Aurora was born in the early 11th century into a noble French family, a daughter of Count de Martel. She had a troubled childhood, battling mental health conditions like bipolar disorder, depression, and low self-esteem, exacerbated by her mother's death during childbirth. Her family's castle was visited by Niklaus, Elijah, and Rebekah Mikaelson in disguise. Aurora and Klaus fell in love, but their secret affair was eventually revealed. After hearing negative things about Klaus, Elijah, driven by anger, compelled Aurora to break Klaus's heart. Aurora's love for Klaus led her to attempt suicide to become a vampire and be with him forever. Rebekah, though left to heal her, became the one to turn Aurora into the first vampire of her sireline. When the Mikaelsons were eventually forced to flee, Elijah compelled Aurora, Tristan, and Lucien to believe they were the Mikaelsons, creating a century-long deception to mislead Mikael. When the Mikaelsons were daggered by The Brotherhood of the Five, the compulsion broke, leading to the trio's deep-seated hatred for the Mikaelsons. This led to the "Trinity," the original vampires of the De Martel and Castle family lines, who sought revenge against the Mikaelsons for the century they lost. Aurora de Martel was a recurring character in the third season of The Originals and later in the seventh season of The Vampire Diaries. After Aurora de Martel's death in the episode "This Can Only End in Blood," the De Martel family became extinct.
