Davina and Marcel from The Originals are in front of a gothic church window.
Summary Despite my love for the dysfunctional Mikaelson family, some of The Originals’ villains and antagonists had such solid logic and backstories that I found myself secretly rooting for them to win. Like my fans of The Vampire Diaries, I transitioned over the watching The Originals after the backdoor pilot in season 4 of the predecessor. Since then, I’ve watched The Originals more times than I can count.
Of course, I never want the Mikaelsons to die because that means the end of The Originals, but Lucien’s desire for revenge makes sense. In the past, his closest confidant, Niklaus, repeatedly lied to Lucien about his relationship with Aurora. After that, Niklaus turned Lucien into a vampire against his will, and then Elijah compelled him to go on the run, believing himself to be Niklaus.
As such, I have always rooted for Aurora, despite her being a villain, because I want her to get revenge and break free from the people who trapped her in the cycle of abuse. She deserves so much better than the Mikaelsons and her brother Tristan. Her redemption in Legacies makes me unbelievably happy as it allows her to move past the shackles of toxic relationships for a while. Unfortunately, she falls under the thumb of Ken, another toxic lover, only realizing her mistake at the last moment.
4 Freya Mikaelson A Long-Lost Sibling Who Fears Her Captor Though she eventually shifts into a protagonist role, Freya Mikaelson starts out as an antagonist who is willing to do anything to stop her captor, Aunt Dahlia, from returning. In all honesty, I completely understand her perspective. She only wants to hurt others when it’s necessary to keep her abuser away. Dahlia had stolen Freya, forced her into servitude, and used her power.
3 Kol Mikaelson The Mikaelson Brother Who's Treated Like Dirt Close Besides Freya, Kol Mikaelson is my favorite of the Mikaelson siblings, despite The Originals introducing him as an antihero who verges on a villain. His ire towards Niklaus is completely reasonable, since his brother runs around boasting “always and forever” while daggering his siblings.
