The Mystic Falls Codex

Two thousand years of one story, Silas to the Salvatore School.

Witches & Magic · Era II, The Mikaelsons

Freya, Taken

10th century

The Mikaelsons' true firstborn, handed to Dahlia as payment and reported dead of plague. Raised as Dahlia's weapon, held in the same cycle of a century's sleep for each year awake, and returned to the story a thousand years later as the only Mikaelson who is still a witch — and the only one who can plan.

Details

  • She is the family's problem-solver in New Orleans: nearly every workable spell in The Originals is hers.
  • She marries Keelin, a werewolf doctor, and gets one of the franchise's very few uncomplicated happy endings.
  • Freya slept a century for every single year awake, over and over, for a thousand years. Her sense of time is unlike anyone else's in the family.
  • She was raised to believe her mother sold her, which is true, and that her family would not want her, which is not.
  • She becomes the family's strategist: the spells that save Hope, kill Dahlia and contain the Hollow are all hers.
