| “ | Freya, something you must understand about this family-- under threat, we take action, for better or worse. Whatever it takes to protect our own. | ” |
— Elijah to Freya in Beautiful Mistake
| ||
Elijah Mikaelson is the deuteragonist of The Originals. He was formerly a major recurring character in The Vampire Diaries, serving initially as an antagonist in the second season and eventually becoming a supporting character in the third season and fourth season. Elijah is an Original Vampire.
Elijah is the third child of Mikael and Esther. He is the younger brother of Freya Mikaelson and Finn Mikaelson, and the older brother of Kol Mikaelson, Rebekah Mikaelson and Henrik Mikaelson. Elijah is also the older half-brother of Niklaus Mikaelson, and the uncle of Hope Mikaelson, Klaus' daughter with Hayley Marshall.
Throughout his long life, Elijah has had a few romantic relationships. In the 10th century, Elijah and Klaus were both in love with a Petrova Doppelgänger named Tatia. Upon their transformations into vampires, Elijah accidentally killed her, greatly shaking him. After seeing him kill the woman he loved, Elijah's mother told him to seal the event behind a 'red door' and to clean himself up; as long as he was clean, nothing of what happened behind the red door could hurt him. As such, this became Elijah's defense mechanism to cope with the horrors of his vampirism for the next thousand years. In the 15th century, Elijah was romantically involved with another Petrova Doppelgänger, a young girl from Bulgaria, named Katerina Petrova. In the 19th century, Elijah was romantically involved with a witch named Céleste Dubois, whose death was later caused by his half-brother Klaus. In the 21st century, Elijah rekindled his relationship with Katerina Petrova aka Katherine Pierce, before ending it to go to New Orleans to help Klaus. In New Orleans, Elijah has developed feelings for Hayley Marshall, after he promised to protect her and the child she was carrying. Since then he has kept his distance considering she is now married to Jackson Kenner.
Elijah had the closest relationship with Klaus, who he wishes to maintain a good relationship with. The two live and work together to defeat their enemies in New Orleans. In the second season of The Originals, Elijah continued to work with Klaus in effort to stop Esther, a revived Finn and a revived Mikael. He also took Gia, one of Marcel's vampires as his protégé, whom he had a romantic relationship with.
Elijah is a member of the Mikaelson Family.
Pre-history
10th Century to 13th Century
Mystic Falls, The Middle Ages, 10th Century
Young Elijah
Elijah Mikaelson is the third-born of Mikael and Esther's children, born in an area of the New World that would come to be known as Mystic Falls, Virginia. Elijah's parents fled from Europe, with his older brother, Finn, and a few others after the death of his older sister, Freya, from the plague while Esther was pregnant with Elijah - or so he thouth, as his mother lied to him and his father their whole life - his older sister was taken by his aunt. The first of their children to be born in the New World, Elijah was followed by three brothers, Klaus, Kol and Henrik, and a sister, Rebekah.
The loss of his first born had hardened Mikael and he proved to be a very strict father, who was feared by all his children. Elijah had a close relationship with his mother, who once mentioned to him that, when she was pregnant with him, she would have Freya sing to him. This was one of the few times Esther ever spoke of her lost daughter. In addition, Elijah was very close to his siblings, with the exception of Finn, who had never recovered from losing Freya and never taken to his new siblings as a result. Elijah was closest to Niklaus and Rebekah, and his younger brother would often carve figurines and statuettes for his brother and sister.
However, while Mikael was hard on all his children, he was hardest on Niklaus, whom he saw as weak. Once, when Elijah took his younger brother hunting and complimented him on the improvement of his aim (despite the fact that Niklaus had missed his target), Mikael arrived and started beating Niklaus to 'strengthen' him, threatening Elijah with violence if he tried to intervene. He carried guilt for the rest of his life for not stopping their father's beatings against his brother. Once, Mikael beat Niklaus to near death in a rage and only stopped when both Elijah and Rebekah tried to stop him. That night, Rebekah tried to kill Mikael as he slept to end his abuse of Niklaus but Elijah stopped her and considered killing his father himself. Ultimately, he didn't.
Mikael, Henrik, Elijah, Rebekah, Niklaus and Esther.
They lived among the werewolves for about twenty years and during the full moon, the humans would simply hide in the underground caves while the werewolves turned. During Elijah's early life, Elijah and Niklaus both fell in love with a woman named Tatia who lived in their village. All the villagers wanted to be her suitors including Klaus and Elijah, both of them during their time with her, argued with each other and fought each other because they both wanted her for themselves. Tatia chose Elijah to be her next husband when the time came.
Mikael and Elijah watch as Niklaus turns into a Hybrid.
One morning after a full moon, Klaus came out of the woods, holding his dead little brother Henrik in his arms. Elijah came running to join his mother as she grieved Henrik's death.
To ensure that the rest of her family would survive, Esther used a spell to make her children immortal. Mikael gave his children wine laced with Tatia's blood. Then he stabbed Elijah and his siblings through their hearts and made them drink human blood. After becoming a vampire, Elijah, along with his family, made sure that the White Oak Tree, their one true weakness, would be destroyed. However, nature retaliated against them and, for every strength, there was a weakness, none stronger than the desire for what had made them immortal: human blood. They had become the very first vampires.
Shortly after becoming a vampire, one night when Niklaus made his first human kill, it triggered his werewolf side. Klaus went on a rampage in wolf form. When he awoke the following morning he was tended to by Elijah unbeknownst to them Tatia had followed them to see what happened. Seeing all the carnage created by Klaus she ran from them in fear and was pursued by Elijah. She had tripped and fell while trying to flee and cut her hand. The blood made Elijah lose control and attack her. She tried to defend herself but was no match and was killed. Elijah brought her corpse to a shocked Esther who used her blood as part of the spell used to bind Klaus' werewolf side, which resulted in Klaus' werewolf gene being dormant. Mikael also made Elijah help him in tying up Klaus so that his mother could do the spell. Elijah suppressed the memory of how Tatia actually died believing he had compelled not killed her in the woods and that Esther killed her when performing the hybrid curse.
Elijah, Klaus and Rebekah
Then one night, his mother was killed by "Mikael". After burying their mother, Elijah, Klaus, and Rebekah promised that they would never turn their backs on each other and that they would stick together as one, always and forever.
Southern France, 1002
Elijah leading his family on the run
Elijah ran from Mikael with his siblings, fleeing to Europe where they fed along the countryside. However, Elijah stressed regulation and rules, taking up the duties of the eldest due to Finn's pessimistic view of their immortal lives. Before they had learned compulsion to help cover their tracks, Elijah made sure that they always disposed of the bodies they fed on and killed whoever knew the truth about them. He also made sure that they stood together and didn't separate, reminding his siblings of their vows.
Elijah pretends to be a nobleman
One day, they killed noblemen in a caravan and Rebekah proposed that they steal their fine clothing and take up their identities so they could live in a nearby castle. Elijah reminded her that they were in a foreign land with customs far different than they knew. When they discovered a survivor in the attack, a servant of the castle named Lucien, Elijah urged his siblings to kill him before he could make their presence known, possibly bringing Mikael to them. However, when Niklaus called for a vote, only Elijah and Kol voted kill him, with Kol only doing it to appease his own bloodlust rather than necessity like Elijah. With Niklaus's vote, they let Lucien live on the condition that he'd help them pose as nobles and bring them to the castle. Lucien taught them manners so they wouldn't be caught when presented to Count de Martel. When they met the count, Elijah managed to convince the noble of their legitimacy and they pulled off their ruse, being welcomed into his court.
