Welcome back to Humor Nation. When the Vampire Rose revealed about the Originals to Elena and the Salvatores, the viewers knew they are in for a treat. The Originals are probably the most learned antagonists in the Vampire Diaries. Their popularity can be understood from the mere fact that in certain episodes the appearance of Klaus and Elijah overshadowed Stefan and Damon. As the show progressed, we learned about the true beginnings of the Originals Family, going back to the 11th Century. The Mikaelson Family wasn’t a born family of vampires, but they were actually humans who transformed into the vampires. When the youngest of the family Henrik was spotted by the werewolves who were transforming, they harmed him mortally. Mikael fearing the safety of their remaining children, knowing the werewolves would come after them, he convinced Esther to use his magic to turn the children into something powerful. This is when the Original Vampires were born.
