and Celia got older, more of their father’s side started showing itself, they started becoming more and more sensitive to sunlight, and the crosses around the house started hurting them. Their lust for blood started getting stronger, and they started to get weaker without blood. Alan noticed that not only did they have similar abilities to vampires, he also took note of some special abilities the twins had shown over the years. Liam and Celia having always been able to find each other during hide and seek as little kids, and always seemed to be having private conversations, or feeling each other’s pain & emotions. Alan kept a journal of everything he and his wife had witnessed over the years from the twins. They intended to share the knowledge with the Watcher’s council and with Buffy & Rupert Giles — Buffy’s watcher — so that everyone had the knowledge of what dhampirs were capable of. But as Celia got older, Alan saw signs of her being a potential slayer, thinking it was passed down from Buffy. But that meant that her existence had to have been foreseen, that the higher powers had foreseen a slayer and a vampire having a child together. He trained both of them to hunt evil, even if some people would see them as evil themselves. Alan liked to point out that they had heartbeats, that they had souls, and they were inherently good.
when Liam and Celia were eleven, Alan and Maggie were killed by vampires. They were to go into foster care if social services couldn’t find any family. Liam and Celia found the journals that their parents kept, including the one that mentioned that they were adopted, but they kept their biological parents' names out of the journals. they also found all the observations about them that they had made, the notes on their abilities. they packed their journals up and took them when they got placed into a foster home, staying in their first home for two years before their foster parents were killed by a vampire. This vampire went to kill them too, but Celia had killed him before he could kill them, pushing a leg that was broken off a chair into his heart, watching him turn to dust. for the next four months, they lived in another foster home until liam broke their foster father’s arm defending him and his sister from being abused by him. liam didn’t get charged with anything since he was defending himself, and they got placed into a group home temporarily. their social worker didn’t want to separate them, but after a year in a group home, their social worker had to separate them, no couple wanted to take on two children. so at fourteen, liam and celia were separated for the first time since they were born. they spent the next two years in different foster homes on different sides of the city.
at sixteen, liam and celia were finally reunited. having foster parents that were more than willing to take in two children to keep siblings together. little known to the pair, the mother had been a retired member of the watcher’s council prior to it’s fall, and she’d known alan. she had copies of his journals about them, and knew what to expect. When they entered their home, she continued with their training, assuming that they would be rusty. everything alan had taught them came back to them instantly as they were able to defend themselves against her training attacks. their foster mother doubled as celia’s watcher when she was activated a month into living with them.
at eighteen, both liam and celia had the taste of human blood. their foster mom having sent celia on patrol with liam to back her up, they had encountered a vampire who hit a vein in their victim and it sprayed across the two, the blood getting into their mouths. liam and celia started craving blood to the point that their foster mom had been getting blood bags for them and diluting it with their drinks on a daily basis. neither of the twins could stomach the diluted blood, it wasn’t enough to sustain them, so they started to get weaker until they started drinking straight from the bags. their foster mother warned them on drinking blood often, the more they drank it the more vampire like they would become. celia tried not to drink as much, knowing that she’d become the thing she’s been destined to hunt while liam ignored their foster mother and started drinking more blood, finishing off his sister’s blood bags when she’d stopped drinking them.
wanting to know about where they come from, who their birth parents are, and wanting answers, liam started digging through what was left of their birth parents’ belongings & looking through their foster mother’s belongings as well to see if she’d had any clue about who their birth parents were. liam had found an old email from alan on her computer, and sent to other people as well, talking about twins they’d adopted, twins born to a slayer and a vampire with a soul, how the vampire had lost his soul during a moment of pure happiness with said slayer, and said slayer had killed him once his soul had been restored. liam printed the email and showed it to celia, telling her that this was them that their father had been talking about. that their father had known who their parents were. that this email had to help them find their birth parents. celia wanted to find their birth parents too, she wanted to know what was missing. so they started searching for them, running away from their foster home, and abandoning celia’s watcher to track down their birth parents

Sam and Dean Winchester took a normal supernatural case in a small town in Nebraska. They were there for about five days and while they were there Dean had a short lived romance with Lauren James, a waitress at one of the dive bars in the city. Lauren and Dean had sex the last night the Winchesters were in the small town. Sometime before the couple actually had sex, Michael had managed to possess the female in order to conceive a child after Michael had learned about Lucifer conceived a child a few months prior and wanted to even the field, create a child that would be powerful enough to stand against his younger brother’s unborn child and against his younger brother herself. And having a child with his true vessel - who had been nicknamed Michael’s Sword - the archangel felt the child would be even stronger than with any human. Michael knew that in order for the child to be both Michael’s and Dean’s, Michael would have to possess a female.
Michael was able to keep possession of Lauren for the first two months of her pregnancy with Hensley, Hensley expelling the archangel from the temporary vessel to protect her mother from the damage hosting an archangel was causing the human that wasn’t supposed to home Michael. Lauren was protected by her child through the remainder of the pregnancy.
Lauren had family in Lawrence, Kansas so she had moved to be close to her family when the baby was born to help raise the child on her own. She’d gotten an apartment and prepared a nursery for her child, which she later learned was a little girl, who she decided to name Hensley - she wanted something unique for her unborn daughter. Lauren had a feeling that she wasn’t going to survive childbirth, so she wrote a letter to her unborn daughter about her father, and how to find him if she’s not around when she’s wanting to find him. Lauren had gone into labor May 17, 2017 induced by the effects of Jack being born. Lauren had died shortly after giving birth to Hensley with the assistance of a midwife - one familiar with the supernatural world, whose birth certificate read Hensley James Winchester. The midwife had taken care of Hensley for a couple of months before Michael, in the vessel of another human, had shown up to take the baby away. The midwife that had raised Hensley for the first few months had managed to keep Michael away from the two month old and when she picked up the baby she told her they needed to find a way to keep her safe, from Michael, from the other angels, and from anyone that would want to harm her.
Hensley aged herself to help protect herself, and protect the midwife that had been raising her and she expelled Michael from the human vessel once again. She’d aged to the age of 19 and managed to age herself to look like her mortal parents. The midwife had given her the letter from her mother, saying that she hopes she finds her family, as well as a picture of her parents and her birth certificate with her father’s name on it