Elijah competes with Tristan
Later that year, Elijah and his siblings had managed to comfortably integrate themselves into noble society. They participated in activities of the count's court, including ax throwing competitions, and their secret remained unnoticed. However, after Lucien was taken to the dungeons for supposedly having an affair with the count's daughter, Aurora, Elijah and Klaus intended to rescue him from his punishment. However, Tristan was the one punishing Lucien, torturing him, and reminded Elijah and Klaus that as the count's son, he had a right to give punishment in whatever way he wished. When they persisted, he revealed that he knew what they were, as a survivor of one of Kol's feedings had told him about what they really were. He threatened to expose them as monsters to the entire land. Not wanting to risk the news spreading to Mikael, Elijah and Klaus stepped down and watched while Tristan scarred Lucien. After Klaus had discovered that his blood healed Lucien before Lucien was killed by a guard, Elijah comforted his brother when they prepared to burn his body. However, Lucien awoke from death, eventually transitioning into a vampire.
Elijah unknowingly learns compulsion
One night, Finn told his siblings that word had spread among the villagers of their presence. They decided it was time to run from the castle, in fear that Mikael would be coming. While they prepared to depart, Aurora, who had been turned into a vampire and had had a romance with Klaus, begged Elijah to let her come with them. Elijah refused, saying that she wasn't their blood. Aurora, furious, told him that she knew things that even Elijah and the other siblings didn't know about Klaus. When Elijah demanded the truth, he learned compulsion, which forced her to tell him what she knew. Aurora told him that Klaus had killed Esther and put the blame on Mikael, lying to all of his siblings. Elijah was enraged by the truth and compelled Aurora to see Klaus for the monster that he was, which soon after led to her rejecting Klaus when he tried to take her with them. Elijah never told Klaus about his involvement in the end of the affair.
Some time later, Elijah turned Tristan into the first sired vampire of his line and then compelled him, Lucien Castle, and Aurora to think that they were Elijah, Klaus, and Rebekah so they can act as a decoy to lure their father away from them. Afer that, Elijah and his four siblings left France. A while after that the five Mikaelsons settled in Tuscany, Italy. Some decades later Elijah founded the ancient vampire society, The Strix, and eventually abanded it.
Italy, 1114
Klaus and Elijah watch vampires be killed in Italy
Elijah was in Italy along with his siblings Rebekah and Klaus, where he worried that Klaus and Kol's violent behavior was spreading word of the Original vampires and drawing too much attention. They came across a vampire hunter named Alexander who was part of a group called The Brotherhood of the Five, where he publicly executed vampires in presentations on how to kill the "demons". Their sister, however, had fallen in love with Alexander so Elijah and Klaus took advantage of the affair as an opportunity to get closer to the hunter and find out his secrets. One day, the siblings were invited to a party at Alexander's home where they were ambushed and neutralized for the first time by white oak ash daggers. Klaus was unaffected by the dagger thanks to his werewolf lineage and undaggered Elijah and the rest of his siblings except Finn.
14th century - 17th century
1359
According to Elijah's Journal, he had begun noticing Rebekah and Klaus losing their humanity. However, Elijah hoped as their older brother he could lead them down the right path to reclaiming their humanity and carry on the family legacy. But he believed if he fails, their family legacy would fall in ruins.
England, 1492
Elijah and Katerina having fun together.
In England, Elijah and Klaus were noblemen in the late 15th century. In the year 1492 Elijah met Katerina Petrova, who was the Doppelgänger of Tatia and moments later, showed her to his younger brother Niklaus. Katerina was the key to breaking Klaus' Hybrid Curse through sacrifice. While Elijah was helping Klaus achieve his goal, he started to fall in love with Katerina. And when Elijah one day saw Katerina bored, he took her outside to have fun and then they sat at a bench and talked about love. Elijah confessed to her that he didn't believe in love, but Katerina didn't believe him, saying that without love, they wouldn't have a reason to live at all. Klaus then came and interrupted, taking Katerina with him and away from Elijah. Elijah then tried to persuade Klaus to spare her life, but Klaus told him not to bother and that the ritual would go on as planned. On the night of the full moon, Katerina took the moonstone and fled with the help of Trevor.
Klaus assumed Elijah helped her because of their discussion the night before about sparing her life. Elijah promised him that he would find her and Klaus responded with a promise of his own; if he did not find Katerina, he would be killed. Elijah attempted to track down Katerina, but failed.
1500's
Elijah lived in Copenhagen, Denmark, along with Klaus and Rebekah.
Cádiz, Spain, 1702
Elijah helps dagger Kol
In 1702, Kol's violence in Cádiz, Spain drew too much attention and brought Mikael, straight to the family, burning the country in his wake. While the flames drew closer, Elijah and Klaus searched for Kol while Rebekah brought the daggered Finn onboard a ship to flee from Europe. They found him in a tavern where he drank and feasted on humans carelessly. Despite their warnings of Mikael's arrival, he refused to flee. When Klaus and Elijah insisted, Kol attempted to resist them but was subdued by Elijah as Klaus pulled out one of the white oak ash daggers and successfully daggered and neutralized Kol.
New Orleans, 18th century - 20th century
1700's
Elijah in the 1700's.
In 1713, having fled Europe from Mikael, Elijah, along with Klaus and Rebekah, and their two daggered brothers, sailed across the world, through the Mississippi River and arrived in the French colony of Louisiana, off the shores of a town they have named New Orleans, 300 years from the present. Upon arriving off the coast of New Orleans, they slaughtered all the men who boarded their ship, but left one alive to question and carry their luggage, including the two coffins of their neutralized brothers, Kol and Finn.
1800's
Celeste and Elijah.
In 1820, Elijah, Klaus and Rebekah were living in New Orleans at the Governor's mansion and paid him in gold to keep quiet about the existence of vampires. One day the Governor threw a party for the Mikaelsons. Rebekah went upstairs with the Governor's son who she wanted to turn. Elijah was seen kissing a women and having fun when Rebekah came to him with the Governor's son and asked Elijah if she could turn him, to which Elijah suggested it would be an unwise move to turn the Governor's son into a vampire.
Rebekah and Elijah watch as Klaus brings Marcel into their family.
Klaus told her no and told her that if she turned every boy she fell in love with, the humans would cease to exist. The boy then argued with Klaus and he threw him down the stairs while Elijah tried to stop it. While the siblings were going to attend the Governor's son funeral, Klaus saw a boy being whipped and threw an apple at the man and made him stop whipping the boy. Klaus then came to the boy, named him Marcellus and brought him to the family, Elijah saw this and told his sister: "Perhaps there is hope for our brother after all".
Elijah with Celeste.
Later in 1820 Elijah is seen visiting the witch Celeste, who is seen taking a bath and is looking at Elijah, he likes the view of her. He's seeing it as perfection. Celeste then mentions that his brother, Niklaus, is again up to no good. He's challenging the gentry to duels as though they have any chance of a fair fight. They talk about Niklaus and kiss before Elijah goes to meet his brother.
Klaus and Elijah discuss about the dead bodies.
Klaus is seen challenging a man in a duel in which Klaus is left standing as the victor and the other man is shot to the head. Elijah then becomes a little worried and asks him if it is not enough that he has slaughtered dozens in past several weeks, and explains that words of a city littered with bodies will surely travel the oceans and asks him if he wants to bring their father upon them. Klaus tells Elijah to relax because he has sent rumors that the bodies are result of the witches seeking blood sacrifices for their rituals. Elijah is shocked by this and asks Klaus if he has forgotten that Celeste is one of those witches that he recklessly pointed his finger at. Klaus then asks, who Celeste even is.

Elijah mourns over Celeste.
Elijah then gives him a meaningful look and Klaus remembers that Celeste is the witch Elijah has been knocking around with. Elijah takes a revolver and shoots Klaus, who groans in pain. Klaus sees that Elijah cares about Celeste and warns him that they're rounding up the town's witches as they speak. Elijah then began to look for Celeste and found her lying in the bathtub, dead. Elijah touches her, lays his forehead on hers. He screams and blames himself for her death.
