The Hollow (real name Inadu) is the main antagonist in the fourth and fifth seasons of The Originals.
She was a Native American witch who created the werewolf curse centuries ago ans is one of the most powerful witches in all of history.

The Hollow/Inadu was portrayed by Blu Hunt and various cast members while possessing their characters' bodies.
Biography[]
Origins[]
Inadu was born on 500 A.D. to a Native American tribe who bestowed her great power throughout her mother's pregnancy, in the hopes of her becoming a symbol of prosperity. Upon her birth, Inadu only craved more and more power, frightening the elders. So the four elders imbued a part of their power into an axe and had Inadu's own mother kill her with it. In her last moments, the girl channeled the power of her death and cursed the tribe to turn into the very creatures that they had used to hunt her down, wolves, creating the werewolf curse. In the next centuries, Inadu's spirit influenced several people to acts of evil, also targeting her own bloodline for destruction and leaving Hayley Marshall as the last survivor of the Labonair family. She was trapped in the Spirit World, until Davina Claire inadvertently let her out by severing the connection between the Ancestral Plane and Earth.
Return to Earth[]
Five years after the demise of the Mikaelson family, the Hollow begins plotting to rise using various acolytes to do her bidding. Dominic revealed to the Mikaelsons that she is planning to resurrect herself for which she needs four pieces of her remains, only two of which have been found. Inadu eventually possessed Sofya, while the Mikaelsons discover that the last of her remains were in Mystic Falls. The Hollow then kills Elijah with thorns created from Marcel's venom, although the bestial vampire manages to exorcise her from Sofya by stabbing the girl in the heart, with a dagger coated in the blood of Hayley (with the blood of the Inadu's own descendants being her only weakness.)

Destruction[]
Five years later, the Hollow's spirit remains split up between the Mikaelsons, forcing them to remain separated and having negative side effects whenever any of them gets too close to each other. Seven years later, Hope managed to remove Inadu's spirit from the Mikaelson family and took her spirit back into her own body. Although Hope managed to regain some control over herself, she remains darkly affected by the Hollow's presence. Eventually, Klaus and Elijah decided to mutually kill each other, using the White Oak stake. So, The Hollow's spirit is finally destroyed.
Legacies[]
In a dream-like alternate reality, The Hollow originally became young Hope's enemy known as Lord Marshall. At the Salvatore Palace, an adult-Hope defeats Lord Marshall and removes its mask, and it is revealed to be Malivore since he is now her enemy in the present. Hope remarks that she knows how to defeat Malivore; she must become the tribrid.
