Whispers  upon  dying  wind  claim  TOM HARDY  is  walking  around  Mystic  Falls  but  it’s  probably  ANSEL  ( OF  THE )  NORTH  ( EAST  ATLANTIC  PARK )  &  FORTY  from  THE  ORIGINALS.  I  wouldn’t  worry  too  much  as  they’re  only  an  ORIGINAL  WEREWOLF  which  makes  them  CHARISMATIC  &  STUBBORN.  Rumour  has  it  that  they  are  often  heard  humming  FEELING  GOOD  —  MUSE.

Born to Berold and Matilda. Parents once made a deal with a witch, promising her their firstborn in exchange for wealth. When they didn’t deliver, the witch cursed their child to suffer a painful transformation every full moon, taking inspiration from legend of The Hollow. Because of this, he was kept isolated, confined to the house. 

Fled to America after he killed his father in self-defence. Created his own settlement on the land of Mystic Falls, building it with his own hands.

The rest is as canon says up until Ansel’s resurrection. In a turn of events, Esther brought Ansel back with Original strengths. She didn’t want him to be caught off guard again like he was with Mikael.. Because of this, he’s a lot harder to kill and didn’t actually die like Klaus believed. However, the showdown did make Ansel realise Klaus wasn’t ready (and may never be ready) for him to be in his life. He retreated to the shadows, watching over the Mikaelson family from afar, but allowing them to believe he was gone.

Noticed the change when he was pulled through and merged into a new timeline. Originally hated being back in Mystic Falls because it reminded him of himself and his family being slaughtered, but eventually, managed to rebuild. Found a cabin in the woods not far from his previous tribe. He lives there while running the local autoshop, called Wolf’s Wheels. Ansel developed a great curiosity and love for cars after being brought back to life, and used it as a distraction. 

Managed to find the North East Atlantic Pack, as well as finding new wolves to join, and protects them as their Alpha.

Klaus isn’t his only heir. Ansel also had several children with his wife, though most of them were murdered by Mikael right in front of him. Only one survived, continuing on the bloodline. Ansel adored his family and, for a while, adored his wife. Unfortunately, his wife wasn’t a wolf. After a particularly rough transformation, he injured her. Unable to forgive himself, their relationship never truly survived. And then Ansel met Esther.

Ansel has mastered the art of controlling his inner wolf. It took a lot of trauma, magic and pain, but he knew he had to after what happened to his wife. He knew it even more when one of his own took Henrik Mikaelson at such a young age. Now, after all these years, he remains in control even while in wolf form. Ansel is fully in touch with both his human side and his wolf side, embracing both with pride.

clifnotes on henrik mikaelsons background

talking about henrik this is a very very very wip version of henrik’s bio. ( i have linked it on my muse page but also want to post it on the dash so some of you see )   but i wanted to at least have something for now linked with henrik on this blog bc he is a character that needs it.  this will not make any sense to anyone who aren’t at least somewhat familiar with him…i am very sorry for that this is the very very very short notes of this bio. i have an longer version on my old blog over here  although it is to be noted that there are differences like the fact that he was born in norway and that henrik’s magic was triggered the night he died in the current version

henrik was born in norway not in mystic falls bc fuck canon.

it was henrik’s suggestion to go out to see the wolves the night he died.

henrik’s magic triggered the night he died right before he died.

henrik dies and as right before he died he triggered his magic he was no longer human but instead supernatural and in turn went to the other side.

none of his family knew henrik had magic or triggered it before he died. they thought he was human and died as such.

on the otherwise henrik watch his family just destroy so many lives and also their own. this went on for around a 1000 years

untill in the 90´s some witch on the otherside realized they could use him so they brought him back to life as a errands boy for the other side.

henrik was raised in a coven deeply connected to the other side and was used as a tool for balance until the day the other side fell.

no one in the coven knew who he was in relation to his siblings, no one really over all except the dead and henrik himself knew about how his siblings were still alive.

henrik can talk to the dead and has been able to since he was brought back

henrik when the otherside fell just basically kept on with the same thing and manged to find ends meet by helping other witches out with favors.