Elijah chastises Klaus and Kol
In the year 1821, Elijah had grown close to Klaus' ward, Marcellus, encouraging and teaching him. The growing bond between Marcellus and Elijah made Klaus extremely jealous since he had been hoping to be Marcellus's mentor. Angrily declaring that he needed someone to spend time with, Klaus revealed to Elijah that he had undaggered their younger brother, Kol. Elijah was shocked and horrified by his youngest brother's awakening, rushing down to the coffins to find that Kol had already killed a number of people. Elijah could only grudgingly watch things play out as Klaus and Kol joyfully spread violence throughout the city, even slaughtering an entire tenement building for fun. Elijah tried to remind them that it was careless and destructive behavior that had cost them homes in the past.
Elijah confesses to the daggered Kol
Later, Elijah found Kol tormenting Marcellus, feeding him vampire blood and threatening to turn him, believing in his own twisted mind that it was what Elijah and Klaus wanted. Elijah defended Marcellus from Kol's sadism, grabbing his brother by the neck, only being stopped by Klaus who proceeded to dagger Kol again, recognizing that he was too wild. Elijah later confessed to Kol's daggered body that though he didn't like the daggerings, it was for the best since Kol was a bad influence on Klaus. He also admitted that he'd have to isolate himself from Marcellus to allow Klaus to grow closer to the boy since it would make him a better person. Elijah solemnly sacrificed a close and friendly relationship with Marcellus for Klaus' benefit, treating Marcellus with indifference from that point on.
In the year 1887, 52 years after being daggered by Klaus, Rebekah had finally been undaggered by him. Elijah had helped her reintegrate herself into New Orleans' society and they went to the opera house together. It was a moment that only Elijah and Rebekah shared together.
1900's
In the year 1914, Elijah attended his family's Christmas party with his siblings. During the party, Klaus gave a toast to the party-goers, revealing that he knew of betrayal planned by their brother Kol, who had been conspiring with witches against him. Elijah, seemingly having also been informed of his younger brother's treachery, stopped Kol as he tried to flee, holding him down while Klaus daggered him.
Elijah and Klaus meet with the Guerrera family.
In the year 1919, Elijah is seen in a meeting room, meeting with members from the Guerrera Family, a family of thieves and butchers according to Klaus, who says that is noting compared to what they turn into on a full moon. Elijah told them that Mayor O'Connell was a little late but they should continue with business without him. Elijah assured them that they didn't need to be scared of Klaus as he made a promise they would be safe and Klaus told them his brother always keeps his word. Then a witch appeared, Elijah told him it was a private meeting. But he said it was a meeting between kings and claimed he was also a king. He presents himeslf as Alphonz Bellatunde Delgallo and that he now speaks for the witches of the French Quarter. He tells them the witches should get their fair share and leaves with a gift to Elijah and Klaus, the Mayor's head.
Elijah and Klaus welcome Marcel home.
Later, when Marcel returns home from World War I, he's greeted by both Elijah and Klaus. Klaus tells Marcel, "The prodigal son has finally learned to hold his liquor." Marcel tells him being in the army does that to you. Elijah tells him it's good to have him back, and tells him that Niklaus was beside himself in Marcel's absence. Klaus then tells him that he and Elijah have had a little argument that Marcel might help with a rouge witch who wants a piece of the city they built. Klaus considered to kill him but Elijah meant that negotiation is their best recourse, as Elijah knows how fast news can travel, but also the very horrors of war itself. Klaus reveals that he invited the witch and Elijah told Marcel he could choose what they should do after he saw the witch. Elijah tried to negotiate with him but after all his sacrifices Elijah decided to meet with him in a private room. However Klaus appeared instead as Elijah only comes when they deal and Klaus comes when the deal is closed.
Elijah meets with Clara Summerlin who's been possessed by Celeste Dubois.
Later that year, Elijah is seen by both Rebekah and Genevieve, Rebekah asks if she is interested in Elijah but she confirms she is interested in Klaus, Rebekah then begins to talk of her older brother Kol who is also a bad boy and she would like him to. At the bar Elijah meets with Clara Summerlin who was possessed by Céleste Dubois at that time. She had spilled her drink and Elijah gives her his tissue and leaves her with a smile.
Elijah, Lana and Klaus share shots together.
Six months later in 1919 Elijah and Klaus are seen with a werewolf named Lana who's the Werewolf Queen of the Crescent Wolf Clan. Klaus talked of how werewolves, vampires, witches and dirty-cops are happy as clams and drunk as stoats. They're celebrating to the new era-collaboration in the face of prohibition. Klaus told him they did it, Elijah said he helped build the city but it was all because of Klaus. Elijah and Klaus sat and drink, until they saw Marcel and Rebekah to come, Klaus knew they were a pair, but Elijah told him not to cause trouble. And to his surprise Klaus allowed them to be together and sat with Elijah minutes later.
Mikael meets with his son and asks him to help him kill his bastard brother.
The next day Elijah enters Klaus' room and sees Lana and jokes of him sleeping with an enemy who is now their ally, Klaus tells Elijah they got tickets to The Opera House and asked him to tell Rebekah to bring Marcel with her. Elijah then left them. When Elijah was getting ready for The Opera, his father Mikael visited him and told Elijah he saw the "Le Grand Guignol" piece in Venice. Elijah is shocked seeing his father, Mikael assured him though, he only wished to talk. Elijah told him that he has hunted them for centuries and laid waste to half of Europe and wants to talk? Mikael corrected him that he only hunted Klaus and never his true children, he tells him he's his blood and he's proud to call him a son. Mikael then asks Elijah for his help to kill Klaus. Elijah attacked his father in rage, only to be thrown against the wall. Elijah tells his father that if he thinks he would betray Klaus for his own father, then he's a fool without equal. Mikael tells him that he'll forgive his sentimental affections for his brother, but says that Klaus is an abomination and that they must be erased from existence. Mikael then showed him The White Oak Stake, Elijah tried to stop him but Mikael forced him against the wall and told him, that either he stands with him or falls with Klaus and after Elijah chose Klaus, Mikael staked Elijah with a normal wooden stake.
Klaus, Rebekah and Elijah hiding from their father.
After Elijah woke up again he rushed to The Opera House and saw Mikael at the stage, as he was feeding from Marcel, Elijah urged his siblings to flee the scene. Mikael then burned down The Opera House and continued to hunt his children. Elijah, Klaus and Rebekah were only a few blocks away. Elijah told Klaus and Rebekah to flee while he delayed his father for a brief time. Klaus and Rebekah then left New Orleans.
