"Mother", as she is called, is an ancient "Royal" vampire who is over 2,400 years old the acknowledged leader of the vampire world (or at the very least, of those in North America). She is portrayed by Deena Aziz.

HistoryEdit

Early LifeEdit

Mother's past is largely a mystery but at one point Mother and Suren were both human as she states in her secret lair with Aidan " I could've cried just to look on her, human mother, human child but then I gave her an eternity." She built her vast empire from the ground up, and was fond of relating the story of her rise to power to her daughter, Suren.

Her daughter was the cause of a ballroom massacre at the Halloway Hotel in the 1930s in which hundreds of people were killed, resulting in her burial for 80 years, but every year Mother passes the anniversary of the massacre to get drunk with blood.

Season 2Edit

She comes to Boston to decide the fate of Aidan and Bishop's "orphaned" vampires. Though Aidan attempts to prevent their demise, she orders that Bishop's excess sires to be culled and Aidan not take his place (as Heggeman and the Dutch wanted), but instead assist her daughter in bringing Boston back under control. Mother promised Aidan freedom from the demands of the council and the vampire community should her daughter succeed. Mother later ordered Heggeman to assassinate Josh, who is a barrier to her plans for Aidan. When Aidan and Suren fulfill the goals Mother set out for them, Mother keeps Suren in her position in Boston, despite her requests, and gives Aidan his freedom by banishing him from the vampire society. After Suren leaves him, Aidan plans to kill Mother with the help of Henry, but she sees through the trap and captures him, presenting him to Suren to kill so she can be her successor. When Suren refuses, Mother stakes her and then commits Aidan to the ground, as Aidan tells her she has just killed the only person who ever loved her, after having been revealed in flashbacks that Suren is her biological daughter from when both were human.

Season 3Edit

In the season 3 premiere, Mother is revealed to have presumably died from the mysterious virus killing all vampires.

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Mother is the most powerful (and thus, probably oldest) vampire seen in the series thus far, both politically and physically.

• Immortality - Mother is over 2,400 years old and maintains the appearance and health of a middle aged woman.

• Superhuman Strength - Mother's advanced age and experience gives her a physical advantage over all vampires seen to date. She is able to decapitate two younger vampires with a simple swipe of her hand.

• Superhuman Speed - Mother can move at blurring speeds that make her appear almost invisible.       

• Compulsion: The ability to influence a human's mind is called "compelling", and while it is an ability that comes naturally with vampirism, it is very difficult to use. It seems that compulsion does not work on werewolves, ghosts and other vampires.

• Endurance: Vampires have far more endurance and stamina than humans. They can run, fight and exert themselves much more and for longer than any human, though they can still get fatigued and even knocked out.
•   Augmented Healing: Vampires can take a lot of punishment and will heal quite quickly, but not instantly as shown when Aidan still had a round mark after being impaled. The healing speed and effectiveness is improved if the vampire feeds on living blood from a human. Henry, for example, needed to feed from two humans to regrow his skin.
