Aside from White Oak, nothing can kill them.
They are the first vampires, and therefore, the most powerful.
Well, all of that mightve just changed.

And no, its not become an Original a la Alaric inTVDseason 3.
Back in New Orleans, Davina senses something is off when Vincent stands her up at Saint James Infirmary.
Once there, she finds his phone, on which hes recorded a video updating her on everything.
Finn and Elijah will then head off to see if they can track down Lucien.
But when she cant get more specific than that, Kol realizes exactly where Lucien is taking Freya.
After adding one final unknown ingredient, Lucien then hands Vincent Esthers original spell … literally.
And although Vincent tries to resist, the ancestors force him to start work on the spell.
While Vincent works, Lucien and his fantastic hair fills Freya in on his motives.
As he puts it, he decided to become in flesh what I have always been their better.
Hes spent all these years figuring out exactly how to meet that goal.
And when he discovered the prophecy, he knew it was true, because I was its living embodiment.
It is my rise that shall be their downfall.
Is it awful that Ive never been more attracted to Lucien than in this moment?
Im fine with it.
As he puts it, 900 years in a box and zero patience.
It turns out, Finn didnt spend 900 years sleeping.
Once they park the car, Elijah tries to explain to Finn why they daggered him.
You were a danger.
But Finn does some explaining of his own: That box made him that way.
So yeah, I came out mad and I remain so.
Well, its hard to argue with that.
NEXT: Hey, Matt Donovan!
Good one, Matt!
This time around, Klaus has decided to let his brothers handle things while he works with Hayley.
(And apparently, her carpool karaoke skills are quite impressive.)
But if thats the case, why is the vampire dead?
Well get back to that.
Unfortunately we dont have time to play right now.
Ill pass your regards along to Rebekah.
I love that man.
(Really Matt, that was a team effort.
Stop taking the credit.)
Elijah explains the situation to Matt: Theyre here to rescue their sister Freya.
Yes, we have another.
So Matt can either go about his business or suffer violent disembowelment.
But as Matt sees it, what happens in his town is his business.
And when Davinas spell works and Finn sees where Vincent is, theyre all three off.
Lucien is already in possession of the serum by the time the guys show up.
So as far as theyre concerned, Luciens dead.
That was the final step in him becoming a Super Original.
Just as they turn around, Lucien and his red eyes!
are ready for a fight.
Three fun facts about Super Originals: Bullets dont hurt them.
Elijahs punches dont hurt them.
(It heals werewolf bites and they believe Lucien to be a hybrid of some sort.)
Once Hayley finds out whats going on, she tells Klaus to go home and help his brother.
Its worth it to have Finn as an ally.
She will burn down Luciens lab on her own.
(They already saved all the wolves.)
But surely the venom wont work the same on an Original, right?
Returning Finn to the compound, all the siblings surround him as Klaus offers up his blood.
Just then, Finn starts coughing up blood.
After all, hes never wanted this life.
He asks that his siblings dont leave him.
Elijah:You fought against what time and circumstance made you.
Youre free now, Finn.
Kol:I loathed you for centuries, even now it remains unabated.
But I know torment brother, so I hope you somehow find peace in the abyss.
Freya:When you were born, you gave me a gift.
You were my first friend.
Today you gifted me my life and my brothers united, even if for a moment.
Always and forever, brother.
Klaus:Just know that you will be avenged.
What, did you think Klaus would suddenly stop being Klaus?
To be fair, he was also crying.
Back at Saint James Infirmary, Davina asks for Vincents help.
It seems she tested Kols blood and discovered that the ancestors are manipulating him.
His blood is infused with their magic.
Vincent agrees that they need to be stopped.
At the compound, Klaus and Elijah cant figure out what theyre up against when Hayley enters.
Klaus is descended from one of the original seven packs.
Not only that, but Lucien took two vials of the serum from the spell and only drank one.
Just like that, Klaus and Elijah rush to find Aurora, but shes been freed.