Throughout The Vampire Diaries Series
Rose and Elijah discuss their deal. Elijah was first introduced when two vampires named Rose and Trevor called a person on Elijah's inner circle in the hope that he would come to meet them and pardon them because they were tired of constantly running from the Originals. They held Elena captive in the hope of using her as a bargaining chip. Initially skeptical of their claim of having the Petrova Doppelgänger, by testing whether Elena was human, he proceeded to smell her neck. Surprised, he confirmed that Elena was indeed a human. He forgave Rose because she helped Trevor out of loyalty to him which he respected, but he executed Trevor by decapitation for his betrayal of having helped the second Petrova Doppelgänger, Katerina Petrova, escape.  Elijah pulls the stake out As they were leaving the house that Rose and Trevor were hiding out in, the Salvatore brothers came to rescue Elena. They shot Elijah in the hand with a wooden stake, Elena then came out and threw a vervain grenade which exploded and burnt his face; however, he soon healed. Stefan shot multiple stakes at him and eventually tackled him to floor. When Elijah got the upper hand and was about to kill Stefan, Damon then staked him with a broken coat rack, pinning him to the wall; however, some time later, he came to back to life and pulled the stake out of him. Elijah saves Elena and Damon from Klaus' minions. The next day Elijah, with the help of the allied Jonas Martin, found Elena through a locator spell and appeared at the window Elena was watching. She saw Elijah and freaked out a little bit. Elijah told Dr. Martin that he knew exactly where to find her. When Elijah found himself in Slater's apartment, he killed the three vampires who were going to take her to Klaus, but he let Elena and Damon live, much to their surprise. When Dr. Martin asks him about it, he said that it was good that Damon was alive so he can protect Elena as he needs her alive. Elijah compels Katherine. In By the Light of the Moon, Elijah meets with Jenna Sommers, who is Elena's aunt, and was then invited to her house. Elena sees Elijah and is extremely shocked. Elijah greeted her, thanked Jenna for inviting him in, and said to Elena that he hoped to see her again soon. Elena runs up to warn her brother, but Elijah raced to the door and told her that they needed to talk. After Elena makes an excuse to Jeremy, Elijah and she go to her room. Elijah tells her that he won't harm her or her family. Elena then asks why he killed the vampires who were going to take her and Elijah responds by saying that he didn't want her to be taken and then tries to make a deal with her to kill Klaus and keep her friends and family safe. He then says that he has no concern in breaking the curse, but to find Klaus and kill him. Later Elijah asks Dr. Martin to break the tomb spell under the Fell's Church. As per his agreement with Elena, he frees Stefan from it, but compels Katherine to stay there until Klaus comes. Damon and Elijah at the Lockwood mansion In Crying Wolf, Elijah takes on the surname of Smith and when Damon tries to get the truth out of Elijah at the Historical society meeting, Elijah overpowers him and tells him that he can kill him when he's completed his part of the deal. Later, when Damon and Alaric are captured by the werewolves, Elijah comes to the Salvatore Boarding House to find Alaric dead and Damon being tortured by Jules. He offers them the moonstone, but when they try to grab it, he kills all the werewolves with amazing ease, causing Jules to flee without the moonstone. Elijah then releases Damon as Alaric comes back to life with the help of his ring, reminding the younger vampire that it was the third time that he saved his life. Under Bonnie's spell, Luka reveals that he, his father, and Elijah all want Klaus dead, and the reason they are helping Elijah is because Klaus has Luka's sister, also a witch, and is forcing her to help him find a way to break the curse without the Petrova Doppelgänger, as he has been doing for generations with other witches. He also reveals that Elijah will return his sister to them if they help him but that they will kill Klaus after the sacrifice, when he is most vulnerable, meaning Elijah intended for the sacrifice to happen all along. Elijah, Jenna and Alaric in the woods talking In The Dinner Party, Elijah goes with Jenna into the woods and talks. Then Alaric comes and joins them and he spend hours with Elijah and Jenna. Elijah and Jenna later go to the Grill and meet Damon, Andie and Alaric. Andie asks Elijah and Jenna if they would join the dinner party at the Salvatore boarding house. Elijah says it will be his pleasure. When Elijah comes to the Boarding House for the dinner party with Damon, Alaric, Jenna, Andie Star and John Gilbert, Elijah says if Damon tries to cross him Elijah will kill him and everyone else in the house. During the dinner party, Elijah and Damon take drinks together in the study. As Damon is about to use the dagger to kill Elijah, Alaric enters the room and says they forgot dessert. Unsure of Alaric's interruption, Alaric quickly writes to Damon that the dagger will kill him if he uses it. When Elijah returns to the dinner party, Damon says he doesn't have to protect John as per the deal between Elijah and Elena. Elijah begins to say that he will take Elena away from both Damon and John if Damon becomes a liability.  Elijah gets stabbed with the dagger. Alaric then stabs Elijah with the white oak ash dagger, seemingly killing him. It is later revealed however that the dagger has to remain in an Original to keep him dead. Elijah shows up at the lake house and tells Elena that their deal is off, and demands that Elena come with him. Elena threatens to turn herself into a vampire, but Elijah calls her bluff. Elena responds by stabbing herself. Elijah, not wanting history to repeat itself, agrees to the terms of the new deal Elena strikes and begs her to let him heal her. As Elena moves towards him through the door, she stabs him with the white oak ash dagger. Elijah and Elena talking about the sun and moon curse. Elena and Elijah make a new deal. Elijah about to kill Klaus. Elijah asks her why and she says that she is the Doppelgänger, she is the key to breaking the curse, and if she doesn't do it, Klaus will never stop. Then she goes upstairs to explain it to Damon but Damon, convinced the elixir wouldn't work, forces her to drink his blood. When Damon comes back downstairs, Elijah says she doesn't need the elixir anymore, as feeding her vampire blood rendered it useless. Before he goes he says to Damon that Elena will never forgive him. After The Hybrid Curse is broken and Klaus is delivered to the brink of death, Elijah walks up to his brother. When he is about to rip his brother's heart out, Klaus reveals that he didn't bury their family at sea, their bodies are safe, and if he is killed, Elijah would never find them.

The three run toward them, so Monique and Abigail hold each other's hands and channel the ancestors' power to throw them backwards while Genevieve goes to find the knife. As the witches continue to use magic against them, Elijah and Klaus can see that hundreds and hundreds of the dead witches have come together to protect them as they complete their sacrifice. Klaus and Hayley each run in opposite directions, while Elijah continues to rush straight towards them, in hopes of overpowering them, Hayley finds Genevieve picking up the athame, and starts to fist-fight her to keep her from using it against the baby.

She says Marcel can help them battle the Guerreras and tells him how bad it is in the Quarter and that Marcel didn't kill Klaus' baby and he should use Klaus against the wolves like the weapon he is. Elijah is in his niece's nursery brooding. He is folding up the bedding when Hayley comes in and asks what he’s doing. He says the illusion needs to be flawless so they need to put things behind them. She asks what's next – should she and Klaus hold their heads up and say they’re ready to try again. She’s furious that Francesca is still breathing and tells him to leave Hope's Nursery alone. Elijah removing the moonlight ring. Later, Klaus tells Elijah his plan but Elijah says they need to know where the stake is. Elijah says for this to work, Hayley and Klaus have to unite and work together. He tells her it's their fight and asks if she's ready for battle. She says as long as Francesca dies, she's in. He promises her the woman’s head on a silver platter. Elijah waits in Francesca's yard and her personal guards comes out. Francesca's door flies open and she sees Elijah standing outside. She tells the guards he can't come in and tells her monsters suffer from hubris. He reminds her of Al Capone's fate. He says the devil is in the details and tells her that her home is beautiful and he was glad the preservation society elected to protect it making it public domain so he can come in without invitation. He steps inside and gives her a tight little smile. Back home, Klaus paints in his enemy's blood and asks his brother how many rings are missing. He says just one but tells him that her guard fought valiantly but then Francesca fled. Elijah asks if he let her get away and he says not exactly. He let Hayley have Francesca. Later, he finds Hayley tearing up Hope's Nursery. He asks what happened and she says she killed Francesca while she looked her in the eye and begged for her life while she tore her apart. She says she doesn't feel better and he says that’s natural. She says it’s not natural and she doesn't want to live like this. He reminds her how