As a human, her name was Katerina Petrova, and she came from Bulgaria. She is what The Originals call a Petrova doppelganger, a human that can be sacrificed to break the curse that binds the vampires to the night. Before she could be sacrificed, a vampire took pity on her and helped her by turning her into a vampire. Katerina soon fled Europe altogether, moving to America. Before her arrival at Mystic Falls in 1864, she changed her name to Katherine Pierce. Black-haired and brown-eyed, she appears very sweet and seductive on the surface, but her personality could change in an instant into someone who was impulsive and, at times, not very nice. The Vampire Katherine Pierce entered the lives of Damon and Stefan Salvatore in 1864, during the last throes of the American Civil War. She arrived at the Salvatore Boarding House, Travelling as an orphan with her Handmaid, Emily Bennet. Using her powers of mind control, she had soon compelled both brothers to fall completely in love with her. Unfortunately it was Stefan's love that inadvertently led her to banishment from Mystic falls. When the Founders' Council entombed twenty-seven vampires in the church, Damon believed that Katherine was one of those who had been trapped. He struck a bargain Emily, asking that she cast a spell to safely protect those vampires who had been entombed. In return he vowed to protect all of her descendants. For over 100 years, Damon waits for the chance to open the tomb and free his love. But when that time comes, it seems that Katherine was never trapped at all and has been free to be with Damon – but she has chosen not to find him. She does not love him. But she comes crawling back to mystic fall's posing as Elena and kisses Damon! Has Katerina Patrova's Obsession with the Salvatore Brothers ended or has it only just begun?
