Rebekah...

Rebekah.Back in the days when she wasn't an Original yet

Oh Rebekah...Maybe one of my favorite villains.I like her style,her accent and in my opinion no matter how much i think about it i can't find a better actress to be her than Clair Holt.
Rebekah is one of the originals.She's half-sister of Klaus,Finn,Elija,Henrik and Kole.Her mother is Esther and her father's Mikael.She was kept in a coffin for decades,but not for as much time as the rest of the family had,since she's Klaus' favorite sibling and he kept her along for company.
Back in 1922 she was in love with Stefan,or The Ripper as he was known.They had met him in Chicago, while running from Mikael who by then was a vampire hunter,trying to kill all his kids to save the world from the abomination his wife had created.Rebakah has been decieved innumerous times from Klaus.He lied to her about the murder of their mother,he stabbed her with a white oak tree stake when she chose Stefan over him and then erased his memory so that he wouldn't remember anything about them..He kept her in a coffin for decades.

Rebekah nowadays

She might seem to be harsh and cruel but i wouldn't get her wrong.I mean the woman has been decieved so many times by her own brother,it's only legid that she sometimes acts non lady-like but to me she has all the right reasons to do that.I like the fact that she's a very strong woman,a quality you'd expect that from a woman her age(ouch) amongst others.If anyone would ask me what i'd think the Original sister would look like before i saw her on season 3 i'd say since she's Klaus' lil sis she's difinately gonna be cruel as hell,heartless,cold,mean and bitchy.Well and i wouldn't be much wrong,would i?But now that i've watched her act it'd be a shame not to add to all these not good characteristics some nice ones too.For starters,she is not completly heartless.Yes,she's cruel but we see her hurt when she finds out about her brother's lies and acts against their family.Then when she was used by Damon,even though she would never admit it she was devastated.That's why she tortured him.She's also sensitive,especially when it comes to family bonds and relatioships.As we saw on episode 17 she decides to release Damon when she sees how Stefan reacts when he has to choose between his brother and his only weapon against originals(or so called weapon since they found out that if they kill all the originals they'd die too but anyways).In my opinion this scene was a very touchy-feely one.I would never expect she'd let him go just like that just because "the Salvatores would do anything for each other".
In my opinion she a very misunderstood character.I expect more of her and i'd like to see her do even more or i just hope she will...

 That's what you get when you mess with the wrong Original Damon...ouch

ps : i hope she won't die anytime soon...right now she spikes up the show!
