Klaus

Klaus is one of the Original Vampires. If that didn’t make him tough enough he is also a hybrid! His mother was a vampire and his father a werewolf.

His werewolf side was suppressed though until he performed a ritual where he killed Jenna, a werewolf and Elena (Elena was brought back of course). Now he can access both his vampire and werewolf sides. He is nearly impossible to kill.

Season 3 finds him running around with Stefan trying to make more hybrids and running from a vampire who just happens to hunt vampires!
