Powers and Abilities
She has the ability to fight and defend herself against vampires , as Alaric and Damon trained her.
At present, Elena is the only cure. Because her blood, if consumed by someone affected by Qetsiyah’s immortality magic, the person who receives it will become the cure, and she will be declared a mortal being aging as humans.
As long as she doesn’t die of blood loss during her human life, she possesses an extra life, just like video games. Elena is also blessed with the powers of doppelgängers, which means that her blood can be used to perform various spells, including the spell of stripping magic.
Her blood is an unlimited supply of energy for witches and siphoners. She eventually, in the end, becomes a vampire and has the same power and abilities as an unoriginal vampire like Damon and Stefan.