much more intense it is to be a hybrid. She says she killed eight wolves before she got to Francesca – she says those were her own people and there was no nobility in that. She says everything has changed. She says she saw the way he used to look at her and the way he looks at her now. She says she was a mother and is now a monster. She cries and walks out past him. Klaus is full of remorse and says he should have accepted Hayley’s pregnancy and listened to Elijah. He says his greed cost him his daughter. Klaus tells Elijah that he chases his redemption like a man rolling a stone up a mountain. Elijah says mountains aren't endless, but some are steep. He burns the rings and tells Klaus he needs to go grieve with Hayley. Elijah is startled by Mikael's return In Alive and Kicking, Elijah searched for the missing white oak stake with Marcel's help. After speaking with Davina, Elijah realized that she was in possession of the one weapon that could kill an Original and knowing her history with Klaus, he remained cautious. As he and Marcel worked together, he thought about how he once had to turn his back on Marcel so that Klaus and Marcel could develop a bond. When Elijah accused Davina of having the stake, Davina grew defensive and Elijah tracked her down to a bar where she was being attacked by his father, Mikael. Shocked by his father, no longer dead, standing before him, Elijah struggled to fight back while Mikael attacked him with the white oak stake. It was only when Davina put on a bracelet in her possession that she sent Mikael away, showing Elijah that she had brought back and was now in control of his father. Davina and Mikael fled while Elijah told Klaus of his father's return. Klaus also told Elijah of their mother's own resurrection that he had discovered. The two brothers wondered which revived parent would they have to kill first. Marcel then asked Elijah if he would mentor the first vampire of his new community, Gia, hoping that Elijah would do better with her than he had with him as a boy. Elijah is scolded by Finn In Every Mother's Son, Elijah and Klaus received an invitation from their mother who requested to have dinner at the compound. A mysterious man arrived first as they were setting the table. While speaking with them and insulting them, Elijah remained bewildered by his identity, not believing that they'd met before. Klaus, however, realized it was their brother Finn, much to Elijah's surprise. Finn, in a new witch body and returned from the dead, sat down with them and began questioning them on why he was so badly treated in his centuries of life. He asked Elijah if he had allowed him to be daggered for 900 years because he was afraid of Klaus. Then, Finn claimed Elijah had always been jealous that Finn was the oldest and that Elijah had wanted the responsibilities of the eldest so he let Finn be neutralized so he could have them. Elijah grew angry with Finn's claims and told him that as a vampire, he was as self-loathing as their father but rather than be wrathful, he was simply tedious. Their mother arrived and after exchanging cruel words with Klaus, she left her new body and transferred to someone else's. Elijah was knocked out along with Klaus by Finn who departed the dinner. Elijah and Klaus tracked down a witch who had been helping Elijah, Lenore, who was now possessed by Esther and speaking to Hayley. She offered all of them new lives in new bodies, so they no longer had to be vampires. Then, their mother took her leave, knowing that they'd see things her way eventually.   Elijah is ambushed and captured In Live and Let Die, Elijah trained Gia before participating in an effort to save a group of young untriggered werewolves from being forced to activate their werewolf side by Finn. Concocting a plan with Hayley, Aiden, Josh, and Oliver, Elijah served as a distraction for the wolves under Finn's control to attack. He and Oliver fought the wolves together, slaughtering most of them. When Finn arrived, he used his magic to hurt Elijah and knock out Oliver. Elijah quickly recovered, attacking Finn and prepared to kill him, telling his brother that he hoped his next life would be longer. Suddenly, Elijah was impaled through the back by a large piece of wood. Esther had arrived, saving Finn and incapacitating Elijah. His brother and mother took him prisoner, bringing him to the cemetery and chaining him up. Elijah being tormented In Red Door, with Elijah still as her captive, Esther used her magic to make Elijah relive memories from his past that he had long since buried. She forced him to remember what really happened to the doppelgänger, Tatia, a woman in his village he had loved around the time he was turned into a vampire. He was forced to see that he had actually killed her due to his bloodlust as a newly turned vampire. Esther explained that the reason he kept himself so tidy and well-dressed was to try and hide the blood that was on his hands throughout history. Esther than made him see visions of being freed by Hayley, giving him hope when there really was none. She continued this to try and get him to turn away from his immortal life as a vampire and accept her offer to be placed into a new body. Klaus rescues Elijah In Wheel Inside the Wheel, Esther continued to torment and torture Elijah, slitting his throat with a mysterious blade. Later, Klaus refused Esther's offers while searching for Elijah, eventually finding where she had him chained up. After attacking Esther for going after his daughter Hope, Klaus rescued Elijah and brought him back to the compound where he was incapacitated in an almost coma-like state, suffering from Esther's torture. In Chasing the Devil's Tail, while Elijah suffered from what Esther had done to him, he envisioned his darker more violent and savage vampire side trying to overpower the innocent part of him, in the form of himself as a child. Klaus and Hayley tried to figure out how they could help him and Klaus learned that there was a plant in the forest he could use to help his brother. Eventually finding it, he used the herb and got inside of his brother's head, helping him through the ordeal. Elijah awoke from his state, though still seeming to suffer a little from Esther's efforts. Klaus showed his brother that they had managed to capture Finn and Kol. Elijah's suit is stained In The Brothers That Care Forgot, Elijah and Klaus tried to turn their brothers against their mother. When Finn brought up Rebekah and explained that Esther had been looking for her since she returned, Elijah grew worried for his sister and for the secret of Hope's survival. Elijah viciously and uncharacteristically attacked Finn, biting him. Klaus managed to pry Elijah away, noting that it was strange for Elijah to not show some restraint. When Rebekah called, believing Esther had found her and the baby, Klaus insisted that Elijah go to their aid. Elijah initially wanted Klaus to go as Hope needed her father but Klaus didn't trust Elijah to be left with their brothers. Elijah left Klaus to deal with interrogating their brothers. While waiting to meet with Rebekah at a quiet diner, a waitress accidentally spilled some coffee on Elijah's suit. Suddenly, he was plagued by visions of his mother's torture, including how she had ingrained his brain to keep himself clean so no one could see his violent vampire nature. Elijah tried to ignore the stain on his suit but his mother's visions overtook his mind. He slaughtered the entire kitchen staff of the diner before Rebekah arrived and either pretended he hadn't or was possibly unaware of his actions, reuniting happily with Hope. Elijah reunites with his sister and niece Rebekah, unaware of Elijah's actions, was glad to be back with her brother as he explained their mother's plan to put them all into mortal bodies. Elijah seemed to even be supporting the idea of it, telling her how he'd been forced to see the actions of his past and had even considered excepting the offer. Rebekah soon discovered the dead bodies in the kitchen, shocked by Elijah's strange behavior. She pretended to act normally, noticing that Elijah's behavior was growing more and more suspicious. To protect Hope, Rebekah broke Elijah's neck, incapacitating him. In The Map of Moments, Elijah was brought to their family's vacation house by Rebekah, confused as to why she had to knock him out to bring him there. She told him that he had been acting strange. He was happy to be spending the holidays with Rebekah and Hope as Hayley and Klaus arrived, reuniting with their child. Elijah continued to struggle with what Esther had done to him, being overcome with his violent vampire instincts anytime he became dirty, including when he was stacking logs. Later, Hayley told him about her plan to marry Jackson in a ritual that would give their pack hybrid-like abilities. Elijah was visibly shaken and distraught by the news, as was Hayley. In a moment of desperation and lust, they had sex for the first time. In Gonna Set Your Flag On Fire, Elijah was left at the vacation house with Hope, still suffering from the violent flashes of his past. Camille was brought to the house to be kept safe from Finn and took the opportunity to use her psychiatric skills to try and help him with his troubling mind. Elijah initially brushed her off, sarcastically jabbing at therapist tropes. Vying to distract him instead, Camille suggested they play a trivia game and while Elijah was initially underwhelmed by the suggestion, he agreed to play to avoid having to talk about his relationship with Hayley. Camille was stunned by how good Elijah was at answering trivia questions, having