Katherine talks to George.

George Lockwood was an American Solider who fought in the Civil War in 1864. After killing in battle, George unknowingly triggered his werewolf curse, causing him to transform into a wolf every full moon. After discovering his true identity, Katherine Pierce convinced George to help her escape during the vampire-hunt the town was planning.

George helps Katherine escape.

According to Katherine, George Lockwood used the vampires as a scapegoat for the attacks he was responsible for and informed the Founder's Council about the vampires in Mystic Falls. One day in 1864 George warned Katherine about the round up and when it was supposed to take place. Katherine insisted that before the Church was set ablaze, the body count must be 27, the vampire population of the town including herself. George said he would see to it. However Katherine had no intention of dying in the Church, and convinced George to helping her escape in exchange of the Moonstone.

Since George went to war without even knowing his family was cursed, it is likely that it was Katherine herself who informed him of The Sun and Moon Curse and of the importance of the Moonstone in the ritual.

Name

George is of Greek origin, and the meaning is "farmer".
