Bio
Geneva Mikaelson was born to Esther and Desert Wolf in a small village that would eventually become known as Mystic Falls, but was raised by her step-father Mikael, both believing he was her true father. Geneva has six half-siblings fathered from her step-father Mikael, Freya, Finn, Elijah, Kol, Rebekah and Henrik, and a half-sibling via her mother, Niklaus.
Geneva first shifted into a coyote when she was eight years old, Esther taught her to control this as well as blocked her enhanced strength and speed with a necklace, much like she had done with Niklaus.
When Niklaus and Henrik went to see the wolves transform, Henrik was killed by one of the transformed werewolves. Devastated at the loss of another child, Mikael convinced Esther to use her magic to protect their remaining children. Upon Mikael's request, Esther performed a spell, called The Immortality Spell, which transformed Geneva, her siblings, and her step-father into Original Vampires, the first vampire's to exist, and progenitors to the vampire species.
When Niklaus made his first human kill, his werewolf gene was activated and he became a vampire and werewolf hybrid, thus revealing Esther's infidelity. Soon after becoming a Hybrid, Mikael had Elijah help him restrain Niklaus, and Esther used her Dark Magic to place a curse on Niklaus by binding it to Geneva's coyote form. Forcing Niklaus' werewolf side to lie dormant, and Geneva to permanently live in her coyote form.