lived through many of them but accidentally spilled a drink on him. Elijah began frantically trying to clean himself off, transfixed in his need to be clean. Camille tried to help when he snatched her hand and assured her that he wasn't nearly as fragile as Klaus believed. He received a call from Angelica Barker, who Rebekah was supposed to take the body of, but he discovered she wasn't there. He told Klaus of the incident, worried about his sister's whereabouts. Later, Elijah stood by a window, suffering from his visions when Camille approached from behind. Lost in his bloodlust, Elijah lashed at her but managed to control himself long enough to leave her alone. That night, Klaus told him to remain at the house and that he'd look for Rebekah alone, much to Elijah's chagrin. Elijah then spoke to Cami, apologizing to her for his behavior and telling her that Rebekah was missing. Due to not being able to help his family in his current state, Elijah agreed to talk to Cami. Elijah admits that he is not the noble stag In Brotherhood of the Damned, Elijah was getting therapy from Camille, telling her about the "red door" of his mind that he usually kept his vicious nature behind. He explained that it was a door from his past, to the slaughterhouse in his childhood village and that it's where Tatia had first told him her feelings for him as well as where he brought her body. Elijah went on further to say that his secret of having killed Tatia haunted him, due to Klaus also having loved her and not knowing the truth. Suddenly, Elijah was knocked unconscious by Finn's spell, his mind being brought to an astral plane with the rest of his brothers. The plane was a cabin with animal heads representing each of the brothers, Elijah being represented by a stag, due to his nobility. As the conversation grew more intense, with Finn trying to learn the secret of Hope's survival, Elijah turned the tables by explaining that Finn's representational magic only worked as long as the representations were correct. Elijah assured his brothers that the stag wasn't a correct totem for him since he wasn't as noble as he appeared. To prove it, Elijah admitted that he had murdered Tatia and hid that secret for a thousand years. Finn's magic began to weaken with the reveal, made worse when Klaus forgave Elijah, showing that he wasn't the vicious wolf Finn represented him as. The animal heads began to burn and the plane dissipated, bringing them back to their bodies. In Sanctuary, Elijah, still at their vacation home, spoke to Klaus on the phone. Klaus told him that he would allow Hayley to marry Jackson and alter the wolves into having the powers of hybrids. Elijah was curious about why Klaus would trust Jackson and Klaus told him that they only needed him until after the wedding, giving Elijah visible concern. In The Devil is Damned, Elijah keeps having flashes of 'The Red Door'. He wants it to go away. Cami gives him a list of chores to do. To keep his mind off of it. He gets a phone call from Klaus. Telling him that Finn is on his way. Finn immobilizes him. Elijah finally wakes up and Finn uses his magic to throw Elijah through a wall. He looks at his hand and sees blood. He has another flash of 'The Red Door'. Finn taunts Elijah and Elijah takes off his daylight ring and the safe house blows up. Killing Finn/Vincent and Elijah escapes. In I Love You, Goodbye, Himself, Cami and Hope head back to New Orleans. He witnesses Jackson and Hope meeting each other for the first time. He has a talk with Hayley. And she tells him she loves Jackson. Elijah although heartbroken lets her marry Jackson. After the wedding Elijah, Klaus and Rebekah go to Lafayette Cemetery to see a dying Kol. Davina tries to use her magic to stop the hex on Kol. It doesn't work. His two brothers and sister say their goodbyes. And Kol dies in Rebekah's lap. In They All Asked For You, Elijah has moved out of The Abattoir. He got his own apartment. He asks Gia for help in playing her violin. For a witch named Josephine LaRue. He needs information from her to find out more about the person Rebekah is inhabiting. Elijah and Gia go to Josephine's home. Gia plays for Josephine and she's not impressed. Gia tells off Josephine and Gia plays some of the music she likes. Josephine finally hears them out and Elijah finds out Rebekah is in Eva Sinclair's body. Josephine tells him Eva is an evil witch who kills children witches for their powers. She tells him she will help if he can get Vincent back to the witches. Eventually Elijah and Gia leave Josephine's home. He goes to the cemetery to save Finn/Vincent. He talks to Klaus saying that he can't kill Finn/Vincent. Freya shows up and Elijah and Klaus meet their older sister for the first time. She traps Finns soul in her necklace. She shows them a vision of her being by Dahlia when she was a child. Elijah, Klaus and Freya talk. She tells them she is there to help stop Dahlia. Elijah then meets with Gia again and they go back to Elijah's apartment. Gia flirts with him. And he doesn't say no. Eventually they can't control their lust towards each other. And they have sex for the first time. In Save My Soul, In Exquisite Corpse, Elijah and Gia are first seen having sex. Later they meet Hayley at Josephine LaRue's home. As Gia leaves to get Josephine. Hayley notices something going on with Elijah and Gia. She is very jealous. And Elijah says "What exactly do you want from me". Gia and Josephine finally come into the room. They tell Josephine there is an issue with Eva. Josephine tells Elijah that he needs to find Eva and hand her over to the witches so they can kill her. Josephine tells Elijah that the 24 hour hold on Eva/Rebekah is done. And she will kill Eva herself. Elijah is very angry and starts to leave. Josephine tells them off. Later Elijah talks with Hayley and Marcel. Elijah tells them both he will do whatever he has to do to get his sister Rebekah back. A while later Elijah goes to the cemetery to meet Klaus and Freya. Elijah tells them he will be the anchor to get Rebekah's soul back from inside Eva. Klaus later agrees to also become the anchor. And Rebekah's soul finally comes back. In Fire with Fire, Elijah talks to Marcel about Davina on how to bring back Kol and to stop Dahlia. Rebekah notices Klaus isnt in his coffin where he was laying there daggered. They kinda start to panic. Later at The Abattoir he talks with Freya and Rebekah he says himself and Marcel will search the entire city till they find Klaus. They talk about how Klaus will do anything to protect baby Hope. Freya tells Elijah and Rebekah that she put a spell Klaus's paintings. If Dahlia goes anywhere near the paintings she will be mortal. Freya gives Mikael's knife to Elijah so he can kill Dahlia with it. Elijah senses there is someone else there he leaves his sisters to see who it is. It's Gia she wants to talk about Josephine's death. Gia wants revenge. Elijah tells her they will not kill anyone. He wants her to leave to protect her from Klaus and Dahlia. She refuses and she doesn't want to play games with him. She tries to leave and he grabs her arm and kisses her. Showing her how much she means to him and tells her to leave. A while later Elijah is getting ready for Dahlia to attack. Everything is going well till Marcel stops Rebekah from doing her spell. To trick Dahlia into thinking they have Hope.

In For the Next Millennium, Elijah remained bitter wtih his brother over the following months, often blowing off steam at Marcel's new gym. He also made sure to take care of Hayley every full moon and bring Hope to her. However, during the day before the full moon when Elijah was preparing a dinner for Hayley in the bayou, he was confronted by professional poachers working for Kingmaker Land Development, saying that they were clearing out the wolf infestation in the bayou. Elijah was infuriated by the notion that Hayley may have been one of their victims so he killed them all without remorse, making sure to turn Hope's carriage around so she wouldn't see. Elijah then called up Freya to have her watch Hope while he stopped the hunters from hurting any more wolves. Elijah systematically hunted down the poachers. He discovered a vehicle full of werewolf corpses, worrying that Hayley was among them. In You Hung the Moon, Elijah continued searching for Hayley in the bayou but discovered Jackson instead, having transformed into human form because of the full moon. The two worried that something very well could have happened to Hayley since she would've been back by now if she was okay. They discovered that the company that hired the poachers was run by Lucien Castle, the first vampire Klaus had ever turned. After learning from Klaus that Lucien was in town, Elijah went to his penthouse but was unable to enter due to a barrier restricting any vampire from other sirelines. He questioned Lucien on the werewolf purge and Lucien sarcastically admitted to it. Elijah broke off a piece of a table and threw the wood through the door, into Lucien's neck. It bought Jackson time to run through the barrier and bite Lucien, poisoning him with werewolf venom. Elijah used the leverage of Lucien dying to convince Lucien to let him in. Lucien warned Elijah about the sire war, but Elijah wondered if that meant that Lucien was targeting him, since Lucien's enemy was Tristan de Martel, the first vampire Elijah turned. Lucien could kill Elijah to get to Tristan but Lucien assured him that he wasn't suicidal, aware that Klaus and Rebekah would kill him if he did anything like that. Elijah wasn't convinced by Lucien's claims that a witch had foreseen the doom of the Mikaelsons.

