Francis Gibson is the grandson of Azreal, spouse of Alexandria Salvatore, father in-law to Cyrus Salvatore and Kaitlyn Gibson as well as the biological father to Darius Salvatore, Skylar Salvatore, Sabrina Salvatore, and Dante Salvatore. He is also an Immortal Werewolf and key member of The Gibson as well as Salvatore Family.
Early Life[]
Growing up Francis was the son of an Unnamed Mikaelson who was the father of Esther Mikaelson, making Francis her half-sister. At a young age he was groomed to become the leader of The Gibson Family Pack. When he was old enough he would take the position of leader and would become highly respected within the pack.
Becoming Immortal[]
Because of his aid in helping the survivors of Werewolf attacks Francis would be gifted with Immortality by multiple witches. Despite not asking for Immortality, they believed that they were doing a favour and paying back nature with giving Francis Immortality. They do this by performing an advanced spell on him, before stabbing him in the heart (ending his life as a mortal). Francis after this would become known as an "Immortal Werewolf" and he would be able to turn others into werewolves, either by biting them, if he bites said person and then kills them, or by giving them his blood and they die with it in their systems. He would do this not long after becoming a Werewolf and this would lead to the creation of Francis' Bloodline (a figurative bloodline of Werewolves and Hybrids.
Leaving his pack[]
Francis would leave his pack in 991 A.D and would go to the lands of what would later become known as modern-day Jamaica. This was possibly attributed to stress he faced as having to be leader, and due to others catching on to how he failed to age.
Meeting Alexandria[]
In 1019 Francis meets Alexandria Salvatore and the two engage in romantic relations not long after this leading to the birth of Francis' children.
Second Death[]
When Kaitlyn Gibson came back from the norwegian crusade and awoke as a Transitioning Vampire, she would accidentally bite into Francis and would kill him. Francis then self-resurrects and helps Kaitlyn cope with Vampirism.
Third Death[]
It is unknown what lead to his third death.
Fourth Death[]
In order to get revenge for the harsh way that Francis treated him as a child, Darius Salvatore (son of Francis), would kill Francis by stabbing him in the heart during the late 14th Century. Darius realising what he's done and gives Francis his blood in order to heal him. What conspired after this was that the blood mixed with Francis' werewolf blood and made Francis into an "Immortal Hybrid". Not even a minute later Francis would awake and would kill an unnamed women, solidifying his transformation into an "Immortal Hybrid".
Personality[]
As a Werewolf Francis prefered to resolve issues by talking through them rather than encouraging conflict and risking bloodshed, as well as properly investigating before making rash decisions. However, he is not past facing off adversaries and does not hesitate to punish those who cross a line, even if they mean something to him. According to Alexandria he was a very kind-hearted and loving man, though when his kids mentioned him they saw him as slightly better than their mother in comparison. Darius, specifically despised him the most and hated him. He is irritated by people poking their noses where they shouldn't, and when people risk the lives of others thoughtlessly, Luke will resort to force if it means stopping someone from doing something he disagrees with or believes that will put too much at risk. Also with Being the leader of his pack, Luke maintains an air of authority and control. He also has paternal instincts towards his youngest daughter (Kaitlyn Gibson).
When becoming an Immortal Werewolf he was scared of his Immortality. The mere thought of being unable to permanently die no matter the circumstance (presumably) scared Francis. He could not comprehend never being able to die like he expected that he would as a regular Werewolf. With becoming Immortal this would only cause his Darius to grow and even deeper and greater resentment of him even more.
As an Immortal Hybrid Francis almost struggled to keep his composure with his Vampiric emotions being amplified to a larger degree. Francis also showed that he had a significant emotional and mental change, and is practically a completely different person from his Werewolf-self.
