Marcel Gerard

When Esther created the Original Vampires, we know that she added to the spell a mystical bond that would kill all the vampires created by the Originals if any of them died. The thing is, this link is a separate spell from Esther's Immortality Spell, or is intrinsically part of the Spell?

And if it's part of the Immortality Spell, does that mean that Alaric also had a Sireline Link to whom he transformed? And Marcel too?

Since Hope triggered her vampire side, so many assumptions have been made by FANS and not creator’s of the show. One of them being she has the strength of an Original, which is FALSE. Hope’s vampire side is her weakest side, everyone knows strength comes with AGE, when Katherine was turned she didn’t automatically gain the strength of a 500 year old vampire, it was given to her over time. Same can be said for ALL The Original Vampires and normal vampires. People say Hope is stronger than all The Originals and any other ancient Vampire. Witchcraft wise that is true, her magic is what makes her deadly but strength wise Hope isn’t that powerful. I’m just annoyed with seeing people say she can subdue people like Rebekah or Kol or even Marcel for that matter with just her strength when we all know that’s not how vampirism works.

Before you attack me take this into consideration. In S4 of Legacies at the carnival when Hope meets the ancient Vampire he tells her “You find out how hard it is to fight someone centuries older than you” to which she replies “that might be a little PROBLEM for me if i only were a creature of the night” meaning if she didn’t have her witchcraft powers he would’ve subdued her. Secondly before you attack me, in S4 again on the last episode Hope’s witchcraft was disabled against Aurora, forcing her into hand to hand combat which she ultimately FAILED because Aurora subdued her and cut her with red oak TWICE.

Let’s not forget Hope literally had to get the staff out of Auroras hands just to finally get the upper hand by using MAGIC obviously.

This goes to show without her magic, Hope doesn’t really have any other forms of fighting, unless the vampire is a freshly turned then she would definitely subdue them. If she honestly had the strength and skills of an Original, She would’ve fought that Carnival vampire without magic, she would’ve subdued Aurora in 0.5 seconds andd might i add she would’ve heard Rebekah coming from behind her with the dagger in 4x05. I love Hope, i do but this is something the entire fandom needs to accept. She can compel people because her father was an Original, that doesn’t mean she has equal strength to an Original as well. If you want to prove me wrong then by all means, go ahead but if you’re not coming with facts like i just did then don’t come at ALL.

So I'm on season 4 of Vampire Diaries and I've noticed a potentially major plot hole with the Originals. If Charlotte was truly in New Orleans (for any amount of time) since 1942 wouldn't Marcel have found her and either recruited her or killed her? I get that she still would have found Damon and that would've all played out the same, but what about all that time between 1942 and 2010? Obviously the Harvest hadn't happened yet so Davina couldn't track when witches were doing magic, but Marcel still would've been running New Orleans and he always made it seem like it was his job to know when new vampires came to town. So wouldn't he have know about Charlotte?

sharing the same abilities as an original vampire he could compel anyone(except for another original by himself), cant be killed by a wooden stake, and can’t die from wolf venom. The spell used was the same one Esther used on her kids(but tweaked of course). So if the basis is the same but just better does that mean he can create a sire line of his own? Same goes for Lucien and Alaric-especially for Alaric since he went from human-enhanced original not vampire-upgraded original and yes I know Alaric wouldn’t have but the question is could he have

Marcel still being alive means that he can possibly turn people when he feels he needs to and be their sire

In A Tale of Two Wolves, they made it seem like a White Oak stake was the only thing that could kill an Original. However, if they coated a regular stake with Marcel's Upgraded venom, could that have killed Klaus as well?

So I’ve been seeing a lot of people say that Julie and the team working on Legacies is making Hope really weak and I don’t agree with that! Firstly she is still a young witch and wolf who is still learning the extent of her powers and abilities. Secondly she isn’t a vampire yet, when she turns I velvet that they will make her a lot more powerful considering she is now a FULLY activated Tribrid. I don’t get why people get so mad about it, I mean sure she’s a Mikealson but she has no one around atm to teach what that is about, Rebekah and Marcel and somewhere that isn’t MF or NOLA, Kol and Davina (I’m assuming) are travelling and Keelin and Freya have their own kid to worry about, so everyone just needs to chill out on bashing Hopes Strength.

People like to trash on Hayley, but she really got the worst end of the deal every single time. Don’t get me wrong Klaus often did too, but only after doing something stupid that ensured it to be that way. Klaus has no one to blame but himself for all the misery that came his way. He woke up most mornings, dang near all of them, and chose violence. Hurt and ruined so many families. Yes we love them, the original siblings, because they are the main characters, and he has tried to redeem himself a couple of times. But he is still a serial killer. He’s still a bad “person”. Who eventually did right. What did Haley do wrong? She slept with the wrong guy in a bad choice hook up, got pregnant, and only ever tried to protect her baby. She never tried to be queen of anything, she became queen of the wolves to protect hope, she was never power hungry, she never sacrificed her family for power, she just wanted to love hope and keep her safe. And she died doing that very thing. Elijah swore he’d protect hope to his dying breath and instead let her mother be killed protecting some kid he never even met. And would’ve let Hope die too. Hayley would have given up everything to do the one thing she was trying to do from the very start, protect hope. She wanted to leave New Orleans at every chance possible but no Klaus had to stay and make the city his and have power, be a king. This is the exact reason that no matter how this show would’ve played out, him and marcel would’ve always been miserable. They can’t let it go. If Klaus had listened to Hayley even once, they would all still be a family. And Hope would have her mom.

Again I dont see people talk about this much but what are your solutions on how to help these three cause to me they are the only students at the school with problems, maybe jade and wendy added but idk what their futures are so ill go with the ones who will stick around.

Mgs problem is his bloodlust but clearly what they are doing isnt helping and honestly this is I guess a continued problem that started in tvd and never had payoff

but here are my options and 1 of them helps both sides:

mg can practice some mediation thing to use mind over matter and control around the blood

this one would help if I knew it would stick but simply ask rebekah, kol or marcel to compel him to not go crazy around the blood, only problem is rebekah and maybe kol and marcel is taking the cure so when they would lose the vampire side it would break the link to mg, maybe put another anchor in place

find a spell on how to help him which can also help josie and lizzie, find a spell from someone to take away the lust and on the twins side prevent the merge

lastly the easiest methods is for one or both twins to siphon off mg and make him human but that would defeat the purpose you know and do reverse i guess for the twins and make one or both into heretics

So am I the only one that sort of shipped Matt and Nadia. I thought they were real cute together and wish they went more into it and explored them more. I also shipped him and Rebekah more than Rebekah and Marcel but that’s another story.

When Davina dies does everyone come back to life? Also when Marcel saved Davina did he fail on everyone else?