Personality
- "In the beginning, our family was human, A thousand years ago, now. Although our mother dabbled in the dark arts, we were actually just a family trying to survive in a time when it was quite difficult to do so. And, for better or worse, we were happy."

Elijah (as a human)
- "Mother made us vampires. She didn't make us monsters, we did that to ourselves."
- —Elijah to Rebekah in All My Children
Elijah during his first years as a vampire.
Elijah Mikaelson
He is known for speaking his mind and having a fierce temper, which he possibly inherited from his father, (however this is very unlikely, due to the fact that Mikael could never control his temper). Elijah very rarely has tolerance for those who broke their words to him, shown when he killed Trevor for betraying him and imprisoned Katherine for her own betrayal. He also has no tolerance for those that disrespect him. He has been shown to go to great lengths to make those that disrespect him suffer, such as Damon, Thierry, and Marcel. When Marcel disobeyed and disrespected Elijah, he killed Marcel's best friend Thierry in front of him so Marcel would suffer that loss for eternity instead of killing Marcel.
Elijah is very knowledgeable and deceptive in many ways. This encompasses knowledge of how to fight, wield a sword and defend himself. He exhibits an open-minded and optimistic personality. When he meets Elena, he respects her for her bravery and willingness to put herself in harm's way to protect her loved ones, which is something that Elijah himself has done for his family many times.
Elijah in general is a very emotionally hardened character and has difficulty at times handling and accepting certain emotions. This is evident when after losing his family because of Klaus, he turns his sadness and pain into revenge against his half-brother. Elijah is also seen to be uncomfortable and has difficulty accepting romantic feelings, particularly towards Hayley. However, despite this, Elijah does believe in love but also believes that, at least for him, it is rare. He even mentioned that for the thousand years the he has lived, he has only been in love twice.
He is far more forgiving then Klaus, he has morals, but when ever a member of his family is in danger of being killed, he is forced to commit immoral acts, something he doesn't like to do in the first place, like Klaus, he has a sense of honor.
Unlike Klaus, Elijah is caught off guard more easily, even more so when he attacks his opponent(s) in anger.
Elijah is most characterized by his devotion to his cause of "redeeming" his half-brother; Klaus. As such, he has, with only one known exception, stayed by his half-brother's side, and will constantly search for the good in him, no matter the situation. However, he is not unaware of Klaus' spiteful, violent nature, and is familiar enough with it to predict his younger half-brother's movements. However, with the birth of his niece, his priorities have begun to shift from redeeming him to ensuring her safety.
Elijah's violent side kept dormant behind his "Red Door", dirtied from the blood of his numerous victims throughout the centuries
Elijah purposefully seeks to uphold the image of the being he most aspires to be; a well kept, honourable, moral man who is devoted to his family. However, his vampiric nature, as well as insane devotion to Klaus has caused this being to become little more than a facade for him to hide behind. He is just as vicious, just as conniving, just as treacherous, and just as hypocritical as his siblings. This is most blatantly shown in his claims of familial loyalty, and then standing aside and permitting Klaus to dagger and abuse them, even helping in the instances of daggering Kol.
Elijah is noted for his ability to control his more violent urges, and rarely ever so much allows his face to show its vampiric features. However, after his mother's assault on his mind, revealing the Red Door-a mental barrier of sorts that he hides the fallout, and even memories, of his most vicious deeds behind-he began to lose control and give in to these urges, despite consciously trying to control them.
After the birth of Hope, Elijah's priorities have begun to shift, to the point where, when Klaus began spiralling after the threat of Dahlia made came, Elijah stabbed Klaus with a golden dagger, leaving him daggered in a coffin, all to prevent him from bringing danger to Hope with his violent lashing out.Physical Appearance
- Main article: Elijah Mikaelson/Appearance
Elijah reading his journals from his past.
Elijah is a handsome man who stands about 5'11" in height, and has a thin but muscular body. He has short brown hair which appeared to have darkened slightly in the fourth season, with hazel brown eyes. His facial features are angular - high cheekbones, a strong jawline, and a straight nose. Despite being centuries old, he appears to be in his early to mid twenties, somewhere between 23-24. He is older than his half brother Niklaus, but is younger than his brother Finn and his sister Freya, making him the third oldest sibling of the family. Elijah is similar to his younger brother Kol in facial features, but resembles all of his siblings in a more general way.
Elijah Mikaelson's physical appearance over the years
Elijah in the present day is consistently well-dressed. His wardrobe typically consists of a dress jacket, dress shoes, dress pants, shirt and sometimes a tie. This continues his trend of dressing well throughout the centuries. As a human, he wore more simplistic clothing, along with the other males in his family. But ever since he and his family journeyed to Europe, it seems he upgraded his attire to clothing indicative of a nobleman. Elijah has also worn different hairstyles in keeping with the times. It was revealed that Esther placed in his mind the idea of remaining clean and forgetting about his victims to save him from the guilt of it.
Powers and Abilities
As the third oldest of his siblings, Elijah is the eldest Original Vampire alive and the second oldest immortal being in the world, next to Freya Mikaelson his older sister now that Silas, Amara, Mikael and Finn (in his Original Vampire body, at least) are deceased. As an Original Vampire, Elijah is stronger and faster than any non-original vampire, he is one of the most powerful supernatural beings in the TVD/TO universe, on par with his siblings, with the exception that Klaus is stronger and faster due to his werewolf side. It is unknown how Elijah would do in a fight against his siblings such as Rebekah and Kol or Freya and Finn
His supernatural attributes aside, Elijah's greatest asset is his sharp intellect. His penchant for strategies and forming contingencies way ahead of time easily rivals Klaus', despite this, he has been outsmarted by Klaus on more than one occasion. Often, Elijah is able to discern a great deal of whatever or whoever presented to him after only a few keen observations. He was able to identify Elena masquerading as Katherine when they met at Pennsylvania after seeing her daylight ring and was also the first to discern that his former lover, Celeste, was in fact inhabiting the body of Sabine, and then later formulated a plan with Monique Deveraux to corner her the next time that Celeste jumps into another body.
Because he is much more calm, composed, and strategic in battle than Klaus, Elijah is able to fight Klaus almost evenly shortly after being undaggered by Damon despite losing most of his strength from months without blood. His composure also enabled to him to single-handedly subdue Marcel's army without getting so much as a scratch on him, evidence by the lack of cuts on his clothes, something Klaus is unable to do, due to his lack of composure. Due to his long existence, Elijah has seen countless battles and is very experienced in battle. He is also very adaptable as seen in Diego's attempt to flank him, which apparently failed. It is presumed Diego also tried other tactics which also failed miserably against Elijah. Elijah has slaughtered vampires and werewolves, alike, most often by ripping out their hearts, ensuring immediate death.
Despite his prowess against Klaus and Marcel's army, he has been defeated by lesser vampires before, in fact only two, Stefan and Damon, however, they were using hit and run tactics against him, as well using a stake gun and vervain bombs, which ended in Damon outflanking him and staking him to a door. Also at the time, Elijah underestimated them and showed hubris, believing himself unbeatable. Elijah has not made this mistake since.
Weaknesses
Elijah has the typical weaknesses of an Original Vampire. Following the destruction of the white oak stake, it is presumed by all original vampires, that they cannot be killed, however, this seems to be untrue, following the prophecy, as there is a way to kill him.