dhampirs fangs aren’t as sharp as a vampire. dhampirs come into their abilities when they are thirteen. sunlight cannot kill them, though they are sensitive to sunlight. they age until they reach the age group of 18 - 25, or when they start drinking blood on a regular basis. can reproduce. do not need to be invited into someone’s home like their fathers. they can taste food but it’s bland. they crave blood if exposed to fresh blood, or get a taste of it.
dhampirs are very rare, so rare that no book has an actual record of them existing. Due to their species being rare, no one knows any way to stop them or what they are capable of and aren’t capable of. Starting with conception, dhampirs were thought to not be able to exist as everyone assumed that vampires weren’t capable of reproducing. Vampires, however, are capable of reproducing, it is just rare for them to actually have a child with a human. Some say that the reason vampires cannot reproduce is due to the fact that they don’t have souls. Others say it’s because they are dead and their reproductive system doesn’t work anymore. There is no real explanation to why dhampirs can come to exist. It could also be because humans are the vampire's primary source of food, and vampires only see them as such. Regardless of how come they are rare, or what makes it possible for them to exist, dhampirs do in fact exist.
when a dhampir is conceived, the pregnancy itself goes pretty fast. A normal human pregnancy takes the span of nine months for the baby (or babies) to fully develop. A dhampir takes at most five months to develop in the womb. Like human twins, dhampir twins usually are born a month earlier than singular babies. Labor is the same regardless of the baby being human or dhampir, there isn’t a difference between how the baby is born as their mother is human. When the baby is born, they appear human, and they need the same nutrients that a normal human baby. dhampirs also age at the same rate as a normal human baby.
dhampirs appear to be human, not having the same weaknesses as their father. While a dhampir can die a human death, a dhampir would become a vampire at their death. the only sure way to kill a dhampir without them turning into a vampire is by cutting off their head. They are sensitive to sunlight — but sunlight doesn’t kill them like it would their father. Like their father, they have to be invited into one’s home, and holy objects can cause harm to them, but dhampirs can endure the harm of holy objects after constant exposure to them. As for, reflections, dhampirs take after their mothers on this field. Dhampirs appear to be more human than their fathers.
while dhampirs do lust for blood, they don’t need blood to survive. Once a dhampir tastes blood though they stop aging altogether, and the blood lust starts to take over and the dhampir will start to take after their father more than their mother, in most cases they start to lose their humanity altogether. When a dhampir vamps out, their face doesn’t change like their father’s, they do grow fangs but appearance wise, one would think they are wearing halloween fangs instead of actually being a dhampir.
dhampirs, like vampires, have superhuman strength, speed, agility, reflexes, stamina, and durability. Their senses are heightened (smell, hearing, and night vision) and they heal faster than a normal human. Their fangs aren’t razor sharp like their father’s would be, they have a duller tip & the tip of their fangs tend to be a little more round. They do not have the same innate hand to hand combat skills, but can be trained to have such skills. They can die a human death, that leads to them being full vampire, and are immune to telepathy.
some rare powers, or unusual, can be inherited as well, though some are unsure if it’s part of their human blood or their vampire blood that allows the dhampir access to these powers.(ie. being able to hypnotize victims, psychic links or powers — like precognition and empathy.

ani solo-organa is the daughter of leia organa and han solo, younger sister to ben solo. she was trained by her uncle luke to use the force and was who he worried most about turning to the dark side as she was morally ambiguous than ben had been.
during ben's slaughter of the new jedi academy, she fought her brother, losing her right arm, and hearing in her right ear, in the battle and being left for dead after turning down his offer to join the darkside and they'd rule together.
han found her, and got her to the falcoln where her parents decided to take her as far away from ben as possible, let him believe he killed his sister in the battle, and raise her to not use the force.
she was taken to naboo, the home planet of her maternal grandmother, where her arm was replaced with a robotic arm, and then she was raised by her distant family on naboo. she, later, joins her father as a smuggler, learning to hide her identity as a solo or organa, and becoming a smuggler on her own, hiding her knowledge of the force and becoming a better smuggler than her father

she does not cheat on finn with his best friend. instead, puck gets her drunk, and finn drunk as well, and the couple have sex, which does result in quinn�� becoming pregnant. (alternatively ; she hooks up with puck and then sleeps with finn and doesn't know who the father is)
quinn does not call finn stupid when he tells his mom, she does not demean him like that. yes she is mad that he tells his mom, but she knows that his mom does not know her parents.
since finn actually is the father, she does end up living with finn during the pregnancy after her parents kick her out.
quinn does want to keep the baby. she doesn't want to give the baby up for adoption. she does not give her baby up to shelby. she does almost give her up to shue's wife, but after that falls apart she is so close to keeping the baby and raising it herself.
the pregnancy does affect her relationship with finn, whether it causes them to break up or not depends on the finn.
all the events of season one do lead to a difference in season two.
