Backstory

In the episode Katerina, we learn about the beginnings of the vampire series fans know as Katherine Pierce. She was born Katerina Petrova in 1473, to a wealthy Bulgarian family. At the age of 16 or 17, she became pregnant with an illegitimate child, thus bringing shame to her family. They took the child and disowned Katerina, banishing her from her home in disgrace. She fled to England, and assimilated herself. In 1492, she met a man named Trevor who introduced her to Lord Elijah Mikelson. Lord Elijah introduced her to his brother, Lord Niklaus Mikelson. Katerina became attracted to Lord Niklaus, but later became fearful of him when she learned he was cursed to be a vampire-werewolf hybrid and wanted to kill her to use her blood to break the curse. When she told Trevor, he told her about a woman named Rose who could help her and distracted the Mikelson brothers to ensure her safe escape. As she fled, she took a moonstone which was very important to Klaus, and an integral part of breaking the curse. Instead of helping Katerina, Rose locked her in a room and notified Klaus of her whereabouts. A desperate Katerina tried to kill herself by stabbing and failed. Rose healed her by feeding Katerina some of her blood, but in a last ditch effort, Katerina hung herself and died with Rose's blood in her system, becoming a vampire in transition. In the midst of trying to save herself she completed her transition by feeding on an old woman. She then tried to return home, but found her entire family slaughtered at the hands of Niklaus. It is unknown exactly what happened in her life from this point until she resurfaced in 1864, with her new friends, the witch Emily Bennett who owed her a debt for saving her family, and Pearl, a woman who worked as an apothecary, along with Pearl's daughter, Anna.

Relationship with the Salvatores

In 1864, Katerina, having renamed herself Katherine Pierce, showed up at the home of Giuseppe Salvatore in Mystic Falls, Virginia. She claimed to be an orphan who had lost her parents in a fire, and was welcomed into his home, where she met and fell in love with his youngest son, Stefan Salvatore. When Stefan's brother Damon returned home after deserting the Civil War, Katherine instantly took a liking to him as well, developing physical relationships with them both but never telling them about each other. She somehow convinced both brothers to drink her blood during these relationships. Stefan was later used against her when Giuseppe forced his son to drink vervain and Katherine bit him, weakening her. Katherine was captured and taken to be killed, but Stefan and Damon went to save her, and were killed in the process, forcing them into transition. Katherine promised Stefan she would escape and find him. She kept an eye on him through the decades.

Throughout the Series

Katherine was the main antagonist (albeit indirectly) for most of seasons 1-2. She has allied with and subsequently killed many people in her quest to stay "alive". Notable kills include her doppelgänger Elena Gilbert's biological father, and Elena's best friend Caroline Forbes.

In season 3-4, she was not featured as much, though she still continued to get in the way, especially when it was revealed that there was a cure for vampirism. At the end of season 4, Katherine engaged in a fight with Elena, during which Elena shoved a pill containing the cure into Katherine's mouth and forced her to bite it.

As season 5 began in October 2013, viewers were shown that the cure did indeed work, as Katherine is seen complaining about being human. It is unknown if she will remain human.

She comes back in the season finale and poses as Elena, kissing Damon, but then she cuts John's (Elena's biological father's) fingers off because of a ring that makes him not die and then she stabs him.

On the tv show, in 1864, they were going to kill by burning all the vampires. So they gathered them up and then put them on a church and then it was on fire. But Emily, a witch, put a spell so that they were protected on a tumb that was below the church. She did this because Damon asked her because he loved Katherine and didnt want her dead.
