Rebekah

N/A

Over 1000 years old. Appears to be in her late teens.
Species:
Origional vampire
Played By:
Claire Holt
Appearance:
Rebekah has a pale complexion which is free from any blemishes and damage and is soft to the touch. She maintains the youthful appearance of a nineteen year old girl, but of course she is anything but. She big bright blue eyes which she enhances with the use of mascara and a little eye liner. The original vampire also has long, blonde hair which she wears in many different styles. Sometimes she will allow it to hang loose in soft waves, other times it will simply be poker straight, and on the odd occasion she may even wear it up. Rebekah is also a fan of plaits whether they are a simple one, French or fishtails.
Rebekah’s style normally changes to suit whatever era she is currently living in. She likes the clean cut styles and elegant and classic pieces. She may be a vampire, but she is certainly a girly girl when it comes to her appearance and enjoys looking good. Whatever the day or occasion, Rebekah always looks immaculate. Rebekah favours high heels but can sometimes be seen in cute flats.
Personality:
Rebekah has a very mixed and complicated personality. Her emotions are spontaneous and one minute she can be acting one way, and then her mood can suddenly change and she will act the complete opposite. Depending on what her relationship is to someone depends on what side of her personality she lets them see most of.
The original vampire knows she is attractive and has an extremely competitive nature, particularly with other females. As far as she is concerned she always wants to be the one that comes out on top. She likes all eyes to be on her, and if there not then she is likely to kick off. She enjoys being the centre of attention and does not take kindly to anyone who tries to steal her limelight.
Rebekah is used to getting what she wants and does not like it when things don’t go her way. She tends to have temper tantrums whenever she feels like it and can act like a total spoilt brat at times. The blonde is not exactly bothered who gets hurt if someone is standing in the way of her plans. Rebekah has a very short fuse and can lose her temper quite easily as it does not take much to infuriate her.
All that being said, Rebekah also has a very sweet side to her. She is incredibly loyal and puts a lot of trust in those that she loves and does not tend to give up on them easily. Unlike a lot of vampires, she has the ability to show her emotions and is able to cry and feel emotional pain just as much as anyone. At times she finds it a little difficult to play the big bad vampire and keep up the hard, not caring act that she knows she’s meant to. When it comes to her family, Rebekah feels a little at loss of what to believe when everybody is telling her different stories.

---- HISTORY
((Taken from Wiki))
Rebekah is the daughter of Mikael and Esther, wealthy land owners from Eastern Europe. She is one of seven siblings, including Elijah, Niklaus, Henrik, Kol, and Finn. Not much is known about Rebekah's early life, other than she was born in the New World, where they lived in peace among the Werewolves for twenty years. However, during a full moon, when the Wolves were transforming, Klaus and his youngest brother Henrik snuck out to watch the wolves transform for the full moon.
As the sun begins to rise, we see Klaus carrying Henrik's lifeless body back into the village. It seems that one of the wolves had attacked Henrik accidentally during their transformation. Not wanting to lose another child, their mother Esther (The Original Witch) cast a spell, calling upon the Sun for life and the White Oak tree for immortality. However, the spell also called for some untimely acts. Unbeknownst to Rebekah and her siblings, they drank wine laced with blood for dinner, and afterwards, Mikael stabbed them in the heart with his sword. Upon thier awakening, Mikael forced his children to feed on a local villager, finalizing their transition into vampires. Later, they began to realize their new gift had its weaknesses. The flowers that grew at the base of the white oak tree (vervain) burned them and prevented compulsion. The sun burned their skin, making it impossible to walk in the day light. They were also unable to enter the homes of their neighbors without an invitation. Realizing that a stake made from the white oak tree would be fatal to them, they burned the tree to the ground. They also found that blood was essential to their life, and they would need to continually feed to stay strong. After their mother died Rebekah, Niklaus and Elijah swore to one another they would never turn on each other.
1400's
It can be assumed that Rebekah was in England with Elijah and Klaus during this time, as they promised to stick together as one, though she may have gone separate ways from them.
1920s
Moving from town to town and wreaking havoc, Rebekah and Klaus found themselves in Chicago during the roaring 20's. After her introduction to Stefan Salvatore, Rebekah took an immediate liking to him. Not long after, Mikael arrives in the city searching for Klaus, with intent to kill him. Klaus is ready to abscond to the next town, but Rebekah refuses, telling him she wants to stay with Stefan. Her brother forces her to choose between he and Stefan, and when she opts for the latter, he proceeds to neutralize her with white oak ash and a dagger. For about 90 years, Rebekah's neutralized body is carted around in a coffin by Klaus, along with her other siblings until she is re-awakened.
---- ROLE PLAY SAMPLE
Rebekah was hanging around the entrance to the high school in the hope of catching a glimpse of Stefan just as he walked in – that’s if he decided to show up at school at all today. The blonde was incredibly bored of being stood at her half-brothers side day in, day out and seeing as she had been in what had felt like an incredibly deep sleep for god knows how many years, she wanted to at least go out and attempt to have some sort of a normal life. Not to mention the fact she was eager to see what this decade had to bring – If she managed to stay alive this time.
Of course Rebekah was angry that Klaus has staked her and left her for dead all these years, but what was done was done. She couldn’t help but wonder however how her life may have turned out to be if she hadn’t have been shut up in a coffin for so long. Would her and Stefan have been together properly for the rest of eternity? Or would Katherine’s doppelganger Elena still have managed to worm her way into the Salvatore’s heart?
Pulling a handy little mirror from out of her tan coloured hand bag, Rebekah held it up in front of her face, admiring her features. She dug her hand into the back pocket of her jeans and pulled out a tube of pink gloss. Carefully she unscrewed the top and swiped the stick across her lips, briefly rubbing them together. Throwing everything back into her bag, Rebekah gripped onto it tightly as she turned her blonde head to watch as Caroline Forbes sauntered into school.
A small smirk slid onto Rebekah’s lips. Caroline was a lot like Rebekah in some respects – she too was a vampire, not as powerful mind but a vampire none the less, her hair was the same bright blonde colour, and she too was a very competitive person. The girl was head of the cheerleading squad, a hit with the guys, and queen of the high school. Rebekah of course had every intention of stealing the teen’s thunder and replacing her on top.
Pushing Stefan to the back of her mind, Rebekah flicked her hair behind her shoulder and made her way forwards into the school grounds. She made a point of waltzing past Caroline and gave a flirty smile to a group of guys in the corner who had previously been ogling the other vampire. Rebekah glanced back to flash an annoyingly sweet smile in Caroline’s direction before she headed into the school building, ready to see what the day brought.
