We’re fascinated with origin stories over here at YA and The Originals is our new favorite show to get into it. Set up in The Vampire Diaries, Niklaus Mikaelson (Joseph Morgan) is identified as The Original Hybrid. He is the son of an unnamed werewolf, and Esther. Klaus was one of the main antagonists in seasons 2-4 of TVD, and he is the lead and center of The Originals. Little is known about the werewolf side of his family, but as one of the main storylines has shown, he is the father of a yet to be born Hybrid Child.
Klaus is extremely powerful and was able to break a thousand-year-old curse, which afforded him an opportunity to liberate his werewolf side and strive to create a vampire-werewolf super race hybrid. During his search for a way to break the curse, Klaus hunted down his family and eliminated them. Clearly, loyalty is not high on Klaus’s list of priorities. Klaus is played by the super-talented Joseph Morgan, and stands alone as one of the great characters on TV right now.
His unique background and intense powers has us asking…who is best for Klaus? Who would be a formidable companion to this dominating creature? Some possibilities…

Hayley – She is a werewolf and already pregnant with the Hybrid Child. So there’s that.
Camille – Klaus has a soft spot for her and she can use her psychology training to help him sort through his many issues. Plus, she can mix a mean drink!
Caroline – She understands Klaus’s connection to the Salvatores / Vampire Diaries family better than anyone.
Nobody? – He is Klaus, after all…Moody, intense, and a Hybrid. Maybe he’s better off alone.