Relationships

Klaus and Elijah
Klaus is Elijah's maternal younger half-brother and his closest brother. When they were humans, they both had fun together by battles with swords, much to their father's disapproval. However their relationship became estranged when they both fell in love with the same woman Tatia. After their mother died, Elijah and Klaus made a pact with Rebekah that they would stick together as one, always and forever. In the year 1114, they came across a vampire hunter named Alexander and the Brotherhood of the Five. Alexander and his brothers neutralized four original vampires, but were released (except Finn) by Klaus. In 1492, they met a woman named Katerina Petrova, the first doppelgänger of Tatia. Klaus planned to sacrifice her, while Elijah started to have feelings for her. After Katerina's escape, the relationship between Elijah and Klaus was broken for a while. During 2010, Elijah was helping Elena Gilbert and the Salvatore brothers to kill Klaus, while Klaus was preparing to break his curse. After the curse was broken, Elijah met with his half-brother and was about to kill him when Klaus revealed their family was safe and only he knew where they were. Klaus daggered Elijah once they arrived at Alaric's apartment, but eventually Elijah was un-daggered by Damon Salvatore. Later, Elijah had undaggered all of their remaining siblings, but when they were about to leave Klaus for good, their mother appeared. Elijah tried to figure out his mother's motives and once he did, Elijah, Klaus and Kol confronted their mother and their brother, Finn. Elijah left Mystic Falls, while Klaus attempted to locate their lost brother Finn. Later, Elijah came back to bargain with Elena for Klaus' body. After Klaus "died", Elijah left again. Once Elijah had possession of the cure, he met with his half-brother again. He later handed his half-brother the White Oak Stake, asking him to spare Katerina, but Klaus refused. Elijah has began to repair his relationship with his younger half-brother and believes he will find Klaus' redemption through his daughter Hope, Elijah's niece.
Unfortunately, Elijah's relationship with Klaus takes a turn for the worst, though it was not a very healthy one to begin with due to actions made constantly by Klaus, when Elijah chose to believe Tyler's lies over Klaus, that he is (supposedly) aware that his child's blood can make hybrids, and he plans to use his child's blood once she is born to make an army of hybrids, to take over New Orleans. He falsely accused Klaus of only caring about his unborn child, so he can use her to sire more hybrids, unfortunately, he finds out the hard way that he was wrong, and unintentionally damages his relationship with Klaus. Though Elijah was well within reason to believe so. Elijah repairs his relationship with Klaus when he apologizes to him for accusing him of only caring about his unborn child so he can used her to sire more hybrids, despite the fact that their relationship is now repaired, Elijah is barely on speaking terms with Klaus.
Unfortunately, their relationship becomes worse than ever, when Elijah daggered Klaus and allowed Hayley to try and take Hope away from him, in retaliation Klaus kills his girlfriend Gia, and daggered him with Papa Tunde's Blade, their relationship becomes estranged/broken after this, as they both want nothing to do with each other any more.
Rebekah Mikaelson
- "I only came to New Orleans to make sure you were safe. You are. I thought that I might be able to convince you to come with me, but here you are, rushing into whatever Klaus and Marcel and the witches have cooked up. And I finally get it. You'll never leave this city. You'll never leave Klaus."

Elijah and Rebekah
Rebekah is Elijah's younger sister. His relationship with her has been very dysfunctional. Elijah is in the habit of being very critical towards Rebekah due to her actions. After she requests him to give her the cure for the vampirism, Elijah agrees, provided that she go a whole day without her vampire abilities. However, they were tricked by Silas with Klaus' help. After finding out that Klaus is going to be a father, Elijah asks her to follow Klaus and him to New Orleans. She refuses to follow Elijah and help him. Elijah is without a doubt the brother Rebekah respects most out of all her brothers. After 3 months of not hearing anything from Elijah she returns to New Orleans to find Elijah and make sure he's alright. Once she finds him, Elijah tells his sister to protect the wolf carrying Klaus' child, and once he gets home to the Mikaelson mansion he gets a warm welcome from Rebekah. But soon after she tells him that she is leaving town and would ask to come with her, she knows that Elijah would never leave town or Klaus. Unlike Rebekah, Elijah believes that his brother can be redeemed. Elijah also is shown to be very protective of Rebekah, not letting anyone physically harm her. When she is about to be stabbed with Papa Tunde's Blade, he stabs Klaus with it to save Rebekah. He also would not allow Klaus to stake her with the White Oak Stake or harm her in any way.

- —Elijah about losing Hope in From a Cradle to a Grave
- Main article: Elijah and Hope
Hope is Elijah's niece, and he loves her very much. Even before Hope was ready to be birthed, he was the first person to accept the baby. In Always and Forever, he is the one that wanted the baby to be alive and tried to convince Klaus to accept the child. He has sworn to protect her and love her.

- —Katherine to Elijah in American Gothic
- Main article: Elijah and Katherine
Katherine and Elijah
In 1492, Elijah met a woman named Katerina Petrova who was the first doppelgänger of Tatia. Elijah and Katerina got to know each other before he introduced her to his younger brother Niklaus. Klaus wanted her to be sacrificed, but Elijah had started to have feelings for her. When Katerina escaped, Elijah felt betrayed by her and started hunting her down, but was mislead the other way thanks to a vampire named Trevor. 500 years later, Elijah finds her stuck inside the vampire tomb and compelled her to stay. Almost a year later, Katerina contacts Elijah and asks him to help her find the cure. During their search for the cure, their friendship grows to be very strong and eventually they fall deeply in love, therefore beginning a sexual relationship. After Elijah discovered that Katerina killed Jeremy Gilbert, he got mad at her lies. Elijah says that he doesn't know who she really is. Katerina then met with him again and handed him the cure, telling him she loves him and she wanted him to trust her, as she is trusting him. During the episode "The Originals", Katherine asks him to be with her, instead of heading to New Orleans for a life with Klaus. He doesn't say anything except goodbye, and leaves, after kissing her on the forehead. It is unclear whether their relationship will have a future. Even though he was a hallucination in 500 Years of Solitude, Katherine was happy to see him and had shown to have missed him. He presumably does not yet know that Katherine's dead.
Other Relationships

Attitude Toward Humans
Elijah is seen being involved with a human, Celeste.
Elijah respects human life. He is shown to be generally gentle, kind, caring and considerate with humans, the opposite of his half-brother Klaus, who is shown to have little to no regard for human life. He has not been seen compelling a human except Elena as he needed information from her and Carol Lockwood (for a change of suit). As a vampire, he strongly dislikes the idea of feeding on humans and instead feeds from blood bags. Elijah gives Elena an elixir that has a chance to resurrect the person who drinks it. The elixir was meant for Katerina before she escaped, but now he proffered it to Elena, so she could have had a chance to survive after the sacrifice. Esther, Elijah's mother, however, mentions that he is no better than the others, causing him to reflect that he kills, tortures and manipulates others to get what he wants, mainly to protect his family. Esther says this to Elijah and his two brothers Kol and Niklaus, "For a thousand years, I've been forced to watch you. Felt the pain of every victim, suffered while you shed blood. Even you, Elijah, with your claim to nobility, you’re no better. All of you. You’re a curse on this earth. Stretched out over generations." When his brother was entombed, Elijah offered Elena a deal to hand Klaus back to him and, in exchange, no one will harm her. After the loss of his brother (Klaus), Elijah and Rebekah hugged for a few seconds.
Klaus offering Elijah a peace gift through a dead girl.
Once Elijah comes to New Orleans, he goes to the bar at Rosseau's and talks with the bartender Camille, about his brother and his family history. Four months later, after being revived by Davina, a powerful witch, he confesses to her that he has a terrible hunger inside after being in the coffin for 4 months, but would not feed from a child. The day after he comes home, he is seen reading a book while an innocent girl is bleeding out, a peace offering from Klaus. Elijah mentions that his forgiveness cannot be bought and says not "this" when he mentions the dead girl.
