Elijah Mikaelson

Elijah Mikaelson is an Original Vampire and the deuteragonist of the Vampire Diaries spin-off, The Originals. He was an antagonist turned anti-hero of the Vampire Diaries, as he was aiding the Mystic Falls Gang into stopping Klaus.

Elijah is far different from his half-brother, Niklaus.

While Klaus is violent, manipulative and sadistic, Elijah is unpredictable yet friendly, caring, kind and compassionate yet he is also moral. Even though he is moral, Elijah still has his vampire flaws. Elijah is known for being Klaus' best friend turned enemy an back again and mostly being in Klaus' shadow.

Elijah is the first one to accept Klaus' child Hope, and saw Hope as chance for his family to be redeemed. Elijah is known for being Klaus' confidant, partner-in-crime and right-hand man yet he isn't Klaus' puppet and Elijah has a dysfunctional turned loving and supportive relationship with his sister, Rebekah.

These traits make Elijah the most neutrally good character in the Originals.

Personality
Elijah is unpredictable yet kind, moral, compassionate, caring, kind and selfless as he always puts himself first before others yet he can be cruel when he is disrespected and doesn't have tolerance for anyone who disrespects him and he'll make sure that they'll suffer (similar to Niklaus).
